There is only one True Person in the Heavenly Realm, who is the male protagonist of this book, Lin Zhen's master, True Person Lianhua.
Because the timeline is before the female protagonist was banished to the mortal realm.
So she's not the white rabbit spirit, Bai Tongtong, yet; she's the little fairy attendant beside the male lead, Bai Tong.
[Ding dong! Congratulations, host, you have activated a side quest: Obtain the male protagonist's "three intentions": love, jealousy, and regret.]
This side quest offers a generous reward of contribution points, so please take it seriously.
[Friendly reminder: A wisp of the male protagonist's divine consciousness is attached to the pendant around Dan Ling's neck. Although he's not physically present, he can see your every move!]
Lin Zhenzhen lowered her head and silently rolled her eyes dramatically.
Damn, why are there so many random side quests popping up again?
Is this damn system no longer satisfied with only pursuing one man in its missions?
[I didn't say you had to romance him; you just need to evoke these three emotions in the male lead. It's not that difficult!]
Lin Zhenzhen took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down.
Seeing her like this, Mo Yin thought she was about to lose control of her emotions, so he quickly raised his voice and shouted, "Xiao Qi!"
Lin Zhenzhen turned her head away, her expression sorrowful.
"Senior brother, I just hurt my knee, I'm not deaf, you don't need to shout so loudly."
"...I was just reminding you because I noticed you were spacing out."
Lin Zhenzhen rubbed her ears: "I wasn't distracted, it's just that after so long, I still can't get used to it."
She lowered her head, her voice so low it was almost inaudible: "Our master has become a star in the sky."
"I can only hear others talk about it in this lifetime; I will never be able to touch it myself."
“That’s not necessarily true,” Danling suddenly spoke up. “This matter concerns the safety of all living beings.”
"If our investigation proves that he is indeed a reincarnation of the Heavenly Demon bloodline, the True Man will definitely descend to the mortal realm to deal with it personally."
Good heavens!
Don't come! Lin Zhenzhen was thinking a million things.
If the male lead really comes, how could Yan Feichen's identity still be kept secret?
Mo Yin had been secretly observing Lin Zhenzhen and noticed that her eyelids were trembling incessantly, as if she was about to cry at any moment.
"Two immortals, my junior sister has just come out of the secret realm. Could you please let her go back and rest for a while?"
Danling frowned: "But time is of the essence. What if that demon manages to escape during this time..."
Mo Yin suppressed his anger, and the vajra in his hand made a faint sound.
"If you want to investigate, I'll accompany you. Xiao Qi is already in poor health."
How can we let you keep stabbing her in the heart?
Mo Yin felt his sleeve being tugged, and a soft, small voice came from behind him.
"Senior brother, I'm fine."
Lin Zhenzhen raised her head, her eyes sparkling with tiny lights.
She spoke in a very low voice, as if she were being somewhat cautious.
Will Master really come?
Danling was taken aback, and her tone became hesitant.
"That's highly likely."
Lin Zhenzhen lowered her eyes, trying her best to hide her emotions.
But the uncontrollable upward curve of her lips betrayed her thoughts at that moment.
Mo Yin sighed, turned away with a flick of his sleeve, and refused to look any longer.
"Is there anything I need to do now?"
"In order to better carry out the preliminary investigation, we would like to ask you, Master Lin, to cooperate with us and answer a few questions."
Lin Zhenzhen nodded: "I will definitely tell you everything I know."
"Did you encounter any unusual phenomena in the secret realm?"
"Strange phenomenon?" Lin Zhenzhen frowned, seemingly trying to recall. "Now that you mention it, it seems I have indeed encountered it before."
"When I arrived at a certain area, I found that the demonic energy had become exceptionally dense."
Lin Zhenzhen took out the Demon-Seeking Bell hanging from her waist, peeled back the outer metal casing to reveal the blackened inner core: "Even this magic weapon has malfunctioned."
"Demonic energy that even the Demon-Seeking Bell couldn't withstand?"
Danling's eyes lit up: "Then have you found the source of that abnormal demonic energy?"
"Looking for?" Lin Zhenzhen shook her head. "I entered the secret realm only to save my disciple, not to eliminate the demons within."
Seeing the disappointment on Danling's face, Lin Zhenzhen changed the subject.
"However, I did encounter a suspicious monster on my way back."
"He not only possesses a strong demonic aura, but also boasts astonishing combat power. Even when surrounded by several top-tier demonic beasts, he shows no signs of being at a disadvantage."
Mo Yin interrupted her: "How could top-tier demonic beasts appear in a secret realm? And there's more than one?"
"I'd like to know the answer to that question too."
Her eyes turned cold: "I'll have to trouble you to investigate this thoroughly, senior brother."
Yan Feichen was summoned to maintain order in the secret realm, and shortly after, the secret realm was damaged and monsters invaded.
Lin Zhenzhen didn't believe it was all a coincidence.
Danling became visibly excited: "Did you see his face? What does he look like?"
“I don’t know.” Lin Zhenzhen shook her head. “He has no face.”
"No face?" Danling said hastily. "Even if he's not in human form, he must have some distinguishing features, right?"
“No distinguishing features.” Lin Zhenzhen smiled. “It just looks like a thick cloud of black smoke.”
"But speaking of which, I am somewhat curious," Lin Zhenzhen rolled her eyes, "how exactly did you determine the Heavenly Demon bloodline?"
-------------------------------------
"Sister Lin." Bai Tongtong skipped over to her. "May I call you that?"
"Sister?" Lin Zhenzhen smiled. "I'm not necessarily older than you, am I?"
Bai Tongtong was stunned. After being enlightened and ascended by the True Person, she had always maintained the appearance of a fifteen or sixteen-year-old and often forgot her real age.
"So, calling her Sister Lin?" Bai Tongtong scratched her hair. "That doesn't seem quite right."
"Just call me Lin Zhen." Lin Zhenzhen said expressionlessly.
The terms "sisters" and "younger sisters" sound like the concubines vying for the emperor's favor in the imperial harem.
It's our first time meeting, why do we have to pretend to be familiar with each other?
Bai Tongtong noticed Lin Zhenzhen's coldness towards her, pouted somewhat aggrievedly, and ran back to Danling to complain.
Lin Zhenzhen didn't care about her feelings at all and walked straight ahead.
She only stopped when she saw a swamp filled with black smoke.
Bai Tongtong cried out in surprise from behind, "What is that thing?"
