The strange phenomenon in the Eastern Divine Region quickly attracted the attention of all other divine realms. The entire divine realm seemed shrouded in a haze of gloom, and panic gripped the people. Just a few hours later, news of the Evil Infant's return spread like a gust of fear across the entire realm of the gods, and a deep sense of dread rose in the hearts of everyone.

"Brother Yun, are you okay?" Hua Caili was extremely anxious and rushed to Yun Che's side immediately, asking about his condition with eyes full of concern.

"I'm fine. It's just that Qianying and the others have been controlled by the Evil Infant. The Evil Infant now possesses the strength of a Higher True God. I'm no match for it." Yun Che shook his head and sighed. This time, he didn't hide anything. Just as he had promised Hua Caili, he would not lie to her again.

"Then...then can you remove the seal on my cultivation? Maybe I can be of some help." Although Hua Caili didn't know exactly how terrifying the Evil Infant was, she knew that the Evil Infant's strength must be terrifying since it could plunge the entire Eastern Divine Region into such darkness.

"Cai Li, it's not that I'm unwilling to remove the seal on your cultivation. Mo Su told me that the seal on you will dissipate naturally as the laws of the Divine Realm become increasingly perfected, so there's no need to specifically remove it. Everything he does is to protect the stability and tranquility of the Divine Realm. The current laws of the Divine Realm are not yet capable of bearing the power of a True God, so the seal on you cannot be removed for the time being." Yun Che said slowly. In fact, he did have a special method to forcibly remove the seal, but doing so would severely damage Hua Cai Li's foundation. Moreover, with the current strength of the Evil Infant, an ordinary True God would be of little use to her, so he would never choose to do so.

"What should we do then? Are we just going to watch Qianying and the others..." Anxiety instantly crossed Hua Caili's face. Although she had a mediocre impression of Qianye Ying'er, she knew what was important and what was not when it came to matters of life and death.

"Don't worry, I will definitely save them. Just wait patiently for now. I don't want anything to happen to you either." Yun Che gently comforted Hua Caili, with a hint of pity in his eyes. His tone was extremely firm, as if he was completely confident.

“But, Brother Yun…” Hua Caili was still a little worried, but Yun Che interrupted her before she could finish her words.

“It only took me fifteen years to become a match for Abyss Emperor. Now I’m just a mere Evil Infant. Don’t you still believe in me?” Yun Che’s words were filled with unquestionable confidence, as if he had everything under control.

"Well, Brother Yun is the most powerful person in the world, so of course people believe in you. But... you can't display the strength of a peak True God like before, so I'm still a little worried..." Hua Caili's face was still filled with a deep worry that didn't dissipate for a long time.

"Although this world has always respected strength, this only applies to humans. The opponent I'm facing now is the Evil Infant, and I can't analyze her with common sense. She's a special being, not as complex and changeable as humans." Yun Che gently embraced Hua Caili and said gently, "I know you're worried about me, but there are things I must do. There are people I must protect to the end, even if it means sacrificing my own life."

This is the philosophy that Yun Che has adhered to throughout his life. It is his nature and will not change, nor can it be changed.

“Okay, you must come back safely. Xingluo, Xingchen and I are all waiting for you. Don’t forget that there are still many people who are thinking of you.” Hua Caili stared at Yun Che. Although she was reluctant in her heart, she finally let go of his hand and chose to respect Yun Che’s decision.

"I know. I promise you, I will come back safe and sound." Yun Che stroked Hua Caili's hair and promised, "Please help me keep the others out. I'm afraid seeing them will distract me."

"Okay." Hua Caili nodded vigorously, with support flashing in her eyes.

Without seeing anyone else, Yun Che brought Xing Juekong and Zhou Xuzi with him, ready to face the Evil Infant once again. All the troubles unleashed by the Evil Infant's birth, traced back to the source, were inextricably linked to these two individuals. One had caused Jasmine, overcome with grief and rage, to unleash the power of the Evil Infant's Wheel of Myriad Tribulations, transforming her into the Evil Infant; the other had driven Jasmine out of Primal Chaos, prompting the Evil Infant to grow and eventually possess her body!

“Don’t worry too much. Jie Yuan will definitely take action at the critical moment. I believe she can sense your presence.” Li Suo’s gentle comforting voice echoed in Yun Che’s heart and soul.

“Actually, what I’ve never worried about is myself, but Jasmine… She’s like a beautiful dream, appearing before my eyes once again, but in the blink of an eye, she could be gone forever… This feeling of losing and regaining, only to lose again… is truly too heartbreaking…” Yun Che did not board the Primordial Profound Ark. Instead, he slowly walked towards the Evil Infant, step by step.

At his current state of mind, he shouldn't have left any footprints. However, at this moment, the traces he left wherever he went were particularly obvious and disorganized, as if depicting his chaotic mood.

"Alright, you'll have to walk the rest of the way alone. But remember, you're never alone." Li Suo's voice gradually faded. They were very close to the Evil Infant, and she didn't want it to notice her presence.

…

"How's it going, Big Idiot Brother? Have you thought of a reason yet?" Evil Infant Jasmine remained where she had been yesterday, unmoved, as if bound to this area. A playful smile graced her face, and at that moment, she looked like an innocent child, radiating a certain innocence and endearment.
