The sky curtain makes you a useless class monitor, yet you act arbitrarily for eternity?

on the screen.

Jiang Liyu bent down and picked up Ye Chen, the blood-covered boy.

The boy's wounds were still bleeding, but his fingers were still tightly gripping the old snakeskin bag.

Jiang Liyu glanced down and her brows furrowed almost imperceptibly.

She raised her hand and formed a hand seal.

"Whoosh—"

A flash of white light appeared on the snow.

The two figures disappeared at the same time.

The wind and snow quickly covered the ground again, leaving only a few drops of blood that had not yet frozen.

Not long after.

Two hunters wearing deerskin coats followed the trail of blood in the snow.

They carried hunting rifles, their footsteps crunching on the snow.

The young hunter stopped where the bloodstains had disappeared, his face full of confusion.

"what?"

"Why does it end here?"

He looked up ahead, his voice tinged with unease.

"Dad, look, these footprints are human footprints."

The older hunter crouched down, wiped some blood from the snow, and slowly rubbed it between his fingertips.

The bloodstains were still warm.

He glanced around.

The dense forest was silent; there were no traces of wild beasts dragging their prey on the snow, nor any footprints of large monsters.

The young hunter lowered his voice.

"Dad, do you think that person might have been carried away by a tiger?"

"Should we report this to the police?"

The old hunter stood up and patted him on the head.

"Are you blind?"

"Where are the footprints of a large insect around here?"

The young hunter covered his head, not daring to utter a sound.

The old hunter looked around.

"They were most likely rescued by the martial arts master."

"Then we..."

"go back."

The old hunter turned and left.

"Let's pretend today's events never happened."

"These matters concerning martial arts masters are not something ordinary people like us can meddle in."

"oh."

The young hunter quickly followed.

The two footprints gradually disappeared into the distance and were soon buried by the heavy snow.

The scene changes.

On the snow-covered mountainside, a small wooden cabin stands alone in the woods.

The snow outside had piled up to the windowsill.

Ye Chen lay on the bed.

His body was wrapped in layers of bandages, revealing only his pale face; he looked like a mummy.

Jiang Liyu sat on a futon not far away, her eyes closed, quietly regulating her breathing.

The firewood in the stove made a slight popping sound.

A long time passed.

Ye Chen's finger twitched.

He tried to turn over, but the pain spread from his chest all the way down to his waist and abdomen, and even breathing was painful because of his broken spine.

"hiss……"

He couldn't help but gasp.

"woke up?"

Jiang Liyu opened her eyes.

Ye Chen turned his head and finally saw the situation inside the room.

I was rescued.

Moreover, the person who saved him was right next to him.

not good!

Ye Chen barely paused before bracing himself against the bed to sit up.

The scabbard was brought sideways and pressed against his shoulder.

Jiang Liyu didn't exert any force on her wrist, but Ye Chen could no longer move.

"If you don't want to end up paralyzed, don't move."

A cool, clear voice entered my ears.

Ye Chen remained frozen on the bed.

Then, he saw Jiang Liyu's appearance clearly.

Her long, icy blue hair cascaded down her shoulders.

The white clothes were spotless.

With her cold and beautiful features and slender figure, she sat amidst the firelight and snow, without a trace of the heat of the moment.

She sat by the fire, yet not a speck of dust clung to the hem of her clothes.

Ye Chen blinked.

He had seen many powerful figures in the Zhenguo Army, but he had never seen anyone with this kind of temperament.

This is not a general in the military camp.

This is an immortal!

"Um……?"

Jiang Liyu frowned slightly as she watched his constantly changing expressions.

What's this kid thinking?

Ye Chen stared at her for a long time before suddenly speaking.

"Fairy sister, did you apply medicine to my wound just now?"

"Um."

"so……"

Ye Chen's gaze swept from the bandages to Jiang Liyu's face, and his eyes gradually brightened.

"Did you just see my whole body?"

The room fell silent for a moment.

Jiang Liyu tightened her grip on the sword.

Ye Chen was completely unaware of the danger.

"Fairy sister, you saved me and treated my wounds."

"I've always been someone who repays kindness! So! In this life..."

"I will only marry a fairy sister!!!!"

The temperature inside the room suddenly dropped.

A chill rose from Jiang Liyu's body.

She closed her eyes and spoke to the system in her mind.

"system."

"Can we change our target?"

[Ding! The target cannot be changed!]

Jiang Liyu's eyelashes trembled slightly.

She waited for two thousand years.

What they received was a fake with eighty percent of the master's face but a completely different personality.

What's more troublesome is that she also has to personally nurture this imitation into a fully-fledged product.

She really didn't want to stay in this game for even a day longer.

"Fairy sister?"

"Fairy sister!"

"Fairy sister, listen to me—"

"Shut up!"

Jiang Liyu opened her eyes.

The moment the words fell, Ye Chen's throat felt as if it had been sealed by an invisible force.

He tried desperately to open his mouth, but no sound came out.

Ye Chen was taken aback for a moment.

Then, his eyes lit up.

Words become law!

This fairy sister is much better than that old idiot Ye Long!

I was right after all.

As long as we cling to this powerful figure, not only will we be able to escape, but we'll also be able to turn the tables on Ye Long in the future.

Jiang Liyu removed the sword sheath.

"I'll tell you, and you'll listen."

"You just need to nod, understand?"

Ye Chen nodded frantically.

"From today onwards, I am your master."

"clear?"

"Mmm-hmm!"

Ye Chen nodded vigorously, like he was pounding garlic.

[Ding! Successfully recruited target Ye Chen as a disciple.]

[Reward: Advance to a higher realm.]

[Cultivation points are being distributed...]

A cyan aura rose from Jiang Liyu's body.

Her breath rose steadily, and the candlelight in the room tilted outwards at the same time.

next moment.

Jiang Liyu's figure disappeared from the wooden house.

"Boom!"

next moment.

Thunder rumbled from the sky.

Ye Chen lay on the bed, looking out the window at the sky.

The once bright daylight quickly turned dark.

Large, dark clouds pressed in from the end of the mountains, and lightning bolts flashed across the clouds, illuminating the entire snow-capped mountain.

The snow outside the wooden house was whipped up by the strong wind.

The lake, the forest, and the distant mountain ridges were all pressed under a rolling black cloud.

Before the lightning tribulation even struck, the entire world could no longer withstand its oppressive force.

Jiang Liyu stood beneath the thunderclouds.

She held a long sword, her white clothes fluttering in the wind.

Ye Chen's eyes widened.

Is Master about to undergo a tribulation?
