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

The stone house was in complete disarray, with overturned tables and chairs and miscellaneous items scattered all over the floor.

Amidst this chaos, only the large, carved nanmu bed, seemingly appearing out of nowhere, stood firmly in the center of the room, a stark contrast to the simple, dilapidated stone house.

[Liu Guanzhi had already woken up. Looking at the girl sleeping soundly in his arms, a complex expression flashed across his eyes.]

He did notice something amiss, but looking at the glaring crimson stain on the sheets... it was too late to say anything then.

Whether it's amnesia or memory confusion is no longer important; the joy of finding a loved one again, even exceeding one's wildest expectations, is what matters.

In this life, he will absolutely not allow himself to fail.

Moreover... Liu Guanzhi keenly noticed that his absorption rate of spiritual energy had suddenly increased significantly. He immediately guessed that you might have a special constitution, and felt even more guilty towards you.

【"Eek..."】

The girl let out a very soft moan, and her slowly opening eyes still held a layer of dazed confusion, as if she had just woken up.

As her gaze gradually focused and she saw the boy so close to her, the girl's fair face instantly flushed crimson.

"How about it, Lao Liu? I didn't lie to you, did I?"

But that shyness vanished in an instant. You let out a soft snort, raised your hand, and punched the boy in the chest, your tone brimming with undisguised smugness and pride.

"If you dare to shirk responsibility again, then... um?"

Before your little mouth could finish speaking, a familiar, burning heat enveloped you, silencing your unfinished words.

You widened your eyes slightly, paused for only a moment, and sensed that there was still a lot of unrefined passion within you. So you symbolically pushed back twice, and then went along with it, letting go of your strength.

In this simulation, you plan to temporarily disregard the matter of your spiritual root and instead dedicate all the stored emotional energy to improving your cultivation, striving to break through to the Golden Core realm.

Using Foundation Establishment cultivation to face the system's mission ten years from now in the real world is clearly not a safe bet.

Although you've investigated and found that only Foundation Establishment disciples are allowed to participate in the battle for the Heavenly Profound Realm, in this dog-eat-dog world of cultivation, using the foundation of a higher realm to crush an opponent of a lower realm is always the safest rule.

A cultivator who cannot defeat enemies in adversity is not a good cultivator.

【...】

The door opened again two weeks later.

You leaned limply against Liu Guanzhi's chest, exuding an air of languid ease.

[At the same time, you secretly vowed in your heart that from now on you would be content to be a salted fish that only knows how to cultivate.]

After all, even those fleeting words exchanged during their passionate encounter in bed had subtly and meticulously planned out your cultivation path for a long time to come.

Besides, you've put in so much hard work lately; it would be an absolute injustice not to rely on this powerful figure.

【"Meow!!!"】

[Little Black darted into your arms like an arrow, nuzzling your chest with its fluffy head and purring softly, as if accusing you of "starting something and then abandoning it."]

【Haha~】

You give an awkward smile; you've truly forgotten all about the little guy...

So you gently patted Zhou Xiaohei's head and soothed it for a while before it calmed down again, snuggling into your arms and falling fast asleep.

Seeing that you had finally finished your chores, Liu Guanzhi raised his hand, a faint light flashing at his fingertips, and dispelled the array that isolated the outside world.

At this moment, a large crowd had gathered outside the courtyard of the stone house. Standing at the forefront was the old man who had tested you for the presence of Gu worms last time, and he was also the chieftain of the Youquan tribe.

Seeing the formation disappear, everyone looked towards the courtyard with heightened vigilance and scrutiny.

The old man's gaze swept over the two of you, finally settling on Liu Guanzhi, his expression quite complex.

"Liuwa, about your parents..."

[Liu Guanzhi slightly raised his hand, and an invisible pressure instantly blocked the clan leader's unspoken words.]

Now that he's been exposed, he's too lazy to question the rights and wrongs of the past, and instead turns his gaze to you in his arms.

"Whatever you want to do, I'll support you."

You didn't even bother to glance at the various expressions on the faces of those around you; you simply snuggled closer into his arms, giving the clearest answer with this undisguised dependence.

Seeing this, Liu Guanzhi's lips curled into a barely perceptible smile. His gaze swept across the crowd, finally settling on a father and daughter.

[It was Lando and her father.]

He glanced at you in his arms again, hesitated for a moment, and then spoke in a calm tone, yet with an undeniable air of authority.

"Hand over everyone involved in that operation to me, or leave them all dead."

Upon hearing this, many people's expressions changed, and they wanted to refute it, but they were overwhelmed by a powerful spiritual pressure far exceeding that of the peak Foundation Establishment stage.

Without a word, you attacked. Three crimson beams of light tore through the air, instantly piercing several restless figures.

The stench of blood instantly filled the crowd, plunging the scene into a deathly silence.

Based solely on the clan chief's few words and a glance around Liu Guanzhi's dilapidated residence, you've managed to deduce roughly the entire sequence of events.

It seems that this powerful being, reborn and returning, also endured an extremely difficult period of hardship before truly rising to prominence.

A surge of righteous anger rose within you.

Of course, you wouldn't miss this opportunity to rapidly increase your favorability rating.

You gently broke free from Liu Guanzhi's embrace, and an even more overwhelming pressure, like a tsunami, poured out, causing everyone present to kneel weakly, almost prostrate on the ground.

"If you can't understand what my husband is saying, then this humble woman knows a little bit of martial arts."

[Husband?]

Everyone present was shocked. This terrifying female cultivator, whose strength was unfathomable and who could easily suppress the entire scene, was actually the wife of the least talented person in the clan?

But when they furtively glanced up and met Liu Guanzhi's calm and composed expression, their last shred of hope vanished.

Even if it isn't true, they seem to have no other choice in the face of such blatant favoritism.

At the forefront of the crowd, the chieftain of the Youquan tribe was utterly stunned.

His previously rosy complexion immediately turned ashen, as if he had aged considerably in an instant.

He took a shaky step forward and bowed deeply towards you.

"Senior, our Youquan tribe is willing to serve you at your behest. We hope you will show mercy and spare the innocent."

【"Hmph~"】

You gave a soft snort, offering no reply, but instead turned to look at the silent boy who had been watching you, a smug smile playing on your lips.

That smile was so radiant and bright, like the morning sun breaking through the heavy gloom, instantly dispelling the chilling atmosphere and bloodshed that had just filled the courtyard.

[Liu Guanzhi stared blankly at this scene.]

In a daze, the girl standing before him, supporting him, perfectly overlapped with the girl in his memory who had pulled him from the icy stream...

...
