The fairies I flirted with in the game became real?!
Chapter 723 - 723: A Skilled Housewife Can't Cook Without RiceApart from Yu Chan, the so-called oath and serious matters between Yan Xiaoru and Chou Yuyan also puzzled Li Muyang.
He really wanted to know, what kind of common interests could bring these two women together.
So far, Qing Yang’s actions have been nothing but the pursuit of the Corpse Immortal’s successor, and their desire to kill Li Muyang.
Now that Yan Xiaoru wants to protect Li Muyang, the conditions she could offer… could it be that she helps Qing Yang kill the Corpse Immortal’s successor, Yu Chan?
A chill ran through Li Muyang at the thought of this possibility.
But the next second, he dismissed this possibility.
If it was to kill the Corpse Immortal’s successor, Qing Yang’s power would be sufficient, so why bother making any oaths with Yan Xiaoru?
Whatever these two were plotting together, it had to be something bigger!
“Damn it! Without my incarnation in the Mortal World, I’ve become blind and deaf!”
Sitting alone atop the Green Saber Mantis, Li Muyang was filled with a sense of helplessness and rage.
At this moment, he was deeply worried about the situation in Jiuyuan City.
He was concerned about Yu Chan, worried about Yan Xiaoru, and also about the Cultivators from the Hidden Immortal Alliance who came to assist him.
But he could do nothing.
The Green Saber Mantis was on its way to the exit of The Peaceful Realms, but that exit was in the Tianyuan Continent, separated from the Cultivation World by a vast Misty Sea.
There was an entrance to The Peaceful Realms underneath Jiuyuan City, but Li Muyang had no knowledge of the path.
“Must I remain trapped by Xiao Ru, helplessly watching her become fully demonized?”
Li Muyang muttered to himself.
The reason the second personality born from Demonization is feared is that aside from replacing the main personality, the most important aspect is that this new personality born from demonization is inherently bad, an absolute anti-human Evil Spirit.
Most Demon Cultivators commit crimes for personal gain, they understand restraint and fear death.
However, the second personality born from demonization knows only destruction and killing from birth; they are inherently malevolent.
Although Yan Xiaoru’s words made sense, stating that after demonization she is the same soul, the same body, just with a changed personality.
Everyone’s personality in life changes over time.
Logically, Yan Xiaoru after drastic changes due to demonization is still Xiao Ru.
But a drastic change in an ordinary person’s character doesn’t transform them into an inherently brutal and evil person!
Such inherently bad beings are cruel and vile, continually doing evil and attracting enemies, ultimately leading to their own destruction.
Li Muyang did not want to see Yan Xiaoru reach that point; he had to stop it.
“…But I can’t do anything about it right now.”
Li Muyang felt a headache coming on.
As the saying goes, it’s hard for a clever woman to cook without rice. At this moment, Yan Xiaoru tightly controlled the body he had borrowed for resurrection.
At this moment, Li Muyang actually wished Yan Xiaoru would follow Chou Yuyan’s advice and kill this body of his.
Without this body, Li Muyang would be able to use the Resurrection Order to project a new corpse for resurrection.
But now, with his body under Yan Xiaoru’s control, Li Muyang couldn’t activate the Resurrection Order to look for another projected incarnation until this two-year-old child’s body was destroyed…
“Forget it, I’ll just play a game for now.”
Li Muyang, in a state of utter despondency, was completely helpless at this point.
He was unwilling to accept his fate, but there was nothing he could do.
Trapped in The Peaceful Realms, his body was completely cut off from the world.
He could only sit atop the Green Saber Mantis’s head, closing his eyes to enter the game.
“Buddha’s Heart Demon” introduced Li Muyang still on autopilot grinding mode, Jie Zijiu still on his way to the destination.
Li Muyang had no choice but to enter the “God Slayer Simulator” to combat the Extreme Night God in the game.
However, the frustration in his mood and the chaos in his thoughts greatly affected Li Muyang’s gameplay.
After several consecutive challenges, he was resoundingly defeated in the simulator, mercilessly slain by the Extreme Night God, utterly powerless to fight back.
Already vexed, the feeling of powerless defeat from the consecutive losses made Li Muyang even more frustrated.
He sullenly exited the game, sitting atop the Green Saber Mantis’s head and staring blankly at the gloomy mist within the Peaceful Realms.
Occasionally in the mist, ghostly shadows would appear.
Every time these residual ghosts showed up, the Green Saber Mantis would excitedly pounce, forcefully capturing the frightened fleeing spirits and gulping them down.
This autonomous Green Saber Mantis no longer required Li Muyang’s control, it had learned to hunt and feed on its own.
Li Muyang watched the Green Saber Mantis’s hunting behavior, not stopping it, even though such hunting greatly slowed down their travel.
But Li Muyang wasn’t particularly eager to leave the Peaceful Realms anyway.
Originally, his true form’s stay in the Peaceful Realms made it impossible to gather Spiritual Energy and also required the consumption of Mana to maintain his existence, landing him in a difficult position.
But with the emergence of the Resurrection Order, he could go to the Mortal World to resurrect through a borrowed body and even bring Magic Artifacts like the Qiankun Ring to the Mortal World.
At this moment, Li Muyang had replenished many Spiritual Objects within the Qiankun Ring, enough to support him in the Peaceful Realms for a long time.
To him, the Peaceful Realms were no longer a dead end, and there was no harm in staying a bit longer.
On the contrary, the situation in Jiuyuan City held his utmost concern.
In the dark Peaceful Realms, Li Muyang silently waited.
When the Resurrection Order reacted and the two-year-old child’s corpse in Jiuyuan City emerged from the darkness, Li Muyang immediately activated the Resurrection Order and returned to the Mortal World.
Opening his eyes, Li Muyang found himself standing amidst snow-covered ground, dressed in a clean and lavish robe.
Several female Ghost Disciples from Refinement Demon Sect stood coldly by his side.
And there, in a thin purple robe, stood Yan Xiaoru indifferently in the snow, allowing the whirling snowflakes to fall on her.
Li Muyang frowned as he looked around at the Demon Cultivators from Qing Yang constantly busy, seemingly setting up some kind of Formation, and asked, “What are you all doing?”
These Demon Cultivators from Qing Yang were busying themselves under the guidance of the elder Tianxin.
From the surrounding terrain, this appeared to be a forest located sixty miles from Jiuyuan City; it seemed the place was called Hot Spring Ridge.
The mountain had a hot spring; a family from Jiuyuan City even built a villa here, often coming in the winter to hunt and soak in the hot spring.
The original body had been here once before, and a hazy memory suggested that the hot spring villa was just behind the adjacent mountain hollow.
Now, within this snow-covered forest, the Demon Cultivators from Qing Yang were bustling about.
Turning her head, Yan Xiaoru looked towards Li Muyang with a smile and said, “Mu Yang, don’t you want to find the whereabouts of the fox spirit?”
“We know exactly how to find it. Once the preparation is complete, we will demonstrate it for you.”
“You just wait patiently on the side.”
As Yan Xiaoru spoke, Li Muyang’s gaze continuously swept across the snowy land.
Besides the busy Demon Cultivators, several familiar figures stood amidst the snowflakes nearby, escorted by Yan Xiaoru’s Ghost Disciples, just like Li Muyang.
It was Li Damu and his wife, along with a stout woman, who by her facial features seemed very much like the older sister of the young Qu Yan who had been abducted.
Apart from these three, there were also some ordinary-looking mortals present, evidently local villagers from the vicinity.
These people, brought here and standing together…
Li Muyang’s pupils slightly contracted: “Are all these people related to the fox spirit?”
