Chapter 293 Gentle Senior Brother 1 (1/2)
Reading Settings
Chapter 293 Gentle Senior Brother 1 The backlash of inner demons, in the last moment of consciousness sinking, Lin Wanwan seemed to see that dazzling golden light again.
That was someone else's master, the Lingjue Sword Master of the Tianyan Sect, who ascended to the Immortal Realm amidst a myriad of rays of light, shattering the void and attracting the attention of everyone.
Celestial music filled the air, and auspicious omens abounded. The entire cultivation world was shaken by this ascension.
She squeezed into the frenzied crowd, gazing up at that unattainable figure, her heart filled with only deep regret and jealousy.
Standing closest to the pillar of ascension light beside the Supreme Sword Master was Liu Zixi, the senior sister of the Hidden Sword Peak of the Heavenly Evolution Sect.
Liu Zixi, dressed in white, was as aloof as the moon, still displaying that nauseatingly calm and indifferent demeanor.
The senior brothers of Cangjian Peak made no attempt to hide their admiration and protection.
They surrounded Zi Xi like stars around the moon, protecting her at the center.
And what about Lin Wanwan?
Lin Wanwan's nails dug deep into her palms, drawing blood, but she felt no pain.
The sect I belong to is located at the bottom of the Tianyan Sect, in a remote and secluded peak with scarce spiritual energy.
Then she thought of that mediocre, eccentric, and nameless master from Hidden Peak, who would always look at her with pity and always scold her for her unstable Dao heart and impure intentions.
And those mediocre senior and junior brothers who loved to cause trouble everywhere only showed indifference towards her.
Since joining Hidden Peak, she has been like dust forgotten in a corner, ignored by everyone.
Her gaze involuntarily followed another figure once again.
Mu Yuan, the chief disciple of the Tianyan Sect's leader and the future successor of the Tianyan Sect.
That man, as handsome as a banished immortal, yet as cold as ice.
He stood beside the sect leader, a faint, gentle smile playing on his lips. His gaze swept across the entire room, but never lingered on her for even a moment.
She mustered all her courage more than once to encounter him by chance on a path he was passing by, offering him carefully prepared spiritual tea, but he didn't even glance at it, and gracefully walked away.
All that remained was the faint, cold fragrance emanating from Mu Yuan and her overwhelming embarrassment.
She gazed intently at him from below his platform, trying to catch any possible glance in his words.
All he received was a slight frown and a fleeting, indifferent glance, as if he were looking at a pebble on the roadside.
The last time, she heard that he had returned from his training mission with some minor injuries, so she rushed into his palace with medicine for healing.
Before she could finish speaking, or even get within ten steps of him, he casually waved his sleeve.
An immense force that was completely irresistible came.
She didn't even see how he made his move before she was sent flying like a kite with a broken string, crashing heavily into a jade pillar outside the hall. A sweet taste rose in her throat, and the blood she spat out stained her clothes.
The excruciating pain tore at his internal organs, but what hurt even more than his body was Mu Yuan's emotionless voice: "Get out."
There was no disgust, no anger, not even a trace of impatience.
There was only indifference, as if casually brushing away a speck of dust clinging to the corner of one's clothes, not worth paying any attention to.
Why?
On what grounds?!
They entered the sect together, but because of the wrong choice, Liu Zixi could have gotten everything?
Is Lin Wanwan destined to live only in Zi Xi's shadow, enduring the cold treatment from her sect and the criticism of her wicked intentions?
Even humble admiration only earned him a merciless beating and humiliation?
Intense hatred raged through her heart.
Lin Wanwan's Dao heart completely collapsed, her spiritual energy surged backward, and her inner demons backfired.
Darkness engulfed her, and the last thing she saw was Zi Xi's aloof and cold figure on the distant high platform, and Mu Yuan's unreachable profile.
She hated it so much!
If she could do it all over again, she would never repeat the same mistake!
Lin Wanwan suddenly opened her eyes and gasped for breath.
She found herself lying on a simple bed, surrounded by the familiar damp air.
