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

Inside the magnificent hall, five imposing figures stood tall and straight.

"Ancestor, these five are the strongest among the younger generation."

Luo Chongshan, the sect leader of the Tianxuan Sword Sect, stood beside a woman in a plain dress, his attitude extremely respectful.

【"Da~Da~Da~"】

The woman was none other than Lingxiu Tianjun. Her eyes were closed, and her fingertips were lightly tapping the armrest.

The hall was deathly silent; no one dared to make the slightest sound.

"Lin Qingyu, has she not returned to the sect yet?"

A moment later, she slowly opened her eyes, her gaze falling on an elderly man with gray hair in the corner.

In this situation, even Master Qingming dared not act recklessly, and after rising, he bowed respectfully.

"After his trip to the Heavenly Profound Realm, he never returned."

After speaking, he glanced at a young man in the main hall, his eyes filled with displeasure.

I went out to lead a team, and everyone came back, except for my junior sister, who I lost.

[Noticing his master's gaze, Master Powang assumed he wanted an explanation and quickly stepped forward.]

"Ancestor, Junior Sister is probably trapped in that secret realm. Now that the hundred-year period is approaching, perhaps she will return..."

【"Whoosh~"】

Before the words were finished, two streaks of light suddenly landed outside the main hall.

"Who dares to be so insolent!"

The two disciples outside the hall instantly drew their longswords.

"Ancestor, am I not late?"

The people who have arrived are none other than you and Liu Guanzhi.

"You traitor, come in now!"

Upon hearing the familiar voice, Master Qingming immediately puffed out his beard and glared, but the weariness in his eyes subtly dissipated somewhat.

【"Buzz~!"】

Before you could speak, a terrifying aura locked onto you, and then your figure vanished from the spot.

When it reappeared, it was already in front of Lingxiu Tianjun.

Her cool fingertips gently touched your forehead, and after a moment, her brow furrowed slightly.

"Mid-stage Golden Core?"

[Hiss~!]

Master Qingming gasped.

The initial joy in her eyes vanished quickly, replaced by deep self-doubt.

My disciple refined my Qi, my disciple established my Foundation, my disciple has reached the Golden Core stage, and now my disciple has reached the Golden Core stage, while I remain only at the Golden Core stage...

Sadly, no one understands his sorrow.

Seeing the displeasure on your face, you quickly looked at Liu Guanzhi, who had just entered the main hall, and raised your chin again.

"Ancestor, this is my Daoist partner, who is willing to join the Heavenly Profound Sword Sect in the competition."

Liu Guanzhi had a multitude of methods, and he also had some knowledge of swordsmanship.

【"oh?"】

Upon hearing this, Lingxiu raised an eyebrow and fixed her gaze on the black-haired boy.

The next moment, a powerful sword intent rose up within the hall.

Liu Guanzhi's eyes narrowed, and the black sword domain spread out uncontrollably, subtly resonating with the sword intent within the hall.

【"good."】

As soon as she finished speaking, the sword intent in the hall receded like a receding tide, and her gaze returned to you.

"If this is all you're capable of, then you probably won't be able to go this time."

[Crossing the river and then dismantling the bridge!]

But when you see the mockery in her eyes, you realize that this old woman is deliberately picking a fight.

[You silently complained to yourself, and then your blood and energy surged, revealing the aura of a high-level third realm expert.]

【"very good!"】

A hint of a smile flickered in Lingxiu's eyes, and she nodded in satisfaction.

"That's more like it."

With a flick of her sleeve, five jade tokens flew out and landed in the hands of you, Liu Guanzhi, and the three figures below.

"This is the pass for the Primordial Sword Court."

The other two figures' expressions changed, but they dared not raise any questions.

"Ancestor, aren't you coming with us?"

A chill ran through you, and you looked at her pitifully.

"What if we get bullied?"

"Do you want to go watch the kids play with me?"

[Lingxiu Tianjun gave you a disgruntled look, then slowly transformed into spiritual light and vanished into the void.]

"Stop reading those useless stories."

You stared awkwardly at the empty head table, wishing you could disappear into the ground.

[Liu Guanzhi appeared beside you unnoticed, a barely perceptible smile playing on his lips.]

You glared at him fiercely.

"What are you laughing at? Let's go!"

[What you don't know is that a figure, who had remained silent all along, quietly watched the direction you left in, a faint trace of loneliness flashing across his eyes.]

Three days later, a magnificent flying boat slowly sailed out of the Tianxuan Sword Sect...

【...】

Six months later, your group finally arrived in the Central Plains.

[The details of the journey are unnecessary to elaborate on; with the sect leader Luo Chongshan, a peak Nascent Soul cultivator, leading the team, they navigated each dangerous situation without incident.]

"Is this Yangcheng?"

[Besides you and Liu Guanzhi, two of the three participants in the Taichu Sword Tournament are acquaintances of yours.]

[One is your senior brother, the runaway Gu Chengyi; the other is naturally Lin Bufan.]

[The one who spoke at this moment was Qingheng Fairy, ranked first on the Heavenly Profound Sword Sect's Fairy Ranking, with a peak Golden Core cultivation level.]

【"good."】

Luo Chongshan nodded slightly.

"The outer regions of Zhongzhou are controlled by the two great immortal dynasties, Taiyin and Taiyang. Yangcheng is the outermost city of Zhongzhou and is also within the sphere of influence of the Taiyang Dynasty."

[Upon hearing this, your eyes flickered slightly. No wonder the fire-attribute spiritual energy within this city is exceptionally active; it seems the Sun Dynasty must possess a treasure suitable for you.]

"What's wrong?"

[Liu Guanzhi's voice rang in my ears.]

[Tsk~ This thoughtful and warm-hearted guy always notices subtle changes in others.]

So you spoke your mind.

A moment later, Liu Guanzhi looked at you with a strange expression.

"You may have forgotten that you almost burned down the capital of the Sun Dynasty for the Crimson Sun Heavenly Fire."

Before you could react, his voice rang out again:

"If it weren't for the gentle nature of the Sun Dynasty's patriarch, we would have perished there."

[Of all the words Liu Guanzhi said, you only heard four:]

【Crimson Sun Heavenly Fire!】

[It sounds like a good product.]

"What level of cultivation do we have to be here to steal things?"

[You quickly continued to ask telepathically.]

"Star-Guiding Realm."

【“Kuji-nii~”】

Upon hearing this tone, Liu Guanzhi's brow twitched, and a bad feeling immediately arose in his heart. He quickly advised:

"We were lucky that time; we compensated them with a treasure they needed. Otherwise, the Sun Dynasty would never have let us off the hook."

It's not that he's cowardly, but rather that your style of doing things has always been unconventional.

[Perhaps because of his rebirth, things are much better in this life; he truly doesn't want to relive his past life.]

"You must be tired after traveling non-stop for so long, so why don't you rest here for the night?"

At this moment, Luo Chongshan's voice came, interrupting your coquettishness and allowing Liu Guanzhi to quietly breathe a sigh of relief.

You looked up unhappily and saw three large characters written on the signboard in front of you:

【Forget-Worry Pavilion!】
