The time she spent on Enlightenment just now was very short, at most a quarter of an hour. In such a short time, it was impossible for the two to do anything.

In the end, my best friend held on to this boundary on the eve of this scoundrel’s departure. Not easy at all.

My New Year’s task is finally completed, more challenging indeed.

However, she carefully scrutinizes her best friend and suddenly has a doubt: why does her whole being look like a flower that has just bloomed, devoid of the previous sorrow and melancholy?

What’s going on?

This is not a good sign!

This is a very dangerous signal!

It seems we must act decisively...

"Marquis Su, New Year’s Eve has passed, daybreak is upon us, we should set off!"

"Alright!" Lin Xiaosu left the room.

At this moment, daylight was nearly breaking.

"Sister Yue, goodbye!" Han Yan said.

"Hmm!" Moon Demon nodded gently.

"Let’s go!" Han Yan waved her hand, and a Jade Hairpin fell to the ground, transforming into a Flying Shuttle.

Lin Xiaosu stepped aboard, exchanging a glance with the Moon Demon: "Darling, I’m leaving."

"Dear, don’t stray from her on the journey!" The Moon Demon transmitted a message.

The Flying Shuttle soared into the sky, carrying Han Yan and Lin Xiaosu away from the Demon Domain, heading back to the Desolate Capital.

At dawn, a red sun leaped from behind clouds, casting golden light across the realm, tearing through the night’s veil.

Han Yan turned her gaze lightly: "Do you know why she wants you and I to travel together?"

Lin Xiaosu withdrew his gaze from afar, landing it on her face, cautiously guessing: "Does she hope for us to have a harmonious relationship?"

Han Yan pursed her lips: "Hoping for a harmonious relationship? We two adversaries have spent New Year’s together without fighting fiercely; that’s harmonious enough as it gets. How can it be more harmonious? She merely knows you have become a taboo in the world now and is worried that the people from the Mental Path might ambush you en route, hence involving me to impart the might of the Heavenly Capital, adding another layer of deterrence to potential assassins."

This statement is accurate!

Lin Xiaosu, possibly having a background with Cangyuan.

That is also another deterrence.

Under normal circumstances, no ordinary person would dare to harbor any malicious intentions against him.

However, at this moment, his grievances with the Heart Dao and Mental Path are not ordinary.

Previously, facing the Heart Pavilion, he struck them, overthrowing two Heart Pavilions already, a significant enmity, yet, compared to the actions within the Demon Domain, it’s merely trivial.

In the Demon Domain, the Heart Path’s setup against the Demon King Palace pertains to three major top-tier forces, possibly even a top-level game involving four top-tier forces.

Which four?

The Demon Sect, Ancient Sect, Mental Path, and one even more terrifying "Heart Dao"—the "Heart Dao" within the "Six Paths and Nine Gates."

This top-secret revealed publicly by Lin Xiaosu had unprecedented impact.

The Mental Path’s setup within the Demon Sect was completely destroyed, the Demon King Palace was annihilated, the Demon Domain ecosystem entirely altered, and none of those "Dark Demons" sent as "seeds" into the Demon Sect likely remained.

Years of painstaking effort, all ruined at his hands. 𝒻𝓇𝑒𝘦𝘸𝑒𝒷𝓃ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝒸ℴ𝘮

You say does the Mental Path or Heart Dao not hate him?

Moreover, the Mental Path’s infiltration aimed at top-level forces, so publicly known, would prompt how many forces into self-preservation?

Under universal self-preservation, the Mental Path, Heart Dao would become worldwide taboos, thoroughly isolated.

Unable to provoke you, they can only avoid you.

This will make their future actions tenfold, hundredfold more challenging.

All this blame falls upon Su Lin, the Mental Path, Heart Dao’s utmost desire is to kill him right now.

Though having a Cangyuan background, is it truly frightening to them?

The Heart Dao’s ambitions are vast, methods aplenty, Cangyuan mighty though, its reach isn’t sufficiently extended in this world, merely reputation might not intimidate these two giants.

What’s to be done?

Introduce a super force: Heavenly Capital, more influence in this world, reality-based strength, more reliable.

Heavenly Capital is the leader of the Three Sects, its reputation, though not as famed as Cangyuan, it excels in deep-rooted local presence, with visible, tangible headquarters, possessing more direct control over realistic crises.

Let Lin Xiaosu and the Tiandu Two Saintesses accompany each other; even should the Heart Dao be rampant, they’d reconsider whether they can bear the joint retaliation of Cangyuan, this "One," and Heavenly Capital, the head of Three Sects.

This is the Moon Demon’s plan.

This young lady, though on her own Cultivation Path, dares not give her body to her beloved, but the affection has been expressed, treasures explored, heart also succumbed, directly addressing him as "dear husband," inwardly already deeming him the true husband.

The primary plan is to increase his return journey’s safety.

Does this planning hold substantial significance?

Sitting on the Flying Shuttle, Lin Xiaosu’s gaze sweeps over the fields, at this moment, the Tao Flower from the Space Law is wilted, seemingly a step away from fruition, his sight extends a hundred miles beyond.

Wherever his sight lands, there lies Mystical Mechanisms.

Yet, even he cannot confirm whether these mechanisms relate to the Heart Dao, Mental Path.

Anyway, no one courts proximity.

Thus, traversing tens of thousands of miles smoothly, entering Within the Great Wilderness.

Ahead lies Moon Lake.

"You’ve arrived home!" Lin Xiaosu said: "We should also part ways."

The Flying Shuttle descends breaking through the sky, landing on Moon Lake, transforming into a flatboat.

Han Yan slowly turns aside, gazing at Lin Xiaosu.

"What’s wrong? Reluctant to leave me?" Lin Xiaosu smiled.

Han Yan bit her lip: "At the moment of departure, there are two things I must tell you."

"Go ahead!"

"First matter, our wager, I lost, I admit! Whenever you arrive at Heavenly Capital, mention my name first, I will take you to meet the Master, but let me speak frankly, this is purely our desire whether the Master wishes to see you, I cannot guarantee." Han Yan said.
