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

"Hmph! You vixen."

Yang Yan was still somewhat unhappy.

He's not stupid; he vaguely senses that you've been manipulating him all along.

"The vixen has been subdued by Brother Yang Yan!"

[You've abused your fairy privileges and are simply cheating.]

【"Sigh~"】

Yang Yan sighed helplessly, and could only gently pull you into his arms. Since ancient times, even heroes have found it hard to resist the charms of a beautiful woman, let alone such a stunningly beautiful enchantress.

He loved Bai Youyou, but his sincere feelings, unwavering for over a decade, were trampled upon so cruelly, and he was truly exhausted.

After a long pause, Yang Yan cut to the chase and asked:

What do you ask for?

He paused before continuing.

"As long as you don't harm Master, I'll try my best to help you with other matters."

Upon hearing this, a fleeting look of surprise crossed your eyes.

Based on your observations these past few days, this person has an exceptionally keen sense of things other than emotions.

[Take your identity for example, he's been sticking to it and won't budge. If you hadn't used some tricks, you really would have been silenced. But who knew this guy was so love-struck.]

However, you didn't directly mention the attribute mineral vein, since the information had already been reported and it wasn't something he could decide on his own.

The main purpose of your visit to Bailu City is to investigate three matters.

[The exact location of the attribute mineral vein, information about the city's formations, and Bai Shouzhuo's true strength; ideally, we should also figure out his weaknesses.]

Of course, you wouldn't believe Zhao Yue's one-sided account; you need to see it with your own eyes or receive more concrete information before you can feel at ease.

"Your marriage to Bai Youyou?"

[You didn't make any demands, but instead, like a jealous little woman, you started questioning me.]

Upon hearing this, Yang Yan remained silent for a moment before slowly speaking:

"My master and my father were old friends. Fifteen years ago, they were escorting a shipment of supplies to the prefectural city when they were ambushed. My father sacrificed his life to protect my master. This marriage was arranged between my father and my master before his death."

Seeing his somber expression, you nestled into his arms and whispered softly:

"It's okay, you have me now."

Yang Yan only possesses a mid-level three-elemental spiritual root; let's make do with him! Fortunately, he enjoys Bai Shouzhuo's deep trust, so perhaps he can obtain useful information.

【"good."】

He didn't say much, but simply tightened his grip on your arm.

[Good luck, Xiao Fanzi. Your senior sister hasn't bothered to move for the past three years...]

【...】

Time flies like an arrow, and the days slip by like a shuttle.

Three years have passed in the blink of an eye.

Your secret relationship with Yang Yan lasted for three years.

At your insistence, he resumed his friendship with Bai Youyou, but did not mention the engagement again.

[And Bai Youyou is your friend, that's really exciting...]

[Your body cultivation has been steadily improving during this period, but you've still been somewhat distracted by Yang Yan, that seemingly upright but lecherous man.]

According to your estimate, it will take approximately four more years to reach the first level of perfection.

Three years ago, the Heavenly Phoenix Dynasty sent people to take away the mineral vein, and you took the opportunity to find out the exact location of the attribute mineral vein.

[The core of the formation is in Bai Shouzhuo's hands, and you've subtly inquired about it multiple times with Bai Youyou and Yang Yan.]

Bai Shouzhuo is injured, and his strength has most likely fallen to the early stage of Foundation Establishment.

[You look at the 119 low-grade spirit stones displayed separately in the system space, and steel your heart, deciding to personally test their power, even if it means death.]

"Qianqian, what are you doing standing here?"

At that moment, a pair of hands wrapped around you from behind.

"Brother Yang Yan."

You turned around, smiled sweetly, and asked softly:

"Can I borrow something?"

"Okay, what do you want?"

Yang Yan smiled gently and agreed without hesitation.

[Pfft~!]

The sound of a blade piercing flesh rang out abruptly, exceptionally clear in the quiet night.

"Why...why..."

Yang Yan stared blankly at the woman in his arms, still smiling sweetly. All his strength drained away, and he slowly collapsed forward.

Life is like a game of chess; once a move is made, there's no going back.

"Brother Yang, now that you've embarked on the path of cultivation, you've entered this game of chess. May you have a safe journey."

You sighed softly, letting the blood instantly stain your white dress. Without disgust, you reached out and embraced the corpse, giving it a final act of dignity.

[After obtaining Yang Yan's storage bag, you retrieved the access token from it.]

After a while, a man who looked exactly like Yang Yan strode towards the City Lord's Mansion.

[You didn't go to Bai Shouzhuo, but instead went to Bai Youyou's residence. Given Yang Yan's status in the City Lord's Mansion, you didn't encounter any obstacles.]

"Yang Yan?"

Bai Youyou, who was standing in the courtyard lost in thought, looked surprised.

After all, in the past three years, Yang Yan had never sought her out alone again, especially not at night.

You spoke gently, your eyes filled with apology:

"Youyou, will you still marry me?"

【“!!!”】

The girl was momentarily stunned, staring blankly as the person approached.

This time, the apology in your eyes was a little more sincere.

"I'm sorry."

【"Um?"】

Bai Youyou tilted her head, looking at you with a puzzled expression.

【"Bang!"】

[A moment later, you reappeared, soaring through the air on a flying sword, carrying a girl in a pink dress, and crashed into the main hall of the city lord's mansion like a meteorite.]

[Boom!]

A tremendous sound echoed through the night sky, and an angry shout erupted from the city lord's mansion.

"Who are you, you scoundrel!"

[Like a stone thrown into still water, a thousand ripples spread, and figures rushed towards the main hall at breakneck speed.]

At this moment, two figures faced each other from a distance. Bai Shouzhuo's black robe fluttered in the wind, and the surrounding pressure reached its peak.

But looking at the girl in your hands, he dared not take a step forward.

"Lin Qianqian, whatever your purpose, release Youyou immediately, and I will allow you to leave safely."

Your disguise cannot fool a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

"Bring me the storage bag."

You grinned dismissively, your hand gripping the girl's neck tightly.

【"for you."】

Without hesitation, Bai Shouzhuo flung out his storage pouch. Just as you were about to catch it, a figure appeared before you as if by teleportation.

In an instant, the hairs on your body stood on end.

Damn it! I was careless!

[This isn't some injured and fallen early-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator; it's clearly late-stage Foundation Establishment!]

Before you could even process the errors, you reached out and grabbed the storage bag.

The next moment, an overwhelming pressure descended, everything went black, and you completely lost consciousness.

【you are dead! 】

[Simulation Ended]

"Damn! Old silver coin!"
