Chapter 46: 47. The Gift from Junior Sister, the Powerless and Furious Ye Chen (Seeking Follow-up)_1

Qinglan Sect, Tiandang Peak, the inner sect disciples’ dormitory.

A young man in black, his body covered in medicinal salves and wrapped in thick, blood-stopping bandages, sat weakly on a wooden bed.

His skeleton was completely shattered, rendering him unable to move.

A pair of bloodshot eyes, filled with hatred, stared resentfully at the ceiling.

That old hag Xiao Hongling, she dares to treat me like this! Once I, this Princely Heir, rise to power, I’ll surely draw out her bones and tendons, and tear her body into countless pieces!

And that worthless Lin Xiao! A mere ant like you, how dare you oppose me, this Princely Heir!

Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west; never underestimate...

COUGH, COUGH, COUGH, COUGH...

Before he could finish reciting his lifelong motto, the young man finally succumbed, erupting in violent coughs. Large mouthfuls of blood sprayed out, staining his clothes crimson.

SIGH...

At this moment, an unusual light shone from the black ring on the young man’s right hand, followed by a sigh.

"Little friend, if you knew it would come to this, why did you even begin?

"Before you came up the mountain, when we encountered that little girl Lu Yingying, I urged you to leave.

"If you had listened to my advice then and avoided the Qinglan Sect, you would still be blessed with great fortune. Opportunities would have constantly come your way, and beautiful women would have flocked to you, just as it was on your journey from the Great Zhou Territory! Wouldn’t that have been wonderful?

"Have you not realized yet? Every woman you’ve encountered in the Qinglan Sect so far has been scheming to cause your downfall, you, the Son of Destiny! In contrast, Lin Xiao, the one you detest most, deliberately gave you an out at today’s public hearing, sparing your life. He’s actually quite a decent fellow!"

"ENOUGH!!!"

Hearing the name "Lin Xiao," the young man’s face contorted in rage, his expression twisted as he yelled, Old Shi! It has already come to this! What use is there in saying all that now? You just want to mock and ridicule me, this Princely Heir!

"Sigh, Princely Heir, whether you admit it or not, Lin Xiao’s appearance truly has unsettled your mind. Take a good look at yourself!

"Are you still that high-spirited Princely Heir of Beichuan who swore to avenge his father?

"Nevermind. I’ve said all I can. You... are on your own now..."

A heavy sigh emanated from the ring, and then the light vanished, leaving no response.

This...

Realizing that his greatest support in life might be gone forever, Ye Chen finally panicked.

Driven by fear, tears streamed down his face as he hastily pleaded with the ring, Old Shi? Old Shi, where have you gone? You... you wouldn’t abandon me, would you?

Master! Master, I was wrong! I’ll listen to everything you say from now on! Let us, Master and Disciple, join forces! We’ll sweep through the Nine Heavens and Ten Earths, and none shall dare defy us!

Didn’t you say it yourself? I, Ye Chen, am the Son of Destiny! Let alone the Central State, the entire Divine Continent will one day be but a corner in my palm! Can you truly bear to see me perish here, in this remote corner at the foot of the Qinglan Sect?

Seeing no response from the ring, he grew increasingly anxious and added,

Oh, right! And another thing!

Your disciple knows you hail from an Immortal Ancient Tribe in the Upper Realm! The reason you’re now just a remnant soul, fallen to this lower realm, must be because you were betrayed and harmed, right?

Rest assured! The day I, Ye Chen, Prove the Dao, Old Shi, your enemies will be my enemies! I will make them pay the price! I will reforge your Divine Soul and reconstruct your physical body!

He ignored the pain, propped himself up, and kowtowed to the empty air!

Finally.

The Soul Ring in his hand lit up again, and that familiar old voice resonated once more.

"Princely Heir, you always promise to listen to me, but when have you not acted willfully and recklessly?

"How can I trust you again?"

No! This time is different!

Ye Chen earnestly said, Old Shi, believe me! This time I truly know I was wrong! I, Ye Chen, swear by the heavens!

As long as you can help heal my injuries and, in the upcoming Five Branches Martial Competition, help me crush that worthless Lin Xiao underfoot in front of his junior sister and Master, allowing me to vent this bitter resentment! I will leave the Qinglan Sect immediately afterward!

It’s just that...

Saying this, he swallowed nervously, tentatively asking, I’m so grievously injured now. With your vast Divine Skills, do you still have a way to help me fulfill my deepest wish?

"Hmph, little rascal. I see right through your thoughts. No need to probe me."

The voice in the ring said,

"Very well. I... I shall trust you one last time! I will help you seize victory in the Five Branches Martial Competition and reclaim your dignity as the Son of Destiny!

"Even if that Lin Xiao possesses the exceedingly rare Formless Sword Body and is backed by that Master of his with the Taiyin Sword Body and an extraordinary background, in my eyes... he is nothing remarkable!"

Hahahaha, that’s wonderful, Old Shi!

Ye Chen, upon hearing this, exclaimed excitedly, I knew you’d have a way! Please, Old Shi, instruct me!

The two were in the Soul Ring’s space, exchanging instructions on techniques.

KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK.

A knock came from the door.

Who is it? Ye Chen’s eyes snapped open, his gaze wary.

"My dear disciple, it is I. Your Master was worried and came to check on your injuries," a deep and gentle voice came through.

Old Daoist Yuanyi?

Xiao Hongling beat me half to death at the public hearing today, and this dog didn’t even dare to fart! Now he’s here acting all concerned?

This old coot insisted on taking me as his disciple at the acceptance ceremony, going against everyone else. He must have been scheming something! Now that he sees I’m grievously injured and incapacitated, he’s probably going to show his true colors.

Whatever. I’ll just see what kind of act he puts on!

Ye Chen cursed inwardly for a few moments, then suppressed his emotions and said calmly, "Master, please come in."

***

The Sacred Beast Garden was a Spiritual Beast breeding ground affiliated with the Qinglan Sect.

It was located in the Spiritual Energy Forest between Phoenix Caw Peak and Divine Phoenix Peak.

WHOOSH—

With the Formless Sword Body and the Drunken Immortal Watching Moon Step—a movement technique inherited from the Wine Sword Immortal of the Upper Realm, which the system had practically forced upon him—Lin Xiao’s Sword Control efficiency had increased a hundredfold. He moved like lightning, arriving in an instant.

BANG!

The moment he landed.

He saw the silhouette of a petite, delicate girl, barefoot like a forest sprite, standing at the main gate.

Beside her lay a massive Spiritual Beast with the head of a lion and the body of an eagle, its entire form seeping crimson flames.

Who else could it be but his own Junior Sister, Lu Yingying?

Perhaps it was because her figure was so petite and adorable.

Every time Lin Xiao looked at her, a sense of endearment would well up within him!

He concealed his aura, executed his movement technique, and in one step forward, he wrapped an arm around the girl’s slender waist, pulling her against his chest.

Of course, his main reason for doing this was to maintain his persona as the villainous Eldest Senior Brother.

Over the years, his meetings with his junior sisters invariably began with him taking some liberties.

Both sides had grown accustomed to it.

He hadn’t expected...

"Ah, Eldest Senior Brother, you’re here!"

Lu Yingying’s small face was alight with excitement; she had recognized him without even turning around!

"Sigh, no fun at all."

Lin Xiao shook his head. "Junior Sister, how did you know it was me?"

"Hahaha! Because Yingying is very familiar with Eldest Senior Brother’s breathing and scent!"

Lu Yingying stuck out her tongue playfully. "Hmph, hmph, hmph~ Still trying to scare me! Eldest Senior Brother, you’re such a tease!"

"Fair enough."

Lin Xiao shrugged, carefully observing the pure, innocent girl before him, her face radiant as a flower.

For a moment, he found it impossible to connect her with the corrupted, dangerously obsessive girl who had attempted to command myriad beasts and flatten the Qinglan Sect!

Just as his thoughts were drifting, the twin-tailed girl before him tiptoed, bringing her delicate, lovely lips close to his ear, and said softly,

"Eldest Senior Brother! Yingying has a very, very big gift for you!

"This is something that Second Senior Sister and Third Senior Sister definitely can’t do! Not even... not even Master could!

"I think... Eldest Senior Brother will definitely love it!"

Damn it.

Was this segment in the original novel?

This girl... she couldn’t be planning to go off-script and change the plot again, could she?!

Lin Xiao frowned, a faint premonition that things were not as simple as they seemed.
