Aunt Xue's face changed immediately.
Saint Heir??!
She looked at the handsome youth, incredulous:
"You... are the Demon Path's Saint Heir?!"
Bai Zisheng and Bai Zixi both had serious expressions on their faces.

Only Mo Hua looked confused.
What on earth is a Saint Heir?
Bai Zixi knew he didn't understand, so she quietly explained:
"The master of the Demon Sect, self-proclaimed Demon Monarch, refers to the ones who are eligible to succeed as the Demon Monarch as Saint Heirs..."
"The Saint Heirs compete against each other, and the final victor will become the next Demon Monarch."
"Most Saint Heirs have extraordinary bloodlines and talents, and they cultivate the most orthodox Demon Sect Cultivation Techniques. Despite their young age, their statuses in the Demon Sect are extremely high."
Mo Hua took another look at the "Saint Heir" in front of him.
He really wasn't old, probably around twenty or so, and his Cultivation was already very high, at least Foundation Establishment, and possibly even Golden Core.
He was dressed in crimson finery, his skin was pale, and his appearance handsome yet demonic. His pupils were cold and arrogant, with an archaic blood stain between his brows.
In this group, only this youth had a blood stain between his eyebrows.
Could this be the mark of a "Saint Heir"?
As Mo Hua sized up the Saint Heir, the Saint Heir was also looking at him.
Liao Tiande whispered something in his ear, and the Saint Heir smiled faintly, pointing at Mo Hua and said:
"This kid, leave him behind for me!"
Bai Zisheng and the others were somewhat taken aback.
Mo Hua was even more puzzled, why did this effeminate demon single him out, wanting him to stay behind?
Aunt Xue pulled Mo Hua behind her and said firmly:
"We are from the Bai Family..."
"I know you're from the Bai Family..."
The Saint Heir sneered, "You're from the Bai Family, and the siblings next to you are from the Bai Family's core lineage, so I gave you some face."
"You may leave, but that kid..."
The Saint Heir sneered, "He must stay behind!"
Aunt Xue frowned, "You want Mo Hua to stay behind, what for?"
"Nothing much..." The Saint Heir's eyes, full of ambition, "I want to meet Mr. Zhuang, but I need some leverage in hand, and his little disciple here is just right."
Mo Hua finally understood, they wanted to capture him to use as leverage against his master!
Bai Zisheng understood as well and angrily said, "Demon, don't you dare!"
The Saint Heir's face trembled slightly, revealing anger and ferocity in his eyes.
No one had ever dared to insult him to his face as he'd grown up.
He looked at Bai Zisheng with a venomous gaze.
Bai Zisheng met his gaze resolutely and unafraid.
The Saint Heir was somewhat surprised and nodded, "Worthy of being a disciple of the Bai Family, you do have some backbone..."
However, as he said this, he couldn't hide the murderous intent in his eyes.
The Golden Core Stage Fat Buddha saw this and ingratiatingly said, "Saint Heir, let me kill this brat for you."
The Saint Heir neither agreed nor disagreed, remaining silent.
On the other side, a gaunt Taoist with half his face burnt scathingly said:
"Buddha of Ghosts, if you're going to suck up, use your brain. The core descendants of the Bai Family have their special Eternal Life Rune. Do you dare to attack them and seek death?"
Fat Buddha's face trembled with rage, yet shock was evident on his features.
"A special Eternal Life Rune?"
Mo Hua was somewhat bewildered.
What was this rune? He had never heard of it...
The half-faced, burnt Taoist continued to mock the Buddha of Ghosts:
"The special Eternal Life Rune, created by Heaven Void Ancestors and above using their personal true essence, is imprinted within the vital energy of the direct descendants. When they face mortal danger, it activates automatically, killing all external enemies and ensuring the survival of the descendants."
"It's their 'Death Exemption Token,' a one-time 'lifesaver'..."
"It's the additional 'life' for these noble clan's direct descendants!"
