I woke up to find myself as the villain's older sister.

Chapter 346 (。＾▽＾)

"Oh, why all this solemnity?" Ling Xuzi said jokingly.

Xie Xiyan rolled his eyes. "Forget it, I can't reason with a bachelor like you who's been single for thousands of years."

Ling Xuzi: "..."

"You brat, you can't just resort to personal attacks like that."

"Do you even respect me as your master anymore?"

"They have absolutely no respect for their teachers."

"Sigh, you were so cute when you were little, so obedient and well-behaved," Ling Xuzi said with some emotion.

Xie Xiyan's face darkened. "You mean, you're going to sleep in my bed and leave me to sleep on the floor?"

Ling Xuzi felt a little guilty: "Haha... that's just to toughen you up and strengthen your willpower..."

"They consumed all the pills I used for cultivation, preventing me from breaking through for months."

Ling Xuzi: "Cultivation requires a steady and methodical approach; what need is there for elixirs..."

"When I was nine years old, they threw me into a wolf's den."

"Train your reaction time."

"Later, when I couldn't cultivate anymore, I slept all day long!"

Ling Xuzi coughed lightly, "You were ambushed and drugged back then, so you couldn't cultivate anymore. It will take quite a while for the antidote to come out. If I don't rest, what am I supposed to do?"

"You're just a soul, why are you resting? You didn't expend a single bit of soul power the whole time."

Ling Xuzi chuckled: "Isn't this to build up our strength and prepare to take you away from the Xie family? Look, you're still perfectly fine now."

Xie Xiyan: "..."

Ling Xuzi chuckled: "Hehe, Master is doing this all for your own good~"

Xie Xiyan: "Shut up, you unreliable old man."

"Oh dear~ How could you say that to your teacher? It hurts me so much~"

……

Seeing that Xie Xiyan didn't ask any further questions, Yun Qingyi raised an eyebrow and breathed a slight sigh of relief. Fortunately, he didn't ask any more questions, otherwise she would have felt quite guilty about keeping it from him.

After all, he had indeed received a lot of benefits from the person in front of him, but he was not really prepared to fully tell his own story.

After leaving the Deep Sea Illusion, the illusion collapsed quietly and disappeared into the Thousand-Foot Waterfall because it no longer had the power of the Thousand Illusion Mirror components.

Yun Qingyi and Xie Xiyan looked back and, with a few leaps, returned to the ancient secret realm's jungle.

During their journey, they passed deep into the jungle and saw an underground palace. Out of curiosity, they went inside for a look, but found nothing there.

Yun Qingyi felt a sense of familiarity. After thinking for a moment and looking at the altar, she suddenly realized that this was... the place that had summoned her from the special purgatory before.

At that time, she was affected by the special punishment and could be said to have lost her mind. She only remembered justice and killing. Because the moment she sensed that there was evil in this place, she automatically triggered a passive ability and only wanted to eradicate this evil energy.

I regained consciousness later, but my memory was somewhat hazy.

Yun Qingyi looked around. The place was now empty. There seemed to have been murals on the walls, but now they looked like they had been erased and were not very clear.

After looking around and not finding anything of interest, Xie Xiyan and I left.

The two concealed themselves among the trees as they sped along, discovering that the cultivators who had entered the ancient secret realm seemed to be overly conservative.

The more dangerous places are almost deserted; instead, most people go to safer areas to collect herbs and minerals.

"Something strange."

"Did Qingyi notice too?" Xie Xiyan turned to look at her.

"They are all quite fearful."

“Indeed.” Xie Xiyan nodded. “Although some sect disciples choose to be more conservative, it’s a bit strange that almost everyone does the same.”

As they spoke, the two arrived at a stronghold, where shouts of buying and selling filled the air. The loudest voice came from Fatty San, who was holding a map.

"Don't miss out! Maps are available for 200,000 high-grade spirit stones each! Huge discount!"
