Cangyun Mountain Peak, the cold wind howled.
Li Zhiwei and the others had long gone, leaving only Ye Xuan and Liu Baiyi staring at each other, an indescribable emotion brewing between them.
"I wonder where Brother Liu’s old friend might be?" Ye Xuan asked calmly on the surface, though his heart was extrely conflicted.
"He’s dead, killed by soone." Liu Baiyi stood facing the wind, softly uttering these words, but his gaze remained fixed on Ye Xuan, never leaving even for a mont.
"Oh?"
Ye Xuan feigned a sigh: "I wonder who killed him?"
Seeing Ye Xuan’s look of confusion, as if it wasn’t feigned, Liu Baiyi frowned slightly. Could it be that the person in front of him really wasn’t Ye Xuan?
From the mont Ye Xuan appeared, Liu Baiyi felt a sense of familiarity with him, a feeling that ca without reason, surprising Liu Baiyi. He even activated his Dharma Eye to see Ye Xuan’s true form.
Unfortunately, the other party hadn’t used any transformation techniques, which left Liu Baiyi in suspicion and uncertainty. Could it really be this person who killed Ye Xuan?
Liu Baiyi was a very clever person; he had always suspected that perhaps Ye Xuan was still alive. But now he truly doubted his judgnt, and any remaining goodwill towards the person in front of him faded away, as a violent aura began to grow within him, a red light flickering in his eyes.
"Daoist, you once killed soone in the Southern Dipper Domain, and that person was my old friend. Do you still rember?" Liu Baiyi’s voice gradually turned cold.
"I have killed many in my life, which one does the Divine Son refer to?" Ye Xuan replied with feigned calmness.
"Ye Xuan!"
Liu Baiyi’s face turned slightly cold as he slowly uttered these two words, a cold light passing through his eyes, causing the surrounding temperature to plumt, and the red light in his eyes beca more intense, making him seem different from before.
This strange change shouldn’t have happened to Liu Baiyi, as he had always been ethereal and beyond the mundane, but now his state seed extrely wrong.
"Indeed, I did kill that person, but I didn’t expect him to be a friend of the Divine Son." Ye Xuan admitted openly, with bitterness in his eyes, failing to notice Liu Baiyi’s abnormality.
Ye Xuan hadn’t intended to admit it, but if he didn’t, the rumors he previously fabricated would fall apart, so he had to acknowledge it.
"A life for a life, a debt must be repaid. Since my old friend was indeed killed by you, today you shall die here."
Rumble!
Reaching through heaven and earth, suppressing one side, the dazzling Chaos Spiritual Light shot towards the sky, Liu Baiyi’s voice echoing across the heavenly vault, as an extrely terrifying killing intent approached Ye Xuan.
A world-shaking calamity, unmatched in the generation, at this mont, Liu Baiyi’s three thousand strands of black hair wildly fluttered, strands of murderous intent swirling through the universe, as he finally suppressed his sense of familiarity with Ye Xuan, revealing the unparalleled killing intent he had suppressed for so long.
The murderous aura shouted to the sky, the spiritual light surged, the overwhelming pressure descended upon Ye Xuan, leaving his expression unchanged, but his heart had reached its peak bitterness.
To fight or not to fight?
A decision lay before Ye Xuan, causing him to furrow his brows tightly.
If they fought, it would be a battle of life and death. Liu Baiyi already harbored hatred and would certainly not hold back, while Ye Xuan, with scruples, would not exert his full strength.
"Stop!"
Suddenly, at this critical juncture, an ancient voice ca, causing Liu Baiyi’s face to shift, and allowing Ye Xuan to quietly let out a sigh of relief.
"He is a mber of the Spirits Heavenly Palace. If you kill him now, it will certainly incite a conflict between the two sects. Wait until the Heavenly Pride Convention begins; then you can avenge your great hatred." The Heavenly nding Sect Master transmitted his voice rumblingly.
Huff!
Liu Baiyi exhaled, the spiritual light around him dissipating, he cast a faint glance at Ye Xuan, strolling towards the distant sky, only his indifferent words rang in Ye Xuan’s ears.
"Yao Yueye, I await you at the Heavenly Pride Convention. Your life can only be mine."
Watching Liu Baiyi’s receding figure and his aura of hostility, Ye Xuan’s expression suddenly changed because he realized he had miscalculated sothing. He discovered that when Liu Baiyi harbored hatred, he was already in a state of obsession, giving him an extrely unfamiliar feeling.
Liu Baiyi, once a prodigy blessed by heaven, at this mont had instead lost that spirituality, and Ye Xuan finally realized the severity of the issue.
"He’s turned to a demon!"
Suddenly, the voice of Gai Tianyuan echoed in Ye Xuan’s ears, followed by a long sigh.
"Turned to a demon?" Ye Xuan muttered in astonishnt.
"Turning to a demon doesn’t an falling into the Demon Path, but rather his mind has twisted, losing his original self. If this continues, he will change his nature, becoming gluttonous and bloodthirsty." Gai Tianyuan explained solemnly.
"Only the person who tied the bell on can untie it. If you wish to save him, the problem still lies with you." Gai Tianyuan said.
"With ?"
Ye Xuan muttered in disbelief, suddenly understanding sothing at that mont.
Hatred can change a person. Ye Xuan hadn’t expected his news of death would turn Liu Baiyi into this. It seems hiding his identity was a big mistake, backfiring in the end.
"How can I help him regain his true nature?" Ye Xuan sincerely asked Gai Tianyuan for advice.
"He knows of your death and harbors hatred, now in a demon state. First, you need to release the violent aura in his chest, and then reveal your true identity to him. Only then can his knot be untied, allowing him to return to his original nature." Gai Tianyuan explained softly.
Hearing Gai Tianyuan’s words, Ye Xuan nodded thoughtfully, but suddenly realized sothing.
"Since you can see he’s in a demon state, why does the Heavenly nding Sect Master allow him to develop like this?" Ye Xuan’s eyes grew cold.
"Ha."
Gai Tianyuan chuckled coldly: "The Heavenly nding Sect Master, that old fox, just wants to cultivate a peerless character. Turning to a demon only changes one’s nature; it doesn’t hinder one’s cultivation in the slightest. If I’m not mistaken, the Heavenly nding Sect Master rely wants your friend to quickly cultivate and grow strong."
"So that’s how it is!"
Upon hearing Gai Tianyuan’s explanation, Ye Xuan’s expression turned cloudy as water. He was glad he participated in this Heavenly Pride Convention and discovered Liu Baiyi’s abnormality early. If they t in the future, Liu Baiyi might have truly lost his original self, becoming a tyrant who only knows slaughter.
Slaughter for Ye Xuan was rely a ans; he didn’t care for such things, but Ye Xuan would never let slaughter control his true heart. At this mont, the violent aura in Liu Baiyi’s chest had already affected himself, a great crisis indeed.
"How can I annihilate the violent aura in his chest?" Ye Xuan again sought advice from Gai Tianyuan.
"This...?" Gai Tianyuan’s voice hesitated, as if there was sothing unspeakable.
"Tell ." Ye Xuan shouted coldly, giving Gai Tianyuan no ti for consideration.
