“I didn’t expect that the Patriarch Lanxin Sect would be able to last so long under the attack of the Zhao Wei Alliance Army, and that they would even be able to launch an assassination operation against the White Lotus Sect, almost capsizing the ship in the sewer,” said Tai Yi.

“How many rebels are there in the Tai Yi Sect?” Liu Ke’er asked.

“Holy Maiden, there were originally six Void Realm experts from Tai Yi Sect. During this period of war, two of them were killed. Another escaped without a trace. The remaining three stayed on Mount Tai Yi and refused to surrender.”

“The one who disappeared, could it be the mysterious Void Realm that assassinated us today?” Liu Ke’er said.

“Very likely!”

“In my memory, that Void Realm cultivator seems to have rushed out from the back of the team. What’s going on?”

“Behind the group are the subordinates of the Prince of Wei and the Princess of Zhao. I believe that Void Realm cultivator sneaked in at some unknown time, waiting for an opportunity to assassinate Her Highness the Holy Daughter in order to deal a fatal blow to us!”

With the strength of a Void Realm expert, it would be relatively easy for them to sneak into the ranks. More importantly, these people had been waiting outside the village all along, and they had not gone through a detailed inspection before leaving, which was why they had caused such a great negligence.

“What’s the current situation on the Tai Yi Gate?”

“Very troublesome! The power of the Tai Yi Divine Sword is too powerful. Combined with their well-known Tai Yi Sword Formation, there is sword qi covering a radius of tens of kilometers. The Zhao Wei Alliance Army fought for seven days and seven nights to break through this sword formation, causing heavy casualties.”

“Since the sword formation is broken, why hasn’t the war ended yet?”

“After the sword formation was broken, the people of Tai Yi Sect still refused to give up and temporarily set up a small sword formation. It was only three miles in radius and could only cover a mountain top. “Although this area is much smaller, it has gathered its strength, making the sword formation several times more powerful. Even Void Realm experts would be seriously injured if they entered the formation, so the alliance army’s offensive was hindered.”

Liu Ke’er pondered for a moment before asking, “How far is this place from Tai Yi Gate?”

“It’s not far. It’s only about a hundred miles away.”

“Then let’s go over there and take a look.”

“No, it’s very dangerous over there. The so-called beasts are still fighting. If they fight to the death, there might be heavy casualties. It’s not appropriate for them to go forward.” Patriarch Lanxin immediately refused.

“Isn’t there the Zhao Wei Alliance Army here? Besides, our White Lotus Sect has been assassinated this time and suffered heavy losses. If we leave in disappointment, wouldn’t we lose all face?”

“It’s too dangerous. In short, it won’t do!” Patriarch Lanxin still refused, his tone firm.

Liu Ke’er was a little unhappy and said, “I am a Holy Daughter, and I have a higher status than you. I’m afraid I don’t have to ask you to agree to anything I want to do, right?”

“Since you insist, then I won’t force it.” Patriarch Lanxin shook his head helplessly. “Her Highness the Holy Maiden was seriously injured in this explosion. Please don’t overwork yourself and rest early.”

“Yes, I see. You can leave now.”

“Yes.” Patriarch Lanxin left the hall.

Liu Ke’er sat alone in the hall and looked into the distance. She was dumbfounded and muttered to herself, “Is that person really Li Qing? Could it be just a dream?”

Thinking back to yesterday’s scene, it was so real and illusory. She was really worried that Li Qing would disappear the moment she woke up. Everything was fake.

At that time, after she fainted, she was sent here by the two Sacred Envoys to rest. Until she woke up, she still hadn’t seen Li Qing’s face.

“Find an opportunity to call him in later.” Liu Ke’er thought to herself.

In what name should I call Li Qing over without arousing suspicion? Savior? This excuse seems to be good!

At that time, without Li Qing’s protection, she would have died with her strength. There was no mistake in saying that Li Qing was her savior, and the White Lotus Religions probably wouldn’t doubt it.

Just as her thoughts were in turmoil, a guard’s voice suddenly sounded from outside the door, “Report to Her Highness the Holy Daughter, Protector Garo!”

Hearing this, Liu Ke’er’s entire body trembled and she was excited, “Coming!”

“Let him in.” She tried her best to speak in a calm tone.

“Squeak!” The door of the hall opened, and the familiar mask appeared in front of her. Her eyes were still full of spirit and unyielding fighting spirit.

“Close the door. I want to have a good talk with Protector Garro. Don’t let anyone disturb us!” Liu Ke’er said with a dignified expression.

“Yes!” The two guards closed the door, and the hall instantly darkened into silence.

His two pairs of eyes met in the distance, filled with an inexplicable aura. Li Qing walked forward step by step and stepped on the steps of the hall until he arrived in front of Liu Ke’er.

Liu Ke’er looked closely at the man who was slowly approaching. Her breathing became more and more rapid, and her chest was heaving violently.

“Is it really you?”

“That’s right, it’s really me!” Li Qing slowly removed the mask and revealed her true colors to Liu Ke’er.

“It’s really you!” Liu Ke’er covered her face and cried.

At this moment, there was no need for more words. When they saw each other, they understood each other’s intentions.

Looking at the affection in the beauty’s eyes, Li Qing couldn’t help but walk forward and hug Liu Ke’er tightly. Then, he lowered his head and kissed her deeply.

After a long time, his lips parted.

Liu Ke’er blushed, her eyes blurred, and she shyly buried her head in Li Qing’s embrace.

The two of them stood quietly in the hall, hugging each other tightly, unwilling to part ways.

“You scoundrel, why did you lie to me before?” Liu Ke’er punched Li Qing’s chest with her fist.

Li Qing said, “I’m also afraid that you will be controlled by the Heavenly Demon Seed. I can only temporarily conceal your true identity so that nothing unexpected will happen.”

“Can’t you trust me just like that?” Liu Ke’er pouted in dissatisfaction.

Looking at her playful appearance, Li Qing couldn’t help but kiss her forehead and said, “How could I know that you can actually get rid of the control of the Heavenly Demon Seed? This is truly inconceivable. How did you do it?”

Liu Ke’er’s eyes blurred as she murmured softly, “I’m not too sure either. I was planted with the Heavenly Demon Seed and controlled by Holy Mother White Lotus. Later on, not only did I not suppress my longing for you by the Heavenly Demon Seed, but my longing for you increased day by day until I reached a certain limit, and then my head sobered up.”

“So the Heavenly Demon Seed has its limits. When a person’s emotions or obsessions are strong to a certain extent, they can break free from the shackles of the Heavenly Demon Seed.” Li Qing suddenly understood.

Actually, it was right to think about it carefully. The human soul was the deepest and most unfathomable existence in the world. How could it be completely controlled? The principle of the Heavenly Demon Seed should be to use certain emotions in one’s soul to reach the point of obedience, but it was not completely unchangeable.

Liu Ke’er said, “By the way, since you became the guardian of the White Lotus Sect, you should have been planted with the Heavenly Demon Seed. Why doesn’t it seem to have been affected?”

Li Qing smiled and said, “A drop of ink can pollute a cup of water, but can it pollute a vast ocean?”

“What do you mean……”

“My soul is as vast as the ocean!”

Liu Ke’er covered her mouth and smiled, “Holy Mother is really going to miscalculate this time. I didn’t expect that neither of us would be affected by the Heavenly Demon Seed.”

“Right, you can eat this.” Li Qing took out a bottle and poured out a sparkling and translucent medicinal pill. A refreshing fragrance was emitted.

“What is this?”

“This is a Spirit Cleansing Immortal Pill. It can purify all the filth in your soul and is the bane of the Heavenly Demon Seed. Although you have overcome the control of the Heavenly Demon Seed, your soul is still contaminated. Eating this Immortal Pill will help your soul recover its purity.”

“Immortal Pills!” Liu Ke’er couldn’t help but open her mouth wide, “You can even get an immortal pill?”

“Forget about it. Eat it first.” Li Qing didn’t care about that much. He picked up the Spirit Cleansing Immortal Pill and stuffed it into Liu Ke’er’s mouth.
