Tell Baiyunxiu the truth

The System's voice echoed in Zhou Yuan's mind, and Zhou Yuan sighed.

He had actually asked the System long ago; asking now was just not giving up hope.

Zhou Yuan had made up his mind. When the Tiannv Sect Elders arrived later, after explaining the situation, he would immediately give it to Meng Wanqiu.

Just then, Meng Wanqiu's originally closed eyes slowly opened, revealing a hint of sorrow in her eyes.

Naturally, the one who understood her own physical condition best was Meng Wanqiu herself.

She felt as though she was just about to sink into the endless Demon Abyss, but a golden light suddenly appeared, breaking through the endless demonic energy for her!

Following this golden light, her spirit was able to break free and regain control of this Physical Body.

Seeing Bai Yunxiu also in the room, the sorrow in Meng Wanqiu's eyes deepened, and tears streamed down.

Qin Yunxiu quickly stepped forward and held Meng Wanqiu's hand. She understood the sadness, confusion, and helplessness in her Senior apprentice sister's heart.

Everything was clearly developing in a good direction, but now such a thing had happened. How could she not be sad!

Moreover, if Revered Master knew about this matter, he would definitely be extremely heartbroken as well.

Just then, two terrifying auras appeared, and two figures materialized like ghosts in the small courtyard.

One of these two was an old woman, and the other was a middle-aged woman. Both of them exuded a terrifying pressure.

This old woman was named Bear Gold Swallow, Tiannv Sect Fifth Elder!

The woman was named Qin Ting, Tiannv Sect Ninth Elder.

Both of them were at Dongtian Realm cultivation.

Seeing these two, Meng Wanqiu and Qin Yunxiu stood up simultaneously and bowed to them.

"Wanqiu, Yun Xiu greet Fifth Elder, greet Ninth Elder!"

Bear Gold Swallow and Qin Ting glanced at Zhou Yuan and nodded slightly at Zhou Yuan at the same time.

In the past few days, they had naturally been observing Zhou Yuan in secret. They couldn't say they were satisfied, but they couldn't say they were dissatisfied either.

But since Meng Wanqiu liked him, and Sect Leader had also said not to interfere, they hadn't shown themselves.

The two of them stepped beside Meng Wanqiu, and when they looked at Qin Yunxiu and Meng Wanqiu, their eyes couldn't help but show affection.

Qin Ting spoke with a solemn expression, "Wanqiu, what exactly happened?"

A bleak smile appeared on Meng Wanqiu's face. Her hands opened, and in her palms, the imprints of two demonic flowers emerged.

Bear Gold Swallow and Qin Ting were greatly startled. They hadn't expected the matter to be so severe.

Zhou Yuan quietly left the room. He knew very well that these two definitely needed to understand the full story, and he also had to give them time to be alone.

Zhou Yuan beckoned to Yun Xiu, and Qin Yunxiu understood, following Zhou Yuan out of the room.

"Zhou Yuan Gege, did you call me out alone because you have something to say?"

Seeing Zhou Yuan's hesitant expression, Qin Yunxiu immediately guessed something and couldn't help but ask.

Zhou Yuan nodded upon hearing this, then said, "Sister Yun Xiu, Wanqiu's situation is quite complex."

"She wasn't possessed by a demonic creature; her Primordial Spirit itself originates from the Demon Clan!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Yunxiu's eyes widened. She had previously thought that her Senior apprentice sister going to the Demon Abyss was what caused this situation.

If her Primordial Spirit itself was from the Demon Clan, then it would be troublesome.

Qin Yunxiu glanced at Zhou Yuan, and suddenly a thought struck her. She said, "Zhou Yuan Gege, you have a solution, right?"

She wasn't entirely sure, but based on her understanding of Zhou Yuan, perhaps he really could solve this kind of problem!

Zhou Yuan didn't evade, but nodded, then said, "There is indeed a way, but I haven't told Wanqiu about this yet!"

"I called you out to tell you first. After all, those two inside are Elders of the Tiannv Sect, and I still need you to explain the situation to them!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Yunxiu immediately nodded, then looked at Zhou Yuan, her eyes showing a look of admiration.

Zhou Yuan no longer hid anything and explained the matter of the Heavenly Silkworm Pill, detailing the disadvantages of this pill.

After hearing this, Qin Yunxiu frowned slightly, then spoke with concern, "Zhou Yuan Gege, do you mean that once Senior apprentice sister Wanqiu takes the Heavenly Silkworm Pill, she will no longer be herself, but a brand new spirit?"

Zhou Yuan nodded, then said bitterly, "This is the best method I can think of at the moment."

"The Primordial Spirit is born from death, reborn, destroying everything original, while also using the original spirit as nourishment."

"Her body, Realm, and cultivation can all be preserved, and may even improve."

"But she will also no longer be herself, but a new Meng Wanqiu, without any current memories!"

Upon hearing this, Qin Yunxiu fell silent. She felt this was too cruel.

Although alive, losing all past memories would definitely be an extremely painful thing.

Family affection, friendship, love—everything would disappear.

Qin Yunxiu felt that if she encountered such a situation, she would rather die. What was the meaning of living like that?

"Zhou Yuan Gege, I think we shouldn't tell Senior apprentice sister Meng about this, otherwise she might not be able to accept it!"

A hint of sadness appeared in Qin Yunxiu's eyes as she spoke.

Zhou Yuan nodded, then said, "I never planned to tell her, so I have never mentioned this matter to her."

"But you need to communicate this matter well with the two Elders. If possible, it's best to notify your Revered Master."

"Once this kind of pill is taken, Wanqiu will fall into a deep sleep and won't wake up for at least five years, or even ten years or longer."

"Moreover, during this period, her body must stay in a safe place and cannot be found by members of the Demon Clan, otherwise the consequences will be extremely severe."

Zhou Yuan's expression was solemn. He actually had a good place, which was the bronze ancient coffin he obtained in Qingyun Pavilion.

After such a long time of wearing down, the Restriction runes on it were gradually absorbed by Zhou Yuan, becoming his nourishment!

He had opened that bronze ancient coffin. Inside was a white jade thumb ring, and nothing else.

He saw the character 'Leng' on the white jade thumb ring, but found nothing else.

Zhou Yuan felt that this white jade thumb ring must be related to Leng Qingxue, and he had properly stored it along with that drop of soul blood!

This bronze ancient coffin was extraordinary. It had countless Restriction runes on it, seemingly forming a world of its own.

If Meng Wanqiu could enter this bronze ancient coffin after taking the Heavenly Silkworm Pill, the Demon Clan wouldn't be able to find her, even if they had heaven-reaching abilities.

But he couldn't make the decision on this matter, though he still decided to mention it to Yun Xiu.

Qin Yunxiu understood instantly after hearing Zhou Yuan's explanation.

"Zhou Yuan Gege, you want the Sect's permission to keep Sister Wanqiu by your side, so she'll be safer, right?"

Zhou Yuan nodded upon hearing this, then said, "Exactly. The situation in Jing Tian Domain is complex now, and there are members of the Demon Clan hidden everywhere."

"Your Tiannv Sect isn't safe either; there are definitely Demon Clan evildoers."

"I believe keeping her by my side is relatively safe. Members of the Demon Clan wouldn't think of it."
