Although the emerging figure carried himself with a certain air, he knew very well that this Split Soul of his had been saved by this bunch of little ones.
There was no need to dwell on that. They had saved him, and that created karma.
Though it was only a wisp of Split Soul rather than his true body, a Split Soul being exploited by a Heavenly Demon would still partially affect the main body.
More importantly, the Split Soul had formed karma with a Heavenly Demon, which would become a hidden danger on his Dao Path in the future.
Generally speaking, Cultivators cultivated themselves rather than external things. No matter how great the problem, they dared to face it head-on.
But there was no need to become entangled in so much needless karma—this was not a tribulation that had to be endured.

"That may be difficult,"
