Chapter 319: Chapter 230: Deceased Wife in the Mortal World (Extended Chapter)

After a long time, Li An finally woke up.

Opening his eyes, he found himself in a room in the Imperial Palace of Great Li. With difficulty, he propped himself up, opened the door, only to see a vast white glow in front of the room, the aura of an array completely uncovered.

Evidently, he was imprisoned!

Li An sighed helplessly, then closed the door and sat back on the bed. He began to meditate, hoping to restore his cultivation.

However, as soon as he operated his cultivation technique, pain caused his entire body to convulse. From his Dantian, waves of severe pain came, biting his teeth to the point of nearly breaking, he couldn’t help but vomit, and what he spat out was all fresh blood...

So painful that he vomited, so painful that he convulsed!

Cold sweat covered his face. After a long, long time, he lay powerlessly on the bed, tears fell from his eyes, a deep despair evident in them.

For any Golden Core cultivator whose core breaks and whose Dantian is destroyed... it would be despairing.

He closed his eyes, a mournful expression on his face.

Yet in his mind, he was repeatedly calculating.

Everything he did just now was merely an act.

He was thinking, reflecting on his actions before and after, and the "memories" constructed in his mind, whether they could successfully deceive those from the Spirit Realm...

Yes, he fabricated a memory!

He concocted a story, this story based on his past experiences, with some adjustments. The story’s premise was simple: he was saved by Shangguan Xiaoxiao, taken as her disciple, hence willingly serving her, but in the end, she mercilessly abandoned him, taking the Demon Coffin of the Demon Emperor and leaving, leaving Li An, whose entire being was crippled, to die in the Emperor Origin Realm...

And he solidified this story into his memory using Demon Skill.

It was meant to handle a Soul Search!

What Shangguan Xiaoxiao said was not wrong, if he only had Demon Skill, it would definitely be exposed. The Dao Sect’s depths are unfathomable, when that pendant hung from his forehead, he felt an inexplicable panic, as if facing an unparalleled powerhouse clothed in holy light, scrutinizing him. If even a trace of the Demon Skill was in his memory, it would surely be discovered.

But he also had the Life Nourishing Immortal Skill!

The Life Nourishing Immortal Skill is definitely a great righteous cultivation technique of great origin, turning Demon Skill invisible and traceless, even the other side couldn’t find a clue.

Looking at it now, his plan should have succeeded!

"In the Spirit Realm, I’m just someone who once practiced Demon Skill, but now has become a crippled person..."

"For someone like me, there are only two choices: one, kill me, after all, I once followed the second princess of the Demon Sect, this charge is enough. Second, keep me, because I possess some Demon Dao offensive techniques, such as the Four Death Skill, inheritances of Demonic Arrays, and even, I understand Shangguan Xiaoxiao better, which might be useful against her in the future..."

How to choose is an obvious proposition!

After all, Li An has already become thoroughly crippled, unable to stir up trouble, posing no threat to the Spirit Realm.

Will the Dao Sect of the Spirit Realm kill someone who has no threat but great usefulness?

This is the final foothold of Li An’s entire plan—

After participating in the battle of Yellow Springs Valley, any other choice or path would bring more trouble, for instance, his escape would lead the Spirit Realm to seal the entire Emperor Origin Realm, just to fish him out, leaving Li An truly with tears of regret.

Only in this situation, facing actively, showing weakness, and enticing with benefit is the best strategy.

The Dao Sect of the Spirit Realm will definitely bring Li An back, and at first, he will undoubtedly be the focus of attention, but over time, as a crippled person, he will mostly be left unattended...

Overall, the plan should have no major problems! 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Of course, he also thought about Gu Hong, Tan Qingxue, and others... they would also be subjected to Soul Searching and interrogation, but their information was not very critical, posing no significant hindrance to Li An.

The only thing was, Tan Qingxue had once been saved by him using the power of the Life Seed of the Life Nourishing Immortal Skill, so to prevent this risk, Li An specifically made up some information about a particular meridian in his Demon Body having special effects, and that the meridian still retained some residual energy, but it was now completely destroyed...

...

Just as Li An guessed.

Other than him, everyone else was also locked in the Imperial Palace of Great Li, being interrogated, with their souls searched one by one.

...

"Senior Sister, it seems there are no problems, the whole story has become very clear."

In the secret hall of the imperial palace, Zhan Qingxuan’s junior brother, Xu Pingxiu, said: "Thousands of years ago, Shangguan Shengxian was likely pursued by the Spirit Realm, and hid in this realm, her purpose being to find the Demon Coffin of the Demon Emperor."

"She established the Great Li Empire, swept across the world, and nurtured the Immortal Talent Hall, among others, all in preparation for the Demon Emperor’s tomb."

"But she didn’t expect her sister to come as well, and moreover, to sabotage her plans, piloting the Demon Coffin away."

"And on the Demon Race’s side, that Demon Emperor of the past likely obtained some fortuitous encounters from the Demon Emperor’s tomb by accident."

Zhan Qingxuan nodded. This information had been investigated many times during this period, and it should generally be without issues.

"However, there are still some oddities regarding Li An. According to Tan Qingxue’s memories, her early survival at the Qingyang market, and later defeating the soul of Demon Queen Jing Chan, is inevitably connected to Li An..."

Zhan Qingxuan’s junior sister, Zeng Xueyao, spoke, with a hint of doubt in her eyes.

This was a point of suspicion!

"Although Li An’s Demon Body is not a true inborn Demon Body, the fact that it caught Shangguan Shengxian’s attention means it’s still somewhat special. He has a meridian, quite peculiar, able to continuously generate vitality... it’s rather similar to the legendary Evergreen Body in the Spirit Realm."
