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

【"court death!"】

The boy was stunned for a moment, then his already unpleasant expression turned completely grim.

"You're the one who's asking for it!"

Lingxiu glared at you, her imposing manner undiminished.

"You allowed the clear evidence of a demonic spy to go unpunished, and instead you fabricated charges to frame my Heavenly Profound Sword Sect disciples. Venerable Han Yuan, do you think you can control everything within this sect?"

"Our ancestor is mighty!"

[Keep your voice down.]

"Shut up."

Lingxiu flicked your forehead, but there was little blame in her tone.

You gave an embarrassed smile, covered your head, and obediently hid in your ancestor's arms.

It really makes me feel safe!

"I guess he was just confused by your words," Han Yuan seemed to recall his opponent, his eyes narrowing slightly as he said in a deep voice.

"Who are you, and why are you interfering in the affairs of my Sword Court without cause?"

【"Hehe~"】

Lingxiu sneered, her words dripping with sarcasm.

"I think you're really getting senile, and your cultivation is truly pathetic. You might as well pass away sooner rather than later, leaving some legacy for your disciples, so you don't embarrass yourself here."

You almost burst out laughing when you saw Venerable Hanyuan's face contorted with rage.

[Our ancestor had a truly sharp tongue; the older generation's insults were definitely more effective.]

"Ancestor, she's from the Heavenly Profound Sword Sect."

Seeing the atmosphere had completely reached a stalemate, the Sword Court Elder, who had been hiding in the distance trembling, quickly spoke up to remind them.

[However, he couldn't help but silently complain to himself, "Didn't that female senior just say...? Could it be that the ancestor is really about to pass away?"]

"Tianxuan?"

[Given Han Yuan's ability to cultivate to such a level, his mentality is naturally quite good.]

[I was only temporarily disturbed by the series of unexpected events, but I'm gradually recovering now.]

"Are you Lingxiu?"

As he finished speaking, a hint of apprehension appeared in Han Yuan's eyes.

"You've actually gone this far?"

"This mere Star-Attracting Realm is nothing to me; I can enter it whenever I wish."

Lingxiu's words grew increasingly arrogant.

"If you don't give me an explanation today, we'll fight to the death at Sword Mountain!"

Upon hearing this, Venerable Hanyuan's expression shifted several times. He glanced at the bloodstains on his arm, took a deep breath, and then cupped his hands in a respectful gesture towards Lingxiu.

"My handling of this matter was indeed inappropriate, but the words of this junior do not prove that Ye Ming is a spy of the Demon Clan."

Lingxiu pulled you out of her arms, gesturing for you to continue your performance.

Suddenly feeling unsafe, you took two steps back, shielding the ancestor in front of you, before looking at the young man not far away.

"Senior, the altar deep within the Sword Inquiry Plain can naturally confirm this."

[At this point, your eyes reddened slightly, and your trembling hand pointed to the still unconscious young man, your voice filled with sorrow.]

"There are also the corpses of four senior brothers from the Sword Court there. It was all the work of this traitor. I urge all seniors to investigate this matter thoroughly!"

His words were exceptionally sincere and moving, bringing tears to the eyes of many Sword Court disciples.

"Please, Ancestor, investigate this thoroughly!"

Suddenly someone shouted, "Did you hear that? That's Qingheng's voice!"

[You liked her post; she's got potential, and she's even trying to create drama for herself.]

"Please, Ancestor, investigate this thoroughly!!!"

Looking at the sounds continuously rising below, you couldn't help but nod inwardly.

[As expected of a sword cultivator, they really dare to speak their mind.]

When you take over the Sword Court in the future, you must reward these disciples who spoke out for justice.

"Then let's go take a look."

Han Yuan glanced at you deeply, then his figure slowly dissipated into the air.

"Ancestor, hurry and keep up! Don't let anyone destroy the evidence!"

[You're getting anxious, hurry up and speak.]

Lingxiu rubbed her forehead, then reached out her hand towards you. You took two steps back, your eyes wary.

Then, everything blurred, and the familiar feeling of weightlessness returned; once again, fate had seized you by the scruff of your neck.

Lingxiu chuckled softly, her wrist twitching slightly.

"If you want to avoid my hand, you'll have to train for thousands more years."

You remained silent.

But you've kept this grudge on the very first page of your little notebook!

The subsequent investigation proceeded flawlessly, thanks to Gu Wudao's meticulous planning; it was a perfect setup.

After a brief discussion, the two Star-Attracting Realm cultivators decided that an elderly cultivator nearing the end of his lifespan would use a soul-searching technique, and the whole story would finally be revealed.

Ye Ming, an early-stage Nascent Soul cultivator, joined the Primordial Sword Court seven hundred years ago.

[Originally possessing mediocre talent, he rose to prominence three hundred years ago, not only becoming the strongest among his peers in combat but also rapidly increasing his cultivation level.]

[In just three hundred years, he broke through from the mid-stage of the Golden Core realm to the Nascent Soul realm.]

The reason his cultivation level could rise so illogically was because he used a forbidden elixir called the Human Essence Pill.

This kind of elixir not only depletes the user's lifespan but also destroys the cultivator's potential.

The vast majority of cultivators in this world spend their entire lives toiling away for resources, not to mention the vast gap in talent.

Knowing he had no chance of breaking through to the Nascent Soul stage in his lifetime, Ye Ming chose to cooperate with the Demon Clan in exchange for elixirs.

Of course, this kind of elixir cannot be taken by everyone. It requires a special constitution called the Fiend Spirit Body to mitigate some of the elixir's side effects.

[From Ye Ming's memories, we learned that this physique can be cultivated, but the mortality rate is extremely high!]

After watching the old man share his memories, you couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

[It seems the Sword Court isn't rotten to the core; at least that seemingly hostile Venerable Han Yuan isn't involved in this matter.]

The simulator warns that this mission is extremely dangerous, and the danger likely stems primarily from Gu Wudao.

That kid is truly resourceful. After we parted ways, he somehow managed to disappear without a trace right under everyone's noses.

[Among them were even two powerful experts at the Star-Gathering Realm.]

【Sigh~】

You sighed helplessly to yourself.

[Originally, you planned to cultivate within the Sword Court for a period of time, hoping to take advantage of the unique features of this place and the large number of sword imprints you acquired to attempt a breakthrough to the fourth realm of swordsmanship.]

However, looking at it now, the improvement in combat power wouldn't have much effect on the Primordial Sword Tournament in reality; more time was needed to understand Gu Wudao.

There's nothing we can do about it.

The higher a cultivator's cultivation level, the more perfect their state of mind will become.

[Feng Qiange exploited a loophole in his technique that time, and as for Liu Guanzhi, there's no need to say more. You almost had the perfect timing, location, and support to succeed by sheer luck.]

Thinking about it this way, you still admire cultivators like Xiao Fanzi who have simple minds.

[So cute~]
