Just as everyone was having a lively conversation, two figures rushed out from above the demon array, bringing with them a trail of black demonic energy that shot straight into the sky. The two figures paused in the air for a moment before flying directly towards the place where Yu Ke and the others were gathered.
Soon, the two people flew over and landed on the ground; they were Li Gan and Li Molin.
At that time, Li Molin was covered in wounds and blood, and his face was covered in purplish-blue marks left by being hit by a heavy object. He looked quite disheveled.
After the two landed, Li Gan released Li Molin's arm, and Li Molin swayed and almost fell to the ground. Yu Ke quickly helped him up.
Li Molin took a deep breath and looked at Li Gan hurriedly, saying, "Father..."
Li Gan snorted coldly, interrupting him, and asked coldly, "Lin'er, how did you get trapped in the formation?"
"Father!" Li Molin said urgently, ignoring Li Gan's question, "I beg you to go into the formation and save a fox demon for me! I beg you, Father!"
"A fox demon?" Li Gan's eyes flickered, and he pondered, "What fox demon?"
Li Molin's face was pale and anxious, his eyes filled with worry that seemed about to overflow, engulfing him and making him feel suffocated. He gasped for breath and said, "That fox demon is a woman. She has a strange thing that can conceal her demonic aura, so she looks no different from an ordinary human. If Father sees her in the formation, he will be able to easily recognize her... Oh, right, she's wearing white clothes, and her name is Liuli. Father can call out her name loudly in the formation..."
Li Gan asked meaningfully, "Is it because of her that you got caught up in this trap?"
Li Molin paused for a moment, then lowered his head and replied, "...Yes."
"Hmph!" Li Gan snorted coldly, his face growing even colder. He flicked his sleeve and said coldly, "Yu Ke, take the young master and we'll return to the Demon Realm together! Let's set off immediately!"
"Father!" Li Molin's face turned pale. He staggered and instinctively leaned on Yu Ke to avoid falling. He grabbed Li Gan's arm and pleaded, "Father, we can't leave! I beg you to save Liuli! If you don't save her, I'd rather go back into the formation and die with her!"
Li Gan's expression changed again. He stared at Li Molin's pale face, and his heart sank. Li Molin had been strong-willed since childhood, especially after his mother left. He never showed any of the innocence and weakness that a child should have. From childhood to adulthood, no matter what it was for, he had never asked him for anything, let alone begged like this.
But if that's the case, then that woman shouldn't have stayed!
Li Gan coldly shook off Li Molin's hand, stood up and walked forward, saying coldly as he went, "Yu Ke, didn't you hear me? Take the young master and set off immediately!"
Yu Ke hesitated for a moment, then lowered his head and answered, "Yes..."
In his haste, Li Molin shoved Yu Ke aside, staggered forward a few steps, and grabbed Li Gan's arm.
Li Gan paused for a moment, then turned to look at Li Molin. He saw that Li Molin's face was filled with despair, and there was no trace of his former high spirits.
Li Molin's lips trembled as he lowered his voice and slowly said, "Father, if the situation were... if Mother were trapped in the formation, what would you do then?"
Li Gan shuddered, his expression momentarily blank, a hint of sadness creeping into his eyes, softening the original chill.
Seeing that Li Gan's expression softened, Li Molin continued in a low voice, "Father, I beg you to save her. To me, she is like Mother to Father... the same."
For Li Molin, his mother was a painful memory he never wanted to mention. But he knew that if he didn't bring up his mother's name, his father would never soften his heart and would never save Liuli.
Sure enough, upon hearing Li Molin's words, Li Gan's expression softened, and his eyes lost focus, as if he were lost in old memories.
After a long while, he came to his senses, his voice somewhat muffled and hoarse, and said in a low voice, "Her name is... Liuli, isn't it?"
“Yes!” Li Molin nodded emphatically, and a glimmer of light finally appeared in his eyes, which had turned grayish-white with despair.
Li Gan gave him a deep look, then suddenly soared into the sky and quickly flew into the demon array.
Li Molin swayed and suddenly knelt on the ground. Yu Ke was startled and quickly went over to him, squatting down and asking with concern, "Is Young Master alright?"
"I'm fine." Li Molin knelt down on the ground and looked up at the magic array with a tense expression.
The many demon men who came with Li Gan looked at Li Molin and exchanged glances, clicking their tongues in astonishment.
Just as Li Gan rushed into the formation again, the righteous youths on the other side of the demonic array finally welcomed their masters. These approximately twenty righteous masters exchanged a few words with their disciples, then all rushed into the demonic array with grim expressions. It should be understood that these righteous disciples who entered the demonic array were all outstanding students from their respective sects, the future of the righteous path in the Central Plains. They absolutely could not perish in this demonic array; that would be a tremendous blow to the righteous path of the Central Plains.
The Yuandao Sect welcomed four masters, three men and one woman. The woman had a pair of peach blossom eyes and a heroic air about her; she was the "Uncle Ying" that Liang Yihan had mentioned.
