After infiltrating the main characters' group, I became the most beautiful woman in the world.

Su Ning looked down at the woman who had collapsed from exhaustion.

It's not Tangxi.

But she knew him.

The woman's clothes were tattered and blood was seeping out. There was a curved scar at the corner of her eye. She was tightly gripping a large machete in her hand, as if it were her lifeline.

It was Sun Sanniang who had asked the question that afternoon.

Su Ning took out a pill from her purse. It was a Qi-replenishing pill that Xiao Qi had given her as compensation, but she had never used it.

After giving the pill to the person in front of him, he thought it would take a while for it to take effect, but unexpectedly, Sun San Niang woke up in no time.

Upon seeing that the person before her was a strange young woman, she was stunned, her voice hoarse: "Have I... arrived in the Yellow Springs?"

Su Ning explained the whole story to her, and the other party immediately got up to kowtow and thank her.

After stopping Sun San Niang, Yue Zi Jin's side was also about to finish. With Lin Ci's help, Yue Zi Jin was as if divinely aided.

One palm strike kills an ugly monster.

Yue Zijin was still not satisfied, but Lin Ci stopped him: "If you save your energy now, you'll have less trouble capturing Cangsong Daoren later."

Lin Ci's words enlightened him; yes, Cangsong Daoren was the most important person.

After seeing Yue Zijin and Lin Ci arrive, Sun Sanniang thanked them again.

Yue Zijin has never liked such formalities, so she went straight to the point: "These monsters are everywhere on the mountain now, how have you managed to hold them off for so long?"

Sun Sanniang was furious at the thought, and since she had regained much of her strength, she shoved her machete into the ground beside her and began cursing: "Damn it! That old pine tree is no human being! He's worse than a pig or a dog!"

"He placed the manual at the bottom of a cliff. From above, it certainly looked bottomless, but I remembered his saying that seeing is not believing, so I decided to take a gamble. I tied the rope around my waist and then tied it to a tree nearby."

"There's definitely something mysterious down there, but it's also quite dangerous."

"I barely made it through, only to find there was no secret manual inside, but a nest of poisonous snakes. I was so angry I wanted to kill him!"

Sun San Niang became more and more agitated as she spoke, wishing she could pour out all the frustration and resentment in her heart.

What happened next was that after she finally climbed up, Xiaguang Mountain had already changed. Not only did she not encounter a single living person, but she also encountered quite a few inhuman and ghostly things.

Then, just when she thought she was about to die from exhaustion, she encountered Su Ning and her group.

After hearing this, the three of them were unsure whether to marvel at Sun San Niang's good fortune in escaping being tricked into becoming a drug puppet, or to lament her bad luck in having her efforts wasted and almost becoming a drug puppet herself.

"Sister Sun, we are now seeking revenge against Daoist Cangsong. Would you be willing to join us in slaying these treacherous members of the demonic sect?"

Yue Zijin clasped his hands together and explained his thoughts to the other party.

The fact that Sun San Niang was able to escape the trap set by Cangsong Daoren and endure for so long in the hands of the medicine puppet is enough to prove her ability.

Moreover, the fact that she was able to wipe out a den of thieves with just a knife is enough to prove her chivalrous heart.

Sun Sanniang tucked her knife behind her waist, stood up, clasped her hands in a fist salute to Su Ning and the other two, and said, "Say no more. You saved my life, and I know how to repay kindness!"

"Besides... that old pine tree has a grudge against me. If I don't avenge it, how can I face anyone in this martial world?"

The four of them then continued walking forward.

……

the other side.

Having finally found Li Yuan after going through countless hardships, Chu Sese was also trying her best to persuade him.

Chu Sese witnessed the appearance of the medicine puppet from the very beginning.

Shen Lian killed Chen Li'an and then let the monster devour Chen Li'an's corpse, which is enough to show that the monster must be in cahoots with Shen Lian.

On her way to find Li Yuan, she didn't expect to encounter so many of the monsters that were next to Shen Lian. Adhering to the principle of avoiding them whenever possible, she resolutely refused to provoke them.

Fortunately, the eldest brother's kung fu was superior to theirs, so he had not yet been hit. At that time, Li Yuan was fighting with those things, so she took the opportunity to go and help.

After the two repelled those creatures, they found another place to hide.

"No... absolutely impossible. Don't you and I know what kind of person your senior sister is?"

Li Yuan held the jade pendant Chu Sese had given him, clearly devastated, muttering "impossible" repeatedly.

Chu Sese was almost going crazy. She had witnessed Chen Li'an die right before her eyes. Now, she could see the incredulous look in her senior brother's eyes before he died whenever she closed her eyes.

But the eldest brother didn't believe her?

If she weren't afraid that making a sound would attract monsters, she would have wanted to have a huge fight with him right now.

Li Yuan knew that Chu Sese was emotional, but he couldn't accuse Shen Lian of such a serious crime based solely on Chen Li'an's jade pendant.

We're all from the same school, practicing swordsmanship together since childhood. Aren't we all like brothers?

It's one thing for Shen Lian to kill Chen Li'an, but she also claims that the things on the mountain are connected to her. Li Yuan may not know his junior sister well, but given how delicate and gentle Shen Lian is, she's probably terrified of such a terrifying thing.

Moreover, he couldn't find any reason for Shen Lian to do this.

"Then, take me to see Li'an's body. I can only believe you if I see his body with my own eyes."

Chu Sese wiped away her tears, knowing that this was a compromise between the two of them.

After all, in any dynasty, fratricide could ruin a person.

If she could, she wouldn't want to doubt Shen Lian.

But ironically, she witnessed it with her own eyes...

The two walked quickly, but they did not forget to conceal their tracks along the way. If there were a few scattered people, they would secretly tie them up; if there were groups of people, they would hide.

Before they even reached the place where Chen Li'an died, the two encountered...

Shen Lian.

Chu Sese immediately wanted to confront her, but Li Yuan pulled her back.

"Follow them."

Li Yuan and Chu Sese followed behind Shen Lian, but their destination left them both dumbfounded.

"Miss Tang..."

Chu Sese covered her mouth, afraid of making too much noise.

Tangxi was tied to a wooden stake, dripping wet from head to toe, looking quite disheveled.

If Li Yuangang was unwilling to doubt it just now, his heart was about to sink to the bottom.

He emerged from the bushes, his eyes bloodshot and filled with immense grief. He could barely speak, choking out, "Shen Lian...you really...killed Li An?"
