Chapter 2443

Yan Aohan noticed the situation and changed the subject. "Cui Wan, since you have Mantou, get along well with her. But do not neglect your studies because of this." He glanced at Zhu Yanyi.

Zhu Yanyi understood. She handed three or four books to Cui Wan. "I must leave the Azure Sovereign Sect for a few years. During this time, these four books contain medical knowledge and experience. If you do not understand anything, ask Hall Master Ouyang. For sword cultivation, ask your eldest senior uncle. She will teach you how to be a true sword cultivator."

Zhu Yanyi paused, then continued. "Remember one thing: you cultivate the sword only for self-protection. Do not hurt others unless absolutely necessary. You are a healer. Your goal is to save lives."

She softened her tone. "However, if someone bullies you, do not back down. My disciples do not yield. Remember, kindness invites bullying. As long as you are right, do not fear trouble. Remember, your master, grandmaster, and senior uncles are behind you."

Zhu Yanyi gave her final instructions.

"Yes, Master. I remember." Cui Wan nodded seriously, showing she had taken the lesson to heart.

Zhu Yanyi rubbed Cui Wan’s head. "I will leave in ten days. During this time, I will teach you some pharmaceutical knowledge. When I am gone, read and study. Ask Hall Master Ouyang if you are confused. If you still do not understand, save the questions for when I return. Do you understand?"

"I understand. Master, I will go now and return tomorrow." Cui Wan said seriously.

Zhu Yanyi smiled lightly. "Go."

Few people visited the Suiyuan Pharmacy now. Each disciple had their own dormitory. Even though Cui Wan was now a direct disciple, her living arrangements did not change. She still lived with inner sect disciples.

This was not due to a lack of hierarchy. Zhu Yanyi wanted to cultivate their equal interests.

Interpersonal relationships were a form of knowledge. The relationship between doctor and patient was especially important. Since Zhu Yanyi had accepted Cui Wan as a direct disciple, she naturally wanted to teach her well. Such social skills could not be taught in lectures; they required daily interaction.

Fortunately, these children had suffered together. No one looked down on others because of status. Instead, the direct disciples led by example, boosting everyone’s enthusiasm for learning.

Over the next ten days, Zhu Yanyi packed as much knowledge as possible into Cui Wan’s mind, letting her digest it slowly. After ten days, Yan Aohan took Zhu Yanyi away.

Although they were going to the Demon Realm, Yan Aohan did not break through space directly. He planned to return to the Underworld first, then enter the Demon Realm through a special transmission channel there.

Only Yan Aohan could open this channel. It was hard for others to find.

Yan Aohan and Zhu Yanyi returned to the Underworld to handle some matters.

During this period, the Underworld had become very orderly. As staff were fully assigned, the order became clearer. Problems that used to appear gradually disappeared.

After wandering around the Underworld and handling accumulated daily tasks, Yan Aohan and Zhu Yanyi went to the Demon Realm.

Demon Realm.

As soon as Zhu Yanyi entered, she felt a strange sensation.

It was not unpleasant, but Zhu Yanyi felt she could visit for fun, but not live here long-term.

"The air in the Demon Realm feels uncomfortable. I think if I suffer from acclimatization issues, it will be here," Zhu Yanyi said with a smile to Yan Aohan.

Yan Aohan chuckled. He took out a crystal, threaded it with a red string, and hung it on Zhu Yanyi. She instantly felt much clearer. "What is this?"

"The Demon Realm is full of demon energy. As a human, you naturally do not adapt to this environment. This is a top-grade Immortal Jade Crystal. Its main function is to convert any demon or evil energy into spiritual energy that you can absorb and use," Yan Aohan explained.

Zhu Yanyi realized the truth. "I see. But I should not have been so sensitive before. My current sensitivity is likely due to my pregnancy."

Yan Aohan nodded. "Let’s walk around nearby to adapt to the living environment here."

Life in the Demon Realm differed greatly from the human world. It was mostly about snatching. If they liked something, they took it by force. Unless you had a strong backer, you could not survive without support.

"I thought only the Devil Realm had such snatching scenes," Zhu Yanyi said, watching the chaos below from the air. It reminded her of the opening of a movie from her past life, Green Snake. You snatch mine, I snatch yours. There was no right or wrong, only constant snatching.

Yan Aohan shook his head slightly and explained. "The Devil Realm崇尚 (advocates) martial strength, but they never snatch innocently. People in the Devil Realm respect the strong. They worship power. For them, it is better to cultivate hard to become stronger than to cause trouble."

Yan Aohan pointed down. "But in the Demon Realm, look. This is not about respecting the strong. It is instinctive snatching."

Because it was instinct, there were no other thoughts.

After listening to Yan Aohan, Zhu Yanyi pondered briefly, then nodded. "Indeed. The Demon Realm has no concept of right or wrong. Is it because snatching here requires no morality? Whatever you snatch is yours."

Yan Aohan shook his head. "To be honest, I do not know. I came to the Demon Realm hundreds of years ago. Back then, it was not so morally confused. I do not know what caused this current situation."

Zhu Yanyi raised her eyebrows slightly. She looked around and accidentally saw a person in the demon crowd. "Aohan, look at that person."

Yan Aohan followed Zhu Yanyi’s finger. It was a monk. The monk sat cross-legged on a high platform with his eyes closed. The chaos below seemed to affect him not at all.
