Chapter 98 Junior Sister Switches to the Path of Ruthlessness 9 Senior Sister... Senior Sister...

"Senior brother, Changlin Town is just ahead, and it's the only way to Changlin Sea."

Si Qingwu lowered her hand from the sun and smiled faintly at the young man in blue beside her.

"Let's rest for a bit ahead before setting off again."

Si Lanjuan came around from behind her and hit her on the head: "I say, little sister, you are really stupid. Junior Brother Yuwan has traveled all over the world and been to more places than you. It's rare that he doesn't know the way better than you. What do you say, Yuwan?"

Lin Yuwan's long eyelashes obscured the expression in his eyes. He quietly stroked the patterns on the Feather Bracelet. After a long while, he suddenly smiled warmly: "Senior brother, stop teasing your junior sister. Let's go and take a look ahead."

He was tall and straight, with his hair all pulled back and tied up high. As he walked, the ends of his hair fluttered in the wind, sweeping across his broad shoulders and narrow waist.

Si Qingwu chased after her, saying, "I'm starving! I must have a good meal."

An uneasy feeling crept into Lin Yuwan's heart, and she quickened her pace, almost leaving the Sect Leader's two children far behind.

As he got closer to Changlin Town, his heart raced, and the burning sensation on his wrist became more pronounced. He was momentarily stunned, then tilted his head, thinking it might be a hallucination. Crimson lines began to appear, and his joyful gaze slowly moved upward, fixing on the altar in front of him.

A large crowd of people had gathered in front of the altar, making it impossible for anyone to get in or out.

Si Qingwu ran over: "Why are there so many people? Are we celebrating a holiday?"

She wanted to ask Lin Yuwan a question, but found that he was looking up at the altar, his expression not as gentle and refined as she knew him, but rather revealing a hint of gloom.

Si Qingwu had never seen him like this before. She also stood on tiptoe and saw that the altar was surrounded by white gauze, with blue smoke billowing around it. She could vaguely see a graceful figure dancing inside, her posture as ethereal as a fairy.

"Little girl, let me ask you something, what are you doing?" Si Qingwu squatted down and asked a little girl on the outside.

The little girl, showing her two rabbit teeth, said, "The fairy sister is helping us convey our wishes to the mountain god."

Si Qingwu pondered, "Where did this immortal come from..."

She saw Lin Yuwan pushing through the crowd to get in, and blinked in confusion: "Senior brother, where are you going?"

Si Lanjuan leaned against her side: "I think this fairy is a powerful demon. Junior brother is in such a hurry because he's afraid she'll run away."

Music rose from the altar, drowning out any sound of speaking.

Lin Yuwan pushed his way into the crowd, but the people in front of him were like a mountain, and he couldn't squeeze in no matter what he did. He made a hand seal, and when he looked up, there was no one on the altar.

He raised his hand and saw that the light of the spell on his wrist was also dim. In an instant, his expression almost went out of control, his eyes and eyebrows trembled, and he turned his head to look around.

He grabbed someone at random and asked, "Where are the people on stage?"

Seeing that his eyes were red, the man answered tremblingly, "Today is the mountain god's wedding, and the immortal has been taken away by the mountain god."

Mountain god, wedding, immortals...

Lin Yuwan repeatedly chewed on these words. After so many years, she had grown up and even dared to marry someone else.

As the crowd dispersed, Si Qingwu discovered that Lin Yuwan was also nowhere to be found.

"I'd like to see what kind of monster you are, this mountain god."

Yun Chiyi, her face veiled, sat in the sedan chair. She lifted the curtain, and the sedan chair moved through the thick fog, slowly heading deeper into the mountains.

She lowered her hand and looked at the unfamiliar incantation on her wrist with a hint of doubt. In sixteen years, this was the first time she had seen it in its original form.

The spell was drawn in a bewitching pattern, looking like intertwined vines.

How come it's all showing up? Could it be that she sealed her cultivation and couldn't suppress the curse?

The sedan chair suddenly jolted, and Yun Chiyi's head hit the door. She steadied herself and leaned out to look, only to find that they had already entered the valley.

She stepped onto the grass, looked up, and saw that the trees provided shade and the light was dim. Flowers and grass grew everywhere under her feet, like a paradise. She smelled the familiar sweetness and couldn't help but quicken her pace.

She stepped on something and broke it. She used her foot to push it aside and saw a skeletal hand dressed in a wedding gown.

Three days ago, I heard from the villagers in the town that for the past ten years, the bride had been disappearing without a trace, and no one dared to get married after that. Someone then dreamed that the mountain god appeared to him in his dream, saying that he wanted to marry the bride.

The villagers were so intimidated that they dared not offend the mountain god, so they built an altar and prayed that the mountain god would show mercy and not abduct the bride.

Yun Chiyi set up the formation for two days, but the mountain god still did not come. He had no choice but to use himself as bait to come in and find out what was going on.

The fragrance she smells now is that of vines. It's better to be lucky than to search hard. If the Gu worms in her body are not soothed, they might cause a huge uproar.

As she pondered, she arrived at the narrow entrance of the cave.

She dared not advance rashly. After looking around, she summoned her natal sword and cleaved open the cave entrance with a swift stroke.

A thick tree root emerged from within, wrapped around her waist, and rolled inwards, pulling Yun Chiyi upside down into the cave.

Towering, dark vines were hidden inside the cave, the sap on the trees was blood-red, and the cave was filled with a stench.

Yun Chiyi narrowed her eyes in disgust, swiftly cutting off the tree roots that were entangled around her. When she fell, she had nowhere to step but on the white bones.

The giant vines shook their branches and excitedly waved their twigs, creating a sound like the wind that echoed through the cave.

"Gu worms, delicious!"

Yun Chiyi then noticed the cut on her finger. The tree demon knew she had an evil Gu just by tasting her blood, as if they were old acquaintances.

"What a coincidence, I'm here to eat at your place too."

She summoned her natal sword, and a burst of blue light erupted from her body as the silver sword hummed and pierced the tree trunk.

The vine demon hissed, and all its roots rose from the ground, instantly binding Yun Chiyi into a silkworm cocoon.

A wind rose outside the valley. Lin Yuwan, wielding a dark-colored longsword, slashed and cut his way through the valley. His sword energy swept outwards, severing trees, flowers, and even bones.

He had lost track of them for an hour and had long since lost patience.

The strange fragrance wafting towards him stirred his mind, and the Gu worms in his heart began to wriggle. His eyes lit up, and he flashed to the entrance of a cave.

The entrance to the cave was sealed with blood-red slime. Someone had drawn a formation around the cave. Lin Yuwan thrust her longsword into the entrance and stepped inside.

A faint blue light shone from the cave. He looked up and saw a beautiful figure wrapped in vines. Only half of her body was visible, her heart connected to the vines, blood and mucus mixed together.

At first glance, it seemed that the vine demon was absorbing her cultivation, but in reality, the opposite was true; she was using the vine demon to feed the Gu worms in her chest.

Lin Yuwan murmured, "Senior sister, it really is you..."

The vine demon's body quickly withered, and its blue figure fell like rain and mist. Lin Yuwan flew over and caught it in her arms.

Yun Chiyi slept peacefully, her curled eyelashes gently closed, her body covered in blood that stained Lin Yuwan's clothes.

Lin Yuwan landed on the ground and stroked her snow-white cheek in the messy cave, her breathing erratic.

"Senior sister... Senior sister... I've found you."

He stroked the spell on her wrist and pressed her hand against his chin: "What are we going to do now? You can't escape."

Yun Chiyi sensed a hint of danger and instinctively narrowed her eyes. Before she could see who it was, she felt a sharp pain on her neck, and her consciousness returned to darkness.

Lin Yuwan picked her up and calmed down before observing her surroundings. Yun Chiyi no longer acted recklessly. She set up an array outside, and Yun Chiyi would naturally wake up once she had absorbed all the vine demon's power.

But he won't let her have her way.

When Lin Yuwan carried her out, it was completely dark. The mountain forest was so quiet that there wasn't a sound, even without moonlight or starlight.

He didn't use his sword to fly, but walked slowly, letting their body heat touch.

Upon arriving in town, he followed the marks left by Si Qingwu and found the inn.

Si Qingwu was sitting downstairs eating when she saw him carrying a woman covered in blood into the room. She was so shocked that the radish on her chopsticks fell onto the table.

She jumped to her feet: "Senior brother, where are you going? And who is this?"

Upon hearing this, Lin Yuwan said, "Junior sister, could you please help me prepare some hot water?"

Si Qingwu quickly agreed and pulled Si Lanjuan aside: "Why did Senior Brother Yuwan bring someone back with him when he went out?"

Lin Yu went upstairs that night and opened his bedroom door. Si Qingwu suddenly felt that something was wrong. Her senior brother had brought a woman into his bedroom. What kind of behavior was this?

"Senior brother, let me come up and help!"

Lin Yuwan closed the door.

This time, Si Lanjuan couldn't sit still and got up to go upstairs. Fortunately, after a while, Lin Yuwan reopened the door and smiled as she called Si Qingwu upstairs.

Si Qingwu broke out in a cold sweat and quickly grabbed a basin of water and ran over.

Lin Yuwan let her in and said in a muffled voice, "She is my senior sister."

Si Qingwu glanced inside, and the aloof face reminded her of the fairy bride she had seen that afternoon.

"Senior brother, you've been searching for her for over ten years, and you've actually found her..."

Lin Yuwan sat at the table, poured herself a cup of tea, and said slowly, "Yes, we've depended on each other since we were little. I treated her like family. Now that we've met again, it feels like a lifetime has passed."

Si Qingwu was so moved that she burst into tears. She wiped away her tears and said, "Senior brother, you should go out first. Men and women should not touch each other. Let me help my sister wipe her clothes first."

Nodding, Lin Yuwan walked out the door, but didn't go far. Instead, she leaned against the door and guarded the room.

Si Qingwu cast a cleansing spell and then used warm water to wipe Yun Chiyi's face. Seeing that she frowned slightly, she said earnestly, "Sister, you and your senior brother should not be separated again. Your senior brother has traveled all over the country to find you all these years."

She wanted to say something more, but Lin Yuwan knocked on the door and asked, "May I come in?"

Si Qingwu coughed twice: "Senior brother, come in."

Lin Yuwan opened the door, her gaze passing over Si Qingwu to Yun Chiyi sleeping peacefully on the bed. A blush appeared on her fair face, suggesting that the vine demon's power was not easy to absorb.

"Senior brother, why don't you talk to her? She was talking in her sleep just now."

"Really? What did she say?"

"I didn't hear you quite right. I'll go prepare some herbal medicine so she can drink it when she wakes up."

Si Qingwu tidied up the copper basin and closed the door behind her.

Lin Yuwan sat on the edge of the bed, her long fingers stroking from her brow to the bridge of her nose, down to her lips, her thumb gently pinching her soft lips.

"Senior sister."

"Junior Sister".

“I also dream about you, and every time I wish I could tear you to pieces and bury you in the snow.”

Yun Chiyi was in a daze. She only heard the system saying that the male supporting character was approaching. She felt her hand being raised and her wrists being bound by ropes. The demonic power in her body surged wildly, causing her to focus her energy back into her sea of ​​consciousness, leaving her no time to pay attention to anything else.
