Though the demonic thoughts pertained to a five-star mission, it could not be completed without one’s life intact.

Demonic thoughts were unlike anything else. If one was affected, their physical body in reality could face detrimental effects. It was extremely dangerous.

“No way!” Hu Xiaotian immediately shook his head.

“These demonic thoughts have been battling within me for twenty years, I despise them from the core of my being. If I allow them to recover, they will come back for me sooner or later.”

With that, he took out a storage ring, waved his hand, and a surge of energy swept the Demonic Source Pearl into the ring before passing it to Su Nan.

“I will keep the pearl in this storage ring for now. As long as you don’t open the ring, the demonic thoughts, even if they recover, won’t be able to break free within a month.”

“I’ll find a way to deal with what comes after.

The confinement would only last a month?

Su Nan felt a sinking feeling in his heart, suddenly understanding why the countdown for the task was a month.

If no solution to the demonic thoughts was found in a month, they would break free on their own.

Nonetheless, he was not overly worried.

It’s just a five-star task. If it came down to it, he wouldn’t do it.

If the countdown to the task was about to end and Hu Xiaotian found a solution, then helping him complete a five-star mission would obviously be best.

Otherwise, if no solution was found, he would just throw the ring far away.

After all, Hu Xiaotian was the one who would be out of luck.

With these thoughts in mind, Su Nan accepted the ring.

And that marked the end of the matter with the demonic thoughts, for the time being.

“It’s been a long time since I’ve been out and about, I wonder if those old timers still remember me,” Hu Xiaotian mused, a look of anticipation in his eyes.

“Young friend, it’s been over twenty years since I’ve been out, I need to meet some old friends. I’ll take my leave first. If you need anything, you can find me in Tianyun City,” he said.

Without waiting for Su Nan to respond, Hu Xiaotian disappeared from the cave. “Tianyun City? That’s perfect,” Su Nan nodded.

Upon leaving the cave, the ghosts that had been scattered across the mountain forest had completely vanished, evidently taken away by Hu Xiaotian.

At the same time,

at the foot of the mountain, precisely when the ghosts vanished, Ji Changfeng and others instantly sensed that something was off.

“All the ghosts have vanished. Could it be that the Outsider was successful?” Ji Changfeng speculated.

“That quickly?” Song Zhi and the others were even more surprised.

In their opinion, the Tiger Demon was a King-level Great Demon. Even if the outsider had a way to draw out the demonic thoughts, it was not something that could be achieved in a short while.

If it was really that easy, the Tiger Demon wouldn’t have been troubled for so many years.

The three exchanged glances, eventually sighing at the Outsider’s unusual methods.

“Brother Ye must have succeeded.”

“Quickly, check the ranking list. I wonder how much Brother Ye’s ranking will increase this time.”
