[Facing the hostile lineup of Celestial Secrets Sect members, Ye Yu felt a sense of surrealism.]
[For nearly a hundred years, since becoming the Sect Master of Mystic Yin Sect, Ye Yu had rarely encountered opposition.]
[He had always focused on cultivating in seclusion.]
[Yet, even so, he remained firmly seated as the top figure in the demonic path of the East Sea Continent.]
[He truly hadn't expected that now, at the Celestial Secrets Sect, they would attempt to intimidate him with their numbers.]
[This made Ye Yu find it quite amusing.]
[In truth, his purpose in coming here was simply to see what kind of person the Celestial Secrets Sect Master was.]
[But now, Ye Yu was genuinely disappointed.]
[Facts have proved that being silent for too long is not a good thing! ]
[All cats and dogs in the world of cultivation dare to come and bark twice. ]
[After a moment, inside the main hall of the Celestial Secrets Sect, all the elders lay dead.]
[The Sect Master, Wu Suoshi, lay severely injured on the ground, unable to make any resistance.]
[This gruesome scene terrified most of the Celestial Secrets Sect disciples, who fled for their lives.]
[But there were a few brave ones.]
[However, these few met swift ends, unable to even enter the main hall.]
[Ye Yu approached Wu Suoshi.]
[The latter had lost his previous arrogance, replaced entirely by fear in his eyes.]
[Ye Yu asked Wu Suoshi, Since you claim to foresee all matters under heaven, why don't you predict whether you'll die here today?]
[Hearing this question, Wu Suoshi was on edge to the extreme.]
[After a long silence, he finally managed to say that he wouldn't die here because...]
[Before he could finish his sentence, Ye Yu used the Spirit Devouring Technique to kill him on the spot.]
[After it was done, Ye Yu said to Wu Suoshi's corpse, Your predictions were off.]
[In fact, no matter how Wu Suoshi answered, his fate was sealed from the moment he declared the irreconcilable separation of righteousness and evil.]
[Since he didn't plan on a civilized discussion, then we won't discuss at all!]
[As for the question in his mind, directly probing Wu Suoshi's soul was the simplest and most effective way, ensuring no lies were heard.]
[In the main hall of the Celestial Secrets Sect, after deep analysis, Ye Yu suddenly burst into laughter.]
[It turned out, the person who truly predicted these events was not Wu Suoshi.]
[It was the founding Sect Master of the Celestial Secrets Sect, who ascended to the Heavenly Realm ten thousand years ago.]
[Before leaving, he left behind a sealed message, stating it should be opened after the fifth generation Sect Master took the seat.]
[Wu Suoshi happened to be the fifth Sect Master.]
[Upon assuming the position, he immediately opened the sealed message.]
[Inside were written two sentences.]
["A millennium later, on the day of extreme yin, a celestial phenomenon will occur, a prodigy will descend, the Lord of the Demonic Path."]
["The demon has a nemesis, the nemesis is in the north, fortune and misfortune are intertwined, success and failure are a thought apart."]
[Initially, Wu Suoshi couldn't ascertain the truth of its contents.]
[But after contemplating for a long while, he realized there was profit to be made from this.]
[So he spread the first sentence, claiming it was something he had deduced at great cost.]
[In reality, Wu Suoshi already had a plan in mind.]
[The Celestial Secrets Sect had stood for ten thousand years, an impressive legacy.]
[The deduced situations had all come true up to now.]
[With this precedent, many in the cultivation world would undoubtedly believe Wu Suoshi's deductions.]
[And there were many born on the day of extreme yin.]
[To ensure stability in the righteous sects, they would surely nip any potential threats in the bud.]
[This gave Wu Suoshi a lot of room to maneuver.]
[If the Lord of the Demonic Path truly appeared in the future, it would prove Wu Suoshi's extraordinary abilities, making his deductions highly accurate, akin to that of a sage.]
[His reputation and the name of Celestial Secrets Sect would resound throughout the world.]
[But if the Lord of the Demonic Path didn't appear in the future.]
[Would Wu Suoshi be blamed for it?]
[Of course not.]
[Wu Suoshi could simply state that due to his early predictions, the Lord of the Demonic Path had already been slain by righteous individuals.]
[This would have saved the entire cultivation world from a great catastrophe. He would still stand firmly on the moral high ground.]
[Wu Suoshi had thought through every angle clearly.]
[He was even prepared.]
[Once the Lord of the Demonic Path truly appeared, he would immediately reveal the second sentence, "The demon has a nemesis."]
[At that time, his fame would inevitably skyrocket once again.]
[Yet, no matter how much he calculated, he never foresaw today's disaster.]
[This showed, Wu Suoshi had indeed put in a lot of effort in understanding human nature,but his deduction abilities were poor.]
[The truly formidable one should be the founding Sect Master of Celestial Secrets Sect.]
[Ye Yu looked up at the sky.]
[Ascended to the Heavenly Realm, huh? Then I look forward to meeting you there someday!]
[Not long after leaving the Celestial Secrets Sect, Ye Yu stepped into the pinnacle of the Tribulation Crossing Realm.]
[After that, he only needed to await the arrival of the heavenly tribulation.]
[Once crossed, he would attain the Ascension Realm!]
[During this time, Ye Yu would often bring some delicacies to the Treasure Pavilion and feed them to Lan Lianyan.]
[She was always open to eating whatever he brought.]
[Ye Yu enjoyed watching her eat on the side, like watching a modern mukbang broadcast.]
[Initially not hungry himself, but watching her eat this and that, soon made him feel ravenous as well.]
[It was a strangely magical feeling.]
[These days, Lan Lianyan's greatest joy was waiting for Ye Yu to arrive each day.]
[Every time she saw him, her eyes would narrow into crescent shapes, incredibly cute.]
[Watching her like this, Ye Yu felt incredibly soothed.]
[But he didn't forget his main task, which was to subtly inquire about the identities of other spies within Mystic Yin Sect.]
[Unfortunately, according to Lan Lianyan, the identities of the spies were highly confidential.]
[For safety reasons, only their respective superiors knew their identities. No one else had any idea.]
[Hmm, you have to admit, they were really professional.]
[However, even if he hadn't managed to uncover useful information, Ye Yu had no intention of harming Lan Lianyan.]
[Instead, he planned to keep her as a mascot.]
[Feeding her every day was a way to relieve boredom and stress.]
[Who knew, perhaps he might glean some information about Flower Spirit Mountain from her someday.]
[While Ye Yu pondered this, Lan Lianyan stuffed a piece of spirit beast meat into his mouth.]
[Ye Yu's eyes widened.]
[Lan Lianyan said, Every time you come, you just watch me eat, which feels a bit awkward. From now on, you have to eat with me to make it more fun!]
[Faced with this request, Ye Yu didn't refuse.]
[From then on, one person eating turned into two people eating.]
[They actually got along quite well.]
[Little did they know, the scene of the two of them sitting together in the Treasure Pavilion like a picnic had already spread among the elders of Mystic Yin Sect.]
[The elders also noticed, their Sect Master had a great sense of romance.]
[Hiding his identity, disguised as a disciple, and engaging in a seemingly innocent romance with a female disciple.]
[It looked very sweet.]
[At first, many elders couldn't understand Ye Yu's actions.]
[Why waste so much time?]
[Lan Lianyan was indeed very beautiful, no doubt.]
[But as long as Ye Yu revealed his identity, wouldn't the entire Mystic Yin Sect, no, most of the female cultivators in the demonic path, be at his disposal?]
[Is pure love really that interesting?]
