Looking at the terrifying Li Huowang, Bai Lingmiao leaned against him with a faint smile, and gently rubbed against him in a more comfortable position.
"You're so scared, lie down quickly, and I'll explain it to you slowly."
Li Huowang's tense body relaxed, but his heart was still tense. Is the Bai Lingmiao in front of him a deity or a twin soul?
This must be clarified, as it will determine what he should do next.
Bai Lingmiao squinted and thought for a moment, but suddenly laughed inexplicably.
"Why are you laughing? Hurry up and tell me!"
"Ah, it's really hard to explain with ordinary words."
"Then use the simplest words. The simpler, the better."
Upon hearing this, Bai Lingmiao thought for a moment and then slowly said, "Huowang, do you know what is in a person's body? Or what a person is made of?"
These words made Li Huowang frown. He didn't understand what the other party was trying to explain with such nonsense.
"Hey~ Huowang, take a guess, take a guess." Bai Lingmiao deliberately acted cute, which made Li Huowang uncomfortable. The previous Bai Lingmiao would never do such a thing.
"The physical body?"
"Uh-huh~" Bai Lingmiao shook her head slightly. "How should I put it? If you have to say it, a person is formed by the ten emotions and eight sufferings. The ten emotions are joy, anger, sorrow, greed, resentment, infatuation, fear, love, and hatred. The eight sufferings are birth, old age, sickness, death, separation from loved ones, encountering enemies, not getting what one desires, and the five aggregates. They guide all human actions and activities."
Li Huowang's heart trembled. "Who told you all this? Immortals?"
"What's the rush! Let me finish." Bai Lingmiao glared at Li Huowang dissatisfiedly and continued, "When a person doesn't use some of the ten emotions and eight sufferings, they don't disappear, but rather hide."
"It's normal to hide, but it's different from possessing a twin soul. A person with a twin soul usually has two sides, a deity and a twin soul."
Li Huowang silently looked at the two women on his left and right, waiting for Bai Lingmiao to continue.
"Although we share the eight sufferings, the ten emotions are separate. The immortals used my hidden ten emotions, combined with some of their scattered things, to create the twin soul."
"So you mean..."
"Yes, we are the same person. Although our memories are somewhat different, we are both Bai Lingmiao. It's just that because of the evil qi, I used up joy, anger, resentment, and greed, so naturally, she doesn't have them anymore."
"The previous Bai Lingmiao didn't use joy, anger, resentment, and greed much, so the twin soul used them."
Li Huowang looked at the faces in front of him, which were so close, and his mind was in chaos. These were all things he heard for the first time.
"Who told you all this? Immortals? Don't trust them too much! Maybe they're deceiving you!"
"Why would the immortals deceive you with something well-known? They're not like the Taoist sects that deceive beings."
It was Red who said this. When he appeared, Li Huowang instinctively wrapped Bai Lingmiao's body with the quilt.
"Do you also know about the ten emotions and eight sufferings?" Li Huowang hesitated and asked him.
"It's nothing new. It's a common thing. Aren't you hiding in the Celestial Bureau? Just ask a few more people casually, and you'll know if what I said is true or false."
After such a long time in this world, Li Huowang only found out about the so-called ten emotions and eight sufferings now.
"That kid from the Luo Sect, the one with the Elemental Infant, seems to have mentioned these things before, but I didn't pay attention."
Li Huowang remembered that his cultivation philosophy seemed to be about getting rid of all the ten emotions and eight sufferings and becoming the only one.
"So, Huowang, do you understand now? There's just a little more joy, anger, resentment, and greed in me, but I'm still Bai Lingmiao. And this kind of Bai Lingmiao is more free, more...comfortable!"
"No, the previous one, that's the Bai Lingmiao I know!"
Upon hearing this, Bai Lingmiao didn't get excited at all and directly pointed to the twin soul beside her. "Isn't she? The one who is submissive, indecisive, and weak."
Li Huowang looked up at the twin soul, and when he saw the pitiful and familiar eyes in the huge beast pupils, he instinctively reached out and gently embraced her.
"Okay, you guys are busy. I'll make room for you." After putting on a bellyband and pants, Bai Lingmiao opened the curtain and left.
Li Huowang gently pressed his face against the cold scales and sharp hedgehog spines, feeling the sensation of them scratching his skin.
"Don't worry, I will make you return to normal, I promise!" Li Huowang's words were resolute.
In the following period of time, with the care of Bai Lingmiao and the twin soul, Li Huowang's body gradually recovered, but his mood became more and more uneasy.
It had been such a long time, and the lack of any news from Jixiang made Li Huowang worry if something had happened to her.
Another day dawned, and Li Huowang woke up. As he sat up with the support of the bed board, a soft foot kicked him hard.
"Hey! You're so annoying! You woke me up again!"
Li Huowang was already used to it. He opened the quilt and got up, quickly covering the quilt again to prevent the heat from escaping.
He opened the window and jumped onto the roof. Then, he patted his abdomen with his hand and took out an enlightenment book to start reading.
A tentacle wrapped around his eyeballs and emerged from his navel, carefully reading the book.
Listening to the voice in his ear that completely overlapped with his own recitation, Li Huowang also understood that the task of this book was almost completed, and he needed to find something else to teach Li Sui.
But he was having trouble deciding what to teach. With his level, he could only teach Li Sui enlightenment books.
As for the more difficult classical Chinese books, he really didn't know how to teach them.
"Should I just give up? I don't plan to make him the top scholar anyway. He can speak fluently now, and our relationship is harmonious. It has already achieved the goal I set before."
"Dad, I want to learn this." Li Sui rolled up a piece of ginger yellow paper with a tentacle and presented it to Li Huowang.
"You want to learn talisman drawing?" Li Huowang couldn't help but find it strange. Just thinking about the appearance of a wriggling tentacled monster drawing talismans was weird.
Just as Li Huowang was hesitating whether to give it a try, a dark shadow flashed by in the air. Before Li Huowang could raise his head, a stack of letters fell from the sky.
"What is this?" Li Huowang's heart pounded. When he quickly opened the letters and saw the words "Ear Nine Tower," his pupils contracted instantly.
"This is what Jixiang promised to give me!"
Excited, Li Huowang read the letter word by word, searching for the words "Beifeng."
As he searched, Li Huowang suddenly stopped. His breathing became rapid, and his palms became sweaty.

"Since parting in Yinyinling, more than twenty days have passed, and now..."
According to the records in the Celestial Bureau, this Beifeng from the Taoist sects is also a heart-element!
It is because he is a heart-element that he can dispel the illusions that increase with age. He lived to be one hundred and ninety-four years old!
Not only that, based on the interactions between the Celestial Bureau and him, Beifeng really has a way to get rid of illusions!
At this moment, Li Huowang was excited and tears welled up in his eyes. After all the hardships he had gone through, he finally felt hope in this moment!
