After disappearing for ten years, the junior sister made the entire sect kneel down to welcome her.

Luckily she dodged quickly, or her hand would have been ruined!

As the old saying goes, children and grandchildren have their own blessings (?), so Luo Zhenhuan decided it was best not to interfere.

The chubby junior disciple was happily gnawing on human bones, and the other disciples were not to be outdone.

But things were going well, and there was no self-harm, which reassured Luo a lot.

Suddenly, an extremely powerful force pressed down on Luo Huanzhen.

That is a power that transcends the mundane world.

It's hard to describe; it felt like the power of laws, like the will of heaven and earth... It just forced its way into Luo Huanzhen's mind and exploded.

With a "thud".

It felt like being swallowed up by an unseen behemoth.

The surrounding light dimmed instantly, and Luo Huanzhen's consciousness fell into an endless gray void.

There was no painful tearing sensation, no resistance to spiritual power, only a sense of "naturalness" that made one feel weak all over and unable to resist.

A voice inside her said: Don't struggle, this is what you should see.

There was no sky, no earth.

There was no wind, and there was no sound.

Only the tiny Luo Zhen himself, and a huge mirror in the distance, flowing slowly like mercury.

Luo Huanzhen got up and moved closer to the mirror.

Instead of reflecting her image, the mirror began playing strange images—

In the image, Su Mingyue is at the center of the world.

She is kind, gentle, and exceptionally talented; she is a chosen one favored by Heaven.

She was mistaken for Luo Huanzhen by Lin Yichen and taken back to Xuantian Sect, where she received all the affection that should have belonged to the real Luo Huanzhen.

The Luo Zhenhuan in the mirror is a twisted villain who has been corrupted by inner demons, crawled out of the Ten Thousand Demon Cave, covered in resentment and scars, and has the appearance of a child but the cunning and scheming of an adult.

She was convinced that Su Mingyue had stolen her life and desperately wanted to take everything back.

So he plotted to frame Su Mingyue and suppressed her at every turn.

In the Spirit Mountain Secret Realm, she colluded with the demonic python that dwells in the Canghua Palace to torture Su Mingyue, and relying on her status as the leader, she ordered the sect disciples to ostracize and bully the seriously injured Su Mingyue, and then abandon her.

Unexpectedly, she befriended Liu Ruoci, a genius medical cultivator from Medicine King Valley, because of this.

He then led the disciples of Medicine King Valley back to Canghua Palace, where they skinned and dismembered the demon python, skinning it alive for medicinal purposes.

The sect holds a grand competition once every ten years.

The competition on the field was fierce. Su Mingyue was defeated by Luo Huanzhen and fell to the ground in a sorry state, her eyes red and pitiful.

Upon seeing this, the third senior brother Zhao Qing immediately stepped forward and carefully helped her up, publicly rebuking Luo Huanzhen on the stage for being narrow-minded and deliberately making things difficult for her.

Su Mingyue lowered her eyes sadly and sobbed softly, "It's not my fault, Junior Uncle. I must have done something wrong to make him hate me so much. Please, Master and Senior Brothers, don't blame Junior Uncle..."

The more gentle and tolerant she appeared, the stronger the protective instincts of the crowd became.

The scene shifts and freezes on a cataclysmic event that overturns everything.

Luo Zhenhuan, having been corrupted by his inner demons for a long time, and suffering the backlash from his repeated failed attempts to frame Su Mingyue, finally went completely insane.

She set up a deadly formation, intending to completely settle the score between Su Mingyue and herself.

However, Heaven always favors Su Mingyue.

Liu Ruoci, the young master of Medicine King Valley who had long been deeply in love with her, sensed her distress at a critical moment and broke through the void to come to her aid!

At this moment, Liu Ruoci was surrounded by a faint divine radiance that did not belong to this world—he had already broken through the shackles and achieved the position of Immortal Venerable!

When a celestial being is enraged, the laws of nature will follow.

Liu Ruoci easily dispersed the killing formation, imprisoning Luo Huanzhen like an ant.

He gently helped up the trembling, tearful Su Mingyue, but his gaze toward Luo Huanzhen was as cold as eternal ice.

"This wicked demon has deep roots and has repeatedly taken lives; Heaven cannot tolerate him." Liu Ruoci's voice, carrying the might of Heaven, resounded throughout the Xuantian Sect.

At that moment, Yun Yao resolutely stood in front of Luo Huanzhen.

He faced the newly ascended Immortal Venerable directly, his words resounding: "My disciple Zhenzhen is young and innocent, pure and sincere. If the Immortal Venerable wishes to condemn her, he will surely find a pretext."

His defense was seen by many as blatant favoritism and utter foolishness.

"Grandmaster Yun Yao, how long will you continue to be deceived by this witch!" Senior Brother Lin Yichen was heartbroken and was the first to stand up, pointing his sword at the Supreme Elder he once revered.

"Grandmaster Uncle, Mingyue is kind and has pleaded for mercy repeatedly, but has this demon ever shown any remorse? You cannot remain so stubborn!"

Third senior brother Zhao Qing, fourth senior brother Gong Lian, and fifth senior brother Wen Heng followed closely behind.

Their heartache for Su Mingyue completely overshadowed their reverence for Yun Yao and their last remaining affection for their fellow disciples.

"For the sake of Mingyue, for the sake of the sect's integrity, I have offended my grandmaster!"

With Liu Ruoci's tacit approval or even subtle suppression, the four former disciples who had been instructed by Yun Yao joined forces to launch an attack on Yun Yao.

They didn't want to kill him, but to wake him up.

However, with the help of the Celestial Venerable's laws, the siege turned into a crushing defeat.

"puff--!"

To protect the imprisoned little Luo Huanzhen behind him, Yun Yao endured most of the attacks. His natal magic weapon shattered, and his dantian and sea of ​​qi were destroyed by the combined attack of the righteous anger of his fellow disciples and a trace of divine power from the Immortal Venerable.

The tall, slender body, as green as bamboo, slowly fell to the ground, its cultivation completely dissipated, leaving it like an ordinary mortal.

"Master—!!!"

Both inside and outside the mirror, mournful and desperate cries rang out simultaneously.

Finally, the most cruel and lengthy scene is shown in the mercury mirror.

The little child was skinned alive and had his tendons pulled out, then nailed bloodied to the Demon-Slaying Platform atop the forbidden area of ​​the Xuantian Sect.

The Demon-Slaying Platform receives thunder from the heavens and bone-corroding gales, which wash over it daily.

Nine hundred and ninety-nine days.

Day and night, they endured the torment of being struck by lightning and sliced ​​by the wind.

In the mirror, Luo Huanzhen's screams went from sharp to hoarse, and finally only unconscious twitching remained.

Su Mingyue would occasionally come over, feeling "unable to bear" it, and shed tears through the barrier.

Her suitors comforted her with heartache, saying, "Mingyue, you are just too kind. This is the karma she deserves."

As for Zhiyun Peak, the small wooden house that once belonged to the master and his disciple has long since changed owners and become a poultry shed where Su Mingyue raises low-level spirit beasts.

Yun Yao was imprisoned in the cold pool behind the mountain, his cultivation completely destroyed, and he was left barely clinging to life.

No one remembers that he was once a powerful cultivator who had protected the Xuantian Sect for a long time.

The scene in the mirror abruptly ended the moment Luo Zhenhuan's aura was completely annihilated and his soul shattered on the Demon-Slaying Platform.

Outside the mirror, Luo Huanzhen's small chest heaved violently as he gasped for breath, as if he had just been pulled out of the water.

Master.

Her Yun Yao Master...
