After transforming into a fairy, I, in my simulation, wreaked havoc in the cultivation world.

[In a desolate mountain tens of thousands of miles away from the Heavenly Profound Sword Sect, you sit cross-legged on the edge of a precipice, quietly absorbing moonlight for cultivation.]

As for Lin Bufan, he has already set off alone to keep his ten-year promise.

[Even the slightest change in each simulation can affect the character's decisions. Just like this time, Lin Bufan once again firmly rejected your colleague.]

His intention was quite clear: he didn't want you to see those unpleasant memories.

This simulation should be the one where your "feeling" for him is the deepest, since you've devoted almost all your attention to him, aside from cultivation.

[Perfect, you don't want to go either.]

Firstly, even though you've sent out the message, whether those big shots are willing to believe it or take action is another matter entirely.

You constantly remind yourself that you are not some chosen one; if you make a mistake, you could lose more than a decade of cultivation time. You are unwilling to take that risk lightly.

Secondly, now is not the time to see Lin Qianqian. Your presence will only widen the rift in their relationship. There's no need to create unnecessary complications at this critical juncture and make the trip to Chanming Prefecture more difficult.

As for whether he'll be jealous?

Hehe~

That's just a vehicle you use to cross the river. You'll carefully choose the most suitable tool and take care of maintaining it, but you'll never have any genuine feelings for it.

All worldly dust turns to dust; I only seek immortality and the path to immortality.

Emotions are too ethereal and intangible; it's the rapidly increasing power within your body right now that truly fuels your quest for immortality.

The next moment, the pure power of the moonlight surged into your body, and a torrent of energy coursed through you.

【"Clap clap clap~"】

A series of soft, cracking sounds emanated from his bones.

After a while, you stretched your body slightly, feeling an unprecedented lightness and strength throughout your body. Your skin also became more resilient and radiant, as if you were wearing an invisible armor.

[I have firmly entered the middle stage of Body Refinement Level Two.]

[Without using any spiritual power, you unleashed a punch solely with your physical body.]

[Boom boom boom!]

The violent wind shattered the boulders in front of them, but the force didn't falter at all; it swept through the entire mountain range with unstoppable force, transforming into a towering shockwave that disappeared into the horizon.

The improvement of physical strength is indeed more captivating than the improvement of spiritual power; this feeling of becoming stronger feels more real.

After a moment of elation, you slowly calmed down.

Looking at the rising sun on the distant horizon, you secretly estimated the time; it should be about right.

Once the specific situation is ascertained, the next step of the operation can begin.

【...】

Three days later, in a bustling restaurant in Yunque City.

You have transformed into an ordinary-looking middle-aged female cultivator, and quietly settled down in an inconspicuous corner.

As the sun began to set, a heated discussion suddenly erupted inside the tavern.

"Have you heard?"

【"......"

"If you keep me in suspense any longer, I'll kill you!"

【"Hehe~"】

The person who spoke gave an awkward laugh, then his expression became much more serious.

"Demonic cultivators roam the area around the Seven Clouds Sect, and it's said there's even a powerful demon at the Nascent Soul stage."

【"hiss!!!"】

A collective gasp filled the restaurant, only to be broken by a discordant voice.

"Fellow Daoist, what kind of sect is the Seven Clouds Sect? We've never heard of it before."

"Pshaw! How would I know?"

The person curled their lip in self-righteous indignation.

"I just overheard the Li family cultivators talking about it on the street. They said the Heavenly Profound Sword Sect dispatched several Nascent Soul True Monarchs who surrounded and killed that demon on the spot."

【"good!"】

In an instant, cheers erupted throughout the restaurant.

Hearing this, a satisfied smile curved your lips, and you felt an extraordinary clarity in your Dao heart.

You silently got up and left the crowd; now it was time to settle another score.

【...】

About half a month later, another intelligence report was delivered to the gates of the major sects.

The city lord of Bailu City is a demon at the early stage of the Nascent Soul realm!

[If they received this intelligence under normal circumstances, they would only find it utterly absurd—how could a Nascent Soul stage demon possibly break through the Demon-Repelling Array?]

However, the accurate prediction last time made all the sects hesitant to directly deny the veracity of the information.

[If it's true, and the demons go on a killing spree, causing an irreparable tragedy, our ancestor will definitely tear them apart alive.]

Therefore, the Nascent Soul sect leaders quickly reached a consensus and unanimously decided to immediately inform the patriarch.

As the instigator, you have already changed your aura several times, concealing your achievements and disappearing into the distance.

[There's no need for them to know; after all, you just want to secretly do something "good" for the cultivation world.]

[A Nascent Soul cultivator lurking in a remote town must be part of a shocking conspiracy. What if he's a demon spy? Wouldn't that be a huge hidden danger?]

[As for the reasons Feng Qiange gave you?]

[Sorry, I don't believe a single word of it. He's definitely a demon spy!]

Three days later, at the same restaurant, in the same location.

"I've heard about it..."

"Get lost, I'll talk to you."

At this moment, another cultivator shoved aside the one who liked to show off, stood up, and said with great pride:

"You've all heard about the battle between Nascent Soul cultivators two days ago, right?"

"Of course! That commotion, wow!"

"You saw it?"

"No, I heard it from someone else..."

"Shut up, all of you!"

The cultivator at the seventh level of Qi Refining slammed his hand on the table, his powerful aura instantly silencing the chattering crowd, who all began to fawn over him.

【"snort!"】

The man gave a soft hum, then continued, seemingly unsatisfied:

"It's said that this was actually a misunderstanding. Everyone initially thought it was a Nascent Soul stage demon, but as soon as several Nascent Soul stage cultivators made their move, the City Lord of White Dew City revealed his identity and was ultimately taken away by a powerful figure from the Heavenly Phoenix Dynasty."

Who exactly is that city lord?

"The Fourth Prince of the Heavenly Phoenix Dynasty!"

[You sat in the corner, scoffing disdainfully. "You, Feng Qiange, are truly cowardly. You were once a Nascent Soul cultivator, why don't you fight them?"]

Thinking of the hand that pierced your heart, you have no choice but to postpone this revenge for now.

Judging by the timeline, Lin Bufan should have about six months to return.

[Perfect timing! With such a major event happening, that elemental vein might be overlooked. After all, those who rushed there are all Nascent Soul stage experts; they wouldn't care about such a treasure.]

[Having caused such a blunder, Bailu City is now a place no one cares about. She can take advantage of the chaos to fish in the shadows and pick up the scraps.]
