Call her selfish or call her cold-hearted, but the point is, she's unwilling to risk her own life to save people who are unrelated to her.
Their lives matter, but what about hers...?
She wasn't born owing them anything, so why should she have to sacrifice herself?
A glint flashed in Huo Fei's eyes, and his grip on the phone tightened slightly.
After a long silence, he said with difficulty, "Don't be afraid, I will come with you. It's just a ley line, not the restoration of the entire earth. If you can't control yourself when the time comes, I will stop you."
Time was too tight, and he didn't have time to make any plans.
Huo Fei originally thought that by sending Yin Huan out of Penang and giving her a quiet space to grow slowly, she could completely master the power of Nuwa before the earth was destroyed.
As long as she fully awakens her power, she won't have to walk the path of destruction.
But the demons couldn't wait any longer because their prince's demonic soul was about to be destroyed.
The demons chose to fight to the death, constantly destroying the land in an attempt to disrupt social order, lure away the Penang exorcists, and rescue their prince.
It has been almost a year since the monsters appeared in the world.
Despite the constant encroachment of the demonic forces, the selfish desires of humanity can be temporarily suppressed, thanks to the strong-arm tactics of the Chinese political system and its leaders.
The demons, having exhausted all their resources and realizing they could no longer cause much chaos among the humans, turned their attention to destroying the earth's veins to incite panic and completely disrupt the current peace of humanity.
"You'll stop me? I can't even control myself, what makes you think you can stop me?" Silver Ring sneered, her face full of sarcasm.
As she spoke, Yin Huan's thoughts churned, and two opposing forces began to tug at each other's minds. In her current state, let alone waiting to repair the ley lines, she was already finding it difficult to control herself.
Yin Huan, holding the phone, sat down on the sofa and furrowed her brow wearily.
She never expected that fate would strike so quickly.
Although she seemed unreliable and always laughing and joking, she had never had a moment of peace since learning her true identity, constantly thinking about how to escape this destined arrangement.
She has only lived for about three hundred years, and among the demon race, she is still just a toddler.
She cherishes her life; she doesn't want to die.
Huo Fei: "Yinhuan, this is your destiny, you can't escape it. The only way to extricate yourself from this quagmire is to confront it head-on. Right now, we are only repairing one area of the earth's veins, not restoring the spiritual energy of the entire earth... The demons destroy one place, you repair that place, step by step, and you will never follow the path of the previous generation of Nuhui."
Huo Fei paused, then continued, "If you wait until the demons have destroyed the entire earth's veins before you act, then..."
Huo Fei had already analyzed this matter in depth when the Demon Clan caused the flash flood.
The previous generation's goddess, Hui, only intervened to restore the earth's vitality after the entire land had been utterly destroyed. The earth is vast; to restore it all at once would require immense power. But what if things were done slowly...?
If we repair it little by little, will we be able to avoid sacrificing the Silver Ring?
He couldn't bear to watch Yin Huan vanish from the world, especially after understanding his own feelings; it was even more impossible. But this was Yin Huan's destiny, a fate etched into her very being by Nuwa from the moment she was born.
Nuwa was a sage, transcending heaven and earth; her will was simply no match for the Silver Ring.
If you can't resist, then you can only accept it.
However, they can decide how to greet them.
Now that things have come to this, he has no choice but to make other plans. He even suspects that the previous generation's Nu Hui's path of sacrificial rites to the heavens might have been orchestrated by demons.
However, when the previous generation of Nu Hui offered sacrifices to the heavens, he was still a little demon who had only recently gained intelligence and did not know about these things.
Perhaps even the late abbot who passed away didn't know.
Those past events have been buried for too long; to find out the truth, both Yin Huan and Luo Mang would need to awaken their memories.
However, it seems unlikely at present.
Upon hearing this, Yin Huan's eyes widened in surprise, and she asked urgently, "Explain yourself, what do you mean?"
Huo Fei: "Your Nuwa power has awakened, but it's not strong enough yet. Restoring the earth's vitality is impossible, but repairing a ley line that hasn't been severed is not difficult. From now on, wherever the demons destroy, you repair it. As long as the ley lines remain intact, you can temporarily stabilize the earth's vitality. As for the hearts of those who have been seduced by the demons... give me time. Once the demons are completely destroyed, people's hearts will naturally return to normal. At that time, we can guide them slowly, and they will naturally not head towards destruction."
At this point, Huo Fei's tone changed, and he said softly, "Don't worry, after the demons appeared, the major sects distributed calming talismans to their leaders. As long as the leaders are not controlled by the authorities, China will not descend into chaos for the time being. You still have time."
Holding her phone, Yin Huan leaned back heavily on the sofa, her dark eyes flickering with light. After pondering for a long time, she finally asked, "When are you coming?"
Huo Fei: "I'll leave right away. You and Bai Mao go to Ning City first. We'll meet up in Ning City."
This was the safest solution he had come up with after much deliberation.
Silver Ring meticulously repaired the earth, preventing its destruction and buying herself time. At the same time, the current situation presented the perfect opportunity for Silver Ring to reveal her true identity.
Because the world needs Silver Ring's help, they will no longer "force" her.
Righteous demon hunters are always hypocritical, their falsehoods masked by a sense of righteousness. If they owe Silver Ring a debt of gratitude, even if they harbor ill intentions, they wouldn't dare to openly attack her tomorrow.
