Ling Youren’s whole body shook. What did she just hear? He wasn’t Li Ying? Could the battle with f.u.xi and Nuwa caused him to go crazy?

Ling Youren quickly placed her tender hand on Li Yunmu’s forehead and asked, “Li Ying, what happened? Did you fall ill and started talking nonsense?”

Yuan Biyao was silent for a moment. After seeing Li Yunmu’s actions and hearing his words, she understood that the person in front of her was different from the Li Yunmu she knew. But since he had already spoken, she didn’t intend to hide the truth from Ling Youren anymore. Otherwise, it would be really unfair to the girl.

“What he said is true. He isn’t Li Ying, but the one who killed him.”

Yuan Biyao’s words caused Ling Youren’s beautiful eyes to go wide. She didn’t dare to believe that the man she had married had hidden such a cruel truth from her. Couldn’t he continue deceiving her? That way, she could have remained happy in her ignorance.

Li Yunmu turned his cold eyes on Yuan Biyao then. “You are the same. f.u.xi and Nuwa, who had taken care of you, were killed by me. The Primordial G.o.d World has also been destroyed. You should understand now that I am a b.a.s.t.a.r.d.”

Yuan Biyao was startled, but she didn’t say anything. His aura was similar to when he had fallen to the devil path, but there was clearly no devil energy in his body, so why did he still lose his reason and personality?

Yuan BIyao gently caressed Li Yunmu’s cheek. “Since we got married, wherever you go, I will follow! It doesn’t matter what appearance you change into, I will always stay by your side.”

Ling Youren was somewhat fl.u.s.tered, and she recoiled a few steps before saying in an incredulous tone, “You two…. You two are liars!”

Yuan Biyao took a deep breath and said, “Ling Youren, we didn’t want to lie to you, but you had only come into the world just recently and we didn’t want to hurt you.”

Just when Ling Youren thought to leave, Li Yunmu coldly said, “You want to run? How will you escape? You are a spirit of the ancient secret method, which is in my hands. Where will you run?”

Li Yunmu’s words stole any hope Ling Youren might have held onto. The man before her eyes wasn’t the Li Ying she knew, so who exactly was he? Why did he kill Li Ying? What was his aim?

“Alright, I can stay by your side, but I will tell you now that I will definitely avenge Li Ying! The moment I get the chance, I will kill you! Do you still want me to stay with you?”

Li Yunmu suddenly pinched Ling Youren’s cheek, and she struggled to get away from him while rigidly staring at him.

“I will tell you, I hate it most when others threaten me. If you threaten me again, I will completely annihilate you!”

Li Yunmu’s tone was completely earnest, but Ling Youren stared back at him without wavering, unwilling to yield. Her disposition was quite fierce.

Yuan Biyao quickly rushed to Li Yunmu while yelling, “Stay your hand for me! Li Yunmu, what exactly are you doing? What happened to you in the Primordial G.o.d World? Why did you become like this?”

Li Yunmu coldly smiled at her. “It is just as you see it. I don’t want to explain more!”

Ling Youren noticed that different types of energies constantly mixed in Li Yunmu’s body, creating a new type of energy. Since she was the devil spirit of the ancient secret method, it wasn’t strange that she was able to discover the energy circulating in other people’s body.

After Li Yunmu relaxed his hand, Ling Youren coughed a few times and gasped for breath. Then, she said to Yuan Biyao, “Elder sister, he… he has been contaminated by demonic energy!”

“Demonic energy?”

Yuan Biyao had heard about the devil energy and fiend energy, but she had never heard of demonic energy. This made her even more concerned for Li Yunmu.

“Demonic energy is formed from the convergence of the other dark energies in his body. I took a look a moment ago, and there were three types of energies colliding in his body. I can help him by removing the demonic energy, but tell me, was what he said true or not? Is Li Ying really dead?”

Yuan Biyao was silent for a moment, then she decided to tell the complete truth to Ling Youren.

“I am sorry, Ling Youren, for lying to you for so long. Li Ying is dead! And Li Yunmu isn’t Li Ying! This is the truth, but he was forced to kill Li Ying for me. You don’t know what sort of crimes Li Ying committed in the Devil World in the past years!

“I heard from Li Yunmu that you were trapped in the world tree, and the reason for that was because Li Ying wanted you as a source of endless energy for the Devil World. He would’ve never become your husband.

“Li Ying had extremely horrible temperament, and he wasn’t interested in anything besides power. He only wanted to use you as a source of energy. You should think carefully about it. Why would an ancient secret method be trapped in a world tree?

“If you were in the Primordial G.o.d World, f.u.xi and Nuwa would have definitely not done that to you. They believed in righteousness, and although they didn’t have any tolerance for devils, when compared between to Li Ying, they were better. If you had continued to stay with Li Ying, then someday, he almost certainly would have killed you.”

Yuan Biyao’s words stabbed Ling Youren, and she felt a chill run down her spine. The psychological blow of those words was really strong. She felt as if she had been splashed by a bucket of cold water. The Li Ying she had loved for so long was surprisingly a complete scoundrel in the eyes of her elder sister.

Yuan Biyao continued to speak:

“You have already married Li Yunmu, and he is a good person. He will take care of you for your whole life. Although he has been contaminated by demonic energy, he will definitely treat you properly once he returns to his normal self. He was willing to use the ancient secret method to rescue commoners, which is far better than using it to obtain power!”

Yuan Biyao’s words left Ling Youren silent. Her elder sister’s tone was completely earnest, and she had no reason to lie about it.

Not to mention that they were both ancient secret methods, so they shared similar destiny. The only difference between them was that her elder sister had fallen in love with a good man while she came to love a sc.u.m.

Yuan Biyao gently caressed Ling Youren’s beautiful hair and said, “That’s why you must help Li Yunmu! You must help him get rid of the demonic energy so that he can recover his reason. Consider it as doing a favour for your elder sister. The Primordial G.o.d World has already been destroyed, and I don’t have anywhere to go. Apart from following Li Yunmu, I can’t do anything else.”

Ling Youren took a deep breath after hearing Yuan Biyao’s words, and her gaze fell on Li Yunmu once more.
