Fairy, I'm going to control you tightly!

Ji Nanbei knew that saying anything at this point would be superfluous.

She just needed a listener and needed to vent her emotions.

At this moment, Ji Nanbei only needs to act as a pillow that can listen, has warmth, and can be leaned on.

For a very long time.

Lin Mengxi finally calmed down.

Ji Nanbei released her.

At this moment, Lin Mengxi truly felt somewhat embarrassed.

She had never told anyone about these things, let alone shared her own thoughts.

All of it is piled up deep inside my heart.

Now that I've said it, it's certainly easier to say.

Lin Mengxi simply didn't know how to face her junior brother.

"Senior sister."

When called, Lin Mengxi subconsciously looked up.

Their gazes met in the north and south.

Ji Nanbei continued:

"You're just an ordinary cultivator, not some cursed lone star, and you won't cause the deaths of those around you. From now on, at least I'll be by your side. You won't die, and you won't need to risk your life to save me."

Everything Ji Nanbei said was self-evident.

There are those with a "lone star" physique in the cultivation world, but it's definitely not Lin Mengxi.

Those were just two accidents.

However, Ji Nanbei spoke of these obvious things with unusual seriousness.

Because Ji Nanbei knew that this was Lin Mengxi's unresolved issue.

She has a deep-seated emotional knot that she finds difficult to untie.

There needs to be someone who can tell her, "It's not your fault."

The effect of the Soul-Communicating Talisman has almost reached its limit.

Lin Mengxi's mind has also returned to clarity.

Speaking of which, Ji Nanbei didn't see the follow-up to what happened when Lin Mengxi was a child.

However, Ji Nanbei still managed to guess a thing or two.

Although it was Master Cheng Ling'er who saved Lin Mengxi...

However, at least when the snake demon attacked, Cheng Ling'er's master should not have appeared yet.

In other words, Lin Mengxi, being a mortal, had been locked in a stalemate with the snake demon who could speak human language for some time until she met Cheng Ling'er's master.

Judging from the points where her memory breaks down, Lin Mengxi should have fallen into a state of mental confusion, where she only knew how to kill.

Lin Mengxi has a special constitution, that much is undeniable.

Once the physical constitution takes effect, the person will lose their rationality, but their combat power will increase exponentially.

However, there are also side effects.

Just like now.

After falling into this state of fighting, Lin Mengxi's mind drifted into memories.

He might be unable to wake up from his own mental block for a long time.

It seems that only the Soul-Connecting Talisman had a restorative effect, allowing Lin Mengxi's spirit to gradually recover and her condition to improve.

In fact, Ji Nanbei helped Lin Mengxi resolve this inner conflict.

This is what helps Lin Mengxi the most.

With this knot in her heart that had been dormant for countless years gone, Lin Mengxi would no longer be trapped in memories and unable to extricate herself.

That's true, at least until the next knot in your heart appears.

When Ji Nanbei woke up, he found that his senior sister had woken up before him.

She was looking at herself, rubbing her chin, as if she was thinking about something.

"Senior sister, what are you thinking about?"

"I'm considering whether to kill him to cover my tracks and bury the body in the mountains."

Ji Nanbei's lips twitched.

However, Ji Nanbei also knew that his senior sister was currently somewhat socially awkward.

after all

Right.

My junior brother found out my deepest secrets.

That's really weird!

Ji Nanbei decided to temporarily refrain from teasing the socially awkward senior sister and changed the subject, saying:

"Senior sister, I wasn't able to kill all those people from the Golden Crimson Sect. The leader of those bastards, named Li Liangcai, is dead, but three others survived."

When Lin Mengxi got down to business, she dropped her awkward expression and nodded.

She understood what Ji Nanbei was saying.

The only question is how to resolve the subsequent troubles now that the two have killed members of the Golden Crimson Sect.

There's nothing much going on in the short term.

The two of them returned to the Sanhua Demon Sect.

The Sanhua Demon Sect is located deep in the mountains, in the entire Southern Barbarian Mountain Range.

Apart from the cities where demons gather and the territories of the demon race, there are only dense forests and mountains, making it extremely difficult to find.

It has to be said that the location of the Sanhua Demon Sect is really hard for enemies to find.

Although the Golden Crimson Sect was powerful, it was impossible for them to send disciples to search the entire Southern Barbarian region.

However, Ji Nanbei still needs to go to the World Competition afterward.

At that time, with all nine gates present, they were bound to run into the Golden Crimson Gate.

"Actually, you don't need to worry so much. During the Cultivation World Grand Competition, the Golden Crimson Sect would never dare to tamper with things, after all, they have no standing."

Ji Nanbei nodded upon hearing this.

Come to think of it.

The Golden Crimson Sect intercepted and killed rogue cultivators of the demonic path to seize their profits.

Jin Chimen absolutely did not want to bring this matter to the forefront.

That would incite hatred throughout the entire demonic path.

The demonic path isn't weak; no matter what, they have the powerful Moon Worshiping Demonic Sect to back them up.

Therefore, even though the Golden Crimson Sect suffered a loss, they would never dare to break off relations in a grand occasion like the Cultivation World Competition.

When the cultivation world competition ends, all you need to do is leave with the demonic path group.

Once they returned to the Southern Barbarian lands and disappeared into the deep mountains, even the Golden Crimson Gate couldn't do anything about them.

Ultimately, the reason why the Golden Crimson Sect can be so arrogant is that they don't openly engage in assassinations.

The downside is that even if you suffer a loss, you can't retaliate in a grand and public manner.

"Heh, speaking of which, it's quite a coincidence. The Golden Crimson Sect was one of the two sects your senior brother initially wanted to kill. In that case, even without this incident, they would have been enemies long ago."

Lin Mengxi suddenly sneered.

The grudge against Jin Chimen must have been remembered.

Ji Nanbei wasn't too surprised.

There are only a few of the Nine Gates, so it's a coincidence, but it's still understandable.

"Is the Golden Crimson Gate very strong?"

Suddenly, Ji Nanbei asked this question.

Lin Mengxi was taken aback for a moment, then chuckled softly.

"One of the Nine Gates, with several Nascent Soul cultivators stationed within, and countless others at the Core Formation stage. There may or may not be any old monsters at the Void Returning stage."

The Nascent Soul stage is practically the pinnacle of combat power in the cultivation world today.

The realm of Returning to Emptiness grants a very long lifespan; if one truly lives to the fullest, one might live for millions of years.

One seclusion can last for several eras.

Countless young talents and geniuses have been worn down and died out in this process.

Therefore, whether the Golden Crimson Sect has a Void Returning Ancestor is something that will probably only be known when the Golden Crimson Sect is about to be destroyed.

After learning about the strength of the Golden Crimson Sect, Ji Nanbei silently made a mental note of it.

One day, I'll have to find a way to wipe out his entire family.

After chatting for a while, the two decided to return to the Sanhua Demon Sect.

At this moment, Lin Mengxi stood up and finally realized the problem.

Because of her severe previous injuries, Lin Mengxi's precious clothes were now in a terrible state.

The scene, once standing up, is somewhat inappropriate for children.

Ji Nanbei hadn't noticed the problem before.

Because Lin Mengxi was covered in blood and had wounds all over her body, so you couldn't see anything.

By this time, Lin Mengxi's injuries had all healed.

Both of them were taken aback.

Then Lin Mengxi quickly took out a long robe from her storage ring and put it on.

His pupils trembled, and his face flushed instantly.

Ji Nanbei: ?

This left Ji Nanbei even more stunned.

After all, my senior sister had been making a lot of suggestive remarks before, driving around every day and encouraging people to go to places of ill repute.

They also said some strange things.

just now…

Lin Mengxi was truly numb.

He used to talk nonsense, but now he's getting his comeuppance.

She never imagined that one day she would end up like this.

He was so embarrassed in front of his junior brother...
