Chu Yi had another thought.
This old man was truly extraordinary. The Immortal Fire he spoke of, Chu Yi had yet to feel it.
If it indeed existed, surely his Cultivation Technique was not as good as the old man's. What if he harbored evil intentions, coveting the old man's Immortal Fire, or even... taking a bit of the Immortal Fire and his life, wouldn't that be a loss too great?
The old man seemed to read Chu Yi's thoughts, and chuckled, explaining calmly:
"You seem to have misunderstood me."
"There is something inside my body, this thing, I cannot make you understand right away. Let's put it this way, there is a demonic entity inside me."
"Demonic... entity?"
Chu Yi murmured, his face displaying even greater shock.
"Yes, a demonic entity, it is the root of truth I recklessly buried in the past. The reason I have become this inhuman, ghostly figure is because of it."
