Chapter 4 The White Moonlight Kills the Male and Female Protagonists (4)

"Senior sister, please get well soon! I don't want to spend another day cultivating with them! Were you bullied like this when you were with them before? It's okay, my cultivation has improved now, I'll teach them a lesson for you!"

Jin Shu appeared calm on the surface, but her heart was as cold as ice.

It was one thing for the other men to hurt and betray her, but it was Xin Yi's betrayal that truly made her feel an unprecedented despair.

Xin Yi was a child she picked up from the demon race, and she raised him single-handedly.

Jin Shu had long regarded him as her closest relative.

And how did her relative treat her in the end?

Because she had said that she would have nothing to do with Meng Ling from now on, Xin Yi severed all ties with her, forcing her to accept Meng Ling and pretend that nothing had happened.

Jin Shu was heartbroken, but she still refused to believe that the child she had raised would forget all the kindness she had shown him in the past.

Until he turned the sword on himself.

Because she asked the Queen Mother of the West for her spiritual herbs, Meng Ling was punished by the Queen Mother of the West with heavenly lightning. In a fit of rage, Xin Yi used the swordsmanship that Jin Shu had personally taught him to stab Jin Shu's arm through.

The pain in my heart is more intense than the physical pain.

She recalled the same scene in her dream, and her heart was filled with endless bitterness and hatred.

She gritted her teeth and calmed herself down, her face remaining completely expressionless.

After going through that life-or-death experience, the attitude of these men in front of her was the least of her concerns.

No matter what they do, Jin Shu doesn't care.

Now all she wants is to find the immortal herb as soon as possible, repair her spiritual veins, and restore her cultivation level.

As for the rest, none of it concerns her.

In the future, whether these people live or die, Jin Shu will not be moved in the slightest.

"Senior sister, we plan to go down the mountain together tomorrow to search for spiritual herbs. Why don't you come with us?"

Lianxin took the initiative to invite her.

He said the same thing in his dream.

Jin Shu went along with them, but watched the two fellow disciples bickering and laughing all the way.

His mind wasn't on finding the spiritual herb at all.

Jin Shu didn't rely on them, but it was undeniable that her junior sister Meng Ling had extraordinary luck. Wherever she was, there would definitely be treasures, and the probability of finding spiritual herbs would greatly increase.

So this time, Jin Shu nodded again.

Having experienced it in her dream, she knew the location of the secret realm filled with spiritual herbs.

Since they kept saying they wanted to help, Jin Shu certainly couldn't let their good intentions go to waste.

The ferocious beasts guarding the secret realm are extremely difficult to deal with; these three fellow disciples should be able to handle them.

After everyone in the room had left, Jin Shu spent an hour going through everything that had happened in her dream.

She had only been awake for a short time and was too weak to bear so much anxiety and worry. So Jin Shu lay down again, looking at the curtains above her head, with only one thought in her mind.

That is cultivation.

The reason she caused the final tragedy in the dream was entirely because she lacked cultivation and ability.

Anyone can step on her.

Because she clearly understood this, when she saw the culprit who had driven her to her death, the first thought that flashed through Jin Shu's mind was not hatred, but a deep sense of lingering fear.

She has one more chance.

As for why all this happened, she couldn't figure it out, and she didn't have time to think about it too much.

Finally, Jin Shu fell asleep.

For some reason, the night seemed exceptionally long. Several times she woke up to find the sky still dark outside.

Kunlun Mountain also has the sun, moon, and stars. Because it is a cultivation world rich in spiritual energy, one day here is equivalent to seven days in the mortal world.

Perhaps it was because she was thinking too much that the night seemed so long. Jin Shu got up and found the cultivation manuals she had collected before, flipping through them page by page.

Even if you can't cultivate, it's still good to accumulate more knowledge in your mind on a regular basis.

After a long while, it finally got light outside.

Senior Brother Jingye had been waiting outside the door for a long time. When he saw Jin Shu come out, he quickly went to greet her.

"My junior sisters and the others are already waiting for us at the foot of the mountain. Come, ride my flying roc down the mountain."

Jingye's mount was a white eagle named Feipeng.

Jin Shu moved away from him without making a sound, and said calmly.

"I have Feiyun, so I won't trouble you."

After saying that, Jin Shu blew a long whistle with one hand. The next second, a red-crowned white crane flew down from the clouds and stood up. After seeing Jin Shu, it let out a loud cry and landed next to her, obediently squatting down.

Jin Shu stepped onto Fei Yun's back and patted its feathers.

"Feiyun, descend the mountain."

The usually mischievous Feiyun seemed to sense its master's slightly suppressed emotions, and became much calmer, flying steadily down to the foot of the mountain.

Lianxin, Xinyi, and Mengling were already waiting there.

"Senior Sister! Look, it's Senior Sister's Flying Cloud!"

Lianxin greeted Jinshu on Feiyun's back warmly.

When Jin Shu jumped off Fei Yun's back, her foot landed on a protruding rock. Her body, devoid of spiritual power, couldn't help but fall to the side. Xin Yi quickly went to support her.

"It seems that Senior Sister's health has not fully recovered yet. Why don't you ride my mount down to the mortal realm?"

These rare and precious materials usually grow in sacred mountains and lands on earth, and this time the group's destination is Elephant Head Mountain on earth. The fastest way to get to Elephant Head Mountain is by riding a mount.

Xin Yi's mount is a winged horse that can carry two people.

Lianxin, standing to the side, echoed.

"You can ride mine, anyway, my mount can seat three people."

Meng Ling spoke up at this moment.

"I'm fine. Let's make arrangements for Senior Sister first. Senior Sister, with such a noble body, certainly doesn't want to be squeezed together with a mortal like me. If it really doesn't work out, I can walk down the mountain. That's how I came up here. I'm fine."

Upon hearing this, Lianxin and Xinyi spoke in unison.

"This can't be allowed!"

Lianxin even tapped Meng Ling on the head, saying helplessly.

"I really don't know what's going on in your little head all day long. We all have mounts, how could we let you walk down the mountain?"

Besides, how could the senior sister possibly hold a grudge against a junior sister like you?

Meng Ling continued to carefully observe Jin Shu's expression.

"Senior sister, you can choose whose mount you want to ride first. I'm fine with either one. I'm not picky."

"I ride my own flying cloud."

If it weren't for the spiritual herbs, Jin Shu wouldn't want to see these people causing trouble in front of her at all.

Especially this junior sister, every word she uttered made it seem as if she had been bullied by him. She appeared cautious and humble on the surface, but in reality, it made him look arrogant and rude.

The men in front of her, however, thought she was simple and kind, and each of them tried to persuade Jin Shu to be more tolerant and generous towards her.

Jin Shu watched coldly.

In the end, she ignored everyone, returned to Feiyun's back, patted its feathers, and gave it instructions.

"Go to Elephant Head Mountain."

Seeing this, the remaining people quickly followed.

Finally, Meng Ling sat on the back of her senior brother Jing Ye's mount, looking at Jin Shu who was flying ahead, and asked cautiously.
