"But it has already escaped its bonds, why would it still seek you out?" Shen Ye asked.
"Lilias and I were the double safe-guards of the Five Desires Cage world. If one of us died, it would indicate a problem with the prison, and the other would immediately gain all the former's strength, releasing an even more powerful sealing prison force."
Diliya spoke rapidly:
"I am the only cage that can suppress it."
"It must find me and kill me before it can be at ease."
Shen Ye said, "Then I will think of a way myself, we have to set you free eventually—after all, it's not a solution to keep you inside my Dharma Aspect all the time."
He looked at the handcuffs in Diliya's hands.
The handcuffs were already full of cracks.
Perhaps a sharp weapon would be able to cut them off.
"Don't go looking for it on purpose, be careful not to arouse its suspicion—in any case, let's lay low for a while," Diliya said.
"Is the Nine Aspects really that strong?" Shen Ye couldn't help asking.
