"Huh?! The queen can't sense her offspring!"

The man in black summoned the Demon Heart Queen Worm in his body. The queen worm was still intact, proving that the sub-worms were not dead, but he could not sense the existence of the sub-worms. He had never encountered such a situation before.

The man in black thought for a moment and opened the prison behind him. An old man with disheveled hair and dirty face was lying on the ground with broken limbs and a weak breath. He kicked the old man away from his sight, came to a corner of the wall, stretched out his hand, covered a brick and injected magic power.

Soon, a wall in front of him disappeared, revealing a black barrier that was only wide enough for one person to pass through. The man in black seemed to be very familiar with this area and walked straight in. The moment he entered, the barrier disappeared and returned to its original appearance.

Behind the barrier was a rather large cave. A group of people were locked up in the cave, looking numb. If Wu Xiao were here, she would be able to tell that the people locked up here were her people...

The man in black ignored the Wu clan members and came to a stone chamber and knocked on the door.

"Come in!" A gloomy voice came from the stone chamber.

The man in black walked in, bowed respectfully to the red dragon coiled in the stone chamber, and reported the situation outside:

"Master Demon, those two humans have fallen into my trap, and the Demon Heart Worm Gu has been planted on one of them. But the strange thing is that those two people seem to have some magic weapon to hide. They disappeared in front of me, and I can't find out..."

"Oh? The Demon Heart Queen didn't find any trace of them either?"

"No, and when the Demon Heart Worm Gu was first planted, the mother worm was still very active. I guess the child worms were devouring that person's soul. Just now, the mother worm suddenly stopped moving..." The man in black summoned the mother worm out again to examine the red dragon in front of him.

“Try to control the queen insect and see if you can contact the daughter insects…” The red dragon said angrily, “Those two humans actually helped Long Ao destroy my main soul in his body. We must not let them go!”

That's right! The demon soul remaining in the red dragon in front of him was also Ju Mo. In the last battle between demons and monsters, the demons lost miserably. After Ju Mo was seriously injured by the powerful monsters, he forcibly split his soul into two halves. The main soul parasitized on Long Ao, and the split soul parasitized on this ordinary red dragon.

But just when the main soul was about to take over the body successfully, it met Pei Yun and Long Qi, causing the plan to fail.

As for the split soul in the red dragon, he did not give up, but it was only a split soul after all, and the soul was too weak. In order to nourish the soul and adapt to the body of the red dragon, he announced to the outside world that he was practicing in seclusion, and then looking everywhere for treasures that could strengthen the soul.

"It's a pity that the White Fox Clan's treasure, the Chaos Pearl, is missing. Otherwise, it would be the best treasure for nourishing the soul." Ju Mo sighed regretfully, "Now I can only rely on the help of the Wu Clan. The Wu Clan are all soul cultivators. Their skills can help me recover my soul as soon as possible..."

"Master Demon Lord, the fish that was caught in Wushan back then, the second disciple of the great wizard, is now in the Dragon Clan. Her purpose is to do this. If she reveals the truth..."

"This is the barrier I created. It is difficult for outsiders to find it. Even if they find it, they don't have magic power and can't open it to enter. If this person is really so reckless, then we can only fight to the death and kill all her tribesmen outside. Then there will be no evidence..."

"Master Demon is right."

"What you have to do now is to go out and find those two humans. It would be best if you can control them to work for me. If you can't control them, just kill them directly. As for the witch, wait until she leaves, and then take the opportunity to bring her here. Over the years, the people of the witch tribe have become less and less useful, and nearly half of them have died..."

"Yes." The man in black, Long Ying, bowed and left the stone chamber...

In the space——

As soon as Pei Yun flew into the space spirit core, the insects in her soul stopped sucking and froze in place without moving. She felt relieved but also a little lost.

Although her head no longer hurt severely but only slightly, it was obvious that the Space Spirit Core was unable to kill the worms in her soul. Moreover, although the worms had stopped sucking her soul, the evil energy they emitted was still constantly filling her mind and body.

She closed her eyes tightly, sitting cross-legged in the space spirit core to practice the Breathing Skill, but her face and forehead were still sweating. As the demonic energy continued to invade, a crack appeared in her Dao Heart——

"Fifth sister, please let Wan'er go! She is just a mortal, not a witch at all. She has never killed anyone. Why should she suffer the sin that she should not have to endure because of her identity in her previous life?!" Pei Shi knelt in front of Pei Yun and begged bitterly.

At this moment Pei Yun seemed to have returned to Qianwen City. She had just rescued Li Wan and learned that Ye Li was Li Wan's previous life.

"Pei Yun, is this the cultivator who always talks about saving the people of the world?! Look how hypocritical you are! What did I do wrong? Did I kill anyone? Did I work for the demons? Why do you want to kill me before I have done anything wrong? I am the people you mentioned! Is this how you treat me?" Li Wan said to her sarcastically with tears of blood.

Pei Yun's eyes flashed with the images of the mortals who were massacred by Ye Li. The corpses were scattered all over the ground, the blood dyed the entire city wall red, and countless wronged souls and mortals were wailing in pain beside her ears...

"No! No... I must kill you. The thing I regret most in my life is that I couldn't kill you in advance... I want to kill you..." Pei Yun muttered to himself, raised the sword in his hand, and slashed it forward.

The next moment, Pei Shi stood in front of Li Wan, and the sword left both of them seriously injured and lying on the ground.

"Fifth sister, I always thought you were the one who understood Wan'er and I's situation the most. I didn't expect that you are just like those ordinary cultivators, looking down on mortals. Are their lives so cheap?"

"Pei Yun, Pei Shi and I are innocent. We have done nothing wrong. But because of your prejudice, we have to bear the blame that is not ours and pay with our lives for it. Aren't you hypocritical? You killed the people you mentioned. What qualifications do you have to say that the demons are extremely evil? What qualifications do you have to criticize the demons? What's the difference between what you are doing now and what they are doing?"

"Save me! Save me!"

"The demons are attacking! Run away..."

The tragedies of the world were wailing everywhere, and Pei Shi and his wife were staring at her with their eyes wide open. Countless illusions appeared before her eyes, making Pei Yun's heart more unstable. Her mind was scattered and her inner demons gradually emerged...

At this time, Ye Li appeared in front of Pei Yun. She raised her hand and a new illusion appeared in front of her eyes. There were all kinds of bullying and bullying in the mortal world, and some people who had fought with Pei Yun and were killed by her. They had also done good deeds and saved people...

"Pei Yun, how do you know that the mortals you saved are good people? What if they are bullies in the world? If you saved them, are you helping the evil? Also, you have killed so many monks along the way. Are those monks really guilty of heinous crimes? They also have relatives, friends, and teachers. Maybe they have helped the weak like you. What reason do you have to kill them?"

The evil spirit on Pei Yun's body became stronger and stronger. She looked at these illusions with lifeless eyes, and finally spat out a mouthful of blood, and fell into a coma...

After an unknown amount of time, she heard a faint voice calling her. As her will gradually became clearer, the voice became clearer and clearer.

"Pei Yun, do what you want to do and stand firm in what you have determined in your heart..." Luo Rufeng appeared in front of her.

"...It's good if we can kill one more monster. Don't think about those unnecessary things. Junior Sister Pei, let's kill them quickly!" Lu Yu also appeared in front of her.

Finally, the voice she heard when she first entered the space resounded in her mind: "Why cultivate immortality?"

Yes! Why did she want to cultivate immortality? Her first answer was because she was afraid of death and hoped to live forever.

Now she still fears death and wants to live forever, but this time she has a little more hope. She hopes to do her best to make this world a better place...

At this moment, the Dao Heart that was full of cracks was repaired and became stable. The Nascent Soul in the Dantian emitted a golden light. At the same time, the Primordial Spirit also burst out with dazzling light. The soul was promoted once again, and the worm inside the Primordial Spirit struggled painfully.

"You are right. The mortals I saved are not necessarily good people, but the mortal world has its own laws. The punishment that the bad people in the mortal world should receive should not be interfered by the demons or the monks. It should be decided by them themselves. As for the monks I killed, I cannot say that every monk I killed was a heinous person, but I can say that every monk I killed was because they wanted to kill me. Those who kill will be killed. They all killed me, so why can't I kill them back?!"

Pei Yun looked at Ye Li, who was transformed from his inner demon, and said, "I never said that everything I did was right. I am also a human being, so of course I make mistakes, but I have a clear conscience for everything I have done, and I am worthy of myself, that's all..."

After he finished speaking, he slashed with a sword, Ye Li disappeared, and all the illusions disappeared!

Pei Yun activated the Xi Sheng Jue and the spiritual consciousness technique - Xu Ge. The worm was covered by Xu Ge and moved out of his soul.

As soon as the Demon Heart Worm appeared in Pei Yun's hand, the black barrier on one side of the Space Spirit Core seemed to be peeled off the black lacquer surface bit by bit, and gradually emitted golden light. The golden light seemed to lock onto the Demon Heart Worm. Seeing this, Pei Yun hurriedly put the worm into a jade box.

Although she had hoped that the Space Spirit Core would absorb the energy of the Demon Heart Spawn, it was no longer necessary now that she had forced the Spawn out of her body. After all, the Demon Heart Spawn was irrefutable evidence that there were demons in the dark world, making it easier for the Dragon Clan to investigate and track them down in the future.

She breathed a sigh of relief. Although she had experienced a life-and-death experience, her soul realm was elevated again. This can be said to be a blessing in disguise!
