Chapter 725: Change of Thinking
When Xun Kun took Yun Xi and Han Yang to see Xuan Yuan Wei, the big boss had already completed the soul search and had a general understanding of Liao Ziqian, the target of the evil cultivator's mission. However, he still couldn't connect some of the details, so he patiently waited for his little disciple.

Because the formation above Pisces City was broken, the cultivators who had been watching from afar gradually entered Pisces City. Especially after they realized that a powerful demonic cultivator was present, they began to investigate what had happened in Pisces City.

As the parties involved in the fight, Xun Kun and the other two were immediately invited to the council hall of the city lord's mansion.

In front of everyone, Xun Kun recounted how the three of them returned to the Demon Realm together, only to be ambushed by evil cultivators while crossing the Nine Turns Mountain. The cultivators kidnapped his newly recruited disciple and even left behind men to hinder their pursuit.

"Relying on the mark left by Fellow Daoist Hanyang on Liao Ziqian, I tracked him all the way to the mountains a thousand miles away from Shuangyu City, and then I completely lost track of Ziqian."

In the end, it was Ranxi's plant pet that took action and located Ziqian's position. We then rushed to Pisces City, only to find that it was already shrouded in a huge evil array when we arrived.

The three of us judged that the cultivators inside the city were likely in grave danger, so we joined forces to break the evil formation. After that, we fought with a female evil cultivator, while the other male cultivator used the evil formation to forcibly raise his cultivation to the Mahayana stage.

Although the opponent was a pseudo-Mahayana cultivator, his strength was still above ours, so we had no choice but to join forces to fight him. To prevent the evil cultivator from escaping, Ranxi opened her own domain.

When Master arrived, we were already fighting the evil cultivator within the domain. Ranxi had exhausted her spiritual energy and had to withdraw from the domain. In the end, it was Master who delivered the fatal blow to the evil cultivator; otherwise, Ranxi and I would certainly have been seriously injured.

Xun Kun succinctly explained what had happened.

A high-ranking female demon cultivator then asked:
"Why did that evil cultivator specifically kidnap your disciple? Is there anything special about your disciple?"

Xun Kun lowered his eyes and said:
"This junior disciple has a dark spiritual root, which is best suited for cultivating demonic powers, but can also cultivate evil ones."

"No wonder."

There are some things that can't be made public yet, so Yunxi spoke up at the right time:

"When they kidnapped him, they probably didn't expect that there were three Nascent Soul cultivators with Ziqian by his side. We had been relentlessly pursuing him. When they realized that they couldn't escape, they adopted a ruthless approach of destroying what they couldn't have. They used the blood and resentment of the cultivators from Twin Fish City to try to draw evil energy into Ziqian's body and destroy his foundation."

Fortunately, we arrived in time and saved Ziqian. His spiritual root was not corrupted, and the evil energy within him has been expelled. He even turned misfortune into a blessing, successfully entering the Dao and is now a cultivator at the sixth level of Qi Refining.

Xuanyuan Wei nodded approvingly and said:
"Not bad, you did a good job, it's just a pity that the cultivators in this city have been harmed by evil cultivators."

Xun Kun spoke up at the opportune moment:

“Master, the evil cultivators have already set their sights on the disciples with outstanding aptitude in the Demon Realm. We must be on guard. It would be terrible if a disciple who had the same experience as Ziqian entered the Demon Sect. Not all disciples have three Nascent Soul cultivators protecting them.”

This disciple believes this matter should be widely publicized to raise awareness. If necessary, some details should be concealed from highly qualified disciples. It's not that we're afraid of evil cultivators, but rather that disciples who haven't yet matured are vulnerable to their schemes.

Xuanyuan Wei nodded solemnly and said:
"You're right, what do you all think?"

The cultivation levels of everyone present were lower than that of Xuan Yuanwei, so naturally they had no objections. Besides, who doesn't have a few outstanding and favored disciples? If they were to be targeted by evil cultivators, they would be the ones who would suffer the most.

Everyone agreed with Xun Kun's suggestion and felt that there was no need to hide such a thing. The cultivators of the Demon Realm should know that Pisces City was a living example. Only after suffering a painful lesson would they take it seriously and become more vigilant.

The remaining cleanup was naturally arranged by someone else, so Xun Kun and the other two went to see Xuan Yuanwei alone, using ready-made excuses to ask the ancestor to check on Liao Ziqian's situation.

After Xuanyuan Wei created an isolation barrier, he said directly:
"Xun Kun, what you said before might fool others, but I know you have other reasons for taking Liao Ziqian in. You'd better tell me the truth." Xun Kun stepped forward and cupped his hands in greeting.

“Master, I never intended to hide it from you. It’s just that those present at the time might not have been able to accept my way of handling things. But I didn’t lie to them; I just didn’t tell them the whole truth.”

After finishing speaking, Xun Kun recounted in detail the reasons why he took Liao Ziqian as his disciple, the reasons why Liao Ziqian was so highly regarded by the evil cultivators, and even the fact that he asked Ran Xi to accompany him just in case.

Finally, he recounted the entire process of treating Liao Ziqian, but omitted the mention of the "Ice Soul Cicada" after Ranxi's reminder.

Han Yang sat at the very end, looking completely absorbed in his own thoughts. He indicated that he had only hitched a ride on the flying boat, but unexpectedly got into trouble. However, he did not stand idly by and even stepped in to help at a crucial moment, which made Xuan Yuanwei have a good impression of him.

After listening to Xun Kun's explanation, Xuan Yuanwei connected all the dots and then said:

"Since Liao Ziqian will become the vessel for the evil god's body, why not eliminate him sooner? Wouldn't it be even more difficult to deal with him once he grows up?"

Xun Kun said helplessly:
“Master, I had thought about ending it all before, but now that Liao Ziqian is dead, won’t there be a second or third one?”

Rather than eliminating Liao Ziqian and then searching for that other vessel that's nowhere to be found, it's better to keep him in sight. If one day he truly becomes the vessel for an evil god, we'll know who to target.

Xuanyuan Wei shook his head and said:

“I think it’s still inappropriate to do this. Liao Ziqian hasn’t grown up yet. Once he starts cultivating and grows up, he will also have his own selfish desires and may not be able to keep his original intentions. At that time, he will be more easily invaded and controlled by the evil god’s body, after all, it is a divine body.”

These words silenced everyone, because the future is the most unpredictable thing.

Yunxi coughed lightly, breaking the silence:
"Senior, we can actually think about it differently. If the evil god's body has truly merged with Liao Ziqian, it will give us another chance to seal him. However, this time, it will be Liao Ziqian's physical body that is sealed."

While my previous words were partly meant to comfort Liao Ziqian, they weren't entirely meant to deceive him. If he could maintain his integrity, restrain his evil god body, and cultivate to ascend to the immortal realm, perhaps he could truly find a solution to the problem.

Han Yang's eyes lit up upon hearing this, while Xuan Yuanwei spoke thoughtfully:

"You mean to send this huge problem to the Immortal Realm?"

"Yes."

"What if even the Immortal Realm can't solve this?"

Yunxi replied very straightforwardly:
"Then let the Immortal Emperor go and ask the gods of the God Realm. Evil gods are also gods. The war of the gods was lost by the evil gods. Since they cannot completely eliminate the evil gods, they cannot leave this mess to the lower realm!"

"My abilities are limited; this is the only method I can think of."
