Chapter 137: Chapter 80 [Demons Also Have Affections] (9400 words)_4

Is this world not beautiful? The sunlight here is warm, the wind gentle on the face. Looking up, one can see the sky, the sun and moon, the stars.

What’s so good about returning to the Domain Realm?

The fierce wind on the Prison Suppression Platform can crush a person’s flesh and blood to pieces, with a cold that can freeze a person solid.

And every day, brandishing weapons to kill...only when blood splashes on the face can one feel a bit of warmth..."

Mrs. He’s eyes grew more horrified, staring at Chen Yan as he exclaimed, "Prison Suppression Platform? How could you have ever been to such a place?!"

Chen Yan’s face remained unchanged: "I’ve never been, but it seems I should be going soon. Spending a few years on the Prison Suppression Platform, I might have a chance to advance to Celestial Being sooner."

Mrs. He shook her head, her tone complicated: "With elders like Lord Venerable, you should never have to go to that hellish place.

People with significant backgrounds like yours are usually sent to places like the Bright Mirror Platform or Dragon Head Platform for appearances’ sake.

If one truly wants to endure some training, going to places like Sword Box Pass and Iron Chain Pass would be ten times better than the Prison Suppression Platform."

Chen Yan listened carefully, memorizing the names "Bright Mirror Platform," "Dragon Head Platform," "Sword Box Pass," and "Iron Chain Pass."

Mrs. He spoke, her fox-like eyes filled with confusion: "With such strong backing, why suffer? You could live comfortably."

Sighing slightly, her tone grew complex: "Celestial Human Realm, ah, what’s so good about the Celestial Human Realm? Why does everyone yearn for it...

Wouldn’t it be better to stay in a good place and live comfortably?"

Chen Yan shook his head, adopting a deep look, speaking slowly:

"Who wouldn’t love good places...

In spring, Taohua Mountain’s wind and sun are warm. Erlong Bay’s sunset is beautiful. In summer, people at Luochuan Plain bathe in the Celestial River to escape the heat... Who wouldn’t want to stay in these places?

But throughout history, those who achieve great things, aren’t they all going through hurdles and hardships!!"

Mrs. He fell silent, lost in thought, then murmured: "You’re right. If it weren’t for special reasons, who would leave a good life to face risks."

Chen Yan seized the opportunity to ask: "And you? Mrs. He, you are a Demon Cultivator, clearly hidden within the He Family, deeply bonded with He Jianbo as mother and son, and had a good relationship with Sun Chen as relatives, yet why did you end up gravely ill and fake your death to leave the He Family?"

Mrs. He chuckled coldly: "If I hadn’t been forced, why would I leave." She turned her head to look at the northern mountains...

"Years ago, I escaped the Domain Realm to this world, initially filled with fear. But upon arriving in this world, I realized the legends were true: The world beyond the World Wall is surprisingly peaceful.

I hid in these mountains, living a peaceful life. Every day cultivating, sitting on the mountain top during leisure, watching the sun, feeling the wind..."

Chen Yan listened, thinking: Why do these people from the Domain Realm all love wind and sun?

Mrs. He continued, her tone nostalgic:

"...That year, it was winter, I think. He Village held a festival below the mountain, invited a troupe to perform, and people from nearby villages and towns gathered. The lively atmosphere reached the mountains miles away. Curiosity drove me to transform into human form and sneak into the village.

On that day, I met my husband...thereafter, transformed into human form, I stayed with the He Family for decades."

Is it the human and fox spirit version of "The New Legend of the White Snake"? Chen Yan heard this and shook his head: "Since so, why fake your death and leave?"

Mrs. He shook her head, turning to the northern slope, her gaze sinister, her tone grim: "Because...I’m not the only one in these mountains."

Chen Yan’s heart skipped a beat: "What do you mean?"

Mrs. He solemnly said: "When I first escaped to this world, I wasn’t alone. There was a companion. Together, we escaped capture and obtained a great opportunity to cross the World Wall to this world.

We first chose these mountains. The feng shui here is excellent, with natural advantages, and the ancestral graves of great families gather fortune. A perfect place to hide and cultivate.

But my companion and I had conflicts in the Domain Realm, only cooperating to escape together. Once in safety, he had other thoughts — that fellow was far more vicious than me.

To escape capture, we were both severely injured when we arrived. He suggested going down to massacre nearby people, using blood food to recover.

I dislike killing, so I refused, intending to leave alone. But he first targeted me — our realms were similar; he eyed my Tao practice, wanting to kill me, to take my blood and primordial spirit to heal his injuries.

We had a fierce fight; though he was fierce, his cultivation a bit higher, his wounds were heavier. In the end, I countered him.

I severed one of my fox tails, used my Innate Divine Techniques to trap him in the mountain belly, forcing him into slumber. Once the Fox Tail Divine Techniques activate, he is isolated within it.

If I recover the Fox Tail Divine Techniques, he will wake from slumber immediately. My cultivation is less than his, so I dare not reclaim the tail, removing the trap. He remains in the trap, asleep."
