The villain daughter did all kinds of things

"Oh, right..."

After discussing the "Netherworld Soul Technique," the woman in red suddenly remembered something else:

"Little Ellie, the weapon you used to defeat Xinyu yesterday must have been based on the massive data stream impact theory you just mentioned, right?"

"Yes yes yes..."

Hearing this from the side, Ji Xinyu also looked at Emerald with resentment:

"What exactly is that thing, senior sister? At that moment, I felt like a huge amount of junk information was flooding into my brain, my head was about to explode, and I felt terrible."

"Haha... If you had really had a head back then, you might not have lost."

Emerald smiled and took out another can-shaped object, handing it to Red Dress and Ji Xinyu.

"This is a special disposable magical device I made. I originally intended it to guard against certain unexpected events, but I was quite surprised that it could restrain my junior sister."

“My understanding of the soul is certainly not as good as Aunt Red’s, but I have done a lot of research in this area before, and even designed a system that can preserve the soul after death and wait for the body to be rebuilt and resurrected.”

"It was in these studies that I discovered that the human brain actually has an overload protection function for the soul."

"When a person receives a large amount of information in a very short period of time, the brain will shut down and stop working in order to protect the soul from harm."

"After entering that Netherworld form, my junior sister gained an existence form that could ignore most physical attacks and extremely high mobility, but her soul also lost the protection of her brain... at least in terms of information reception, she was almost defenseless."

"...That's not Xinyu's fault."

After examining the small jar from all angles, the woman in red, with a complicated expression, tossed it back to Emerald.

"Because even I didn't expect there to be a method that directly targets the soul by instantly transmitting a large amount of junk information... Little Ellie, how did you come up with that?"

"I never intended to use this on souls... I was actually a little surprised by how well it works on spirits."

Emery smiled modestly:

"I made this thing to prevent some creation that my collaborator and I developed from going out of control."

This creation refers to Suzuran, and in addition to this data stream bomb, Emeryte has prepared several other weapons specifically for Suzuran, some of which were even developed using Suzuran.

Unfortunately, in the many science fiction works that Amelie had read in her previous life, AI rebellion was always a devastating disaster for human civilization.

Although Suzuran has always behaved very obediently, no one knows whether she has a true sense of independence or whether she can break through Emerald's control.

Of course, Emerald didn't want anything to happen to Suzuran, but precautions still had to be taken. Emerald would never think she had too many or too tiring contingency plans like these.

And so, Amelie temporarily settled in the headquarters of the Netherworld Cult in Xiangyun City, waiting for the Red-Clad One to complete the preparations so that she and Ji Xinyu could undergo the soul surgery to exchange some of their innate supernatural powers.

During the day, Amelie, led by Ji Xinyu, would wander around the vicinity of Xiangyun City and also visit those backward and barbaric tribes to watch the tribesmen hunt.

The scene of those tribesmen killing large monsters and dismembering and eating them with only spears and cooperation, without any powerful magic or weapons, was quite exciting and shocking, possessing a primitive and violent aesthetic.

Emery also secretly filmed many of these hunts from different angles, which could be used as material in the film later.

In the evening, Emery would continue reading "The Soul of the Netherworld," with Ji Xinyu providing her with spiritual power, and her reward being to tie Ji Xinyu up with an invisible ribbon and then use the ribbon as a soft whip to lash her buttocks... In any case, both of them felt they had made a huge profit.

When Amelie encountered something she didn't understand while studying at night, she would carefully write it down and humbly ask Red for help the next day, and Red would usually answer her questions patiently.

Half a month later, as a large amount of spiritual materials were sent to Xiangyun City by the Netherworld Cult, the red-clothed woman's soul surgery was finally almost ready, and Amelie also made a new breakthrough.

Based on the knowledge and theories learned in "The Soul of the Netherworld", Amelie finally completed the transformation of the invisible ribbon—now the invisible ribbon can not only interfere with reality on a physical level, but also directly affect the soul on a non-physical level.

To test this result, Amelie took Ji Xinyu for a stroll through the streets of Xiangyun City during the day, intending to randomly select a lucky person (or unlucky person) to conduct the experiment.

Soon, a young couple caught Amelie's eye. The woman in the couple was fine, but the man had the look of a young, handsome celebrity from Amelie's previous life, which made her dislike him.

There's nothing more to say, it's you I've decided on.

Meanwhile, Amelie continued to share a cotton candy with Ji Xinyu, pretending to be best friends while shopping. In reality, she manipulated an invisible ribbon to wrap around the man in the couple, binding his soul directly out of his body without causing any physical harm.

The body, devoid of its soul, was on the verge of collapse, but Emerald was a very powerful necromancer. Almost instantly, she transformed the man back into an undead, one of her unique undead that was almost indistinguishable from the living. Then she put the man's soul back into his body.

Throughout the entire process, the woman in the couple was completely unaware of anything amiss, while the man only felt a momentary daze before his body completely lost control, his soul trapped inside his own body. He watched helplessly as an unknown force manipulated his body, chatting and laughing with his girlfriend, engaging in various intimate interactions that only he should be able to do, and he felt utterly hopeless.

"Haha... Senior sister, you're so naughty~~"

Ji Xinyu noticed the young couple's situation, but didn't care at all:

"But I just love this kind of mischievous senior sister~~"

"Hmm~~"

Amelie had a lot of fun too. She teased the young couple for a while before returning control of the man's body to his original soul and letting them go.

The man felt like he had finally woken up from a nightmare. He hugged his bewildered girlfriend and cried, leaving her completely confused. This sight made Amelie and Ji Xinyu laugh again.

Afterwards, Emery and Ji Xinyu secretly observed the young couple and confirmed that the man did not show any abnormality and could live as before. Even his closest girlfriend did not notice anything unusual.

In reality, the man was already dead; his body was a ghost created by Emerald. Whenever Emerald wanted, she could turn the man into a puppet with just a thought, no matter where she was.

This result delighted Emerald; the experiment was a success—now she could create more male-like beings, scatter them throughout the world to gather intelligence for her, and they could also become her Trojan horses when needed.

"That was a great move, Senior Sister."

Ji Xinyu quickly realized this as well, and said with a smile:

"If the Tianyun Empire and your Allen Federation go to war in the future, I need to be wary of this trick of yours."

"...What? Junior sister, you're going to be wary of me?"

Emerald immediately appeared very sad:

"If the Federation and the Empire really go to war, shouldn't my junior sister be working with me from the inside?"

"Hmph, I'm not going to team up with you from the inside, Senior Sister!"

Ji Xinyu rolled her eyes, licked her lips, and once again revealed that burning desire to conquer in her eyes as she looked at Emery:

"I don't care who wins or loses between the Empire and the Federation, but this is a chance for me to defeat you, my senior sister, on the battlefield with a legitimate reason. I'm going to take you down... hehe."

"Heh... Foolish junior sister, you're daydreaming again."

Emery scoffed.

"I'm afraid that instead of capturing me, you'll just give me away for free."

"You're the one who's giving away freebies!"

Ji Xinyu was unconvinced:

"Don't think you can keep beating me... When it's my turn to be the senior sister, I'll definitely show you how I manipulate those rich young ladies! Humph!"

As the two were aimlessly strolling and chatting, they suddenly felt a jolt as they received a telepathic message from the woman in red.

Amelie and Ji Xinyu exchanged a glance, their expressions changing from lazy to serious, and returned together to the headquarters of the Netherworld Cult.

The soul surgery that can exchange for some of one's innate supernatural abilities is basically ready in Red Robe's hands. Currently, one material is still missing—the soul of a strong person. It must be a strong person at the third stage.

This is a preparation to prevent accidents during the surgery. After obtaining the soul of a powerful person, the woman in red will completely erase the original consciousness and refine the soul into pure soul power for storage. If Ji Xinyu or Ameliete's soul is damaged during the surgery, this powerful and pure soul power will be the best material for repair.

Since their safety was at stake, neither Emery nor Ji Xinyu took it lightly and both expressed their willingness to personally collect materials.

With their combined strength, they could easily take down one or two ordinary cultivators at the Enlightenment stage; the question is, who would they take down?

There are many cultivators in the Enlightenment stage of the Immortal Sect in the Tianyun Empire, many of whom are those who have reached the Enlightenment stage by simply throwing resources and pills at them... In the original game, that would be around level 100, which is almost considered trash to Amelie and Ji Xinyu now, and they can be killed with a little effort.

However, Emery doesn't dare to enter the Tianyun Kingdom's territory at all. Ji Xinyu can enter freely, but she doesn't dare to cause trouble within the empire's borders. Even if she is a princess of the royal family, she would be in big trouble if her act of harming fellow cultivators of the immortal sects were discovered.

Targeting a Dao Enlightenment stage expert from the Sakura Kingdom wouldn't be very effective either.

Because many of the conservative members of the three major families had just died, the Kingdom of Sakura now attaches great importance to its own powerful members. If any more powerful members are killed, the Tengu Shrine will definitely step in to investigate seriously.

With the methods of the Tengu Shrine, whether it's divination or regression, Emerald didn't think she could hide it... Her third uncle had just married the Queen, and it was really inappropriate for her to commit a crime.

The best approach would be to find a rogue cultivator or a small sect in the wilderness who had fled the Tianyun Empire and refused to submit to the immortal sects.

However, such independent cultivators and small sects are very well hidden and not easy to find. Moreover, even if they were found, Amelie and Ji Xinyu might not be able to defeat them easily—it is impossible for someone without real skills to escape from the management of the immortal sect.

So Amelie and Ji Xinyu were both quite conflicted for a while.

If the old lich and the red-clothed woman were willing to take action themselves, this matter would naturally be very simple. However, since the red-clothed woman entrusted this matter to Amelie and the others, it was obviously a kind of homework assignment. Who asks the teacher for help when doing homework? That's something only bad students do. With Amelie and Ji Xinyu's pride, they certainly wouldn't do it easily.

They have to find a way to solve this problem themselves.

"...Hmm, I do have a way to lure out a Dao Enlightenment stage cultivator from the Tianyun Empire, and I've wanted to kill that guy for quite a while now, so this is a good opportunity."

After a moment's thought, a cold glint flashed in Ji Xinyu's eyes first, followed by a helpless sigh:

“But if I do that, I won’t be able to fight, I won’t even be able to show my face, and I won’t be able to help secretly… Senior sister, you have to take him down by yourself.”

"Oh?"

Emery raised an eyebrow, seemingly thinking it was worth a try, and asked:

What exactly happened?

“That guy has a personal grudge against me, but his identity is not simple either. His grandfather is currently serving as the Minister of War in the Tianyun Empire, and he has a lot of real power.”

Ji Xinyu didn't hide anything either:

"That's why I can't make a move—the empire has many shrewd and calculating people. If I make a move during the battle, no matter what I do to conceal it, my identity will most likely be figured out. The Minister of War is no small official in the empire. Even if I am a princess and my father is a prince, it would be difficult to explain the murder of his grandson... Otherwise, I would have found an opportunity to kill that bastard long ago."

"...Will my identity be revealed as soon as I make a move? Am I the same?"

Emery frowned slightly.

"Yes, it can't be hidden unless we can reach the level of our master and mistress."

Ji Xinyu answered affirmatively, then smiled:

"But even if your identity is known, Senior Sister, it doesn't matter, right? Anyway, the Tianyun Empire must abide by the order set by the Dao Ancestor, and the Immortal Sect is unlikely to retaliate against you. So what's there to be afraid of? That Minister of War is just a high-ranking official; his own strength is very weak. If the Immortal Sect doesn't help, he can probably only command two or three Enlightenment stage cultivators... Even if he comes to cause trouble for Senior Sister, isn't he just sending new recruits to your undead legion?"

"Hmm...that seems to make sense. As long as I don't enter the territory of the Tianyun Empire, there's really no need to fear the retaliation of a mere Minister of War."

Amelie deliberated over Ji Xinyu's plan several times and also thought it was feasible; at least for now, there was no better way.

"Let's do it this way then."

Therefore, Emery made a decisive decision:

"But junior sister, you need to tell me the details of that man first."

"it is good."

Ji Xinyu nodded, then immediately snapped her fingers, using flames to draw a portrait of a young man in the air:

"His name is Ye Bufan, the grandson of the Minister of War. He currently serves as a vanguard general under me. He should be over thirty-five but under forty this year, the kind of mediocre genius..."

Chapter 264 Doing bad things with my scumbag junior sister

"Wait... Junior sister, please wait a moment."

Emery interrupted Ji Xinyu with a somewhat strange expression:

"Junior sister, are you saying that the person you want to kill is one of your subordinates? But I remember that the legion you command is mainly responsible for suppressing the demonic tide, right? So killing him wouldn't be difficult for you."

"...If it were as easy as you think, Senior Sister, he would have died long ago."

Ji Xinyu sighed, somewhat helplessly saying:

“I sent him on many missions with a high chance of survival, and he never hesitated. He always survived and sometimes even completed the mission, which made him very prestigious in the army.”

“I also thought about framing him and taking him down on the pretext of violating military discipline, but he was a very upright and honest person. He was not greedy for money or lustful and had never done anything against military discipline. My trusted military judge kept a close watch on him for several months, but we still couldn’t find a suitable excuse.”

“I also thought about sowing discord between him and others, making him enemies, and using a borrowed knife to kill him… but I failed. He is generous and righteous, and many of the people I originally intended to turn into his enemies ended up becoming his friends.”

"..."

Emery's expression became even stranger after hearing this.

...This Ye Bufan sounds like a protagonist from a novel? Could it be that you, junior sister, are actually one of those minor villains?

Lost in her thoughts, Amelie asked curiously:

“Since Ye Bufan is harmless and brave, why do you want to kill him, Junior Sister? Wouldn’t it be better to keep him around to be your servant? You can give him all the dirty, tiring, and dangerous tasks.”

"Hmph, he must die!"

Ji Xinyu suddenly became annoyed, clearly thinking of something that made her angry.

She took two deep breaths before meeting Amelie's curious gaze and gritting her teeth, she said:

“I once had a good friend named Wan’er… We grew up together, often eating, living, bathing, and traveling together. I thought we could spend our lives together.”

"But on that beautiful moonlit night, when I confessed my feelings to Wan'er and planned to become closer to her... she panicked and rejected me, saying that she had only ever considered me a sister and that she already had someone she loved, Ye Bufan."

“I wanted to try again, but after that night, Wan’er avoided me and stayed by Ye Bufan’s side all day long… They got engaged last year and are currently inseparable.”
