"Thank you very much, Pavilion Master Ouyang!"

Shen Yunhao breathed a sigh of relief and was about to ascend into the sky on his sword when he realized that Ning Yuyao was still holding his hand tightly.

Turning my head, I saw a pair of clear eyes, filled with unspeakable emotions, staring intently at me.

The young woman usually obeys her husband's every word, but once she's made up her mind about something, no one can persuade her otherwise.

For example, when Shen Yunhao wanted her to break the Heart-to-Heart Curse, and for example... now.

Ning Yuyao had already realized that Shen Yunhao's departure was not just about clearing away blood energy, and there was a high possibility that he would not return.

At a time like this, how could she easily let go?

Noticing the stubbornness in the girl's eyes, Shen Yunhao knew it would be difficult to persuade her any further, so he lowered his voice and said softly, "Don't worry, now is not the time to fight to the death. If... if it really comes to an irreversible point, then whatever you want to do, I won't stop you!"

"..."

Hearing this, Ning Yuyao lowered her eyelids, finally letting go of his hand and turning her head away from him, it was unclear whether she was angry...

With so many people watching, Shen Yunhao couldn't do anything else and sighed softly.

These words sounded like a reluctant promise, but in reality... they were meant for Guan Yingying, who was standing nearby.

If the situation gets out of control and Ning Yuyao tries to do something foolish, please make sure she stops her!

Guan Yingying clearly gleaned something from those few simple words, and a hint of shock flashed across her face.

Fighting for him? Who is Shen Yunhao willing to fight for?

What is Ning Yuyao trying to do? Why does she need to stop her?

After deducing the whole story, Guan Yingying couldn't help but gasp in shock...

Just how much has this brat been hiding? How can the Dark Abyss Vine be connected to you two?

Given the previously revealed relationship with Mu Shuangshuang, is this kid definitely not a spy planted by the Demonic Sect?

Of course, putting aside these relationships, Shen Yunhao's feelings for those around him are indeed touching.

Regardless of his relationship with the Demon Vine, his going up there this time was clearly risking being completely expelled from the righteous path or even being directly eliminated.

Even so, he was still secretly protecting Ning Yuyao in his own way.

There's a reason why so many girls are willing to follow him so devotedly.

Under the watchful eyes of everyone, Shen Yunhao raised the Guixue Sword, transforming into a streak of light, and carefully flew towards Mo Yan, who was trapped in the air by the formation.

However, just as he was getting closer to the edge of the sword formation...

A sudden change has occurred!

Mo Yan, who was already exhausted and seemed to have given up resisting, suddenly raised her head. Her dark purple pupils erupted with intense emotional fluctuations once again. Ignoring the excruciating pain caused by the countless light swords piercing her body, she forcibly extended several wisteria vines and slammed them into the invisible array barrier in front of her!

"boom!!!"

The formation rippled and spread outwards.

Everyone's expression changed; they hadn't expected that the demonic vine would still have the strength to launch an attack.

Ouyang Jingfeng frowned slightly and warned, "Be careful! This beast seems to react unusually strongly to your approach!"

Only Ning Yuyao, who was below, saw this scene and bit her lip, a hint of reluctance flashing in her eyes.

Putting herself in his shoes, how could she not see that Mo Yan was clearly using this method to sever ties with Shen Yunhao...

Shen Yunhao steadied himself in mid-air, looking at the wisteria that was impacting the formation and trying to stop him. He felt a pain in his heart, as if it were being cut by a knife, but he had to keep his composure on the surface.

"Sect Leader Ouyang, there's no need to worry! The more she acts like this, the more it proves that we're on the right track. The person behind her is afraid that we'll uncover the truth after we clear our blood energy!"

Upon hearing this, the wildly dancing purple vines in the formation suddenly froze for a second, then seemed to have all their strength drained away, and drooped down helplessly.

The girl in the center slowly lowered her head, as if she had given up completely.

Despite the excruciating pain in his heart, Shen Yunhao took a deep breath and continued to urge his flying sword closer.

When he finally reached the outside of the sword array's light barrier, only a moment's distance away from Mo Yan—

Mo Yan, who had been bowing her head, raised it again!

This time, all the complex emotions in her eyes were replaced by an extreme, cold, and insane killing intent!

"You insignificant ant! Get out of my way! One more step closer... and you'll die!"

Accompanied by this screech filled with violence, more and thicker wisteria vines, like raging pythons, carrying their last bit of strength, crashed into the array light barrier in front of Shen Yunhao with even more terrifying force!

This surging momentum made it seem as if it really wanted to break through the magic array and tear Shen Yunhao to pieces!

The sudden outburst made everyone think at the same time: just how deep must the demonic vine's hatred be for Shen Yunhao to cause such a reaction...?

It should be noted that even when facing her old enemy, Daoist Qianhe, Mo Yan had never shown such intense emotional fluctuations!

"You brat, are you sure there's nothing wrong with you...?"

Nie Qingshuang in the sky subconsciously took a step forward, even she was startled by Mo Yan's reaction.

If something were to happen to Shen Yunhao at this moment, it would be a huge loss.

However, faced with those curious or worried gazes, Shen Yunhao just stared blankly at the little girl in the formation who was trying her best to look fierce.

Her behavior just now clearly caused her a lot of suffering, and she is now completely dejected.

But those eyes were still glaring angrily at Shen Yunhao in front of him.

It's as if it's saying... If you dare acknowledge me, I'll die right here!

After a long silence, Shen Yunhao sighed softly.

His voice wasn't loud, but it clearly reached the formation and everyone's ears:

"You've caused such a commotion, yet you haven't even killed a single ordinary cultivator in this Wanren City. How could someone like you possibly kill me?"

"..."

The entire place fell silent, and then everyone looked in the direction from which Mo Yan had rushed out.

It was only then that everyone noticed that there was only some damage to the buildings below, and indeed not a single body was in sight. There were also quite a few "survivors" standing in the ruins, peering out in this direction.

This demonic vine looks incredibly malevolent, but in reality... it hasn't killed a single person?

The high-ranking officials all frowned, and the woman in black robes behind Gu Xiuwen stroked her chin and laughed, "Oh? Could it be a benevolent vine? Interesting... interesting..."

Within the formation, Mo Yan herself was also stunned for a moment, and then a faint blush appeared on her pale face, which had become pale due to her serious injuries.

She turned her head away, gritting her teeth, and said, "What...what's it to you? You ant, how utterly boring! I kill people based entirely on my mood. If I'm in a good mood, I can't just not kill them!"
