The fairies I flirted with in the game became real?!

Standing outside the front gate of the Li residence, Li Muyang was momentarily dumbfounded by the chaos before him.

Primarily, he couldn't fathom why Yan Xiaoru had distracted him and kidnapped Li Damu and his wife. What was the purpose behind her actions?

The major sects and powers of both the Immortal and Demon paths wanted Li Damu and his wife to obtain the Startling Swan Immortal Sword from Li Muyang, intending to use them as leverage to force Li Muyang to show himself.

But Yan Xiaoru didn't need to do that!

She had already used the Heavenly Machine Pavilion's Star-Tracking Technique to divine Li Muyang's location.

With her cultivation level and strength, plus their emotional connection, she just needed to call out to him. Even if she came to kill Li Muyang, he had to face her and couldn't just hide away and ignore her.

Yet now, she had gone to great lengths to distract Li Muyang and kidnap Li Damu and his wife. Could it be that Li Damu and his wife had other uses to Yan Xiaoru?

But without Li Muyang, Li Damu and his wife were just two ordinary mortals. What significant use could they serve for Yan Xiaoru?

It didn't make sense!

Li Muyang furrowed his brows and asked, "Which direction did Yan Xiaoru flee?"

The Silver Serene sisters looked at each other and shook their heads simultaneously.

"We don't know; we lost her."

"She kidnapped them and initially fled westward. But when the Great General Spirit Monkey chased after her, he found only a decoy, and the real Yan Xiaoru has disappeared without a trace."

"The Nether Demon Manual's Escape Technique is unparalleled; she completely tricked us."

The Silver Serene sisters mentioned this with slight resentment.

For the Hidden Immortal Alliance, this was definitely a hugely embarrassing stain.

The whole world knew that the Hidden Immortal Alliance was secretly protecting Li Damu and his wife.

Yet Yan Xiaoru openly stormed into Fuyun City and kidnapped Li Damu and his wife, stepping all over the face of the Hidden Immortal Alliance.

Behind the Li residence, in Fuyun City, beams of Tunneling Light soared into the sky, scattering in all directions.

These were the Cultivators of the Hidden Immortal Alliance mobilizing to search for Yan Xiaoru.

Seeing this, Li Muyang marveled at the strength of the Hidden Immortal Alliance, but he also believed that these people wouldn't be able to catch Yan Xiaoru.

He himself was a practitioner of the Nether Demon Manual, fully aware of how potent the manual's Escape Technique was.

The mass mobilization of Cultivators from the Hidden Immortal Alliance only ensured that Yan Xiaoru wouldn't dare to fly openly using Tunneling Light.

But if she were to lurk in the shadows and stealthily move, with Yan Xiaoru's current cultivation level, she could leave unnoticed by tonight at the latest.

Realizing that the abduction of Li Damu and his wife was a foregone conclusion, Li Muyang helplessly massaged his temples.

"Let it be, let it be..."

He sighed complexly, then turned towards the unconscious Aunt Su and Junior Brother Xiao Cheng.

Both were severely injured, especially Aunt Su, who was almost split in half and whose Divine Soul was severely damaged, almost to the point of death.

Clearly, when Yan Xiaoru stormed in, Aunt Su, with her wandering realm cultivation, fought back desperately, only to be brutally incapacitated by Yan Xiaoru, nearly losing her life.

In contrast, Junior Brother Xiao Cheng, who had a lower cultivation, was knocked unconscious by Yan Xiaoru in a single move, hence his injuries were less severe.

Li Muyang squatted down, beginning to treat Aunt Su's injuries.

The Yin Sha Demonic Qi entwining Aunt Su, a corrosive demonic energy unique to the Ghostly Demon Technique, was extremely difficult to remove and continued to erode flesh, bones, and the Divine Soul.

Even with two Cultivators from the Hidden Immortal Alliance trying to save her, Aunt Su's condition was still dire.

As a practitioner of the Ghostly Demon Technique, Li Muyang sat aside, reaching out to grasp Aunt Su's wrist. He started to operate the demonic technique within his body to extract the Demonic Qi.

Handling this sort of bone-corroding Demonic Qi, Li Muyang had become very proficient.

With the help of two cultivators from the Hidden Immortal Alliance nearby, Aunt Su, who was originally on the verge of death, gradually began to recover.

The silver sisters, Silver Qing and Silver Ling, stood aside, watching Li Muyang as he silently healed Aunt Su, exchanging glances with each other.

After walking some distance, they whispered quietly.

"Sis, why isn't he in a hurry at all... At a time like this, he's still focused on healing? Shouldn't he be rushing to find people?"

"Being anxious is useless, also have you not heard the phrase 'nothing is more painful than a dead heart'?"

"What does that mean?"

"It means… uh… It's complicated to explain in a sentence or two, just know he's definitely very heartbroken right now. At times like this, it's best to stay away from him, this Li Muyang is really dangerous."

"Ah? Why?" Her sister looked puzzled.

Her elder sister looked solemnly behind them and whispered, "Outwardly, he seems indifferent, but who knows what he's thinking? He's someone who for a sister not related by blood, could storm into the black prison, overthrow the Refinement Demon Sect, and in doing so, sacrifice everything he had, being hunted by both immortals and demons, a man of extreme emotional depth."

"For a sister not related by blood, he could be so frantic, now that their parents have been kidnapped and their fate is unknown... can you guess how much crazier he might get?"

The elder sister pulled her younger sister even further away, whispering, "I heard that before this guy overturned the Refinement Demon Sect last time, he also went silent for days, like a dead man."

"When he finally erupted, he was terrifyingly the number one madman in the Cultivation World."

"What do other people in the Cultivation World call this guy?"

The older sister sneakily glanced behind, ensuring Li Muyang hadn't caught up, before whispering his nickname.

"Mad Demon…"

"Don't be fooled by his usually approachable appearance, once he truly goes mad, he's truly the number one Mad Demon of the Cultivation World."

"There's someone provoking him now… we better keep our distance, be careful not to get blood on you!"

The sisters quietly left, leaving the place to others.

Li Muyang, left there, was unaware of the younger sisters' quiet discussion.

He just quietly healed Aunt Su, but as time gradually passed, Li Muyang, while healing Aunt Su, shockingly discovered that the air around him had quieted down.

And it was a terrifying quiet.

Outside the Li mansion, the street was a mess; the Hidden Immortal Alliance had sealed off the area, not allowing outsiders in.

Cultivators from the Hidden Immortal Alliance kept moving through the ruins, searching for traces and treating injured members.

But everyone, including the severely injured cultivators from the Hidden Immortal Alliance, remained silent.

The entire scene was enveloped in silence.

Everyone was surreptitiously observing him, a suffocating and unsettling silence spreading across the scene.

And as Li Muyang sat next to Aunt Su in silence, healing her, this silent atmosphere became even more pronounced.

Li Muyang frowned, looking around to find that anyone he made eye contact with hurriedly lowered their heads, not daring to meet his gaze.

As if making eye contact would bring down calamity.

This strange fear left Li Muyang extremely puzzled.

— Why are they so afraid of me?
