After nine lifetimes of reincarnation, the yandere villainous heroine descends.

Feng Yangzi looked at Shen Shuchou with a pained expression, as if waiting for him to say something.

Even if it costs him his life, he will use every means to eliminate the injustice done to Shen Shuchou.

At this moment, Shen Shuchou felt as if a heavy stone was pressing down on his heart, making it hard for him to breathe.

He saw in Feng Yangzi something that only existed in the past—ancient paternal love.

Regardless, Shen Shuchou lived steadily by Feng Yangzi's side for twenty years.

Even an iceberg that has never melted for thousands of years should be moved.

But Shen Shuchou also had unspeakable suffering. He was not originally from this world, and even if he died, he would be reborn in the next life.

What should have been a thing of the past, at this moment, Shen Shuchou felt a pang of heartache.

"There's no going back."

Shen Shuchou lowered his head, not daring to look at him, his eyes filled with guilt.

When he finished saying that, there was no severe punishment as he had imagined.

Instead, a large hand gently pressed down on Shen Shuchou's shoulder, as if giving him endless strength.

"Don't be afraid! With me here, no one can put unfair shackles on you."

Feng Yangzi's voice was soft, yet it was full of confident strength.

Upon hearing this, Shen Shuchou felt a pang of bitterness in his heart and looked up to meet that familiar smiling face.

"I'm sorry... Master, it's my fault for being unfilial and failing to live up to your expectations."

Shen Shuchou was about to kowtow heavily after he finished speaking, but was lifted up by a gentle force.

"Silly child, you've been raised by me, how could you be unfilial? It's just that I feel deeply sorry for you."

Feng Yangzi's eyes were filled with a sense of loneliness.

"Senior brother, come back with me, okay? We can be like before."

Zuo Shu's eyes revealed anticipation.

Shen Shuchou didn't speak, but simply shook his head slightly, which also showed his determination.

"Why? Why is this happening? What's so good about her that makes you want to do this, Senior Brother?"

Seeing that her former senior brother still treated her this way, Zuo Shu felt a sharp pain in her heart. She gripped Shen Shuchou's hand tightly, her voice hoarse.

Not only Zuo Shu, but they all couldn't understand why Shen Shuchou was willing to give up everything for a fox demon.

Shen Shuchou fell silent upon hearing this. He didn't know how to say it, nor could he tell anyone about the nine reincarnations.

"Tell me! Why won't you tell me? Please, senior brother, tell me, okay?"

Zuo Shu's face was covered in tears; her crying was heartbreaking.

Shen Shuchou said in a low voice, "Because this is my destiny, something I have had to bear since I was born into this world, an unchangeable fate."

Shen Shuchou's answer was always shrouded in mystery, lingering in the minds of the group.

"Is killing her all we need to do? I don't want my senior brother to do this. Zuo Shu is unwilling."

Zuo Shu became agitated on the spot, her eyes filled with murderous intent. She looked around, but there was only a demonic aura in the room, and no sign of Hu Baibai.

All the murderous intent and boundless hatred in her heart were poured out onto Hu Baibai.

It was Hu Baibai who stole her senior brother; Zuo Shu refused to believe this bullshit fate.

Even now, Zuo Shu still believes that as long as she kills Hu Baibai, everything will return to its original course.

You are not alone, and no one can force you.

Feng Yangzi also couldn't accept this explanation, and didn't ask why. He had to take Shen Shuchou away today.

Shen Shuchou shook his head slightly and said bitterly, "Master, let go! Let me decide my own fate."

Shen Shuchou was extremely reluctant to involve them, but it all seemed like a systematic arrangement from the unseen world.

Now that Feng Yangzi has found this place, Shen Shuchou has a premonition that the final step is about to begin.

Just as Shen Shuchou had predicted, several figures quietly arrived from the outer sky.

An immense aura descended in an instant.

Feng Yangzi's expression changed as he entered the room, and he quickly pushed open the door to look inside.

Several familiar figures stood silently in the high sky.

"Now that Feng Yangzi has found your disciple, hand him over."

An elderly man with white hair said indifferently, his hands behind his back.

Seeing the grim expression on everyone's face, Feng Yangzi asked, "How did you all know about this place?"

When Feng Yangzi came to find Shen Shuchou, he used a secret technique to conceal his aura and whereabouts.

Unexpectedly, the sect members still followed, and Feng Yangzi's face turned extremely ugly.

But he soon understood why he could still be found even though he had hidden his tracks.

His eyes caught sight of a familiar figure behind the group; it was his second apprentice, Song Yuhuan, who was still clutching Shen Shuchou's life tablet.

Why did you do that?

Feng Yangzi stared directly at Song Yuhuan, who was hiding behind him.

Upon realizing he had been discovered, Song Yuhuan's eyes darted around, but then he seemed to remember something and immediately said, "Master, I did this entirely to kill that celestial fox."

"Doing this will only put your junior brother in danger."

Feng Yangzi's face flushed with anger.

"Why? He's the one who's supporting the demon race. He's the one who should die. Senior Brother protected him and left, Junior Sister likes him, and now even you want to protect him. He should have died."

A hint of resentment flashed in Song Yuhuan's eyes.

For some time now, Song Yuhuan had harbored a deep resentment towards Shen Shuchou.

Upon hearing this, Feng Yangzi trembled all over, staring at Song Yuhuan in disbelief.

Feng Yangzi never showed any favoritism towards any of his apprentices; he treated everyone the same, and each of them was someone he had watched grow up.

For Feng Yangzi, these four apprentices are like family. No matter which one of them is in trouble or wronged, he will always be the first to stand up for them.

Song Yuhuan's words were undoubtedly a heavy blow to Feng Yangzi's heart.

"You two can reminisce later. Feng Yangzi, hand over your disciple now."

The white-haired old man interrupted the two.

Feng Yangzi felt a sudden increase in pressure as he faced this person, who was none other than Qiu Shengchun, the current head of the Shangqing Dao Sect.

"That fox demon is not here. My disciple is just a mortal now. I hope the sect leader will spare him."

Feng Yangzi said.

"How dare you! I'm only giving you time because you're an elder of our sect. Your disciple is the culprit who raised the Heavenly Demon. Only by handing him over to me can that fox demon reveal itself."

Qiu Shengchun's aura changed, and he rushed straight at Feng Yangzi.

When Fox White was mentioned again, a barely perceptible glint of greed flashed in his eyes.

Ever since he learned that Hu Baibai was a celestial fox demon, a strong sense of greed has sprouted in his heart.

Once he obtains the demon core of the Heavenly Demon and refines it, his cultivation will surely reach a higher level, and even the legendary Emperor Realm will be within his reach.

Qiu Shengchun knew that Feng Yangzi was notoriously protective of his own, and the reason he was willing to give him time was because he didn't want to push him too far.

Now he is determined to succeed. As long as he takes control of Shen Shuchou, everything will fall into place naturally.

"My apprentices can only be with me."

Feng Yangzi resolutely refused.

He was well aware that handing Shen Shuchou over to Qiu Shengchun would result in inhuman torture.

Do you know what you're doing?

Qiu Shengchun's face darkened.

"I know, I'm just doing what a master should do. My apprentice is not for others to criticize."

Feng Yangzi blurted it out.

"Feng Yangzi, you are blatantly protecting your disciple and colluding with the demon race. As the sect leader, I can execute you on the spot."

Qiu Shengchun said angrily.

The terrifying aura emanating from his words pressed down like a tidal wave.

"Whether it is or not, so what? I'll protect my disciple."

Feng Yangzi remained fearless, facing the powerful pressure head-on.

"Back then, you were willing to give up your future to complete your so-called mission, and your master never blamed you. Now, your master will also give up your so-called future to protect you one last time."

Feng Yangzi said calmly, his hands behind his back. These words were addressed to Shen Shuchou, but also to himself.

His long robes, like hanging clouds, moved without wind.

As the long robe fluttered, an invisible current surged around Feng Yangzi.

The next moment, a terrifying aura erupted like a volcano, sweeping out in all directions like a surging wave.

Upon hearing this, Shen Shuchou trembled, tears welling up in his eyes.
