Princess of Stone God left, leaving Han'er, Yi Ding, and Yi Zhen behind.

All three were full of excitement, thinking they had been freed, but there were still some differences between them.

Yi Ding and Yi Zhen had been tortured and abused during this period, enslaved and humiliated, with their lives at the mercy of the Red Lotus Demon, who could dispose of them as he pleased when displeased.

Finally, no longer living day to day in fear, they felt as if they had crawled out of a hellish demon cave and were alive once more!

Shi Feiyang gestured for them to come closer, examining them seriously: "Both of you, your Primordial Spirits are bound by the Red Lotus Demon's prohibition. You've likely sworn oaths to his Lifebound Demon, pledging eternal loyalty, correct? He could reclaim your Primordial Spirits at any moment if he wishes."

Their faces turned deathly pale, recalling the tortures of the Red Lotus Demon and panicked: "What... what should we do?"

Shi Feiyang said, "The prohibition placed by the Red Lotus Demon is extremely difficult to lift, especially since you swore voluntarily. I can't resolve it in a short time, only temporarily suppress it."

He took out two Purple and Blue Divine Talismans and handed them to the pair: "Take these talismans and set off for Emei Mountain immediately to see your master, True Master Miao Yi. Until you meet True Master Qi, don't respond to anyone who speaks to you. I mean no one. Failure to comply might bring disaster to you, even if your Primordial Spirits aren't reclaimed."

Both took the talismans, each securing one, and hurriedly left, flying to Emei Mountain through the rain.

They feared unexpected occurrences on the way or encountering unexpected people, speculating whether they'd meet friends or foes.

But they were resolute, deciding not to respond to anyone, not even when their grandfather Yi Zhou might speak to them!

During their time in the Red Lotus Demon Palace, they were miserably treated, especially since the Red Lotus Demon often deceived them into believing they had chances to escape, only to discover they were in an illusion once more, the moment they thought they had reached Emei Mountain, everything vanished, and they were still inside the Demon Palace, captured by Divine Demons. Their fingers were torn one by one, only to be reattached by magic...

Once, the most brutal illusion was when they saw Yi Zhou with the whole family, along with Emei Sect's Li Yingqiong leading fellow disciples to destroy the Demon Palace, killing the Red Lotus Demon and the Princess of Stone God.

Both were overjoyed, speaking ill of the Red Lotus Demon with Yi Zhou and fellow disciples, but the scene blurred, and it was still an illusion.

That time, all the pieces of their bodies were dismantled by Divine Demons, leaving only two heads, their Primordial Spirits sealed within their skulls, first roasted over fire, then frozen in ice... tortured beyond pain, they cried out in agony throughout the night, begging for death in vain.

This time, they were sure that leaving with Princess of Stone God and meeting Shi Feiyang was real, the talismans he gave them were also real, but anything they encountered afterward might be false.

So they decided to heed Shi Feiyang's advice, treating everything they faced on the way as an illusion!

However, they encountered nothing on their journey, smoothly reaching Emei Mountain.

Emei was at that time being patrolled by Sect Leader Li Yingqiong herself, who was both shocked and delighted upon seeing them: "Junior Brother Yi! How have you returned?"

Meeting their Sect Leader Senior Sister, they urgently said: "We need to see our Master!"

"Master is in seclusion." Li Yingqiong welcomed them into the Taiyuan Five Mansions, inquiring about their recent experiences.

Yi Zhen thought since they had safely arrived at Emei, no more ordeals should occur, so he briefly recounted the events, also mentioning the necessity to meet Qi Shuming.

After hearing, Li Yingqiong slammed the table: "Red Lotus Demon, how dare he?"

She immediately gathered all Emei disciples, preparing to eliminate the Red Lotus Demon directly.

"Master has long reached the point of Ascension, but lost significant Primordial Qi during the third swordfight years ago, and has been in seclusion ever since, waiting to Ascend. He should not be disturbed unless absolutely necessary!" Li Yingqiong said, "That Red Lotus Demon, Sister Yi and Sister Lai and I have long planned to eradicate him, and now that Sister Yi has returned, hmph, these Evil Demons, we must eradicate them one by one!"

Li Yingqiong's desire to kill the Red Lotus Demon had a basis, which was the artifact left by Saintess Gaya in her hands.

Years ago, the Red Lotus Demon harassed the Saintess, almost causing her to fall into Fallen Tribulation, instilling in her hatred towards all men, even cursing with a Heavenly Demon that every man entering the Illusion Wave Pool would die miserably...

Before entering life-and-death seclusion, the Saintess predicted the future and made several preparations, including a special prohibition token prepared for the Red Lotus Demon, along with various Demon-suppressing items. She indeed left a will, instructing her successor at the Illusion Wave Pool to kill the Red Lotus Demon.

After the Illusion Wave Pool became a branch of the Emei Sect, Li Yingqiong, Yi Jing, and Lai Gu officially became its owners. Having obtained the items related to the Red Lotus Demon, they had long discussed this matter, but the Emei Sect had faced numerous misfortunes over the years, with significant losses in both the older and younger generations. Li Yingqiong, after becoming the Sect Leader, had been diligently managing the sect and hadn't yet found the opportunity to fulfill the Saintess's will.

She had long cultivated the Yang God, and in recent years her mana had been steadily increasing, anticipating that once Shangguan Hong achieved the Yang God, she would pass on the Sect Leader position and ascend to Immortality.

But before that, she wants to slay all the evil spirits she can, leaving a bright and clear universe for future generations!

Thus, Li Yingqiong selected ten Heavenly Immortal level masters, took out the items left by the Saintess, first offered the memorial tablets, and prayed to the Saintess in Nirvana. Finally, leaving Shangguan Hong to watch over the house, she personally led the selected nine Heavenly Immortals, along with Yi Ding and Yi Zhen, to West Kunlun's Red Lotus Demon Palace, intending to completely eradicate the Red Lotus Demon...

After sending off Yi Ding and Yi Zhen, Shi Feiyang sighed slightly.

This was already the best outcome. If Yi Ding and Yi Zhen were sent to the Xuan Turtle Hall in the south to find Yi Zhou, Yi Zhou wouldn't be able to protect them at all, and their Primordial Spirits would be captured by the Red Lotus Demon from afar. His two Divine Talismans could only protect them temporarily, not forever.

Due to the Saintess's will, Li Yingqiong and the Red Lotus Demon were bound to have a great confrontation. As soon as she saw the Yi brothers returning from the Red Lotus Demon Palace, she would gather forces to cut down the Red Lotus Demon.

A fierce battle between both sides was bound to result in mutual exhaustion.

The only chance to avoid this was if, during Li Yingqiong's questioning, the Yi brothers remained silent and directly went to Qi Shuming's Immortal Mansion to pray and wait. If Qi Shuming was alarmed and came out, he might postpone this battle for at least ten years.

However, speaking of it, whether the Emei Sect fought to the death with the Red Lotus Demon was of no consequence to Shi Feiyang. If heaven wants to rain, if a mother wants to marry off her daughter, let them be as they wish. He had fulfilled his duty to remind them, and that was enough. Being able to save Yi Ding and Yi Zhen was already very benevolent and righteous.

Sending away those troublesome pair of brothers, there was still a clingy little girl to deal with.

Since their encounter at Yellow Mountain, Han'er had felt differently about Shi Feiyang. She always believed her birth was an accident, that her parents didn't love her at all, and it was entirely due to a karmic entanglement that Shi Feiyang somehow facilitated, bringing her into this world. Instead, she felt an inexplicable closeness to Shi Feiyang...

She looked at Shi Feiyang, eyes shimmering with tears, emotions intense yet restrained, not daring to speak, fearing that if Shi Feiyang spoke, he would ask her to leave.

Shi Feiyang said, "Your Primordial Spirit has not been restricted by the old demon, but you are even more troublesome than those two brothers."

Han'er didn't expect him to say that and rubbed her eyes, "What trouble?"

"Because you've been cultivating the 'Blood God Scripture'."

The Princess of Stone God's 'Blood God Scripture,' the first volume contains numerous spring palace illustrations, a total of three hundred and sixty-five Blood Demon Great Methods, all passed on to her by the Princess of Stone God. Whenever she thought of those techniques, she couldn't help but think of Shi Feiyang before her, causing Han'er's face to turn red and remain silent with her head down.

Shi Feiyang told her, "Although I haven't read that Demon Scripture, I roughly know what's inside."

Han'er's face turned even redder, as if it would bleed, heated as if roasted, wishing she could immediately turn and leave, find a quiet place to calm down in the rain outside.

Shi Feiyang continued, "To fully master the contents of any Demon Scripture requires direct cultivation, communication with the Divine Demon within the scripture. Only through the mutual resonance of the human and demon minds can one fully grasp its meaning. Otherwise, one is always separated by a barrier, only able to practice superficial skills. However, once one cultivates like this, one will merge with the demon's Divine Energy, inseparable like maggots that attach to bones,

never to be parted again. 'Blood God Scripture' is the foremost of the Demon Path scriptures, divided into volumes of Good and Evil, with a Divine Demon ruling each. The Princess of Stone God is now the ruling Divine Demon of the Good volume. She personally taught you the Demon Scripture, and in reality, a mystical connection has already formed between you and her. No matter how many times you reincarnate in the future,

you will find it difficult to escape her control. In her mind, the best way is to directly cultivate this Demon Scripture with me. Not only could you obtain my Essence Qi and Primordial Spirit, but you could also eventually trap me inside the Demon Scripture to replace her as the ruling Divine Demon. However, I did not follow her plan. She also thought of Deng Yin and abandoned that idea. Now, she uses your feelings for me,

to teach you the Demon Scripture and then send you to unite with me. Her ultimate goal is still to find a substitute. Whether it's you or me, whoever enters the Demon Scripture, she can fully break free from it, either by ascending the Demon Tribulation or by finding Deng Yin to merge and cultivate the Blood Demon True Body. This demon has plotted everything perfectly…"

Han'er looked at him, quietly listening until he finished, then asked, "Putting all this aside, do you have even the slightest bit of genuine feeling for me? Not a single thread of affection?"

"No." Shi Feiyang knew it was somewhat cruel, but still answered straightforwardly, as this was the only way to prevent causing greater harm to the other party, "I have a peer relationship with Nirvana True Master, he peers with Master Chang Mei, your father Zhuge Jingwo is Master Chang Mei's grand-disciple, to be precise, you should call me great-grandfather."

"So what! Those who practice Immortal Cultivation can live for a thousand years, go through several lifetimes, where elders become juniors, and juniors elders, what's the matter with that? You don't like me, fine! I won't pester you!"

Han'er turned and ran outside after speaking.

Shi Feiyang blocked her path with Purple and Blue Divine Light, "That witch couldn't use you to lure me, so she will definitely make you her substitute. By then you would have to enter the Demon Scripture…"

"I am willing! All these things you've said, the master has already explained to me! It's all clear and clear, I've chosen this willingly! I would now rather succeed her and manage the Demon Scripture in her stead!"

"You don't even understand all the causal relationships in this. That witch is deceiving you."

"I am willing to be deceived by her! It's none of your business!"
