Myriad City, Guiyuan family.
Ever since the destruction of the Myriad Immortal Pavilion twenty-five years ago, the Guiyuan family's business had been on the rise. The Guiyuan family should have been thriving, but unfortunately, the entire Guiyuan family was shrouded in a sorrowful atmosphere.
In the backyard of the Guiyuan family, there was a room filled with black cloth and white lanterns. A youth was lying on a bed in a deep coma.
The family head, Guiyuan Potian, looked at the youth with a silent expression.
"Is Elder Mo still unwilling to help?"
Guiyuan Potian asked a woman beside him. The woman's eyes were red and it was clear that she had just cried. She shook her head and said, "I've already begged Elder Mo countless times, but Elder Mo is unmoved. Now, he refuses to see me."
Guiyuan Potian sighed and said, "Elder Mo wants an Ice Silkworm Heart every time he takes action. I have searched through all the books but have not found any records of it. I have no idea how he obtained it. Since Elder Mo is unwilling to help, this is Li'er's fate. If there is no change for the better by midnight, I'll send Li'er on his way …"
When Guiyuan Potian said this, he felt helpless.
In fact, over the past few years, many people who had been infected by the evil spirits had been killed by others before they were completely possessed by the evil spirits.
Once the evil spirits completed their possession, the host would become the evil spirits' puppets. The person would become a monster, one that would not recognize family or friends. They would be bloodthirsty and murderous. And the people killed by the evil spirits would be possessed by new evil spirits, making it possible for them to become monsters.
If this continued, Myriad City would be destroyed. Therefore, no matter who it was, as long as they were destined not to be saved, they could only bear the pain and kill.
As long as the person died, the evil spirits would lose their protection, making them easy to kill.
Over the past few years, Guiyuan Potian had ordered the killing of many members of the Guiyuan family. However, when it came to Guiyuan Li, Guiyuan Potian could not bring himself to be ruthless.
Guiyuan Li was Guiyuan Potian's great-grandson, and also one of his most beloved grandchildren. When Guiyuan Li was young, Guiyuan Potian had personally guided him in martial arts.
After some thought, Guiyuan Potian said, "Prepare the carriage. I think it's best I pay Elder Mo a visit …"
Elder Mo was considered a miraculous figure in Myriad City. He had suddenly appeared in Myriad City with a mysterious background. The martial Dao and cultivation techniques he cultivated in were completely different from the Myriad Divine Territory.
Three years ago, a genius of the Paradise Chapter had fallen seriously ill. The Paradise Chapter's sect master had prepared two Ancient Fey bones, but he had failed to get Elder Mo to help him even once. The second time he visited, he was even turned away. Guiyuan Potian did not have much hope of getting Elder Mo to help him.
Furthermore, Elder Mo's realm was unknown and his whereabouts were uncertain. Guiyuan Potian even had a feeling that Elder Mo's strength far exceeded his.
The carriage was ready. Just as Guiyuan Potian was about to set off, a voice transmission talisman lit up in front of him. It was a faint purple light. It was a voice transmission talisman from City Lord Manor. Furthermore, it was personally used by Qin Zhengyang.
"Hmm? What urgent matter does Qin Zhengyang have to personally send me a voice transmission? "
Guiyuan Potian was curious, but when he heard the contents of the voice transmission talisman, his heart palpitated.
Yi Yun! He came out of seclusion!?
This … Guiyuan Potian was overjoyed. Yi Yun, who had vanished for twenty-five years, had once again appeared in Myriad City!
In the days when he could not see Yi Yun, Myriad City had suffered numerous hardships. Only then did Guiyuan Potian realize how lucky Myriad City was to have encountered Yi Yun more than twenty years ago.
"Family Head, the carriage is ready."
An elder who looked like a steward spoke. Guiyuan Potian waved his hand. "There's no need!"
Guiyuan Potian did not even wish to sit in the carriage. With a flash, he flew away!
Myriad City prohibited flying, but Guiyuan Potian was in too much of a hurry. He could not care less as he flew straight for City Lord Manor.
…
"Yi Yun, you are finally back."
Upon seeing Yi Yun, Qin Zhengyang heaved a sigh of relief. Qin Zhengyang's sons were all good-for-nothings. Apart from his youngest son, Qin Wufeng, the other sons did not suffer much. However, City Lord Manor was fine, but the entire Myriad City was in chaos. Qin Zhengyang had been in a terrible fix over the past few days.
"City Lord Qin, I want to see Dong Xiaowan and Fairy Youqin. Are they still alive?"
Yi Yun did not bother with pleasantries the moment he saw City Lord Qin. In fact, he knew that the two women were probably doomed.
Five years was too long for them. There was no way they could endure it.
"You know everything?" Qin Zhengyang was taken aback. From the looks of it, Yi Yun had learned of the situation in Myriad City after coming out of seclusion. "Tell me about their situation. It's a little complicated …"
Qin Zhengyang led Yi Yun through a corridor in City Lord Manor and arrived at the backyard of City Lord Manor. There were two Dao Palace realm guards guarding a huge door. There was a strange lock hanging on the door.
"Yi Yun, an elder with the surname Mo came to Myriad City in recent years. Do you know him?"
"His surname is Mo?" Yi Yun recalled for a moment before shaking his head. "I don't know him."
"Oh? That's odd. " Qin Zhengyang had a look of surprise. "I originally believed that Elder Mo was your friend. He might even be here on your request."
"Why do you say that?" Yi Yun was puzzled.
Qin Zhengyang said, "Elder Mo came to Myriad City and did something that happened to be related to you. Back then, Miss Dong and Fairy Youqin were on the brink of death when Elder Mo appeared. Take a look for yourself …"
Qin Zhengyang waved his hand at the two guards. They took out a key and inserted it into the lock. As the guards twisted the key, the lock emitted a blurry golden light. Runes flashed in the void.
These runes were ancient and mysterious. Following that, the door opened as a bone-chilling frost Qi inundated Yi Yun.
Even Yi Yun, who cultivated in both Yin and Yang and was well-versed in pure Yin laws, could not help but feel his heart palpitate when he felt the frost Qi. What sort of frost Qi was this? It was clearly extremely cold and Yin in nature. It penetrated deep into one's bones but it did not make one feel uncomfortable at all. Even if a mortal came here and took off their clothes to stand in the frost Qi, they would not freeze. They would even feel refreshed.
Yi Yun was astonished that frost Yin laws could be cultivated to such a state.
And when he entered the room and saw the scene inside, he was even more astonished. In the tiny room, there was a distorted space that was isolated from the outside world. Inside, there were two pieces of azure ice.
The two pieces of ice were about the height of a person. There were two girls sealed in the ice.
They were none other than Dong Xiaowan and Fairy Youqin.
Although they were sealed in ice, their faces were rosy and they had abundant lifeblood. They looked like they were asleep.
Through the layer of ice, Yi Yun could clearly sense that they were still alive. Furthermore, their soul fires did not show any signs of weakening.
"This is …" Yi Yun was stunned.
"It's Elder Mo's handiwork. He fed the two girls two Ice Silkworm Hearts and sealed them with frost ice laws, resulting in their current state. However, I'm not sure what the Ice Silkworm Hearts are. After they were sealed in ice, the evil spirits in their bodies stopped growing. Their lives are temporarily preserved. However, I'm curious why Elder Mo only attacked the two of them. "
