Nangong Luoyu once heard of a strange martial art in Piaomiao Immortal Sect, called: The Way of Mercilessness.
Its essence lies in "If you are ruthless in your heart, you will be invincible." However, if you want to reach the highest level of this skill, you must go through an extremely cruel test - killing the one you love with your own hands.
Now that Xiao Ding no longer loves her, Nangong Luoyu decides to find a new target. She wants to prove that she is not unloved, and she doesn't want to be a poor abandoned person. So, she locks on a target - Xiao Ning, the child of Xiao Ding and Chu Qian.
Nangong Luoyu's heart of Taoism was broken by Xiao Ding's ruthlessness, and she knew she had to find a way to mend this rift. So, she came up with a plan to kidnap Xiao Ning and raise him herself. She firmly believed that as long as Xiao Ning fell in love with her, she would be able to prove the Tao that she pursued in her heart by killing him. It was also because of this that Xiao Ning disappeared later. But she never expected that the power of emotion was so strong.
During the year she spent with Xiao Ning, this lovely child had always been by her side. Gradually, Nangong Luoyu's broken heart began to heal. She couldn't believe it, and the facts before her shocked her.
However, all consequences have their own price, and just when she was intoxicated by Xiao Ning's company, retribution came. Xiao Ding unexpectedly came to her and found their master, Li Changsheng.
For Nangong Luoyu, Li Changsheng is one of the people she fears the most in this life. As a powerful person in the Lianxu realm, Li Changsheng knows Nangong Luoyu's methods very well. Soon after, her whereabouts were discovered.
"Traitor! How dare you take your fellow apprentice's child away? Do you know your crime?" Li Changsheng asked angrily.
Nangong Luoyu knelt on the ground and begged bitterly: "Master, I know I was wrong, but I have no ill intentions. I just want someone to accompany me. Please don't separate me from Ning'er! Master..."
"Hmph, don't think I don't know what you're thinking. I know exactly what you're thinking. Come back with me and reflect on it before you make a big mistake!" Li Changsheng said seriously.
At this time, Nangong Luoyu, facing Li Changsheng, whose strength far exceeded hers, was filled with helplessness and unwillingness. She bit her lips tightly, her fingers trembling slightly, and finally slowly handed Xiao Ning back to Xiao Ding. However, behind this seemingly obedient behavior, she secretly made some moves.
She carefully extracted a wisp of Xiao Ning's soul, and hid it in her body as if she were holding a precious treasure. Then, she followed Li Changsheng silently and embarked on the journey back to Piaomiao Xianzong.
After returning to the sect, although Xiao Ding did not pursue the matter of Nangong Luoyu secretly kidnapping Xiao Ning, she was still severely punished for secretly learning the sect's secrets and was sentenced to five years in prison.
During the long five years of imprisonment, Nangong Luoyu's world became extremely small, and she could only be accompanied by Xiao Ning's soul every day. She often stared at the soul quietly, as if she could see Xiao Ning's figure and hear his voice from it. However, the pain and loneliness of imprisonment kept coming like a tide, torturing her to the point of collapse.
Finally, Nangong Luoyu's heart was completely devoured by pain and despair. Her eyes revealed a crazy determination, as if she had lost all scruples.
With trembling hands, she cast the forbidden spell. As she chanted the spell, mysterious rays of light surrounded her. Xiao Ning's soul was pulled by a powerful force and gradually approached Nangong Luoyu.
When Xiao Ning's soul merged into her body, an indescribable pleasure spread throughout her body like an electric current. It was an extreme pleasure, as if all the beauty in the world gathered at this moment. Her body trembled involuntarily, and every cell was cheering.
However, as the pleasure gradually faded, Nangong Luoyu's eyes became empty and confused. She seemed to have lost her soul, and her whole body fell into a state of chaos. Her steps staggered, and she kept muttering: "Ning'er... Ning'er..." Her voice was filled with endless longing and pain.
Her hair was disheveled, her facial expression was sometimes distorted, sometimes dull, and her hands were waving in the air, as if trying to catch the person who had disappeared from her life.
After Nangong Luoyu was released, she still locked herself up at home, closed the doors and windows, and refused to see anyone. She was immersed in her own world all day, and no one knew what she was studying. Her room was filled with all kinds of strange objects and books, and the walls were covered with mysterious symbols and patterns.
Finally, one day a year later, Nangong Luoyu suddenly escaped from the sect. Her figure disappeared without a trace in the night like a ghost. No one knew where she went, and no one knew what she was going to do...
After returning to the capital of the Great Chu Kingdom, after the light of the beam that shot straight into the sky dissipated, Chu Qian and the others walked out of the palace and looked up at the sky. They saw Nangong Luoyu standing alone in the air, her white hair swirling in the wind, and a strong aura emanating from her body. She had a crazy smile on her face and shouted loudly:
"I did it! I did it! I finally did it!"
Leng Qingqiu covered her mouth in surprise, staring at Nangong Luoyu, and she muttered to herself in disbelief.
"Could it be... Nangong Luoyu has broken through the barrier and advanced to the Lianxu realm?"
However, Chu Qian was not concerned about Nangong Luoyu's improvement in cultivation. She was only worried about Xiao Ning's safety. She quickly flew into the air, glared at Nangong Luoyu, and asked, "Nangong Luoyu, where did you hide Ning'er?"
