The Grand Elder found it absurd, and his pupils involuntarily dilated slightly: "A woman... a woman?"
“Yes,” Si Jin replied, “My junior uncle said that he makes me wear men’s clothing in the sect because he is afraid that my female identity will not be convincing to the people, so he has to do this.”
"But actually, I am a woman, and this secret cannot be told to anyone but me."
"So, Uncle Wang, you have to keep this a secret for me, okay?"
After saying this, he left the Grand Elder, whose expression was complicated, and went back to his bedchamber on his own.
Along the way, he carefully reviewed the original owner's situation once again.
This is a world of martial arts and chivalry. The original owner of this world, Ling Sijin, was the young master of the Divine Doctor Valley. He had healthy parents and lived a carefree life.
The problem was that his junior uncle, Shang Qinghan, fell in love with his mother.
Shang Qinghan was cunning and scheming. After being rejected by Ling's father multiple times when he tried to please him, he became enraged and took advantage of Ling's father's trust to kill him and force Ling's mother to marry him.
Ling's mother was a loyal and righteous woman. On the night before her wedding to Shang Qinghan, she committed suicide by poisoning herself.
Shang Qinghan couldn't bear to see the most beautiful woman in the world, whom he had long admired, die, so he kept Ling's mother's nerves connected with a Gu worm, keeping her alive like a vegetable.
However, the vegetative state patient could not talk and laugh with him, and Shang Qinghan harbored resentment in his heart. He became increasingly displeased with the Divine Doctor Valley, so he simply burned down the bottom of the valley and led his followers to establish the White Moon Sect. He even personally raised the original owner of this deadly weapon and became the sect leader.
As time went by, he felt that although the original owner was a man, he looked very much like Ling's mother.
To satisfy his perverse sense of humor, he secretly dressed the original owner up as a woman and told her, "You are a woman, and this is how you are supposed to be. You must not tell any outsiders this secret."
In this way, the original owner is treated as a replica of Ling's mother, and the original owner is dressed in women's clothing and foolishly tries to make him happy.
Three years ago, Shang Qinghan discovered from the forbidden book of the Divine Doctor Valley that a heart transplant could bring Ling's mother back to life.
They began to painstakingly feed the original owner medicine and raise the Gu in a living body, attempting to turn the original owner's heart into an "antidote to all poisons" and then transfer it into Ling's mother's body.
Five days ago, the Gu worms inside the original body became restless and took his life.
When the original owner recalled her life as a pawn, she felt lost and helpless.
He didn't want to kill, but Shang Qinghan told him that all people suffer, and killing is sending them to paradise, a form of redemption.
He wasn't a woman, but Shang Qinghan had been teaching him since he was four years old that true beauty lies in character, not appearance; and that since he was a woman, he should like men.
He didn't want to like Shang Qinghan because Shang Qinghan was just keeping him as a pretty face, stringing him along while saying she didn't like him.
A deadly weapon, a vase used to poison people.
He lived his whole life without ever truly experiencing what it meant to be human.
Therefore, Si Jin had to appear in women's clothing in front of the White Moon Cult members.
Tearing off Shang Qinghan's hypocritical face!
After reminiscing, Si Jin had already arrived at her bedchamber.
Pushing open the door, I saw Xiao Yao lying on the table, tilting her head to look at a bowl of steaming medicine.
As soon as Si Jin came over, she rushed over and climbed onto his shoulder, raising her paw to report him.
[My lord, I've found out! This medicine can exacerbate the Gu poison within the original owner's body, transforming their heart into an "antidote to all poisons."]
However, the refining process is extremely painful and may result in the loss of all five senses and bleeding from the seven orifices.
This is also why you couldn't smell anything and couldn't see clearly when you first arrived.
Si Jin lowered her head, picked up the bowl of medicine, looked at it, and then splashed the medicine outside the door.
This action was witnessed by Shang Deyi, who was there to supervise him taking his medicine.
Shang Deyi is Shang Qinghan's nephew. He usually hopes that the original owner will die soon so that he can become the leader of the White Moon Cult.
Seeing him throw the medicine, she was immediately enraged and chased him into the house to teach him a lesson.
“Ling Sijin, I painstakingly brewed this medicine. If you don’t drink it, my uncle will be unhappy.”
"If he's unhappy, he might not want you anymore!"
Shang Deyi knew that Si Jin had been less sensitive and less perceptive of emotions than others since childhood.
His world revolved around Shang Qinghan; he considered Shang Qinghan as everything.
As long as he says that, he'll definitely see Si Jin begging and pleading with him.
The White Moon Cult Leader, feared throughout the martial arts world, knelt before him like a dog.
No matter how you look at it, it's a rare and interesting thing.
