First, if the Fox Fairy Nannan is being tracked by the Great Cultivator from the Daoist Temple and they make it here, I can always find an excuse to brush it off. What does the Golden Light from the talisman have to do with the young Daoist Zhang Chen? At worst, I can just claim I found the talisman by chance. Secondly, if the other party is a strange passerby who was attacked by my Light of the True God, then... there’s nothing to worry about. Zhang Chen quickly opened his Dharma Eye, looking into the darkness, but saw no abnormalities. "What’s going on?" Fox Fairy Nannan looked at Zhang Chen. Along with the automatic activation of the Light of the True God, she too sensed something amiss. Hearing this, Zhang Chen explained his two guesses to the Fox Spirit, and upon hearing them, the Fox Spirit frowned, considering the possibility of each situation.

The Fox Fairy Nannan, after a brief consideration, shook her head: "Although my abilities are sealed, I am inherently a seventh-grade existence of Possession, just a step away from entering Yin Spirit. If someone were tracking me, I couldn’t possibly be unaware." "What if it’s someone comparable to a Yang God?" Zhang Chen inquired further. "If someone of the Yang God’s caliber had detected my presence, they would have already been tempted by the legendary Mysterious Power and should have arrived by now." Fox Fairy Nannan did not say whether a Yang God True Man could track her, but rather presented a different perspective. Zhang Chen stood by the window, his eyes quietly watching the night. The darkness under the tree seemed like a beast’s mouth, ready to swallow everything whole at any moment. "Don’t worry; it must be a passing oddity that you accidentally injured. With the power of the Yellow Heaven Dao growing, many are secretly investigating it, and it’s not unusual for someone to sneak in at night." Fox Fairy Nannan offered a word of comfort. Zhang Chen was here, suspicious and jumpy, unaware that in Xie Lingyun’s attic, a shrill scream suddenly echoed. Xie Lingyun had used her family’s unique Mysterious Power to conceal her soul’s presence, but she didn’t know that Zhang Chen’s Light of the True God was beyond the ordinary. Just as she followed the Fox Spirit to Zhang Chen’s courtyard gate, a ray of Golden Light shot out like a sharp sword. The grand and vast light spun with boundless pressure, startling her Celestial Demon and instilling fear in her heart. Then the Mysterious Power unexpectedly took her soul to flee, but its Escape Light was clearly not as fast as the Light of the True God. As the Light of the True God collided with the mysterious darkness, a scream ensued, and the Celestial Demon was split apart, hastily retreating back into her body, where it lay dormant, not daring to appear again. "What?" Xie Lingyun stood inside her small abode, a hint of joy flashing in her eyes. Not only was there no anger on her face, but it was filled with endless delight. Her Celestial Demon, formless and immortal, even her own father couldn’t deal with it. The thing was entrenched in her Essence, Qi, and Spirit, seemingly without any nemesis. She had exhausted all means and methods but had found no way to deal with the Celestial Demon, not even the Yellow Heaven Dao could handle it, leading her to despair. Yet, who knew that amid despair, she’d stumble upon a force that instilled fear in the Celestial Demon. "I’m saved! I’m saved!" Xie Lingyun’s tears slowly slid from the corners of her eyes. Who would have thought of her life of misery? Tied up with the Celestial Demon since the age of one, facing the threat of soul annihilation. It was only today that she finally found a power that could save her from the sea of suffering. Since she was possessed by the Celestial Demon at age three, who knows how she managed to survive these decades? She was just a child! Yet she had to face the daily threats and oppression of the Celestial Demon, living day and night in its shadow. Who could understand the helplessness and grief in her heart? "Saved? You worm, you’re thinking too much! Do you really think that force can deal with me?" At this moment, a black aura appeared behind Xie Lingyun, transforming into a shadow that spoke in an indistinct, ageless, genderless voice. The shadow’s voice was filled with anger: "Though that force can suppress me, it’s truly too weak. This old ancestor was just caught off guard. While it can restrain me, it needs a long time to grow strong enough to destroy me. And I won’t give it that time. Once I possess you, I’ll devour that force, perhaps reaping unexpected rewards." "Possess me? Do you think that now I’ve found a way to restrain you, I’ll give you the chance to possess me?" Xie Lingyun’s voice was cold and filled with a kind of dominance: "I’m dead? Haha! We’ll see whose methods are superior then." The Celestial Demon laughed coldly. The room returned to calm, and the shadow vanished, leaving Xie Lingyun quietly standing by the window, her eyes gazing toward Zhang Chen’s building: "Visiting so late might be improper. Moreover, this person is hiding his identity at Huangli Temple, showing no signs or leaks. Going directly might also be unwise."
