"Hey,"

The old woman sighed again, her tone full of helplessness and self-blame.

"As people who shoulder the responsibility of protection, we, the so-called armor guardians, feel extremely guilty towards your mother and you!"

Her eyes swept over Ying and Su Chen who were present.

"Over the years, we've been searching for a way to completely resolve this problem, hoping to find a way to purify or guide this power. But unfortunately... until now, we haven't found a perfect solution!"

The old woman paused, and her voice became heavier as she looked at the despair gradually emerging in Li Youer's eyes.

"And you... child, you inherited this bloodline, which also means that you may face a fate similar to your mother's. This power is both a barrier to protect you and a beacon to attract darkness."

She shook her head, her tone full of helplessness.

Li Youer's pretty face, which was originally pale, now lost all its color, leaving only an almost transparent paleness.

Her lips trembled slightly, and she asked with difficulty:

"So, I can only let fate play tricks on me, unable to resist. Will I even end up like my mother...end up like that?"

There was an unconcealable desperation in her voice.

It seems as if the road ahead is dark and there is no light at all.

The old woman looked at the pain and helplessness in Li Youer's eyes, and felt infinite pity in her heart.

She sighed, stepped forward and gently held Li Youer's cold hand. Her voice became softer, but also carried a hint of solemnity.

"Child, fate is not unchangeable. It's just that what you face is much more difficult than that of ordinary people. The power within you is like a double-edged sword. It grants you great potential, but also attracts extreme danger."

She paused, her eyes sharpening a little.

"According to ancient records and our research on similar cases over the years, the special bloodline in your body not only inherits the power of Tibetan cultivators, but also carries a certain... pollution. This pollution is likely the evil genes left by the Nether Demon. They are dormant in your body, coexisting with your bloodline, waiting for the moment to awaken."

Li Youer's heart suddenly sank, as if being pressed down by a huge rock, and breathing became difficult.

Netherworld Demon? Evil Gene?

These words were like cold knives, stabbing into her heart.

"To resolve the hidden dangers in your body, the first thing to do is to force out those dormant 333 Netherworld Demons."

The old woman continued, with a hint of helplessness in her tone.

"But this is extremely dangerous. Nether Demons are cunning and ruthless by nature. Once they feel they are being forced and have no way to escape, they are likely to choose to fight to the death, completely occupying your body, and even... even detonating the evil energy within their bodies, causing irreversible consequences."

Li Youer's body began to tremble again.

She could feel the restless power in her body. Although it was weak, it was real and seemed like it could get out of control at any time.

The old woman's words confirmed her deepest fears.

Those unexplainable nightmares.

Those sudden bouts of irritability.

Thoughts that don't seem to belong to you.

Is it all because of...

Because of the Nether Demon?

"Secondly, even if you can successfully force the Nether Demon out, the remaining evil genes will still exist in your bloodline."

The old woman shook her head, her brows full of worry.

"We need to find a method, a method that can completely purify these genes without leaving any hidden dangers. But this is also as difficult as ascending to heaven. Throughout history, there are very few methods that can completely purify the Nether Demonic Energy, and most of them have been lost."

She looked at Li Youer's pale face and concluded in a heavy tone:

"Child, your special genes make you an extremely dangerous existence. For the Nether Demon, you may be an excellent vessel, or... an extremely important target! They may target you at any time and use the power within you to achieve their goals."

Li Youer felt dizzy as she listened to the old woman's analysis.

Force out the Netherworld Demon and purify the evil genes, every step is full of unknowns and dangers.

It seems like an insurmountable chasm.

She originally thought that her abnormality was just a disease that would at most affect her life.

But I never expected that it would involve such a terrible enemy and such a complicated dilemma.

"How difficult is it to do this?"

?0ー⑵二洰捌⒊0⑼捌

She murmured to herself, her voice filled with a hint of desperate crying.

She felt like a small animal trapped in a quagmire. No matter how she struggled, she would only sink deeper and deeper.

Huan Ying, who was standing by, looked at Li You'er's painful and desperate expression, and his heart was filled with guilt and self-blame.

If it weren't for her, You'er might not have been involved in this crisis.

She took a step forward, held Li Youer's other hand, and gave her silent support.

Then she turned to face her grandmother, with a guilty look on her face, and told her everything that had happened recently.

"Grandma, there's one more thing. The situation may be worse than you think..."

(dabe)

Huan Ying took a deep breath, his voice trembling slightly.

"The ancient Song Dynasty robe that sealed Emperor Lufa...was stolen."

As soon as these words were spoken, the originally solemn atmosphere in the room instantly dropped to freezing point.

The gentleness on the old woman's face disappeared in an instant, replaced by extreme shock and disbelief.

Her eyes suddenly widened, and her sharp gaze seemed to pierce through the welcome, confirming that what she said was true.

"what?!"

The old woman screamed, her voice trembling.

The ancient clothes that sealed Lufa were stolen?

This is a bolt from the blue!

Who is Lufa? He is the Nether Emperor who once nearly destroyed the entire universe!

Even after a thousand years, his power and evil still cast a shadow over the heads of all armored guardians.

"It's true, Grandma."

Welcome to answer in the affirmative, with a heavy tone.

"We have tried everything, but we still haven't found the whereabouts of the ancient clothes, nor the culprit who stole them."

She glanced at Su Chen and continued:

"Su Chen...he suspected that the person who stole the ancient clothes was in collusion with the Netherworld Demon, or even...even a certain force within the Netherworld Demon!"

When the old woman heard Su Chen's name, she turned her gaze to him with scrutiny in her eyes.

But when she heard Su Chen's doubts, the shock on her face became even greater, replaced by a deep worry and fear.

"If...if Lufa is really resurrected because of this..."

She murmured, her voice trembling slightly.

"What should we do?! The entire universe is about to fall into another catastrophe!"

Everyone in the room felt the seriousness of the situation.

The resurrection of Emperor Lufa is not only a personal crisis for Li Youer, but also a crisis for the entire world.

The threat of the Nether Demon seemed to be very close at this moment, making it hard to breathe.

Although Li Haotian and Wu Gang did not speak, their tense bodies and solemn expressions showed their inner uneasiness.

Only Su Chen was still sitting there, looking indifferent, as if all this had nothing to do with him.

He was playing with an empty teacup in his hand, his eyes deep, as if he was thinking about something.

While everyone was panicking about the possibility of Lufa's resurrection, he seemed unusually calm.

"Grandma, don't worry too much."

Su Chen finally spoke. His voice was low and magnetic, carrying a reassuring power.

"Lufa's resurrection...isn't that simple."

He put down his teacup, raised his head, and glanced at everyone present.

"If Lufa truly possessed the ability to resurrect at any time, or if simply stealing the ancient robe could restore his complete freedom, then after so much time had passed, the Nether Demons wouldn't just be engaging in minor skirmishes like they are now. They would have already come out in full force and launched an all-out war."

"This means that the theft of the ancient clothes may only be one of the conditions for Lufa's resurrection. In other words, he still needs to rely on other forces to completely break free from his restraints. And this force..."

Su Chen's gaze fell on Li Youer again.

"It's probably related to the special bloodline in Youer's body."

As the old woman listened to Su Chen's analysis, her originally tense body gradually relaxed.

She carefully thought about Su Chen's words and felt that they made a lot of sense.

If Lufa was truly about to be fully resurrected, the Nether Devil wouldn't be so silent. She looked at Su Chen again, her eyes filled with admiration.

"Yeah, well said."

The old woman nodded slightly, a smile of approval on her face.

"The analysis is very organized and profound. He's worthy of being my grandson-in-law, so smart!"

"grandmother!"

Huan Ying heard this and was already feeling a little nervous due to the threat of Lufa's resurrection.

At this moment, my face turned red because of what my grandmother said.

She shouted at her grandmother in a reproachful manner, with a hint of shyness and helplessness in her eyes.

When Li Haotian and Wu Gang heard the old woman's address to Su Chen and saw Huan Ying's shy reaction, they couldn't help but laugh.

The tense atmosphere eased a little, and light laughter rang out in the room.

Su Chen also smiled slightly, not paying attention to the old woman's joke, but continued to bring the topic back on track.

"Since the power within You'er is likely the key to Lufa's resurrection, she is the most important target for the Nether Demon. As long as we protect You'er and prevent the Nether Demon from succeeding, Lufa's resurrection plan will be hindered."

He paused, a sharp gleam in his eyes.

"As for forcing the Netherworld Demon out of You'er... since she's already the Netherworld Demon's target, perhaps we can... use their tactics against her."

"Just follow the plan?"

Everyone asked in unison, their faces full of curiosity.

It sounds like a risky plan, but it also seems to be the only hope in this difficult situation.

Li Youer's originally desperate eyes were now rekindled with hope because of Su Chen's words.

She looked at Su Chen expectantly, as if he was the only light in the darkness.

"Su Chen...is it really possible? Can I...can I still be saved?"

Her voice was filled with a hint of cautious longing, as if Su Chen's answer would determine her future fate.

At this moment, Li Youer felt that all her hopes were placed on this young man.

The confidence and composure he exuded gave her a glimmer of hope amidst her despair.

Su Chen looked at Li Youer's expectant eyes, still maintaining a faint smile on his face.

"This matter... is actually very simple."

His tone was so relaxed as if he was talking about a trivial matter, but this tone gave everyone present great confidence.

"The Nether Demon wants to use the power within Youer, so we will give them this opportunity."

Su Chen continued.

"We just need to sit back and wait. We don't need to actively look for the Nether Demons. They will come to us sooner or later."

He paused, his eyes becoming serious.
