Login with GoogleChapter 9: Bai Lian's Speech
After confirming that her clothes were not damaged, Bai Lian checked the task reward, Tao Halo Special Effect.
In an ordinary game, this would be a passive skill.
Of course, if Bai Lian wants to explain, she prefers to compare it to VIP features in online games.
It surrounds Bai Lian with mystical illusions during her cultivation. For example, when Tong Yao looked down from the top of the Qiongming Peak just now, she saw the dragon and phoenix formed by water mist.
After acquiring this skill, even if Bai Lian takes a walk, there would be slight fluctuations in the flow of Tao under her feet.
Like shining wings and colorful skins in online games, this thing doesn't have any actual use, but can further substantiate the rumor that Bai Lian is a Natural Saint!
But the point is…
"Who needs this?"
(╯｀□′)╯~╧╧
Bai Lian felt like she had eaten a fly.
Her biggest wish is to not be noticed by anyone in the Duxian Sect.
In this way, she would not have to worry about being involved in the struggle between the protagonists and the villains.
Next, as long as she earned more skill points and had the strength to protect herself, Bai Lian would be satisfied.
But now.
While the Tao Halo Special Effect is active, it would be as if she was holding a sign saying [Look, I'm super awesome!].
Does the system think that I'm not dying fast enough?
Bai Lian shuddered.
With her current strength, if those who are powerful knew the truth, she could at any time be used as a "cauldron".
They might even give a bad review after using her up—
"Natural Saint? Her? Crap. After fucking her, my spiritual power didn't grow at all!"
No, I can't bear it!
Bai Lian looked up at the night sky and began to complain about Tong Yao. If it hadn't been for that drunkard, she would have satisfied herself with her hands that time. Isn't [Soft Skill +3] good?
"The future Lord of Hades Hall? If I can live to the end, I will XXX you if I get the chance."
Bai Lian mumbled.
It's no use worrying about this now. Let's take the opportunity to teach the new Younger Martial Sister at the Qiongming Peak.
Just a bit longer. The longer she avoids discovery, the stronger she grows and the less likely she is to be discovered.
The girl walked slowly to the edge of the medicine garden.
As described by the system, her small white shoes left sparkling waves wherever they stepped, lasting for about three seconds. In the moonlight, the halo was even more eye-catching.
Bai Lian held her chin and looked at it for a while.
The light patterns at first looked arbitrary, but there seemed to be some incomprehensible law in it.
"Is this a real Tao Halo?"
When a cultivator reaches a certain extraordinary level, he or she will come into contact with the concept of "Law". However, compared with "Law", the "Tao Halo" is at an even higher level.
Bai Lian felt worried.
If this is the real Tao Halo, will she be caught by those powerful evil cultivators as a research object?
What a curse!
Why did the system place a target on me like this?
I just bullied the female protagonists in the game several times.
It shouldn’t warrant a death sentence, right?
Bai Lian sighed.
She bent over to check the medicine garden. During the days she left, the spiritual plants in the medicine garden had not been damaged.
"It seems that the rabbit who likes to get up in the middle of the night and steal vegetables hadn’t come."
Bai Lian breathed a sigh of relief.
There are only three residents in the huge Qiongming Peak. Apart from her and Master An Lan, there is only a rabbit-shaped beast with a snow-white body and strange ears.
The rabbit often comes to the medicine garden to steal food when Bai Lian is not there. Bai Lian also wanted to teach it a lesson. However, it is so agile that Bai Lian can’t catch it.
Regarding this, An Lan just smiled. She never cared about such "small" things.
Bai Lian, who hadn't recovered her memory at that time, suffered a lot because of it.
That should be just an ordinary beast.
Bai Lian thought so.
She recalled the "fighting" in the Battle of the Gods. There was no white rabbit in the plot.
After watering the herbs in the medicine garden, Bai Lian waited until dawn, and then she quickly walked to the Medical Pills Pavilion.
She was supposed to have a very smooth trip, but unexpectedly, she met trouble at the entrance.
At the gate of the Medical Pills Pavilion, standing opposite Bai Lian was Wen Ren Ya Le with white bandage wrapped around her palm.
Was this an injury caused by Tong Yao?
Bai Lian was about to comfort Wen Ren Ya Le with a few words, but a new option popped up.
[Task 1: Sneer and say, “Play with fire, get burned”. (Reward: A top-grade magic tool - Thunder Bead)]
[Task 2: Comfort Wen Ren Ya Le. (Reward: Magic - Tide)]
[Task 3: Walk away silently. (Reward: Callus Pill)]
"Emmm…"
It's never over, isn't it?
Bai Lian wants to complain that women are really troublesome.
Especially angry women!
Choose Task 3 decisively.
Immediately, Bai Lian walked by Wen Ren Ya Le, silent and unheeding of her.
She could only hear the sound of stamping feet behind her.
Bai Lian pretended as if she didn't hear it. She found the deacon of the Medical Pills Pavilion and began to ask for a method to repair the Obsolete Spiritual Root.
As the first disciple of the Qiongming Peak, Bai Lian has a very high position in the Duxian Sect. Among her peers, the only equals in standing are the sect leader's disciples.
Therefore, the Deacon didn't dare to be even a bit neglectful, and told her a dozen ways to repair the Obsolete Spiritual Root.
"Bring out the best medicine."
Bai Lian threw out her ID plate. There were many contribution points in it.
Then another task selection was triggered. The system tempted her to add a Snow Beast's internal core to the medicine. The internal core would not hurt the efficacy of repairing the Obsolete Spiritual Root, but would cause Xiao Jinse to sink into desire afterwards.
To be honest . . .
It sounds really exciting!
It must be very stimulating to bully the protagonist.
But Xiao Jinse is the protagonist after all. In web novels, the protagonists can always find out methods to bully back.
It's even possible for a hero to fall from the sky and save Xiao Jinse.
Everything depends on the author's wishes.
Bai Lian shook her head and chose the task of [Tea Ceremony +3]. After her basic skills broke the 100 points limit, the reward pool seemed to have improved significantly.
While waiting for the deacon to make the medicine, Bai Lian met Wen Ren Ya Le who came to take medicine for her injury.
After hesitating for a moment, she handed over the Callus Pill she had just obtained, and said, "I made it myself. The efficacy should be several times better than that in the Medical Pills Pavilion."
Wen Ren Ya Le was stunned.
Is this for her?
She would like to reach out to take the Callus Pill and thank Martial Sister Bai Lian as excitedly as she did in the secret realm two years ago.
But there was a sudden surge of anger.
When Wen Ren Ya Le recovered, she pushed Bai Lian's hand away.
"…"
Not only Bai Lian, but also other disciples in the Medical Pills Pavilion stared at Wen Ren Ya Le dumbfounded.
The girl's face suddenly turned pale.
"I don't need you to care about me!"
Wen Ren Ya Le grit her teeth and said. She took a bottle of medicine from the wooden shelves and turned away.
It's only a kind of hypocrisy to suddenly care about her now!
Wen Ren Ya Le felt slightly bitter.
A new task popped up in front of Bai Lian again. She still chose the option of "Motionless" with the least risk. The reward she got was an inferior magic tool - Cloud Boots.
Cloud boots are of low grade and functioned through channeling Qi, but they can add 35 points of Light Skill. From the point of view of the effect, it even surpasses some medium-grade magic tools.
Looking at the back of Wen Ren Ya Le, Bai Lian was thoughtful.
She had tried, and it was very difficult to eliminate Wen Ren Ya Le's malice towards herself.
However, even if Wen Ren Ya Le hated her, she would not be in real danger in the future. It could be seen from the fact that the task reward at the highest level was only a top-grade magic tool.
This system had no lottery function, but Bai Lian changed her mind. Since Wen Ren Ya Le was not a threat to her, she could treat Wen Ren Ya Le as a humanoid lottery machine!
For example, she just got a pair of Cloud Boots.
Wonderful!
Bai Lian felt that she was really a genius.
When she looked up, the disciples next to her talked to each other.
"No way, she turned down Martial Sister Bai Lian's kindness?"
"What a waste. If it was me, I would definitely take it. And I will hide the medical pills in my treasure box and smell them from time to time."
"…?”
"It's understandable. Wen Ren Ya Le is trying to challenge Martial Sister Bai Lian. Obviously, she is jealous of Martial Sister Bai Lian. How can she accept her kindness?"
"She is making an enemy of the public."
"She must have a hole in her brain."
"Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian, she…"
Wen Ren Ya Le stopped at the door.
No.
Her only goal is Bai Lian.
After biting her lip, Wen Ren Ya Le was about to leave when she suddenly heard the voice of Bai Lian behind her.
"It’s all good."
Wen Ren Ya Le could imagine Bai Lian's calm temperament.
"Actually, I like younger martial sister Wen Ren Ya Le very much."
"Eh?"
Everyone in the Medical Pills Pavilion exclaimed, and Wen Ren Ya Le's body shook violently.
Bai Lian said, "Younger martial sister Wen Ren Ya Le regards me as a challenging target. It's not ridiculous! Our qualifications only determine our starting point. If we want to cultivate, our conduct is critical. We can't belittle anyone, and of course, we can't belittle ourselves. If everyone in the Duxian Sect could strive for the top like younger martial sister Wen Ren Ya Le, it won't take long for the Duxian Sect to become the most accomplished in the entire East Divine Land. That's a real blessing!"
As soon as she said that, some disciples began to cry out.
"She deserves to be Martial Sister Bai Lian!"
"Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian is so broad-minded!"
Hearing that, Wen Ren Ya Le's body shook again.
She never thought that Bai Lian would say such words. Compared with Bai Lian, she was just as naive as a three-year-old child.
That's ridiculous.
Elder Martial Sister Bai Lian is still as gentle as when she first met her that year, but her gentleness has been for the whole Duxian Sect from the beginning.
Wen Ren Ya Le laughed miserably.
She wanted to go back and apologize, but she was afraid to see Bai Lian's calm eyes. Her heart became more and more bitter. She finally strode towards the Zhuyan Peak.
She will still take Martial Sister Bai Lian as a challenging target, but that…
That will be just be to prove that I deserve Martial Sister Bai Lian's kindness!
Wen Ren Ya Le decided not to see Bai Lian for the time being.
At this time, Bai Lian, who took the medicine from the deacon, didn't know that her human-shaped lottery machine had already retired.
"I am a genius!"
She walked happily towards the Qiongming Peak.
