After the time travel, my cheat program disappeared.

The girl was barefoot and dangling in mid-air, holding a rather short sword in her arms.

Her eyes were bright, but they were different from the bright, sun-like eyes of the Fairy Yaotai, which were well-known to the disciples of the "Azure Lotus Sword Sect".

Those eyes... are more like those of the senior sister when she's competing with others.

The hidden sword intent was chilling.

but--

Who is she?

For some strange reason, recognizing the appearance of their own founder is not a required course for disciples of the "Azure Lotus Sword Sect".

After all... other sects would simply pull out a portrait of their leader.

"This is Shi Hongjian, the patriarch of my 'Heaven and Earth' clan, the strongest Dao Enlightenment Realm cultivator in the Nine Provinces and Ten Regions—"

"This is the founder of my 'Taiyi Sect,' the True Lord Taiyi. He is in harmony with Heaven, illuminating the entire universe."

Upon arriving at the "Azure Lotus Sword Sect," the elders looked at the portrait of the loli with her chest puffed out and head held high.

Although it's much more serious than that laughing, hands-on-hips little ancestor statue in the "Tai Xu Secret Realm," something still feels off.

In addition, the "Azure Lotus Sword Sect" did indeed inherit the mantle of the Fairy of Yaotai from a thousand years ago.

The founding master, Qin Ge, was also a direct disciple of the Fairy of Yaotai.

and so--

The disciples of the Azure Lotus Sword Sect often pay homage to the Fairy of the Jade Terrace.

The two girls didn't recognize her, and had no idea, that the barefoot girl dangling in front of them was their founding ancestor, Qin Ge.

Qin Ge didn't say anything, but simply waved in the direction of the girl.

The long, narrow scroll floated out directly from under the girl's body.

"You..." The girl was about to struggle when she was forced back by the chilling sword intent emanating from Qin Ge, which could cut hair in an instant.

Let alone resist.

The interest I had just developed because of Master Shiyan's scroll painting... all of it went downhill in an instant.

The two girls trembled and huddled together.

Swish swish swish—

The scroll slowly unfurled before Qin Ge.

She was a girl sitting sideways on the edge of the bathtub with her legs bent.

The girl has fair skin.

The thighs were slightly raised, while the bent calves and the insteps were taut and straight.

One hand was braced against the edge of her body, while the other was raised, twirling a gold hairpin.

The golden-red swallowtail butterfly on the hairpin is folding its wings.

Although... the layers of mist rising from the bath obscured the girl's most alluring curves.

Can--

Just looking at the girl's straight calves and arches, as well as the lines of her side profile, is already captivating enough.

But the real finishing touch.

It was the girl's slightly tilted, sideways gaze.

Confused... yet with a hint of alluring softness.

There was no shame or embarrassment.

It seems that the person who takes this perspective has an inextricable connection with her.

It's not hard to imagine... if an ordinary girl got her hands on this scroll, and after seeing it and imagining herself as the viewer, she would be so excited that she would roll around on the bed with the scroll in her arms.

But... for Qin Ge, it was like a bolt from the blue.

Because of... the girl in the scroll.

She had seen it...

She had just seen it.

He had even just sat in that girl's lap and placed his hand on the back of her hand.

Qin Ge made a sword-like gesture with her small hand and gently flicked it.

The scroll turned around in the air, facing the two girls who were huddled together, trembling.

"Is she Shi Yan?" Qin Ge's voice grew colder and colder.

"Uh..." There was no answer.

The two girls' eyes widened as they looked at the scroll; in the comic book, their pupils would have turned into hearts.

Biting her lower lip, Qin Ge clenched her fists.

No answer is needed.

The expressions on the two girls' faces said it all.

"That is what the teacher said."

"That girl standing under the moon, graceful as a startled swan, ethereal as a fairy... that was Shi Yan."

"The girl who rode the same blue lotus with me from Jiaozhou to the Azure Lotus Sword Sect... that was Shi Yan."

Qin Ge clenched his fist tightly, his expression growing colder and colder.

The next second—

The sword intent soared to the heavens.

She appeared on the small sword peak in an instant, her fierce and chilling sword intent sweeping across, almost instantly leveling the clouds and mist that had lingered between the several sword peaks of the "Azure Lotus Sword Sect" for years.

"Teacher's words..."

"Loulan!!"

Qin Ge's consciousness was locked onto Shi Yan.

Even Qin Suhuai, facing the immense pressure of the immortal's divine sense, had her lips turn slightly pale.

However, Shi Yan appeared much calmer.

A sword cleaved through the waves.

Holding Qin Suhuai's hand, Shi Yan slowly walked out of Qin Suhuai's room, looking up at Qin Ge.

Inside the main hall of the Azure Lotus Sword Sect.

Sensing the terrifying sword intent and the overwhelming spiritual energy emanating from Little Sword Peak, the expressions of the elders and the sect leader instantly turned grim.

They don't understand...

Where exactly did things go wrong?

The young master had just been guided by Xiaolin to the "Tai Xu Secret Realm".

The sect leader of the Azure Lotus Sword Sect could even sense that his junior master was just a hair's breadth away from activating the key to enter the Void Secret Realm.

But... where exactly did things go wrong?

How did the Junior Grandmaster discover Junior Master Yan?

"Shiyan!!" Looking at the girl in front of him, who was leaning against him despite his imposing presence, Qin Ge felt even more furious.

She let down her beloved sister, Yaotai.

Time and time again!!

Shi Yan had already seen the scroll that Qin Ge was holding in his hand.

Although he didn't know where Qin Ge had gotten the scroll, Shi Yan still understood why he had messed up.

"Aya, Aya...you've really gotten me into trouble this time."

Looking up at Qin Ge, Shi Yan saw a look of apology on her face and said, "I'm sorry..."

"Lord Qin Ge—"

"I am... Shi Yan."

dong dong——

dong dong dong! !

Qin Ge's heart and lungs almost stopped.

Before him, Shi Yan's slender and graceful figure directly overlapped with that hateful white-haired, flat-chested, short, bastard from a thousand years ago.

A thousand years ago... that guy also had that annoying expression, speaking in the exact same irritating tone...

"I'm sorry..."

"Little Qin Ge—"

"I am... the ruler of Loulan."

boom!!

Qin Ge clenched his fist.

In an instant, a terrifying, turbulent surge of spiritual energy exploded directly from the girl's body.

The terrifying spiritual energy even instantly emptied the normal, free-floating spiritual energy of heaven and earth.

No legal principles were invoked.

Qin Ge simply... purely... relied on his own power to accomplish a feat that ordinary Enlightenment Realm cultivators could only achieve through their domains.

The vast, star-like tide of spiritual energy was so overwhelming that Sheng Nu and Sheng Yan could not even stand up straight.

Even Qin Suhuai could only stand up by holding Ziyan and supporting Shiyan.

Only Shi Yan was facing Qin Ge directly. Although her neatly tied hair was pulled apart by the spiritual energy tide and became messy, she still stood there.
