The whole family went mad, but the junior sister turned the tables and her luck soared.

Hua Yi's eyes are bright and clear when she opens them, so she is very confident.

Yun Yici felt really bad about discouraging him.

After a moment of silence, the emperor said, "Speaking of which, after we came in, Xiao Ci led the way with a lantern, and then I lit the fire."

"So, the guidance can only be seen when it's completely dark here?"

Yun Yici hesitated and said, "No, what we need to find is not a way out, but..."

She stopped talking abruptly.

The dragon holding a candle... the black candle...

That Buddhist master fell here; perhaps he left something behind for the sect.

She gritted her teeth and said, "Let's hold hands. Senior Emperor, please extinguish the fire. I'll give it a try."

Without hesitation, the emperor reached out and grasped Yun Yici's hand.

Rong Xuan then said to Ning Tinglan, "You hold onto Junior Sister, then grab Hua Yi, and then I'll hold onto Hua Yi and grab Junior Brother Mu."

Ning Tinglan exclaimed urgently, "No!"

For the first time, Rong Xuan showed a tough expression and snatched the thread from Ning Tinglan's hand: "Listen to me, I am not entirely made of flesh and blood. No matter if he possesses me or wants to suck my flesh and blood, I will not die."

In the darkness, the changes were too great, and Rong Xuan did not want Ning Tinglan or Yun Yici to take any risks.

The five held each other's hands, and Rong Xuan finally grabbed the black rabbit.

Seeing that everyone was ready, the emperor suppressed his secret joy, took his beloved's hand, and then extinguished the crystal fire in his other hand.

Hua Yi, that clueless little brat, suddenly noticed that the darkness in the distance was surging in like a storm.

He exclaimed in alarm, "What's going on?"

Yun Yici said, "Don't let go. I want to try if we can see the light."

Hua Yi almost burst into tears: "I suddenly have some doubts about what my grandfather said, that he was lying."

"I only remembered the story he told me when I saw how bright it was."

The older generation always tells stories to comfort children.

"Won't we turn black like these black demons after being hit by this black mist?"

Hua Yi started talking nonsense; he had always been proud of his purple scales.

"I can't die here. Ci Ying doesn't even know I like her yet."

Ning Tinglan silently lit a candle for him: "Don't worry, we won't die. I've already talked to your good brother Shi Yan, and you two will compete fairly."

After suffering double setbacks in love and marriage, Hua Yi exclaimed in surprise, "What did you say?!"

"Shi Yan also likes Ci Ying??"

In the instant Hua Yi lost her focus, the black resentment surged back, filling the space once more.

In the darkness, the only warmth they felt was in each other's hands, which were clasped together.

Hua Yi said, "Alright, there's no light at all. It seems my grandfather really did lie to me."

Yun Yici turned her head and met a pair of terrifying, blood-red eyes in the darkness.

She said, "Hua Yi, your eyes are shining."

Hua Yi: "Your eyes are the ones that are shining... Aaaaaah!!!! What is this?!"

Yun Yici immediately clamped the emperor's hand under her arm, then took out "anti-rabbit spray" from her sleeve and sprayed it into the emperor's eyes.

To her surprise, the moment she released the imperial edict, her palm lit up.

A pure and holy Buddhist light transformed into a golden lotus that rose from her palm, illuminating everyone around her.

Bathed in the warm and reassuring Buddha light, Hua Yi, still shaken and smelling strongly of chili peppers, looked around and realized that the demon had woken up at some point.

The black rabbit's open eyes looked very eerie.

Hua Yi wanted to go out, but he dared not make any rash moves.

He couldn't help but say, "Your senior brother is just a demon, and he's not even from the same clan as you. I think all he has to do is look good."

"Because of him, you have a way out but don't take it."

“Let’s just throw him out here. I’ll vouch for Li Zhan’s actions. Once we’re out, I’ll catch another demon and give it to you.”

Most of the demons are like this; when they turn into their original form, they are even worse than human form, with no fighting power whatsoever.

As for words becoming law? That's just a legend.

Ning Tinglan coldly replied, "If it were Shi Yan who was possessed, would you still leave him here?"

Hua Yi said awkwardly, "That's not the same at all."

Shi Yan is the son of the clan leader and has extremely high talent. He is very likely to be the next clan leader, while the lowly E Yao are called E Beasts.

Demon cultivators, reduced to being compared to demon beasts, have no reason to be looked down upon by other demon races.

Yun Yici looked at the lotus flower that floated in front of everyone, radiating Buddhist light.

The illusory golden lotus floated among the crowd for a while, then slowly took flight.

Yun Yici said happily, "It's showing us the way."

The emperor originally didn't take this experience seriously, but seeing Yun Yici's joy, he was happy too.

The emperor decreed, "Since you're already here, go and take a look."

"We might find the missing monk."

Seeing that Hua Yi looked unwilling, he said, "If you don't want to go, then stay here and wait for us."

Hua Yi's expression immediately changed. They were standing on the skin of a tiger, and he didn't want to be left here guarding that skin.

With no objections from the crowd, the Emperor then rode his folding fan and followed the golden lotus.

The lotus flower swayed very slowly, and its light was only enough to illuminate a small area on the folding fan.

However, Yun Yici and the others felt very at ease and gradually let go of each other's hands.

The black rabbit that suddenly opened its eyes remained silent and motionless, bound by Rong Xuan like a statue.

Yun Yici squatted down in front of him and examined him closely, whispering, "Senior Brother Mu, can you hear me?"

"Don't lose to him, don't give him your body."

Yun Yici roughly guessed where this lotus flower was going to guide them.

She both hoped to find the Candle Dragon's Fire and feared finding it.

A layer of mist clouded over the black rabbit's round, large eyes, softening the terrifying crimson and turning it into a beautiful cherry blossom pink.

"Senior Brother Mu?"

The black rabbit blinked: "I'm here."

Mu Yunjian's response startled Rong Xuan and Ning Tinglan, who were originally focused on the lotus flower.

Ning Tinglan asked, "Senior Brother Mu?"

Rong Xuan grabbed one of them with each hand: "Wait, maybe this evil thing is trying to trick us into letting him go."

"Don't believe what he says."

Unexpectedly, the black rabbit said, "Don't let go of me, that black energy is still inside my body."

“I had been struggling with him for control of my body until Xiao Ci summoned the Buddha Lotus. My consciousness was warmed by the light, and I drew new power, which allowed me to break free from him.”

"I don't know how long I'll be sober."

“I heard everything you said.”

“Hua Yi is right. Find a far place to drop me off, and then leave here as soon as possible.”

"I sensed that the black energy invading my consciousness was not ordinary resentment; it was very dangerous."

After Black Rabbit finished speaking, not only Rong Xuan, but even the Emperor fell silent.

Yun Yici reached out and patted the black rabbit's head, saying, "Senior Brother Mu, I have a clear conscience if we go together and return together."

Rong Xuan and Ning Tinglan exchanged a glance and said in unison, "We'll go together and return together! Our consciences are clear!"
