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

Han Xuan froze, slowly turning his head to see a bright and beautiful face peeking out from behind the rock beside him.

【Hmm? This looks kind of familiar.】

【"you..."】

"Yes, it's me."

You grabbed his shoulder and yanked him behind the rocks.

Just as Han Xuan was about to break free, he saw your expression suddenly turn serious, your gaze fixed intently on the top of the cliff.

His hand paused, and the next moment he heard a flurry of footsteps.

In this eerie place, a cultivator's divine sense is compressed to its limit. Even with your divine sense, which has been strengthened multiple times since the early stages, you can only barely probe a radius of one zhang around you.

"This place has been discovered; they're concealing their presence."

The soft touch on his arm made Han Xuan stiffen, followed by a suspicious blush spreading from his earlobe to his ear root.

[With your keen eyes, you naturally didn't miss this detail. Your gaze shifted slightly, landing on his flushed earlobes, and a barely perceptible smile played at the corners of your lips.]

Han Xuan awkwardly took two steps to the other side, formed a spell with his hand, and then his aura quickly dissipated.

The redness on the tips of her ears hasn't faded yet.

[Oh? Decades have passed, and you're still so innocent.]

It's a pity that you're all souls now, and the lack of smell and body temperature diminishes your charm considerably.

Otherwise, with her sweet and gentle advances, it would be even easier to control this little Chu Nan.

"Boss, there's a strange cave down there."

Above the cliff, the chaotic footsteps all stopped.

【"Cave?"】

A deep and authoritative voice rang out, clearly belonging to the leader.

He leaned half his body out, looking down the cliff face, while you and Han Xuan, to avoid being discovered, had no choice but to desperately move closer to the bottom of the rock.

The end result was that he, who had been so hesitant, inexplicably snuggled into your arms...

You paused for a moment, then smiled gently, patted him on the back, and said in a low voice:

"Don't be afraid, baby."

【"......"

Han Xuan's expression became incredibly interesting. At that moment, he forgot all about the difference between men and women, and his face immediately turned a deep liver color.

Seeing that he was about to explode, you quickly turned around, and the two of you switched positions instantly.

"Okay, okay, I'm your baby."

You leaned against him, tilted your head back, and gave an embarrassed smile.

Her obedient appearance instantly extinguished most of Han Xuan's anger. He silently closed his eyes, not wanting to say a single word to her.

"There must be some treasure hidden here. Come on, all of you, follow me down to take a look."

[After these words were spoken, dozens of heavy thuds echoed as objects fell to the ground. You and Han Xuan clung tightly together, not daring to move an inch.]

Fortunately, it was just a soul form; otherwise, how repressed would Old Han have been?

Of course, if you weren't a spirit, you wouldn't have done such a thing. Otherwise, such close proximity would inevitably leave you with each other's auras, and if that uncompromising villain sensed it...

You two will both be chopped into mincemeat.

As the footsteps faded into the cave, Han Xuan abruptly stepped back from under the rock, creating distance between you, and expressionlessly straightened his clothes.

"...Thank you very much, fellow Daoist!"

Hearing his gritted teeth, you clutched your clothes, head bowed, and remained silent, feeling wronged.

【? ? ? 】

Han Xuan looked at you with complete bewilderment, and after a moment, asked in confusion:

"What's wrong with you?"

[It would have been better if you hadn't asked. The moment you uttered that question, tears streamed down your face. Large drops fell to the ground, and your pitiful appearance suggested you had suffered a tremendous injustice.]

As for why souls can cry? That's a matter for cultivators, none of you should concern yourselves with it.

Han Xuan froze on the spot.

He opened his mouth, then closed it again, momentarily at a loss for what to do.

He had worked with female cultivators before, but he had never encountered one who could cry so easily; he was truly at a loss.

"She's a girl, and she went to so much trouble to help you, and you still yell at me!!!"

The more you cry, the more you take the opportunity to accuse him of his "crimes."

【"Waaaaah~"】

【"I..."】

Han Xuan raised his hand, wanting to pat your shoulder to comfort you, but then felt it was inappropriate.

I'm so tired, maybe I should leave. I don't even want the treasures anymore.

"Um...they've been in there for a while now. If we don't hurry, they might beat us to it."

After a while, seeing that your crying had subsided, he tentatively spoke.

【"Whoosh~"】

A black figure flashed past him, and the girl who had been crying moments before now stood impatiently in front of the cave, looking at him.

"Hurry up, what are you dawdling about?"

"Huh? Oh..."

Han Xuan was numb. He couldn't understand what you were thinking, nor could he distinguish which version of you was the real you.

But now he only has one thought: grab the treasure and run away as quickly as possible. Even if he doesn't get it, as long as he can get away, that's all that matters.

If you can't tell the difference, that's okay.

If a person can be emotionally swayed by another, nothing else matters except murderous intent.

What you need to do is stir up his emotions and disrupt his composure and rationality; otherwise, he'll easily back up behind you and disappear in a flash...

The cave's interior appeared even deeper and more mysterious than its exterior, seemingly endless.

The two walls are natural black rock, covered with a thin layer of frost crystals.

The further they went, the denser the yin energy became, and even the edges of their robes began to crystallize with tiny ice crystals.

[Light emanated from the depths, flashing alternately in black and white, like the slow breathing of something slumbering.]

The two of you follow the footprints on the ground, slowly making your way through the area explored by the group.

After walking for the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, the passage suddenly widened.

You paused, the sight before you making your breath catch in your throat.

It was an endless, icy underground pool, its water as black as ink, and in the very center of it grew a strange lotus flower.

Its shape is no different from that of an ordinary lotus flower, but it displays two distinct colors, one black and one white, as if the entire lotus flower has been split in two, with clear lines between them.

The left half is entirely dark and deep, as if it could swallow even light; the right half is as white as snow, as pure and flawless as moonlight.

At the same time, strange ripples were continuously spreading from the lotus flower.

[Soul power?!]

[Having cultivated for so many years, even if you don't recognize this mysterious lotus flower before you, you are very clear about one thing:]

This is absolutely an incredibly powerful treasure!

(I haven't been feeling well these past couple of days, I've been really tired, and I haven't been out in ages, so I'm going out for a stroll and getting a haircut while I'm at it... I'll take a break this late tonight~)
