Many things, whether you do them or not, will make you regret in the end, so once you do them, don’t think about turning back.

San San has been using this reason to convince himself.

He thought he had prepared himself mentally, but looking at a room full of former friends who were now standing against him like enemies, he would be lying if he said he wasn't sad, but he would never stop.

"I don't care whether you can understand or not, but I will never regret my decision. I don't want to take the risk of gambling on an afterlife. It's unknown whether he will be a man or a woman, a human or an animal, but he will definitely not be Qingyuan anymore. So I want him to live, at any cost. If there is a punishment from heaven, just come at me."

"You are really crazy." Hua Miaomiao had nothing to say to him.

"Xiuzhu, help me take Master away."

Hua Miaomiao wanted to help Qingyuan up, but San San stood by and did not stop her.

"It's no use. You can't get out."

Hua Miaomiao didn't want to pay attention to him. Seeing that Xiuzhu didn't come forward, she looked back in confusion.

"Xiuzhu?"

Xiuzhu felt a little reluctant, but had to tell her the truth.

"He's right. There is no exit here. Pi Fu and I have searched every corner. We must be trapped in some formation."

Looking at the formation that trapped these two people, it's easy to guess who did it. This person really only chooses to trap his own people.

Hua Miaomiao was so angry that she smashed the bed. She had never felt so aggrieved before. She couldn't get out of here even if she tried to fight him.

"What does he want to do? If he has the guts, why not come out? Why is he hiding like a coward?"

Pi Fu pulled her hand over to check, and fortunately it was only slightly red and swollen.

"Calm down and don't panic."

Hua Miaomiao grabbed Pi Fu with her backhand, as if she had grabbed the only life-saving straw, "Pi Fu, please help me look after Master, please, save him."

"Okay, I'll take a look first, don't worry, okay?"

Pi Fu checked Qingyuan and was shocked. Qingyuan's internal energy was very weak, and he was indeed at the end of his life. But there seemed to be something else in his body that was keeping him alive.

Pi Fu was unsure for a moment, so she asked San San: "What did you do to him?"

"There are other souls in his body to maintain the normal functioning of his body. And..."

He hesitated, not knowing how to continue.

"And provide Qingyuan with spiritual cultivation, right?"

Shi Hu took over his unfinished words and explained.

"This method of having two souls in one body and using one soul to nourish another is not uncommon, but usually the weaker one is absorbed by the stronger one, or the stronger one actively provides for the weaker one. How did you do it? Could it be the group of unconscious people outside?"

San San didn't answer, but the expression on his face said it all.

When they thought of the group of ghostly people outside who looked like zombies, everyone's expressions looked unhappy.

"Who are those people? Ordinary people you captured?"

"No, those are the outer disciples of Cang Cui Mountain. They were all found by Yuan He."

San San tried to defend himself, but found it pointless. Whether it was an ordinary citizen or a disciple of Cang Cui Mountain, didn't they all have the same life? Although he didn't do it himself, he acquiesced and adopted his method, as if there was no difference.

Those disciples would never have thought that their most beloved teacher actually treated them as food.

The room fell silent for a moment. Yuan He made them see the worst side of human nature. They each found a corner to stay in, and no one wanted to speak.

Yu Yao and Wang Chao, who were guarding the mountain, waited for many days but the two did not come back. They had a vague suspicion that something bad was going to happen, but because they had promised Pi Fu not to go up the mountain without permission, they could only keep their troops in place and continue guarding.

After this period of recuperation, Wangchao's injuries have improved a lot. Although his complexion is still not good, the wounds no longer flare up as often as before.

Wang Chao was lying on the bed with his eyes closed, resting. Yu Yao was sitting next to him, chatting with him in random topics.

"Wangchao, do you think the two of them can defeat Yuanhe?"

"Don't worry, they are so powerful. No matter how capable Yuan He is, he is just a mortal. There will be no problem."

His voice sounded weak, probably because he was sleepy.

Yu Yao thought he was feeling uncomfortable again, so she stood up and looked at him nervously.

"Are you okay with your injury? Why don't you go back inside and recuperate?"

"It's okay. You've been bored in the box for too long. It's also boring for you to be alone. Let me keep you company."

Yu Yao felt relieved when she saw that he was really fine.

"Are you sure you're here to accompany me and not waiting for someone?"

Yu Yao just said it casually, but he didn't expect Wang Chao to be so sensitive that he sat up all of a sudden.

"Don't talk nonsense! Didn't I just say that I'm not worried about her anymore?"

"I'm talking about Ji Hanyan, who do you think I'm talking about?"

Yu Yao looked at him with a hint of ridicule. He really didn't expect that Wang Chao would also have a moment of enlightenment. He felt like an old father whose son had just grown up.

"..."

"Come to think of it this way, your attitude towards Senior Pi Fu seems to be different from that of other girls."

"What's the difference?" Wangchao's voice had already begun to rise, showing that he was extremely nervous.

"I've never seen you so nervous around other people."

"That's because she stripped me right away. Is that something a woman could do? She... never mind. Let's not talk about it."

Seeing the increasingly obvious smile on Yu Yao's face, Wang Chao turned his head away in annoyance.

"Wangchao, honestly, if you meet Ji Hanyan again, if she really helped Yuan He do many wrong things, what would you do?"

"She suffered all that because of me. If she really became Yuan He's accomplice, I... cough cough!"

Wang Chao felt depressed for a moment, and his heart felt suffocated and he started coughing again.

"Okay, okay, let's not talk about her anymore. Let's talk about Senior Pi Fu."

"Little fish!"

Yu Yao's hearty laughter came from the house.

In the darkness outside the window, a woman in a nightgown and a veil had a trace of sadness in her eyes.

I want to see you well, but I am not willing to see only you well.

"Who's outside?" The two people in the house noticed the unusual noise outside and got up and went out to check.

"Who are you?" Yu Yao shouted.

"I..." Ji Hanyan hesitated. She didn't want Wangchao to see her current appearance.

She could deliberately lower her voice and say, "I'm here to give you two a piece of advice. Xiuzhu and Pifu have been captured, so you'd better stay away from Cangcui Mountain as soon as possible."

"Impossible! How can Yuan He do this? Why should I trust you?" Yu Yao retorted without even thinking. This woman was dressed strangely, acted strangely, and spoke evasively, which was really suspicious.

"Believe it or not, I've told you. If you don't want to die, leave early."

Ji Hanyan was about to leave after she finished speaking, but Yu Yao wanted to keep her to ask her questions clearly, so he started fighting with her.

There was a huge disparity in strength between the two, and Ji Hanyan soon fell into a disadvantage.

Wang Chao looked at her figure and vaguely guessed who she was, so he stopped Yu Yao.

"Let her go."

"But……"

"She has said everything that can be said. She won't tell us what cannot be said even if we kill her."

Ji Hanyan thought he didn't recognize her, so she bowed to him to express her gratitude.

"Your master is not a good person, leave him."

Ji Hanyan's body stiffened, and when she looked up again, her eyes were filled with tears.

"Did you recognize me?"

"Yes."

"Don't you blame me? I put a ban on you, took you into the mountains, and almost killed you."

"Don't blame me. At that time, you didn't know what Yuan He had done."

Ji Hanyan thought to herself, I didn't know then, so I didn't blame you. But now that I know clearly and still help the tyrant, is that unforgivable?

"I know you are a man of your word, but some people and some things cannot be judged unilaterally. You are very smart and have lived longer than I have, so you should understand this. Don't let foolish filial piety blind your heart."

Ji Hanyan didn't expect Wangchao to be so calm and concerned about her. However, she was no longer the same person she used to be.

"Trust me, I didn't lie to you."

"I believe you. But I can't leave."

"Why? Just because of that witch named Pifu? Do you like her?"

Even the slow-witted Wang Chao could hear the bitterness in her tone, and he felt a little displeased.

"If it was the Ji Hanyan from before, she wouldn't have asked such a question."

Ji Hanyan smiled bitterly. Yes, since when did she become so worldly and narrow-minded.
