Strong Survival Instinct

Zi Yan, whose senses were exceptionally keen to auras, instinctively started moving sideways, exposing Xun'er completely.

Not knowing where to put her jade-like hands, the shy, timid little girl hiding behind her own sister reminded Xun'er of her younger self.

Though she had sworn to protect her sister, some things seemed to have already reached Xun'er's bottom line.

"Being able to hide behind Sister San'er is Xun'er's exclusive privilege!"

A chill ran down Lin Yiyi's spine. Her gaze darted about wildly until she met the eyes of an exquisitely beautiful girl who looked thirty percent similar to Gu Mo'er. Even now, the foolish Lin Yiyi had not figured out what was going on.

Within her sea of consciousness.

"M-Master, why is her gaze so terrifying?!"

Gu Sujin, who had recovered somewhat, focused her gaze and curled her lips into an amused smile. "You took the place of her beloved little sister, and you won't even let her look at you with hostility?"

"Ah?! No way!"

Gu Sujin closed her eyes and stopped paying attention to her foolish disciple's racket. Gu Mo'er and Gu Xun'er's appearances overlapped in her mind, and deep within Gu Xun'er's eyes, she saw a divine light unlike that of ordinary people.

It was like... like seeing a cheating husband!

No, that wasn't right! She seemed unusually tolerant of her "husband." If that were really the case, then it went without saying who would be the unlucky one.

Even after the foolish girl left, Gu Sujin's smile remained.

"The direct line of this clan is getting more and more creative..."

The Black Annihilation Army's Training Ground.

Xun'er grabbed Zi Yan, who was scuttling sideways like a crab. With a slight squeeze of her jade-like hand, Zi Yan tacitly put on a stern little face and strode forward.
