Senior Sister, Please Don't Do Anything Rash...
"Senior sister... it's the lantern festival today... let's go take a look..."
"Yes, senior sister, I heard a lot of handsome guys will be going to the lantern festival today. Let's go check it out."
"Senior Brother Jiang will be there too..."
"Senior sister, don't hold it in too long."
"Senior sister, those are all rumors. No matter how powerful junior brother is, there's no way he could enter the back mountain of the Empty Spirit Sect..."
"Yes, Senior Sister, you can't be misled by those rumors. Junior Brother Jiang is only treating you to sausages."
"Senior sister, Qin Xiao doesn't think before he speaks. Don't listen to him. We've already tied Qin Xiao up."
"Yes, senior sister, you have to trust Junior Brother Jiang. He's absolutely devoted to you."
Outside the courtyard, the cultivators of the Dragon Gate Sect were shouting incessantly, especially Qin Xiao, who was bound by Tortoise Shell Binding and hung from the Crooked Neck Tree outside the courtyard, looking quite pitiful.
Ever since Qin Xiao let it slip last time, Lin Qingwan stood there blankly for a long time, then tears welled up in her eyes, and finally returned to the courtyard as if she had lost her mind.
After that, the girl stayed indoors and never went out.
The Dragon Gate Sect brothers didn't dare to step into their senior sister's courtyard.
After all, apart from Junior Brother Jiang, she had never actually seen any male cultivator step into her Senior Sister's courtyard.
As for the Dragon Gate Sect sisters, they dared not provoke this trouble at this stage. What a loss it would be if they incurred Elder Sister Lin's dislike...
So everyone has been trying to persuade them outside for four whole days now...
Of course, Qin Xiao was also left hanging in the tree for four days...
In other sects, you would hardly imagine your senior brother being hung from a tree by his junior brothers and sisters, and for four days straight...
Actually, the Dragon Gate Sect didn't do this before, but after Jiang Lin came that year, it seemed like the atmosphere changed...
It all seems pretty normal...
Of course, they still genuinely respected their senior brother, but for the sake of their senior sister and Senior Brother Jiang's happiness, they could only do this for the time being.
"Senior sister..."
"Senior sister..."
I called for a long time, but there was still no response...
"Senior Sister Shangguan, why hasn't Senior Sister Lin responded yet? Could it be that Senior Sister..." Suddenly, a junior sister had a bold idea.
"Senior sister, please don't do anything rash... Senior sister..."
Another fangirl also felt that her senior sister might do something foolish because of love, so she rushed into the courtyard and kept banging on the wooden door.
"Don't worry, Qingwan won't do anything so foolish until your Senior Brother Jiang is truly confirmed to have cheated. At most, Qingwan will... will... be in trouble!"
Suddenly, a bold idea popped into Shangguan Mei's mind!
"Senior Sister Shangguan?!"
Before her fellow disciples could react, Shangguan Mei had already rushed into the courtyard and slashed off the locked door with her sword!
The door opened, revealing the girl's room. The walls were covered with portraits of Jiang Lin, and the bed had two life-sized cylindrical cushions with Jiang Lin's image on them.
A shoe that looked like a man's lay on the couch. If Jiang Lin saw it, he would recognize it as the Sweat Steed Boots that had disappeared years ago!
Among them were some of Jiang Lin's clothes that the girls had collected over a long time, and even a braided strand of hair, which undoubtedly belonged to Jiang Lin.
Upon seeing the room, which was filled with the aura of "Senior Brother Jiang," all the fellow disciples who walked in felt a chill run down their spines...
For a moment, I didn't know whether to feel happy or sad for Junior Brother Jiang... but I should be happy... after all, such a peerless beauty (and sickly beauty) loves you so much, how could you not be moved?
There's definitely no way I'd dare move!
The female cultivators, upon seeing their senior sister's room, all swallowed hard...
Now they finally understood why, whether in the Empty Spirit Sect or their own Dragon Gate Sect, their senior sister always took so long to tidy up her room whenever they wanted to enter...
It turns out the room wasn't too messy, but rather too... a pervert?
Some female cultivators who even dreamed of sharing the spoils with their senior sister, making her the main wife while they themselves became First Wife, broke out in a cold sweat.
Although my senior sister is usually very kind to me, I can guarantee that now...
Anyone who dares to compete with Senior Sister for Jiang Lin will probably be torn to pieces.
"All disciples of the Dragon Gate Sect, heed my command! Find Senior Sister Lin or Junior Brother Jiang as quickly as possible! There is no time to lose!"
"Senior Sister Shangguan? What happened? Why...?"
Don't ask why! Just go!
Looking at the empty Natal Treasure Immortal Binding Rope that Senior Sister Lin had tried to refine into her natal artifact, Shangguan Mei broke out in a cold sweat.
"If we don't go now... my junior brother might be finished..."
Behind the Empty Spirit Sect, a girl with bangs, who looked like the girl next door, sat on a stone bench in the courtyard.
The girl was enveloped in rich and pure Spiritual Power, and the cultivation technique that was extremely compatible with her was able to clear her life meridians, Spiritual Apertures, and the Longevity Bridge.
It was as if this mental cultivation method was created just for the girl, and was born to be used by her.
Four days have passed since the phantom imparted the Mo Li Tong Li Snake Race's mental cultivation method to Mo Li.
During these four days, the girl devoted herself to cultivation, hoping to quickly achieve a minor success in her cultivation so that she could temporarily leave the back mountain for one night.
It will only take one night.
That night, I will find him in the market and tell him that someone wants to kill him, so he should leave immediately.
"Just a little bit more... just a little bit more and it will be a small success..."
Mo Li's forehead was already covered in sweat, and the sweat even emitted a faint fragrance, which was the result of the girl being immersed in the pure Spiritual Power of the back mountain.
But the girl, in her eagerness to succeed, eventually coughed up a mouthful of blood, which stained her clothes.
"Don't rush... Mo Li... You can do it... You can't let anyone die because of you..."
She exhaled a deep breath, gently wiped the corner of her mouth, and murmured to herself as if to encourage herself.
In reality, what was the girl truly thinking: did she not want anyone to die because of her, or did she simply not want anything to happen to "him"?
There may be some of these factors involved, but the weight of each factor might not even be noticeable to the girl.
With his eyes closed again, Mo Li continued to circulate his Spiritual Power.
The Tong Li Snake Race's cultivation method is like that of a craftsman; it not only requires the gradual repair of the Spiritual Apertures and the Longevity Bridge, but can even involve a complete overhaul.
Although the latter cannot be achieved for the time being, the former effect is already sufficient.
What Mo Li needs to do now is to use this mental technique to connect all the Spiritual Apertures in his body with Spiritual Power.
"It's done!"
An hour later, the girl finally opened her eyes.
Looking up at the moonlight, it wasn't too late...
After changing her clothes in the room, the girl quickly ran out. This was the first time she was about to leave the back mountain... and she was doing so entirely on her own initiative.
Under the moonlight, watching the girl's receding figure, the voluptuous woman leaned against a tree, a slight smile playing on her lips.
