As soon as Mo Yan said this, everyone felt something was off.
The anger in the wisteria-covered girl's eyes had not subsided, but a suspicious blush appeared on the tips of her ears. This unusual confrontation vaguely concealed a bond that others could not quite understand.
Shen Yunhao ignored her stubbornness, and a glint of light flashed in his eyes. A transparent bead, seemingly containing an endless ocean, slowly emerged.
The rich and pure water elemental fluctuations spread out like the tide, quietly cleansing the surrounding air that had become polluted by the battle and bloodlust.
"As expected, it's Han Hai Xin..."
Ouyang Jingfeng nodded. Based on Shen Yunhao's performance during this period, he could be considered a leader among the younger generation. No wonder that old guy from Beihai would extend such an important olive branch.
Seeing Mo Yan's gradually weakening aura within the formation, Shen Yunhao did not hesitate. He drew out a gentle yet azure blue water wave, which slowly flowed towards Mo Yan within the formation's light barrier.
Wherever he passed, the wisps of bloody malevolent energy in the air were instantly purified and dissolved. It seems that Shen Yunhao's claim that he could break free from the control of evil spirits and blood energy was not an exaggeration.
However, Mo Yan's reaction to this power was unexpectedly intense.
"Get out! Don't touch me!"
The girl was like an enraged young beast, her voice sharp. Several dim wisteria vines suddenly rose up and struck the blue water with precision, actually scattering and forcing it back!
The water ripples dispersed, turning into countless sparkling particles of light, but failed to touch her in the slightest.
Shen Yunhao felt a pang of pain in his heart, but could only sigh helplessly.
She did figure it out after all...
The blue light I released not only had the effect of dispelling evil spirits and blood energy, but also contained... the healing power of the Vast Ocean Heart!
What would normally be a normal healing effect is clearly ineffective here.
Once she accepts this power, the seemingly hostile relationship between her and Shen Yunhao will be instantly torn away, confirming their connection.
Even now, with Shen Yunhao standing right in front of her, she still stubbornly tries to sever all ties with him...
Seeing that the girl's stubbornness was flaring up, Shen Yunhao sighed deeply.
"Trying to get rid of me now? Too late..."
The azure bead disappeared into Shen Yunhao's brow. Shen Yunhao turned around and bowed deeply to Ouyang Jingfeng and the other leaders of the righteous path.
“Pavilion Master Ouyang.” Shen Yunhao’s voice was clear, as if he were stating something perfectly ordinary, “It seems that it is impossible to expel the blood energy outside. I implore you, Pavilion Master, to allow this junior to enter and expel it within the formation!”
"..."
Upon hearing this, almost everyone's eyes widened, and they vaguely doubted their ears.
"What? Did he just say he was going into the formation?"
"Is he insane?!"
"He doesn't think that just because the demonic vine is suppressed by the formation, he can't do anything to him, does he? This is a true Great Demon of the Void Realm; he could be killed with just a breath!"
Before the bigwigs could speak, the crowd below erupted in uproar.
"Nonsense!" Nie Qingshuang was naturally the first to stand up and rebuke him sternly. "Do you even know what you're saying? Pavilion Master Ouyang, this boy is talking nonsense, ignore him!"
Ouyang Jingfeng also frowned and said in a deep voice, "Shen Yunhao, this matter is too absurd. Not to mention whether you can successfully purify her if you go in, the key is that once you enter the formation, your life and death will be hanging by a thread. In front of the Taixu Realm demons, no one can protect you."
Mo Yan in the formation also suddenly raised her head, her face full of astonishment.
Seeing everyone's reaction, he burst into laughter and deliberately provoked them, saying, "Fine! If you come in, I promise... I won't kill you!"
However, in the face of everyone's opposition, Shen Yunhao simply smiled slightly.
"You can all rest assured."
His gaze swept over the crowd, finally settling on Ouyang Jingfeng, and he said with absolute certainty, "She would never kill me."
“Oh?” Ouyang Jingfeng raised an eyebrow. “Why are you so sure? You should know that evil creatures are influenced by blood energy and have no rationality whatsoever. The fact that they didn’t attack the cultivators in the city just now could very well have been an accident.”
After a moment of silence, Shen Yunhao took a deep breath, raised his head, and said loudly, "Because... I'm the one who released her! I know her!"
"..."
"..."
"..."
If the attempt to enter the formation just now was merely a minor blunder that slightly surprised everyone, then these words were truly earth-shattering!
The entire Wanren City fell into a deathly silence, so quiet you could hear a pin drop. Even many high-ranking members of the righteous path were speechless, stunned by this sudden confession.
The first to react was Elder Qiu Hanmo of Medicine King Valley. He took a step forward and pointed at Shen Yunhao, "What did you say?! You released it? You mean, the demonic vine that my martial uncle sealed away back then, you released it? And that's what caused today's disaster?!"
Shen Yunhao turned to Qiu Hanmo and sighed, "Fundamentally speaking, it was indeed because I released Zi'er that this disaster has occurred... This matter has nothing to do with Medicine King Valley, and I, Shen Yunhao, will bear all the responsibility!"
An eerie silence fell over the room once again.
The source of the disturbance in Wanren City, which attracted the high-ranking officials of the seven major sects and almost caused a major disaster, turned out to be this young man who was highly praised by Pavilion Master Ouyang and possessed the most precious treasure of the North Sea Dragon Palace.
After a moment of stunned silence, Daoist Qianhe could hardly contain his smugness. He stepped forward and laughed loudly, "So that's how it is! So that's how it is! Elder Qiu, the Medicine King Valley sealed the Demon Vine back then out of necessity. Perhaps there were some mishandlings, but there's no need to bring up the past!"
Since this young man has confessed that he is the culprit who released the Demonic Vine and caused the current situation, then so be it. Pavilion Master Ouyang, suppress and kill both the Demonic Vine and this young man here to prevent future troubles and to give the righteous path of the world an explanation! I wonder if Palace Master Nie…”
Overjoyed, Daoist Qianhe decided to drag Guanghan Palace into the mess as well.
However, before he could finish speaking, he felt a chilling killing intent lock onto him instantly!
Turning her head, she saw that Nie Qingshuang's beautiful face, which was as cold as ice, was now covered with frost, like a volcano about to erupt.
"Chizuru!"
Her voice was icy cold, "Are you implying that my Guanghan Palace is also a demonic sect? Or do you think that the entire palace should be convicted and killed on the spot by you, an elder of the Taixuan Dao Sect?"
This is too much to bear. Even though Daoist Qianhe is an elder of the Taixuan Dao Sect and holds a prestigious position, he would never dare to easily accept such consequences!
Daoist Qianhe was intimidated by Nie Qingshuang's imposing aura. His throat tightened, and he swallowed the rest of his words. A hint of embarrassment flashed across his face as he touched his nose and said, "Palace Master Nie, you flatter me. I had no such intention. I was merely stating the facts..."
Seeing Qianhe Daoren suffer a setback and retreat, Nie Qingshuang let out a heavy snort before turning her terrifying gaze back to Shen Yunhao in the air.
The chill in her gaze was even greater than before, almost freezing Shen Yunhao in place. She spoke each word clearly, her voice like eternal ice, resounding throughout the entire hall:
"Shen Yunhao!"
"You'd better give me a reasonable explanation today! Otherwise, I will personally clean house without anyone else needing to lift a finger!"
