His voice was high-pitched and lingered in my head, like a series of enchanting sounds.

Yin Ming clutched his chest, feeling as if a knife was slowly tearing him apart.

"Yin Ming, stop resisting. You can't resist the Heartless Gu."

The demon soul laughed heartily, for a thousand years, he had finally waited for this opportunity.

"Who broke your seal?" Yin Ming asked, clutching his chest and speaking in a low voice.

This demonic soul was a wisp of evil spirit that he separated from himself a thousand years ago when he went mad with evil.

He had long ago sealed it away, only allowing it to appear when he was at his weakest, but even then, it was merely a wisp of a spirit! But now…

This demonic soul is not a mere ghost!

Someone broke the seal.

"Of course, it's your people," the demon soul said smugly. "They chose me."

Upon hearing this, even Yin Ming, who was usually composed, clenched his fists.

His people?

People from the Demon Palace!

He considered other possibilities, but he never considered that they might be from the demon race.

"Are you puzzled? Why would they want to harm you when you are the Demon Lord?" the Demon Soul said smugly. "Because the Demon Lord will not be swayed by love. The moment your heart fluttered, the ending was already decided! What the Demon Clan needs is an invincible and unstoppable Demon Lord, not you, Yin Ming!"

The demon soul smugly said, "As long as I can lead them out of the Demon Realm and conquer the Nine Provinces, it doesn't matter who that person is! Yin Ming, you don't actually think the Demon Race can't do without you, do you?"

"If that's the case, you're far too confident!"

"Shut up."

Yin Ming slammed his palm into his chest.

"Are you crazy?!"

The demon's voice gradually became distorted.

"Heh, so what if you seal me away temporarily? The moment the Heartless Gu takes full effect will be your death, hahaha—"

The demon's voice gradually faded from my ears.

Yin Ming's back was pressed tightly against the cold rock wall.

A chill ran through his body, his lips turned pale, and he clenched his fists.

“Ah Ming”.

A girl's voice echoed from the cave behind them.

Liu Yue used the Divine Seal Stone to break the seal, and the ghost clan members who had been sealed by the Great Elder all awoke.

After resolving this matter, Liu Yue immediately went to find Yin Ming.

Seeing that Yin Ming was no longer there, Liu Yue felt inexplicably uneasy.

I called out several times, but no one responded.

The man's pale face prompted him to quicken his pace.

Suddenly, her arm was grabbed by a strong, powerful hand, and she was uncontrollably pulled into a warm embrace.

A warm and familiar aura wafted over, and Liuyue breathed a sigh of relief.

"Where have you been?" Liu Yue looked up at him. "Why are you so pale? Give me your hand, I'll take your pulse."

Liu Yue quickly grasped Yin Ming's pulse.

Yin Ming subtly avoided her gaze, ruffling her hair: "Silly girl, what could possibly be wrong with me? By the way, has the seal been broken yet?"

"It's untied." Liuyue nodded.

Back then, only her mother and her grandfather, the clan chief, died; the rest were sealed away by the Grand Elder.

"That's good." Yin Ming said with a smile, "The little girl's efforts have not been in vain."

"Ah Ming, are you really alright?" Liu Yue was still worried about Yin Ming.
