"Okay, okay."
Chu Wanli also noticed that something was wrong with her. "I'll have to trouble you, Young Master Xiao."
A somber atmosphere permeated the entire hall; no one spoke, and it might take several days for this mood to subside.
After returning home that day, Si Jinyan slept for three whole days.
For some reason, she just couldn't wake up.
In her dream, she was surrounded by an endless sea of fire, with flames blooming around her like lotus flowers.
"Welcome to the Avici Hell, Princess Crimson Lotus."
A somber, hoarse voice emanated from the space, causing Si Jinyan to look around involuntarily.
The surrounding flames seemed to be welcoming their master back, and they all jumped for joy.
They welcomed their king back.
"The karmic fire of the Red Lotus should burn away all the evil in the world."
"Princess, come back, come back and rule this infernal hell."
That voice possessed an alluring power.
Like a great demon king, it lured her to take that step.
"Will I burn away all the sins of the world, or will I destroy the world?"
Si Jinyan flicked a wisp of flame with his finger and asked to himself.
"Order is disorder, and order is the most terrible thing in the world; it imprisons freedom."
"Freedom is the most beautiful thing in the world."
Scenes unfolded amidst the raging flames.
That was Si Jinyan's previous life.
A woman dressed in a blue robe walked through the world carrying a blue sword.
"No matter how much you do for humanity, it's meaningless."
"Humans are inherently dissatisfied and greedy; endless desires will eventually consume them. We are merely following the natural order."
I don't know if I was bewitched by the voice, or if Si Jinyan himself was the source of evil.
Her eyes gradually became confused.
That woman vanquished demons and upheld justice, protecting all living beings.
But in every lifetime, he died at the hands of humans.
Because she is the root of all evil, like Pandora's box, her existence leaves the world without any hope.
Her presence instilled fear in everyone.
Si Jinyan saw the woman's appearance before her death in the karmic fire: relief, fearlessness, and composure.
She was just doing something she felt was meaningful.
"Freedom without order is not freedom, but rather the exploitation of the weak by the strong."
She murmured a sentence, then raised the karmic fire in her hand and extinguished it.
“A fire that cannot be used by me is also a useless thing.”
Her eyes flashed with a sharp edge. She was originally the master of this place, and now she actually wanted to control her, the master?
That's pure fantasy!
An incomparably powerful aura emanated from her body, sweeping through this infernal hell.
"Princess, spare my life!"
The voice panicked and shouted urgently.
"Too late!"
She raised her hand again, and the crimson lotus flames beside her shot out like fire dragons toward the direction of the voice.
With a piercing scream, the sound vanished into the deepest hell.
This must have been sent by the Great Ghost King to test her, to find out how much of Honglian's sanity she still possessed.
"Even though I am the lord of the Avici Hell, I am still a human being."
Si Jinyan suddenly opened his eyes and saw Xiao Luoan's worried face.
"You're finally awake."
He pulled her into his arms, his slightly stubble-covered chin resting on her neck.
"I'm fine."
Si Jinyan smiled and reached out to wrap her arms around his back. Xiao Luoan was very worried about her.
She wanted to put an end to these things and no longer be bothered by them.
“Luo An, I had a dream. I dreamt that I was the master of the Avici Hell, where the red lotus karmic fire was everywhere and could burn down the entire world.”
Her voice was soft, carrying a faint emotion.
It's as if it's telling a distant story.
"Do whatever you want."
Si Jinyan turned her head to look at his profile. He was really gentle and knew what she wanted to do.
“If you don’t do it, I’m afraid you’ll be trapped in those things forever.”
"Um."
She wrapped her arms tightly around his back; she wanted to leave the capital and find that mysterious and strange religion.
Only by eliminating that great demon king can we live a proper life.
No one knew the day Si Jinyan left except Xiao Luoan.
No matter how reluctant he was, Xiao Luoan just watched her disappearing figure in silence.
She needs to go find her master, Jiang Chumian, first.
Taoists are spread all over the country, so they must have a lot of information.
The Taoist Association is located on a mountain 200 kilometers away from the capital.
Yunjian Mountain, as the name suggests, is a mountain that is so high that one can see the clouds. This mountain is extremely high.
Si Jinyan stood at the foot of the mountain, gazing at the seemingly endless steps.
If she were to crawl on her feet, it would be a disservice to the Azure Lotus Sword she carries.
"Something's wrong! Someone has broken into the mountain-protecting formation!"
The Taoist sect members were gathered together discussing how to deal with the Bright Moon Divine Sect.
Now a Taoist priest in a blue robe rushed into the main hall.
Each of the five sects of Taoism has a leader and two elders.
They each led one of the five factions of disciples.
The Taoist community has always wanted to elect a person with both virtue and talent as the leader of the Taoist community.
Otherwise, if we can't concentrate our efforts in one direction, how can we eliminate the Bright Moon Cult?
