Great Love Immortal Venerate: Why are all my fairies yandere?

"Their target is us."

Jing Lixue couldn't help but think of someone, and her face turned somewhat pale as she said, "Could it be that Xu Yuan really believes these demon clans dare to make a move on all the cultivators within the city?"

"That's true,"

Xu Yuan thought for a moment and nodded.

If the strength of the demon clans were really that strong, Dawn City would have been turned upside down long ago.

As for why they chose to target the two of them.

Xu Yuan already had an answer in his heart.

The two of them had one thing in common; they were both candidates for the Four Divine Beasts Formation.

"If that's the case, then where should we go to find this so-called breach in the dream world?"

"Haven't I already told you? It's in the deepest recesses of the heart. Since it's the heart's deepest secret, naturally only oneself would know, so you shouldn't be asking me this question."

Jing Lixue smiled faintly.

"Is that so?"

Xu Yuan's expression was unswayed, "But you seem to have come prepared."

"Being prepared at all times prevents trouble. Naturally, I have come prepared," Jing Lixue replied, her tone unhurried and her expression unflustered.

"Forget it," Xu Yuan wanted to say more, but his expression suddenly turned grave again.

"Wuuu wuuu wuuu—"

Amid the eerie fog, there suddenly came the lamenting cries of women, and at the same time, dark shadows began to shuttle back and forth.

"Why... Why betray us?"

"I hate this! I hate this!"

"Didn't we agree to share the world? Why!"

Xu Yuan gripped the Thunderfire Sword tightly, the Jade Foot Sword Qi in his mouth ready to be unleashed.

"Fighting them is pointless."

Jing Lixue suddenly stopped and stared straight ahead.

Following her gaze, Xu Yuan was shocked to see an extremely terrifying scene.

A headless bride in a bloodstained dark red wedding gown blocked their way.

"Where is my head?"

A ghostly voice emanated from her body.

Xu Yuan, feeling the immense power at the peak of its strength within him, opened his mouth expressionlessly.

Enveloped in lightning, a sparkling and translucent jade toe shot out like a beam of sword light.

At the moment the sword qi struck, the belly of the young girl twisted eerily and swallowed it in.

"The headless girl," Jing Lixue's face became somewhat tense as she said, "This is the rule of the bizarre."

"The rule of the bizarre?"

Xu Yuan asked, "What does that mean?"

"There are four types of creatures in this world: demons, spirits, ghosts, and monsters. What we call the demon clans are actually our general term for them. The headless resentful spirits belong to the third type. It's said that they are born headless and would constantly search for a head that fits their body until, in the end, when they grow a perfect head, they could become immortals."

"And then?"

The red bride staggered towards them; with each step, a dark red blood print was left on the bluestone floor.

"They will act according to certain rules. To kill them, either use their own rules against them or... destroy them by overpowering them with a strength several realms higher. Now, coupled with the characteristics of the Dream Demon Realm, they can be considered an unsolvable existence," Jing Lixue said solemnly.

Xu Yuan's eyes sparkled as he nearly grasped Jing Lixue's meaning.

They needed a quick battle to avoid being dragged down here.

He held the sword with both hands and closed his eyes slightly.

Firelight emanated from around him, and the cold fog which had already begun to erode the area around him for several meters hissed as it was forced back.

Sensing danger, the headless bride let out an anxious roar.

She no longer walked towards them but sluggishly raised her pale, chilling arms, pointing at Xu Yuan from a distance and clenching in the air.

Crack crack crack—

Xu Yuan felt his head oddly beginning to deform.

Yet his surrounding spiritual power shield seemed to be unaffected.

"Truly bizarre," he thought to himself, but with little fear in his heart.

All fear comes from a lack of firepower, after all.

"Buddha's Fury Lotus!"

As his indifferent voice fell, the sword traced out dazzlingly strange spiritual patterns, followed by a lotus flower with a mixture of blue and white, pure and crystalline, emerging in the air.

As soon as the crystalline lotus appeared, the body of the headless bride began to tremble, making sounds like teeth chattering or bones clashing non-stop.

"Go."

Xu Yuan's face slightly paled, a sign of excessive spiritual power exhaustion.

But he still controlled the Fire Lotus to spin towards that red-dressed apparition.

Boom.

The sound of the collision caused even the vast sea of cold fog that enveloped Dawn City to ripple slightly, and by the time the firelight dissipated, the headless bride was nowhere to be seen.

Xu Yuan grabbed her soft, boneless hand and headed towards the deep end of the long corridor whose end was not in sight.

His intuition told him that, if nothing went wrong, the so-called secret of his heart should be there.

When they rounded another corner, Xu Yuan's steps suddenly halted,

He then realized that the surroundings had changed.

The winding corridors of the deep mansion had vanished, replaced by two peaks soaring toward the firmament's end, as straight as swords.

However, this scene only appeared for a moment before the Yin Peak of the Sword Sect was once again enveloped in thick fog.

"Is this... Yin Peak of the Sword Sect?"

Xu Yuan's face darkened slightly.

"It seems we're heading in the right direction," Jing Lixue said softly as she contemplated Sword Peak. "We are already delving deeper into the core of Xu Yuan's heart."
