Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

The girls passed by.

Wenren Yale looked forward to Bai Lian’s rebuttal.

However, Bai Lian walked past her without a word, as if the other party treated her as air.

[Mission completed. Mission reward: Spirit Grass, Gray Flame Grass]

“You…”

Ignored, she was actually ignored again!

Wenren Ya’s brain was trembling.

Anger.

Uncontrollable anger.

If it weren’t for the fact that there were still many disciples around, she would have rushed forward to challenge Bai Lian even if she knew that she would be beaten up.

Wenren Yale stared at Bai Lian’s departing figure expressionlessly.

Her black hair seemed to have been dyed with a layer of water-blue under the influence of spiritual power. It swayed gently, like a clear wave rising from the lake.

Waves rippled into Wenren Ya’s body one after another.

Veins popped out on her fair fist hidden under her long sleeve, and there was a faint crackling electric current.

A breeze blew.

That coldness made the girl’s thoughts gradually drift away…

In the mystic realm exploration of the sect two years ago, Wenren Yale first met Senior Sister Bai Lian, who was known as a “natural saint”, under the lead of head of Zhu Yan Peak.

In the snowstorm, Bai Lian raised her hand to wipe the snow falling from the corners of her eyes, leaving a deep impression on Wenren Yale.

Her breathing paused slightly, and her heart beat like a drum!

Even now, Wenren Yale would occasionally reminisce shyly in her dreams.

After that, she was chased by the stone people in the mystic realm. It was Senior Sister Bai Lian, who passed by, who used a spell to wrap around the stone people’s legs and saved her.

From then on, Wenren Yale aspired to become like Bai Lian.

But…

Why?

It bit its lower lip so hard that it looked like it was about to bleed.

Wenren Yale didn’t understand.

Why wasn’t Bai Lian even willing to look her in the eye?

Just because she was an “ordinary” mortal?

Wenren Yale was unhappy.

Even her mutated wind and lightning spiritual root couldn’t compare to the title of a natural saint, she still had the potential to become an immortal!

Crack.

At this moment, footsteps beside her woke Wenren Yale up.

Was it Senior Sister Bai Lian?

She turned around and the smile on her face disappeared before it could bloom. What greeted her eyes was a petite figure less than 1.5 meters tall.

In this season where autumn was deeper and frost filled the mountains, the purple-pigtailed girl who suddenly appeared was wearing a blue and purple chest-length dress that she had modified. She didn’t mind revealing her thin shoulders and slightly undulating chest, showing her stubbornness in the barrenness. The hem of the dress revealed her clean little feet, and she wore a pair of clean wooden clogs on her feet, looking very cool.

The most eye-catching thing was the Wolf Tail Grass in the girl’s mouth and the green bamboo stick on her shoulder. On the end of the stick was a plump gourd.

Wenren Yale knew that it was filled with strong alcohol.

She gritted her teeth and said, “Tong Yao!”

Tong Yao, Little Junior Sister of the Qing Yu Peak, 14 years old, late-stage Foundation Establishment.

In Bai Lian’s opinion, she also had another identity. She was the illegitimate daughter of the Nether King Hall Master, the future Nether King Hall Master, and the famous “Empress”.

“Hmph!”

Tong Yao stood on the stone steps and looked down at Wenren Yale in disdain.

That gaze made Wenren Yale furious.

Tong Yao said, “You think you can challenge Senior Sister Bai? You really don’t know the immensity of heaven and earth. The monkeys on Qing Yu Peak are all smarter than you! Hurry up and figure out your own position. Don’t court humiliation!”

Wenren Yale said angrily, “Tong Yao, don’t think that I don’t dare to teach you a lesson just because you’re younger than me.”

“Hmph, I’ve never seen such an ungrateful person!”

Tong Yao snorted and turned her head away. She couldn’t even be bothered to look at Wenren Yale.

A ball of flames burned between the two.

Under the pressure of the powerful aura, the disciples of the Immortal Du Sect who were watching the commotion turned pale.

Even Xiao Jinse, who didn’t cultivate, sensed the abnormality. She carefully pulled Bai Lian’s sleeve. “Fairy Bai Lian, they seem to be arguing.”

Bai Lian :”…”

She heard everything.

Damn!

She wanted to hit Tong Yao with a brick now.

Wenren Yale was already angry at her for no reason. She even planned to pretend that she didn’t know and let the matter slide.

Now, Tong Yao jumped out and mocked her, directly increasing Wenren Ya’s anger to max.

If she was Wenren Yale, she would also want to find an opportunity to kill herself!

What a scam!

Why would a dignified “future Lord of the Nether King Hall” come out to play the role of a villain’s lackey in a feel-good novel to increase the hatred of the villian?

Bai Lian was confused.

Could it be that Tong Yao wanted to harm her?

No way.

She couldn’t take this lying down.

“I want to find an opportunity to report Tong Yao’s alcoholism to the head of Qing Yu Peak!”

Xiao Jinse added, “Fairy Bai Lian, the two of them seem to have said that they want to fight in the arena. Is this really alright?”

Bai Lian opened her mouth slightly.

Before she could say anything, the mission came again.

[Mission 1: Go up and fan the flames, let Tong Yao kill Wenren Yale (Mission Reward: Three Thousand Incarnations)]

[Mission 2: Curse at them and call them a group of idiots. There’s no need to pay attention to them (Mission reward: High-grade Dharma artifact, Holy Maiden Gloves)]

[Mission 3: Leave indifferently and ignore them (Mission Reward: Hard Body Skill+1)]

If they were playing a game now, Bai Lian might have chosen Mission 1.

The reward was Three Thousand Incarnations.

She didn’t know if she would become the Great Sage, where a strand of her hair could become a white lotus.

But this was not a game. Bai Lian’s gaze lingered between Mission 2 and Mission 3 for a long time before finally choosing Mission 3.

She also wanted to curse, but she simply wasn’t strong enough.

“If I become stronger, I’ll ride on whoever I want! I’ll definitely torture you bastards to death!”

Bai Lian walked straight forward. Only when the mission reward was given did she whisper to Xiao Jinse, “Junior Sister, you have to remember that immortal sects aren’t harmonious. You have to be wary of others, including me.”

“Fairy Bai Lian ~”

Looking at that serious expression, Xiao Jinse’s heart warmed.

Her voice was soft as she lowered her head slightly, not daring to look at Bai Lian.

At this moment, she increasingly believed that Bai Lian wouldn’t harm her. In this huge Immortal Du Sect, she only felt a trace of warmth when she stayed beside Bai Lian.

The two of them disappeared from Qiong Ming Peak.

Wenren Yale and Tong Yao faced each other for a long time, but in the end, they still couldn’t reconcile. They fought from the top of the arena to the end.

That day, the news that Senior Sister Bai Lian had brought back an unfamiliar woman spread throughout the Immortal Du Sect.

Even those who were lingering at the foot of the mountain and wanted to join the Immortal Du Sect sensed something strange from the outer sect disciples of the Immortal Du Sect.

“Senior Sister Bai Lian.”

This name was deeply imprinted in their minds.

…

On Qiong Ming Peak.

Looking at the letter pressed on the stone table in front of the wooden house, Bai Lian scratched her head helplessly.

The words in the letter were easy to understand…

[The higher-ups have already decided that the mission of teaching Junior Sister will be assigned to you!]

Just like the game plot, Master An Lan had indeed disappeared.

No one would associate this lively An Lan with the Immortal Heavenly Venerate of the Immortal World, right?

But this was an indisputable fact…

They were the same person!

Bai Lian guessed that An Lan’s brain had been damaged in that battle that shook the world.

“I have a bad feeling about this, sigh…”

Life was not easy. Bai Lian sighed.

She was surrounded by bad things.

However, if that weren’t the case, she wouldn’t have had the chance to bully her junior sister. In some cases, she would even “harass” her.

Xiao Jinse whispered, “Fairy Bai Lian…”

Bai Lian shook her head. “Junior Sister, call me Senior Sister in the future.”

She also explained the current situation to Xiao Jinse.

“Oh.”

Xiao Jinse’s eyes darkened.

Did this mean that Master An didn’t take her seriously at all?

It was even possible that the matter of taking in a disciple was also decided by Fairy Bai Lian. She only brought him back to Qiong Ming Peak with a special identity because she sympathized with him.

Xiao Jinse was very touched.

She didn’t want to say it out loud. If she exposed it, wouldn’t it ruin Fairy Bai Lian’s good intentions?

She hoped that after her crippled spiritual root was repaired, she could show some cultivation talent.

“Thank you, Fairy Bai Lian…”

Bai Lian reached out and gently pressed Xiao Jinse’s head. “Call me Senior Sister.”

Xiao Jinse cowered. “Senior Sister.”

Bai Lian shook her head secretly.

It looked like it wasn’t easy to build a good relationship with Xiao Jinse. This system instigated her to commit crimes against Xiao Jinse every day. On the way back, because Xiao Jinse had rubbed her back twice, it issued two missions for her to do Xiao Jinse. It was really something.

“It’s late today. You should stay in this room first. I’ll think of a way to help you repair your spiritual root tomorrow.”

“Yes.” Xiao Jinse suddenly thought of something. “What about you, Senior Sister?”

There seemed to be only one room.

Bai Lian said, “I… I don’t need to sleep. I still have to cultivate at night.”

She planned to study the Gray Flame Grass she had just obtained. The level of this grass was unexpectedly high.

Xiao Jinse looked at Bai Lian with shining eyes.

As a natural saint, Senior Sister Bai was already so hardworking, so there was even less reason for her to be lazy!

In the middle of the night…

On the top of Qiong Ming Peak, Bai Lian took out the fiery red Gray Flame Grass.

It was time to become stronger!
