She is the Side Character! — Watch Her Change her fate!-Chapter 129: From Dutiful Senior Sister to Demon Cultivator 3

Chapter 129: Chapter 129: From Dutiful Senior Sister to Demon Cultivator 3

The Ice Peak Cliff was left with only Ah Chen, and the wind blew around her, howling.

It was very cold, as if it were going to seep into one’s bones.

[Everyone’s so realistic, but still, there’s someone sincere.]997 sighed, [Host, are you alright?]

Even though it knew the host was a big shot and there shouldn’t be any problem, as a system, it still needed to show concern.

Ah Chen: [I’m fine.]

[Does the host want to find a way to leave here? The host has completed missions in several worlds, the shop has already opened, and points can be used to purchase many things.]997 explained dutifully, whether or not the host needed it.

Ah Chen closed her eyes and just lay on the cold ice: [No rush, someone’s watching.]

Just leaving her here and ignoring her, how could that be possible?

Lingxiao Sect lacked no people, even though they knew it was hard to catch her associating with the demon cultivators, they still wouldn’t give up any opportunity.

The demon cultivators in this world were basically no good. Many years ago, they almost destroyed the entire cultivation world, standing above cultivators. Fortunately, righteousness eventually prevailed, and powerful cultivators banded together to eradicate them.

This is why cultivators harbor such hatred for demon cultivators.

It’s human nature.

But demon cultivators couldn’t be entirely eradicated; some slipped through the net, and others joined anew.

Just as there is righteousness, there is evil; where there is good, there is bad.

Ah Chen shifted her posture, sliding her hand into her sleeve, appearing to be affected by the cold, but in reality, her hand inside the sleeve was forming a complex spell. When she finished forming the spell, an illusion array was already set up where she was laying.

Not only did it isolate the biting wind, but to those hidden in the shadows, it appeared she was still lying there, unmoving.

In reality, Ah Chen had already sat up; her body was in poor condition, and she naturally needed to quickly cultivate.

She first examined every part of her body. Apart from her soul, which had been tampered with, everything else seemed fine. Her Dantian was utterly destroyed, and her meridians were completely corroded by demon cultivator’s power.

Might as well become a demon cultivator.

As long as one walks the right path, becoming a demon cultivator does not prevent becoming immortal.

Although everyone clamors to beat down demon cultivators, they need the capability to do so.

Those demon cultivators, who nearly destroyed the cultivation world back then, were different from ordinary demon cultivators. They willingly gave up on becoming immortal and just wanted to dominate the cultivation world, living recklessly, hence acting with no scruples, nourishing on cultivator flesh and blood for pleasure.

It’s a kind of madness: if my path to immortality is difficult, then you should not think of achieving it either, let’s all sink into oblivion together.

Todays’ cultivators despise demon cultivators, and it’s human nature to kill them at the sight of one.

They are afraid.

Actually before this, whether cultivator or demon cultivator, there were both good and bad amongst them, with some behaving brutally, others emphasizing reasoning and causality, single-mindedly aiming to become immortal.

Ah Chen didn’t hesitate to become a demon cultivator for another reason—the hidden demon cultivator had left something with her, seemingly something valuable she could use.

If it weren’t for this item, she wouldn’t be able to stop the powerful members of Lingxiao Sect from soul-searching the commissioner.

As soon as Ah Chen arrived, she had enveloped this item with her divine soul, observing the people present, none of whom showed any surprised reaction.

She spread her palm open, and in it lay a black but radiant pearl, filled with frantic energy.

It was the power of a demon cultivator.

Let’s call it the Demon Pearl.

Though this is a bitter cold place, aside from the bone-chilling sensation, it’s actually an excellent place for cultivation.

And no one comes to disturb.

Ah Chen sat cross-legged, closed her eyes, and grasped the Demon Pearl to start cultivating.

She could sense that this was an extraordinary item; she didn’t even need to absorb spiritual energy from nature, but could directly absorb the energy inside, thus not alerting those outside.

That hidden demon cultivator had indeed sent her a good item.

Otherwise, she’d have to figure out how to get out to cultivate.

When one’s cultivation base is low, absorbing nature’s spiritual energy doesn’t have much impact, but even a slight increase would cause each breakthrough to mobilize the spiritual energy around, and it would be hard not to draw attention.

"No movement?"

"Several days now, she’s just been lying there, no reaction whatsoever. She was just at Foundation Establishment Perfection, and now completely ruined, it’s more surprising if there was movement." The steward keeping watch at Ice Peak Cliff said. 𝚏𝗿𝗲𝐞𝚠𝕖𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝕖𝚕.𝚌𝗼𝗺

Yin Tianyun glanced at Zou Yi and other Peak Masters and Elders, opening his mouth: "Demon cultivators aren’t that foolish. She has probably been abandoned, and we can’t soul-search her. The demon cultivators, unafraid of secrets being revealed, might even hope we soul-search her, watching her soul be scattered."

Whether this disciple was implicated by the demon cultivators, or truly connected with them, her fate was decided.

"Still, keep an eye on her," Yin Tianyun added, "Just in case, don’t let demon cultivators exploit a gap. The lesson from many years ago, when demon cultivators taught the entire cultivation world, must not be forgotten.

Even if not all demon cultivators are bad, that event back then left a deep psychological scar on all cultivators. Everyone is afraid.

So, worry about demon cultivators returning, and simply kill on sight until they no longer dare to show themselves.

"Has anyone noticed anything new these few days?" Yin Tianyun asked.

They cared about Yun Chen being detained at Ice Peak Cliff, but not too much. They all knew it was impossible for Yun Chen, with her cultivation, to plot anything.

Likely, some demon cultivators had infiltrated.

Dealing with Yun Chen had two motivations: to account for what happened and to deceive the demon cultivators in the background.

But demon cultivators are always cunning, and the other side might not fall for it, weary of the failure at Lingxiao Secret Realm earlier, they might refrain from making any moves for a short while.

It’s possible they’ve already fled.

But there is no help for it—they must sweep clean their sect.

Zou Yi said: "I checked inside and out at Spirit Fire Peak and each disciple has been inspected, none linked to demon cultivators."

Everyone else had similar results.

"The demon cultivator likely fled," someone said.

Another chimed in: "This time, we’ve startled them, probably won’t dare for now, at least not for a short while."

Yin Tianyun said: "Regardless, be more watchful from now on, especially at the forbidden area, the defensive formation needs upgrading, and more people for guarding."

The others dispersed, and Lin Mingxi approached Yin Tianyun.

"Master."

Yin Tianyun’s eyes softened: "How is your injury?"

"I’m alright now." Lin Mingxi hesitated for a moment, then said, "Master, I believe Senior Sister Yun is innocent, she couldn’t possibly be colluding with demon cultivators. Even if she did something before, it must be the demon cultivators’ trick."

She understood this; how could Master and the Peak Masters and Elders not see it?

Yin Tianyun shook his head: "Don’t mention her anymore in the future, lest you invite trouble."

"And do not visit her," he warned. "Don’t think I don’t know what you’re planning, waiting for the situation to calm down, then going to see her, maybe bringing her some healing elixirs? Xi’er, you cannot be willful. I am not blaming you, but getting involved with demon cultivators brings no benefit."

Lin Mingxi bit her lip, appearing very reluctant.

She clutched her sleeve: "But I promised Senior Sister Yun, I would visit her."

"Master, I cannot be a person who breaks their word."

"I must go."

Yin Tianyun, naturally, would not allow it. Coldly, he said, "Write a letter explaining why you can’t. If you don’t agree, I won’t have anyone deliver your letter either."

Lin Mingxi’s eyes reddened, but she had no choice but to agree.

Ah Chen received a letter from a deacon disciple, written by Lin Mingxi.

Its main point conveyed that the other had no way to fulfill the promise to visit often, but would still try to find a way, and hoped she would persevere.

[She probably cares the most for the commissioner.]997 sighed, [She really isn’t afraid of getting involved with demon cultivators, quite bold.]

Ah Chen closed her eyes, chuckling: [Aren’t you recruiting newcomers? How’s that going?]

[Hehe, signed two, they just entered the mission world, and I took a moment to check on the host.]This indeed is the best host; although he valued newcomers, his most concern remained with the esteemed host before him.

[Seeing the host is fine, I feel relieved, I’ll go watch them to avoid mistakes.]

Ah Chen: [Alright.]

Ah Chen continued to cultivate.

In the blink of an eye, an entire year passed.

The investigation on demon cultivators by the Lingxiao Sect, naturally yielded no results.

The fact that Yun Chen could hold on for so long surprised many.

But others felt relieved.

Returning from outdoor training, Ling Kewei was much more stable than a year ago. He stood on Spirit Fire Peak, looking at Ice Peak Cliff, with his dark eyes deep in thought.

"I heard Second Senior Brother was fortunate enough to meet Ying Jianjun during his trip and witnessed him slay demon cultivators. Being able to wipe out a demon cultivator hideout with a single sword, perhaps only Ying Jianjun can, daring to go alone." Kong Xue walked over.

Seeing Ling Kewei staring at that place, she couldn’t help but look too.

No one expected Fourth Junior Sister to hold on for a year, but probably she’s also at her end.
