Chapter 628: Trapped in His Own Trap

Ye Linglong stared at Gu Linyuan with scorching eyes, as if if he dared to say no, her bright eyes would immediately cry out to him, and her glass heart that would break at the slightest touch would immediately shatter for him to see!

At this moment, Gu Linyuan was completely immersed in her words, and kept wandering in them.

Every word she spoke was so firm and powerful, every sentence she spoke stimulated his heart, every look of hers seemed to give him courage and strength, she was like a ray of light, illuminating his originally dark path ahead.

"Third Brother, when I told Seventh Brother that you might have had something to do with the demons, do you know what Seventh Brother said?"

"What did he say?"

"He said that no matter what happened, the demon clan is a dark abyss, and we can't just leave you there without taking you with us."

Gu Linyuan's heart was shocked again at this moment, and ripples appeared in his heart.

A subtle emotion spread in his heart, and he suddenly chuckled.

"How could Seventh Junior Brother say such a thing? He is a very competitive person who spends all his time fighting and killing people. He is very straightforward. He should not be able to say such nice words, right?"

I thought Ye Linglong would refute, but she clapped her hands instead.

"Yeah! I was also shocked at the time! But then I thought, his personality has long been destroyed, so it's not surprising that he said something nice."

This made Gu Linyuan unable to accept it.

"You'll know when you see him after we get out. He's such a weird person now!"

Seeing Ye Linglong so lively and cute, Gu Linyuan couldn't help but chuckle.

"Third Brother, you haven't answered me just now, don't fool me again. We haven't given up on you, so don't give up on us, okay?"

"good."

Gu Linyuan responded decisively, and Ye Linglong's mood also improved.

It’s alright after the talk, now it’s time to get down to business.

"Third Brother, you took so much trouble to bring me here. Are you here to show me the direction of the exit?"

"I am giving you guidance, but at the same time I also hope you can break this situation."

"Break the situation? I guess something happened to Yue Hanyu, right?"

Gu Linyuan was stunned. This junior sister was really smart.

"You can say that, but the accident is not with her."

"The accident happened to Yin Jiucheng, so he really wanted to use the Magical Spirit Beads to weave an illusion, in order to retain Yue Hanyu's soul and revive her?"

"Junior sister, how come you even know this?"

"Because I saw the process of Yue Hanyu saving Yue Hanbing, I know how the Magical Pearl preserves the soul. And now we are in the illusion with her as the protagonist, which means that the Magical Pearl's target has changed from Yue Hanbing to Yue Hanyu."

Ye Linglong calmly expressed all his guesses.

"Although Yue Hanyu has been possessed by the devil, I don't believe that the demons will go through so much trouble to rescue her. After all, they can seduce her, seduce you, and of course they can seduce others. If one dies, seduce another is the simplest and most effective way. Saving people doesn't count."

"That makes sense, so you guessed that it was Yin Jiucheng who used the Magical Pearl."

"Otherwise, he has clearly been tempted, but he still pretends to be devoted to the Tao. The more hypocritical and dishonest a person is, the more likely he is to do extreme things. However..."

Ye Linglong asked curiously, "What happened to Yue Hanyu? Didn't she come to find Yin Jiucheng and you? Why did she die? You don't look like you have a blood feud with her."

"The demon tribe is very chaotic. They love bloodshed and war, are extremely cruel, and often fight among themselves. So she has not had an easy time in the demon tribe for ten years. During this period, she also had to find a way to nourish Yue Hanbing's soul. It can be said that she has suffered a lot of pain and humiliation."

When Gu Linyuan talked about this, there was no expression on his face, as if everything was just normal.

But Ye Linglong knew that what he said was all what he had experienced himself. He had also suffered a lot and endured humiliation.

After all, compared to the original demons, these humans who have been possessed by demons are ultimately aliens. They can only be used as pawns and will never become their own people.

Not tolerated by humans, persecuted and exploited by demons, who can survive in such a situation where one is neither a human nor a human?

"After ten years of struggling, she was exhausted physically and mentally and could no longer hold on. Her body was seriously damaged and her injuries were getting worse and difficult to recover from. In addition, she was unwilling to associate with the devil and live a life that was neither human nor devil. So she accepted the mission to find me. She came with the determination to die."

Gu Linyuan paused and continued, "First, she wanted to return to her hometown to see her old friends and fulfill her wish. Second, Yue Hanbing's soul has not been fully nurtured yet and needs the last bit of strength. She decided to sacrifice herself to the Magical Pearl and use her power to replenish Yue Hanbing's soul and help him be reborn."

Now, things become clear.

"She was determined to die, but Yin Jiucheng refused to let her die, so he used the Magical Pearl to preserve her soul, right?"

"Yes. She originally wanted to entrust Yue Hanbing's soul to Yin Jiucheng. After all, they had done him a favor, and he had enough strength, so he was the most suitable candidate. But she didn't expect that when she wanted to sacrifice herself, she died, but her soul could not be sacrificed."

Ye Linglong nodded.

"But what does this have to do with you? Why are you still here? Can't you get out? Or are you waiting for me? If it has nothing to do with us, then we shouldn't get involved."

"Yue Hanyu took the Immaculate Dzi Bead from under the water in the Quyang Secret Realm. She knew I had been looking for this thing, so she took it first, in order to let me guarantee that her brother's soul could complete the last step, and at the same time guarantee that Yin Jiucheng could take her brother away safely. Once I complete it, she will give it to me."

Ye Linglong had indeed heard Ji Zizhuo say before that there was a big treasure in the water.

Yue Hanyu's request was very simple. If Yin Jiucheng had not done that and had continued to "devote himself to the Dao", this matter could have been accomplished even without the third senior brother.

It can be said that Yue Hanyu thought at that time that he was given to his third senior brother for free and was doing him a favor.

Unexpectedly, I actually left myself a way out.

If the Third Senior Brother really gave up now and left, her brother would not be saved, and she herself would not know how long she would have to be sealed in the Magic Spirit Pearl.

"Is this Immaculate Dzi Bead important?"

"It's very important. Maybe I can use it to wash away this evil spirit that I shouldn't have."

Ye Linglong nodded. If that was the case, he had to get it.

"Where is Yin Jiucheng?"

"In the third illusion of the Magical Pearl, he was so immersed in it that he refused to come out."

"ah?"

There was a look of helplessness in Gu Linyuan's eyes.

"The person using the Magical Pearl has fallen into it himself. I don't know how to interrupt it, so I lured you here and let my extremely smart and invincible junior sister try to break the situation."
