“Sister, don’t be fooled. You can’t turn into a human and your demon qi is weaker than ever. Just what makes him think we will listen to him and stay here? You said he saved us, but I beg to differ!”
“Second sister is right, that guy is most definitely a cheater and a liar!”
“This is rich, a human with but a modicum of skill calls himself the disciple of God Pangu. Sister, did all these millennia stuck in there played with your mind to believe even this ludicrous lie?”
“Second sister, there’s no point in arguing with big sister. Let’s just outright kill that liar and be done with!”
“Fine, fine, we’ll do it your way!”
In the Yin Yang Array, jade pipa and nine-headed pheasant used wicked winds to storm out despite nine-tailed arctic fox’s repeated attempts to stop them.
Whoosh~
The two arrived downstairs but Warding Shadow God Ye Xiaolu barred their path.
Ye Xiaolu never appeared before humans, but against demons and evil creatures, she would treat them as enemies.
This was out of Ye Xiaolu’s control.
Jade pipa and nine-headed pheasant scuffled with Ye Xiaolu with the latter soon defeated.
Ye Xiaolu didn’t know magical arts. It was a trifle to block that sorry excuse of a soul cultivator, Yang Hongying, by relying on her spiritual qi. But against two demons, this was hardly enough.
In a blink, Ye Xiaolu’s soul was cut down to half her size and was slowly approaching her demise.
Nine-tailed arctic fox rushed to nine-headed pheasant and jade pipa, who shouted.
“Big sister, why are you so weak?”
“So what if we kill her?”
Nine-tailed arctic fox shook her head.
As the three demons quarreled, here came Li Mo all bruised out of the study.
Li Mo flipped his hand and Ye Xiaolu was back in the drawer.
Nine-headed pheasant and jade pipa watched him filled with disdain.
“Is a man with such meager stage even worthy of us three sisters?”
“Sisters, don’t nag. If it weren’t for him, you wouldn’t have recovered.”
Nine-tailed arctic fox turned human.
Li Mo asked Whitey, “What’s with them?”
“They just woke up and are unclear about the situation. Please forgive their insolence, deity.”
Nine-headed pheasant and jade pipa flew out of the living room using their wicked winds.
“Big sister, we’ve been confined for so long and want to stroll for a bit. That won’t be an issue, right?”
“Hi-hi, yang qi, living people. Oh, how tasty!”
Nine-headed pheasant and jade pipa flew away.
Clank~
The two just left Li Mo’s yard and fell on the ground in their original forms.
Nine-headed pheasant became just as the race implied. Just that she had no awareness whatsoever, no different from your average pheasant.
Jade pipa had it worse, turned into a musical instrument finding it impossible to even move.
Whitey’s face changed greatly.
“Don’t look at me. That isn’t my doing.”
Whitey kneeled, “I beg deity to save them!”
Li Mo smiled, “Why aren’t you saving them yourself?”
Whitey was silent.
“They say that foxes are cunning and they sure were right.”
Li Mo went and picked the pheasant and the jade pipa before going back into the living room.
“Throw them in the Yin Yang Array and they’ll soon wake up.”
Whitey took them and showed immense gratitude, “Thank you, deity.”
“Aren’t you curious why they’re in this state?”
“I am, but I won’t ask if deity doesn’t wish to tell me.”
“This world and yours are different. That goes the same for the Heavenly Laws and the spiritual qi density.
“Simply put, in this present environment, no demon can cultivate!
“The Heavenly Laws on Earth from three thousand years ago have changed. Countless ancient powerful figures had noticed this and left the planet in search of a better place.
“This is the reason behind ascending.
“As to those that chose to stay, their spiritual qi waned with the shift in Heavenly Laws. Demons, devils, monsters, and the like were all reduced to their original form over the course of time until the modern age, a time where only the rare few natural geniuses can still cultivate. Alas, the rare spiritual qi around severely limits their cultivation speed. The current natural geniuses can’t even compare with the powerful figures of a time long past.”
Whitey understood.
In Li Mo’s house, spiritual qi was aplenty and was also equipped with a Yin Yang Array. This turned the house into an imitation of an ancient environment. But once one left, it was the same as a fish out of water.
“I thank you, deity. I promise you, this won’t happen again.” Whitey bowed deeply in gratitude.
Whitey took her sisters to the Yin Yang Array, where they were up and about in no time at all.
The two demons had long since shed their prejudice.
“This array, this spiritual qi, they’re all provided by the deity. Without deity, you’d all be stuck this way. Do you understand?”
The two lowered their heads, “Sister, I know…”
When the two left the premises, they were struck by an undeniable power rending them back into their original form. The two demons felt death breathing down their necks.
Li Mo sat cross-legged in his study as he performed a special magical art to speed up his recovery.
The aliens didn’t just invade two years from now. They had long been here, on Earth. This gave Li Mo a feeling of impending crisis.
He had to speed up his growth!
“Deity!”
“Deity!”
As Li Mo was recovering, nine-headed pheasant and jade pipa entered the study.
“What is it?”
Nine-headed pheasant’s eyes wandered, “Thank you, deity, for saving us. We sisters wish to repay you.”
Li Mo waved them off, “Leave.”
The two demons stared dumbly.
They were about to leave when Li Mo called them.
“Wait.”
The two were overjoyed.

“Take out your demon core. Relax, I will only use them to heal myself. No harm will come to them.”
The two exchanged a glance and spat out their demon core for Li Mo.
With the help of the two demon cores, Li Mo was in tip-top shape in just under an hour.
Dear Readers. Scrapers have recently been devasting our views. At this rate, the site (creativenovels .com) might...let's just hope it doesn't come to that. If you are reading on a scraper site. Please don't.
After getting their demon cores back, the demons wobbled out of the study.
Upstairs, in the Yin Yang Array, Whitey smiled at her sisters returning, “Deity is an upstanding gentleman. I told you not to leave…”
But then she was alarmed seeing nine-headed pheasant and jade pipa’s weary looks.
“Sister, I’m tired. I’m going to rest.”
“I’m going to sleep for a bit…”
Nine-headed pheasant and jade pipa yawned as they turned into an egg and a pipa, already asleep.
Whitey was slackjawed…
