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

Luo Zhenhuan looked completely bewildered: "But it's such a waste not to eat it. The mud isn't dirty... Many people want to eat it but can't."

Like her in the past.

There are many rumors about Luo Huanzhen within the sect, and Ye Rou also knows some of them.

She looked at the little girl in front of her with a pained expression and said softly, "Eat up, you won't be hungry anymore. As for these, don't waste them, I'll take them back to the sect to feed the pigs later."

After saying that, she carefully used the Water-Controlling Technique to wash away the mud and sand, and then packed the fruit away.

Luo Huanzhen turned his head to look at her, making sure that no food had been wasted, and finally a well-behaved smile appeared on his face.

Then he took the fasting pill and fed it into his mouth.

My stomach has stopped rumbling.

"Junior Uncle, are you hungry? If you are, just tell us. There's so much food in front of Mingyue that you can't finish it all."

Su Mingyue was actually quite unhappy that a good show was abruptly interrupted.

But she wasn't playing the villainous character; instead, she was portraying a kind and gentle junior sister. So she stood up and walked over to Su Mingyue and Ye Rou with concern.

Su Mingyue frowned and said softly, "Junior Martial Aunt, if you're hungry, come find me. There's so much food on the table that I can't possibly let you eat it all."

Her feigned concern made Ye Rou uncomfortable.

"No need. I'll take care of Junior Uncle, so there's no need for Junior Sister Su to pretend to worry." After saying that, Ye Rou took Luo Huanzhen's hand and returned to the corner.

She realized that Su Mingyue was condoning Zhao Qing's actions, just as she had previously condoned Lei Ziyue's actions in harming Senior Sister Xiao Fenglan.

Afterwards, she would put on a manipulative act, pretending that she didn't mean to hurt anyone and that her intentions weren't like that.

It's disgusting.

The sect disciples are not clean either.

Everyone was turning a blind eye, letting this poor little thing be bullied, and in order to make the upcoming trip to the secret realm go smoothly, they were shamelessly trying to please the medical cultivators on Su Mingyue's side.

She didn't want to go back to that small group either.

Having chosen to step forward, she was prepared to be resented by Su Mingyue.

They no longer showed her any respect in their words and actions, letting her say whatever she wanted.

Being harshly rebuked by this female disciple with whom she rarely interacted made Su Mingyue feel nauseous and uncomfortable, as if she had swallowed a fly.

She stood there staring at Ye Rou's back, her slender white fingers twisting her handkerchief.

Finally, biting her lip and with red eyes, she went back.

She couldn't help but throw herself into Elder Danhong's arms and cry, "Elder, although Mingyue doesn't like Junior Uncle and wants to see him make a fool of himself, I didn't really want her to eat dirty food. I originally planned to stop her from eating when she was about to, and give her what was on the table instead."

"Junior Sister Ye Rou's standing up for her makes it seem as if we're deliberately bullying and ostracizing Junior Uncle while Grandmaster Uncle is away. It's like she's doing Junior Uncle a favor by doing him a favor... and, and she even spoke of Ming Yue like that..."

"Absurd, laughable. How dare a mere inner disciple speak ill of my Bright Moon?" Elder Dan Hong hugged her and coaxed her as if she were his precious darling.

Zhao Qing felt bad seeing Su Mingyue cry.

He did that to embarrass Luo Zhenhuan, so as to please Mingyue.

Not only did the disciples of this sect ruin it.

And it made Mingyue cry again.

Zhao Qing glanced at Ye Rou, his heart filled with malice, but his face remained as gentle as a breeze.

He casually remarked, "This young female cultivator, is she Elder Leng's disciple from the Inner Affairs Peak? Two of his disciples have come this time..."

The disciple surnamed Yang felt a sudden unease.

He stepped forward and said in a deep voice, "I'm sorry, Ye Rou's matter has nothing to do with... the Internal Affairs Peak. It was her own doing. I have never liked her attitude of trying to show off and sticking her neck out, but she never listens to me."

Su Mingyue quickly stepped in to play the good guy. She wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes and pretended to be strong as she tried to smooth things over: "Elder, Third Senior Brother. One should take responsibility for one's own actions. This is what you taught Mingyue. We can't take it out on others, okay? Okay~~"

After saying that, he gave the disciple surnamed Yang a playful look.

Whisper to him through your mouth: Don't be afraid, I'll help you. The elders and your third senior brother won't blame you.

Neither Elder Danhong nor Zhao Qing could resist Su Mingyue's coquettishness, so they naturally agreed in a doting manner.

The disciple surnamed Yang, who had been trembling with fear, couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief after the crisis was over.

He looked at Su Mingyue with gratitude.

Unexpectedly, Junior Sister Mingyue still remembered his name. Even though she was heartbroken after being offended by Ye Rou, she still thought of pleading for him.

She's really thoughtful and a very nice person...

Compared to Ye Rou, who was whispering to Luo Huanzhen, the disciple surnamed Yang let out a deep sigh of relief.

Since neither of the two healers cared about her in this secret realm, Ye Rou was destined to suffer a major setback.

Moreover, he felt that this stubborn, foolish, and brainless female cultivator, who disregarded their future, was not a good candidate for a future Daoist partner.

Since that's the case, let's just part ways here!

Fortunately, I wasn't affected.

snort!

For the rest of the journey, another disciple began to fawn over Su Mingyue.

Su Mingyue enjoyed the flattery of many male cultivators, and released her charm and goodwill towards each disciple.

Zhao Qing was a little jealous, but because she didn't have a formal title yet, she didn't dare to say anything.

Moreover, whenever he showed even the slightest sign of being bothered, Su Mingyue would put on a disappointed and hurt look, as if accusing him of possessiveness and pettiness.

Zhao Qing was suffering internal injuries from holding it in, and could only bear it herself.

In a corner of the hearse.

Ye Rou watched as Senior Brother Yang openly and secretly competed among the male cultivators, trying his best to curry favor with Su Mingyue, and a mocking smile appeared on her lips.

Fortunately, she did not lose her principles and humanity because of her feelings.

A man like that is not good enough for me.

The journey on the hearse was really boring with nothing to do.

Luo Huanzhen also watched with Ye Rou as Su Mingyue and her admirers interacted.

Suddenly, she tapped her head, as if in a flash of realization, and exclaimed, "Is this the fierce battleground of heroes from those storybooks?"

Ye Rou scoffed: "What kind of battlefield is this? It's like flies swarming around a pile of dung, and maggots crawling around in a cesspool."

Seven days later.

The spirit ship of the Xuantian Sect arrived at the North Sea.

The sea was shrouded in thick fog.

Luo Huanzhen, holding Ye Rou's hand, was squeezed to the edge of the crowd on the shore, where dark, surging waves kept crashing and smashing against the rocks at their feet.

Looking further away, it becomes impossible to see clearly.

It was very quiet around us, except for the excited breathing of everyone.

Elder Danhong stood dignified in the center of the crowd. She glanced at everyone and asked, "Are you ready?"

"Ready!"

Elder Danhong leaped down with Su Mingyue and Zhao Qing, followed closely by the other disciples.

Looking at the thick, inky seawater at her feet, Ye Rou couldn't help but feel a little scared.

In this mysterious North Sea realm, she only has one life and one vial of blood.

No one saved her, no one helped her...

Just then, a soft little hand grasped her palm.

"Sister Ye Rou."

"Be bold, you won't lose. Zhenzhen's here. Xiao Hei's here too."
