I spread my hands. "There's nothing I can do about it. It's not like I'm a Heart Demon!"

The Heart Demon Li Po roared, "Speak! What do you want?"

I said in a deep voice, "You have to kill those people from the Xu family first. You can't let them willingly die on the bridge."

"What Xiao Luo said was clearly meant to lure people to their deaths. And they have to die willingly."

"If the Immortal Bridge is just a barrier for the Tiewa Temple, they wouldn't need to go to such lengths. The trap on the bridge that turns people's flesh and blood into mud would be enough."

"The so-called Immortal Guidance couldn't possibly be the ghosts left behind by the righteous sorcerers who attacked the Tiewa Temple back then, guarding Wu Chen's tomb. Among the tricks commonly used by righteous people, there's no such thing as directly using evil means."

"The only explanation is that the person in Wu Chen's tomb wants to come out."

"If I'm not mistaken, the person in Wu Chen's tomb needs a sacrifice of living people to come out. Moreover, the people being sacrificed can't have any hatred."

"I've said this much, you understand, right?"

Heart Demon Li Po gritted his teeth and said, "You're ruthless!" He then withdrew from my sea of consciousness.

The Heart Demon left, but I saw him quietly appear behind a Xu family disciple, and even heard him speaking to the person: "What immortals are there on this Immortal Bridge? There are only vengeful ghosts!"

"Five million to buy your life, that's a lot of money, right? How long do you think your family can spend five million?"

"When someone who's never seen so much money suddenly gets a fortune, what will they think? Living in a villa, driving a luxury car, wearing a famous watch, traveling the world? Five million really isn't enough for them to squander for long."

"When the money is gone, will Xu Yu Long still care about them? Going from frugality to extravagance and then back to frugality, aren't you afraid that your family will be ruined by Xu Yu Long?"

I could hear Heart Demon Li Po speaking, and I was sure that the target wasn't hearing his voice. The person would only think of the Heart Demon's words as their own thoughts.

That's what's most terrifying about Heart Demons. They don't act, but they can make people self-destruct.

As expected, the Xu family disciple walking in front of Heart Demon Li Po couldn't help but tremble. But the Heart Demon was still coaxing him, "Take a close look at who's stepping forward."

"Which one of them is Xu Yu Long's direct descendant? The people closely related to Xu Yu Long are all standing below!"

"What does this mean?"

"At least it means that they don't care about this five million, right?"

"They're both Xu family disciples, both Xu family elites. Why can they accumulate so much wealth, but you have to sell your life for a few million?"

"What Xu Yu Long said scared you, right? Why didn't it scare them?"

"Because they know that Xu Yu Long won't do anything to their families. Only fools like you are stepping forward!"

After a sudden pause, Heart Demon Li Po increased his tone and said, word by word, "Don't you hate it?"

"I hate it!"

The Xu family disciple first said it softly, then suddenly roared, "I hate it!"

"Xu Yu Long, why should I sell my life for you?"

"Your own direct descendants aren't moving, why should I go to my death? I'm asking you, why?"

The Xu family disciples who had walked onto the Immortal Bridge all stopped, looking at their companion in confusion. The man was standing on the bridge, shouting the words that Heart Demon Li Po had just said, at the top of his lungs.

The Heart Demon began to shuttle back and forth among those people, easily stirring up their resentment.

The Xu family disciples standing under the bridge all panicked and looked at Xu Yu Long, who was standing there without saying a word.

Xu Yu Long's Heart Demon also moved. He must have gone up the bridge to find Li Po to be his opponent.

I gently touched Lin Zhao, "Protect me!"

"You..." Lin Zhao had just said one word when I calmed my mind and rushed straight towards Xu An An.

When Xu Yu Long's Heart Demon was still there, going over like this would have been the same as courting death. Now was the perfect time for me to find Xu An An.

Xu An An's heart was already in chaos, but Xu An An's Heart Demon was standing in the distance, looking at me and saying, "You're here to help me again?"

I couldn't help but frown, "She can still resist you?"

I could see that Heart Demon Xu An An's form was very faint, and at first glance, it gave off a feeling that it would be blown away by the wind.

This showed that Xu An An's main body was still struggling and was extremely resistant to the Heart Demon.

I said, "Can you let Xu An An see me? It would be best if she could come over."

"No problem!" The Heart Demon disappeared from my sight in an instant, and Xu An An suddenly ran in my direction. Several Xu family disciples wanted to stop her, but Xu An An sternly stopped them, "If any of you dare to come over, I'll kill you! Get out of here!"

After Xu An An ran into the woods, I also walked out of the shadows.

When she saw me, she immediately rushed up and grabbed me, "Li Po, something happened to my brother, please go and save him. I'm begging you!"

I said calmly, "Are you sure something happened to Xu Yu Long, or is he lying to you?"

Xu An An said sternly, "Li Po, what time is it, and you're still stirring up trouble? I really don't know what your purpose is in sowing discord between us siblings?"
