I am a villain and have been captured. Why are the fairies asking me to come out?

Even the leader of the Demon Cult was tied up by her own hands. How long can the Demon Cult hold out against such a powerful situation?

Those who were previously pessimistic about the outcome of this war might change their minds by then. Even if there are still some stubborn elements left, the anti-war voices in the sect will no longer be as loud as they are now.

"I know." He nodded.

Lin Luan was used to his indifference, so she said nothing more and turned away.

Yan Mobai finished his meal and returned to his bed to continue practicing.

In the cave, apart from the cold bluestone, there was only a bronze mirror on the table to keep him company.

Being detained here, there is really nothing else to do.

Come to think of it, if Li Yuluo wasn't around these past two days, I would have felt a little lonely...

It’s a pity that he was full of vigor and vitality back then, and all he saw were mountains and rivers. But now looking back, it turns out that the girl who was abandoned by him on that rainy night was the most precious to him.

Life and death are unpredictable now, so no matter what you get, you can only taste it briefly.

His eyes dimmed, and he immediately focused his mind and concentrated on breathing in and out spiritual energy.

In the blink of an eye, three days passed.

During this period, Li Yulo came to see him twice. Perhaps the last experience left a shadow on her. Apart from chatting about miscellaneous matters in the sect, she did not suggest doing anything unnecessary.

The rest of the time, except for three meals a day, Yan Mobai was almost always breathing in spiritual energy and strengthening his body.

In the early morning of the third day, the immortal essence in his body was exhausted, and his physical cultivation successfully reached the threshold of building Yuan.

He knew that when a cultivator reached this level, every small step was a huge leap. Even if the path of body refining was smooth, he would not have much breakthrough in a short period of time.

"Master, the time has come." A cold female voice sounded.

Yan Mobai opened his eyes and Lin Luan was already standing at the door waiting for him.

In her hands were a pair of heavy shackles.

The young man walked down from the stone bed, calmly took the shackles and put them on his hands.

"Let's go." He said calmly.

Chapter 12: Under Yuheng Mountain

As I walked out of the restricted area in front of the door, the scorching sun hit me in the face.

Yan Mobai narrowed his eyes. He was standing on the halfway point of a mountain. In front of him was a steep cliff. He could see the vast expanse of heaven and earth behind the cliff. Mountain peaks rose from the ground in the distance, winding rivers were like azure blue brocade, and the plains were vast and boundless.

Everywhere within sight is the territory of the Yuheng Immortal Sect.

He glanced behind him and saw an ancient stone door where the cave restriction was located. There were dense trees on both sides, and the door might not be visible from a distance.

The mountain breeze was mixed with the smell of green grass and rotten wood, and the green robe rustled in the wind.

Yan Mobai stood quietly for a long time, gazing intently into the distance. Lin Luan stood beside him and did not urge him.

After a long while, he sighed softly, "Take me there."

……

At first it was a rugged and narrow mountain path, but later it became wider and wider, gradually reaching a flat and wide road.

This mountain is located in a remote corner of the outer gate of the Yuheng Immortal Sect. Usually, few people come and go, and it is basically a deserted mountain.

But today was different. In order to catch a glimpse of the true appearance of the legendary demon cult leader, both sides of the road were crowded with Yuheng monks, shoulder to shoulder, with almost no empty space to stand.

The crowd was mostly composed of outer disciples at the Condensation Vein Stage, with those at the Yuan Building Stage making up a minority. If one looked carefully, one could find a few deacons at the Core Formation Stage wearing yellow robes.

Yan Mobai felt countless gazes falling on him from all directions.

With his current hearing ability at the Yuan-building stage, he could already hear the whispers and conversations of those disciples at the Condensing Veins stage.

"...My master always said that the leader of the Demon Cult had three heads and six arms, six eyes on his forehead, and fangs and ears. Now it seems that he is just a young boy."

"How ignorant! With the cultivation level of the Demon Cult leader, wouldn't it be easy for him to regain his youth? Even though he looks like a teenager, who knows how long he has lived and how many innocent lives he has harmed."

"Oh, this devil has committed so many evil things, causing so many families to be destroyed and people to die. Fortunately, my Yuheng Immortal Sect has enforced justice on behalf of heaven, and today I have finally captured this devil!"

"I think killing him is too easy. He should be cut into pieces and his soul extracted and refined. Otherwise, it will be difficult to appease the hatred of the millions of wronged souls in Jiuzhou!"

As for the voice transmissions from cultivators at a higher level, although he could not hear them, he could still guess what they said from their expressions.

Some are curious, some are angry, and some even curse; the noise is endless.

Amid the discussions, the white-haired young man with iron chains on his hands and shackles on his feet suddenly raised his head and glanced over them.

The leader of the evil cult has been notorious for many years. Even though he is now in danger, his power still remains in the hearts of the people.

Wherever his eyes moved, those angry outer disciples were all hushed in fear and dared not say a word.

Soon, the entire mountain road became quiet.

Yan Mobai withdrew his gaze and sneered.

The right and wrong, merits and demerits are all in his heart. As long as he has a clear conscience, there is no need to listen to other people's comments.

Lin Luan, who was walking behind, glared coldly at the outer disciples.

“It’s really embarrassing.”

Even a prisoner scares them so much that they dare not speak. What can we expect them to achieve in the future?

The two continued walking forward, and after passing the previous section of the road, the discussions and insults on both sides increased again.

"A beast with a human face!"

"Go to death!"

"Chop him into pieces and feed him to the spirit beast!"

"..."

With Lin Luanyuan's cultivation level in the fetal realm, he is fully capable of flying in the sky, and in a few breaths he can take Yan Mobai to the inner gate.

But she chose to walk.

Qian Qiuxue really took great pains to let everyone in the sect see what he looks like.

Yan Mobai didn't look at the people on both sides, nor did he pay attention to the scolding, he just walked his own way.

They walked from morning to noon before they reached the junction of the inner gate and the outer gate.

The waves beat against the river bank, making a thunderous roar.

A river hundreds of feet wide stretched ahead. Yan Mobai stood on the shore. Steam was curling above the river and seagulls were flying.

He looked towards the other side and saw a huge and majestic mountain standing in the distance. It almost took up the entire field of vision. The mountainside and above were completely submerged in clouds and his appearance could not be seen clearly.

There are countless pavilions and towers located on the mountainside, with fairy air like waterfalls. You can often see monks flying, leaving bright lights in the air.

"Across the river is the inner gate of my Yuheng Immortal Sect." Lin Luan said.

Compared with the scenery of the inner gate, the mountain and river scenery on the outer gate side suddenly became much more vulgar.

Yan Mobai nodded: "I don't have much ability now, please give me a ride."

Now that there's no one around, there's no need to cruise slowly.

Lin Luan grabbed the young man's arm, wrapped them both with his powerful true energy, and transformed into a ray of fairy light, leaping to the other side.

Yan Mobai only felt a gust of wind blowing past his ears, and when his vision became clear again, he had already arrived at the foot of the mountain.

A golden and jade archway stood before him, several dozen feet high, with a faint fairy light lingering around it, and two mysterious characters were inscribed on it:

Yuheng!

Dozens of figures had already been waiting at the foot of the mountain gate, most of them emitting powerful fluctuations above the Jindan realm.

The slender figure in the lead was Li Yulo, whom he had seen yesterday.

Their eyes met for a moment, and then Li Yulo turned his head away indifferently, as if he was still immersed in the hatred from three years ago.

Then, Yan Mobai's gaze fell on the man beside her.

This person was wearing a black brocade robe, a green dragon jade belt around his waist, and a black-gold crown on his head. His brows were full of arrogance, and even his standing position was almost level with Li Yulo, with a vague aura of confrontation.

Behind him stood many disciples wearing white inner sect robes. Judging from the way they stood, it was obvious that they respected the man in the black robe.

In comparison, Li Yulo's side seemed weak and alone.

Lin Luan bowed to Li Yuluo, "Senior Sister." Then she nodded to the man beside her, "Second Senior Brother."

Before Li Yuluo could speak, the man in black robes clasped his fists and said, "Third Junior Sister, you have been traveling all the way. Thank you for your hard work."

After he finished speaking, he glanced at Li Yuluo beside him with a smile, "It is rumored that Senior Sister and the Demon Cult leader have an old grudge. In order to avoid any more complications, today's matter of escorting the leader to the mountain...why not let me share Senior Sister's worries."

Li Yuluo's hands trembled slightly in her sleeves, but her expression remained normal: "I have already let go of those past events. I won't bother you today, Junior Brother."

After hearing this, the black-robed man smiled even more: "So you've let it go... But why did I hear that after that incident three years ago, the senior sister has been possessed by a demon and her cultivation has not improved at all?"

This sentence was not funny, but the disciples behind him laughed out loud.

"You!" Li Yulo's pupils shrank slightly, his shoulders trembled, and his silver teeth were almost broken.

She was once a genius in the sect. She reached the stage of perfect Dan after only seventeen years of practice, which was much faster than her second junior brother beside her.

But after the incident three years ago, Li Yulo's state of mind was lacking, and her cultivation had always stagnated. Her second junior brother and third junior sister had all entered the Yuantai stage, but she, the eldest senior sister, was still lingering in the Jindan stage. Although others did not say anything, they must have laughed at her in secret.

The second junior brother in front of her coveted her position as the chief and wanted to replace her at any time.

Chapter 13: The Dilemma of the Senior Sister

Li Yulo had difficulty practicing due to his inner demons, and most of the inner disciples knew about it.

It's just that usually everyone considers her face and at most talks about her behind her back.

Now the man in black robe mentioned this matter in front of all the inner disciples, which was undoubtedly exposing Li Yulo's wounds in public.

Yan Mobai looked at those inner disciples. Even the ones standing behind Li Yulo were all silent, with their eyes looking at their noses and their noses looking at their hearts.

Despite such blatant ridicule, no one dared to speak for her, which clearly showed which side the situation in the inner sect leaned towards.

……

Seeing that no one refuted him, the man in black robe was very satisfied.

"Since Senior Sister's inner demon was caused by the leader of the Demon Sect, why not let me escort this demon and give him a beating? This will not only vent the anger of fellow disciples, but also help Senior Sister to eliminate her inner demon, so that there will be no more obstacles on her path from now on."

He seemed to be sincere and said, "In this way, the Sect Master will blame me in the future... What do you think, Senior Sister?"

All eyes immediately focused on the petite figure in the front.

The girl lowered her head deeply and remained silent.

"Senior Brother Wang."

The young man at the back of the crowd tugged at the corner of his senior brother's clothes in confusion, "Second Senior Brother is willing to bear the sect's punishment and go to help Senior Sister resolve her inner demons, why doesn't Senior Sister agree..."

The man called Senior Brother Wang was startled and pulled the junior brother behind him and covered his mouth.

He glanced at Li Yuluo nervously, and seeing that she wasn't paying attention, he sent a voice message to his junior brother, "What do you know? The most difficult thing in the world to repay is a debt of gratitude. Once Senior Sister takes on such a great favor as resolving one's inner demons and rebuilding one's path, there will be no way to repay it."

"If you owe me a favor, you will be inferior to me in everything you do in the future... Senior Sister and Second Brother have always been at odds with each other, so it's inevitable that the other party will use this matter to make a fuss. There's no way she would agree to it."

"Oh……"

The young man nodded, not quite understanding, "Brother, what you said makes sense."

In the past, the eldest senior sister was humiliated by the leader of the Demon Cult, and since then she has been trapped in her inner demons. Logically speaking, if the leader of the Demon Cult humiliates her once, she should also humiliate the leader of the Demon Cult once, and then the inner demons will be resolved.

But how could the leader of the evil cult be bullied so easily?

Now that there is an opportunity, and the righteous sect values ​​friendship, righteousness, and benevolence the most, as long as the eldest sister accepts this favor, she will have no right to object even if the second junior brother takes away her position as the chief of the inner sect in the future.

The boy pondered for a long time and finally figured out the clue. Suddenly, another question popped up in his mind.

"Then why didn't Senior Sister just refuse? Wouldn't it be better if she could get rid of the demon herself without Second Brother having to do anything?"

"That being said, there are some things that Second Senior Brother can do but Senior Sister can't."

Senior Brother Zhang sighed, "The eldest sister is in a high position, and many people are watching her words and actions. If she disobeys the order of the sect master and touches the leader of the Demon Sect, and if it is exaggerated by someone with ulterior motives and the sect punishes her, her position as the chief will inevitably be shaken."

"But..." The younger brother was still confused. "If the elder sister was afraid of the sect's punishment, she could just ignore the inner demon and escort the leader up the mountain. Why is she so embarrassed?"

"You..."
