Thinking back to her past life, Wei Daidan wasn't the most popular dragon girl, nor was she the most distinctive. From the player's perspective, Wei Daidan looked too young, and her black and white outfit lacked any highlights. Although her character design and story development improved her a lot later on, overall, she wasn't a popular character.
But Lu Yueyuan and she were destined to be together. She was the first dragon girl he drew that year, and she was also the first one to bring him despair.
A transmigrator, equipped with a system, is trapped in endless reincarnations, yet he can't even leave the starting village.
"You are dangerous." Lu Yueyuan remembered this sentence for a long time. Whenever Wei Daidan said this, it meant that she was about to turn on him. She was completely unreasonable and did not care about the occasion or time. As long as she sensed danger, she would definitely get rid of you.
"Come on, Lu Yueyuan, you can definitely overcome this despair!" the system cheered him on.
He was truly grateful to the system. Without it, he would probably have been in despair. In the 534th simulation, he did nothing but carefully consider the connections between things, try to avoid danger, and not touch the other party's points. He was just working hard in secret.
He first sent Ming Huaiwei away, and at the same time laid an ambush.
To completely solve the problem, he used a splitting method to set up one million talismans that could destroy the essence of things in the Jiuyi Sect. Each of these talismans was harmless on its own, but once combined with the grand formation, they would trigger a series of explosions. Wei Daidan's sense of danger was indeed very strong, but it was only a sense of danger, not a prediction of the future. If the other party did not take any obviously dangerous actions and showed no murderous intent, Wei Daidan would still not be able to sense it.
As long as the arrangements are made, as long as you guide others to lure them back, and as long as you remain unmoved and sit there obediently, nothing will happen.
But the moment Lu Yueyuan had that thought after the explosion, that very thought was detected by Wei Daidan, who killed him with a long-range attack. And that wasn't all. When the next simulated future began, Wei Daidan appeared directly in his cave.
"You are dangerous." It's still a cliché.
She ignored all explanations and killed Lu Yueyuan with a single sword strike.
"You are dangerous." "You are dangerous." "You are dangerous." "You are dangerous." "You are dangerous." After more than a hundred simulations of the future, Wei Daidan blocked his path and killed him, shattering Lu Yueyuan's Dao heart and driving him to despair before she finally stopped.
"Without dying, the Way cannot be born. This is a trial..." Lu Yueyuan had forgotten how he survived. He felt that his soul was almost numb. If it weren't for the system's constant support, he might have really collapsed.
But he had truly grown. He could control his murderous intent and calm his mind. He would not reveal any trace before he succeeded. From then on, he finally got rid of the threat of Wei Daidan. She could no longer judge him. Finally, in a simulation, he successfully killed Wei Daidan. He would always remember the shocked but gratified look in her eyes.
"You escaped danger, you turned danger into safety. There really are people like you in this world..." These were her last words before she died.
He stood beside Wei Daidan's corpse, from dusk till dawn. The girl, eyes closed, nestled at his feet, as if asleep. The color of blood mingled with the glow of the newborn sun. He lowered his hand, placing it just beside her lips, like a princess kissing her knight.
Now that so many simulations have been conducted, the crisis is no longer the most difficult one to solve, and she can no longer put him in despair. Lu Yueyuan had already made preparations, and after analyzing the situation with the Holy Emperor, he used a talisman to contact Ming Huaiwei.
"Junior sister, I have some questions for you regarding the sect leader's succession ceremony," he said.
"Senior brother, I'm coming right now," she replied quickly.
As long as she doesn't cross Ming Huaiwei's lines, she's the best tool. Her feelings for him are truly complex—love to the point of hate, yet hate that doesn't lead to death. This is something Lu Yueyuan can't understand. He doesn't understand what it means to love to the point of hate, yet hate that doesn't lead to death. He's not a fickle person. If it weren't for the system, he would really want to be with Ming Huaiwei and become a Daoist couple that others envy, even if it meant challenging the rules of the Dragon Vein.
But why? She loved him, but where did her hatred come from? Lu Yueyuan couldn't understand, especially after seeing the red and black lines.
"I'm sorry to trouble you. I just have some questions I'd like to ask you. I don't want to delay your cultivation," Lu Yueyuan said.
"Senior brother, don't say that. Your succession as sect leader is a major event and cannot be taken lightly."
"No, I sensed that Wei Daidan had returned yesterday. If you're busy, I can ask her directly."
"Wei Daidan is back?" After a long silence, someone replied, "I didn't even sense it. It seems you're quite strong, Senior Brother. At least in terms of perception, you're better than me."
“Wei Daidan doesn’t oppose me becoming the sect leader. She might be a supporter of mine. Perhaps I should find her and we can talk about support.”
"Isn't that necessary, Senior Brother? You really need her support?" Ming Huai asked.
Lu Yueyuan paused deliberately before saying, "Every sect leader needs the support of the nine lineages. Our master mentioned this before."
"no......."
Lu Yueyuan's voice was suppressed and soft. He wanted to say something more, but the formation in the cave suddenly reacted. The blue figure teleported in almost instantly, with a whooshing sound. Even the formation couldn't stop her: "Senior brother, just ask me. If you need her support, I'll help you."
Lu Yueyuan looked at Ming Huaiwei, who had suddenly appeared, and nodded and smiled.
"Okay, with your help, it will definitely be more secure," Lu Yueyuan said with a smile.
“I’ve memorized the procedures for the ceremony. I’ll teach you, Senior Brother,” Ming Huaiwei said. “Once you’ve learned it, I’ll go find her. I promise she will support you.”
Chapter 12: The Dragon Girl's Sensation
Ming Huaiwei walked out of Lu Yueyuan's cave with a dark expression on her face.
She felt she was being a bit too petty.
Lu Yueyuan actually had nothing to do with Wei Daidan. The Dragon Maidens always looked down on him as the sect leader who had been pushed up. Although Wei Daidan never expressed his disgust, he never showed any affection either.
But she was still very unhappy.
Ming Huaiwei's social circle is really small. A long time ago, her social circle consisted only of Lu Yueyuan. Now that she has become a dragon girl, her social circle still consists only of Lu Yueyuan. She has never changed from beginning to end.
But she felt that Lu Yueyuan had changed, and she didn't like this change.
He has a grandmaster, a master, senior brothers and sisters, junior brothers and sisters. He is not lonely at all, and it has been so from then until now. He can attract people's attention wherever he goes. He is not as self-conscious as he is. He is like the bright moon. Even if he only reflects the sun's light, he is dazzlingly bright.
It's infuriating, really infuriating.
As she walked along the mountain path, a spatial rift suddenly appeared in front of her.
The black and white skirt fluttered in the wind, and the lovely but expressionless dragon girl appeared before Ming Huaiwei.
She nodded slightly to Ming Huai, who was much taller than her, and asked, "Little sister, would you like to chat? And watch the sunrise together?"
Ming Huai nodded slightly: "Okay, I was just looking for you."
She paused, then called out, "Sister."
Because the guardians all possess the bloodline of the Dragon God, they generally address each other as sisters.
However, these sisters are not ranked by age, but by the lineage they inherited. For example, Ming Huaiwei and Wei Daidan. In fact, Wei Daidan is younger, but Ming Huaiwei has to call her older sister.
At the summit of Daidan Cliff, Ming Huaiwei and Wei Daidan stood together, welcoming the golden light that slowly rose from the sea of clouds.
It was a truly thrilling night, a night that changed their destinies. But neither of the two dragon maidens showed any emotion. They joked around, and calling each other "sister" was just a sign of respect; there was absolutely no affection between them.
“What a beautiful sunrise! I love beautiful things,” Wei Daidan said. “Without danger, all living things will not be afraid, and without fear, they will reveal their beauty.”
"It's just an ordinary sunrise," Ming Huaiwei said indifferently.
“Every day is different; you have to have eyes that can see beauty,” Wei Daidan said. “Sister, no one will like you if you act like this.”
Something screamed in Ming Huaiwei's dark heart: "I called you 'sister' a few times and you actually think you're my sister?" She just found it funny. The dragon girls couldn't stand each other anyway, and it was a wonder that Wei Daidan put on such a sisterly act. She remembered very clearly that when she first became a guardian, none of those so-called sisters gave her a kind look, not even Wei Daidan. At that time, she was expressionless and looked at her as if she were an ant.
How arrogant, how haughty, is even giving a glance a favor?
Ming Huaiwei's heart was screaming, a scream that only she could hear. She remembered a long time ago in the village, when she would shrink into a small group, like a dull little stone, receiving Lu Yueyuan's benevolent gaze.
I really want to tear your faces apart.
“You’ve been getting very close to him. You should know that a guardian of a meridian cannot have a Daoist partner,” Wei Daidan said. “Don’t blame me for not reminding you, sister. It’s not a good thing to step in and support him now.”
"And what about you, sister? Have you chosen a candidate from the Four Gods?" Ming Huaiwei asked in return.
“You helped him steal the token when he went into the back mountain yesterday, right? Just this alone, if Seventh Brother’s Hall of Words finds out, he’ll be in big trouble.” Wei Daidan was not afraid of pressure at all and only talked about his own situation.
"The duty of a guardian of the dragon vein is to protect their own dragon vein, but the sisters have chosen sides with the four gods and carried out their so-called grand plan. Although you did not choose sides, you still complied. Otherwise, why would you have left the sect?" Ming Huaiwei was not intimidated. Whether you listen or not, I won't listen anyway.
“You’re taking advantage of the fact that Seventh Brother’s main body isn’t here, right? Well, right now, in the entire sect, only you and I have the time to deal with that kid. But my main body has finally returned.” Wei Daidan said, “Sister, you should be nicer to me. When you ask for a favor, you should be polite.”
"Sister, I heard you met with the Fairy of Melodious Sound's representative the day before yesterday..."
"Sister!" Wei Daidan interrupted her, "You and I both know that the Four Gods are not in the God Realm right now. He didn't go into the forbidden area in the back mountain for the Four Gods. It's not good to be too explicit. I'm just asking you, you don't want him to fail to inherit the position of sect leader, do you?"
The dazzling sun rose fully, its rays shining upon the earth.
The light and shadow lengthened the two sisters' shadows, and Ming Huaiwei remained silent for a long time.
She said, "I can guarantee he'll behave himself."
Wei Daidan looked at her and smiled.
Wei Daidan said, "It has nothing to do with me. I just want to ensure my own safety and get the benefits that are rightfully mine. Didn't the Great Virtue True Lord's representative give you the inheritance? I think you can give me that."
Ming Huaiwei was somewhat surprised: "You want that?"
Wei Daidan nodded: "Mm."
The lineage of the True Lord...
Ming Huaiwei fell into deep thought. She herself didn't need this thing, but it was something she left for Lu Yueyuan.
She hesitated for a moment, then said, "Let's choose another one. The legacy of the Great Virtue True Lord is useless to you."
In this world, those who cultivate diligently are not as good as those who have cheat codes, and those who have cheat codes are not as good as those with powerful backers. In other worlds, gods may just be decorations, but in this world, gods really do possess people and beat them up.
For believers, the greatest source of divine blessing is undoubtedly the inheritance of a lineage.
Compared to frantically chanting incantations and kowtowing to a clay sculpture, the inherited blessing was powerful and swift, no less than directly meeting the gods at the grand formation in the back mountain. This was the backup plan Ming Huaiwei had left for Lu Yueyuan; she herself favored the Great Virtue True Lord more.
Therefore, she was unwilling to trade this item, and it was indeed useless to them, the dragon maidens.
But Wei Daidan was very decisive: "This is it."
"Fine," Ming Huaiwei said, unable to refuse the other party. He took out the green crystal from his pocket, thinking that he could always find another inheritance later.
Wei Daidan took it and played with it for a while, then frowned: "Strange, why is it still dangerous?"
Ming Huaiwei: "What?"
Wei Daidan handed it back: "I don't want it anymore, get something else. I heard you have a spirit pet..."
After going through several options, Wei Daidan was still not satisfied.
"Strange, strange, why is that...?"
Ming Huaiwei put away her life-saving ring and asked expressionlessly, "What exactly do you want?"
"I support Lu Yueyuan?"
Why is it a question?
“I support Lu Yueyuan? I support Lu Yueyuan! Very good, that’s it!” Wei Daidan clapped his hands in satisfaction. “The deal is done. I will appear at the succession ceremony as you wish.”
Ming Huaiwei's eyebrows twitched slightly. Was this woman playing him?
Chapter 13: The child can eat a lot, and has a lot of energy.
The Eternal Annihilation Holy Emperor is a legendary deity.
Legend has it that He possesses all powers related to humanity: greed, pride, gluttony, lust... The followers' title of "pride" is based on the names of these legendary powers.
He wields supreme power and knows all the truths of the world. Arrogance once opened the Book of Prophecy and praised Him: "He is the highest wisdom of mankind, the most beloved child of the heavens, who created all knowledge and controls all power."
Legends aside, the Holy Emperor did indeed know quite a lot.
Although most of His powers are now sealed, His wisdom can still help Lu Yueyuan, allowing this time traveler who keeps reincarnating to feel that he has gained something.
In the woods, the Holy Emperor instructed him on his magical cultivation: "Your self-created spells are interesting, but the spiritual energy circuits are too complex. In actual combat, things change in an instant, and you will suffer a great loss if you make a mistake."
This is indeed Lu Yueyuan's weakness.
In order to deal with those dragon girls who seemed to have cheat codes, Lu Yueyuan had to develop counter-techniques, which would inevitably lead to an overly complex spiritual energy circuit.
But there was nothing he could do.
After all, he couldn't compete with the numerical values, so he could only try to find a solution through the mechanism. That's how the system had planned for Lu Yueyuan before.
But sometimes, numbers can override the system's rules, just like the dragon girl he encountered whose numbers surpassed the system's, Ji Cheng said. That was the second-ranked dragon girl, whose inherited name was Ya Zi, and she was also a dragon girl who almost broke his mentality.
Compared to her sisters, this dragon girl possesses no extraordinary abilities. She has none of the following: karmic cycles, life revival, control of fate, mastery of space, etc. This child's powers are simple and unadorned.
It's very powerful.
What, you're asking how old she is?
Do you know Pangu? He was that big.
If Lu Yueyuan remembered correctly, in his previous life when playing games, this kid had an incredible passive ability: the longer the battle lasted, the higher his combat power became; the higher his combat power, the stronger his lifesteal; the stronger his lifesteal, the faster his attack speed; and the faster his attack speed, the higher his damage reduction.
What kind of overpowered passive ability is this, where the left foot steps on the right foot? Did the developers even use their brains when they filled in the numbers?
Those who didn't get the buff cursed, while those who did became bloodthirsty lunatics. Someone tested it and found that if you stack the buff to the maximum, a single punch from a child might be enough to send a god to meet his ancestors.
You can't do without some kind of outrageous mechanism for this kind of freakish girl, otherwise you can't expect Lu Yueyuan to beat her in a head-on fight, right?
Fortunately, the child's weakness was quite obvious, and Lu Yueyuan used trickery to coax her into committing suicide, thus winning the victory.
Now that the system is gone, the Holy Emperor is taking over the guidance, and she is not very satisfied with Lu Yueyuan's strategy.
"The more complex the spiritual energy circuit, the easier it is to encounter problems. One thing I have come to understand over the long years is that human wisdom has its limits."
The Holy Emperor said, "Battle is a very simple matter. If you can kill the opponent directly with spiritual energy, you should never use complicated methods."
Lu Yueyuan will always encounter other enemies. Not everyone is as difficult as Long Niang. Does everyone have to use such complicated magic?
The Holy Emperor felt that was a huge waste of time. If watching Lu Yueyuan deal with the Dragon Girl and the Four Gods was the main drama, then watching Lu Yueyuan deal with everyone else was just commercial break.
