Hearing this, Xiao Yuhan understood what his junior sister meant and frowned immediately. "Now that you mention it, it really does seem like a pity!"
Nangong Ling'er stared at the clear water in her hand and remained silent for a long time. "Sigh... I should have gone with my senior brother this time. Ghost Doctor Bai Yuanzhou, although he is a member of the Demonic Sect, does have some skill."
"Junior sister, are you also interested in this area?"
Nangong Ling'er shook her head. "We medical students are a little abnormal. I want to get involved in everything academic. Never mind... Senior brother, aren't you going to take Yao'er on a training trip? Let's set off quickly. I'm also preparing to go into seclusion!"
Xiao Yuhan seemed to be deep in thought, but since his junior sister didn't want to talk any more, he didn't delay any longer. He then went out with Bai Yao and embarked on his training journey once again.
...
On a snow-capped mountain near Kunlun, Su Li was focused on healing the white fox Qianyu. Her face grew increasingly pale, as it was quite difficult for her to heal Qianyu's injuries with her current cultivation level.
After several days of treatment, the white-haired woman's complexion had improved considerably. She stood up and interrupted Su Li's internal energy cultivation, saying, "No need! You should save your energy. I can handle this injury myself."
Su Li smiled slightly, "I almost forgot, the Ling Shan White Fox Clan is skilled in medicine. Qian Yu, how did you end up being targeted by those two people when you came to Kunlun this time?"
The white-haired woman, her face pale, turned to look at the swirling snow, saying, "It's none of your business."
Su Li snorted, "Can't we even ask someone since we have such a good relationship?"
With his back to Su Li, the white-haired man's eyes flashed with a sinister glint. "Alright, Su Li, you'd better not interfere in my affairs."
The girl in purple sat behind him, and the silver bell bracelet that had been spinning on her finger suddenly stopped and she held it in her hand. "Qianyu, I have to remind you, never do anything to betray Tianmojian, otherwise not only will I not let you go, but the Heavenly Venerable and the other Holy Lords will also find a way to get rid of you."
The white-haired woman turned to look at Su Li and sneered disdainfully, "Ha! Celestial Venerable? Back then, a sword from beyond the heavens sealed her in the Heavenly Demon Abyss. It's been thousands of years, have you ever seen her awaken? She will never wake up again."
The girl in purple looked grim and said angrily, "How do you know she won't wake up? The souls collected in the Heavenly Demon Abyss over the years have gradually shaken the sword formation. Otherwise, how could you Holy Lords have escaped the Heavenly Demon Abyss? Qianyu, you arranged Bai Yuanzhou's affair, didn't you? You want to use his methods to regain your original self?"
Qianyu stared at the distant mountains, lost in thought. "Actually, whether I can find it or not is no longer that important. I just want to know who I was before? And why did I follow the Heavenly Venerable?"
“You are Qian Yu, the Holy Monarch of the Heavenly Demon Valley! You are different from those demon disciples. You have a soul and have not lost yourself…” Su Li felt a little sad. She seemed unwilling for Qian Yu to continue investigating.
The white-haired woman roared, "That's not me! Don't you understand? Su Li, demon disciples are soulless walking corpses. Even high-ranking demon disciples only have a soul bound by the Heavenly Venerable growing in their original bodies. But that's not me... Su Li, haven't you ever wondered why you joined the Heavenly Demon Abyss? You are also a high-ranking demon disciple, you also have your own soul, so why are you so loyal to the Heavenly Venerable? Haven't you ever had your own thoughts?"
“I am not as noble as you holy rulers, so naturally I can only obey the Heavenly Venerable’s revelations. But I know clearly what I want… Qianyu, I only advise you one thing: do not betray the Heavenly Demon Valley.”
Qianyu seemed somewhat disdainful, "Ha! Heavenly Venerable's revelation? Su Li, you are not one of the ten Holy Sovereigns under the Heavenly Venerable. She has been asleep all this time and even we cannot feel her revelation. Why can you? I have always doubted whether you are really following her will?"
"Why not? My ability to draw upon the power of the Heavenly Demon Abyss's origin is the best proof. This is a power bestowed upon me by the Heavenly Venerable. You should have discussed this issue countless times already!"
Qianyu shook her head. "Fine, even though you have the right to be on equal footing with us because of this, it doesn't mean you have the right to make me obey your orders. Go back and stop interfering in my affairs!"
Su Li's expression was icy. "I'll say it again, Qian Yu, never betray the Heavenly Demon Valley!"
A flash of anger crossed the white-haired woman's face. "Su Li! Watch your attitude. Although I consider you a friend, that doesn't mean you have the right to lecture me."
Su Li fell silent, no longer speaking. After a moment, she slowly rose and walked behind Qian Yu, gently embracing her. She whispered tenderly, "Since the seal loosened, the Ten Holy Monarchs have each harbored their own ulterior motives. I just want to advise you as a friend: really, don't go against the Heavenly Venerable. Once she awakens, she will definitely not let those traitors go..."
Qianyu broke free from her embrace, glanced back at Su Li, and sneered, "How pathetic, Su Li... You still don't understand. Fine, our paths diverge, let's part ways here..."
As soon as she finished speaking, the white-haired woman disappeared.
The girl in purple stared at the distant snow-capped mountains, her pupils gradually turning crimson, and murmured, "Qianyu... you don't understand... this Heavenly Demon Abyss has only ever had one master..."
Su Li was furious. Her spiritual power surged, stirring up the snow and filling the air with murderous intent.
After a long while, another man in black appeared behind her. He walked silently to Su Li's side and said softly, "So... I also want to know, are you really the executor of the Heavenly Venerable's will, or just a clown?"
"Martial Saint Lord, you've come too?" Su Li turned to look at the man in black.
The man in black was very tall, dressed in tight-fitting black clothes. He was burly and handsome, looking like a veteran who had been on the battlefield for a long time. He looked coldly at Su Li and said, "Answer my question, or you know the consequences!"
Su Li frowned, seemingly somewhat wary of this man who was known as the strongest in the Heavenly Demon Valley, and then immediately replied, "Martial Saint Lord, I can indeed sense the will of the Heavenly Venerable."
The black-clad man, known as the Martial Saint Lord, remained silent for a moment. "Is there any chance she can wake up?"
Su Li frowned slightly. "Your Majesty, she will definitely wake up. I will continue my actions to awaken her."
"Ha! I'll believe you this once."
"So, what is the purpose of Martial Saint Monarch's trip to Kunlun?"
The man in black glanced at Su Li, then grabbed her by the throat and lifted her up. "Heh! Who do you think you are, daring to pry into my affairs? Do you think I'm that stupid woman Qian Yu? So stupid as to be friends with you? Even if the Heavenly Venerable were still here, she wouldn't dare speak to me like that. You little brat, I'll only say this once, don't go looking for death!"
