Ye Yu’s figure flickered as he tried to leave the area.

But Hua Junshuang clearly had no intention of letting him go so easily.

She raised a finger.

A strip of white cloth shot forward at extreme speed, instantly wrapping Ye Yu into a tight bundle.

In an instant, his body was completely restrained. No matter how hard he struggled, he could not break free.

He could only fall helplessly to the ground.

Hua Junshuang walked forward at an unhurried pace, a satisfied smile on her face.

"You think you can leave that easily? When you said you were going to search my soul just now, you looked pretty excited."

Hearing this, Ye Yu felt extremely embarrassed.

When Elder Ge had been present, he had naturally been fearless.

Now, however, Hua Junshuang had completely taken over Elder Ge’s divine soul. Judging from that mysterious white cloth, she could even freely use Elder Ge’s divine artifacts.

Under such circumstances, Ye Yu was absolutely no match for her.

Soul search was definitely out of the question.

If Hua Junshuang saw the Dream System in his divine soul, who knew what trouble she might come up with?

Therefore, he absolutely could not let her use the Soul Search Technique on him.

So Ye Yu began his final struggle.

With a solemn expression, he asked, "How about we discuss this? Don’t search my soul, alright?"

"No."

Hua Junshuang shook her head teasingly.

"No? Then just kill me instead. Go ahead!"

With Ye Yu’s furious shout—

From the clouds below, a ghostly god shot upward, delivering a lightning-fast punch that slammed into Hua Junshuang.

The mere force of the punch tore apart the clouds within a hundred-meter radius.

Hua Junshuang was blasted away on the spot.

It looked severe, but in reality, she suffered no damage at all.

Because Hua Junshuang was currently controlling Elder Ge’s body.

And Elder Ge had never lacked divine artifacts.

Let alone this sudden demon god, who was only at the early Golden God Realm—even a peak Golden God Realm cultivator, or even someone at the Ancient God Realm, would not be able to break the defense of the robe on Elder Ge’s body.

Hua Junshuang returned at top speed and threw out a broken sword.

The broken sword transformed into a streak of sword light, unstoppable and pressing forward without hesitation.

The demon god, known for his powerful physique, did not even have time to defend before his body was pierced through in an instant, shattering on the spot.

Hua Junshuang lowered her head and saw the demon god’s body begin to dissolve into specks of starlight, rapidly dispersing.

This was not a normal member of the Divine Race. It seemed more like an existence that had already fallen.

That was correct. This demon god was the product Ye Yu had just summoned using Demon Conversion.

The truth was, after stepping into this divine mountain—

For safety’s sake, Ye Yu had immediately used Demon Conversion to summon two protectors of the Dao.

He had ordered them to scout the surrounding environment.

His original intention had been for them to guard against external danger.

Unexpectedly, the danger had come from right beside him.

However, this at least allowed them to demonstrate their value.

One demon god protector entangled Hua Junshuang in battle, while the other divine protector carried Ye Yu—still wrapped like a rice dumpling—and turned to run.

And there was no need to consider it troublesome.

Rather than stopping to study how to remove the white cloth binding Ye Yu, it was better to first bring him to a safe place.

The logic was sound.

But even so, it seemed impossible to completely shake off Hua Junshuang.

In less than ten breaths—

Hua Junshuang’s figure had already appeared above Ye Yu.

"Little one, do you really think you can escape?"

Seeing this, Ye Yu’s pupils contracted sharply. He immediately ordered the protector carrying him to stop.

Hua Junshuang had just opened her mouth to speak again—

But when she clearly saw the person beside Ye Yu, her expression changed drastically.

"Li... Li Mu?"

Hearing this, Ye Yu instinctively looked at the protector beside him.

He had not looked carefully earlier. He had only known that beneath the divine mountain, there had been two usable corpses.

One male demon god. One female member of the Divine Race.

Could it really be such a coincidence?

Could this woman truly be Zhu Xincheng’s mother, Elder Ge’s wife—Li Mu?

Ye Yu quickly flipped through the memories in her mind.

The moment he checked, he was shocked.

It really was Li Mu.

Not only did he confirm her identity, he also learned the origin of the white cloth binding him.

The item’s original form had been the swaddling cloth Zhu Xincheng had been wrapped in when she was just born.

Elder Ge had found it deeply meaningful and had spent great effort refining it into a mid-grade divine artifact.

To undo it was very simple. One only needed to recite the incantation.

"Baby, be good good."

...What an embarrassingly cutesy phrase.

But whether embarrassing or not, he still had to say it.

After Ye Yu finished reciting it with visible shame, the white cloth around him suddenly loosened and fell to the ground.

The moment he regained his freedom, he intended to flee with Li Mu.

But he suddenly felt a force of resistance.

This had never happened with previous Demon Conversion creations.

Ye Yu turned to look.

He saw Li Mu staring fixedly at Hua Junshuang in the distance.

Those pitch-black eyes flickered with an unusual light.

Without question, this was the powerful obsession she had harbored before death.

But this was not the time to be stubborn.

I’m only at the Great God Realm, and you’re at the Heavenly God Realm. Even combined, we’re still no match for Hua Junshuang.

If we don’t leave now, you’ll just die again.

Well... you’ve already died once. You’re probably used to it.

Then I’ll leave the rear guard to you.

If you don’t shatter completely, I’ll come back for you. At the very least, I’ll let Zhu Xincheng see her mother again.

After calculating everything in his heart, Ye Yu prepared to leave—

But suddenly, Hua Junshuang’s body began to tremble violently.

She looked as though she had been struck by heavenly lightning.

Her appearance shifted back and forth between Elder Ge and Hua Junshuang.

Seeing this, Ye Yu immediately realized—

This had to be Elder Ge. After seeing Li Mu, his emotions had surged, and he had begun to fight Hua Junshuang for control of the body.

"Oh? This might be a perfect opportunity."

If he could help Elder Ge regain control, Ye Yu was certain his safety would increase dramatically.

He abandoned the idea of running and immediately prepared to step forward to help Elder Ge.

But after getting close, he suddenly remembered—

He had no idea how to assist in a struggle over control of a body.

Ye Yu turned his gaze toward Li Mu again.

He began considering whether he should bring her closer.

Perhaps that would give Elder Ge even more fighting spirit.

Just as Ye Yu was thinking—

A cold, sinister aura suddenly spread through the air.
