Don't mess with the little apprentice sister! She is greedy and immoral

There were several times when she felt like she should just disappear.

But, I can't bear to do it.

Until she saw that hand.

The hand with the well-defined joints and the ring on it.

She had the impression that this hand had once given her a cup of tea.

No matter how much more there was, Qin Zhen could no longer remember it.

And that sentence——

"This is not the place for you to be," Qin Zhen suddenly woke up.

This dark crevice is the place where one has to choose between life and death.

Here, people may see things that happened in the past, or they may see the future that has not happened.

No matter what you see, these things are no different from illusions.

Therefore, if you truly accept your own death here, you will never be able to return to reality.

This is the inner demon that may exist at any time on the road of cultivation.

It always appears suddenly when people are most vulnerable and least prepared.

But people often cannot realize this on their own.

Only when you have firm faith can you fully see through it all, and your state of mind will be elevated.

Qin Zhen felt that the strange fire in her abdomen seemed to be a little warmer.

Consciousness is returning bit by bit.

Something warm liquid fell on her cheek.

Qin Zhen slowly opened her eyes, and a familiar face suddenly came into her sight.

The expression on that face was so sad that even his eyelashes were wet, as if he had just cried.

It's really not suitable.

Her second senior brother should be the one with a nonchalant smile, seemingly giving up, but not being defeated by anything.

She wanted to wipe away his tears, but... it hurt too much.

Her whole body felt like it was falling apart, and she couldn't even do a small movement like raising her hand.

She could only stare at him quietly, letting him hold her in his arms and walk towards the entrance of Xuanling Realm.

His gaze fell into the distance, and a tear fell from his eyelashes.

"This time, Second Brother will take you home. Don't... mess around again."

"Ah."

Qin Zhen responded softly.

go home.

Let’s go back to Poyun Sect together, their home.

Eat together, daydream and don’t think about anything.

As long as she was in Poyun Sect and everyone was together, that was the life she wanted to return to the most.

The sun shines down from outside the mysterious spiritual realm.

Somewhat glaring.

But Qin Zhen stubbornly looked at it twice more.

It was great that the night was over and in front of her was the person she cherished.

Everything will be fine, right?

Qin Zhen wanted to say something else, but her eyelids were getting heavier and heavier.

Maybe it was because the sun was too warm, or maybe it was because everyone was around her, she finally fell asleep again peacefully.

She only vaguely heard someone make an appointment with her, and when she woke up again, she would be home.

……

On this side, after Jing Xing handed Qin Zhen over to Elder Mu, he had to clean up the last mess of the demon clan.

"Have you found Jiang Lanzhao?"

Jingxing directly called Puyang to ask.

Pu Yang's expression was a little complicated: "Found it, but..."

"but what?"

"I was a step too late. The person is gone."

"Gone?"

Upon hearing this, Jing Xing stopped in his tracks, as if he had not expected such a consequence.

"Well, after Yousu died, he committed suicide."

When Pu Yang said this, his brows furrowed even more tightly: "It was too chaotic at the time, and no one could keep an eye on him all the time."

Jing Xing's expression was a little sad: "The last Silver Snake of the demon clan ended up like this."

"Well, young master, since he is gone, the marks of the gods on those immortals should be automatically removed, right?"

Jingxing shook his head, unsure.

"Have all the accommodations for the demon tribe been arranged properly by now?"

"Well, thanks to the help of the Immortal Sect, the houses that were less damaged have been repaired by them using magic, so they can be temporarily lived in. But after that, we may have to find a new clan land."

Even if the house is habitable, the surrounding environment has become a wasteland and is not suitable for living.

"Is there Su's token, or is it not found?"

"No, I'm afraid it will take a new clan leader to reopen the blockade of the demon world."

In addition to being selected, the demon clan leader also has a special succession ceremony.

Only by passing that ceremony can one become the true patriarch of the demon race and obtain the inheritance.

And this ceremony cannot be completed in a day or two.

Even though the demon clan now secretly respects Jingxing as the leader, he does not have the authority as the clan leader to change You Su's previous orders.

"Then hurry up and elect a successor."

"The new clan leader must be you, Young Master! Why do we need an election?"

Upon hearing this, Pu Yang spoke without thinking.

But Jing Xing shook his head: "The demon tribe does not need a new tribe leader who is away from the tribe every other day."

"Young Master!" Pu Yang was anxious when he heard this, "The demon tribe needs you now! You can't abandon us."

"Now you no longer need to rely on anyone and can do everything well."

"But your father left us to you in the hope that one day you would inherit his will."

"Will."

Jingxing sighed softly. He had never seen his parents, and all he knew about them came from other people's descriptions.

A great hero who is willing to sacrifice himself for his people.

As his child, he was very proud, but he had also hoped countless times that his father was not a hero.

He hopes that he can live a good life, even if he is just an ordinary person, as long as he is safe and healthy.

What about him?

As a father, would he want to confine him to this lonely position at the top?

If his will is to protect his people.

So, if the church members protect themselves, does that count as inheriting his will?

Jingxing thought a lot at this moment.

But in the end, he just smiled with relief.

"Then I might have to make a decision that goes against my ancestors."

Pu Yang: "What?"

Jing Xing smiled: "Don't call me Young Master anymore, my name is Jing Xing."

He is not anyone's son, nor is he the next demon clan leader. He is just himself and only wants to be himself.

The responsibilities toward his parents and the demon race were like invisible shackles that had enveloped him for hundreds of years. But now, he wanted to open the cage and see the outside world.

Puyang looked at Jingxing, who was full of vigor and vitality, yet unrestrained and free.

In a trance, I seemed to see the former patriarch from many years ago again.

Maybe, Jingxing and he took different paths, but he had inherited his will long ago?

If you want to persuade him further, Pu Yang just can't say anything.

"Although I am not in the demon tribe, I am a member of the demon tribe. If the demon tribe needs help in the future, they can come to Poyun Sect to find me at any time."

Seeing that Pu Yang had figured it out, Jing Xing added another sentence.

"Young Master, no, Jingxing."

"Ok?"

"Is Poyun Sect a very good place?"
