My junior sister sees everyone as a heretical cultivator.

Chapter 94 Where is my Heart-Connecting Fruit? (Seeking monthly votes! Seeking subscriptions! Seeking book recommendations!)
[Su Ling'er: I'll first use the Heart-Connecting Fruit to send some information back to Qingxu Temple, and then hand it over to the sect leader for a decision.]

Upon hearing this, Wang Xiedi's spirits lifted, feeling that he could finally be of use, and he immediately responded emphatically:

"Yes! Senior Sister!"

……

At midnight, all was quiet.

Senior Brother Lin Qingfeng had already finished his bath and returned to his cave to log off and do other things.

After confirming that no one was around, Wang Xie tiptoed away from his thatched hut and came to the ancient tree in the middle of the wilderness where they had agreed to meet.

Before long, a red figure quietly appeared and landed in front of him; it was Su Ling'er.

"Where's the stuff?"

Su Ling'er got straight to the point, her voice revealing an barely suppressed urgency.

This is her only key to escape this living hell, and also her only chance to warn the world of the existence of demonic sects and evil cults.

Wang Xiedi nodded hurriedly, reached into his robes, and prepared to take out the jade box containing the "Heart-Connecting Fruit".

However, after searching for a long time, he found that his pockets were empty except for the shiny breastplate.

???

"what?"

what happened?

His expression froze instantly.

Seeing his appearance, Su Ling'er felt an ominous premonition that instantly swelled to its maximum.

"what happened?"

"Please don't tell me you lost it!!!"

"No...it's nothing, senior sister, I probably put it in the wrong place."

Wang Xiedi chuckled dryly, cold sweat beading on his forehead. He began frantically searching his body, from his cuffs to his belt, and even took off his boots and turned them upside down.

still none.

The jade box... the jade box is gone!

There's no fruit left!

This...how is this possible? !
He always kept the jade box close to his body, how could it have vanished into thin air?!
Seeing his flustered state and the cold sweat pouring down his face, Su Ling'er felt as if her heart had fallen into an ice cave.

"Wang Xiedi, no, don't tell me you really lost something this important!!!"

"Senior sister, I...I really don't know! I always carry it with me, how could it be gone?"

It’s over.

The last hope... has been extinguished.

She felt all her strength drain away, her vision blurred, and she almost couldn't stand up.

She grabbed the tree trunk beside her.

I can't get out...

I'm about to be forged into a celestial sword...

I'm going to be trapped in this hellhole for the rest of my life...

Anger and despair mingled within her. She turned around abruptly, her bloodshot eyes, swollen from lack of sleep and stress, fixed on Wang Xiedi.

She wanted to scold him, to question him, to pry open his head and see if it was filled with straw!
Why would the sect leader send such a... precious thing...?

But when she saw Wang Xiedi's tearful face, her anger subsided somewhat, transforming into a deeper sense of powerlessness.

What's the point of scolding him?

We...we are all pitiful creatures thrown into this hell.

"Don't panic..."

Su Ling'er took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down.
"Think carefully, what has happened since you entered the sect? Has anything... been strange?"

Wang Xiedi was stunned by his senior sister's sudden calmness and tried hard to recall.

Suddenly, he slapped his thigh:
"Senior sister! I remember now!"
At the Spirit Beast Garden!

That disciple named Yan Bulu was tossing a red fruit in his hand, and it looked familiar to me! Yan Bulu!
I also recalled the conversation between my senior brother and Yan Bulu, such as "I got a pretty good spiritual fruit" and "I have a clever plan".

Furthermore, considering that Yan Bulu dared to attack Elder Qian and successfully stole the elder's socks...

And when he picked up his junior brother, he happened to see that figure at the mountain gate.

No way!

It's very likely!

All these clues, when pieced together, reveal a terrifying truth!

That spiritual fruit is most likely the "Heart-Connecting Fruit"!
The stolen "Heart-Connecting Fruit" has most likely been sold by Yan Bulu to Wang Xian of the Beast Taming Hall!
But why would he think of stealing his junior brother's spiritual fruit?
Is it just that your hands are itchy?
wrong!

This is the Guixi Sect! It's a den of demons!

Here, behind any seemingly reasonable explanation, there must be a deeper, more demonic logic hidden!

"It wasn't stealing..."

"This might not be a simple theft..."

"I understand!"

“It’s a hunt! From the very beginning, we were his prey!”

"Hunting...hunting?" Wang Xiedi was completely confused.

"That's right!"

“I saw this person when I first started training! Right in front of me, he stole a pair of… socks from the elder who was passing on his skills!”

Wang Xiedi was even more confused: "Socks?"

"Yes! Socks!"

"At the time, I just thought he was an eccentric weirdo, but now I understand!"

"That wasn't about stealing! It was a demonstration! It was a declaration!"

She grabbed Wang Xiedi's shoulder, lowered her voice, and analyzed rapidly:
"He was telling me, and perhaps all the 'newcomers' like us! 'Look closely, I can take even the elders' personal belongings without hesitation; your pitiful possessions are nothing more than a free lunch in my eyes!'"

Wang Xiedi was completely stunned by his senior sister's shocking analysis.

"He...he must have recently started practicing some kind of evil magic!"

Su Ling'er's eyes were filled with apprehension.
"A kind of evil magic that can detect precious light!"

He was near the mountain gate when we entered!
He must have used his evil magic to sweep over each and every one of us at that time!

That [Heart-Connecting Fruit] is your most precious treasure. The radiant light it emitted marked you as its prey the moment you stepped into the sect!

Wang Xiedi shuddered in fright and subconsciously touched his breastplate.

"So... he didn't just happen to run into us, but... he came specifically to take my Heart-Connecting Fruit?"

"exactly!"

"They thought we were at our wits' end, which is exactly our opportunity!"

"Yan Buliu said that the fruit needs to be 'cultivated a second time,' which means that he hasn't used it himself yet, but is going to sell it to Wang Xian of the Beast Taming Hall!"

Her gaze turned toward the direction of the Spirit Beast Garden.

Spirit Beast Garden, Beast Taming Hall!
Although Su Ling'er had visited the Spirit Beast Garden before, she had not ventured deep into the core area of ​​the Beast Taming Hall, and had no idea what kind of dangerous and dangerous places it was.

But now it seems I have no choice but to buy it.

Su Ling'er's expression became extremely serious.
"It is now late, and although the sect appears quiet, dangers lurk beneath the surface."

"We must conserve our energy and make plans again tomorrow."

……

That night, Wang Xiedi tossed and turned in his thatched hut, feeling nervous and... a secret excitement about the heavy responsibility he was about to shoulder.

Meanwhile, Su Ling'er spent the entire night awake in her small bamboo house.

She looked out the window at the lonely moon, her heart filled with worry and determination about the future.

To escape this place, to uncover the truth, for the sake of all living beings... and also for her own unwillingness to perish... the path to immortality.

This time, we must succeed no matter what!
