Before dawn, the sky was gray.
The fish, birds, and Dingling Mingyu combined into a faint ink painting, fusing all the colors into this gray mist.
The sleeping sea realm had yet to wake up, but Kunwu Shenyi had never fallen asleep.
In the pitch-black cold cave, his heart and his shadow seemed to be gray.
He was regretting, reflecting, and slowly reminiscing in such a restless night.
There was a woman in his memories, and only one woman.
"Wait, Yujiao!"
The voice from several years ago echoed in his mind again.
He had once called out the woman's name with such anticipation and enthusiasm.
The woman replied indifferently,"It's you!"”
"Yujiao! I didn't expect you to come back here!”
The woman's name was Yujiao.
"Why are you still looking for me?" The woman continued to ask indifferently.”
"Have you had a good year?"
The woman didn't answer." What are you doing here?" she asked.”
"Actually, I haven't thought about what I'm going to do specifically, but to be able to see you safe and sound, happy and blissful, I have no other requests!”
"Thank you for your concern! If there's nothing else, please leave!”
"Yujiao, I know you still hate me..."
"How would I hate you? I only hate myself for knowing you! We are clearly people from two different worlds, but why didn't you tell me earlier? Fortunately, I have gradually forgotten those things, and now I am very happy! Leave, it's impossible between us!"
"Impossible, it's indeed impossible, but why did this happen only now?”At this moment, the more he thought about it, the more confused he became, so he simply stopped recalling.
The woman had already become his wife, and then he had become the father of his child. Was all of this really not supposed to happen?
In his regret, his head felt like it was about to explode. It was not just the suffocating feeling brought about by the emotional chaos, but a severe pain that truly came from his brain.
This was not an illness, but a type of demon called the Illusion Fox. It would act up regularly every three days, making him wish he was dead.
"Kun Wu, how did you suddenly become like this?”It was very cold at dawn, but the Zither Master of the Demon Subduing Zither, Yuan Zhongting, still arrived as promised.
"Oh, Zither Master, you're finally here?"
"Didn't you already force the demonic aura out of your body?”
"Yes, that's about right!”
"But why do you look so painful?”
"That's because…"
"Because of what?"
Kunwu Shenyi continued to hold his head and gnashed his teeth in pain."To be honest, I was actually hit by the illusionary fox."
"Illusion Fox!" Yuan Zhongting was suddenly startled." Only those who are trapped by love can be attacked by the illusionary fox in the illusion. Kunwu, you..."
"Yes!" Kunwu Shenyi's forehead was covered in sweat, but his face was filled with regret."I am indeed like this, so much so that I can't extricate myself from it!”
"But I've never heard of you being entangled with any woman!”
"You don't know about this because she's not from the Sword World!”
"Oh!" "How long have you been dating that woman?" Yuan Zhongting was startled again.”
"It's been a long time!"
"In other words, you've actually started a family with her?”
"Yes!"
"Are there any children?"
"Yes!"
"Really?" The more Yuan Zhongting listened, the more he understood." If that's the case, then the probability of you escaping from the illusion that day was almost zero. Even if you didn't get hit by the Illusion Fox, the Demon Emperor would have controlled your brain in other ways. I think you definitely know this, right?”
Kunwu Shenyi did not deny this.
Yuan Zhongting continued to ask,"But you knew this, so why did you still decide to participate in the demon-subduing operation?"”
Kunwu Shenyi didn't answer. He just shook his head and sighed,""Since it has already happened, let it go. I will bear the consequences alone!”
"I definitely don't blame you. Slaying demons is the common mission of the Sword World. After the Demon Emperor was trapped for a thousand years, it seemed that his primordial spirit was destined to escape through the illusion. However, I want to know why you didn't tell me or the other island masters about this matter that concerns your life earlier!”
"I would have told you about this first because only your Demon Subduing Zither can help me expel the illusionary fox. However, it's a little earlier than I expected!”
The Demon Subduing Zither was in his hand. Yuan Zhongting was about to pluck the strings when he suddenly stopped.
The zither had no name. In the past, the zither master had a seven-day battle with the Water Demon of the Red Sea. In the end, he used this zither to subdue the demon at the shore of the Red Sea, hence the name of the Demon Subduing Zither.
In the past, he fought against the Demon Emperor with the help of the Demon Subduing Zither.
However, the Zither Master had never expected that he would be forced to use this Primordial Divine Artifact to deal with a mere Illusion Fox.
In fact, the abilities of the illusionary fox could be big or small. This did not depend on the illusionary fox itself, but on the person who was affected by the illusionary fox.
Kunwu Shenyi's situation was really terrible. He was trapped by love and was burdened by love. It seemed that he had already reached the limit of the people in the Sword World.
This way, the Illusion Fox's power would be unprecedentedly strong!
He had to quickly change his thoughts to avoid being controlled by the illusionary fox.
But now, it seemed that even if he did so immediately, it would not help.
Leave that woman!
Leave that woman!
Yuan Zhongting shouted twice in his ear, but then immediately exclaimed,""You... It seemed to be acting up again. Hurry up, hurry up and concentrate. Don't do anything, don't think about anything!”
As he spoke, he had already taken the Demon Subduing Zither from his shoulder!
This zither alone could not subdue a demon emperor, but it could subdue most demonic entities, and the illusionary fox was one of them.
It was like a red shadow that entered your mind, controlling your desires, then controlling all your thoughts, and finally turning you into a demon!
Although Kunwu Shenyi had escaped the control of the demon emperor's primordial spirit, it was very likely that he would soon become a demon fox with extremely strong demonic characteristics!
Now, he clenched his fists in unbearable pain and hammered the stone wall with the sound of the Demon Subduing Zither. His hands were bleeding.
"Zither Master, don't stop. Just continue to exert your strength!”
"If I don't stop, your life will be in danger!”
"Don't worry about me. No matter what, I have to leave this demon fox!”
"Don't speak, don't say a word! Hurry up!"
Kunwu Shenyi did not say anything else. Instead, he suddenly let out a hoarse cry and jumped out of the cave. He jumped on the tree like a crazy monkey and knocked his head on the tree trunk from time to time. Blood stained his forehead and cheeks.
Yuan Zhongting followed him and flew away. Although he had the Demon Subduing Zither in his hand, he did not play it for a long time!
"My head is about to explode. Zither Master, hurry up and do it!”
Hesitation. Yuan Zhongting was still hesitating.
When he suddenly heard the coquettish laughter of a woman, his hands suddenly trembled, and the sound of the zither that made the demon's heart tremble sounded.
It was obvious that Kunwu Shenyi's primordial spirit was almost completely controlled by the Illusion Fox. In other words, other than using the Demon Subduing Zither to drive the Illusion Fox away, there was no other way to save Kunwu.
And the most likely outcome was that due to being controlled too deeply, Kunwu and the Illusion Fox would both be destroyed by the zither music!
Yuan Zhongting was hesitant because of this. At the same time, he understood that when Kunwu became a demon fox, even that tiny opportunity would be lost. Kunwu Shenyi would never exist in the world.
Gradually, every part of Kunwu Shenyi's body seemed to be out of control. He suddenly rushed out of the forest and flew towards a vast sea area, seemingly struggling.
Yuan Zhongting quickly followed and continued to pluck the Demon Subduing Zither.
As the zither music played, the illusionary fox let out a demonic laughter again. A fiery red fox shadow even appeared on Kun Wu's body!
Immediately after, the phantom turned into a red-robed woman. It was also an illusion, and she was also smiling.
Yuan Zhongting suddenly became a little anxious. He exerted more strength in his hands and shouted sternly,""Demonic Fox, if you hurry up and come out, I, Yuan Zhongting, can spare your life. But if you insist on going your own way, only death awaits you!”
Hearing this, the demon fox suddenly laughed and said,""Do you dare? Would you kill your friends too?”
" Don't worry about me." A weak voice was heard.
This voice actually belonged to Kunwu Shenyi.
Yuan Zhongting couldn't help but tremble." Sure enough, Kunwu is about to be completely replaced by the demon fox. The chance of saving him now is very likely to only be one in a thousand!"”
With this thought in mind, he moved his body and started to spin upside down in the sky above the sea. When the zither music started again, the air currents in the circle rushed towards the demon fox like flames.
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Three loud bangs rang out in a row, stirring up monstrous waves. It was as if the entire sea area had turned red like fire!
Before long, the red color gradually faded, and a red shadow flashed out from the gradually calming waves.
This was a demon fox, also known as an illusionary fox!
"You didn't die?" Yuan Zhongting immediately raised his hand, and a light net immediately flew out. After Qi Su grew up, it covered the demon fox tightly.
Since Demonic Fox was not dead, Kunwu Shenyi should still be alive.
But where was he?
As the sea breeze passed by, a seemingly dead person suddenly appeared in the ripples that subsided!
