Demonic Dao Fanfiction: Protecting You from Worries for a Lifetime

Xue Yang squinted at Wei Wuxian, a playful smile curling his lips. He retorted, "Your plan is quite clever, but don't forget, even if there really is the Jade Purity Cold Light Stone in this secret realm, your uncle won't let us get it so easily."

Wei Ying, however, showed no fear. He waved his hand, looking confident. He smiled and said to Meng Yao and Fen Hua beside him, "Don't worry, I have a plan."

Meng Yao and Fen Hua frowned slightly, a hint of worry flashed in their eyes, but they still nodded to show their trust.

Wei Ying turned and looked towards the nearby lake, a sly glint in his eyes. He pulled out a piece of talisman paper from his pocket and quickly drew several intricate patterns on it.

"Go!" Wei Ying shouted, throwing the talisman into the air. It ignited in the air, transforming into a dazzling ball of light. Then, a dazzling light emanated from the distant lake, enveloping the four of them.

After the light faded, they found themselves standing in front of a huge stone gate. Various mysterious symbols were carved on the stone gate, as if waiting for their answers.

Meng Yao stood in front of the stone gate, looked at the environment, and asked, "Aying, where did you bring us?"

"Wei Wuxian, did you use the wrong talisman?" Xue Yang asked.

Wei Ying's eyes dodged, and he pursed his lips and said, "Well...I noticed a hint of coldness at the bottom of the lake, so I thought there might be a space underneath, so I used the Sky-Breaking Talisman to break it open. Who knew...I would be sucked in."

Meng Yao frowned slightly, her eyes as cold as ice, and said in a heavy tone: "Aying, you can't be so reckless. What if it's a trap? What if you get hurt?"

Wei Ying smiled nonchalantly, his eyes gleaming with uninhibited brilliance. "Ayao, you're always so cautious, but there are some things where, without taking risks, how can you know the outcome?"

Meng Yao sighed, knowing that Wei Ying had a stubborn personality. She said softly, "It's not that I don't want you to take risks, but I hope you can be more careful. After all, your safety is more important than anything else. Otherwise, your uncle and I will be worried."

"Wei Wuxian, Meng Yao is right. Your own safety is most important. You don't want to be punished by your uncle and made to copy books because of this, do you?" Xue Yang patted Wei Wuxian's shoulder with a playful smile, a sly glint in his eyes. He continued, "Besides, if you are punished, we will be punished as well. You can't just think about yourself and forget about us junior brothers!"

Wei WuXian shook his head helplessly, but couldn't help but laugh. "Got it."

Meng Yao sighed softly and shook her head helplessly, obviously troubled by the dispute between the two.

Meng Yao shook her head helplessly. "Well, now that we're in, let's find a way out first. Ah Hua, have you found anything?"

"We need to decipher the symbols on the stone door before we can open it." Fen Hua explained while observing it, then asked doubtfully, "Aying, what do you want the Jade Purity Cold Light Stone for? Isn't that used by ice-type cultivators? We don't have any ice-type cultivators?"

"Forge a sword!!"

"Sword forging??? Don't you already have a natal sword? Why do you still need to forge a sword, and an ice sword at that?"

"I don't know, I just suddenly wanted to cast it."

"No, just for this reason...you..."

"Okay, stop arguing. Come over here and help me see what the symbol on this stone door is." Meng Yao saw that the two were about to quarrel again and quickly interrupted them.

As soon as Meng Yao finished speaking, Wei Ying and Xue Yang immediately stopped arguing and quickly walked over to Meng Yao and Fen Hua. They began to carefully study the symbols on the stone gate. Xue Yang assisted them, and the two of them continued to exchange ideas.

After some effort, the four finally found the pattern between the symbols. Meng Yao began to tap gently on the stone door according to the pattern. As he tapped, the symbols on the stone door began to light up one by one, and finally the entire stone door roared and slowly opened.

The four of them smiled at each other, their hearts filled with a sense of accomplishment. Then, they stepped forward again and entered another mysterious space behind the stone door.

The space behind the stone door seemed even more mysterious, a faint mist filling the air, making the surrounding scenery vague. The four people walked cautiously into this unknown area, filled with anticipation and vigilance.

"Are you here?" Chaoyang's voice sounded in the fog, with a hint of a mysterious smile.

The four of them were startled and immediately looked around alertly, trying to find the source of the sound. However, the thick fog restricted their vision and made it difficult to see the surroundings clearly.

"Uncle, is that you?" Fen Hua asked tentatively.

"Haha, you little guys really lived up to my expectations." Chaoyang's voice rang out again, as if coming from all directions, making it impossible to determine his exact location.

"Uncle, where are you? We have cracked the symbol of the stone gate and entered the space inside the stone gate." Xue Yang couldn't help but ask.

"Very good, very good." Chaoyang's voice was filled with praise. "However, this is just the beginning. Only if you defeat them can you truly obtain what I left behind. Come on!"

As soon as he finished speaking, several blurry figures suddenly appeared in the fog.

"What's going on?" Wei Ying asked with a frown.

"This is your test," Chaoyang's voice sounded again, "Defeat yourself."

As Chaoyang's voice gradually faded away, the four of them looked at each other, their hearts filled with confusion and tension.

Fen Hua took a deep breath and said calmly, "It seems that we need to face our own shadows in order to truly obtain the treasure left by our uncle."

In that case, let us go hand in hand and surpass ourselves. Meng Yao said so and drew his long sword - "Neck Frost".

A sly glint flashed in Xue Yang's eyes, and he chuckled, "Then let's see who is the real us!"

Wei Ying waved the Blue Moon in his hand and said, "In that case, let's get started!"

As Meng Yao unsheathed his longsword, Neck Frost, the four men assumed combat stances. The blurry figures gradually became clearer, as if they were identical to them, their every movement and expression mirroring their own.

"Are you ready?" Fen Hua asked in a deep voice, his eyes sweeping over each of his companions.

"Of course." Xue Yang raised his lips to a confident smile, the long sword 'Hidden Blood' in his hand flashing with a cold light.

"Then let's get started!" A hint of determination flashed in Wei Ying's eyes, and the Blue Moon in his hand made a crisp buzzing sound.

Meng Yao gripped Neck Cream tightly, his gaze piercing, as if he had seen through the weaknesses of those blurry figures. He said gravely, "Remember, we're not just facing enemies, but also our own inner demons."

Xue Yang chuckled, a sly glint in his eyes, as if he had found a way to defeat these shadows. He brandished the "Hidden Blood" and said confidently, "Then let's see who is the real me!"
