This Is Not the Female Demon Lord I Remembered

Chapter 61: Chapter 61: Past Events

Even as a disciple of a Super Force, if you provoke the Witch, she can effortlessly barge into the sect to claim your life.

Those Super Forces simply concede defeat, letting her kill whoever she wants as long as she doesn’t wreak havoc!

Of course, this is also because players who have provoked Su Youyi generally aren’t of high status. Players holding higher positions within Super Forces have never dared to provoke Su Youyi; they’ve been strictly ordered by their elders!

This was revealed to Liang Yi by a True Inheritor player friend from the Sword Cleanse Heavenly Pool, the specific reasons unclear, but they were sternly warned of the consequences of provocation!

In his past life, Liang Yi had a wonderful and fulfilling life and wasn’t remotely connected to Su Youyi, so he never directly faced her terror.

Liang Yi had only heard of the various horrifying achievements of the great Witch Su Youyi through players’ stories, word of mouth, and online forums.

The very first time he actually saw Su Youyi, she was clashing with some unnamed mysterious powerhouse, her advanced Daoist Skills flowing out as if mana was of no concern, flattening the area that, moments before, had been a mountain.

Back then, Liang Yi was so dazzled by Su Youyi’s beauty that he was stupefied!

Previously, he had seen photos on the players’ forum of the Witch hunting down players or NPCs, which looked very stylish but were easily forgotten. It’s just like some celebrities; they seem okay when you see them online.

But when you come face-to-face with the real person, along with their temperament, that’s when you understand what © beauty really is!

Su Youyi, with her peerless cool aura, clad in a plain white dress, her hair as smooth as silk cascading down, her eyebrows like paintings, her nose high and delicate, her figure proud and slender. Even without a single accessory, your eyes just can’t leave her.

Spoken in the same breath as "Red Jade Demonic Eyes" by players is Su Youyi’s "Mortal World Stunning Beauty."

No wonder every player who’s seen the Witch, even if they were killed by her, would become fans after reviving. It can be said that Su Youyi is the number one idol among the player community!

"As long as you hype up the Red Jade Demonic Eyes, we are sworn brothers of different fathers and mothers!"

Liang Yi was totally struck by her radiance, so much so that he forgot the common sense that when big shots are fighting, ants should run. He got caught in the aftermath of their battle when they were about to shift the battlefield to the Nine Heavens and honorably contributed his revival counts.

Therefore, in this life, when he saw Su Youyi, still in her younger state, he didn’t recognize her at first.

Plus, her long-time clingy foodie cute charm almost made him forget that his junior sister in her past life was a Witch whom the whole world bowed down to.

"Hmm hmm hmm~"

Thinking of this, Liang Yi couldn’t help but hum a tune with pride.

"But these new skills don’t have any special effects, do they?" Liang Yi leafed through them several times and didn’t find any additional descriptions in the skill suffixes.

In his past life, he only had a suicidal golden skill, its power all focused on self-destruction; what more special effects did it need? When lurking in the players’ forum, he had seen others post their skill panels, the highest being only orange skills.

Golden skills, each and every one of them mighty as hell, would they get targeted if shown off?

Thus, Liang Yi wasn’t sure if it was because his Endless Dao and Immaculate Sword Technique were too special or what. If it’s about quality, other golden skills didn’t have special effects.

"I don’t get it!" Liang Yi gave up thinking, no effects, then so be it. Skills also depend on who uses them, if a newbie with a golden skill PKs against a professional gamer with a blue skill, unless the golden skill’s effect is ridiculously overpowering, it’s hard to say who would win or lose.

Looking around, Liang Yi tidied up the surroundings, since he had used up the experience, it was time to start closed-door cultivation! Anyway, as a homebody, it didn’t make much difference to him where he stays.

"Right, didn’t I say I’d cook dinner and tell stories for my junior sister tonight?"

"But this is an irresistible force from the master, should be okay, right?"

"Gulp gulp gulp!"

···········

Youdao Mountain summit.

"Master, I really don’t want to go into seclusion. It’s so boring!"

Su Youyi called down the lazily hovering Master from the sky with the help of the blue elf and, whiningly swinging his sleeve, she said.

"Your senior brother has already started, and yet you’re still thinking about slacking off?"

Chen Hua was enjoying a nice sleep when he was woken up and called down; now he faced his little disciple, feeling quite helpless.

Su Youyi didn’t listen to a word the Master said. She let go of his sleeve and, with both hands propped against her cheeks, longingly said:

"Senior brother must be so bored meditating alone. Maybe I should go keep him company?"

The temperature at the summit is always a bit colder than at the foot of the mountain. Although Chen Hua was no longer troubled by the cold, he habitually inserted his hands into his sleeves, standing on the side with a grimace.

"Do you know why I had your senior brother go into seclusion?"

Chen Hua’s lips slightly curled up as he started to deploy his old, infallible ploy.

"Why?"

Hearing "senior brother", Su Youyi finally turned her full attention to her own Master.

Chen Hua found a clean spot on the ground to sit down, gazing into the clouds swirling around Youdao Mountain. After pausing for a bit, he spoke in a gentle voice:

"Your senior brother, you see, he may always be all smiles, but deep down, he carries a sense of pride. He wants to protect you!"

Su Youyi sat down next to her Master and was a bit taken aback by the response.

"Both of you, before coming to the sect to cultivate, were just ordinary people. Liang Yi used to wander with you from place to place, eking out a living. To shield you from the elements, there’s no telling what hardships he endured."

"It took me a full year just to get his body in order and if I hadn’t coerced that old man from Medicine Valley, Liang Yi would be left with only twenty years of life, while the average lifespan for a normal person hovers around 130 years."

Chen Hua’s gaze turned vacant, reminiscing. Back then, Liang Yi was like a wild beast protecting its young, amiable on the surface but ready to fight anyone who dared come near Su Youyi.

And as for the young Su Youyi, her situation was even more exceptional, nothing like her cheerful self today.

Despite having a special constitution and an extraordinary talent that perfectly matched the Taoist Sect’s cultivation techniques, her origins remained a mystery.

According to Liang Yi, who had lost his memory, he was very small when extreme hunger struck, unable to find work or food in the city. So he ventured to the mountains outside the city hoping to pick some wild fruits to stave off hunger, and it was there in the dense forest he found Su Youyi.

In the dense forest of the deep mountains lay a baby wrapped in precious silk, not crying or fussing. No matter how you looked at it, the scene seemed eerie.

Liang Yi had just gathered some wild fruits and was about to head down the mountain when he was suddenly tripped in the woods, scraping his knees, with fruits scattered all around.

"Waaa! Waaa!"

The clear cry of a baby echoed through the forest, startling Liang Yi, who was holding his leg and trying to lick his wounds.

Approaching cautiously, he then realized that the crying came from a baby.

Liang Yi gently picked up the infant and, imitating the women he had seen on the streets, gently swayed back and forth, occasionally making funny faces.
