The black cat, which had been systematized, cursed the "fuck the hell" in its mind, but out of fear, it huddled in Yang Pingsheng's arms, not daring to show its head.

"Sir, you also keep cats?"

"Yes, we've had them for a while now. You saw them in the yard, didn't you?"

“That’s right…” Xu Anlu squinted her eyes.

After examining it closely, her eyes sharpened, and she said, "But for some reason, I always feel like it has never made a sound."

"Meow~"

As soon as he finished speaking, the black cat in Yang Pingsheng's arms started meowing.

"What? It really is just a black cat." Xu Anlu's eyes softened, and she smiled, "I thought..."

She didn't finish her sentence, but there was a hint of murderous intent in her voice.

The black cat shuddered and meowed even louder.

The three people and the cat boarded the carriage. Wen Shihan and Xu Anlu each sat down next to Yang Pingsheng, while Xiaoyu didn't argue with them and simply sat down opposite them.

The carriage slowly began to move, bumping along the way. When their eyes met, even the air seemed to grow cold. The black cat dared not look up and could only huddle in Yang Pingsheng's arms.

It's summer, so why is it so cold?

As the carriage left the city and traveled some distance into the suburbs, Yang Pingsheng yawned. Wen Shihan, who was standing beside him, noticed and asked softly, "Brother, are you very sleepy?"

"Hmm... I didn't sleep well last night."

"If you're sleepy," Wen Shihan said with a smile, "brother, why don't you rest your head on me and take a nap?"

Xu Anlu gritted her teeth; she was a step too slow.

Xu Anyin couldn't stand it anymore and shouted that he wanted to control his body and launch a beautiful counterattack, but Xu Anlu refused.

It's okay, there's still plenty of time today, she still has a chance.

Having broken through to the Earth Immortal realm yesterday, Yang Pingsheng was quite exhausted, and with the carriage jolting along, he was indeed feeling rather sleepy. At this moment, Wen Shihan extended an invitation with a smile, and he found it hard to refuse.

"Then I'll lean against it for a while."

"Come on, brother."

Yang Pingsheng closed his eyes and rested his head on Wen Shihan's shoulder. Wen Shihan smiled and stroked his brother's hair, then glanced coldly at the black cat.

The systematized black cat shuddered and immediately left Yang Pingsheng's arms, jumping to Xiaoyu's side.

A delicate fragrance wafted through the carriage. Yang Pingsheng closed his eyes and drifted off to sleep.

In my dream, there was snow.

one slice.

one slice.

Another one.

Each snowflake, cool and refreshing.

In a daze, he seemed to have arrived in the Fourth World, a world full of white snow, where the wind and frost made the thatched hut sway precariously.

A heart-wrenching voice cried out:

"mother!"

At that moment, the world of white snow shattered.

Immediately afterwards, the phantoms overlapped, nine figures rising from low to high, and the fourth face was becoming clear.

Memories surged, and the woman knelt down, shamelessly saying:

"I, Su, have wandered for half my life, only regretting that I have not met a wise ruler. If you do not abandon me, I am willing to take you as my godfather!"

Startled awake, Yang Pingsheng opened his eyes and saw Wen Shihan's face. She was gently stroking Yang Pingsheng's hair and said, "Brother, we've arrived."

The carriage stopped, and sunlight streamed in from outside, accompanied by birdsong.

The summer sun was particularly dazzling, and the sound of flowing water gurgled as it flowed over round, bulging pebbles. The stone bridge above stood alone, possessing a secluded beauty.

Not far away, large patches of flowers were in bloom, yellow, red, and purple, with butterflies fluttering among them, a colorful spectacle that was a feast for the eyes.

"Sir, look!"

Xu Anlu climbed high up in a tree, holding several bird eggs in her hand, and excitedly waved to Yang Pingsheng: "They're bird eggs!"

"Put it back, don't do anything reckless."

"Oh~"

Xu Anlu agreed, put the bird eggs back, and then lightly leaped into the flower bushes.

Only at this time would she act like a child again, transforming back into the innocent and naive Xu Anlu.

"Young master, please have some."

Xiaoyu sat next to him, tore off a small piece from the roasted chicken, and offered it to Yang Pingsheng's mouth.

The sizzling chicken was dripping with oil, and its aroma was irresistible. Just as Yang Pingsheng was about to open his mouth, he noticed Wen Shihan staring at him silently.

He smiled helplessly, ate the chicken that Xiaoyu handed him, and then tore off a chicken leg and handed it to Wen Shihan.

Wen Shihan smiled and silently ate the food.

In the peaceful countryside, with its flowing water, fragrant flowers, and delicious food, everyone is enjoying the beautiful things around them, as if time has stood still.

Wen Shihan went fishing, Xu Anlu caught butterflies in the flower bushes, and Xiaoyu gathered firewood. Everyone had something to do, except for Yang Pingsheng.

He looked around and saw the systematically created black cat snoring under the tree. So he picked it up, hid behind the tree, and set up a perception barrier.

The black cat tilted its head and looked at him: "What are you doing?"

Today's suggestion to go out and admire the flowers was utterly stupid. It didn't want to be with these female villains, but Yang Pingsheng had just broken through to the Earth Immortal realm and needed its help with some things, so it had no choice but to go along.

Holding back her anger, the black cat's words were naturally not so gentle. She angrily stretched out her claws: "Trying to coax me isn't that easy."

"A phantom has appeared."

"Of course, if you're nicer, it's not bad... huh?"

“The phantom appeared while we were in the carriage,” Yang Pingsheng said calmly. “I can sense that the female villain from the fourth world is coming.”

The black cat pondered for a moment, then decisively raised its paw.

"It doesn't matter, I'll surrender."

Chapter 126 People from the Wan Jin Society Arrive

There's really no other way.

Now, it can't replenish its energy, and it can't contact the Heavenly Dao. Forget about giving Yang Pingsheng strength, it's a problem to even protect itself.

"Surrender for what!?"

Yang Pingsheng knocked off its two claws, exasperated. "I'm asking you, the female villain in the fourth life was a mortal, right?"

The black cat nodded: "Not bad."

"I don't have any grudge against her, do I?"

"Logically speaking, no."

"She's such a profit-driven person, there's no reason for her to have deep feelings for me, is there?"

"That's how it should be."

"She doesn't resemble Xu Anlu or Xu Anyin, so there's no way I could have mistaken her for someone else, right?"

"That's natural."

"If that's the case," Yang Pingsheng asked, "why should I be afraid of her?"

The black cat slapped his thigh: "Damn, that makes sense!"

If we were to rank the nine female villains by their raw strength, the fourth female villain would undoubtedly be the weakest. (Note that this only refers to raw strength, not threat level.)

Xu Anlu is not an ordinary mortal in some respects. She is able to comprehend the traces of the Great Dao, and with the assistance of Xu Anyin's soul, after the fusion, she can unleash the combat power of a True Immortal and fight Luo Benmo to a standstill.

The fourth female villain is a complete mortal.

She has neither noble royal blood nor a naturally gifted immortal body. She rose from humble beginnings and started from nothing. Among all the female villains, she is the most ordinary one.

Wen Shihan and Luo Benmo both had tragic childhoods, as did the female villain in the fourth life. However, the difference is that Wen Shihan and Luo Benmo escaped their circumstances by becoming immortals, while the female villain in the fourth life, although she also escaped her circumstances, did not choose the path of becoming an immortal.

From beginning to end, she was just a mortal.

Even though she was just a mortal, she still managed to dominate the protagonist of the Destiny, even forcing her to commit suicide as an apology. The difficulty of dealing with her was so great that even the will of the world found it challenging.

So, Yang Pingsheng arrived.

"I think she's the one who has the least reason to keep bothering me."

"That's true, but..."

The black cat didn't finish speaking.

But, what if?

Who knows what unexpected changes happened in the shadows? Not to mention Yang Pingsheng, even the system didn't expect that in the end of the third life, Xu Anlu and Xu Anyin would have their identities switched, catching it completely off guard.

"No matter what, still..."

Before he could finish speaking, the black cat's fur suddenly stood on end.

"Wait a minute, something's not right!!"

It leaped onto Yang Pingsheng's shoulder in a flash, baring its teeth and raising its tail high like a black antenna.

The perception barrier didn't react, and Yang Pingsheng didn't feel anything was wrong. He looked up and saw that not far away, Xu Anlu was still chasing butterflies, Xiaoyu had roasted another chicken, and Wen Shihan was wading in the river. The three of them were doing their own thing, and everything seemed peaceful.

Is there a problem?

"No...look at them, don't they look strange?"

Yang Pingsheng then realized the problem.

Xu Anlu was engrossed in chasing butterflies, tumbling among the flowers, murmuring something. Xiao Yu smiled gently, looking at the roast chicken with a happy expression, seemingly lost in thought. Across the river, Wen Shihan splashed into the water, soaking himself, and seemed to be singing something.
