When Shi Yao was undergoing the Nascent Soul Tribulation, she fell into a mental demon tribulation, in which she saw her future self working herself to the bone for her chosen disciple, risking her life for her sect, and ultimately losing her soul for the entire Lingzhou cultivation world—enraging Shi Yao so much that she drew her sword.

After becoming a Nascent Soul True Monarch, the sect tried its best to persuade Shi Yao to take on disciples—working herself to the bone?

Shi Yao: "I suddenly realized something earlier, and from now on I will cultivate the Path of Ruthlessness and never take on any disciples in this life."

When the sect leader asked Shi Yao to lead the sect disciples to a secret realm for training—a life-or-death struggle?

Shi Yao: "I heard that monsters have been causing trouble in the Chaos Sea recently. I have petitioned the Supreme Elder and will go to the Chaos Sea to take charge of the situation immediately."

The seal on the Heavenly God Mountain in Lingzhou has broken, and the demons have all come out. All the cultivators in Lingzhou are hoping that Shi Yao can take action to suppress the demons and make them disappear.

Shi Yao: "...So it's like I'm sacrificing myself for the happiness of the entire Lingzhou, right?"
