I don’t know what secret Bai Xueruo knew, but she suddenly became eager to go home.

Youlan Shang was worried about the heroine walking away alone, so he controlled Taxueyunqi and followed closely behind.

Cha Yiyi felt a little absent-minded along the way, as if there was an invisible sword hanging above her head, which would fall down and chop her in half at any time.

What’s even worse is that she can’t seek help from Youlan Shang because of this feeling of fear and trepidation.

First of all, she didn't know what secrets Bai Xueruo knew that were detrimental to her.

Secondly, if she blindly seeks help from Youlan Shang now, hoping that the other party can protect her and help her, it will feel a bit like "here is something to cover up".

As the saying goes, "If you don't do anything wrong, you don't have to worry about ghosts knocking on your door" and "If you are upright, you don't have to worry about your shadow being crooked."

But the key is that she has done a lot of "bad things", and will continue to do "bad things" under the requirements of the system until she becomes the top villain and then retires.

It is conceivable how great the psychological pressure she is under now.

[Xiao Mi, I feel like I'm dying. This feeling of panic is too uncomfortable.]

[Host, stay calm. The most important thing about being a villain is to remain calm even under overwhelming pressure.]

[You're really talking nonsense. I'm just an ordinary rookie, and you've forced me to become a villain.]

[Host, don't be afraid. No matter what, I will always be on your side.]

【Is this true? 】

[Seriously! To some extent, you and I share a common interest. I can't just stand by and watch you get into trouble.]

Xiao Mi's words slowly calmed Cha Yiyi's restless heart.

When people are trapped in the fear of the unknown, it is a particularly fortunate thing to have someone to rely on.

Cha Yiyi was not sure whether Xiaomi could really help her as it said, but since it said so now, she chose to believe it.

Besides, she had no better choice than to believe...

Because of this unexpected episode, they arrived at the haunted house three days earlier than expected.

It was almost dusk when we arrived at the secluded house.

What Cha Yiyi didn't expect was that at the door of the You family mansion, in addition to the servants and maids standing in two rows to welcome them, even You Liangchuan came to the door in person to wait.

Youlan Shang reached out and picked up Cha Yiyi from Taxueyunqi. His eyes inadvertently glanced at the dozens of black-clothed cultivators behind Youliangchuan, and fine lines appeared on his brows.

With a light movement, Bai Xueruo flipped off the back of Taxueyunqi and took two steps at a time to throw herself into the arms of Youliangchuan who had been waiting for a long time.

Before she opened her mouth to speak, tears were already streaming down her face. If you didn't know better, you would think she had suffered a great injustice.

Cha Yiyi looked at Bai Xueruo's shoulders twitching because of crying, and couldn't help but have dark guesses in her heart.

She cried so sadly, was it because of the grievances she suffered along the way, or was it simply because she was afraid that Youliangchuan would vent his anger on her.

After all, she and Youliangchuan had already set off to return home, but she suddenly appeared in Bitan Longquan in the end. This is really suspicious...

It is mentioned more than once in the original novel that Youliangchuan extremely dislikes and avoids Youlanshang.

Apart from the fact that he did not like Youlan Shang's mother, a big part of the reason was because of the well-known love between Bai Xuerou and Youlan Shang.

You Liangchuan really didn't like Bai Xuerou and You Lanshang having any contact, let alone when he was not around.

Therefore, when Bai Xueruo appeared in Bitan Longquan, she must have sneaked here without telling Youliangchuan.

Cha Yiyi glanced at the two people not far away inconspicuously. Even though Bai Xueruo was crying so sadly, You Liangchuan did not raise his hand to hug her back and comfort her.

This would have been impossible in the past!

It seems that this time, he was really angry!

Youliangchuan looked at Youlanshang calmly, and their two pairs of phoenix eyes, equally sharp as ink, could almost be used as models.

The only difference is that Youlan Shang's pupils are more pure and thorough in black.

Youlan Shang did not avoid Youliangchuan's gaze, her eyes were frank and fearless.

After a long while, You Liangchuan withdrew his gaze and raised his hand to gently pat Bai Xueruo's slender shoulders.

"Rou'er, don't cry. You are the mistress of the You family. So many people are looking at you."

Only after the man finished speaking did Bai Xueruo reluctantly leave his arms.

You Liangchuan took a white handkerchief and wiped the tears from Bai Xueruo's face.

His movements were as delicate and gentle as ever, as if he was treating his beloved one.

Only when You Liangchuan put the wet handkerchief into his sleeve did You Lanshang take a step towards his biological father.

"Shang'er, thank you for your hard work this time."

"It's not hard. This is what a member of the You family should do."

After a polite and fake conversation, the You family father and son were the first to walk into the house, followed by dozens of well-trained black-clothed cultivators.

Servants and maids came to serve Cha Yiyi and Bai Xueruo, but were all sent away by Bai Xueruo.

There was a faint smile on Cha Yiyi's lips, and it seemed that the heroine had something to say to her alone.

"Yiyi, I really didn't realize you were hiding it so deeply."

There was a strange smile on Bai Xueruo's gentle and beautiful face, and what she said was even more inexplicable and confusing.

Cha Yiyi also knew that the other party was probably testing her tone, so she asked in confusion, "Sister, I don't understand what you are saying. Can you speak more directly?"

"It doesn't matter if you don't understand. You'll know the answer soon anyway."

The malice on Bai Xueruo's face was obvious. There was no one else here, so she didn't need to disguise her true emotions.

Cha Yiyi lowered her eyes, her heart beating violently.

She tried her best to remain calm, not wanting to reveal her true identity before something unknown happened.

"Yiyi, don't you want to go to the Golden House to see the Netherworld Immortal Crystal returned to its place? As the young lady of the You family, it's better for you to be present at a time like this."

Cha Yiyi didn't say anything, and followed Bai Xueruo to the Golden House.

Xiao Mi jumped into Cha Yiyi's arms, and a slightly worried voice sounded in her mind.

[Host, I have a very bold guess...]

Upon hearing this, Cha Yiyi closed her eyes with a look of despair.

[What a coincidence! A terrifying guess also popped up in my mind...]

[Host, I suspect they may have discovered that the evil energy of the Netherworld Immortal Crystal came from your hand.]

Cha Yiyi's face turned pale and her lips were bloodless.

【What a coincidence, your guess is exactly the same as mine. 】

Xiao Mi: ...

For the first time in her life, Cha Yiyi felt like she was about to be tortured crazy. If her guess was true, she could almost foresee what kind of punishment she would suffer.

The most cruel punishment for ordinary people without spiritual power in Tianlan Continent is human pig!
