She had initially thought her senior sister would reject her suggestion, since seduction and arousing inner demons were not exactly honorable things, and might be criticized by those self-proclaimed righteous hypocrites. However, she was now at ease.
Hearing Qiyue's worries, Le Luoxi gently cupped Qiyue's face and said, "Junior Sister, don't worry. Before I become strong enough to not be afraid of anyone, even if I succeed, I will definitely not expose myself."
"It's alright, Senior Sister, don't worry. If you are ever exposed, I will definitely help you kill those people, so that no one will know."
Qi Yue spoke with a smile, her whole demeanor utterly calm. She knew very well that in this world, only strength mattered.
Who can really say who's right and who's wrong? We're all just trying to live a good life, we just have different perspectives.
Looking at the innocent Qiyue, Le Luoxi felt a pang of heartache: "That day will never come. Even if I kill all those people, I will never let your hands be stained with blood. No matter how difficult it is, we will live on together."
"Mmm." Tears welled up in Qiyue's eyes.
This is the first time I've felt such warmth and love. I remember in the world before, I was just someone my parents abandoned after weighing the pros and cons. I was born unloved, and no one would care if I died. All my emotional support came from money and the fleeting happiness brought by my phone and computer, even if it was someone else's happiness.
But unexpectedly, fate gave me a chance—a chance to live again after the confusion and discomfort.
Master, fellow disciples, and senior sisters are very important to Qiyue, who has never tasted love before, like a desert that has long been blessed with rain.
July closed her eyes.
As long as you don't betray me, I'm willing to give everything, even mountains of knives and seas of fire, without hesitation. But if you betray me, let's search the highest heavens and the deepest hell together.
July is obsessive and crazy.
Holding Qiyue in her arms, Le Luoxi felt a pang of heartache. She hadn't expected her junior sister to go through such pain, yet still be so resolute. She understood her junior sister's thoughts, though she didn't know about others. But to her, her junior sister was the ray of light that saved her, giving her the chance to pull back from the brink and choose her path anew.
She would never betray her junior sister.
She loved her, loved this person who was clearly weak and had little contact with them, yet was willing to fight against the favored child of heaven and vow to save them.
Junior Sister will never be alone.
"By the way, Senior Sister, I won't disturb your cultivation any longer. I need to go to the library!"
Emerging from Le Luoxi's fragrant and soft embrace, Qiyue's shadow stretched long in the afterglow of the setting sun.
Upon entering the library, Qiyue immediately began searching for books about talisman cultivation.
The conditions for becoming a talisman cultivator are extremely demanding. Not only must one possess cultivation aptitude, but more importantly, one must have a powerful divine sense, that is, spiritual power and soul.
Otherwise, at best, one will bleed from all seven orifices and suffer serious injuries; at worst, one's consciousness will dissipate, and one will be unable to make any further progress in cultivation in this lifetime.
Following the method described in the book, Qiyue tried it out and found that her divine sense seemed to be extremely powerful, comparable to that of a peak Nascent Soul cultivator, and her soul was also very strong. Although she didn't know why, she felt excited because having more skills was never a bad thing.
As for the path of talisman cultivation, she had nothing to explain to her fourth senior brother, since everything she wanted to say was in the original work. The only things she lacked were elixirs and formations, especially formations.
Qiyue planned to start by practicing low-grade, first-level talismans, so she found a few books on low-level talismans. She counted on her fingers and realized that although she was a sword cultivator, she knew a little about formations, so it seemed that she could also become a talisman cultivator.
Speaking of which, both Seventh Senior Brother and that little guy Ji Su have water spiritual roots, and in the original work, water spiritual roots seem to be more suitable for alchemy.
Oh my? It seems like alchemy is something I could try.
However, she still needs to take it slowly.
Let's try a local-grade elixir formula first!
Without further ado, Qiyue found a book containing the lowest-level Earth-grade pill formulas and returned to the South Pavilion.
"Waaaaah~" As soon as Qiyue entered the South Pavilion, a fluffy creature hugged her head. It was the Nine-Tailed Fox. The poor Nine-Tailed Fox looked at Qiyue, who had abandoned it, with teary eyes and a pitiful expression. It whimpered as if it was accusing her of how she could bear to abandon such a cute spirit beast.
Qiyue stroked the nine-tailed fox's head, smoothing its fur, her eyes sparkling: "Alright, alright, I was wrong. How about I take you down the mountain to play tomorrow?"
"Aww!!" Upon hearing this, the Nine-Tailed Fox excitedly rolled around in Qi Yue's arms, occasionally rubbing against Qi Yue, kissing her face, and acting cute and charming.
Qiyue was instantly softened. She became King Zhou, understood King Zhou, and surpassed King Zhou without the slightest hesitation. She smiled lewdly and buried her head in the belly of the nine-tailed fox with a look of infatuation, sucking it frantically. The two of them were having a great time.
Until a voice rang out above me.
"Junior Sister, what are you doing?"
"Holy crap!" Qi Yue turned her head and bounced three times while hugging Jiuwei. She saw Zhuo Ziyu hanging upside down by the window, his face pale. His big eyes were staring at her. It was already late, and the scene was incredibly impactful. Qi Yue almost drew her sword.
"It's very soft." However, before she could recover from the shock of being frightened by Zhuo Ziyu, a voice rang in her ear, and a slightly cool hand touched the hand she was holding Jiuwei.
"A ghost!!!" No joke, Qiyue was really scared. She instinctively grabbed the Nine-Tailed Fox by the back of its neck and drew her sword to kill it in the blink of an eye.
"Do you want to kill me? Junior Sister!!!" A terrified scream rang out, and only then did Qiyue sheathe her sword and see who it was. It was Song Yanzhuo, dressed in red.
Looking at the two of them, Qiyue was so angry she laughed, and asked them a soul-searching question: "Friends! Are you trying to scare me to death?"
"Really?" Zhuo Ziyu said dismissively.
A voice came from outside: "I think Junior Sister was really scared by you guys."
It was Xie Ji'an.
Song Yanzhuo wiped away a cold sweat. He had been closest to his junior sister just now: "Fifth brother, you don't know, that sword was only 0.01 millimeters away from my neck. If I hadn't already broken through to the Nascent Soul stage and my junior sister hadn't only reached the Golden Core stage, we would have been doomed today."
"I feel sorry for you for a second." Zhuo Ziyu laughed, climbed down from the window, and patted Song Yanzhuo's shoulder to comfort him.
Seeing this, Qiyue couldn't help but roll her eyes and gave the two of them an annoyed look: "Childish!"
Then, deliberately ignoring the two, he said to Xie Ji'an, who hadn't scared him, "Senior Brother is the best. May I ask what brings you here to see me so late at night?"
"Here's the thing, your second senior brother is going to the black market to buy something, and we also have something we want to sell. We thought you haven't been there before, so we came to see if you're interested."
After finishing his speech in a serious tone, Xie Ji'an even raised his chin at Song Yanzhuo and Zhuo Ziyu, his deep black eyes filled with pride and smugness.
This scene is just like a little kid vying for attention.
Seeing this, Song Yanzhuo and Zhuo Ziyu were filled with regret. They had only wanted to tease their junior sister, but they had ended up shooting themselves in the foot. Not only had they lost all goodwill, but they had also benefited their senior brother.
My heart aches so much...
