The entire sect is obsessed with love, but I'm the only one who's truly insane.

In no time at all, Cui Yujun revealed everything about her life before and after her time travel.

A college student, not yet twenty years old, loved by his parents, with a happy family, grew up in a sweet environment. He loved reading novels and stayed up all night until morning. Suddenly, he suffered a heart attack and died, and that's how he was transmigrated.

"There are no games, no computers, no chips, no cola, no cake, nothing... I miss my mom's braised noodles."

After Cui Yujun finished speaking, she realized that Lin Du had not mentioned her own situation at all. It wasn't that she hadn't mentioned anything, but she had only replied that she was already in her twenties when she transmigrated, and was a bit older than Cui Yujun.

She wore a faint smile on her face, listening to her younger sister's rambling like an intellectual older sister. Her responses were merely to prove that she was listening. Although she was very close, sitting right next to her, it felt like she was very far away.

Lin Du was clearly younger than her, yet she sat casually on the protruding rock, looking at her as she spoke, but her gaze seemed to be looking through her to see something.

Lin Du's presence in the original text is minimal, mentioned only briefly. He is described as a genius with a frail body who never appears in public.

It wasn't until the day of the Central Plains Grand Competition, when she saw Lin Du calmly break through the situation from the stands, that she truly realized just how amazing this seemingly insignificant background figure was.

And such a person comes from the same world as her, and is the kind of person she aspires to be.

If Xia Tianwu is considered the original choice, then Lin Du can be considered a later riser.

Lin Du was pondering the information revealed in Cui Yujun's words. Judging from her demeanor and personality when she spoke to him, she did indeed seem like a college student, exuding a clear and straightforward manner, which should make her seem trustworthy.

"That day, during the Golden Core tribulation, was it a system-issued task for you to block it?"

"No, that's not it. That day, during the Golden Core tribulation, Wu Xi was supposed to form her core smoothly, but who would have thought that the tribulation wasn't over yet and that the bastard was almost dead? I thought that if I pounced on him, I could make a clean getaway, but I didn't expect that I would actually survive."

Lin Du sighed, "Then you're quite difficult to kill."

An outsider intruding during the Golden Core Tribulation is against the laws of Heaven and will cause double the tribulation. She endured it all by herself and still survived, which shows how difficult it is to kill her.

As she spoke, she asked the system in her consciousness, "What do you think?"

Without any rhyme or reasoning, and without any personal speculation, it was clearly waiting for the system to reveal more information.

The system says it looks terrible.

The more you say, the more mistakes you make. If you only pull out a thread, Lin Du can peel away the whole cocoon.

But this is something that definitely needs to be addressed.

The White Moonlight System is definitely not a legitimate system.

"Then how about sending her back to the modern era?"

It might be fake, but I don't believe it.

"What if I send her back to the modern world?"

【……you?】

"Is there any difference between you and me?"

"Get to the point. We can talk about anything else later. The flowers are almost in bloom."

I'll give it a try. Ultimately, she shouldn't have been here; it was an accident.

"Am I not an accident?"

We'll talk about anything else later; the flowers will be in bloom soon.

Lin Du: ...Using my own spear against my own shield, is that it?

"You know what's going to happen today, right?" Cui Yujun asked softly. She always felt that Lin Du seemed too calm and rational.

Lin Du nodded. "Your task today is to ward off snake venom?"

"Yes, the system said that after I complete the storyline, I can retire successfully."

"I won't get to see the whole 'wife-chasing-after-the-cremation' thing anymore. Why don't you, sister, talk to your daughter and tell her not to forgive him, just send her straight to the crematorium? I only read novels for the thrill, but now that I'm seeing it in real life, she'll feel the pain too, right?"

Cui Yujun suddenly seemed dazed, her voice trembling, "Actually... Sister Lin Du..."

"Um?"

"I'm also a little afraid of pain."

Lin Du avoided her always watery eyes, raised his hand and patted the back of her head, his thick black eyelashes drooping, the faint smile on his face unchanged.

"Then don't feel pain," she said softly.

"But I don't feel pain. The system always finds a way to make me feel pain. He said that if I don't do it, I will be punished, my soul will be scattered, and someone else will take my place."

Cui Yujun looked somewhat dazed. "Sister, don't you have a system?"

Lin Du smiled. "I don't have it, and I can make you not have it too."

"Xiaodu, did you hear me?"

[Ding, Side Quest Two: Eliminate the illegal system and find the mastermind behind it. Reward: Snow Essence Pill. It might be harmful to others, but it's very suitable for your constitution and has miraculous effects on your entire body.]

"Can Cui Yujun still go back?"

Didn't Master Wei Zhi once say... that only power comparable to the Heavenly Dao can break through the two realms? Did you know that the Heavenly Dao's abilities also vary in strength?

Lin Du remained completely unmoved. "I guessed it."

She glanced at Cui Yujun, remembering the punishment she'd mentioned—the punishment of having one's soul scattered. "Xiaodu, what do you think that system on the other side is? Is there any way to temporarily free her from it?"

I can help with temporary isolation, but it can't prevent infection for too long.

The system seemed hesitant to speak, as if it had made a great decision.

"OK."

Lin Du's cool fingers silently touched Cui Yujun's forehead as he slowly probed into her with his divine sense.

Sure enough, this person's mind was unusual.

The system quickly took over Lin Du's consciousness and then swiftly severed the connection Lin Du had made with his divine sense.

"Okay, let's not feel the pain today."

Ignoring the system's subtle attempts to keep her in the dark, Lin Du smiled and withdrew her hand, saying, "We'll talk about it later."

The metallic clanging at the bottom of the cliff grew more rapid, and the spiritual energy, no longer a wisp, rose in waves. The crowd became slightly restless, and many people were already preparing to descend the cliff.

Descending the cliff is difficult, and there is no way to use flying artifacts. There are many unknown dangers below, and it is very easy to get into trouble if you go down rashly without any support. Even cultivators at the Cloud Soaring Realm dare not be reckless and only dare to use climbing ropes.

Many people had already driven in nails and were carefully descending the cliff face. Looking down from the top of the cliff, they looked like many small spiders caught on thin spider silk.

Lin Du stood up, glanced at the rope, and said, "It's a diamond rope; it can't be cut."

Some people went down, while others were above to meet them.

The tone was somewhat regretful.

Wu Xi stayed by her side the whole time, her teeth practically grinding to powder.

He couldn't hear what Lin Du and Cui Yujun were saying, but he could see Cui Yujun smiling and tugging at Lin Du's sleeve, and he could also see Lin Du patting Cui Yujun's head.

He has never touched Senior Sister Yu Jun with a single finger. Just because they are both women doesn't mean they can be this intimate!

"Junior Uncle, aren't we going to drive in nails?" Yan Qing asked, getting restless as he watched everyone moving around.

"Alright, go ahead. No need to argue. Let's leave it hanging over there and focus on a surprise attack."

Lin Du stretched his body. "No rush, the flowers will be ripe in another fifteen minutes."

She counted them; the flower had multiple layers, and each layer opened one by one. Each time a layer opened, there was a surge of energy. Only three waves of energy fluctuations had passed so far, indicating that it hadn't fully opened yet. Picking it at this time would be useless.

Xia Tian suddenly had a bad feeling. "...Junior Uncle, you're not going to go down without using tools, are you?"

Lin Du chuckled, "How could that be?"

Xia Tian was somewhat suspicious, but Yan Qing had already laid down her plan, so she temporarily put aside her thoughts and quietly helped him.

Lin Du stood aside and began to explore the formation, intending to reinforce the integrity of the rocks and nails on the cliff.

Only then did Wu Xi have time to say a word to Cui Yujun, as he was already preparing to descend the cliff.

"Senior sister, don't worry, I will definitely get the Ink Frost Mystic Flower for you so that you can return to the path of immortality."

The young man's eyes were bright and determined, even though they were in a bottomless abyss where few people dared to approach, and even though many people were vying for his attention.

Cui Yujun hesitated, her eyes filled with worry and a strange excitement, "You... be careful."

Wu Xi and Yan Qing were quick and agile, and began to descend rapidly along the rope. Occasionally, they would touch the wall with their toes, but only to check the environment below.

"Junior Uncle... I'm inside the miasma, and it's hard for my divine sense to detect anything unusual."

The disciple's token transmitted Yan Qing's voice intermittently, "But... below is the Flying Rock Fox clan, densely packed, covering the entire space. The sound of their wings rubbing together is like metal striking stone, making it difficult to pass directly. I don't know what's below, it's very dark. The flowers are about to ripen. Someone seems to have rushed through. Should I go?"

"No need, just wait for me a little further up," Lin Du said.

Summer doesn't feel right.

Lin Du stood on the edge of the cliff, timed it perfectly, and jumped down without any fluctuation of spiritual energy around him.

Cultivators at the Cloud Soaring Realm can fly without the aid of external objects, but they still need to use spiritual power.

"Lin Du! Is this what you mean by not knowing how to use tools?!?"

"Sure, I'll use Yan Qing as a tool!"
