Liuli smiled coldly and said, "Wouldn't killing him directly be too easy on him? I want to use him to provoke a struggle for the orthodoxy of the Central Plains, so that Buddhism and Taoism will kill each other!"
Li Molin was taken aback for a moment, and said, "Although the struggle between Buddhism and Taoism has always existed, now is the time for my Demon Clan to conquer the Central Plains. Why would they put the struggle for the orthodox lineage in the open?"
"I have my own way," Liuli said calmly. "Young Master Li need not worry about it."
“I already told you to just call me by my name.” Li Molin shook his head helplessly. He took a few steps forward, then suddenly remembered something and asked in confusion, “I still don’t understand why Liang Yihan wanted to capture you and bring you up the mountain?”
Liu Li raised an eyebrow, turning to look at Li Molin with some surprise. She thought he would definitely ask Ji Jue, Lang Yuan, or Ling Xi, and that he must already know that Liang Yihan captured her for the divine stone. But he didn't ask Yu Ke or the others; instead, he came directly to her.
Li Molin probably wanted to respect her secret; if she didn't tell him, he wouldn't deliberately try to find out.
Liuli remained silent for a long time, so Li Molin silently continued walking forward, quietly waiting for Liuli's answer without asking any further questions. They walked forward in silence, passing directly through the front hall of Yiqing Palace and arriving at the back hall.
Only then did Liuli turn to look at Li Molin and say calmly, "I obtained the Imperial Seal from the Human Emperor. Liang Yihan wanted to seize the Divine Stone."
Li Molin smiled silently, his eyes crinkling. Did her willingness to tell him mean that her wariness of him had lessened? He turned to look at Liuli, nodded knowingly, and said, "I see. Then you might as well take the divine stone to the Demon Realm and quickly forge it into a weapon. After the weapon absorbs your essence and blood and recognizes you as its master, you will no longer be afraid of others trying to steal it."
After a moment of contemplation, Liuli said, "Let's not rush, let's wait a bit longer."
Li Molin said gently, "Then you should keep the divine stone safe now. Since Liang Yihan knows that the divine stone is on you, he might try to take it away."
Liuli sneered, "Even if it weren't for the divine stone, Liang Yihan wouldn't let me go. He conspired with me to use Gu poison at Bodhi Temple, and gave me Thousand Poison Powder to lure those bald Buddhist monks over so I could poison them. He himself pretended to be a good person and went to save those bald Buddhist monks. I know all about these things. Now that we've fallen out, do you think he'll let me live a good life?"
A cold glint flashed in Li Molin's eyes. He said coldly, "If Liang Yihan is no longer of any use to you, then tell me, and I will not let him go!"
Liuli turned to look at the genuine resentment on his face; he seemed genuinely angry about the injustice she had suffered. After a moment, she turned back to look at the road ahead and said calmly, "Fine."
