The male supporting character was actually myself.

After he devoured my inner core and greatly increased his strength, he came to my door, demanding that they follow him to achieve great things.

After being rejected, Ye Xuan ruthlessly tried to devour all the demons to strengthen himself. When I arrived after tracking his movements, the demons had already been severely injured.

Ye Xuan dodged my attack and escaped with only his left arm, but unexpectedly, he encountered me again at Spiderweb Mountain and lost his right arm in the process.

After revealing the male lead's actions, Yan Mingyue, as the female lead, was indeed extremely contemptuous of him, a hint of anger appearing on her pretty face. "He's so powerful now that you can't kill him? What if the two of us join forces?"

“After all, he devoured and refined my inner core, and a certain bond has already formed between Ye Xuan and me.” Jiang Chen sighed and said, “If I forcibly kill him, I will also be implicated and seriously injured.”

She immediately tensed up and asked urgently, "What should we do? Is there any way to break the bond? You can't let a traitor drag you down with you!"

Chapter Twenty: The Fox Demon Lord's Perfect Plan

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow and smiled slightly, "Are you worried about me?"

“Of course…” Yan Mingyue replied subconsciously, then blushed slightly and hurriedly changed her words, “Um, you are the hope of the demon race, how can something happen to you? What will happen to the demon race if you are implicated by that scum?”

Especially those poor, innocent, and harmless little demons, they will lose their place of refuge!

Now that we face both internal and external troubles, what are your plans?

Is there anything I can do to help?

Seeing her slightly flustered and shy expression, Jiang Chen couldn't help but smile and pointed his finger in the air, "Cultivators should never be hypocritical."

As for how to resolve the issues between humans and demons, my favorite Chinese animation, "The Light of China," has already provided a very good answer.

All he needs to do is carry out large-scale reforms within the demon race and the demon hunters to achieve and maintain a delicate balance between the two races.

"Fairy Guild?!" After listening to his detailed explanation, Yan Mingyue's beautiful eyes widened with curiosity as she asked, "Is it really possible?"

Well... I can understand the little fairies who want to integrate into human cities and work and live obediently under management.

However, there must be a lot of fairies who choose to live in the clubhouse and not interact with humans. That would require building a super large, secluded island with various geographical environments and climate resources. That would be too difficult, wouldn't it?

I think this is a great idea, but humans certainly wouldn't agree.

After all, humanity is divided into many countries with various conflicts of interest, and it's unlikely that any country would be willing to cede territory to the fairies. Places with better environments are generally already inhabited by humans; the uninhabited areas that humans look down upon are too harsh for the fairies to live in.

Moreover, should the executive officer in charge of supervision be a member of the demon race or a demon hunter?

How can we ensure that executives don't line their own pockets?

The allure of demon cores to humans is too great. The rapid development of the demon-hunting clan in recent years is inseparable from power and money; they are a community of shared interests and would never give up this huge pie.

The little white cat's eyes rolled back in disbelief. "Host, although I didn't quite understand the question the female lead raised, I still think she's quite smart and understands it very well. You guys chat first, I'm getting a little sleepy, I'll take a nap."

The fluffy little thing, nestled on its host's shoulder, soon began to purr softly and evenly, its furry little belly rising and falling adorably.

Jiang Chen patted his clothes while straightening them and said with a light smile, "I will personally plan, design and build the Fairy Guild Hall."

Without needing humans to divide the land, I created a separate space to form a small world for fairies, connected to the outside world through the guild hall.

All fairies must be registered; otherwise, they will be unprotected and can be hunted down by demon hunters or other fairies at will.

Fairies who are registered and possess an ID card are protected by the guild.

In this way, a small number of fairies who like humans integrate into city life;

A large portion of the fairies live completely isolated from the human world, following the rules of the fairy realm.

Demon hunters and powerful demons can apply for the position of Executive Officer, working for the guild under strict supervision to capture bad demons or demon hunters who violate the rules.

As for the fact that demon hunters and human worlds are entangled in power, money, and interests, let them resolve these internal conflicts on their own first, and I will step in to help resolve them later.

Demon hunters with special talents can completely separate themselves from human society and become a neutral force.

They can either give up their abilities and live as ordinary people, or join the association to contribute to maintaining peace between the two races.

Of course, all the fairies and demon hunters working at the guild hall receive equal and generous treatment.

Watching him use his demonic power to create a concept drawing in the air, full of ink-wash painting style, Yan Mingyue rested her chin on the back of her hand and couldn't help but exclaim in admiration, "That's a really grand project! You can actually create a small world? That's amazing! Is there anything I can do to help?"

“Creating a small world comes at a price, and we need to time it right,” Jiang Chen said, downplaying the main point. “The help you provide is very important!”

The demon hunters are now unstoppable, and their biggest advantage is their modern firearms and equipment.

Ordinary weapons are useless against fairies, so you have spent huge sums of money over the years capturing countless fairies to research and develop various sophisticated equipment, causing them too much damage.

Originally, the demon hunters relied almost entirely on their own abilities to hunt demons, and killing a demon was not easy for them. Therefore, demon hunters were more like cleaners who maintained the relationship between the demon and human races, wiping out all the evil demons who committed murder.

In this way, they did not have more energy or resources to carry out mass killings, and the relationship between humans and demons was actually in a delicate balance.

Fairies cannot harm humans at will; nor can humans slaughter large numbers of fairies.

But things are different now.

With the advent of sophisticated equipment, anyone with a bit of spiritual power can use specially made weapons and be recruited as a demon hunter.

The demon hunters rapidly grew in number, using firearms to slaughter various demons. Just like the devastating environmental impact of indiscriminate deforestation, the delicate balance was broken.

As the saying goes, prosperity inevitably leads to decline.

The demon hunters are only concerned with enjoying their immediate benefits, but they haven't considered that as they hunt more and more demons, when the demon race is completely wiped out, will humans still tolerate the existence of demon hunters?

When the birds are all gone, the good bow is put away; when the cunning rabbit is dead, the hunting dog is cooked.

By then, useless demon hunters will be ostracized by society. Without fairies, the forests, seas, swamps, and even every flower and tree will be missing a crucial link, and the 'garbage' they excrete will have no fairies to absorb or clean up. What follows will be forests withering, lakes drying up, and humanity gradually losing its most important living environment.

If the laws of nature are not rectified in time, Earth will eventually become a wasteland.

He leaned forward slightly, gazing into Yan Mingyue's eyes, and said slowly and deliberately, "To solve the problem at its root, we must sever the excessively powerful control of one side."

I need to know the location of the Demon Hunter Clan's weapons and equipment research center and production line equipment.

Those places are definitely heavily protected, perhaps even with disguised traps, and covered with mysterious potions that suppress demonic power, so even I find it difficult to explore them deeply.

To save time, I need your help to find out the specifics of these locations.

When the demon hunters run out of equipment, weapons, and supplies, they will no longer continue their brutal slaughter of the few remaining demons.

"That's the most important secret of the demon hunters!" Yan Mingyue's heart skipped a beat. "You...you want me to betray the demon hunter clan?"

She had considered sabotaging the weapons and equipment to create an opportunity to rescue the harmless little demon, but every time she thought about the manpower, resources, and money that would be spent on creating those weapons, Yan Mingyue just couldn't bring herself to do it.

What if... the nine-tailed fox demon is bewitching me?

Once the most important secret of the demon hunters is revealed, and the powerful and terrifying demons bare their ferocious fangs, how will they protect the safety of humanity?

Chapter Twenty-One: This child is teachable.

"Hmm, you still don't believe me." Jiang Chen was not surprised by this result. He shrugged and changed the subject, saying, "It's getting late. I've asked the servants to prepare a guest room for you. Get some rest. You can visit Lingqiu Mountain tomorrow."

You probably haven't seen what the forests where the original fairies live are like, have you?

Get some rest and prepare to enjoy a visual feast tomorrow!

She was, after all, human, and would still be wary of demons.

As expected, one shouldn't expect too much. When it comes to crucial moments, my little white cat is still the most reliable helper.

Yan Mingyue, conflicted and filled with worries, was led to a guest room by a beautiful fox demon with large, fluffy ears. Unwilling to wash up or rest, she leaned against the window, looking at the vast forest outside where light green glittered occasionally. Her thoughts were complicated, and she didn't know what to do.

"Huh? Host, why are you sending me on a business trip?" The little white cat, just woken up, rubbed its ears, looking completely bewildered. "What are you looking for?"

Jiang Chen flicked his fingers and created a portrait of a middle-aged man in the air. "This man is Yan Mingyue's father, and also an elder in the demon hunter clan."

You track him down and find out as quickly as possible the research sites and military factories where the demon hunter develops and manufactures equipment and weapons, then put everything into the system space.

Including the finished products they have already manufactured and distributed to the demon hunters, we will try our best to ensure that not a single bullet is left behind!

As a result, the power of demon hunters was greatly reduced. Those without strength had no killing power, and the number of strong demon hunters was very small, so they would not pose any threat to the demons for the time being.

Once we bring both sides to a similar level, we can take advantage of the situation and cause trouble.

Oh, and while you're gathering information, remember to keep an eye out for the demon hunters' movements.

Report any actions to me immediately.

The little white cat's deep blue eyes sparkled as soon as it heard about causing trouble.

"Okay! Host, I'll go right away..." It was just about to leave when it suddenly remembered something and turned around to ask, "Before I go on my business trip, could you tell me exactly how Spider Web Mountain is designed?"

"The host clearly cut off the male lead's arm again, why hasn't the main system said anything?"

The main system obviously cannot detect the existence of the Horcrux.

However, Jiang Chen had no intention of telling anyone the secret of the Horcrux.

So he found a comfortable position to lie down and then slowly said, "The original owner was a great demon of ten thousand years, whose demonic power was far superior to the weapons of demon hunters."

It's like a struggle between water and fire.

Water can extinguish fire; fire can burn away moisture.

The demon hunters' weapons were unable to break through the demonic power I released for a while.

After those little demons arrived at Spider Web Mountain, I covered them with a protective shield made of demonic energy, thus delaying the demon hunters' attack and giving you time to disarm them.

As for the male lead, Ye Xuan...

I didn't intend to kill him or do anything to him. I was just trying to create a protective shield around the female lead.

The male protagonist bumped into it himself, so the main system definitely can't hold it against me.

The difference in motivation—whether someone intentionally takes a knife to stab another or you leave a knife lying there and the person walks right into it—will naturally lead to different outcomes.

"If that's what you mean, Master..." The little white cat suddenly had a bright look in its eyes and said with a grin, "From now on, as long as we protect the female lead, if Ye Xuan gets hurt while trying to kidnap her, he'll be asking for it!"

It has absolutely nothing to do with us.

"We're just protecting the female lead, not trying to kill the male lead!"

Jiang Chen nodded with satisfaction and said, "You are a promising young man."

"I feel inexplicably great! Host, I'm going to surrender now. Just wait for the victorious return of this adorable little cutie!" The fluffy ball skipped and hopped away into the dark forest, full of spirit.

He used his fingers to draw freehand lines in the air, designing his ideal demon realm.

Deep within the tranquil forest, in a magnificent cave built against a thousand-year-old tree, only one window remained lit, its warm flame flickering intermittently. Night had fallen, and all the plants and trees in the vast forest were fast asleep, save for the occasional slight movement from the nocturnal sprites.

Meanwhile, in the howling wind and cold night, Ye Xuan, who had lost both arms, was huddled in a tree hole, his face pale and barely daring to breathe.

"Damn nine-tailed fox!" He dared not utter a sound, only shouting angrily in his heart.
