After awakening, the female supporting character in the abused novel only wants to ascend to immorta

Chapter 4 Su Bai
After kowtowing three times to the ancestral tablets in the ancestral hall, Lin Zhao walked out of the hall and encountered groups of young men and women.

"Third Miss." The young men and women bowed respectfully to her, not forgetting to observe her expression.

After all, it's extremely shameful for a husband to leave on their wedding day... even in the cultivation world.

Lin Zhao smiled and returned the greetings to everyone one by one. Her unpretentious manner made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.

Before long, the familiar courtyard gate appeared before us.

Upon opening the courtyard gate, a white figure came into view under the ancient tree and in front of the stone table.

He was an extremely handsome young man. It seemed inappropriate to use the word "beautiful" to describe a man, but Lin Zhao couldn't think of any other word to describe the monster before him.

Everyone said she was beautiful, but when Lin Zhao looked closely in the mirror in front of this person, she felt that she was too rough-looking.

"Sister is back." The boy stroked the snow-white little beast on his shoulder and said, "Mili has been waiting for you for a long time, she can't wait any longer."

The snow-white little beast darted into Lin Zhao's arms like a streak of light. Lin Zhao stroked Mi Li's soft fur, and only then did he feel as if he had been reborn.

"Su Bai, what are you doing in my yard?"

Su Bai stood up, and Lin Zhao suddenly realized that the child she had taken in was already a head taller than her. She couldn't help but feel a pang of regret for how much she had missed out on.

"I miss my sister." Su Bai said, "I've already asked the maid to prepare water for you in the inner room. Go and relax. There won't be any more Holy Sons or Junior Sisters bothering you here."

Lin Zhao didn't think much of it. After Su Bai left, he called Mi Li back, stroked the little beast's soft white fur, and narrowed his long eyes slightly: "Mili, do you think I would be sad if I ruined that junior sister's face?"

A flash of brilliant electricity appeared and disappeared from the boy's fingertips.

……

Although she only needs a Cleansing Spell to clean herself now, Lin Zhao still enjoys taking baths.

Although those who cultivate the Tao should not have greed, anger, ignorance, or desires, the Great Tao is hard to find. She used to suffer and temper her will, but what did she gain? It's better to just enjoy the present moment.

Lin Zhao exhaled a breath of stale air and saw the blue dress by the shelf, feeling a warmth in her heart.

Within the sect, the Cloud Peak Immortal Venerable always admonished her, "As the senior sister of Cloud Peak, you should set an example, distinguish right from wrong, and never act as you please. It's best not to wear worldly clothes."

So she wore that mourning robe for ten whole years without changing it!
The Lin family clearly understood her preferences.

After changing into a blue dress, Lin Zhao arrived at the family hall and looked at the young men and women playing around in the Lin family hall. She couldn't help but sigh.

"It's great to be young."

"My sister is only sixteen years old, why does she talk like an old monster?"

A young man carrying a white jade umbrella appeared beside her without her noticing, and asked with a slight smile.

Even though she had already seen Su Bai's good looks, Lin Zhao was still slightly stunned when she saw the young man in red brocade clothes.

"What Xiaobai is wearing today... I thought she was a celestial being from a painting," Lin Zhao teased.

Su Bai was the adopted son of the Lin family, whom she had picked up from the battlefield when she was five years old. He was a year younger than her, and because they were of similar age, she and Su Bai were inseparable until she was forced to leave the Lin family due to the plot. After that, she only learned from the Lin family that Su Bai had entered a place with terrifying power, and it was because of his help that the Lin family did not truly fall from the ranks of aristocratic families.

Looking at the slightly thin young man before her, Lin Zhao couldn't help but sigh for her past self, who was always powerless to change her fate. She was born into the Lin family, and the Lin family never abandoned her even in her most difficult times. So, she, the only daughter of the family head with cultivation talent, should have been the one to revitalize the family, but in the end, all the pressure fell on Su Bai.

Upon hearing her praise, Su Bai gripped the umbrella ribs with a slightly excited clench, but maintained a calm and composed expression: "Is it pretty?"

He knew Lin Zhao liked strong colors, but for some reason he didn't want to wear red, so he had prepared these little tricks long ago.

This action had a different meaning in Lin Zhao's ears.

Lin Zhao looked at the young man in front of her with a complicated expression. She knew that this young man must have gone through a lot to help the Lin family, otherwise he wouldn't be so good at doing things in a way that pleases others.

It seems that this child must have had a very hard life while I was away.

"Don't worry, your sister is back. You won't have to be so careful anymore." Lin Zhao reached out to pat the other person's shoulder, but because she was only up to the other person's chin, she couldn't give a head pat like when they were little, so she patted the other person's arm instead.

Su Bai looked at the clothes he had carefully selected over a long period of time and slapped them repeatedly, leaving them in a complete mess: "..."

Watching the clueless girl walk towards the lobby, he sighed softly and muttered to himself, "Judging from this, I'm starting to believe that you only wanted an explanation for those three days and three nights and had no feelings for her."

After saying that, he quickly followed Lin Zhao.

The two of them approached the crowd and immediately attracted the attention of most of the family.

"It's the young master and Young Master Su Bai!"

No matter how bad Lin Zhao's reputation is now, she is still the only child of the Lin family head with cultivation talent and born with the Phoenix Luck. Su Bai, on the other hand, is mysterious and even more difficult to offend.

It is said that even the patriarch and the eldest elder show some respect to Young Master Su Bai.

Logically speaking, based on this reasoning, his identity would no longer bring him any benefits in the Lin family. However, Su Bai still appears at the Lin family from time to time. Although no one knows why, they naturally welcome such a person to appear in the Lin family.

Especially the young women of marriageable age in the Lin family's main hall looked at Su Bai with such tenderness that it seemed like they could be pinched to melt their hearts.

They then noticed that Su Bai, who usually didn't appear in public, was following behind the Third Miss.

Before anyone else could make a move, a strikingly beautiful girl in red with a high ponytail strode up to Lin Zhao: "Third sister is here? Could it be that you also know that the family is offering a spot at the South China Sea Academy as the top prize in this family election, and you want to compete for it?"

She coldly swept her gaze over Lin Zhao, her eyes filled with undeniable jealousy. She had long admired Su Bai, but Su Bai, though seemingly approachable, was actually cold and aloof. Many outstanding young women in the clan had tried to win his favor, but Lin Yi had tried everything she could without getting a single special treatment from him.

But as soon as Lin Zhao returned, Su Bai followed her there. What did that mean? Even if Lin Yi didn't want to think about it, she had to admit it.

The relationship between these two is so good that it doesn't seem like that of god-siblings.

Lin Zhao was also astonished upon hearing this. She hadn't expected her father and mother to be so quick, managing to use the spot as a reward for the clan competition, which required young people under the age of twenty to participate.

From this perspective, Lin Zhao wasn't entirely without confidence.

As for Lin Yi's hostility towards her, Lin Zhao could only say that this was truly an undeserved disaster.

"That's certainly the idea," Lin Zhao nodded, not denying his own thoughts.

Upon hearing this, Lin Yi sneered, "With only the cultivation level of the third young lady in the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment, she is far from enough in the family, and I'm afraid she will not be able to achieve her wish."
