As Hongyu's eyes gradually regained their clarity, her struggling body gradually softened, turning her into a sickly little snake.
"Hongyu! Hongyu! You stupid snake, wake up!"
Seeing that Shen Yunhao's treatment was indeed effective, Ling happily tugged at the snake's tail.
Shen Yunhao, however, had his brows furrowed.
Normally, even if someone is infected by evil spirits and blood energy, they shouldn't be this weak after treatment. For example, Bai Xiaoruo gave Shen Yunhao a big surprise as soon as she woke up.
The reason why Hongyu looks so sickly is probably because devouring demonic beasts to increase her cultivation level damaged her lifespan and physical constitution!
"Stupid snake! How are you feeling? Do you remember what happened before?"
“A demon beast tainted by the blood and energy of evil spirits will retain the memories of the process of going berserk. She should just be weak right now and will be fine after resting for a while,” Shen Yunhao explained.
Sure enough, a short while later, Hongyu's weak voice came out.
"Miss, I'm so sorry... It's my fault for being so useless and causing you trouble..."
Mu Shuangshuang shook her head. "It's good that you're alright. Take good care of your injuries."
At this moment, Shen Yunhao suddenly asked, "Miss Hongyu, during your madness, did you devour any other demonic beasts?"
Mentioning this, Hongyu's tone became noticeably more dejected, and she sighed softly, "Besides the two monsters, an entire village was also killed by my carelessness... Miss, has the Yue Dynasty made any reaction?"
Mu Shuangshuang paused for a moment before continuing, "It's not entirely your fault. During your madness, many demons in the Scorpion Palace were infected with evil spirit blood energy and began massacring mortal villages within the Yue Dynasty... Mother has personally gone to the Yue Dynasty to explain, but I don't know how things are now."
Shen Yunhao's expression darkened slightly.
As expected, simply infecting Hongyu with evil spirit blood and energy would only alert the enemy and wouldn't have much of an effect.
But if it expands in scale and scope, it will become a very serious disaster!
Moreover, those who caused the injuries were all demons, which was obviously very disadvantageous for Mu Shuangshuang's side!
Shen Yunhao suddenly realized that this incident was closely related to his survival from the Blood Sect.
Since the Blood Sect failed to eliminate itself, the cooperation between Mu Shuangshuang and Mo Yan became a fait accompli. If Teng Kui did not want to sit idly by and wait for his death, he would take the initiative to strike.
Or perhaps... Teng Kui, guided by the Blood Sect, made a move against Mu Shuangshuang in advance in order to lure out the true form of Mo Yan, who was hiding in the shadows!
In either case, the situation is not optimistic.
Shen Yunhao stroked his chin and turned to look at Mu Shuangshuang, "Shuangshuang, what do you think is the likelihood of Teng Kui cooperating with the Blood Sect?"
"It's unlikely! But it's not entirely impossible... Cooperating with the Blood Sect would be like inviting a wolf into the house. Even if they could defeat my mother, they wouldn't be able to completely control the Myriad Poisons Sect. If they really do cooperate, it will probably only be a small-scale collaboration, and they certainly won't release a large number of Blood Sect experts!"
Shen Yunhao nodded. It seemed that his guess was very likely correct.
The Blood Sect provided Poison Old Ghost with evil soul blood energy on the condition that Teng Kui would be responsible for luring out Mo Yan from the shadows.
So, the source of this evil soul and blood energy is indeed the Blood Sect!
The Dragon Blood Sect was nothing more than a pawn that the Blood Sect could discard at any time.
"After something like this happened, you're still staying in Yunzhou. Aren't you going back to help your mother?"
Shen Yunhao raised his hand and pinched Mu Shuangshuang's cheek.
To everyone's surprise, the little scorpion was completely unafraid of Ning Yuyao's presence, and grabbed Shen Yunhao's hand, rubbing its face against him.
"What use would I be if I went back? To consume some evil spirit blood essence and then wreak havoc in the Yue Dynasty?"
Shen Yunhao: "..."
"Besides, I'm a good master who cares about my subordinates! How could I possibly ignore them when they're in trouble?"
These words moved even the red snake on the table. "Miss, it's all my fault! I can't even handle one thing properly, I'm even dumber than a stupid spider, that's why I fell into their trap!"
Lingmu nodded at first, but then her eyes widened in anger as she realized what was happening. "It's one thing for you to be stupid, but why drag me into this?"
"hehe……"
At this moment, Ning Yuyao looked at Shen Yunhao and Mu Shuangshuang's intimate behavior and smiled coldly.
"So many demons have been infected by the evil spirit's blood energy, how come you only brought one with you? Where are the others?"
Mu Shuangshuang's expression visibly stiffened.
Then, as if suddenly realizing something, she hugged Shen Yunhao's arm tightly, "Husband! Husband! Come with me to Leizhou! With your abilities, you'll soon become the savior of our Scorpion Palace, and you'll also gain Mother's favor!"
That "husband" was what Shen Yunhao taught Pastor Shuangshuang to call him last night; unexpectedly, this guy has become addicted to it.
"bass!"
That's the sound of a longsword being drawn.
Shen Yunhao quickly squeezed Ning Yuyao's small hand, "It's okay, it's okay, wife, don't get excited! Don't get excited! Shuangshuang was just joking!"
"Oh dear... why are you being so stingy, little sister? Just lend your husband to her for a few days..."
Mu Shuangshuang, however, was all smiles and jokes, completely unserious.
It wasn't until Shen Yunhao couldn't resist giving her a hard pinch on the butt that she cried out in surprise and stopped giggling...
"I still have things to do here in Yunzhou and can't go to Leizhou for the time being, but I can spare some of the Origin Power of the Vast Ocean Heart for you to take back and suppress those evil souls and blood energy!"
Shen Yunhao wasn't talking nonsense.
His first priority now is to wait for Ji Lingyue to break the formation, find the hidden curse on the Black Nether Millet, and solve the problem of Mo Yan.
Secondly, I need to make time to go to Beihai. Sister Li'er has been gone for so long, something must have happened to her!
"Hehe, don't worry! I'll stay in Yunzhou with you!"
Perhaps because he had a good sting last night, the little scorpion was unusually clingy to Shen Yunhao today.
"But if you don't go back, what will happen to your demon race? If they are infected by the evil spirit's blood energy for too long, it could very well lead to irreversible damage!"
However, upon hearing this, Mu Shuangshuang's lips curled up in a playful smile: "You underestimate the methods of the Demonic Sect too much... First of all, a large portion of the demon race infected by the evil soul blood energy has already been silenced by those beasts Teng Kui, leaving no evidence!"
"!!!"
Shen Yunhao was startled, then suddenly realized what was going on.
If you're going to frame someone, why would you let the other party find evidence so easily?
"Secondly, even if they are lucky enough to survive, Mother will kill them as soon as possible to give the Yue Dynasty an explanation in public! The biggest characteristic of the Demon Sect is that they will not be affected by these emotions and will not let them affect the overall situation. With Mother's personality, she is absolutely capable of doing it!"
"..."
"Finally... if my husband is really willing to give us a portion of the power of the Vast Ocean Heart to help us solve our predicament, it doesn't necessarily have to be me who sends it back. Wouldn't it be better to find a human who won't be affected by the evil soul's blood energy to send it back?"
