Chapter 942: Chapter 37: Finding People [Combined into one]_2

He borrowed the power of the Dao of the Underworld and separated good and evil into two realms.

The purely evil body remained in the Mortal Realm, becoming an existence of extreme evil recognized even by Ksitigarbha’s True Body; the purely good body was stripped to the Netherworld, completely devoid of cultivation, and should have been devoured by myriad ghosts in no time, unable to return to the Mortal Realm.

The evil body obtained Ksitigarbha’s True Body and successfully defeated Xuan Yinzi. Although he did not kill him, he seized his Dao and his sect, which was considered revenge. In fact, if he were willing to take some risks and pursue him, there was still a chance to completely kill Xuan Yinzi. However, the evil body had lost all sense of emotional consideration and only considered pure benefits, never risking anything for anyone.

After severing that crucial part, all he wanted now was to reign supreme over the Mortal Realm, climbing step by step to the very top.

Unexpectedly, the good body was rescued by someone and later became an important piece in stopping his great enterprise.

The two sets of memories gradually overlapped.

Venerable Wanfa was the old man who rescued the good body from the Netherworld and even took him on as his disciple. And here lay the reason he had previously been unwilling to deal with the good body; if the good body died, the evil body would also die.

Or rather, they would merge.

The Underworld King Sect Master fell into a trap set by the Righteous Path on Demon Illusion Mountain, and amid the onslaught of various divine artifacts, met a meager defeat, while a part of the evil body’s consciousness also transferred into the good body’s godly soul, and the two merged into the original Lin Poyun using the good body’s physical body.

Both Wu E Zen Master and the Underworld King Sect Master had died, and the true Lin Poyun was reborn.

Good and evil intertwined, no longer that pure.

"Ah..." Lin Poyun sighed reflectively, uncertain for which side of good or evil, only then did he turn around to look toward the source of the sound, his pupils immediately shrinking.

The one he was speaking to was not a person, but a spiritual tablet!

It boldly stated: "Spirit Tablet of Venerable Wanfa!"

...

"Don’t go over there, there’s a dead person over there."

A little girl dressed in colorful clothes was pulling another in a black skirt, both fair-skinned, beautiful, and lively, secretly sneaking into the Berry Garden of Silver Sword Peak.

It was indeed Liu Xiaoyu and Tuntun.

Next to the berry bushes was the area where Big Brother Chu Liang planted spirit plants, where the spirit plants grew lush, naturally attracting Tuntun even more.

But Liu Xiaoyu pulled her back in time.

As the longtime mascot of Silver Sword Peak, she naturally knew that although the area seemed filled with spiritual energy, it was actually all built over the bones of powerful beings. Liu Xiaoyu was usually afraid of the place where people were buried, thinking Tuntun would be scared too.

According to the Heaven Devouring Beast’s habits, it might find the bones of powerful beings even more enticing. Fortunately, having been with the Koi sisters for some time, Tuntun’s temperament had become indistinguishable from an ordinary little girl. Hearing Little Yi’s cautious tone, she dared not get any closer.

The two girls had skipped class to come here.

Usually, several people watched over Tuntun, including Daoist Yan from Shu Mountain, Cai Yi from the Demonic Clan, and other eyes, both seen and unseen, making it impossible for them to escape.

But today Daoist Yan was absent, and Cai Yi was nowhere to be found, emboldening the two girls.

These days, Little Yi found that what resonated most between her and Tuntun was their love for eating, both girls adored tasty treats, often sneaking snacks behind Chen Lingtong during class.

However, their disagreement lay in their taste: Little Yi loved fruits, while Tuntun preferred junk food. After some thought, Little Yi, thinking that Tuntun had never tried high-quality fruits, decided to bring her here to try their own berries.

"These little berries, they all grew from the water I poured," Liu Xiaoyu proudly patted her little chest, "But you know, Big Brother Chu Liang is very... stingy, he doesn’t allow outsiders to casually eat our Silver Sword Peak’s fruits. We’ll just quietly eat, without making it known."

"Mhm!" Tuntun nodded vigorously.

The constant praise from Little Yi made her look forward to the Gold Pattern Berries.

"Here." Liu Xiaoyu plucked a berry and handed it to Tuntun.

Tuntun took the berry, held it in her hands, and took a small bite. Instantly, a delicious juice burst forth.

"Ah..." Tuntun’s eyes lit up, and she repeatedly exclaimed, "It’s really tasty."

"Right?" Little Yi smiled, "How could I lie to you? This whole garden is open to you, you can eat as much as you want!"

"Mm..." Tuntun blinked, "Really?"

"Of course." Little Yi waved his hand generously, "This place is so vast, eating some won’t be noticeable, it’s my first time hosting you, so you must eat your fill."

"Then I won’t be polite." Tuntun, moved, grasped Little Yi’s hand and fluently expressed with the language she had learned these days, "Little Yi, you are truly my best friend!"

Whoosh—

That day, it seemed as if a hurricane swept across Silver Sword Peak.

...

When Daoist Yan returned to Shu Mountain Treasure Pagoda Peak, he didn’t see Tuntun at first, and his eyes instantly narrowed as his Divine Sense spread out.

"She’s not lost, she went to play at Silver Sword Peak with the little sisters," Cai Yi’s voice rang from beside him.

Daoist Yan turned around, his eyes still harboring residual killing intent, and without responding, moved as if about to head to Silver Sword Peak to search.

"Let her have some fun," Cai Yi added, "She’s now just a teenage girl, it’s too pitiable for her to have lessons all day long."

Daoist Yan didn’t speak but expanded his Divine Sense and located Tuntun’s figure, which finally eased his mind.

"You’re hurt?" Cai Yi asked again.

"It’s nothing," Daoist Yan shook his head.

After a silence, Cai Yi spoke again, "You know about our relationship, right? I’ve told Chu Liang before, once..."

"I don’t care," Daoist Yan cut her off sharply, "I am human, you are demon. If it weren’t for the peaceful coexistence of Humans and Demons now, I might have already drawn my sword."

"Heh." Cai Yi couldn’t help but laugh, "The temperament of you Yan Family people truly runs in the family."

Daoist Yan looked her straight in the eye, his gaze piercing, as if plainly asking what exactly she meant.

Cai Yi seemed to understand his intent and suddenly asked, "Do you want to know where Yan Renjie ultimately went?"

"My grandfather might be curious, perhaps my father as well," Daoist Yan said indifferently, "By my generation, we no longer care about these matters."

"But he disappeared along with the Demon Suppression Tower, if we could find him, maybe we could find the tower," Cai Yi said slowly.

"Can you find him?" Daoist Yan asked.

"I have a way," Cai Yi smiled, "I also told that kid Chu Liang before, but he didn’t believe it."

When Cai Yi had kidnapped Chu Liang, she had also offered to find the Demon Suppression Tower in exchange for the Heaven Devouring Beast. However, Chu Liang thought she was lying then; if it were possible to find the tower, wouldn’t she have gone to find it herself?

"What makes you think I’ll believe you?" Daoist Yan’s expression seemed to carry a slight sneer, "Now that the Demon God has revived, allowing the Demonic Clan to leave the Far West Land, do you think I will believe you want to help us find the Demon Suppression Tower?"

Such a claim indeed sounded like a fairy tale.

Although Cai Yi belonged to the Demonic Clan Reformists and had always sought to revive the Demon God, which she finally achieved, as long as the Demon God existed, the status of the Demonic Clan wouldn’t be too low, even if she was good-natured and close to the Human Clan. However, if the Demon Suppression Tower were to be found, the first choice for the Human Clan might still be to suppress the Demon God.

The situation wouldn’t be as it was now, with the demons holding the initiative.

"Others might not believe, but you should," Cai Yi said, her eyes flickering slightly, "It’s not just the Demon Suppression Tower I seek, but also... Yan Renjie. Although I know some methods, my power alone isn’t enough; I need the help of your Shu Mountain, the reason why I always want to collaborate with Shu Mountain."

Her voice carried a hint of earnestness, "Yan Renjie disappeared along with the Demon Suppression Tower. To find the tower is to find Yan Renjie; to find Yan Renjie is also to find the tower."

"After over five hundred years, you think he’s still a Demonic Creature?" Daoist Yan paused then continued, "Even if not obliterated, he’d have long decayed into bones."

"Not necessarily," Cai Yi shook her head forcefully, "He’s not just human, he carries the blood of the Demonic Clan, it’s possible he transformed into a demon amidst life and death..."

She seemed both unwilling to believe, yet very certain.

"I know you’re reluctant to believe me because I’m of the Demonic Clan and have continuously opposed the Human Clan. But now that the Demon God has revived, I have no need for further schemes. I just want to find Yan Renjie, to see him one more time, even if just a pile of bones, a wisp of ash..." Cai Yi’s voice was soft, "If you’ve ever deeply loved someone, perhaps you can understand my feelings."

Daoist Yan remained silent again for a while, finally speaking, "I can report this matter to the Sect Leader, but as to whether it will succeed, I make no promises. If you have any schemes or plots, I will be the first to unsheathe my sword and kill you."

Cai Yi looked deeply at Daoist Yan and sincerely said, "Thank you."
