Immortal Cultivation and Life-Saving Guide

Chapter 438 Exclusive Reveal
Yuhan rarely had a moment of peace, completely unaware of Wei Xi's scheme.

Wei Xi was torn apart by the Yin and Yang energies, but his mind was incredibly clear: Yin and Yang energies give birth to all things. Although this place is fake, the person behind it who could restore it to this state must have extremely high cultivation.

Even such experts couldn't completely eliminate the Dongyi's demonic beasts, demonstrating just how formidable they were thousands of years ago. Even if only a portion of the demonic beasts' power remains here, how could Wei Xi not be cautious?

As for how Zuo Fei, who was not very strong, became a top expert, Wei Xi said that there would always be a reasonable explanation for this.

"Second brother, do you remember when I was little, my eldest sister took us to play in the warehouse?"

Wei Xi thought to himself: You old codger, it's questionable whether your ancestors for eighty generations back were even born when you were a child, how could I possibly remember the story of the brotherhood between monsters?
Fortunately, Yu Han answered his own question: "At that time, my elder sister had not yet been sent to the northern frontier; she was only in Dongyi leading a few of us."

“The Demon Chief returns every now and then and throws corpses into the Hundred Demon Tomb, but he ignores us all.”

"Sometimes I worry that if we die in the Hundred Demon Tomb, what difference will there be between us and those demon beasts slaughtered by the Demon Leader?"

Yu Han's acting skills were superb. Wei Xizhen didn't know how to react to these words, so she just kept a cold face and remained silent.

Moreover, Wei Xi couldn't figure out what Yu Han was thinking—she was certain she had been exposed just now, and if it was just a test, there was no need for it at all.

Yu Han was in high spirits, speaking in a gentle tone, as if his mental state had returned to normal.

"I was filled with fear and anxiety... That time, Guangyu broke into the Hundred Demon Tomb. That beast wasn't very powerful, but it was good at chasing. Eldest sister could only use herself as bait to lure it away. Second brother, you took me and we escaped."

"The deeper we went into the Hundred Demon Tomb, the more Yin and Yang energy there was. I couldn't stand it at all. In the end, Second Brother, I don't know what you were thinking, but you actually grabbed two afterimages and merged them with me... That feeling was disgusting!"

Yu Han's tone suddenly turned sinister. Recalling his previous crazy ramblings about purity, Wei Xi understood and said in a rough voice, "I have no choice. It's better than you dying here!"

"Hahaha, I'm not blaming my second brother," Yu Han resumed his gentle and polite demeanor, which made Wei Xi's heart tremble with fear. "At least this has brought out his abilities, otherwise if the demon leader had made a move, it would have been another great calamity."

Wei Xi keenly sensed that something had gone wrong—what did it mean to have one's abilities brought out? Was Yu Han's ability not innate?

Wei Xi originally thought that Lue Xi and Yu Han were both spirits, just a little different; but Zuo Fei said that Lue Xi and the others were alive; now, after hearing Yu Han's big revelation, it seems that there are still secrets about their origins.

Even more puzzling is the question of why Yuhan told her all this.
Not only did Wei Xi sense the danger, but even the laborers who followed him down knew they had overheard something they shouldn't have. Their faces turned deathly pale, and with the green lamplight, they looked no different from vengeful ghosts.

"When my eldest sister came back and found us that day, she thought the Hundred Demon Tomb couldn't hold on any longer. The two of us merged with about ten afterimages, and kept exchanging with the afterimages around us..."

“You’ve lost control,” Wei Xi said irritably, his brows furrowed. “It’s all in the past, why bring it up?”

Yu Han chuckled softly, his pupils narrowing, and said in a low voice, "In their human language, this is called being moved by the scene."

"The Hundred Demon Tomb, our Demon Chief's brilliant scheme... all these years it's actually come to fruition, creating such a filthy place." "And it's driven our eldest sister to this state! Yet he himself abandons everything, spending his days poking around that broken furnace!"

Wei Xi's jaw almost dropped to the ground—it sounded like Yu Han actually harbored resentment towards the Eastern Yi demon leader.
Wei Xi immediately convinced himself that this would make sense! It wasn't that Zuo Fei was exceptionally talented and ascended to immortality on the spot, but rather that there was a traitor in the demon beast team!
This traitor is none other than Yuhan, the four great demons under the Eastern Yi Demon Chief, the creator of the Western Regions oasis, and an ancient demon beast that controls antonyms!
“I felt something was wrong the day my eldest sister took Huangyu. Over the years, I’ve also sensed something was amiss. My eldest sister has risked her life for it for so many years, yet it wants to kill her without a proper burial!”

Wei Xi suddenly turned to the side, his beastly eyes fixed on Yu Han, and warned, "I think you've been bewitched by that guy surnamed Zuo! You're so foolish!"

While outwardly playing the role of a grumpy, impatient older brother, Wei Xi secretly hoped that the kid would talk more, preferably revealing all the secrets of the Eastern Yi Demon Leader.

“I didn’t say anything wrong,” Yu Han said with a smile. “Brother, you should also have your own plans. After all, your elder sister is gone, and you’ll be next, my dear brother!”

At this moment, Wei Xi was in a dilemma: on the one hand, she felt that the conversation had exceeded the scope of what Tan Xian, this big idiot, could handle; on the other hand, she was itching to listen to more.

Wei Xi thought to himself, "Let's try to bluff him a bit. If we can find out Lue Xi's attitude, it will be a help."

Wei Xi then feigned displeasure and said, "How dare you say that in front of your elder sister? I think you're asking for a beating!"

“It was fine before,” Yu Han casually grabbed a few unlucky guys following behind him, and they instantly bled from all seven orifices, their bodies slumped on the ground. “But this Green Moon Tide really hurt my elder sister’s heart.”

Wei Xi paused, and Yu Han took in the slight regret hidden in his eyes.

“You acted quite well,” Yu Han said, arms crossed, his cruel and vicious nature exposed. “It’s a pity that my second brother was never a compassionate person.”

“Your acting is terrible,” Wei Xi scoffed. “It’s obvious at a glance.”

Yu Han composed himself, but his tone became strange. "Oh, well, it must have been hard for you to fool me all this way. You must be tired!"

"You've gone to so much trouble, you couldn't have just been messing with me for no reason, could you?"

These words amused Yuhan. Not to mention that its human form was quite deceptive, making it impossible to tell that it was a bloodthirsty monster.

“You are much smarter than that Zuo Fei,” Yu Han praised sincerely. “His smelting skills are good, but his brain is really not very bright. I helped him to that extent, but it still failed at the last minute.”

Wei Xi raised his eyebrows and said with certainty, "When Zuo Fei made the bet with the Eastern Yi Demon Chief, you were the one who rigged it!"

Yu Han did not deny it, but calmly said, "He is useless, what can I do? The demon chief likes him very much, spared his life, and even planned to let him participate in the Green Moon Tide."

Wei Xi suddenly remembered what the Deep Sea Gambler had said; it turned out that this was the answer!
Before Wei Xi could say anything, Yu Han shoved a token into her hand and whispered, "Take this. I want to see just how much trouble you can get into!"

The Deep Sea Gambler's words point to Chapter 391
