The Intent of the Expert

Ming Tianbei clearly saw that at this moment, Can Ge was kneeling outside the Small Courtyard!

His body crumbled to pieces!

Then it disappears, evaporates!

Even the Devil Bottle bestowed by the Demon General has shattered, its demonic aura completely vanished, leaving only a few specks of dust drifting in the wind...

Ming Tianbei was dumbfounded.

His body was trembling slightly!

Can Ge's cultivation level is also at the peak of the Profound Devil!

Moreover, he possesses treasures bestowed by the Demon Commander. Not to mention the lower realm, even in the immortal realm, unless a true powerhouse intervenes, no one can do anything to him.

But now, the Can Ge were completely wiped out just as they approached the Small Courtyard!

Who exactly lives in this Small Courtyard?

He thought of the "senior" the Devil Lord had mentioned!

"It seems the Devil Lord has connections with some terrifying beings in the Immortal Realm. That must be it, which is why he's now receiving their protection... With such a senior by his side, the Devil Lord's Primordial Soul should be safe for now..."

He murmured, "Right now, I should hide myself and secretly protect the Devil Lord, while also informing Marshal Gongya!"

He immediately retreated quietly, not daring to approach the terrifying Small Courtyard again!

Now.

The Profound Heaven Realm, at the hidden border of the Profound Yellow Sea of Mist.

Two beams of light arrived at lightning speed.

Before long, two middle-aged men dressed in linen clothes appeared.

It was none other Yu Chenbing and Wang Chuan!

"How is it? Have you found out the identity of that being from the Southern Domain?"

"But that Devil Cultivator?"

The crowd gathered around and began to speak.

Yu Chenbing nodded and said, "As expected, the Southern Domain of Profound Heaven Realm is the Immortal Realm's Holy Cloud City, and the Ming Tianbei that descended to the Devil Realm three hundred years ago!"

"Moreover, this person's current cultivation level is at least at the peak of the Profound Immortal realm!"

Upon hearing this, everyone's expressions turned solemn.

"Peak of the Profound Immortal realm... We are no match for them at all, unless we send an expert of the same level from a branch sect. And, to be on the safe side, we can't just send one!"

"Yes, it's a pity. The Profound Heaven Realm Immortal came, it would cause chaos. Otherwise, we should have just sent a Celestial Immortal..."

"There's no time to lose; we should notify the branch headquarters immediately."

Everyone started to speak.

However, Yu Chenbing only revealed a cold smile on her face.

Why would a branch headquarters need to intervene?

He said coldly, "Now that we've ascertained this person's identity, as long as we let Holy Cloud City in the Northern Immortal Realm know that the Devil Cultivator who stole the Tianhun Sect Tianhun Pearl is hiding here, they will naturally take action!"

"Use a borrowed knife to kill."

"I will immediately send a telepathic message to Chen Yun and have him spread the news!"

Small Mountain Village.

It's dinnertime again.

A group of disciples were already seated, eagerly anticipating dinner.

Nan Feng and Ziling had been busy in the kitchen for a long time before bringing up a table full of fragrant dishes.

Everyone started eating immediately.

The little girl sat next to Li Fan, and she was shocked by what she saw.

"A sacred medicine... even within the Demon Palace, it's rare to taste it even once..."

She murmured to herself.

Li Fan placed a piece of food into her bowl with his chopsticks and said with a smile:

"You haven't had a decent meal in a long time. Eat something, you're still growing."

This child has been on the run for so long, he must have been going hungry for days on end.

Now that he had taken her in, Li Fan naturally wanted to make sure she had a good life.

"He saw through my identity, knew I had been asleep for a thousand years, and even prepared a sacred medicine to help me grow..."

The little girl murmured to herself, hesitated for a moment, looked at Li Fan, and said, "Big Brother... why are you so kind to me?"

As she spoke, her childish voice trembled slightly.

You're the one who told me to call you Big Brother... It's not that I'm disrespectful to you...

Her mind was filled with such thoughts.

Her words were, of course, a tactful inquiry into what this senior's true intentions were towards her...

Li Fan simply smiled and said, "Because you're still a child."

He paused for a moment, then said, "Just stay here for now, don't worry... I know you've been through a lot in the past, but some things should be forgotten. If possible, treat this place as a home and start over."

He was comforting the little girl.

After all, she's just a child, yet she's already experienced so much. Her family must have suffered a terrible ordeal, and she must have been hunted down... These childhood memories could easily influence her future development.

Li Fan hoped that she wouldn't have to worry or be afraid, that she could forget some of the painful memories from the past, and that she could live happily.

But the little girl was stunned.

Because I'm still just a child...?

It seems that his identity and past could not escape the discerning eyes of this senior; he knew everything!

Is making herself forget the past an attempt to forget everything about the Nine Saints Devil Lord?

Starting over?

Does this mean the other person wants to reshape their life?

The little girl pondered, and the more she thought about it, the more she felt that this senior seemed to want to change her life and make her give up everything related to the Devil Race?

She felt that she couldn't see through this senior at all.

What exactly was the master's intention?

She wasn't sure; in her Spirit Bud state, she was both innocent and mature... She didn't think of many things, but she understood that she had inevitably fallen into this mastermind's trap!

She could only nod silently and say, "I'll listen to... Big Brother."

In front of such a senior... this Devil Lord must first appear obedient and absolutely must not offend him!

She thought to herself.

Li Fan smiled, reached out and ruffled the little girl's hair, and asked, "What's your name?"

The little girl was about to say "Nine Saints" when she suddenly remembered that Li Fan had just told her to forget everything...

She then blinked her big eyes and said, "Big Brother... I've forgotten my old name. Can you give me a new one?"

Upon hearing this, Li Fan pondered for a moment and then said, "What about Xin Ning? If the heart is at peace, one will not be alarmed even if the sky falls."

"A tranquil mind remains undisturbed even when the sky falls..."

The little girl repeated it, and immediately said obediently, "Xin Ning thanks Big Brother!"

Li Fan smiled and said, "Let's eat."

Outside Small Mountain Village, inside a mountain peak.

Ming Tianbei took out a stick of incense!

It was a black incense stick, made of some unknown material, emitting a faint yet terrifying demonic aura.

"By lighting the Devil Soul Incense, Marshal Gongya will know that the Devil Lord has awakened... At the same time, she will be able to immediately locate my position and rush to my aid..."

He murmured, and a ghostly blue flame ignited in his hand.

The flame landed on the black incense stick.

The black incense sticks slowly began to burn.

A wisp of eerie blue smoke gradually filled the stone chamber where he was, eventually forming a wall of eerie blue mist!

Within the wall of mist, countless demonic figures seemed to shift and change, and countless vengeful ghosts were howling. A chilling wind howled, and even the area outside the entire mountain where he was located was filled with howling winds!

"Devil Guard Ming Tianbei requests an audience with the Demon Commander!"

"Devil Guard Ming Tianbei requests an audience with the Demon Commander!"

He spoke repeatedly, as if summoning!

Not long after.

Suddenly, a hazy figure emerged from the dark blue wall of smoke!

In a fleeting moment, one could vaguely make out that the figure was wearing a long dress with an extremely long hem, and that the figure was tall and slender, but the face was not visible.

"Devil Lord, have you awakened yet?"

A soft voice seemed to come from a very distant place, as ethereal as mist!

Ming Tianbei knew that this was Marshal Gongya, speaking to him across countless realms!

"Yes! Demon Commander, the Devil Lord has awakened, but Marshal Jing Mie's men have discovered us and are hunting us down today..."

He spoke.

"Is the Devil Lord safe now?"

The voice of the Marshal Gongya carried a hint of solemnity.

"It's safe. In the Profound Heaven Realm, there's a terrifying celestial giant who took in the Devil Lord and even killed the pursuers sent by Marshal Jing Mie..."

Ming Tianbei replied.

"A celestial realm giant?... Oh no... I'll be there immediately..."

Marshal Gongya's words grew fainter and fainter until they finally disappeared.

The dark blue mist slowly dissipated, and the Devil Soul Incense in front of Ming Tianbei had burned out!
