Having made such a decision, the Saintess wanted to spend a good time with Li Yifei in the following days, to truly let loose. However, their identities would easily give them away if they acted too wildly, so they came up with this solution.
Li Yifei could also feel the Saintess's mindset. As a man, when faced with such a situation, he couldn't shrink back, nor did he have the leeway to do so. Even if he could convince the Saintess to not sever this inner demon of his, it would certainly leave a darkest seed in Li Yifei's heart, making it difficult for him to advance any further.
In the practice of Cultivating Qi, the most crucial part is actually the cultivation of the heart. Once you harbor demons in your heart, it becomes very difficult to cultivate your True Qi. This was something Murong Yuanqing had always stressed to Li Yifei.
