Where is the righteous fairy we were promised?

The shame she felt during this mission was even greater than during the last one!

Almost the instant she received the strategy guide, Yang Wanyin angrily cursed in her mind:

"System, who gave you permission to assign me tasks without my consent?!"

Faced with Yang Wanyin's questioning, the system's response remained as emotionless as ever.

Whether or not new strategy missions are released is not determined by the host's subjective will; please do not indulge in unfounded fantasies.

"you……"

The system's blunt answer only fueled Yang Wanyin's anger.

"I am your master. Do you think I can't even decide whether to issue a mission?"

【Yes. 】

"System, I command you! Now! Immediately! Get out of my body!"

[Once the system binds to the host, the bond with the target's fate will remain indelible for life. The host is advised to adopt a proper attitude and avoid any confrontational behavior.]

"I don't want to have anything to do with that damned man!"

[The target character is already bound and cannot be changed.]

"This is unreasonable!!"

Yang Wanyin was furious. Her eyebrows were raised, her teeth were clenched, and she looked as if she was about to erupt like a volcano.

Unsurprisingly, Chu Xinyue noticed her emotional change at this moment.

Chu Xinyue was someone who was extremely good at observing all kinds of details.

Not to mention, given the close relationship between Yang Wanyin and her, Chu Xinyue could quickly detect any fluctuation in Yang Wanyin's emotions.

At this moment, they saw Yang Wanyin stop driving the flying sword and the change in expression on her pretty face.

Chu Xinyue's heart sank, thinking something had happened, and she immediately transmitted her voice:

"Wanyin, what's wrong?"

Hearing Chu Xinyue's voice transmission, which conveyed both concern and worry, Yang Wanyin's expression stiffened slightly.

She immediately realized that, in her intense anger, she had ultimately failed to restrain herself.

This led to a clue being revealed to Chu Xinyue.

"No...it's okay."

Yang Wanyin turned her head slightly stiffly and forced a smile at Chu Xinyue.

"I just felt... that woman was so disrespectful to Sister Xinyue, I was really angry, and... and..."

Yang Wanyin originally intended to repeat her performance from the previous period.

When things don't look right, try to change the subject and dispel Chu Xinyue's suspicions.

The strategy tasks issued by the system seem to all have time limits!

Having learned a painful lesson from the previous mission where we failed more than a dozen times, we are now prepared for the challenge.

Yang Wanyin now harbors deep vigilance towards the phrase "mission deadline".

Sure enough, during her telepathic communication with Chu Xinyue, the familiar system notification arrived as scheduled.

[Please note, host, the mission time limit is one hour.]

If the task is not completed within one hour, it will be considered a failure.

Please complete the task as soon as possible to receive the reward.

Yang Wanyin was secretly annoyed that the system was so heartless and was a complete swindler of its master's innate spiritual treasure.

But on the surface, Yang Wanyin still controlled her expression.

And he quickly thought in his mind, trying to come up with an excuse to justify his next move.

"Let's not talk about this for now."

Yang Wanyin decisively cut off the previous topic, skillfully using a topic-shifting technique that wasn't particularly clever, and transmitted her voice:

"Sister Xinyue, I need your help with something, is that alright?"

Chu Xinyue frowned slightly, sensing that Yang Wanyin seemed to have suddenly become anxious.

However, she still asked calmly:

"What is it? Tell me first."

Yang Wanyin subconsciously glanced back at Lin Wanqing, then took a few deep breaths and said solemnly:

"Sister Xinyue, let's work together to defeat this woman first."

Then, I want to discuss some very important matters with Jiang Ning... who is also her Daoist partner, alone.

This won't take too long, if all goes well...

It should be over in about the time it takes for an incense stick to burn.

Upon hearing this, Chu Xinyue's expression did not change much.

She simply gave Yang Wanyin a deep look, without asking why.

Instead, after thinking for a while, he calmly asked:

"What if it doesn't go smoothly?"

Yang Wanyin's expression froze upon hearing this.

Feeling Chu Xinyue's deep gaze, which seemed to see right through her, Yang Wanyin couldn't help but turn her head slightly, feeling a little embarrassed to meet her eyes.

"If things don't go smoothly... it might take more than an incense stick's time."

Chu Xinyue gave a soft "hmm" and briefly communicated with Yang Wanyin telepathically.

"how long will it takes?"

"I don't know, but it's no less than the length of an incense stick per session."

"Do you know that person?"

"We're not very familiar with each other, but I need his cooperation on some things."

"Can you handle this?"

"Not necessarily, but I'll try my best to succeed this time."

Chu Xinyue paused for a moment, then calmly said:

"If you encounter danger, always remember to protect yourself. Never try to tough it out. Got it?"

"Yeah, I remember."

Yang Wanyin nodded quickly, her heart filled with gratitude.

Throughout the entire process, Chu Xinyue showed no intention of pressing her for answers.

As long as it's something she wants to do, and it's not something immoral or unethical, Chu Xinyue will trust her and try her best to meet her requests.

As for the cause and effect, the two sisters can explain it slowly after the incident is over.

But at this moment, Chu Xinyue wouldn't waste time asking for the reason.

"Alright, then let's defeat her."

Chu Xinyue took Yang Wanyin's small hand and, with very subtle movements, handed her several bottles of high-grade pills to enhance her combat power, instructing her:

"Don't be reckless, and don't have extreme thoughts."

If you're looking for revenge against that one person, I can promise you I won't get involved.

However, you need to assure me of your safety.

Chu Xinyue's words were tantamount to making it clear.

Yang Wanyin was even more shocked.

But then, Yang Wanyin couldn't help but let out a bitter smile.

"As expected, I couldn't hide it from Sister Xinyue."

With a sigh in her heart, Yang Wanyin nodded vigorously.

"I promise."

123-Hero Saves the Beauty

Lin Wanqing was in a very bad mood at the moment.

It wasn't just because she suddenly encountered Yang Wanyin, who could potentially become her love rival, here.

Furthermore, Yang Wanyin and Chu Xinyue were clearly about to leave just now...

But in the blink of an eye, these two women, who were in no way inferior to her, were now confronting her again.

This made Lin Wanqing extremely irritated.

"I'll say it one last time, this road is blocked."

Lin Wanqing held a talisman in one hand and a Water Soul Mirror in the other, and said coldly.

"Fellow Daoist, you misunderstand. We have no intention of forcing our way in."

Chu Xinyue stood with her sword on her foot, her expression calm as she said:

"We just wanted to see what you two, the Daoist couple, could do."

After saying that, Chu Xinyue took the guqin from behind her.

Those fair, jade-like hands gently rested on the strings of the ancient zither that floated in front of her.

The next moment, the simple and unadorned seven-stringed zither began to emit a soft glow.

At the same time, Chu Xinyue exuded the powerful aura of a Foundation Establishment stage cultivator.

A spiritual pressure no less powerful than Lin Wanqing's began to slowly emanate from her.
