Li Muyang walked straight into the courtyard and closed the gate behind him.

Then, he sat down in front of Yan Xiaoru.

In the hallway, there was a small bamboo and wooden table where Yan Xiaoru was savoring her tea, looking elegant and comfortable.

Across from her, a cup of hot tea was already prepared.

Li Muyang directly took a seat, but he didn’t touch the teacup in front of him.

Having experienced the cunning and troublesome demonized Yan Xiaoru before, he dared not gamble on whether the tea had been tampered with.

Seeing Li Muyang not drinking the tea, Yan Xiaoru smiled but didn’t say anything.

She simply took the teacup from in front of Li Muyang, drank half of it in front of him, and then replaced the remaining half back in front of him.

Their gazes met, and Yan Xiaoru raised an eyebrow, gesturing for Li Muyang to drink.

But what kind of person was Li Muyang?

Having thick skin was always one of Li Muyang’s traits.

He simply ignored Yan Xiaoru’s provocative and playful smile, as if he didn’t understand her hint, and just started talking on his own.

“Are my parents also in this courtyard? It’s quite warm here, not cold at all.”

The northern hemisphere was already in the bitterly cold winter season, and Jiuyuan City, a small rural city, was even freezing cold.

But Yu Chan, living here, managed to shift the seasons in the courtyard, bringing warmth.

This is the power of a cultivator in the Heavenly Eternal Realm.

They can even change the seasonal phenomena in a small area and have simple interactions with the Heavenly Dao.

If the Purple Mansion Realm is stepping through the doors to the Immortal Path, then the Heavenly Eternal Realm is already taking a significant first step on the path to becoming immortal.

While speaking, Li Muyang also observed the Yan Xiaoru and the small courtyard she resided in.

From the vague memories of his former life, this courtyard belonged to a Zhao family in Jiuyuan City.

In Jiuyuan City, although the Zhao family was not very prominent, they had some savings and were considered a moderately wealthy family.

The courtyard had three sections, and the family also had two maids and owned a horse.

However, the current master of the house had left this place, and according to the intelligence Li Muyang had gathered before, they had been bought off with silver coins by Yan Xiaoru.

Although Yan Xiaoru was known for her brutal deeds as a disciple of the Thousand-Eyed Blood God sect, she hadn’t completely turned into a mad demon, and she didn’t kill indiscriminately when things could be settled with silver coins.

This was also one of the reasons Li Muyang was desperate to see her.

He was eager to know to what extent Yan Xiaoru had gone mad after becoming demonized.

Facing Li Muyang’s searching gaze, Yan Xiaoru just smiled slightly and said: “Your in-laws are in the inner courtyard, well attended by caring maids. As long as they don’t leave this courtyard, whatever they want, I try my best to fulfill.”

“Fine silks, exotic delicacies, even if Jiuyuan City doesn’t have them, I’d send people to Tianjiao City to buy them.”

To Li Muyang’s parents, Yan Xiaoru, now demonized, boldly referred to them as “in-laws”…

Li Muyang paused slightly before softly sighing, “So you’ve abducted them here, what is your intention?”

“Plotting for the Startling Swan Immortal Sword? Then you could have taken action against me while at the Outsider’s Ark.”

“But other than the Startling Swan Immortal Sword, what else on my parents could possibly interest you?”

Li Muyang was extremely puzzled, and he needed to confirm this matter.

Yan Xiaoru then picked up the tea cup, downing the half cup of hot tea that was in front of Li Muyang in one gulp.

Afterwards, she refilled the cup for Li Muyang, first drank half herself, then pushed the remaining half toward Li Muyang.

At the same time, she opened her mouth to speak: “Mu Yang, having Yu Chan come to Jiuyuan City to scout, you should already know? Your parents are entangled with a mysterious entity.”

“An ancient and mysterious fox immortal, unknown from where it originated, but it holds a cunning power not found in the mundane world.”

“The divination through the Leading Star Technique suggests that there is a high likelihood that this fox immortal possesses a living Divine Spirit Heart.”

Yan Xiaoru spoke, smiling at Li Muyang, “Muyang, you are well aware what a living Divine Spirit Heart means to me.”

“…” Li Muyang remained silent.

Indeed, things were as he had guessed.

Yan Xiaoru came for the heart of the fox immortal.

A living Divine Spirit Heart is a crucial catalyst for Yan Xiaoru to refine the Immortality Elixir.

As the living corpse of the Thousand-Eyed Blood God disappeared, leaving only a blood eye behind, Yan Xiaoru lost her catalyst.

Only now, with the Leading Star Technique showing her the way, has she come seeking the fox immortal.

But…

“Why didn’t you tell me about this?” Li Muyang asked perplexed, “I also want to help you find a living Divine Spirit Heart, if you tell me, I can help you.”

However, no sooner had he finished speaking than Yan Xiaoru chuckled and shook her head.

“It’s not so simple. That fox immortal has a direct and crucial interest relationship with you and your sister.”

“Although the divination result from the Leading Star Technique is vague, there is a suspected blood relation between you.”

“Would you really help me?”

Yan Xiaoru smiled, looking out at the sky, “If you were going to help me, you wouldn’t have brought Aunt Tantai along.”

As Yan Xiaoru’s words fell, Li Muyang’s expression changed slightly.

Had he really not deceived Yan Xiaoru?

But even if he hadn’t deceived her, her bringing it up so quickly… did she no longer want to discuss it?

Was she planning to break off relations?

Li Muyang watched Yan Xiaoru in silence, wary and frowning.

However, contrary to his expectations, Yan Xiaoru, who brought everything into the open, did not make an immediate move to kill him, but instead stared at his face and burst out laughing.

“Why, Muyang? With that look on your face, do you think I’m going to brutally attack you and then take you hostage and flee?”

Yan Xiaoru laughed so hard that her body trembled, her ample chest also shaking vigorously.

She was laughing very happily, with absolutely no regard for image or decorum.

Looking at Li Muyang’s cautious and serious face, Yan Xiaoru giggled, “But I must say, your two-year-old face, cutely furrowing your brows like an old soul, is rather adorable.”

“Don’t worry, Muyang, I won’t make a move against you. You are my most beloved little man. I have only fallen into demonization and changed in temperament, but I haven’t forgotten you.”

“As long as you don’t strike first, I won’t make a move against you.”

Yan Xiaoru continued looking at Li Muyang with a smile, “Would you ever harshly handle a woman you love?”

Yan Xiaoru asked a heart-wrenching question.

Li Muyang was slightly silent, looking up outside the house.

A dozen sinister streams of Demon Path Evil Qi rose within Jiuyuan City.

Following them, the presence of Dan Taiming, the Spirit Monkey Great General, and the twin sisters Yinqing and Yinling ascended.

One Heavenly Eternal Realm and three Purple Mansion Realms, a power sufficient to traverse the Cultivation World, yet now facing a formidable enemy.

Each of those dozen sinister streams of Demon Path Evil Qi had at least a Purple Mansion Realm cultivation.

Among them, one Demon Cultivator’s aura was undoubtedly of the Heavenly Eternal Realm.

Seeing this scene, Li Muyang’s pupils suddenly constricted.

“Where did you find so many Demon Cultivators?”
