After the yandere fairies were reborn, they all wanted to possess me!

Thirty miles west of Qingyun City lies Black Wind Ravine.

This is a deep canyon located between two barren mountains. It is named so because a cold wind blows back from the bottom of the ravine all year round, making the valley whistle.

按照游戏设定，这里是10-15级区域，刷新「铁背狼」（lv12）、「腐毒鼠」（lv10）、「阴风蛇」（lv15）等低阶妖兽。

This is a small challenge for players who have just left the starting village.

Su Chen stood at the mouth of the ravine, looking into the dark, deep passage that seemed to swallow up light, and took a deep breath.

"Phew... Calm down."

"I have a concealment talisman. As long as I don't provoke them, the probability of monsters discovering me is very low."

"The Mysterious Yin Grass grows in a shady crevice on the east side of the ravine... I remember the route very clearly."

"Take what you need and leave; never be greedy."

He silently recited the key points of the operation in his mind, while taking out a "concealment talisman" from the system space.

The yellow talisman paper felt slightly cool to the touch. The patterns drawn on it with cinnabar shimmered faintly in the sunlight.

"use."

Su Chen silently recited in his heart.

The next second, the talisman spontaneously combusted without wind, turning into a wisp of green smoke that wrapped around his body.

A subtle sense of "isolation" instantly enveloped my entire body.

It was as if the whole person was wrapped in a transparent film, and even the sound of breathing and footsteps became barely audible.

"This is the effect of the invisibility talisman..."

Su Chen raised his hand and looked at his palm. To the naked eye, there was no change, but he could feel that his "presence" had indeed been greatly weakened.

If a low-level cultivator were to scan this area with their divine sense, they would most likely overlook it unless they specifically and carefully investigated it.

That's enough.

Without further hesitation, he stepped into Black Wind Ravine.

The ravine was dimly lit, with towering cliffs on both sides, leaving only a narrow sliver of sky overhead.

A cold wind blew in from deep within, carrying the smell of damp earth and a faint fishy odor.

Su Chen held his breath, pressed himself against the cliff face, and carefully moved deeper into the cliff.

The footsteps made a very slight "rustling" sound as they stepped on the gravel and fallen leaves.

Along the way, he saw many traces of monster activity: gnawed animal bones, dried bloodstains, and huge claw marks.

Fortunately, they didn't run into any living creature head-on.

Occasionally, a few carrion rats would peek out from the cracks in the rocks, their tiny, beady eyes scanning the surroundings blankly. Their noses twitched, as if they had smelled the scent of strangers but couldn't find the source, and in the end, they could only retreat back in dejectedly.

"Concealment talisman... awesome!"

Su Chen breathed a sigh of relief and quickened his pace.

Following the route he remembered, he turned several corners, passed through a pile of rocks, and suddenly the view opened up before him.

We've reached the bottom of the ravine.

This area is much wider than the passageway, about half the size of a football field.

The ground was slippery and covered with moss.

Sure enough, at the bottom of the cliff on the east side, there was a narrow crevice in the rock, through which several plants emitting a faint glow could be vaguely seen.

Mysterious Yin Grass!

Su Chen's eyes lit up, and he quickly walked over.

He crouched down and examined it carefully.

Three strange little grasses grew in the cracks of the rocks, their bodies completely black except for the silvery edges of their leaves.

Each plant has only three leaves, which are thick and covered with fine dewdrops.

It is indeed Xuan Yin Grass! And the quality is quite good!

"One plant is enough. There's no need to pick them all. Leave some roots and stems; they might grow back later..."

Su Chen reached out and carefully picked the outermost plant.

Just touched the leaf—

[System Prompt]

[Resource detected: 'Mystic Yin Grass' (Common Grade, Peak)]

This elixir can be used in conjunction with the "Marrow Cleansing Pill" to enhance the spiritual root cleansing effect.

[Get it?]

【whether】

"Yes."

Su Chen muttered a word to himself, then used force to uproot the Xuan Yin Grass.

The black roots, covered in damp soil, exuded a faint, chilly aura.

Here it is!

His heart pounded, and he immediately stored the Xuan Yin Grass into his system space.

Then... he turned and ran!

Don't stay here for long!

But just as he had run less than ten steps—

"roar--!!!"

A deafening roar suddenly exploded from the depths of the ravine!

Immediately following was the sound of heavy, rapid running!

"Thump! Thump! Thump!"

The ground was trembling slightly!

Su Chen's face turned deathly pale instantly.

This commotion... could definitely not have been caused by an Ironback Wolf or a Carrion Rat!

At least... elite monsters level 20 and above!

"Damn! How did we disturb something like this?!"

He didn't have time to think and ran wildly towards the mouth of the stream!

The concealment talisman was still working, but he had no idea whether he could hide from a demonic beast of this rank!

"roar!!!"

The roar was getting closer and closer!

Su Chen could even smell the nauseating stench coming from behind him!

He dared not look back, he could only run for his life!

They were about to reach the ravine passage—

"Whoosh!"

A dark shadow pounced from the side with terrifying speed!

Su Chen caught a glimpse of it out of the corner of his eye... It was a giant wolf that was completely black, over two meters tall at the shoulder, and had scarlet eyes!

"Shadow Wolf! Level 25 Elite Monster!"

Game memories instantly popped into my head!

How did this thing end up in Blackwind Ravine?! Isn't it supposed to spawn in level 20 areas?!

Finished!

The late emperor passed away before completing his great undertaking!

Su Chen felt a chill in his heart.

With his current physical condition, he simply can't outrun this beast!

The gleaming claws were about to strike his back!

hum-

A clear, sharp sword cry resounded throughout the entire Black Wind Ravine without warning!

Time... seemed to stand still at that moment.

The Shadow Wolf, which was pouncing in mid-air, suddenly froze!

Its scarlet eyes were instantly filled with boundless fear!

next second.

"Pfft!"

A soft sound.

The Shadow Wolf's massive body was neatly split in two from the middle.

The cut is as smooth as a mirror.

Before the internal organs and blood could even splatter out, they were frozen into ice shards by an extremely cold force, which then fell to the ground with a clatter.

Su Chen remained frozen in place, still in his forward-leaning posture.

He stared blankly at the wolf corpse in front of him, which had been instantly killed but was still in a pouncing posture.

He slowly raised his head again.

Look forward.

At the mouth of the ravine, a figure appeared out of nowhere...

Petite. Pure white. Silver hair like snow.

She was facing away from the faint light streaming into the cave, her face hidden in shadow and indistinct.

Only those deep blue eyes... shone brilliantly in the darkness.

She stood there quietly, holding a long sword in her hand that was entirely crystalline, as if formed from solidified ice. The tip of the sword pointed diagonally at the ground, without a trace of blood.

But the temperature in the entire Black Wind Ravine... had plummeted to freezing point.

Even the moisture in the air condensed into tiny ice crystals, which fluttered down.

Su Chen opened his mouth.

But no sound came out of his throat.

There was only one thought in my mind!

woc!

Ling...Qian...Xue?!

What is she doing here?!

According to the game's storyline, this future Supreme Elder of the Qingyun Sect should still be in seclusion on his Snow Moon Peak at this moment!

She won't be alerted until at least the introductory trial is over and the protagonist is found to have a "hidden celestial spiritual root" (after completing a series of tasks), at which point she will appear to take on a disciple!

Now...it's appeared several months early?!

and……

The way she looked at herself...

Su Chen met those deep blue eyes.

That's not the way you look at a stranger!

Restraint! Burning passion! Obsession! Possessiveness!

Su Chen was startled and subconsciously called out the name he used in the game.

"Master, Master..."

As soon as the words left his mouth, he wanted to slap himself.

Damn it! I haven't even formally become an apprentice yet! What are you calling me, Master?!

Upon hearing those two words, Ling Qianxue's body... trembled almost imperceptibly.

Although it was only for a moment.

But Su Chen caught it.

then……

He saw the high and mighty Snow Moon Fairy slowly raise her hand.

It's not the hand that's holding the sword.

It was another hand... fair and slender, as if carved from jade.

She waved to him.

The movements were very gentle.

It's like calling out to... their lost puppy.

"come over."

Ling Qianxue spoke.

The voice was very soft and faint, revealing no emotion.

But Su Chen only felt... a chill that shot from the soles of his feet straight to the top of his head!

Something is wrong!

Something's not right!!!

That's not how corner games work!

He wanted to run away.

But my legs... won't obey me.

My body felt frozen by an invisible chill; I couldn't even move a finger.

In the end, he could only watch helplessly as Ling Qianxue... walked towards him step by step.

Barefoot on the icy ground, they made soft "crack...crack..." sounds.

Every step felt like it was stepping on his heart.

at last.

Ling Qianxue stopped in front of him.

They were so close that Su Chen could smell her cool, snow-like scent, yet with a faint lotus fragrance.

You can see every inch of her face with skin so smooth that you can't even see the pores.

And...those deep blue eyes, so close, as if they could suck your soul in.

Ling Qianxue looked up; she was more than half a head shorter than Su Chen, so she had to look up to meet his gaze.

then……

She reached out her hand.

Gently... he stroked Su Chen's cheek.

"I've found you."

Ling Qianxue said softly.

"mine……"

"Chen'er".
