After saying that, she disappeared before Shen Huairu could speak again. Shen Huairu realized that the woman was no longer the Bai Yao she knew. She turned to look at Xi Liang, her feelings becoming complicated.
...
In the following year, the defenses on the Great Wall of Demon Control remained vigilant. With the combined efforts of various sects, the previously collapsed defenses were finally repaired, and the ancient formation was able to operate again.
On this day, the snow in Xiliang stopped. Under the blazing sun, the snow melted. Although it hadn't been snowing heavily all year, the weather hadn't warmed up much. Until today, the weather finally returned to normal, and the thick ice slowly melted.
Surprisingly, the yellow sand was gone, replaced by soil, and countless plants grew wildly. When human cultivators stood on the Demon-Suppressing Great Wall and looked towards Xiliang, they could still vaguely see the appearance of the yellow sand that had once existed, but they also discovered that many young lives had suddenly appeared in the place where no plants would have grown before.
This spectacle amazed countless people, and on this day, a red streak of light slid down from the sky and landed inside the Demon-Suppressing Great Wall.
A group of powerful individuals went to investigate and found a white-haired man standing in the bottomless crater. His face was cold and his eyes were sharp as he carefully surveyed his surroundings.
"Isn't that Elder Xiao from the Heavenly Sword Sect?"
Suddenly, someone in the crowd recognized the man's identity. Shen Huairu was also present. Upon seeing Xiao Yuhan, she froze on the spot, then slowly walked forward, "Junior brother... That's great, I'm glad you're alright."
In fact, Shen Huairu had long believed that he had died in Xiliang. After all, too many strange phenomena had occurred in Xiliang in the past year, and she had always known what Xiao Yuhan had gone to Xiliang for. Now that she saw him alive and well in front of her, Shen Huairu was extremely excited.
But Xiao Yuhan remained silent. No matter how Shen Huairu asked him, Xiao Yuhan did not utter a word. After a long while, he carefully looked at Shen Huairu and asked, "Do you know me?"
Shen Huairu was stunned. Her expression began to change, gradually turning from surprise to worry. "Junior brother...you...what's wrong? I'm Shen Huairu."
"I'm sorry, I don't know you." With that, Xiao Yuhan turned and left. He could feel the burning passion in the woman's eyes, but at this moment, he was completely lost. He didn't trust anyone. Since waking up here, his mind had been in chaos. No matter how hard he tried, he couldn't remember anything about himself, but he felt inexplicably uneasy.
The fact that so many people were surrounding him made him feel very uneasy. Although he did not sense any hostility from these people, he still chose to leave the place first.
But how could Shen Huairu let him leave so easily? She quickly stepped forward and stopped Xiao Yuhan, "Junior brother, where are you going?"
Xiao Yuhan believed that this woman meant him no harm, but for some reason, he felt very uneasy, as if he were a stranger suddenly placed in an unfamiliar environment. He said coldly, "Get out of the way!"
Shen Huairu stopped him, "Junior brother, come back with me."
"I said, move aside. I can feel your sincerity, so I don't want to lay a hand on you. Please move aside. I will only say this once."
Shen Huai hesitated, but then a murmur of conversation suddenly arose around her.
“Is this Elder Xiao? Look at his appearance, with a pair of red eyes and a full head of white hair, he looks like… like a demon disciple from the Heavenly Demon Valley.”
"Shut up! Don't talk nonsense!"
"I didn't. Look at the heavy murderous aura on him. Shen Huairu is her senior sister, how could she not recognize him? Isn't this a characteristic of a demonic disciple?"
"Don't talk nonsense, you brat..."
Before the man could finish speaking, an old man suddenly walked over from a distance, staring at Xiao Yuhan not far away. "That's right, he is a demon disciple. I have been in the Great Wall of Demon Control for many years and have seen countless demon disciples, but few have such a strong murderous aura as him. It seems that he is not only a demon disciple, but should have become a demon lord-level existence. In any case, let's take him down first!"
This elder held considerable prestige within the Demon-Suppressing Great Wall. At his command, countless people prepared to attack. Suddenly, Shen Huairu stepped in front of Xiao Yuhan, saying, "My junior brother is not a demon disciple!"
"Sect Master Shen, your Heavenly Sword Sect was destroyed by the demonic disciple. Now that the facts are clear, why are you acting like this? Even if this person was once your junior brother, he no longer remembers you."
