"Master—respect—"
The brisk and joyful voice echoed in the Heart Demon Hall.
"where are you?"
The footsteps are getting faster and faster, and the girl in the floral skirt is running, chasing the illusion of invisible demons.
"Master, come out, okay? Ah Qi won't hate you anymore!"
Jiang Qi hugged Liang Zhu, then ran to the main seat to take a look, but she couldn't find her master.
Yi Xin was standing not far from her, with a kind and calm expression, Jiang Qi couldn't see him, as if he was blind. In Jiang Qi's eyes, the Heart Demon Palace is full of all kinds of monsters, every inch of ground is buried with dirty demon thoughts, and the surroundings are like a swamp, making it difficult to walk. But in Yi Xin's eyes, this heart demon palace is quiet and peaceful, only him and his apprentice who are desperately looking for him.
When you have selfish thoughts, you can't see the people who really care about you. When you have no distracting thoughts, important things will naturally emerge.
With a soft voice, Yi Xin stroked his beard and said, "This seat is here."
But Jiang Qi couldn't hear anything.
"Master, Master! Master, you don't like Ah Qi anymore! Do you want to throw away Ah Qi!" Jiang Qi's voice was already crying, and she squatted in front of the seat and began to wipe away tears.
Yi Xin stood where she was, looked at her and replied: "... here is my teacher."
"Master, do you really don't want Ah Qi? Ah Qi will be obedient in the future!" Jiang Qi cried out of breath, sobbing and sounding very pitiful.
"I'm here as a teacher." Yi Xin could only repeat this sentence. In this hall of demons, those who cannot hear still cannot hear, those who cannot see still cannot see, and those who do not understand will not understand no matter how many times they say it.
"A Qi hates Master... tell Ah Qi where you are, please?" Jiang Qi shouted a few more words, his expression became more and more sad, and his eyes were so red that they were bleeding.
"I'm by your side." Yi Xin repeated patiently, no matter how many times Jiang Qi asked her, he told her that he hadn't left.
Jiang Qi didn't know how long he cried, and finally fell asleep in a daze. Yi Xin kept stroking his white beard to answer her words, not even missing a word in his sleep.
"Master, why don't you look better?" Jiang Qi drooled while lying on the front seat.
"Because I'm old, and I can't look better than Ah Qi."
"Master, will you throw away Ah Qi?" Jiang Qi turned over.
"Won't."
"Master, why did you take Ah Qi in?" Jiang Qi's voice became smaller and smaller.
"Because I don't want to make Ah Qi sad."
"Has Master ever lied to Ah Qi?" Jiang Qi's voice was almost inaudible.
"No." The old man who was dubbed "deception" replied.
Jiang Qi didn't make a sound anymore, she was already in a daze. Yi Xin let her lie like this in the Heart Demon Palace, turned around and was about to leave. He is about to go to the battlefield in the South China Sea, and it is estimated that he will not be able to return in the past twenty years.
He was a little worried that Jiang would abandon the child.
Yi Xin sighed, his expression changed suddenly, a pair of pitch-black claws protruded from his feet, these claws were extremely slender, neither like a human nor other animals. The black claws bound his legs like ropes, and his fingers spread out, and they were stuck into the flesh and bones in one fell swoop.
"Ah Qi, I haven't lied to Master." Jiang Qi stood up from the front seat, smiling innocently, "Ah Qi hates you."
The Heart Demon Palace boiled like a purgatory, with countless monsters emerging from all directions. Yi Xin closed his eyes, but the monster's neighing could not stop, he knew he was free.
"Ah, did Master see something?" Jiang Qi laughed so hard, "It must be the same thing that Ah Qi saw! Ever since he practiced the way of heart demon, these things have never disappeared from Ah Qi's eyes. It’s too bad. Ah Qi had cut out his own eyes, but he could still see them. Ah Qi was so scared, so he cut out the maid’s eyes and put them back on.”
"It's all your fault."
Jiang Qi's voice suddenly became cold: "If you don't give me anything, why give me a little more and make me fall into the pain of longing? Will the appearance of me struggling with demons make you happy?"
Yi Xin remained silent and didn't speak, the claws climbed up his legs little by little, and finally grabbed his throat.
Jiang Qi suddenly hugged his head and cried: "A Qi hates Master the most! Ah Qi is really in pain, Master, look! These monsters are almost endless!"
A tide of monsters poured out from every corner, and the Heart Demon Hall was buried in an instant, and nothing could be seen around. Every monster is incomplete, just like the summoner's own heart. Although it is unsound, it is extremely powerful, twisted and deformed.
"This is just the only way of the heart demon path." Yi Xin explained flatly.
Jiang Qi was crying and laughing again, she walked towards Yi Xin around her braids: "Hehe, Master is a liar, and Ah Qi doesn't believe a word that Master says."
"You are too enchanted, be careful not to come back."
Jiang Qi pursed his lips, looking cute and cute, she said angrily: "A Qi doesn't care, as long as Ah Qi cultivates the true demon. Ah Qi wants to turn himself into a demon."
"This is a big taboo in the heart demon way." Venerable Yixin's voice became more and more difficult, and the black claw strangled his throat, preventing him from making a sound.
Jiang Qi happily watched Yi Xin being tortured by his claws, and said with a smile: "A person who can't even deceive himself, how can he deceive the world?"
"Does someone who has deceived himself really know what deceiving the world is?" Yi Xin's rebuttal was still calm, he didn't need to speak, his voice sang naturally in the Heart Demon Hall. His mood gradually stabilized, and the evil around him receded slightly, but Jiang Qi, who was gradually approaching, was obviously more dangerous than all kinds of demons. Because as she herself said, she is the most powerful demon in the entire palace of demons.
"Master, you'll know if you try it." Jiang Qi leaned closer, stood on tiptoes and pulled his beard, just like when he was playing around when he was a child.
There was so much malice in her eyes that it was about to overflow, what Yi Xin saw in her mind had completely lost her human form and turned into a demonic thought in nothingness.
This piece of demonic thoughts crowded in the inner demon hall, opened the mouth with sharp teeth from every part of the body, and bit all the inner demons to death three times or two. Jiang Qi's way to fight against the demon is not to suppress it at all, but to find a way to create a more powerful demon to devour it. In this way, she will infinitely pursue stronger demons, and this growth will only end when the demons devour herself.
Yi Xin sighed, the sharp black claws on his body crumbled inch by inch, and he stepped out of the Heart Demon Palace: "Stay there, I'm going to the South China Sea as a teacher, you will be fine when the magic change period passes."
Jiang Qi was about to chase him out, but the gate of the Heart Demon Hall suddenly closed, and there were multiple seals on the door, no matter how hard she pushed, she couldn't push it open.
"Hee hee, Master, the villain... Locked up Ah Qi again..."
Jiang Qi lowered his head, his forehead covered his expression, she smiled, but her hot eyes fell on her white fingers.

The battle in the South China Sea is in full swing. Headed by the Six Paths Yama Sect Yidu and the Extreme Hell Sin Demon Sect Zhushu, several major demon sects in the Wudao Demon Realm wiped out most of the demon forces like a storm. But this is only the beginning of the "clearing" of the magic way. Those small forces must be pulled out one by one. All the utensils of the talisman will be destroyed.
This news shocked the entire monastic world, and soon, other news about the Wudao Demon Realm also came out intermittently.
The inheritance of the Shattering Heavenly Demon Sect, which was the primary combat force in the Wuhuang Demon Realm, was destroyed, and even the mountain gate was occupied by a sect that had never been heard of before. Meiguang, the patriarch of the Huatian Desire Demon Sect, died unexpectedly, and Gong Zhen, the head of the lineage, succeeded him as the suzerain. Jiang Qi, the first descendant of the Deceitful Demon Sect, was imprisoned, and there was no further news.
There are even more shocking things.
The sage of the magic way, Sheng Tianxiang, retreated in the Temple of the Underworld. It is speculated that it was to heal his wounds. And the Holy Lord of Huangquan, who has always been talked about by gods and gods, officially broke away from the Six Paths Yan Mozong, and began to sit in the Temple of Huangquan himself. This also adds a lot of authenticity to the news that the sage of the magic way is retreating, because she is very likely to be protecting the law for the sage of the magic way.
The monastic world has not yet recovered from this series of shocking events, another news exploded again.
The orthodoxy of the Demonic Dao completely wiped out the loose cultivators in the South China Sea, and the whole army withdrew from the South China Sea to return to the realm of no delusion, and then—
According to the news from the Temple of the Underworld, the Wudao Demon Realm will be closed for a hundred years from today. During this period, the orthodox demons will not leave the Demon Realm, nor will they participate in any orthodox conquests.
As soon as the news came out, there was almost only one guess in the monastic world, that something happened to the demon saint.
From the very beginning, it was not right for the magic saints to retreat. They have already stood at the pinnacle of the entire cultivation world, so what's the use of retreating? So most of them were injured and needed rest. But now that Huang Quan directly announced the blockade of the Wuwang Demon Realm, this guess is almost confirmed. If it weren't for the inability of the demonic saints to protect the orthodoxy of the demonic way, then they would never shrink back to the tortoise shell that stayed for a hundred thousand years.

Soon after, Donghai, Abbot Domain.
"Lord Saint..." Su Xin wiped her hands, leaned her back against the towering rocks, and sighed, "I don't know what's going on in the Demon Realm."
Lin Jun stood solemnly by the seaside: "Hey, in fact, it hasn't been long since we left. Why does it suddenly feel like a lifetime away? We both couldn't catch up with his sacrifice even when our master passed away. It's really..."
"Don't mention this." Su Xin's face was not very good-looking.
Lin Jun shook his head, and said anxiously: "Huang Quan already knew about this."
"She said, no matter what news comes out, don't panic, we just need to do what we have to do." Su Xin turned down her face and taught him, "The most important thing is to take Fangzhang domain forcefully now , otherwise the monastic community would easily mistakenly believe that the demon realm is easy to deceive, and it would be difficult if flies ran to attack the gate of the realm."
Lord Lin understands the truth here, but he still can't let go: "Do we really not need to go back to the Demon Realm to take a look?"
Su Xin scolded mercilessly: "If nothing happened, what would you do when you go back? If something happened, do you think two more of us can turn things around?"
Lin Jun covered his ears: "Yes, first attack the lower area."

South wind, in the depths of the Hundred Thousand Mountains.
"Medium rare." Long Huai drooled as he stared at the golden barbecue, "Turn it over again."
Bi Fang yawned, stretched out his wings, and the whole piece of barbecue was burnt. Long Huai's face changed instantly, the sky and the earth were surging, and the golden dragon shadow was churning endlessly.
"You... want... to die?"
Bi Fang was not afraid of her at all, he waved his wings and circled above her head contemptuously and said: "Eat, eat, eat, eat, eat, I have never seen you do serious things."
"Aren't you eating too! What can you say about me!" Long Huai sneered.
Bi Fang was very calm: "I still have to sleep and sing."
"Damn, so you call that thing a song?" Long Huai's hands turned into dragon claws, and he raised his hands directly to take Bi Fang off his head, but Bi Fang was so nimble and agile that she couldn't touch him at all.
"Can't understand the bird's language? That's the song." Bi Fang's tone became colder and colder, almost bringing out afterimages when flying, "You're all howling."
"See if I won't eat you today!" Long Huai was furious, and instantly turned into a golden dragon soaring into the sky, chasing after Bi Fang closely.
On the island in the middle of the lake not far away, the demon sage looked at the two with a smile, and gently closed the bone umbrella in his hand: "It's nice to be young..."
She looked to the south, with some worry in her eyes: "And we are all old."

Fengdu City, Luofu Mountain.
At this time, there are little ghosts all over the mountains and plains, the ground is in a mess, and there are constant fighting in all directions, and there is no intact land in sight. Young Master Qingshan held a peach blossom fan in his hand and carried a ten-stringed qin on his back. Walking on the battlefield was as comfortable as spring.
"Song Liyou..."
The ghost general who was not far away was pierced by countless weapons and firmly nailed to the top of the mountain. He looked at Song Liyou with complicated eyes, sighed and stopped talking.
"What are your last words?" Song Liyou spread out his fan and gently covered his nose. There was a strong smell of decay nearby, and people with low cultivation levels would almost die if they smelled it.
"Ghost saints are not benevolent." Du Ziren, the southern ghost emperor who governs Luofu Mountain, said angrily, "Ghost saints are not benevolent!"
Song Liyou suddenly laughed and said, "You're just kidding, why do benevolent people think that ghosts are holy? Shouldn't they be human saints?"
Seeing his mocking expression, Du Ziren was so angry that he almost choked to death. He said: "I, Luofushan, am loyal and loyal, but I was brought into this situation by you treacherous villain."
Song Liyou suddenly had a sense of officialdom. He closed his fan and patted Du Ziren's head, and said, "If you are loyal, you don't have to be destroyed? If you think too much, people's evil way even destroys the Heavenly Demon Sect, the saint So what if your lord destroys Luofu Mountain? Dedicate your life to the orthodoxy, if you want to open it up, just do it."
Du Ziren spurted a mouthful of blood all the way, Song Liyou shook his hand, and the peach blossom fan spread out in an instant, blocking the blood at once: "Hey, you have learned how to squirt blood? That's why I'm so ruthless."
Song Liyou stretched out a hand to the people around him, and said, "Hundreds of tricks."
The man was tall and tall with a gentle and gentle face. He handed out a jade flute and said with a smile: "You don't want to play a tune to make him ugly."
Song Liyou was upset, took the flute and complained: "I have dirty hands, and senior brother still mocks me like this, it's really not easy for me."
As he said that, he stabbed the jade flute through Du Ziren's eyes with lightning speed, and directly pierced his head. His aura instantly dimmed. Song Li smiled sadly and pulled out the jade flute Baiji, which was stained with red and white viscous liquid, from Du Ziren's head, and handed it to the senior brother beside him.
"Song Liyou! I'm going to kill you!" The other party's scream instantly resounded throughout Luofu Mountain.

The south wind, walking on the Temple of Heaven.
"Qingchen, this is the dossier of Yantian Palace within a hundred years. Go and expand it into a jade slip and then send it to the law enforcement disciples. Remember to return the original copy to Yantian Palace. If a page is missing, they will kill you .”
The man in the sacrificial attire of Lutian Temple nodded silently, then neatly arranged the files and started rubbing. His hand flicked one after another of the cases recorded by Yan Tiangong, and suddenly found a familiar figure.
The dossier records that in the early autumn of the 144th year of Anping in the new calendar, the Hundred Flowers Festival, a major human event, was intruded by disciples of demons, and the intruder fled after being seriously injured by the national teacher. Afterwards, Yan Tiangong sent ten law enforcement disciples to pursue this person, but there was no news for two full years.
Qingchen's hand only paused for a short while, and soon he skipped this part and started rubbing other content. After an unknown amount of time, a large pile of files were all included in the jade slips by him, and he put them away with a trick, when he suddenly saw the piece of paper that he had just skipped over, his expression became a little complicated.
"Huangquan..."
I don't know how true she is in helping him revive the Dihuomen.
"Flickering—"
Vivid birdsong came from the window, Qing Chen looked back and saw a beautiful letter bird standing on the window rail. He smiled and reached out to take the bird into his arms. He felt the brand mark left by that person on his forehead become faintly hot, the singing of the letter bird gradually became quieter, and an inheritance called "The Way of the Sun" slowly flowed into his soul.
Another ordinary day.
