Danzhen is wicked and will only harm more people in the future. Wanjiao must get rid of her today. However, since she is not very confident, she needs to go back and ask the Ancestral Master about the Peacock Demon.
While pondering, Wan Jiao quickly drew a teleportation talisman and instructed Yun Luo, "Senior brother, you take Dan Zhi back first, and Xiao Jin will help you set up the formation."
Yun Luo frowned, "Who is Xiao Jin?"
Wan Jiao: "The little girl who was taken back by your people, she is my spirit."
"Wanwan, you're not kidding, are you?" Yun Luo asked in surprise, "How could the spirit of the artifact be taken back by my people? They're just ordinary people."
"Senior brother, now is not the time to talk about these things." Wan Jiao said, looking at Dan Zhi, but still speaking to Yun Luo, "Before I arrive, remember not to let Dan Zhen devour Dan Zhi's demon soul."
…
Wan Jiao returned to the villa and went straight to offer incense to the ancestral master. "Ancestor, a new peacock demon has appeared. You must help me."
Because of Wan Jiao's words, the memorial tablet shook violently, and the next second, the incense that Wan Jiao lit gathered into two characters in mid-air: Prajna.
Wan Jiao knew that the patriarch meant for her to enter the Prajna Secret Realm in her dream. She nodded in agreement, then sat cross-legged and swallowed a talisman.
A moment later, she saw her patriarch, Feng Nanshan, in the Prajna Secret Realm of her dream.
Feng Nanshan was different today; his face was unusually solemn, a solemnity he had never shown before, even when it came to his "former lover" Rong Xuan.
Wan Jiao frowned, "Ancestor, you..."
"A new peacock demon?" Feng Nanshan questioned Wan Jiao before she could finish speaking, "Where is Que Lingyan? Where did she go? Did she achieve enlightenment?"
Wan Jiao: "..."
Good heavens, the founder and that Sparrow Feather Smoke are old acquaintances?
"She's dead." Wan Jiao said calmly, briefly recounting the death of Que Lingyan to the Ancestor, then steered the conversation back to the main point, "Ancestor, that Danzhen is ruthless and cruel, capable of even murdering her own mother. Now that she's become the new Peacock Demon, she's bound to..."
Feng Nanshan: "Stretch out your hand."
Wan Jiao was suspicious, but she did as instructed anyway.
Feng Nanshan drew a talisman on Wan Jiao's palm, a kind that Wan Jiao had never seen before. Once the talisman was completed, it disappeared without leaving a trace.
"Ancestor, what kind of talisman is this?"
Feng Nanshan sighed and slowly recounted his past with Que Lingyan.
It turned out that Que Lingyan's cultivation was extremely difficult; it took her over a thousand years to attain human form, and she just happened to be discovered by Feng Nanshan. She was wholeheartedly devoted to good and yearned for enlightenment and ascension. Feng Nanshan felt a connection with her and took her back. The two, a human and a demon, spent a period of peaceful days together. Even Que Lingyan's name was given to her by Feng Nanshan.
At that time, she called Feng Nanshan her master.
At this point, Feng Nanshan's eyes were still a little red. "Speaking of which, the fact that my remnant soul can stay in the memorial tablet for so many years is thanks to her."
Wan Jiao twitched her lips.
Honestly, if she didn't know very well that her ancestor had never married, she might have suspected him...
“Ancestor, what you’re saying has nothing to do with the talisman we just had.”
"You silly girl, you can't rush things. I was just about to say this," Feng Nanshan said, tapping Wan Jiao's head. "This talisman is connected to her demon core. All you need to do then is..."
"..."
Feng Nanshan said quite a lot.
Wan Jiao listened and nodded, looking like she had benefited greatly. "Thank you, Ancestor. I'll be going now."
"Wait a minute," Feng Nanshan called out to her.
Wan Jiao asked in confusion, "Does the Ancestor have any further instructions?"
Feng Nanshan pondered for a long time before saying, "If she has any descendants, treat them well."
Wan Jiao: "Okay."
…
Wan Jiao's worst fears came true.
Yes, despite Xiao Lejin and Yun Luo's best efforts, they were ultimately no match for Danzhen, who was now an even more powerful demon than Que Lingyan had been.
Xiao Lejin was seriously injured, and her spirit returned to the suona.
Yunlu died tragically while trying to save Danzhi, and her soul was scattered by Danzhen.
Dan Zhi suffered even more. Not only was she unable to avenge her mother's death, but she also had to watch helplessly as the woman killed her husband. In the end... filled with resentment, Dan Zhi's demonic soul was devoured by Dan Zhen.
Yun Mu, who had been asleep, was awakened after Dan Zhi was devoured. She came to the living room barefoot and saw Dan Zhen.
Danzhen was wondering why Danzhi's demon soul was so weak when she saw Yunmu. Then, as if she had thought of something, she excitedly asked little Yunmu, "Is your mother's demon soul power all in you?"
Although Xiao Yunmu had only ever met her mother in her entire life, she was not oblivious to danger. She was afraid of Danzhen and instinctively retreated, trying to escape, but was drawn away by Danzhen's demonic power.
"It's all on you, you smell so good." She pinched Xiao Yunmu's neck. "Auntie will send you to reunite with your parents right now... Hahahaha."
As soon as Wan Jiao arrived, she saw the scene of Dan Zhen trying to devour Xiao Yun Mu's soul.
She was ruthless and didn't talk much. She directly activated the talisman according to the method taught by her ancestor.
In an instant, the demon core exploded.
Danzhen wailed in pain, and Wanjiao took the opportunity to snatch Xiaoyunmu from her hands and gently placed her on the sofa. "Be good, Auntie will take you home in a little while."
No sooner had she finished speaking than Danzhen revealed her demon form and angrily rebuked, "You destroyed my demon core, I will kill you."
Wan Jiao looked at her coldly, "It's you, Danzhen, who deserves to die."
He formed a hand seal, summoning the Nine Heavens Thunder, and simultaneously pushed the elixir onto the open-air balcony.
Amidst the rumbling thunder, Danzhen laughed instead of being afraid, "I am the Great Peacock Demon, I'm afraid your Nine Heavens Mystic Thunder cannot..."
