Being a talent in the Chusheng Demon Sect

Chapter 892 The Deal with Feixue
In the Xuanling Realm, above the ninety-nine states, an endless celestial river flows through the sky, finally encircling the Heavenly Court, reflecting countless iridescent colors under the sunlight.

Soon, a dazzling light descended into the Heavenly Court and then separated.

Immediately afterwards, True Monarch Feixue stepped out, followed closely by True Monarch Zengcai Qiluo, with Lü Yang and the Supreme Being of the Xuanling Realm beside them.

"not bad."

True Monarch Feixue looked around and then glanced at the Supreme Being of the Xuanling Realm, nodding slightly: "This outer realm of the Dao is indeed remarkable."

The four then arrived at the depths of the Heavenly Court. The Supreme Being of the Xuanling Realm, who was also perceptive of the atmosphere, took the initiative to leave, leaving Lu Yang, True Lord Feixue, and True Lord Zengcai Qiluo in a quiet room. As the door of the quiet room closed, isolating the inside from the outside, True Lord Feixue then looked at Lu Yang.

The next second, she said crisply and decisively:
"Where is Chongguang?"

Upon hearing this, Lü Yang smiled slightly, then spread his sleeves, opening up the void to form a portal, before continuing, "Please, fellow Daoist, enter my cave for a chat."

True Lord Flying Snow set off immediately.

Before long, a vast forest came into view, its shape unchanged despite the fierce winds and frost.

However, upon seeing this, True Lord Feixue raised an eyebrow slightly.

'Not quite right'

'The symbolism of the 'fruition' in this grotto-heaven is too strong, even tending to overshadow it. The environment of the grotto-heaven should be based on the wishes of its master.'

Thinking this, True Monarch Feixue immediately looked at Lü Yang, astonished: 'Given the cultivation and methods this man has displayed, he couldn't possibly be unaware of this principle. So, it can only be that he's doing this intentionally? He has no interest in the [Pine and Cypress Wood]? But then why does he seek enlightenment?'

'Could there be another motive?'

True Lord Feixue's cultivation was undoubtedly very profound. He only glanced at Lü Yang's cave and his deduction was already close to the truth.

Lü Yang seemed to read her mind and suddenly laughed:

"I apologize for the embarrassing situation, fellow Daoist. I have only recently attained the [Pine and Cypress Wood] stage and have not had time to manage my grotto-heaven, which is why the imagery of my grotto-heaven's fruition level is a bit heavy."

"I see."

True Monarch Feixue nodded and did not press further. Lü Yang also made no attempt to explain. Each with their own thoughts, they arrived at the center of the cave.

It is located in the middle of the forest, surrounded by wind and snow.

The first thing they saw was a tea pavilion. The three of them took their seats in order, brewed tea, watched the snow fall, and chatted idly. No one was in a hurry to discuss serious matters.

A moment later, a beam of mysterious light descended.

Immediately afterwards, the light receded to both sides and then subsided, revealing Chongguang with his brows raised high, who bowed to Lü Yang and True Monarch Feixue.

"Chongguang greets the True Lord and the Immortal Lord."

"You are indeed here."

Seeing this, True Monarch Feixue carefully examined Chongguang, then nodded slightly: "True Demons are extraordinary; even ordinary mid-stage Golden Core cultivators would find them troublesome."

"Good, very good."

Immediately afterwards, she looked at Lü Yang, suddenly pointed, and used a beam of spiritual light to envelop the two of them, isolating them from each other, before finally getting to the point:
"To be honest, I have given up hope of Hongyun getting gold this time. He can't beat Angxiao, and with my current strength, I'm afraid I'm not up to the task either."

"Finding another way is imperative."

Upon hearing this, Lü Yang raised an eyebrow, revealing a look of surprise, because in previous lives, True Monarch Feixue clearly did not do this.

At that time, she went to fight [Angxiao] without hesitation.

'Wait, that's not right.'

'In my previous lives, I wasn't like this at all. The reason why True Lord Feixue fought so desperately back then was probably because he had no other choice.'

'But this time is different. Why?'

Lu Yang pondered to himself: 'My certificate is for [Pine and Cypress Wood], which is useless to her, so it's impossible that she wants to be affiliated with me. This means she has ulterior motives.'

'If that's the case, why didn't you contact me before?'

'Why is she only coming to find me now, after Chongguang has proven himself a true demon? So, her so-called search for another path is related to Chongguang?'

First, we can rule out the possibility that True Monarch Feixue intends to change her path. Given her current state, the risks of changing paths are too great, and the benefits are uncertain, making it a losing proposition. It would be easier for her to stick to the path of the Cave Heaven Method and find a True Monarch to attach herself to, based on her choices in her previous life.
The next second, Lü Yang laughed: "Fellow Daoist, your intentions are overseas?"

As soon as she finished speaking, the usually composed and calm Feixue Zhenjun was stunned. Her lips parted slightly, and her beautiful eyes suddenly shrank.

'You guessed right!' Lü Yang chuckled inwardly. 'She wants to use Chongguang to force those great demon saints overseas to submit to her, thus breaking through to the late Golden Core stage.'

The death of Zhengde has already proven the true value of the current imperial restoration.

Imagine if Chongguang, as a true demon, were to wreak havoc overseas, could the Old Dragon Lord protect the other Great Sages of the demon race? The answer is undoubtedly no.

At most, the old dragon king can only protect himself.

In this situation, the other two Great Sages would inevitably have to find a way to deal with Chongguang. At this time, if True Lord Feixue comes up with a feasible method...
'You have a malicious heart.'

Thinking of this, Lü Yang, like Chong Guang, realized Fei Xue Zhenjun's methods: if there is no demand, create demand. Who says that the madwoman can't scheme against people?
Meanwhile, on the other side, True Lord Flying Snow was also secretly alarmed.

'This person seems to know me very well?'

'I've only just begun, and he's already guessed my entire plan. Which True Lord of my Holy Sect has he reincarnated?'

However, this also saves her the trouble of explaining.

"This is also beneficial to you, fellow Daoist."

True Monarch Feixue bluntly stated, "If you want to use the crisis of inner demons to spread the [Five Thunder Heavenly Heart Orthodox Method], targeting overseas regions first is undoubtedly the best choice."

"What fellow Taoist said is true."

Lu Yang nodded, but said with a half-smile, "But fellow Daoist, after thinking it over, it seems that I'm the one putting in the effort, while you just sit back and reap the benefits."

"Isn't this right?"

"We should be mutually beneficial. Taking action against overseas countries is just one of my options. Fellow Daoist, you need to give me a reason that can convince me."

In other words: what are the benefits?
I can help you, but what will I get in return?
Having reached this level, True Monarch Feixue would certainly not utter any words about dual cultivation. If she were to say such a thing, Lü Yang would only angrily rebuke her as a subservient woman.

After all, it's common knowledge that he's not interested in women.

You think you can get rid of me with your body?

There are no doors!

Therefore, before Lü Yang could finish speaking, True Monarch Feixue narrowed his eyes and said in a low voice, "How much do you know about the [Remnant Consciousness of Heaven and Man]?"

"That's right!"

Lü Yang's eyes lit up immediately: 'In my previous life, I knew that True Monarch Feixue also possessed fragments of the [Remnant Consciousness of Heaven and Man], and now I can finally see them.'

Thinking of this, he immediately said in a deep voice:
"May I ask, fellow Daoist, which piece do you hold in your hand?"

This statement mainly aimed to show that he was knowledgeable and shouldn't try to fool him. Therefore, upon hearing this, True Lord Feixue gave a straightforward answer:

"Virtue has its strengths, while form has its limitations. This is called 'Virtue is Complete'."

"However, this fragment is extremely special; it has been placed under a forbidden spell."

"I won the battle and cannot disclose the exact location. So if you really want to know, the only way is to fight me."

"If you win, it's all yours."

At this point, True Lord Feixue finally smiled, her original classical lady-like demeanor fading away, and even her eyes became fiery.

It was as if they wanted to devour Lü Yang whole.

It made him feel a little uncomfortable.

"If you want to fight me, just say so. Why beat around the bush and use the excuse that your [Remnant Consciousness of Heaven and Man] has been placed under a restrictive spell?"

"Fellow Taoist, don't you believe it?"

Upon hearing this, True Monarch Feixue shook his head: "It seems that you are unaware of this, fellow Daoist."

"When the first Demon-Taming Peak Master opened up the Underworld, he used the [Remnant Consciousness of Heaven and Man] as a foundation, so it was perfectly normal for him to set up a restriction on one of the paths."
