All the members are good people, only the host is a pervert

The system quickly figured out what the "little trick" Lin Ruan was talking about was.

Suddenly, one day, Lin Ruan's hair turned white overnight, and even her eyes turned a dull, pale color. This frightened Wu Daozi, who quickly summoned a doctor from the secret door. The doctor explained that Lin Ruan had contracted the Soul-Splitting Disease, a condition caused by excessive repression. However, this disease only caused occasional changes in her personality and appearance, and did not affect her cultivation.

Hearing the doctor say that it would not affect Lin Ruan's practice, Wu Daozi felt relieved. Without asking the doctor how to treat it, he waved his hand to let the doctor leave and forced Lin Ruan to practice again.

It was impossible for Lin Ruan to really let herself get the soul-splitting disease. She just asked the system to disguise it. She also liked the way she looked with white hair and white eyes.

The system felt that Lin Ruan's aesthetic was somewhat childish, but that didn't affect it. As long as it could complete the group pet mission and plant enough anchor points in this world, it would be fine for it and her to get double the points.

In the year when the original owner's parents came to find him, Lin Ruan was already one step away from the Nascent Soul stage, but unfortunately he had not yet broken through this step.

Wudaozi hesitated for a long time, but still couldn't resist the temptation of Nascent Soul Pill Refining, so he agreed to let Lin Ruan go out to gain experience. However, before leaving, he not only poisoned Lin Ruan, but also put a Gu on him, and even accompanied him personally, for fear that Lin Ruan would never come back.

Of course Lin Ruan would come back. She was holding back and refusing to break through just to create an alibi for herself.

Half a month later, a gigantic, tentacled monster suddenly appeared from the Xingluo Sect's secret door, slaughtering all the elders and the Grand Elder there. Lin Ruan had already teleported back through the space button, and by then, Wu Daozi had been killed by Lin Ruan's combined system. She bought a Sentinel Spirit Body Experience Card from the mall, not only for revenge, but also to take advantage of the chaos to plunder the Spirit Stone Vault. As for the treasure vault, she left it untouched, fearing that if anyone recognized it as belonging to the Xingluo Sect, it would be easy to link her to the massacre.

Of course, the spirit stones from the secret door wouldn't make Lin Ruan go all out to get them. What she had her eyes on were the two spirit veins under this sect.

It is worthy of being the secret door for the great elders to retire. These two spiritual veins can be compared with the spiritual veins of the above two sects. They just use some unique concealing methods and have not been discovered by anyone until now.

Lin Ruan unceremoniously asked the system to store the two spiritual veins intact into the space. Immediately, a spiritual energy rain fell in the space. Lin Ruan felt the rich spiritual energy in the air and sighed with satisfaction.

The emptiness in her soul was constantly clamoring for hunger, and she needed to be constantly filled with countless wealth, material things, emotions, and so on, as if filling a bottomless pit.

The Gu had naturally been cured long ago, and while the poison hadn't been removed, it was merely suppressed by the system. When Lin Ruan returned, she was still in the late Jindan stage. She was only sixteen, after all. Even with top-grade spiritual roots, even with the techniques and elixirs Wu Daozi had taught her, a sixteen-year-old Yuanying stage sounded too monstrous to be described as "genius." She felt perfectly fine now. After all, she was going to be the group's favorite. Despite her tragic and repressed background, a damaged body wasn't bad either. She looked at the ruins scattered across the ground and the people, both happy and bewildered, lost in thought, her face expressionless, neither sad nor happy.

The day after she returned to the Secret Door, the original owner's parents came looking for her. The Secret Door had been reduced to rubble, and the kidnapped children hadn't left. They would occasionally wail and curse the monster, but they only took the items from the treasure house and continued to cling to the ruins. They were all poisoned by the elders of the Secret Door, a poison they had no way to cure. They only hoped that if a surviving elder came or someone else found them, they could still survive. However, they left, and they were poisoned to death within a few days.

Suddenly, Lin Ruan found a talisman flying towards her, and subconsciously used her spiritual power to turn into a whip to sweep it away.

"Nannan, is that you? My Nannan?" Lin Ruan's mother, Qingmu Zunzhe, came over and saw Lin Ruan's actions. In fact, there was no need to look at the talisman. She looked too much like her. She almost didn't hesitate and felt that it was her daughter at first glance.

But facing the enthusiasm of Venerable Qingmu and Venerable Ruoshui, Lin Ruan simply took a step back and said, "You've made a mistake. My name is Lin Ruan, not your Nannan."

Just one action, just one sentence made the eyes of the two Mahayana masters redden. Sensing Lin Ruan's distrust, Master Ruoshui took out a talisman and said gently, "This is a family-finding talisman. As long as it is stained with human blood, it can find people with blood ties within a certain range." He paused and said, "regardless of life or death."

They had thrown away countless of these talismans over the past decade or so. Their child had been stolen shortly after birth, leaving no noticeable birthmark. The person who stole the child hated them immensely, and despite all the torture, they simply insisted that the child had been killed long ago, refusing to tell them where the body had been buried. They could only resort to this clumsy method, searching area by area, determined to bring their child's remains home, even if they were no longer in this world.

Venerable Ruoshui and Venerable Qingmu each dropped a drop of blood on the talisman. The talisman paper seemed to have a spirit. After absorbing the blood, it flew towards Lin Ruan tremblingly.

Lin Ruan put the talisman paper down again, pursed her lips, and said cautiously: "Can you give me two of these talismans?"

"Okay, okay, here you go." Venerable Qingmu quickly took out a handful of talisman paper and handed it to Lin Ruan.

Lin Ruan thanked him softly, first dripped a drop of his own blood on the talisman paper, and then the talisman paper flew towards Qingmu Ruoshui and the others.

She didn't ask the survivors of the secret door to help her test the techniques on the other piece of paper for two reasons. First, Lin Ruan's appearance was too strange and difficult to understand. Sometimes, her hair was jet-black and her eyes were deep as ink, making her look just like an ordinary person. But other times, her hair was completely white and her eyes were gray, like a madman who had gone mad and was blind.

Secondly, there was Lin Ruan's special status within the Dark Gate—the Saint. They didn't know she would eventually become alchemy material, but they knew all Dark Gate resources would prioritize Lin Ruan's cultivation. She was well-fed, warmly clothed, and spared constant beatings and scolding. These factors fueled jealousy within the Dark Gate, leaving Lin Ruan isolated and helpless.

Lin Ruan took out another nest of spirit rabbits from the space ring, took out one of them, dripped its blood on the talisman paper, and watched the talisman paper fly towards the parents and children of the spirit rabbit.

Lin Ruan looked at Qing Mu Ruo Shui and the other person and asked, "How did you lose the child?"

Venerable Qingmu and Venerable Ruoshui looked at each other, their faces full of pain, and told the story of what happened that year.

It turns out that when Venerable Qingmu and Venerable Ruoshui were traveling, they happened to encounter Ruoshui giving birth. After the birth, they encountered their enemies and a fierce battle broke out. During the battle, their child was stolen by the enemy and has not been heard from since.

After listening to their narration, Lin Ruan had a general understanding of what had happened. Her grayish-white eyes looked at the two people in front of her coldly. She asked, "Now that you see what I look like, do you still want to take me back?"

"Nannan, what are you talking about! It's good enough that you are alive. How could your father and I disown you?" said Venerable Qingmu.

"Okay, then I'll go back with you." After saying that, Lin Ruan closed her eyes and fell to the ground. Her hair turned blue-black inch by inch from top to bottom, as if her vitality was gradually fading away.

Noticing this anomaly, Venerable Ruoshui and Venerable Qingmu did not dare to waste any more time. They only sent a signal flare to let the monks near the sect see it and properly arrange for the group of children standing in front of the ruins. They then took Lin Ruan and hurriedly flew to Changyun Sect on their swords.

Along the way, Venerable Ruoshui was extremely anxious and kept using his magic power to speed up his flight. Venerable Qingmu, on the other hand, held Lin Ruan tightly and used his spiritual power to protect her heart meridians, fearing that she would get into trouble.

(I forgot to mention, I'll add here that the level settings in this world of immortal cultivation are Qi training, foundation building, golden elixir, Nascent Soul, Spirit Transformation (those from foundation building to Spirit Transformation are called True Persons), Void Refining, Fusion, Mahayana, and Tribulation Crossing (those from Void Refining to Tribulation Crossing are called Venerables))
