Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuhan suddenly felt a terrifying pressure, as if two mountains were pressing down on his shoulders, and immediately knelt down.
"Xiao Yuhan, do me a favor, and I won't kill you."
Xiao Yuhan used all her strength to resist the terrifying pressure. "If you don't want to kill me, can't you stop torturing me? Tell me, what is it?"
"Go to Fengming Mountain and find someone for me, and give her something."
“Phoenix Cry Mountain? Where is that?” Xiao Yuhan asked.
Bai Yao spread her hands, and the relic in her hands, which originated from the golden body's bones, was still shining brightly. Her aura began to grow stronger, a cold current rose, and the world changed color. There were no dark clouds overhead, but the originally bright sunlight gradually dimmed.
Pure energy slowly emanated from her eyes, flowing into the golden relic. Moments later, the relic turned crimson and burst into golden flames.
Her breath gradually weakened, and the golden flame on the relic slowly died out. "Bai Yao" handed the red bead to Xiao Yuhan and said, "There is a fox demon named Xiao Jiu on Fengming Mountain. Give this bead to her, and she will naturally know how to use it."
Xiao Yuhan took the crimson bead, and could feel its terrifying power the moment she touched it. She then carefully put it away with a magical artifact. "Can you tell me who you are?"
Bai Yao remained silent, it was unclear whether she didn't want to answer or simply disdained to.
Xiao Yuhan guessed that she might be Bai Yao's soul or memories from her previous life, so she subconsciously asked, "Would you hurt her?"
Bai Yao stared at Xiao Yuhan, her expression dazed. Originally, she had no intention of explaining anything to Xiao Yuhan, but perhaps sensing that Xiao Yuhan's worry was genuine, she slowly spoke up and said, "I am her."
Xiao Yuhan thought of the name "Su Li" that had been mentioned before, but now that she thought about it, hadn't "Su Li" already been possessed by "it"? It seemed that it had nothing to do with the woman inside Bai Yao's body.
Was the system deceiving me? Were Su Li and Bai Yao completely unrelated? Just a name? Or was it just a coincidence?
It just so happens that Bai Yao's previous life was named Su Li, and in this life there is someone named Su Li who happens to be possessed by "it".
He couldn't figure this out, and he wasn't sure the system wouldn't lie to him.
At this moment, he also realized a problem: the system would be blocked when this woman appeared. In order to verify this idea, Xiao Yuhan tried to wake up the system at this time, but found that there was no response at all.
Perhaps this woman could help me get rid of the system? After all, her strength is so great, she should be very close to the ninth level of the Mahayana stage, right? My senior brother, the sect leader, said that people at that level might be able to change the laws of heaven, so this woman might be able to do it.
Thinking of this, Xiao Yuhan started to have her own ideas and immediately said, "If I help you make this happen, can you do me a favor?"
"Help me do this and I'll spare your life and stop bothering you. Of course... you can also change your terms."
Xiao Yuhan was taken aback, but after thinking about it, she decided against it. It was a good thing she hadn't spoken up. If she had asked her to get rid of the system, and the system still wanted to kill her, what would have been the point?
But for now, he still wanted to extract some useful information from this woman, so he asked, "Do you have a way to change or erase the rules of Heaven?"
Bai Yao stared at Xiao Yuhan for a moment, then asked, "You want to ask about that thing inside you, right?"
Xiao Yuhan was somewhat surprised, "You actually know about the system?"
"You call it a system? It's just a law; I've seen it many times before."
Xiao Yuhan was somewhat excited and immediately asked, "Then do you have a way to eliminate him?"
"Why should I destroy him?" Bai Yao's eyes were somewhat cold.
Why not?
"In a sense, he is not my enemy."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yuhan seemed to realize something. The system had been telling him to act according to the main storyline and to help Bai Yao successfully become the empress. It seemed that the system was not Bai Yao's enemy after all, or more precisely, not this woman's enemy.
But at this moment, Xiao Yuhan also understood: if Bai Yao became the empress, wouldn't she become this woman? Would she still be his Yao'er?
Xiao Yuhan felt uneasy. After a long silence, a bold idea popped into her head, and she suddenly said without warning, "Your name is Su Li, right?"
Bai Yao was taken aback, and a murderous intent appeared in her eyes. Xiao Yuhan could not get the answer from her reaction, but the next moment, she attacked again, knocking him out of his mouth with a palm strike. Unlike the previous times, she was not aiming to kill him.
Of course, it's also possible that she had become very weak at that time.
"I don't expect to wake up for a long time. I've expended too much power on this, but... if you haven't finished this before I wake up again, I'll still kill you!"
Xiao Yuhan quickly asked, "You still haven't told me where Phoenix Cry Mountain is?"
But as Bai Yao's gaze became unfocused, the little girl's legs gave way and she collapsed to the ground.
Xiao Yuhan was somewhat helpless. Fortunately, she hadn't been seriously injured this time. So, he carried the unconscious little girl on his back and headed towards the direction of Xiaolianhua Temple.
Xiao Yuhan did not fly on his sword. He was already exhausted. Every time that woman appeared, she would make his life miserable, but this time there was finally a turning point.
The woman looked westward and said, "Xi Liang Xue Luo, she's coming back." Presumably, something had made her suddenly change her mind about getting rid of him. Xiao Yuhan felt somewhat relieved, but also more uneasy.
When she said those words, the woman inside Bai Yao's body looked wary. Who was she wary of? And who was this "she" she was referring to? Could it be "it"?
The road down the mountain was quite long, and Xiao Yuhan walked rather slowly. At this moment, in this season when snow should not be falling, it suddenly began to snow heavily.
The little girl on his back woke up and asked softly, "Master, where are we?"
Xiao Yuhan was still immersed in what the woman had said earlier, and said somewhat absentmindedly, "You said you came here to gain experience, but why do you always give your teacher difficult problems?"
Bai Yao recalled the scene when she couldn't deliver a fatal blow to the tiger demon because she was soft-hearted, and immediately said with some grievance, "Master... Yao'er was wrong, but Yao'er really tried her best, but I still can't beat him."
Xiao Yuhan then came to his senses and felt helpless upon hearing Bai Yao's words. At that time, he had already seriously injured the tiger demon. With Bai Yao's strength, as long as she did not hold back, she would definitely have won. It must be that this little girl is too soft-hearted again.
"Alright... It's alright. I'm not blaming you. I'm just worried that your personality might lead to you being bullied in the future."
"With Master here, no one will dare to bully Yao'er!"
"You brat, what if you encounter someone that even your master can't beat in the future?"
"Then...then Yao'er will cultivate diligently and protect Master when she grows up!"
