"It's not my fault! The crystal key is real, and the teleportation array is intact..." Zhou Qing's forehead was covered in beads of sweat as he hurriedly and incoherently tried to explain.
Shen Yunhao frowned in thought: "Could it be that the teleportation array has been neglected for a long time and the coordinates have shifted? But these disciples shouldn't have been in here for very long..."
"Tch! Whatever the reason..." Mo Yan cracked her knuckles, a strange purple light flashing in her eyes. "Now that his cultivation has been restored, there's no point in keeping this piece of trash around."
"Wh...what!"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Qing instinctively turned and ran, but froze on the spot after taking the first step.
Looking down, a slender wisteria vine pierced through his heart, stained with blood and bearing a fragment of his broken heart...
"No...I don't want to die! I won't..."
"Whoosh!"
The next second, the wisteria was pulled out, and Zhou Qing's body seemed to have all its strength drained away, instantly collapsing to the ground...
"No...no..."
Even with his last breath, Zhou Qing desperately stretched out a hand before finally falling silent...
"What are you doing?"
Just as Mo Yan sneered, Shen Yunhao's voice suddenly rang out, causing the girl to freeze instantly.
The slightly bloodthirsty smile that was just a second ago vanished without a trace. The girl put away the vines, coughed twice, and unconsciously tugged at the hem of her purple skirt.
"Um... this kid, he played tricks, bringing us here. I don't know what evil intentions he has. If we don't kill him quickly, there will be endless trouble..."
"..."
In front of a Void Realm expert like you... the consequences could be dire?
Shen Yunhao frowned, stepped forward and stood in front of Mo Yan, looking directly at her.
"What are you doing...?"
Mo Yan pouted, somewhat dissatisfied, but her tone lacked confidence. "This guy is a disciple of the Tai Xuan Dao Sect. Since we haven't been teleported to the Tai Xuan Dao Sect's territory, there's no use keeping him alive. We might as well kill him sooner rather than later, lest he desperately seek help from the sect..."
Shen Yunhao stared silently at Zhou Qing's corpse, feeling little pity.
After all, what these people did to Mo Yan in the Ice Cave Secret Realm was simply unforgivable.
What he cares about more now is his little sister's condition.
As a Dark Abyss Demon Vine, Mo Yan, no matter how brutal she usually is, will appear relatively restrained in front of Shen Yunhao.
Moreover, even under these circumstances, if someone were to commit murder, they would certainly consult Shen Yunhao's opinion.
This is the first time I've ever seen someone kill so decisively!
"Will the removal of the Netherfire Curse have a significant impact on you?"
At this moment, Shen Yunhao asked in a low voice.
"Huh?" Mo Yan was clearly taken aback, and pouted, "What did you say? Could it be... that after all the trouble of getting rid of it, you want to put it back on me? So... love really does disappear?"
Shen Yunhao sighed.
When the Netherfire Curse was inside Mo Yan's body, although the black millet grains constantly caused burning pain to the little sister, they also seemed to have some restraining effect.
The limitation here does not refer to strength...
Rather, it was Mo Yan's... instinctive bloodlust as the Dark Abyss Demon Vine?
Now that the Netherfire Curse is gone, if the Black Mulberry is at its full potential...
"Zi'er..." After hesitating for a moment, Shen Yunhao finally spoke up, "Could you... refrain from using the power of the Black Nether Millet for now?"
"..."
A moment of silence fell over the room.
Finally, Mo Yan nodded, "You're such a brat... I'll listen to you... I don't need it..."
Hearing this, Shen Yunhao pulled the girl in front of him into his arms and hugged her.
"Remember... no matter what happens, no matter what you become, you'll always be my little brat..."
"I know! I know! It's so cheesy every day..."
She was complaining, but the smile on her lips was impossible to hide...
"This place... seems to be still in Polaris Valley..."
"What?"
A look of surprise flashed in Shen Yunhao's eyes, "How did you know..."
Mo Yan closed her eyes for a moment, then opened them. "I... can vaguely sense the aura of the half of my demon body that was destroyed by the gale..."
Hearing this, Shen Yunhao's eyes lit up, and he put his arm around the girl's shoulder, "So, you have a chance to completely restore your cultivation?"
The fact that half of her demonic body was destroyed by the gale beneath the ice abyss of Polaris Valley was a considerable blow to Wisteria!
Absorbing Han Xiaozi's cultivation before his death can only restore her cultivation to the Void Realm level. To completely return to the peak of the Void Realm... further repairs are still needed.
Therefore, Shen Yunhao subconsciously felt that as long as he could find and repair the half of the demon body that had been destroyed by the gale...
But Mo Yan chuckled upon hearing this.
"Do you think I'm a building block that you can just put back together? ... It's already been destroyed. Even if you could find it, it would take time to heal and recover. You might as well rely on yourself... Don't forget, I am the Dark Abyss Vine!"
"..."
Shen Yunhao sighed and rubbed the girl's head, "You've suffered... silly little sister..."
"whispering sound!"
Mo Yan rolled her eyes, but didn't stop Shen Yunhao from rubbing her head. She just observed him for a moment.
"This place must be deep underground, probably very deep, at least several thousand feet deep!"
"Thousands of feet!"
Shen Yunhao was startled and looked around at the damp stone walls: "No wonder this place isn't like the extreme environment in the valley... the temperature is much higher!"
After observing for a week, Shen Yunhao's gaze finally fell on Zhou Qing's corpse: "Let's find a way to get out of here first. This place doesn't look safe..."
Mo Yan nodded, then suddenly paused, frowning as she said, "It seems like the spatial power here is sealed off!"
"No way, how did that teleportation array bring us here?"
Shen Yunhao took out the Illusionary Spirit Shuttle from his bosom and tried it for a while, his expression turning ugly.
"It's really unusable..."
"It seems... the truly strange thing is that ice cave secret realm!" Mo Yan stroked his chin. "Not only can it rewrite time, but it can also ignore the laws of spatial sealing... tsk tsk tsk, it seems we came out too early. There should be even deeper secrets hidden inside!"
Unable to use spatial powers, the two could only explore the cave on foot. Mo Yan walked in front, surrounded by a faint purple light that illuminated the dark environment.
The underground cave was very large and quite spacious, far surpassing the secret caves that Shen Yunhao had stayed in before.
"Wait!" Shen Yunhao suddenly stopped, his gaze falling on a particularly deep scratch on a certain stone wall. "This mark... doesn't seem to be naturally formed; it looks like the claw of some kind of large bird of prey..."
Mo Yan leaned closer, her nose twitching slightly: "There's a faint fishy smell... Judging from the scratches, if it really was a bird, it would have been very large..."
