"All elders! Follow me to slay this woman!"
"She must not be allowed to leave the Demon Sect!!"
With a furious roar, Mo Yuan swiftly formed hand seals.
This woman knew the Tai Xuan Demon Sect's techniques and bore the legacy of the Devouring Spirit Demon Art. If she were allowed to roam freely in the world...
The Tai Xuan Demon Sect... would inevitably be thrust into the eye of the storm!
It seems... I must go all out.
With this thought, Mo Yuan took a deep breath. As his hand seals shifted, a shadowy demonic pagoda slowly materialized behind him.
Wreathed in swirling demonic energy, the pagoda exuded an oppressive, terrifying aura.
This was his lifebound artifact—the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda Seal!
"The Sect Master has summoned his lifebound artifact!"
"Everyone! Hold nothing back!!"
A white-haired elder was the first to respond, raising his emerald-green staff high before slamming it into the ground.
Hum!
The gem atop the staff blazed with verdant light, instantly transforming into a lush forest of towering trees.
The other elders followed suit, unleashing a dazzling array of attacks—golden radiance, icy blades, scorching flames—all converging toward Su Muwan in an overwhelming surge of spiritual energy.
Watching this spectacle, Su Muwan merely smirked.
"Pathetic."
Her violet eyes flared with power as an invisible wave of psychic energy rippled outward, clashing with the incoming attacks.
In an instant, the elders' vision twisted—some found themselves trapped in a sea of infernal flames, others plunged into an abyss of endless frost. Their minds wavered, and their coordinated assault fell into disarray.
Mo Yuan's expression darkened. "The Phantom Demon Dream Art?!"
So, this monster truly knew their sect's supreme techniques.
No... for all he knew, she might have mastered all of them!
In that brief moment, Su Muwan blurred into motion, closing the distance to a yellow-robed elder in a ghostly flash. She raised her hand, poised to strike—
"Don't even think about it!"
Mo Yuan's eyes sharpened. Channeling his spiritual energy into the Demon-Suppressing Pagoda Seal, he bellowed, "BREAK!!!"
BOOM!
A devastating shockwave erupted as the pagoda descended with earth-shattering force, compressing the air around it until it crackled with explosive pressure.
Su Muwan had no choice but to abandon her attack and brace for the impact.
Mo Yuan poured every ounce of his energy into the strike, determined to shatter her illusions and crush her in one fell swoop.
Where the pagoda landed, the ground collapsed under the pressure, sending dust and debris hurtling skyward. The entire sect plaza trembled violently, as if the heavens themselves were about to split apart.
Yet Su Muwan showed no fear. As the pagoda loomed overhead, she abruptly clasped her hands together.
In a flash, the shadows around her surged violently, coalescing into a massive, ink-black qilin.
Damn it!
Mo Yuan's pupils constricted—his own technique was being mirrored back at him?!
But did she really think this would be enough?
CRASH!
The Demon-Suppressing Pagoda Seal slammed into the shadowy qilin.
The collision unleashed a ring-shaped shockwave that sent nearby disciples flying, blood spraying from their mouths as they crashed to the ground.
Mo Yuan stared intently at the clash, desperate for this strike to succeed.
Yet, against all odds, the black qilin held firm, resisting the pagoda's crushing weight.
From behind the qilin, Su Muwan locked eyes with Mo Yuan, her gaze dripping with mockery.
"Do you know what water at 100 degrees Celsius is?"
100-degree water?
Mo Yuan instinctively pondered the question—but before he could answer, Su Muwan sneered:
"(Boiling) Trash."
"?!"
Mo Yuan's face twisted with rage. "YOU DARE?!"
Seizing the moment, Su Muwan flicked her wrists. The qilin's form dissolved, morphing into a whirling black vortex.
The vortex spun faster and faster, reversing the flow of energy—now draining the pagoda's spiritual power instead!
No!
Mo Yuan's pupils shrank. A tremendous force surged back through his spiritual connection, striking his chest like a hammer. He staggered, barely suppressing the urge to vomit blood.
As he faltered, Su Muwan darted out from behind the vortex.
Her hands flew through another series of seals, her eyes glowing with a mesmerizing pink-violet hue.
"Enthralling Demon Heart Art!!"
Hum—!
Invisible threads of allure, fine as spider silk, drifted toward Mo Yuan and the elders, slipping unnoticed into their minds.
Mo Yuan's vision blurred. Unbidden memories of a gentler past surfaced—a time when he, too, had yearned for peace.
The other elders fared worse, their eyes glazing over with intoxication, utterly forgetting the life-or-death battle around them.
Su Muwan hovered in midair, surveying her handiwork with satisfaction.
Perfect. Flawless. Delightful~
In my past life, even with my talents, I couldn’t have soloed the Tai Xuan Demon Sect this quickly.
But now? With Qin Luo’s help, I’m unstoppable!
Who would’ve thought dual cultivation with him would pay off so well?
Alright, time to end this.
Good thing there are no T0 protagonists here—otherwise, my flawless victory might’ve been ruined by some ridiculous plot armor.
Just as the thought crossed her mind—
Hum—!
A gentle white light suddenly radiated from the side.
Su Muwan: "?"
She turned, bewildered.
There, rising unsteadily from the crowd of injured disciples, was a young man—his eyes vacant, yet his body bathed in a pure, holy glow.
He stretched out a hand, and the light expanded, cleansing the surrounding shadows like dawn breaking through darkness.
As the radiance spread, Mo Yuan and the elders snapped out of their trance, gasping in shock.
"Xiao Fei?"
One elder recognized him, stunned. "That’s the dead-last outer disciple! How did he break our illusions?"
No sooner had he spoken than—
Thud!
Xiao Fei's glow flickered out, and he collapsed to the ground.
Mo Yuan shook his head, refocusing on Su Muwan. "We’ll deal with that later."
"Right now, concentrate on this monster!"
"Do not let her trap you in another illusion!"
"Understood!"
Su Muwan rolled her eyes.
Seriously? This damn protagonist aura...
Well, whatever. Qin Luo hasn’t arrived yet—might as well play a little longer.
With a sinister chuckle, she sneered, "Heh heh heh heh heh~~"
"Fine, fine! I’ve got a few more tricks to test on you lot!"
......
......
Hidden in the shadows, Qin Luo observed everything, his gaze lingering on Xiao Fei.
A faint smile curled his lips.
[System Notification:

As expected.
The T0 protagonist was here all along.
Turning to the curious Mo Li beside him, he pointed at Xiao Fei and commanded:
"Before he regains his memories—get close to him. Earn his trust. Protect him."
"Then... after he regains his memories."
"Betray him."
Mo Li glanced at Xiao Fei and nodded. "Got it, Luo. By the way, people online are saying Miss Su forced you to be her boyfriend. Is that true?"
"Slander. Pure lies. We're in love."
"That checks out. They said you’d deny it under pressure from Miss Su."

ng to die together with you." Lin Xuan is dead, his body thrown into the river by his scumbag lover and her accomplice. She, the president of the Su Group, is decisive, ruthless, and ice-cold. For three days and three nights, she had his body fished out of the river, and without hesitation, she kissed the bloated corpse of Lin Xuan. She laid down beside him in a cold coffin, their fingers intertwined, a smile lingering on her lips as she closed her eyes. The noble and cold-hearted woman, only bending for one man—Lin Xuan. Lin Xuan, with his golden finger, is reborn and returns to the day of his wedding to the treacherous woman. Su Qiang comes to steal the bride.

Shouldn't she be fawning over the male lead at this point?] [Zhou Qiaoqiao, are you sick? Weren't you supposed to break off your engagement today?] [Damn it!

The first randomly selected passerby was caught in less than an hour. But when Xu Moru was selected, things started to take an unexpected turn. "Damn, this isn't how the script goes. This Xu Moru is too bold, he's not following the rules at all." "Crap, is this guy taking it seriously?" "The female celebrity has been scared to tears!"
