Since Ye Yuqiao only had a Yang Spirit, and Chen Hao's Nether Eye's Fire could only harm Yin Souls, he was able to spray Nether Fire at Ye Yuqiao, who had been possessed by a Shadow Demon. However, earlier on Starlight Street, when faced with Xie Xiaofeng, who had been entangled by a Shadow Demon, he couldn't use the Nether Eye's Fire against the Shadow Demon.

Seeing the purple flames spout from Chen Hao's left eye, the Shadow Demon clinging to Ye Yuqiao immediately jumped out of her body.

Through the Nether Eye, Chen Hao saw a gray shadow climb up the wall above the head of the bed. He immediately looked up, and the flames gushing from his left eye chased after the gray shadow like a dragon emerging from its cave.

It wasn't until the gray shadow escaped out the window along the wall that Chen Hao's left eye stopped emitting flames. He lowered his head and saw that Ye Yuqiao had fainted again on the bed, her still face faintly tinged with pain. Suddenly, Chen Hao's heart ached, he bent down and slowly leaned forward to leave a gentle kiss on Ye Yuqiao's face.

The moment his lips touched Ye Yuqiao's cold cheek, a voice that seemed to be Ye Yuqiao's suddenly came from his left eye, saying, "Chen Hao, give me some Yang Energy!"

Chen Hao shuddered, froze for a second, and then his lips landed on Ye Yuqiao's cheek once more. This time, Ye Yuqiao's voice coming through his left eye was much clearer, she indeed wanted Chen Hao to pass her some Yang Energy.

Immediately, Chen Hao tightly grasped Ye Yuqiao's hands and then infused Yang Energy into her body.

Three minutes later, Ye Yuqiao slowly opened her eyes, a dim light flickering in them. She coughed softly twice, wanting Chen Hao to know she had awakened and he didn't need to keep transferring Yang Energy.

Chen Hao immediately let go and asked, "Are you alright?"

At this moment, Ye Yuqiao's complexion was slightly flushed, and she looked much healthier than before, saying, "Much better now!"

"That's good!" Chen Hao smiled with relief, but his expression suddenly darkened, his eyes brimming with tears.

Ye Yuqiao knitted her brows with concern and asked, "What's wrong?"

Chen Hao raised his hands to grasp Ye Yuqiao's that were pinching his face, his expression filled with dejection, "I've been thinking the whole time you were in surgery, what would I do if one day you were suddenly gone? Ye Yuqiao, you're really important to me now."

Hearing Chen Hao say this, Ye Yuqiao instantly felt a pang in her heart and couldn't hold back her tears. After a pause, she sobbed, "If I'm gone one day, you obviously still have to live well. Eat when you should eat, sleep when you should sleep, and work when you should work."

"No!" Chen Hao replied vehemently, shaking his head decisively, "If you're gone one day, I'll be utterly dejected, until the day you return."

"Why are you so annoying!" Ye Yuqiao yelled, and then she broke into even more intense crying. In a moment, the rosiness that had climbed her face had faded, her complexion reverting to the pallor from before. "What if I can't come back, like today, what if I was stabbed to death on purpose?"

"Don't worry," Chen Hao's gaze became incredibly firm, "I will make sure such a thing never happens again."

At this time, in the Yin Yang Master Association, Ren Deshan was calling a meeting of all the Onmyoji to discuss how to deal with the art of the Shadow Demon. The Shadow Demon's name included the word 'demon,' but it was entirely different from the demons spoken of by the Onmyoji.

Legend has it that the Shadow Demon's mother was a commoner woman surnamed Ye living in the Netherworld. One day, the Second Generation Nether King, who was then the Crown Prince, passed by the Ye residence and found the woman named Ye to be quite attractive, and so he favored her that night. Not long after, the woman named Ye became pregnant.

When the wife of the Second Generation Nether King, Ruolan, found out about this, she had someone cast a curse on the woman named Ye. The child that was later born only had a shadow and no body, which is the Shadow Demon we know today.

Since the Shadow Demon had only a Nether Soul and no Yin Soul, the members of the Yin Yang Master Association couldn't come up with a way to deal with it after much discussion.

Just as everyone was at their wits' end, Xie Xiaofeng suddenly stood up and said, "The purple flames from Chen Hao's left eye might be able to hurt the Shadow Demon."

"That's right!" Ren Deshan exclaimed with joy, "Chairman Chen should be at the hospital now."

"Then we need to figure out a way to trap the Shadow Demon first, and then have Chen Hao set fire to it and burn it to death!"

"The flames he breathes can't hurt the Shadow Demon!" The leader of the spiritual group, Liu Yongping, suddenly slapped the table and shouted loudly, looking somewhat bizarre.

Xie Xiaofeng's face darkened as he asked, "How do you know the fire can't hurt the Shadow Demon?"

"Because I just tried it myself!" Liu Yongping suddenly sneered, "I just came back from the hospital, and the flames on that boy's left eye couldn't harm me at all."

"Ah!" Everyone present was startled, not expecting the Shadow Demon to actually come to the Yin Yang Master Association!

Ren Deshan stood up abruptly and angrily asked, "Shadow Demon, Y City has no grudges against you, why do you do this?"

The Liu Yongping controlled by the Shadow Demon pointed at Xie Xiaofeng and sneered coldly, "You ask this kid and your chairman what they did a few days ago."

All eyes turned to Xie Xiaofeng.

Xie Xiaofeng remained calm and chuckled lightly, "As an Onmyoji, of course, all I do is exorcise ghosts and ward off evil."

"Hmph!" Liu Yongping snorted angrily, "Since you have no remorse, don't blame me for being impolite. You all listen here, every single one of your family members will die tonight, and they'll all be killed by your own hands! I want every single one of you to pay the price for what this whelp has done."

"Xie Xiaofeng," all of the Onmyoji were now anxiously surrounding Xie Xiaofeng, shouting at him, "What exactly did you and Chen Hao do a few days ago?"

Xie Xiaofeng glared at the people around him and said righteously, "I told you, all we did was to drive away ghosts and repel evil, and our conscience is clear!"

"So much for your clear conscience!" Liu Yongping said angrily. Then, Xie Xiaofeng saw a gray shadow leap out of Liu Yongping's body, moving along the conference table and approaching him.

Xie Xiaofeng's eyes shone with a sharp light; he was just about to tell the Onmyoji around him to get away, but he was grabbed by the neck by the Onmyoji who had crowded around him, and his hands and body were restrained.

"Ugh!" Xie Xiaofeng's face turned red as he struggled to breathe. "Shadow Demon, I dare you... to make a bet... with me..."

Immediately, the hands clutching Xie Xiaofeng's neck loosened, and the Onmyoji standing in front of him asked, "What bet?"

"I bet that tonight none of our family members here will be harmed by them."

"And if you lose? What then?" The Onmyoji standing behind Xie Xiaofeng asked.

"Hmph!" Xie Xiaofeng scoffed with a scornful laugh, "I won't lose. But even if I do, you can do whatever you want, since you hold the upper hand anyway."

After a long while, the Shadow Demon did not speak.

Xie Xiaofeng laughed loudly, "Ha ha!" He had grasped the psychology of the Shadow Demon and then said, "Being ugly is no problem as long as you're confident. Shadow Demon, your lack of response for so long, does it mean you don't have confidence you can win against me?"

"Who says?" The Onmyoji standing on Xie Xiaofeng's left side spoke again, his left hand clamping down on Xie Xiaofeng's neck once more, he said fiercely, "Then I accept your bet!"

"Good," Xie Xiaofeng rolled his eyes, his voice becoming hoarse. "Then the bet starts in twenty minutes, ending at four o'clock in the morning!"
