As the conversation reached this point, Xila tilted her head and scrutinized Pei Yan aningfully: "Although neither of us is entitled to know the details, the person within you has the right to know."
Pei Yan followed her gaze to his own body and sneered: "If she knows, doesn't that an I know too! Stop beating around the bush and just say it."
Xila shook her head and smiled: "She understands what it ans. Let's put this aside first and discuss whether you agree to my request."
"Uh!" Pei Yan hesitated for a mont upon hearing this. This matter was truly not sothing he could decide on his own. Allowing a candidate of primal origin to enter his world, who knows what hidden motives she might have? Would agreeing bring trouble into the house? Considering this, Pei Yan responded: "Here, you can do as you please, after all, this is your world. As for going to the Foundation Plane? I need to discuss it with my people before I can give you an answer."
"Sure, state your conditions! I knew coming here that people from other planes want to go to the Foundation Plane to seek refuge at a great cost."
"Discussing conditions without a reached agreent isn't wise. Let's talk about specifics once it's confird." Pei Yan suddenly thought of sothing and continued: "There's one urgent matter right now. The Disaster Legion might have obtained our real nas from the Foundation Plane. If soone uses them to perform a sacrificial reincarnation curse, it would be troubleso for us. Can you have your father, Demon God, refuse any sacrifices regarding us?"
"It's impossible!" Xila refused firmly and imdiately.
"Why?" Pei Yan asked displeased.
"Even though the power of this curse was established by my father, after millennia, it has beco one of the laws of the Heavenly Dao in this world, beyond my father's complete control. If you don't believe , you can ask the person within you."
Looking at Pei Yan, who clearly wasn't satisfied with the answer, Xila continued: "But there is a way to solve it. In your world, you have your nas, but this is the Hell Plane. Here, you have the opportunity to rena yourselves." Xila took out a Storage Necklace from her bosom and tossed it to Pei Yan: "Inside there's a batch of special light shadow balls. Have your people say the new na they plan to use here to the ball and crush it to make it effective. After that, any leak of this secret na will have nothing to do with us."
Pei Yan caught the necklace and nodded with satisfaction, smiling: "This isn't bad!" After putting it into his storage ring, Pei Yan continued to ask: "Is there anything else we need to discuss between us next?"
"Between us, no. But there is between him and her!"
After Xila said this, Pei Yan looked puzzled and was about to ask, but then his mind went blank, and his body gradually lost control. He realized that Lin Junzhao forcibly severed his consciousness. Before fully succumbing to unconsciousness, he vaguely saw Xila standing before him, exuding a strange and powerful aura.
When Pei Yan regained consciousness, he found Xila was also kneeling on the ground across from him, gasping heavily, looking equally disheveled. Pei Yan, ignoring the rise and fall of the captivating scene as she breathed, questioned with his aching head: "Does your father have a consciousness inside you?"
"You saw it, why bother asking?" Xila leaned against the wall, struggling to stand, then smiled bitterly.
"What did they talk about?"
"I told you we're not fit to know! If you can find out from the important figure within you, that's your skill." Xila showed a strange expression and then said: "Did you claim you wanted Little Friedrich to personally witness the fall of his family?"
"That's right, hadn't we talked about this before?" Pei Yan stood up, shaking his groggy head in confusion.
"That's a different matter. We can't accomplish it. The path to the Holy City is blocked by the Disaster Legion's defenses, so image ssages can't be transmitted. If you want to fulfill this vow, you'd have to send my envoy to carry it back to the Holy City for handling."
Pei Yan shook his hand in refusal: "That's aningless. I've already thought it through. I'll send my chanical proxy along with your envoy back to the Holy City, leaving signal relays along the way. Then, real-ti communication with the Holy City will be possible, saving the hassle of a half month's round trip."
"That's best!" Xila said, touching the Storage Necklace at her neck again, and handed a finely crafted wooden box to Pei Yan: "Here are five primal fragnts. I'll hand them over to you first. Tonight, I'll send soone to retrieve what belongs to ."
"Alright!" Pei Yan agreed, quickly inspecting the contents of the box upon accepting it.
As the two figures erged again from the ruins of the villa, the two groups of people at the center of the estate let out a breath of relief. Ignoring Pei Yan, who was going to reunite with his companions, Xila walked slowly to the side of Samikina, who was still prostrate on the ground and not daring to make a sound. She paused slightly and said in a deep voice: "Did you feel that power?"
"Yes, Lord!"
"He is very disappointed in both you and your brother."
"Reporting to Lord, it has nothing to do with my brother. It was all my rash ignorance. I'm willing to accept any punishnt."
"You still don't understand!" Xila sighed in disappointnt: "Arrange a new residence fitting for the new Prince's status for him. You handle it personally and wait there. Tonight, Shitang will bring what I want."
"Yes, Lord!"
"Go and get it done!"
Watching Samikina and the others respectfully exit the estate, Elder Lin retracted his gaze and said solemnly: "What you ntioned is indeed crucial. Tonight, finish renaming in the Demon Realm first. As for the person seeking refuge in the world, we need to report back to headquarters for further deliberation."
"That's what I thought too." Pei Yan said, taking out the Storage Necklace and removing a small, completely black orb, much smaller than a regular light shadow ball, and slipping it into his own bosom, while handing the necklace to Elder Lin: "Elder Lin, distribute this to everyone after we've changed residences. This new na should only be known to oneself, and it's best if it's as complex as possible."
"Alright!"
After completing this task, Pei Yan turned back into the villa ruins, found a room that hadn't been destroyed, instructed everyone not to disturb him, and then turned and entered the room.
Closing the door, sitting cross-legged, Pei Yan eagerly asked: "Can you now tell what exactly was discussed between you all?"
As soon as the words dropped, Lin Junzhao's lazy voice finally sounded in his mind: "Look at how the candidate treats their master. I really regret not training you properly from a young age! She wasn't wrong; currently, you're not worthy of knowing this secret. When the ti is right, you will naturally know."
"Also, you'd better agree to that girl's request for refuge in the world. You can tell your superiors that this is my opinion."
