This is just stupid.
He wants to escape, but he has no escape plan, nowhere to escape to, and no reason to escape, never mind that escaping the demonic cult wife or not is impossible for him. It's absolutely delusional and pointless to boot.
He's now at risk of dying because he has concealed his constitution, but it's more important to hide that than... his delusion of escape? How is he supposed to escape if he's dead? He has to reveal the truth either way since he needs to cast off his yang obstruction or he'll die young. If he thinks dying is an escape, nothing is stopping him from killing himself.
No matter how you look at it, whatever goal he has, whatever he does or does not plan to do, the best option is to be honest about his yang obstruction unless he wants to die, in which case, it'd be faster to just take a hairpin to the throat.
