Above the Great Dao

Qing Yang cursed as he said: "I was born to be a beast, what clothes do I need? Now that you've become younger, I can't call you brother. Yiran, from now on, call me uncle."

He stepped into the tree hole, donned a sheepskin cloak, and came out.

However, in the eyes of other villagers, a green sheepskin cloak floated out from the tree hole.—Qing Yang had passed away, transformed into an evil spirit, usually unseen, only visible to them when Qing Yang wanted it. But seeing Qing Yang usually happens at night when the evil spirit Qing Yang roams around causing mischief.

"Is this your own skin tanned?"

Du Yiran touched the sheepskin cloak, curiously said, "The tanning is good, make one for me too."

"Sure, after I die, you can peel my skin off to make yourself a coat! This is my dad's skin!"

Qing Yang replied irritably, giving his chest two thumps, saying, "I heard from Old Chen that he once went to find you, you were hard-headed, and drove him away. After Old Chen came back, he said you might die. I was sad for a long time because of it. Why did you come back?"

Du Yiran walked towards the outskirts of the village, saying: "Sha Qiutong called me back. When Old Chen sought me out, my injuries worsened, indeed couldn't live for a few years, didn't want to sadden him, so I drove him away."

He left the stone house in Yuanlou Village and headed towards Gangzi Village with Qing Yang.

In the sky, a swarm of human-headed bees silently flew by, Qing Yang glanced up at them, sneered: "They see their elders and don't even greet!"

As he finished speaking, Azhuo descended from the sky, landing in front of them, bowing: "Uncle Du, Uncle Qing Yang."

Du Yiran sized up Azhuo, moved: "Qiao Zhuo, what step has your cultivation realm reached?"

"Just recently achieved the Mahayana Realm." Azhuo replied.

Du Yiran nodded lightly, saying: "You haven't disappointed Chen Yindou's nurturing. Chen Yindou, Sha Qiutong, Hu Xiaoliang, Qing Yang, and adding you to the mix, worthy of the title Five Great Evil People!"

Qing Yang and Azhuo heard this, each sneering smugly.

The group exited Qianyang Mountain, only to see the bearded man Hu Xiaoliang waiting outside Gangzi Village, saying: "Hurry, Sha Qiutong has been waiting for us for a long time."

He had just spoken when they saw a young woman leading a child by the hand coming from the village, accompanied by a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl who had grown quite charming.

Granny Sha glanced at them, smiled: "Today, the Five Great Evil People reunite, only missing Chen Yindou!"

The group laughed without speaking, glancing at the other four.

Du Yiran said: "Qiutong, what have you gathered us here for?"

Granny Sha said: "Isn't it Old Chen's instructions? Old Chen wants us to take care of his grandson, remove all the demons within his grandson. In the past, we tried pulling out one or two, which was extremely difficult and life-threatening. Now that I've become younger, Xiaoliang has come back to life, Azhuo has become Yin Commander, and reached the Mahayana Realm, adding that Old Du has regained youth, our strength has greatly increased. I think we could perhaps remove all the demons from Little Ten in one go!"

Qing Yang snorted.

Among the Five Great Evil People, besides it, the others either regained youth or rose from the dead, only it truly passed away.

"Luckily, Old Chen is with me..." It felt slightly comforted.

Du Yiran inquired: "How can we extract them?"

Granny Sha said: "Those demons are hiding in his Sea of Consciousness Abyss, when he's alive, the Sea of Consciousness Abyss is closed, those demons cannot come out. If we went in to exorcise, we could only use primordial spirits, entering means dying. When he is dead, these demons will rush to crawl out from the Sea of Consciousness Abyss, occupying his body. Exorcising at this time is actually the most stable."

Azhuo frowned: "Do we need to kill him first?"

Granny Sha laughed: "Not really kill him, just temporarily kill him. He's a Corpse Resolving Immortal, Water and Fire Refining of the physical body, dies without decay. You all can rest assured, I have experience with this. He's died not just once or twice."

Hu Xiaoliang frowned: "When he dies, he will undergo Demon Transformation, if Demon Transformation occurs, it will envelop a hundred-mile radius, I'm afraid all of Qianyang Mountain will be covered under his Demon Domain, with countless deaths and injuries!"

Granny Sha laughed: "I have already prepared, the place for the Demon Extraction is in the underworld!"

The group heard this, each hesitated a bit.

Sha Qiutong's preparations were something they were acquainted with.

Although Sha Qiutong has amazing skill in Soul Path, and is terrifyingly gifted, creating various soul-related spells, but has never been prepared enough, always ends up with various mistakes.

The spells Sha Qiutong creates usually reside in a state of being usable, useful, but with chances of error.

Qing Yang said: "Little Ten initially had these demons inside him, so when the Thirteen Families wanted to act against him, they had to reconsider. If we remove all the demons, doesn't it take away his means of self-preservation?"

Du Yiran, hands behind his back, said: "With me and the Four Great Evil People, what fear do we have of the Thirteen Families?"

"That's true."

Qing Yang nodded, excitedly said, "Let's act quickly, where is Little Ten? I'll go kill him!"
