[Facing the hostile lineup of Celestial Secrets Sect members, Ye Yu felt a sense of surrealism.]

[For nearly a hundred years, since becoming the Sect Master of Mystic Yin Sect, Ye Yu had rarely encountered opposition.]

[He had always focused on cultivating in seclusion.]

[Yet, even so, he remained firmly seated as the top figure in the demonic path of the East Sea Continent.]

[He truly hadn’t expected that now, at the Celestial Secrets Sect, they would attempt to intimidate him with their numbers.]

[This made Ye Yu find it quite amusing.]

[In truth, his purpose in coming here was simply to see what kind of person the Celestial Secrets Sect Master was.]

[But now, Ye Yu was genuinely disappointed.]

[Facts have proved that being silent for too long is not a good thing! ]

[All cats and dogs in the world of cultivation dare to come and bark twice. ]

[After a moment, inside the main hall of the Celestial Secrets Sect, all the elders lay dead.]

[The Sect Master, Wu Suoshi, lay severely injured on the ground, unable to make any resistance.]

[This gruesome scene terrified most of the Celestial Secrets Sect disciples, who fled for their lives.]

[But there were a few brave ones.]

[However, these few met swift ends, unable to even enter the main hall.]

[Ye Yu approached Wu Suoshi.]

[The latter had lost his previous arrogance, replaced entirely by fear in his eyes.]

[Ye Yu asked Wu Suoshi, Since you claim to foresee all matters under heaven, why don’t you predict whether you’ll die here today?]

[Hearing this question, Wu Suoshi was on edge to the extreme.]

[After a long silence, he finally managed to say that he wouldn’t die here because…]

[Before he could finish his sentence, Ye Yu used the Spirit Devouring Technique to kill him on the spot.]

[After it was done, Ye Yu said to Wu Suoshi’s corpse, Your predictions were off.]

[In fact, no matter how Wu Suoshi answered, his fate was sealed from the moment he declared the irreconcilable separation of righteousness and evil.]

[Since he didn’t plan on a civilized discussion, then we won’t discuss at all!]

[As for the question in his mind, directly probing Wu Suoshi’s soul was the simplest and most effective way, ensuring no lies were heard.]

[In the main hall of the Celestial Secrets Sect, after deep analysis, Ye Yu suddenly burst into laughter.]

[It turned out, the person who truly predicted these events was not Wu Suoshi.]

[It was the founding Sect Master of the Celestial Secrets Sect, who ascended to the Heavenly Realm ten thousand years ago.]

[Before leaving, he left behind a sealed message, stating it should be opened after the fifth generation Sect Master took the seat.]

[Wu Suoshi happened to be the fifth Sect Master.]

[Upon assuming the position, he immediately opened the sealed message.]

[Inside were written two sentences.]

[”A millennium later, on the day of extreme yin, a celestial phenomenon will occur, a prodigy will descend, the Lord of the Demonic Path.”]

[”The demon has a nemesis, the nemesis is in the north, fortune and misfortune are intertwined, success and failure are a thought apart.”]

[Initially, Wu Suoshi couldn’t ascertain the truth of its contents.]

[But after contemplating for a long while, he realized there was profit to be made from this.]

[So he spread the first sentence, claiming it was something he had deduced at great cost.]

[In reality, Wu Suoshi already had a plan in mind.]

[The Celestial Secrets Sect had stood for ten thousand years, an impressive legacy.]

[The deduced situations had all come true up to now.]

[With this precedent, many in the cultivation world would undoubtedly believe Wu Suoshi’s deductions.]

[And there were many born on the day of extreme yin.]

[To ensure stability in the righteous sects, they would surely nip any potential threats in the bud.]

[This gave Wu Suoshi a lot of room to maneuver.]

[If the Lord of the Demonic Path truly appeared in the future, it would prove Wu Suoshi’s extraordinary abilities, making his deductions highly accurate, akin to that of a sage.]

[His reputation and the name of Celestial Secrets Sect would resound throughout the world.]

[But if the Lord of the Demonic Path didn’t appear in the future.]

[Would Wu Suoshi be blamed for it?]

[Of course not.]

[Wu Suoshi could simply state that due to his early predictions, the Lord of the Demonic Path had already been slain by righteous individuals.]

[This would have saved the entire cultivation world from a great catastrophe. He would still stand firmly on the moral high ground.]

[Wu Suoshi had thought through every angle clearly.]

[He was even prepared.]

[Once the Lord of the Demonic Path truly appeared, he would immediately reveal the second sentence, “The demon has a nemesis.”]

[At that time, his fame would inevitably skyrocket once again.]

[Yet, no matter how much he calculated, he never foresaw today’s disaster.]

[This showed, Wu Suoshi had indeed put in a lot of effort in understanding human nature,but his deduction abilities were poor.]

[The truly formidable one should be the founding Sect Master of Celestial Secrets Sect.]

[Ye Yu looked up at the sky.]

[Ascended to the Heavenly Realm, huh? Then I look forward to meeting you there someday!]

[Not long after leaving the Celestial Secrets Sect, Ye Yu stepped into the pinnacle of the Tribulation Crossing Realm.]

[After that, he only needed to await the arrival of the heavenly tribulation.]

[Once crossed, he would attain the Ascension Realm!]

[During this time, Ye Yu would often bring some delicacies to the Treasure Pavilion and feed them to Lan Lianyan.]

[She was always open to eating whatever he brought.]

[Ye Yu enjoyed watching her eat on the side, like watching a modern mukbang broadcast.]

[Initially not hungry himself, but watching her eat this and that, soon made him feel ravenous as well.]

[It was a strangely magical feeling.]

[These days, Lan Lianyan’s greatest joy was waiting for Ye Yu to arrive each day.]

[Every time she saw him, her eyes would narrow into crescent shapes, incredibly cute.]

[Watching her like this, Ye Yu felt incredibly soothed.]

[But he didn’t forget his main task, which was to subtly inquire about the identities of other spies within Mystic Yin Sect.]

[Unfortunately, according to Lan Lianyan, the identities of the spies were highly confidential.]

[For safety reasons, only their respective superiors knew their identities. No one else had any idea.]

[Hmm, you have to admit, they were really professional.]

[However, even if he hadn’t managed to uncover useful information, Ye Yu had no intention of harming Lan Lianyan.]

[Instead, he planned to keep her as a mascot.]

[Feeding her every day was a way to relieve boredom and stress.]

[Who knew, perhaps he might glean some information about Flower Spirit Mountain from her someday.]

[While Ye Yu pondered this, Lan Lianyan stuffed a piece of spirit beast meat into his mouth.]

[Ye Yu’s eyes widened.]

[Lan Lianyan said, Every time you come, you just watch me eat, which feels a bit awkward. From now on, you have to eat with me to make it more fun!]

[Faced with this request, Ye Yu didn’t refuse.]

[From then on, one person eating turned into two people eating.]

[They actually got along quite well.]

[Little did they know, the scene of the two of them sitting together in the Treasure Pavilion like a picnic had already spread among the elders of Mystic Yin Sect.]

[The elders also noticed, their Sect Master had a great sense of romance.]

[Hiding his identity, disguised as a disciple, and engaging in a seemingly innocent romance with a female disciple.]

[It looked very sweet.]

[At first, many elders couldn’t understand Ye Yu’s actions.]

[Why waste so much time?]

[Lan Lianyan was indeed very beautiful, no doubt.]

[But as long as Ye Yu revealed his identity, wouldn’t the entire Mystic Yin Sect, no, most of the female cultivators in the demonic path, be at his disposal?]

[Is pure love really that interesting?]
