Chapter 486 The Truth
The female ghost's soul was extremely weak, so much so that it was almost invisible.
Yu Zhiyi wanted to release her spiritual power to help her consolidate her soul, but as soon as she moved her hand, she remembered that Tianyin was no longer a cultivator but a spirit, and could not withstand the impact of pure spiritual power.
The male demon's hair stood on end the moment she made a move, but when he saw that she realized something was wrong, his red hair fell down again. He suggested, "Let me do it. I can stabilize her soul."
The moment he reached out, Yu Zhiyi slapped his hand away: "The moment you made a move, she became tainted with demonic energy. Have you thought about the consequences of not being able to control the demonic energy?"
The male demon remained silent for a moment, clearly realizing that something was amiss.
It was able to hide safely within the Heavenly Mystery Sect for two reasons: firstly, because Yu Zhiyi protected it, and secondly, because as a mature old demon, it was able to conceal its demonic energy very securely.
Otherwise, it wouldn't have been able to stay in Mingshan for so long without being discovered.
But Fairy Tianyin is different; she is a cultivator and cannot control demonic energy.
Besides, even if she were exceptionally talented and could perfectly control demonic energy without any instruction, she probably wouldn't want to.
It was getting a little impatient: "Then what do you suggest we do?"
Yu Zhiyi had a thought: "Li Yu, help Senior Sister stabilize her soul."
The old demon was stunned to find that Yu Zhiyi was hiding a Green Demon on her body.
Tianyin stared blankly at Yu Zhiyi for a long while, then suddenly lowered her eyes: "Thank you."
Yu Zhiyi smiled and said, "You're my senior sister, so it's only right."
With the ghostly energy supplied by Li Yu, Tianyin's soul quickly became stable.
Although still very weak, it is no longer likely to dissipate easily.
Yu Zhiyi flipped her wrist and took out the sect token: "I'll tell Master."
"don't want!"
Tianyin suddenly released a wisp of ghostly energy.
It wouldn't hurt Yu Zhiyi, but it made people feel her resistance.
Yu Zhiyi asked, puzzled, "Why?"
She took a fresh look at the Fairy of Heavenly Sound.
If she hadn't just used the Golden Reincarnation Eye, she probably would have already used it.
The Heavenly Sound Fairy glanced at the male demon.
The old demon said somewhat aggrievedly, "If it weren't for me, you would have been completely destroyed by her."
"I'm sorry." Tianyin expressed her apology gently, but her attitude remained firm.
Male Demon: "..."
After the male demon left, Tianyin floated to the window, overlooking the familiar scenery of Tianji Sect, and said in a gentle voice: "I was not killed by the demons back then."
Yu Zhiyi's eyes narrowed.
"To be precise, it was indeed a demon who killed me, but the person who orchestrated all of this was not a demon."
Suddenly, a clap of thunder roared in the clear sky.
Silver lightning ripped through the night sky, casting a deathly pale light on the face of the Heavenly Music Fairy.
She suddenly groaned, and her soul, which had been painstakingly repaired, turned pale again.
Yu Zhiyi's expression changed, and she set up a barrier, then asked Li Yu to help repair the soul body.
The lightning in the sky grew increasingly terrifying, swirling and crisscrossing like divine punishment.
Yu Zhiyi frowned deeply.
This isn't right.
The Heavenly Sound Fairy glared at the dense lightning, her eyes flashing with intense hatred and ruthlessness.
As if she had made up her mind, she suddenly looked up and said quickly, "The world we live in is actually just a book."
Crack.
A thunderbolt struck, hitting the protective array of the mountain, causing the sturdy array to shake slightly.
Yu Zhiyi's pupils contracted sharply.
Crack.
Another bolt of lightning struck.
But this time it failed to reach the mountain-protecting formation.
Because someone stopped it.
"Ancestor Fengxu?"
Fairy Fengxu has returned to the Tianji Sect. According to seniority, even True Person Dongwei has to call her Ancestor.
It was also because of Fairy Fengxu's return that the Heavenly Mystery Sect regained its fame in the Hidden Realm.
In a flash of inspiration, Yu Zhiyi realized that many things seemed to be connected in one place.
The Heavenly Sound Fairy, unaware of her thoughts, continued, "The matter is somewhat complicated, and I cannot explain it briefly. So, before I finish speaking, you must protect me."
Yu Zhiyi looked at the flashing lightning and the Wind Fairy who shattered the lightning, and nodded.
Having received the assurance, Fairy Tianyin continued, "This is a book within a book; you can think of it as the original version and the modified version."
"You are the female lead in the first version, deeply loved and protected by the Heavenly Dao. You are diligent, self-disciplined, intelligent, courageous, and kind. You meet and fall in love with the male lead, Du Ziheng, and live a loving life together."
Yu Zhiyi didn't speak, or even think about anything, but simply waited quietly for her to continue.
"A book that is written and published will inevitably have readers. Because your love is so beautiful, it has attracted many readers. Among the readers who like this book, there is a saying: 'It takes a hundred years to share a boat ride, and a thousand years to find Du Ziheng.'"
"Female readers really like Du Ziheng and hope to have a husband like him."
"And so the second version came about."
"A female assassin whose hands are stained with human blood in the reader's world, namely You Bingyue, happened to read this book before carrying out her last mission. During that mission, she was betrayed by the organization boss she deeply loved and ended up being torn to pieces. Before she died, she made a wish in her heart, hoping that if there was an afterlife, the man she would meet would be a perfect warm man like Du Ziheng, and she would never fall in love with a cold-blooded monster again."
"And so, she became a peasant girl in our world. Just then, Du Ziheng was being chased while traveling for his studies. You Bingyue saved him by relying on her knowledge of the plot and showed a different kind of charm than women of this era, which attracted Du Ziheng's attention."
"At first, Du Ziheng was able to resist her charm. After all, he is the male protagonist of the original story, and in the setting, he only likes you, the female protagonist. Before you appeared, he would not be attracted to other women."
“You Bingyue plotted to make him ruin her reputation, and he had no choice but to compromise out of a sense of responsibility at first.”
“You Bingyue is not from this era after all. She has many admirable qualities. Over time, Du Ziheng fell for her. That’s just how he is. He is devoted, affectionate, and very responsible.”
"In this version, you did not meet Du Ziheng, but married Zhang Tianshun and helped him become a king of a different surname, enjoying unparalleled glory."
"But this is wrong. Heaven will not allow its daughter and son-in-law to be separated like this. In addition, some people in this world have awakened and know the truth of the world."
Yu Zhiyi pinched the bridge of her nose: "The one who awakened, is it Master Yuzhu?"
Fairy Tianyin was taken aback for a moment, then smiled with relief.
"As expected of the daughter of Heaven, she is indeed intelligent enough."
Yu Zhiyi twitched her lips.
Actually, this is not hard to guess.
After all, people who know the truth about this world will subconsciously try to steal the male lead away.
You Bingyue is like that.
The same applies to the Jade Bamboo Immortal.
