So what if I'm useless? I'll become a saint!

In the Tianyuan Continent, in the Zheng family of Jinzhou, in a magnificent mansion, Zheng Yan and Yu Lingxi were sitting opposite each other.

Outside the window, the afterglow of the setting sun fell on the two of them, adding a touch of warmth to the quiet conversation.

Zheng Yan's eyes revealed a bit of helplessness and worry, and she asked softly.

"Lingxi, have you made up your mind? Your brother...he wants you to sneak into Lei Xiao Sect in the name of marriage, intending to disintegrate this powerful sect from within. Are you sure you don't want to listen to your brother's orders and just be the young lady of Lei Xiao Sect?"

Upon hearing this, Yu Lingxi sighed softly, with complex emotions flashing in her eyes.

She turned her head and looked out the window, as if she could travel through time and space and see the figure who grew up in Lei Xiao Sect.

"Yan Yan, you know, Lei Tingyi was born when I was eighteen. I watched him grow from a hungry baby to a handsome and accomplished man. Over the years, my heart has been filled with his shadow. I really like him and want to be his wife, not a spy with a conspiracy."

Yu Lingxi's voice was soft but firm, and every word she said revealed her deep affection and persistence for Lei Tingyi.

She knew that once she chose this path, it would mean betraying her family and bearing a heavy crime.

But she knew better that her heart could no longer give up the feelings for Lei Tingyi.

As Zheng Yan listened to Yu Lingxi's story, a hint of understanding and sympathy flashed in her eyes.

She gently held Yu Lingxi's hand and gave her her most sincere support.

"Lingxi, I understand how you feel. Love can sometimes make people blind and brave. Since you have made your choice, stick to it. No matter what the future holds, I will stand by you, support you and help you."

Yu Lingxi took a deep breath, as if he had made up his mind.

"Yan Yan, thank you. I will stick to my choice, no matter how difficult the road ahead is, I will not regret it. Because I know that my heart already belongs to Lei Tingyi."

Zheng Yan looked at Yu Lingxi, her eyes full of worry and helplessness. She sighed softly and spoke earnestly.

"But Lingxi, your Yu family has long been a demonic cultivator. Lei Xiao Sect is a righteous sect that hates evil. Once Lei Tingyi knows your current identity, how could he protect you? What's more, I heard that he already has a lover. Why are you doing this?"

When Yu Lingxi heard this, her expression changed slightly, but she quickly regained her composure.

She knew that what Zheng Yan said was true, but her feelings for Lei Tingyi made her unable to give up.

"Yan Yan, I know everything you said."

Yu Lingxi's voice was low and firm.

"However, I cannot give up my feelings for Lei Tingyi just because of my status and family. I believe that as long as we treat each other sincerely, he will understand and accept me. As for his current lover... I believe that as long as I work hard, he will see my good side and choose me."

Zheng Yan looked at Yu Lingxi's determined eyes and couldn't help but feel admiration in her heart.

She knew that Yu Lingxi was a woman who dared to love and hate, and once she made a decision, she would not change it easily.

"Okay, Lingxi."

Zheng Yan gently patted the back of Yu Lingxi's hand.

"Since you have made your choice, I support you. However, you must be careful not to put yourself in danger. After all, the line between the devil and the righteous is not so easy to cross."

Yu Lingxi looked at Zheng Yan gratefully and nodded.

"Don't worry, Yanyan. I will be careful. For Lei Tingyi and for our future, I will work hard to make myself stronger and better."

Just then, there was a knock on the door, accompanied by a hearty voice.

"Yan Yan, Ling Xi, let's go out and play. There's a lantern festival on the street today, it's going to be very lively!"

Zheng Yan and Yu Lingxi smiled at each other. They knew that it was Zheng Yan's biological brother Zheng Ze who came.

Zheng Ze has a cheerful personality, likes to be lively, and can always bring them joy.

Zheng Yan stood up and walked to the door, gently opened it, and saw Zheng Ze standing outside the door with a bright smile on his face.

He was wearing a gorgeous brocade robe, looking handsome and elegant, and holding a folding fan in his hand, gently waving it.

"Brother, why are you here?"

Zheng Yan asked with a smile, but she had already guessed his purpose.

Zheng Ze chuckled.

"I heard there's a lantern festival on the street today, and I thought you two must be bored staying indoors, so I came to find you to go out and play together!"

Yu Lingxi also stood up and walked to the door, looking at Zheng Ze with a smile.

"Brother Zheng Ze, thank you for inviting us. However, I am not feeling well today, so I may not be able to accompany you."

Zheng Ze frowned when he heard this and asked with concern.

"What's wrong? Are you feeling unwell? Do you want to ask a doctor to come and see?"

Yu Lingxi shook his head and smiled.

"No, I'm just a little tired. I'll be fine after a rest. Go and have fun, don't worry about me."

Zheng Yan looked at Yu Lingxi's slightly pale face and felt a little worried, but she knew Yu Lingxi's temperament and did not force it.

She turned and looked at Zheng Ze.

"Brother, since Lingxi is not feeling well, let's go out and play another day. Today, you accompany me to go shopping on the street and buy some things to nourish Lingxi's body."

Zheng Ze nodded in agreement.

He looked at Yu Lingxi and said.

"Lingxi, then you should have a good rest. We will bring you some delicious food."

Yu Lingxi smiled and nodded, watching Zheng Yan and Zheng Ze leave.

Zheng Ze and Zheng Yan strolled along the dimly lit streets, surrounded by bustling crowds and various stalls.

However, Zheng Ze's attention was not on these lively scenes at all. His eyes revealed a hint of melancholy, and he seemed absent-minded.

He was worried about Yu Lingxi. After all, Yu Lingxi's condition didn't look very good.

Zheng Yan couldn't help feeling helpless when she saw her brother like this.

She knew that Zheng Ze had admired Yu Lingxi for many years, and he took the initiative to invite her out today in order to spend this wonderful night with Yu Lingxi.

However, Yu Lingxi's rejection made Zheng Ze's mood fall to the bottom.

"Brother, don't be like this."

Zheng Yan consoled softly.

"Lingxi is not feeling well today, so it's understandable that she can't come play with us. When she gets better, we can ask her out to play together, okay?"

Zheng Ze heard this and managed to force a smile, but the disappointment in his eyes was hard to conceal.

"I know. I'm just a little worried about her. Will she be bored if she stays alone in the mansion? Will she need someone to take care of her?"
