Why are you crying when I've severed ties? The fake heiress is leading a new sect to new height

Chapter 1 Detachment from Emotions
"Who is this? What terrible crime has he committed that has landed him in solitary confinement?"

"Shen Sangruo, the fake daughter of Sect Leader Shen, I heard that she was jealous of Bai Mumu, the biological daughter that Sect Leader had only recently found, and deliberately pushed Bai Mumu down the valley."

"Ah, Junior Sister Bai's health is so poor, how serious must her injuries be? How could she be so cruel!"

"She still refused to admit it, so Master Lingxiao got very angry and threw her into this confinement room."

"This confinement room is equipped with a powerful array. Even a Nascent Soul cultivator with a firm mind would be tormented to the point of mental confusion after a few days. Hmph, serves him right!"

"Shh, stop talking, someone's coming."

The door to the confinement room was opened, and a beam of light shone on the terrified girl inside.

Shen Sangruo was only at the mid-stage of Foundation Establishment, and after spending just one day in the confinement room, her spirit was almost broken.

His bloodshot eyes saw the door open and, like parched land receiving rain, saw a glimmer of hope.

Was it her second senior brother who came to pick her up?!

"Second Senior Brother, it really wasn't me..."

Her words of defense caught in her throat. After seeing who it was, a hint of fear appeared in her eyes.

"Third, Third Senior Brother..."

Shen Sangruo watched as Lu Shiqing, with his cold and stern expression, slowly squatted down and extended his hand with distinct knuckles to her.

She instinctively shrank back, her fear deepening in her eyes.

How could it be Lu Shiqing?

Her greatest fear was Lu Shiqing.

"Are you afraid of Third Senior Brother?" Lu Shiqing was backlit, so Shen Sangri couldn't see the expression on his face.

All she could hear was his cold voice saying to her, "Third Senior Brother will take you out."

Thinking of the torture she had suffered in the dark confinement room, Shen Sangruo couldn't care less about anything else; all she wanted now was to get out.

Even if she was punished by Lu Shiqing after leaving, she hardened her heart and grabbed Lu Shiqing's outstretched hand.

Unexpectedly, a Gu worm appeared in Lu Shiqing's palm and burrowed into her skin the moment she grasped his hand!
The next moment, the familiar, excruciating pain caused Shen Sangruo to suddenly collapse to the ground.

Lu Shiqing wiped the hand that she had held.

The voice was icy cold: "This is the Seven Emotions Gu. You can't control your emotions and possessiveness, so I will help you learn to control them."

"So that you won't become jealous and harm others later."

"I will come with my second senior brother tomorrow. If you have reflected on your mistakes and are willing to admit them, we will take you out."

After saying that, he turned and left without giving Shen Sangruo another second glance.

Those who have been infected with the Seven Emotions Gu will find that if they have even the slightest bit of emotion in their hearts, it will be like insects gnawing at their bones, making their lives worse than death.

Lu Shiqing knew that she was deeply in love with her master and senior brothers, so the Seven Emotions Gu was the best way to punish her.

Scenes from the past kept flooding my mind.

In her childhood, she was Shen Daochen's cherished daughter. As she grew older, she became a disciple of Lingxiao Zhenren, the sect's number one cultivator.

She became Lingxiao Zhenren's last disciple, and her four senior brothers doted on her.

She is happy every day.

Two years ago, a thin girl of the same age as her came to the sect, carrying a token and looking for Shen Daochen, saying that she was his daughter.

Shen Daochen then realized that he had switched his daughters back then, and quickly took Bai Mumu back.

Overnight, she became the fake heiress of the sect, and Shen Daochen said he would still treat her like his own daughter.

However, in order to compensate Bai Mumu, Shen Daochen asked Lingxiao Zhenren to make an exception and accept Bai Mumu as his disciple again.

The master and senior brothers remembered that she had replaced Bai Mumu, so they took good care of Bai Mumu.

Before she knew it, the topic of conversation among her master and senior brothers had all turned to Bai Mumu, and she could only desperately chase after them.

She tried her best to be the best in the eyes of her master and fellow disciples, but she still failed to gain their attention.

Therefore, she became even more obsessed with getting their attention and tried every means to please them.

But she was thinking of starting with herself, not targeting Bai Mumu. Bai Mumu falling into the valley had absolutely nothing to do with her.

She tried her best to explain, but none of her father, master, or senior brothers believed her.

Thinking of this, she felt a suffocating pain in her heart, as if someone were stabbing her heart with a sword, again and again.

The more unwilling Shen Sangri felt, the more severe the Seven Emotions Gu became.

The intense pain tore at Shen Sangruo's nerves. She couldn't even tell whether the confinement room was causing her more pain or Lu Shiqing's Seven Emotions Gu was causing her more pain.

She really doesn't want to anymore! She doesn't want their attention either!
Don't let her suffer anymore!

Just as Shen Sangruo felt she was about to faint, the Xuanmu in her arms emitted a burst of light.

In her daze, she heard a voice in her mind: "Alas, how pitiful."

"Young friend, if I could detach myself from your feelings for them right now, would you be willing?"

"I'm willing!" Shen Sangruo replied without hesitation.

There was no time to think about who was speaking or where they came from.

The excruciating pleasure was driving her crazy; all she wanted to do was erase those people from her mind.

But she fainted before the other party could make a move.

After an unknown amount of time, Shen Sangruo woke up again. The pain caused by the Seven Emotions Gu had disappeared, and she felt extremely relaxed.

A hint of detachment appeared in her eyes, and her heart remained calm as still water, no longer stirred by those people.

The Seven Emotions Gu did not take effect, but the array in the confinement room remained in place.

She was not sleeping soundly; she was covered in a cold sweat.

She took out the black wood from her bosom, which she had picked up casually in the valley, and unexpectedly it saved her life.

"What speaks in my mind seems to be a wisp of divine consciousness attached to the black wood."

But now the divine consciousness on the Xuanmu tree has disappeared.

The spirit also said that since he had helped her, she should go to a mountain to find him and repay his kindness.

Shen Sangruo placed the Xuanmu wood on the ground and kowtowed twice to it.

"Thank you so much for saving my life, senior. Shen Sangri will definitely find you and repay your kindness!"

She had just put away the blackwood.

With a creak, the door to the confinement cell opened.

Her second senior brother, Wen Xuan, and her third senior brother, Lu Shiqing, came into view.

Wen Xuan raised his hand and removed the array in the confinement room.

He pursed his lips and said to her, "Fifth Junior Sister, after reflecting on your mistakes for two days in the confinement room, are you willing to admit them?"

Lu Shiqing was thinking of secretly removing the Seven Emotions Gu from her body so that she wouldn't be in so much pain that she couldn't speak.

Before he could retract his voice, Shen Sangri's clear voice rang out in the confinement room.

"I shouldn't have pushed my junior sister off the valley. I admit my mistake." Her voice was calm.

They won't let her out unless she admits it.

Although he had expected it, Wen Xuan could not hide his disappointment.

"Since you've admitted your mistake, do you have any objections to using ten drops of your heart's blood to heal your junior sister?"

"No, please, Second Senior Brother, take me out. I am willing to make amends for my mistakes." She clasped her hands and bowed to Wen Xuan.

Seeing her attitude, Wen Xuan knew she was truly remorseful.

In addition, he spent two days in confinement and suffered a lot.

After all, she was his junior sister, so he softened his voice a bit: "Let's go, I'll take you to see Master."
