“Senior Sister, are you angry?” Lu Zhanxing panicked when he heard her cold tone.

He wanted to explain.

But thinking back to those years, he did treat Xue Qingyi as a substitute for the senior sister. He always fantasized about Xue Qingyi as the senior sister in order to commemorate her... Lu Zhanxing suddenly felt guilty again.

"angry?"

Xue Qingyi found it quite ridiculous for a moment.

Her last sentence was not said as a senior sister, but for herself!

It’s just that Lu Zhanxing didn’t hear anything unusual.

Once upon a time, she thought that being a stand-in for such a brilliant and talented senior sister was something to be proud of.

But after she was reborn, she gradually understood that no matter how talented her senior sister was, no matter how ordinary she was, she was still a precious and irreplaceable existence in this world!

She shouldn't and can't ignore her own existence just because of the excellence of her senior sister.

"I didn't know these things before, but now I know them. You guys are just a bunch of strangers to me, so why should I be angry? But, have you ever thought about whether it is fair to treat another person as my substitute?"

At this time, Xue Qingyi spoke again in a cold voice.

"She's not important!"

When Lu Zhanxing heard that this was what she cared about, he breathed a sigh of relief, but then he spoke with extreme contempt.

"Not important? Junior Brother Xing, I'm only asking you."

Xue Qingyi looked at him and said word by word, "You treated her as a substitute and were only hypocritical to her. How about her towards you? Have you ever thought that maybe she really treated you as her own brother and gave you her whole heart?"

When these words came out, Lu Zhanxing was stunned.

"Junior Brother Xing, if she treated you wholeheartedly in the past, but in the end she found out that you didn't have any sincerity towards her, what would you do if it were you?"

Xue Qingyi's words were like a heavy hammer, hitting Lu Zhanxing hard on the forehead!

What will happen to him?

Only then did he realize that he had never thought about this question!

"If it were you, if anyone dared to treat you like this, you would definitely want to tear that person into pieces!" Xue Qingyi didn't wait for him to figure it out and gave an affirmative answer directly.

When Lu Zhanxing heard this, he felt as if he had been hit all over.

"But, but she colluded with the evil cultivators to poison Junior Sister. She is such a vicious, cruel, despicable and cunning person, why should I care whether she is sincere or not?"

He was anxious to defend himself.

However, the confusion in his eyes could not be concealed.

"Junior Brother Axing, your view of people and things is too one-sided. If a person treats you sincerely, even if she is not a good person, as long as she has never harmed you or betrayed you, you have no reason to let her down. After all, in this cruel world of cultivation, the most rare thing is a person's sincerity." Xue Qingyi said in a light tone.

It must be said that deliberately saying these things to Lu Zhanxing with the identity and tone of the eldest sister was extremely effective.

He had never thought about the problem before, but now he quickly figured it out under her deliberate guidance.

Xue Qingyi once treated him sincerely...

Lu Zhanxing almost immediately remembered that when he was a child, Xue Qingyi's tiny hand had grabbed a corner of his clothes, and she looked up at him and said to him seriously:

"Although according to the seniority of the sect, you have to call me Second Senior Sister, but in my heart, you are like my brother, and you are a very important person to Qingyi."

But at that time, when he looked at this little face that was somewhat similar to the Senior Sister, the only person he could think of was the Senior Sister.

So, I never took her words to heart.

However, when he thought about this again and what the senior sister had said to him, a strong feeling of guilt appeared in his eyes almost visibly.

"Big Sister, did I do something wrong? Then what should I do in the future? I heard that she has been missing for a long time. She has no cultivation. Could it be that she has already..."

Lu Zhanxing's tone was a little flustered, and also a little regretful.

After all, the reason why Xue Qingyi was hurt was because he acted on impulse.

At that time, he thought she had cheated on him.

Now that he had seen the senior sister in person, he knew that what she said was true.

But there was a hint of confusion in Lu Zhanxing's eyes.

Since the eldest senior sister was really still alive, why did Xue Qingyi deliberately lie to him in the Demon Abyss at that time, saying that the eldest senior sister was still alive?

Could it be that she was just speaking in anger?

So he took it seriously?

No matter how you look at it, it seems that he did do something wrong between him and Xue Qingyi.

At this moment, when Xue Qingyi saw Lu Zhanxing like this, she knew that her goal for today had been achieved.

"It's hard to say, but if she is lucky enough to return to the sect alive in the future, you should be more considerate of her. Just think of it as atonement for my sins."

"There's nothing wrong with Senior Sister..."

"If it wasn't for me, how could she have suffered all this? Junior Brother Xing, please consider this as a plea from Senior Sister, okay?"

How could Lu Zhanxing refuse after hearing what she said?

He nodded immediately and agreed.

As the two were talking, they had already crossed the volcano and arrived at a paradise in the back, where they discovered the treasure.

Outside this treasure trove, there is a fire unicorn, a fourth-level monster, guarding it.

"Big sister, you take a rest aside. I am enough to handle this monster by myself." Lu Zhanxing said attentively.

"Okay, then I'll see how your cultivation is now. If anything unexpected happens, I will take action." Xue Qingyi curled her lips.

She naturally enjoyed the peace and quiet.

When Lu Zhanxing heard this, he became anxious to show off and rushed towards the Fire Kirin with his sword in hand.

In an instant, the brilliant light of lightning and sparks covered the sky.

Xue Qingyi sat there, supporting her chin with one hand, lazily watching Lu Zhanxing and Huo Qilin fighting fiercely.

Although Lu Zhanxing's cultivation had regressed, he was still in the late Jindan stage.

This Fire Qilin did not show the same mutation as the previous pink-faced black electric python and was quickly defeated by Lu Zhanxing.

"Big sister, this Fire Qilin has all the good stuff on it, you should take them." Soon, Lu Zhanxing disassembled all the valuable and useful parts of the Fire Qilin and came to Xue Qingyi as if he was presenting treasures.

"Junior Brother Axing, thank you for your hard work. I won't be polite then." Xue Qingyi took a look at his dusty appearance, curled the corners of her lips, and then accepted all the things.

"Big sister, let's go take a look at the paradise inside!"

Lu Zhanxing suggested again.

Xue Qingyi nodded.

Afterwards, the two went to the cave guarded by the Fire Qilin.

There is nothing special in this cave, only some spiritual herbs and minerals.

Both were a little disappointed.

However, when leaving, Xue Qingyi suddenly sensed something.

She raised her hand and broke a stone wall with flame patterns.

Suddenly, the stone wall collapsed.
