Chapter 126: Evil Demons Can Be Kind Too!
Regarding this, Zhang Linyuan had absolute confidence, believing he could completely annihilate Li Tianwei.
Of course, the price was his own annihilation, but as long as he could kill Li Tianwei, this obstacle in his path, then everything was worth it.
This was what Zhang Linyuan thought in his heart, but the moment he associated it with annihilation, he didn’t know why—there was a sudden unwillingness to go through with it.
It was as if something within him had not been fulfilled—and that was indeed the truth. After all, from the moment evil demons were born, all evil demon consciousnesses coexisted.
From the very moment they existed, they carried the idea of giving everything for the evil demons. But why must they do so? Why must they act this way? Zhang Linyuan had never found an answer.
And now, as the moment arrived where he intended to give everything for the evil demons, he couldn’t help recalling those things Li Tianwei had spoken during his Dao-lecture.
He didn’t know why, but this so-called Same-Origin Connection, and his willingness to sacrifice everything for the evil demons… suddenly felt like a trap, a deception.
"No, I can’t think nonsense. How could it possibly be like that!"
Zhang Linyuan shook his head, his attack momentum not slowing, and his strike landed cleanly upon Li Tianwei.
The instant he touched him, Zhang Linyuan’s whole body trembled, immediately sensing something wrong.
He saw that Li Tianwei—who had supposedly been completely bound and sealed by the chains and shackles—looked entirely unscathed.
At some unknown moment, that strange half-core-half-infant thing that had shown its might in midair earlier had already been drawn by Li Tianwei to float before him.
Zhang Linyuan’s true demonic body shuddered, visibly expressing how utterly inconceivable this was to him.
"How is this possible? Weren’t you bound?"
Zhang Linyuan stared at Li Tianwei and asked.
"You mean these paper-thin shackles?"
Li Tianwei looked serene and indifferent. He glanced at the shackles and chains wrapped around himself and spoke.
With that, Li Tianwei shook his body lightly, and the shackles and chains attached to the void shattered into dust.
"It was indeed a rather novel method—trying to shake my emotions, my thoughts……"
"But it’s useless. A person like me—what I decide is absolutely correct. I have never been wrong, and I can’t be wrong."
"Trying to influence me… who do you think I am?"
Li Tianwei’s cold voice spread out.
At this moment, Zhang Linyuan—facing Li Tianwei—heard these words and, for some reason, when looking into Li Tianwei’s eyes, felt he wasn’t lying.
Just as Li Tianwei had said—once he decided something, no one could change it. Nothing could shake him, and nothing could influence him.
"Impossible. As long as one is a person, there must be weaknesses in thought and mindset. You can’t possibly have none."
Zhang Linyuan said in disbelief.
"Always the same words. Just because you haven’t seen it doesn’t mean it doesn’t exist. If it exists, it’s reasonable. You can’t do it—that doesn’t mean I can’t."
Hearing the same doubt yet again, Li Tianwei only felt fed up. They always insisted on lumping everything together.
After speaking, Li Tianwei directly reached out and placed his hand upon Zhang Linyuan’s true demonic body.
"I can feel many types of power fused within you. This should be your evil demons’ ability, right?"
The moment Li Tianwei’s hand pressed on him, Zhang Linyuan stiffened, a bad premonition surging up.
"What are you trying to do?"
Zhang Linyuan trembled instinctively. He never imagined that even after manifesting his true demonic body, he would still feel fear.
He had clearly prepared long ago to give everything for the evil demons. He shouldn’t be capable of fear.
This was what Zhang Linyuan thought—yet Li Tianwei’s next words plunged his heart into freezing despair.
"You carry the aura of my Scripture of Supreme Virtue and Radiant Purity. This power—does it affect you?"
Li Tianwei asked.
If Zhang Linyuan had a fleshly body right now, his eyes would have widened and he would have swallowed harshly.
Unfortunately, he was currently in his true demonic form.
"Since you carry the aura of my Scripture of Supreme Virtue and Radiant Purity, that means you can be enlightened by me as well."
"Come. Join us!"
A trace of violet flashed through Li Tianwei’s pupils. At the same time, a three-leaf circular-fan lotus platform emerged above his brow, circling a few times, and a halo manifested behind his head.
Simultaneously, the Scripture of Supreme Virtue and Radiant Purity manifested.
That utterly pure, completely cleansing force—able to wash away all filth—erupted in countless currents of power.
For an instant, Zhang Linyuan froze. Although he had witnessed this power through other perspectives within the Same-Origin Connection, this was his first time facing it directly.
"Opposites… restraint?"
Thoughts began to surface rapidly in Zhang Linyuan’s mind—those very words from Li Tianwei’s Dao-lecture—leaving his entire demonic body dazed.
Seeing this reaction, Li Tianwei naturally assumed that the Scripture of Supreme Virtue and Radiant Purity was taking effect.
"Looks like it’s working."
Li Tianwei nodded in satisfaction. Then he increased his force and began pouring the scripture directly into him.
One must not forget—when Li Tianwei had improved the scripture back then, he had added the concept of memetics into it.
And the thing that guided and triggered memetic influence—was the kindness Li Tianwei silently recited within his heart.
In Li Tianwei’s eyes, if humans could have evil demons, then why couldn’t evil demons have goodness? Look at Zhang Linyuan—he clearly had some.
No matter what Zhang Linyuan thought, he would never have imagined that the reason he was being affected like this was because he himself carried a trace of kindness.
An evil demon having kindness—only Li Tianwei would ever think of such a thing!
And wasn’t it perfectly normal for evil demons to become kind? It only proved how greatly his Scripture of Supreme Virtue and Radiant Purity contributed to establishing the Dao of Kindness.
Strictly speaking, Zhang Linyuan was an evil demon, but he had a trace of goodness within his heart—that trace being his willingness to sacrifice everything for the evil demons.
That meant he was willing to give everything for others.
If that wasn’t kindness, what was?
Thus, grasping this sliver of kindness, Li Tianwei activated the scripture.
From the System, he had learned that evil demons shared a form of connection that allowed them to sense one another’s thoughts.
Since that was the case—borrowing Zhang Linyuan to transmit his own kindness to the other evil demons—wasn’t that wonderful?
"Come. Scripture of Supreme Virtue and Radiant Purity."
Li Tianwei silently chanted.
Pressing down firmly on Zhang Linyuan, he activated the scripture in full.
He planned to properly enlighten him—thoroughly.
Zhang Linyuan seemed to realize what was coming and struggled desperately, but it was useless. He couldn’t escape anything now.
He could only watch helplessly as Li Tianwei continued pouring in everything that had influenced him before.
Rumble rumble rumble……
Zhang Linyuan’s vision darkened, while Li Tianwei continued his unrelenting methods.
Very soon, countless thoughts descended into Zhang Linyuan’s consciousness. Meanwhile, the evil demons connected to him through the Same-Origin Connection had yet to realize that a great terror was about to befall them.
The pure power of the Scripture of Supreme Virtue and Radiant Purity surged outward.
The previously unmoving disciples of the Sacred Land of Lingxu were all currently raising their heads, gazing at Li Tianwei—and the true demonic body in his grasp.
A pure, immaculate power appearing upon a being filled with demonic malice… inexplicably, it felt harmonious—like the interwoven balance of black and white.
