After exiting the prison, the police brought Xie Xiaofeng to an interrogation room. As soon as Xie Xiaofeng entered, his parents, grandfather Xie Da, and younger brother Xie Xiaoluan immediately rose from their seats and walked to Xie Xiaofeng.

"Xiao Feng, how could you be so impulsive as to pull a knife on Haozi?" Xie Xiaofeng's mother grabbed his hand with a worried frown.

Standing behind Xie Xiaofeng's mother, his father snorted angrily, his face turning an angry blue.

Xie Xiaofeng didn't respond to his mother's question and instead walked up to his grandfather Xie Da, with a stern face, and demanded, "Grandpa, tell me, by bringing me here, does it mean that the Seven Fairies are going to make a move on Chen Hao?"

"Xiao Feng!" Xie Da's eyes widened in shock as he asked, "You know everything so clearly, could this be... "

Xie Xiaofeng let out a cold snort of laughter, proudly saying, "Correct! This is all an act put on by Chen Hao and me!"

"Ah!" Xie Da suddenly panicked, "This isn't good, I need to notify them immediately!"

"Grandpa, you're already too late!" Xie Xiaofeng said with a slight shake of his arm and a smile.

Xie Xiaoluan looked at Xie Xiaofeng and Xie Da, puzzled, and asked, "Grandpa, brother, what do you mean by this?"

...

Meanwhile, inside the prison.

"Hmph!" The Bi Luo Fairy sneered viciously, "It seems heaven is on my side. I'd like to see where you can escape to today."

Chen Hao took a step forward, shielding Ye Yuqiao behind him, and with narrowed eyes and a faint smile, said, "Are you sure it's heaven that's helping you?"

After those words, he lifted his right hand to his chest and straightened his index and middle fingers. Then, he closed his eyes and began to recite incantations. These incantations were given to him by the shadowy figure that appeared in his mind last night when Ye Yuqiao unlocked the seal on his Dantian.

A few seconds later, Chen Hao abruptly opened his eyes, and a powerful burst of Yang Energy flowed from his body. Suddenly, the air around him began to distort as if rippling waves were spreading out in all directions.

After the Yang Energy dispersed, a circle flashing with golden light appeared on the ground, enclosing Chen Hao and the Seven Fairies while Ye Yuqiao was just outside of it.

As soon as Chen Hao and Ye Yuqiao had entered this cell, Chen Hao had used a red thread soaked in dog's blood to draw a large circle inside it. By absorbing the Yang Energy from the Turtle Spirit Stone, his internal energy had surged, and he was able to transfer the Yin Yang Arts in his body onto the red thread circle, thus increasing the Yang Energy on the already dog's blood-soaked red thread, trapping the Seven Fairies inside.

"You've fallen into our trap!" Chen Hao glared fiercely at the Seven Fairies and declared, "We intentionally lured you here, away from the interference of the Yin Yang Master Association. Now let's see how you can escape from my grasp!"

After finishing his declaration, Chen Hao's left eye casted the Nether Light skill, revealing the true ghostly forms of the Seven Fairies in red.

Realizing what had occurred, the Seven Fairies understood they had fallen for a strategic deception. After exchanging glances, all seven ghosts leapt upwards, trying to escape through the prison's ceiling.

The moment their heads struck the ceiling, red talismans suddenly flashed above, repelling them back down; then, the seven ghosts leaped towards the ground, attempting to burrow out, only to be blocked again by red talismans.

"Hmph! Did you really think you could escape from the palm of my hand?" Chen Hao sneered smugly. After setting up the red thread circle, he had bitten open his left index finger and drawn two large talismans with his blood on the ceiling and floor.

No sooner had the sound of his voice faded than Chen Hao bellowed loudly. All at once, his blood ignited, and a faint purple light began to shimmer weakly in his left eye.

The Bi Luo Fairy looked up to the sky and let out a shrill, eerie laugh, raising her sharply-clawed hands and scoffed, "You think you can take us on all by yourself? Don't forget that you're also inside this circle; we'll kill you first!"

The Bi Luo Fairy leaped in front of Chen Hao, and with a swift stroke of her sharp nails, she left a startling bloody mark on Chen Hao's face; immediately afterward, the other six ghosts floated over, surrounding Chen Hao and ripping at his body.

Before the Seven Fairies could strangle him, the boiling blood inside Chen Hao burst forth. A dazzling and fierce purple flame erupted like a volcanic explosion from his left eye, filling the golden circle.

One of the ghosts, calling herself the White Spirit Fairy, quickly produced a bottle from her bosom, attempting to suck in the purple flames that filled the surroundings.

But before the bottle could absorb much, another burst of purple flames spewed from Chen Hao's left eye.

"Quick, stop the flames from shooting out of his left eye, or this bottle will never hold them all!" cried the White Spirit Fairy, already smelling her embroidered shoes burning with the intense flames.

"Sisters, let's tear him to pieces!" commanded the Bi Luo Fairy.

"Ah!" A heart-wrenching scream echoed as Chen Hao's limbs and head were torn off by the Seven Fairies. The floor of the cell was immediately drenched with the blood spilling from Chen Hao's body.

Having absorbed the Yang Energy from the Turtle Spirit Stone, Chen Hao's blood was filled with Yang Energy. Therefore, as it spilled onto the floor, it released Yang Energy. To the seven female ghosts, it was no longer ordinary human blood, but scorching magma!

"Ah!" the seven fierce ghosts cried out in agony as the Yang Energy steamed them. Unable to bear the pain, they tried to flee in all directions, but were blocked back by the circle flashing with golden light.

Suddenly, with a "bang," the bottle in the hands of the Bai Ling Fairy shattered, releasing all the purple flames that had been sucked into the bottle.

"Ah! What should we do, Sister Bi Luo?" asked the Bai Ling Fairy, her eyes already showing despair.

Bi Luo Fairy was stunned, and before she could recover, "boom," a burst of purple smoke and fierce flame spouted from the left eye of the severed head Chen Hao was holding, burning her upper body into a wisp of purple smoke!

Then, both the lower half of Bi Luo's body and Chen Hao's head fell into the blood pool on the ground, and another wisp of purple smoke rose—Bi Luo Fairy's Yin Soul was thoroughly incinerated by the Nether Fire!

"Sister!" Seeing Bi Luo Fairy burned away, the remaining six female ghosts immediately let out sorrowful and mournful cries.

From the left eye of Chen Hao's head, purple flames were still being ejected. As the purple flames burned more and more vigorously, the ghosts' voices gradually changed from sorrowful crying to high-pitched wails.

Standing in the corner and witnessing this process, Ye Yuqiao frowned, her heart aching for the dismembered Chen Hao on the ground and filled with worry. She thought to herself, "Being torn alive must be so painful, and you are so afraid of pain!"

About five minutes later, the wailing weakened, and wisps of purple smoke rose in the purple flames. As the purple smoke dispersed, the purple flames within the coil gradually extinguished, and the yellow-glowing red thread coil's light also faded.

Following that, Ye Yuqiao saw the pool of blood on the ground begin to flow back into Chen Hao's body, his torn limbs, and head rejoining with his torso.

Ye Yuqiao walked to Chen Hao's side, sat down with a thud, and laid his head in her lap. Soon, Chen Hao's breathing returned, and his face regained its vitality. The moment he opened his eyes, the dozens of red scratch marks on his face healed completely.

"Ye Yuqiao!" Chen Hao managed weakly, looking in great pain. "I feel so uncomfortable, and so cold!"

Ye Yuqiao immediately leaned down to kiss Chen Hao, intending to transfer some Yang Energy to him when she suddenly noticed a slight smile at the corner of Chen Hao's mouth.

"You!" Ye Yuqiao burst into anger, pushing Chen Hao out of her embrace. "You still jest at a time like this! Is it fun?"

Chen Hao turned away to look at Ye Yuqiao, then brought his face close to hers with a smile and asked, "Are you angry?"

Ye Yuqiao was expressionless and said nothing.

Chen Hao took Ye Yuqiao's hand and explained in a tone akin to coaxing a child: "I'm not joking, having one's limbs ripped off really hurts! I was just happy to see you worried about me."

Ye Yuqiao snorted coldly, then, with a darkened face, she suddenly raised her hands and pinched Chen Hao's now-recovering cheeks saying with a pout, "This will hurt you, see if you dare to misbehave again in the future!"

"Haha!" Chen Hao laughed at Ye Yuqiao's antics.

At this moment, in the interrogation room outside the prison, after hearing the heart-wrenching wails of the Seven Fairies, Xie Xiaofeng first smiled triumphantly, then excitedly said, "Chen Hao did it! Chen Hao has eliminated the Seven Fairies!"

Xie Da's face turned dark as he sank into deep thought. After a pause, he sighed somberly, "This is madness! Now that he has eliminated the Seven Fairies, King Li will certainly not spare him and will not spare us either!"

The King Li mentioned by Xie Da was a fierce ghost sent by King Ning to oversee the Yin Soul realm of Y City. Normally appearing in the guise of the celestial Pagoda Heavenly King Li, the Seven Fairies were his adopted daughters.

"What Pagoda Heavenly King Li? Isn't he just another fierce ghost?" Xie Xiaofeng retorted. His gaze firm as he looked into the pitch-black night outside the window, he continued, "As an Onmyoji, it is our duty to subdue demons and exorcise spirits. How can we let these ghosts run rampant!"

Xie Da shook his head repeatedly with a distressed face and lamented, "Xiao Feng, you are ultimately too young! Many things are not as simple as you think they are!"

..

In Y City's old district on Huai Gu Road, there stands a temple of Pagoda Heavenly King where King Li sent to control the Yin Souls of Y City is worshiped.

Deepest night, with flickering candlelight, the temple was empty.

Suddenly, a blast of cold wind blew, rustling the ancient locust tree outside the temple! Then the wind passed through the temple doors and arrived in front of the statue of Pagoda Heavenly King Li. A celestial soldier clad in silver armor appeared and immediately kneeled before the statue, reporting, "General Li, all seven princesses have been... have been burned to smoke by an Onmyoji."

The celestial soldier had just finished speaking when the Pagoda Heavenly King statue began to shake violently, followed by a deep and furious voice, "What! Which Onmyoji was so bold as to burn my seven adopted daughters!"

"It is a descendant of the Chen family, an Onmyoji lineage local to our city, named Chen Hao!"

"I will slay him myself to avenge my seven adopted daughters!"

The shaking of the Pagoda Heavenly King statue ceased, followed by a stream of purple qi flying out from within...
