Yaoguang Fairy Path

Ye Shuyao pondered for a moment, shook her head, and said firmly: "No, if we leave from here, I'm afraid we won't be able to find the way out. Besides, there is one thing I haven't done." Her eyes were cast towards the blood pool, as if she could hear the roars of countless souls in it.

Baili Lingfeng and others couldn't help but feel a pang of fear when they saw Ye Shuyao's serious expression. He knew very well that Ye Shuyao had a keen perception and every word she said was not groundless.

Ye Shuyao turned her gaze towards the crowd again. She said to Baili Lingfeng, "Lingfeng, please have everyone find a safe place to wait. If everything goes well, I will meet up with you soon."

Li Yuru's heart tightened when she heard this. Although her injuries had improved, she still felt weak. She said anxiously, "Shuyao, what are you going to do? We're with you. We're partners!"

Ye Shuyao looked at Li Yuru tenderly and said softly, "Yuru, you are injured now, and you don't want to become my weakness, right? I will come to you soon, don't worry."

Li Yuru clenched her hands, her heart struggling. She knew she wasn't strong enough to fight alongside Ye Shuyao. A flicker of determination flashed in her eyes, tears welling up in her eyes as she choked out, "Okay! Yaoyao, you must come back alive to find me."

Yang Tao held Li Yuru's hand tightly, silently comforting her. He looked up at Ye Shuyao and said with a firm look in his eyes, "Shuyao, I know we can't help you much right now, but we will try our best to keep up with you. Next time, we will definitely be able to fight side by side."

A warm feeling welled up in Ye Shuyao's heart. She nodded and said with a firm look in her eyes, "I will. We will definitely fight side by side again. Thinking of Long Wuji's ruthless methods in the illusion, she was unwilling to gamble with the lives of her two friends."

Baili Lingfeng's eyes were sharp, as if he had guessed Ye Shuyao's plan. He turned to the crowd and said in a steady voice, "Everyone, head south to stay safe. If you encounter a demon puppet, remember to block your breathing and don't make any noise."

Obviously, Baili Lingfeng decided to stay and fight alongside Ye Shuyao.

Just as everyone was bowing to Ye Shuyao and Baili Lingfeng to express their gratitude and wish them a safe return, a white figure walked out from the crowd.

Ye Shuyao's peach blossom eyes looked at the person who came. The person who came was Mo Feibai. He smiled and said to Ye Shuyao, "Junior Sister Ye, long time no see."

Ye Shuyao smiled back and said, "Senior Brother Mo, it's been a long time."

Mo Feibai continued, "I'll stay with you," his tone was firm, and it was obvious that he had made up his mind.

Seeing that his junior fellow apprentice had stayed, Helian Yun volunteered without hesitation, "I'll stay too." There was a determined glint in his eyes, and he was obviously willing to face the unknown challenges together with Ye Shuyao.

The four of them stood at the edge of the blood pool, their ears ringing with the shrill roars coming from within. Baili Lingfeng's expression was serious. He walked over to Ye Shuyao and whispered, "Shuyao, this blood evil formation may look ferocious, but I'm afraid it can't be broken by brute force. The souls within the pool have been sealed for countless eons. If you forcefully break the formation, the consequences will be disastrous."

Ye Shuyao frowned. She was well aware of the complexity and danger of this formation. She turned to the others and suggested, "Why don't we try to convert these souls first?"

The three men opposite looked at each other, with embarrassed expressions on their faces.

Helian Yun cleared his throat and said awkwardly, "Junior Sister Ye, we are truly incapable of saving souls. I'm afraid only monks from the Ten Thousand Buddha Sect can achieve such magical powers."
