Battle Through the Heavens, Reborn as Xiao Yan's Sister

Chapter 127 Xiao Yue's Vigilance: Her Little Cabbage Has Changed... (Two Chapters Combined, Please Subscribe)

"Elder Xiao, there's no need to be modest. Since you are so highly regarded by the Grand Elder, you must have extraordinary abilities." The old gatekeeper waved his hand with a smile, then turned his gaze to the students behind Hu Qian and asked, "You only brought this many people this year?"

Dean Hu Qian nodded and said with some helplessness, "This year's selection of outstanding students for the Foreign Languages ​​Department is indeed not as good as in previous years."

Upon hearing this, the old man frowned slightly, but did not say anything more. After all, they knew the selection criteria for the outer academy of Canaan Academy. Since the number of students selected this year was small, it could only mean that this year's outer academy students were indeed not as good as those of previous years.

"However, there are a few exceptionally talented individuals this year, but unfortunately one of them is on leave," Elder Ming said with a smile.

"Everyone, let's go inside first."

Xiao Yue spoke up to remind him, knowing that the other person was most likely referring to her younger brother.

"Okay, alright." Hu Qian and the others nodded. After all, staying outside the door indefinitely wasn't a good idea. Hu Qian turned to the students and said, "Everyone, stay close and don't move around. There's a spatial array here. If you fall into the spatial restriction, even I would have to go through a lot to save you!"

Saying,

He then walked towards the semi-transparent silver door first.

Xiao Yue and Elder Ming followed closely behind.
The students from the outer academy, filled with curiosity and anticipation, followed at the very back.

As the group passed through the silver gate, the scene before them suddenly changed, as if they had entered another world.

This is a vast expanse of land, with towering mountains in the distance, shrouded in mist, and lush trees and clear streams nearby. The air is filled with a refreshing fragrance that makes one feel relaxed and happy.

"Is this the inner courtyard of Canaan Academy?" an outer courtyard student couldn't help but exclaim.

“That’s right, this is the inner courtyard.” Vice Dean Hu Qian nodded with a smile, then continued, “You will be undergoing a five-year training program here. I hope you will cherish this opportunity and strive to improve your strength.”

Xiao Yue looked around and nodded in approval. This inner courtyard was indeed as good as its reputation. Not only was the environment beautiful, but the spiritual energy was also abundant. It was indeed a good place for cultivation.

"Everyone, let's get ready here first. The Fire Energy Hunting Competition will begin soon." Hu Qian looked at the students meaningfully.

……

……

After the crowd dispersed,

Xiao Yue and Xiao Xun'er strolled to a white jade pavilion in the inner courtyard.

"Sister Xiao Yue..." Xiao Xun'er looked up at Xiao Yue with some reluctance.

After entering the inner courtyard, she will have to participate in a week-long fire energy hunting competition, which means she won't be able to see Xiao Yue for a week.

While in the outer courtyard, they ate and lived together, practically inseparable. Deep down, the girl already harbored a slight tendency towards yandere and dependency, as if Xiao Yue had become an indispensable part of her life.
In just two months,
It was as if the girl had rediscovered the wonderful days she spent in Wutan City, and her time with Sister Xiao Yue made her feel an unprecedented sense of security and warmth.

however,
The upcoming inner courtyard life and the week-long fire energy hunting competition mean that they will have to separate temporarily!

This stirred up an indescribable feeling of withdrawal in Xiao Xun'er's heart. She began to worry, she began to feel uneasy, and she wanted to keep her sister by her side forever...

Xiao Yue noticed her unusual emotions and assumed that the girl simply had a strong dependency complex.

"It's only been a week apart..."

Xiao Yue gently grasped Xiao Xun'er's slightly cold hand. Her voice was soft and magnetic, as if it possessed a magical power that could calm the turmoil in the girl's heart.

The girl lowered her head and gave a soft "hmm".
Then she rushed into Xiao Yue's arms, and a ripple of emotion stirred within her once again.

"Sister Xiao Yue, could you please leave Xiao Cai here?" The girl's gaze suddenly fell on the beautiful little snake coiled on Xiao Yue's shoulder, and this thought suddenly popped into her mind.

"Xiao Cai?"

Xiao Yue was somewhat surprised.

"Well, when Sister Xiao Yue isn't around, I can find Xiao Cai to keep me entertained..." Xiao Xun'er's words carried a hint of coquetry, but deep in her eyes flickered a hint of malice and a deeply hidden sadistic intent.

She seemed to be hoping that Xiao Yue would grant her request in some special way.

"That won't do. There are some things I need Xiao Cai to do with me," Xiao Yue said with a light laugh.

“But, sister… Xun’er wants you to be by my side at all times, never to leave me for a moment.” Xiao Xun’er’s voice trembled slightly, and her eyes revealed an almost morbid obsession.

Xiao Yue sensed the change in the girl's emotions in her arms, and she frowned and gently pushed Xiao Xun'er away.

Looking into the girl's eyes, which were filled with dependence and something was wrong, Xiao Yue finally realized that something was unusual.

The adorable little bok choy she raised when she was young... seems to be gradually becoming a little strange?

"Is Xun'er hiding something from me?" Xiao Yue looked at the girl calmly.

At this moment, Xiao Xun'er seemed to realize her loss of composure. Her expression became somewhat flustered, and in her fluster, she tried to avoid Xiao Yue's gaze.

"take it easy."

Xiao Yue's tone remained calm.
But this time, she carried an undeniable air of authority, and her gaze sharpened, as if she could see through the secrets hidden deep within the girl's heart.

Xiao Xun'er felt a little guilty under Xiao Yue's gaze. Her younger sister was still her younger sister. Although Xiao Yue always treated her gently and never showed any authority as an older sister, the aura that Xiao Yue was showing at this moment made the girl feel a little timid.

The girl lowered her head, avoiding Xiao Yue's gaze, and whispered in denial, "N-nothing, I'm not hiding anything from you, sister..."

Xiao Yue did not believe her answer.

She knew Xiao Xun'er's personality well. This girl next door, who usually seemed well-behaved and obedient, would become somewhat abnormal once she had something on her mind.

If it's not discovered in time, it's hard to imagine what the consequences will be.

"Sister Xiao Yue, I have something to attend to, so I'll be leaving now!"

finished,

Xiao Xun'er turned and ran, seemingly wanting to escape the scene that made her feel somewhat uneasy.

Watching Xiao Xun'er's flustered retreating figure, Xiao Yue frowned slightly and sighed softly. It seemed that she had been too indulgent towards this little girl.

"Your Majesty... what happened between you that night?" Xiao Yue looked down at the seven-colored snake and asked in a detached tone.

She had long suspected that something was amiss.

"Buzz!"

At this time,

A burst of divine light flashed across the seven-colored snake, and it stood upright, its eyes coldly fixed on Xiao Yue.

"Hmph, is this how you speak to me?" Queen Medusa seemed very dissatisfied with Xiao Yue's suddenly indifferent tone.

As soon as she finished speaking,

"Boom!" Suddenly, Xiao Yue swung her hand, and a powerful force erupted instantly, sending Queen Medusa flying.

"Your Majesty, you may have forgotten these days that your life... is still in my hands..."

Xiao Yue slowly approached Medusa. Her expression was indifferent, and her blood-red eyes were icy cold. She looked down at the noble and beautiful queen who was sitting on the ground.

"You!"

Queen Medusa's eyes flashed with extreme anger and resentment. She struggled to get up, but found that her body seemed to be bound by an invisible force, unable to move.

It's obvious that the medicine Xiao Yue gave him last time has taken effect!
At this moment, a trace of blood spilled from the corner of her mouth, staining her jade lips red, adding a touch of bewitching beauty and tragic charm. Her long hair was scattered messily on the ground, and her clothes were also somewhat disheveled, revealing her slender waist and long legs, making her appear even more alluring yet desolate.

She no longer seemed like the noble queen who was high above everyone else, but a captive who could only be humiliated by Xiao Yue!
The surrounding air seemed to freeze, leaving only Queen Medusa's heavy breathing and the slow dripping of blood from the corner of her mouth.

Xiao Yue stood quietly in the pavilion, calmly watching everything, her eyes devoid of any emotion.

Just because a white tiger doesn't show its power doesn't mean it's a sick cat.
This wasn't due to Xiao Yue's sadistic tendencies, but rather because only in this way could she make this proud queen truly realize her situation and become more obedient and compliant.

She was too kind to Queen Medusa in the past, which caused the latter to not recognize her proper place.

"One day, I'll make you taste this humiliation too..." Queen Medusa gritted her teeth. In any case, she could only bow her head in anger now, even though she was unwilling to submit to Xiao Yue like this.

She looked up at Xiao Yue's tall, silver-haired figure, a hint of coldness flashing in her beautiful, murderous eyes...and a few complex emotions.

"Wait and see."

Faced with Her Majesty the Queen's harsh words, Xiao Yue smiled and didn't take them to heart.

She didn't expect the proud Queen to completely submit; she just wanted her to tone down her queenly temper a little and cooperate with her.

At last,
Her Majesty finally relented, and with a blank expression, she told Xiao Yue everything that had happened that night, as well as Xiao Xun'er's sickly behavior.

Upon hearing her description, Xiao Yue's slightly furrowed brows slowly relaxed. "A mild... yandere? And a little bit of sadism?"

This change is not something that can be achieved overnight, but rather the result of gradual accumulation.

This is tricky...

Seeing her frowning in thought, Queen Medusa raised her head, her eyes flashing with provocation, and sneered, "So you have your troubles too. I'm waiting to see you fail miserably."

Upon hearing this, Xiao Yue raised an eyebrow. She wasn't angry; instead, she found it somewhat amusing.

She walked up to Queen Medusa, squatted down, and saw Xiao Yue slowly extend her slender fingers, gently pinching Queen Medusa's chin, lifting her noble and beautiful pale face, forcing her to look at her.

"Change back..."

Xiao Yue spoke calmly.

Queen Medusa collapsed to the ground and looked up at Xiao Yue, her anger and humiliation intensifying. She vowed that one day she would make this human woman pay the price she deserved!
"Buzz!"

Another burst of seven-colored divine light appeared, and Queen Medusa transformed back into her form as a seven-colored snake.

The little guy regained control. It looked around in confusion at first, but when it saw Xiao Yue, it immediately swam towards her fingertips as if it had found its mother, seemingly seeking comfort.

Looking at the adorable, seven-colored snake before her, the coldness in Xiao Yue's bloodshot eyes gradually faded, revealing a hint of gentleness.

"Alright, I won't let her out again for now." Xiao Yue gently stroked the little creature's scales and said reassuringly.

"Woo~"

The colorful little snake seemed to understand Xiao Yue's words. It nodded its little head and responded with a soft whimper.

This incredibly intelligent little creature had far more keen eyesight than Queen Medusa. It could vaguely sense that Xiao Yue's mood had begun to fluctuate, so this time it didn't continue to act coquettishly as before. Instead, it quietly and obediently wrapped itself around Xiao Yue's finger, without disturbing her any further.

at this time,

Xiao Yue was indeed recalling what Queen Medusa had just said, and pondering how to deal with the girl who had somehow developed a slightly twisted mentality.

To be honest, she had vaguely sensed something was off a long time ago, but the girl's feelings were still very young at the time, so she didn't pay much attention to it. But today, it seems that the girl is going further and further down the path of yandere...

After standing there in contemplation for a moment, Xiao Yue suddenly chuckled softly. The emotional turmoil made her suddenly realize that... the problem might not just be Xiao Xun'er, but also herself...?
It would be unfair to Her Majesty to attack Queen Medusa based solely on suspicion. She wasn't like this before. In the end... it's just that her mind is in turmoil.

The girl she's raising is just a yandere with a twisted personality; what could possibly happen to her? Forcibly correcting her would undoubtedly cause enormous harm to the girl... It's better to guide than to suppress!
"It seems my state of mind isn't so perfect after all..." Xiao Yue looked up at the sky, and the turmoil in her heart gradually subsided.

After Xiao Yue figured this out, she felt much more relaxed. From now on, she accepted her imperfections.

Since that's the case... why not try to accept Xiao Xun'er like that?

"A yandere mentality... Interesting..."

Xiao Yue's lips curled up slightly.

She adapted quickly and even discovered a subtle pleasure in it.

Perhaps... she's the one with the most serious psychological problems?

Xiao Yue thought to herself,

Then she gently picked up the seven-colored snake, turned around and left the pavilion, heading towards the inner courtyard of Canaan Academy.

……

……

Xiao Yue has resolved her mental state issue.

However, Xiao Xun'er on the other side was not so simple. At this moment, the girl's mind was in complete turmoil. She felt that the image she had been trying to maintain had completely collapsed in front of Sister Xiao Yue, and she found it hard to bear.

Just now... in front of Sister Yue'er,

"She must hate me," the girl thought dejectedly.

Xiao Xun'er sat on the edge of the cliff, hugging her knees. Her eyes were somewhat blank. No matter how precocious she was, she was still just a teenage girl.

The girl couldn't help but recall the scene when her father had left her alone at the Xiao family home...

That year,

Her feelings were just as confused and uneasy as they were at that moment.

Xiao Xun'er's thoughts seemed to drift back to the days when her father left her alone in the Xiao family, and that feeling of loneliness and confusion welled up in her heart again.

The girl hugged her knees, burying her head between them, as if seeking warmth and comfort. However, the suffocating emptiness and sense of loss in her heart prevented her from finding peace.

"In the end, I still didn't get anything?" Xiao Xun'er murmured to herself, her voice revealing a hint of helplessness and sadness, like a little girl who had made a mistake.
