Love Is Gone!

Spirit Pearl Mountain, surrounded by immortal energy, with cranes flying and birds singing, fresh air, abundant spiritual power, low carbon dioxide content, sufficient oxygen content. The mountain paths are filled with the fragrance of flowers and the songs of birds; a post-meal stroll can prolong life.

However...

"Bang!"

A loud noise startled the birds in the forest as a giant Water Dragon charged towards a small black dot in the sky.

"Thump..."

The small black dot in the sky fell straight to the ground.

Clutching his chest, he struggled to stand up. Soaked all over, he licked the traces of blood at the corner of his mouth, mixing it with the water droplets on his face as he drank. It was surprisingly sweet...

Gracefully, a woman in a light veil, her hair wet, landed barefoot. Her clear, watery eyes were filled with hatred, shame, annoyance, and anger.

The woman's appearance was delicate and beautiful, her features exquisitely refined like a work of art. A white silk ribbon tied around her waist added a touch of delicate beauty and fragility. The cicada-wing-like, dark, light gauze further enhanced her spiritual aura, yet inadvertently added a sense of vulnerability. Her soft, smooth, three thousand strands of hair cascaded down like a waterfall, making her appear even more elegant and ethereal.

"Jiang Lin! I'm asking you!"

"I loved you!"

"Ah..."

With a wave of her sleeve, the woman sent a gust of wind, carrying the scent of flowers and spring bath water, directly at Jiang Lin, sending him flying far, far away...

Standing up with great difficulty again, Jiang Lin's eyes held no trace of hatred, only the helplessness of the world~~~~~

"Why! Jiang Lin! My Dragon Gate Sect treated you well, why did you steal the Dragon Vein!"

On the pebble path, the woman, barefoot, stepped forward. Raising her long sword, she questioned the man before her with her soul.

"Huh? Senior Sister, aren't you going to scold me for peeking at you bathing?"

The woman's pretty face instantly turned red to the roots of her ears: "Don't change the subject! Jiang Lin! Why did you betray my sect!"

"Why betray..."

Straightening up, the man named Jiang Lin looked up at the sky...

Yes, why betray?

Thinking of this, two lines of tears silently flowed from Jiang Lin's eyes.

He remembered that right after he finished his college entrance exams, he was sitting in front of his computer with the air conditioning on, drinking Happy Fat Guy Water and playing a game. He had spent all the money he had painstakingly saved to open loot boxes.

As a result, he had spent nearly two thousand yuan and all he got were Resurrection Coins?!

After opening the last box and still getting a pile of Resurrection Coins, he was so angry he died...

Then he transmigrated to this inexplicable cultivation world. Cultivating was impossible, and what was so good about cultivating? He had read those novels in his past life where people fought to the death over resources every day, basically becoming stepping stones for the protagonist.

Just as Jiang Lin was planning to live an ordinary life in this world, he was picked up at the age of eight and inexplicably became a disciple of the Demonic Sect?!

He had initially wanted to quit the Demonic Sect and live a reclusive life, but then there was this villain system that forced him, a good kid, to do the things a Demonic Sect member would do...

Because he had to complete the Demonic Sect's performance targets, Jiang Lin came.

The Dragon Vein was a specialty of the Dragon Gate Sect, producing four per year... It could be brewed into tea or chewed directly to improve cultivation.

Through the sect's recruitment, no, through the sect's enrollment, Jiang Lin successfully entered and even became a Direct Disciple. After a year of dedicated study! He finally got access to the Dragon Vein and could finally steal it today to complete his mission!

But who would have thought! The escape route he chose happened to be the Spirit Spring Pool on Spirit Pearl Peak, and the Eldest Senior Sister was bathing at that exact moment.

Jiang Lin really didn't mean to see everything. Although he really wanted to, he truly didn't. But just as he was about to make his escape, that darn system suddenly gave him a mission: to go and peek at the Eldest Senior Sister bathing.

In the end, he peeked, the mission was completed... but he was also discovered...

"Jiang Lin, answer me. If you have a hidden reason, Senior Sister can help you, and the sect can help you."

Lin Qingwan, a Direct Disciple of the Dragon Gate Sect, bit her red lips lightly. Her beautiful eyes were filled with anxiety and sorrow.

She remembered when he first joined the Dragon Gate Sect, how introverted he was, calling her "Senior Sister" over and over, bringing her food even when he was being punished, and taking care of her through the night when she was injured. Lin Qingwan's eyes welled up with tears.

"Senior Sister... I'm sorry, we have different paths and cannot conspire together." With a sigh, Jiang Lin looked "affectionately" at Lin Qingwan, "Actually... I am from the Demonic Sect..."

"What..."

A spring breeze gently caressed the hem of the girl's light veil. Hearing Jiang Lin's answer, Lin Qingwan's small mouth parted, her look of disbelief was so... cute... Want to...

"Cough... Cough! Cough! Cough!"

Gathering his emotions, Jiang Lin coughed violently. Suddenly, before Lin Qingwan could react, Jiang Lin lunged at her, who was holding her sword and pointing it at him.

"Pfft..."

The long sword pierced Jiang Lin's heart. He spat out a mouthful of blood and fell forward.

"Junior Brother..."

Lin Qingwan extended her slender arms to catch Jiang Lin. Holding him, she even spun around in the air. Lin Qingwan beautifully held Jiang Lin as she sat on the ground, Jiang Lin leaning in her embrace, smelling her hair.

"Senior Sister, I'm sorry, I... I know I did something excessive."

In Lin Qingwan's arms, Jiang Lin caressed her delicate, fair cheek. The girl was now crying profusely.

"Actually, I don't want to... don't want to be a member of the Demonic Sect... I... ugh..."

"Jiang Lin, don't speak anymore, don't say anything more. I'll heal you now."

"No! Senior Sister... it's too late."

Jiang Lin held Lin Qingwan's soft, boneless hand and placed it on his chest.

"Senior Sister, I betrayed the sect. I deserve to die, and to die by your hand is the greatest happiness of my life, Jiang Lin."

"Don't say anymore, don't say anymore..."

Lin Qingwan's tears dripped down, and she held Jiang Lin tightly.

Jiang Lin shamelessly buried his head deeper into Lin Qingwan's embrace.

"Senior Sister, I'm sorry. I've already refined the Dragon Vein. If I die, the Dragon Vein will disappear with me, and I won't be able to repay you. If there's a next life, I will definitely repay you...

Senior Sister... also... there's one more thing I have to say...

Senior Sister... I... uh..."

Before he could finish speaking, Jiang Lin's hand, which had been touching the girl's oily face, fell to the ground. Jiang Lin turned into thousands of light particles and disappeared into the girl's embrace, not even his clothes remaining...

"No!"

On Spirit Pearl Mountain, the girl's heartbroken cry echoed through the mountains and forests...

Ding...

The sound of a silver coin hitting the ground quietly echoed in the distance. A bright light landed, and Jiang Lin appeared unharmed in the distance.

Along with Jiang Lin's arrival in this cultivation world, 99,999 Resurrection Coins decreased by one...

"So close, so close. My acting should be okay, right? I need to run quickly, or I'll be discovered."

Jiang Lin, having been resurrected, breathed a sigh of relief. He grabbed the four Dragon Veins and quickly used Spiritual Energy Horse to sneak away.

At the same time, the System's voice sounded in Jiang Lin's mind again.
