Bound to Mary Sue, I am against involution in the world of immortal cultivation

"I'm going to die?" The young master was frightened by the decisive words. He grabbed Ling You behind him and held on to him like a life-saving straw. "Is it because of this?"

"Maybe not?" Fan Ning looked at him and smiled gently. "According to normal usage, you should enjoy the thrill of speeding like a whirlwind, and then crash into rocks because you can't stop."

"Well, in practice, even your brain would probably be smashed to pieces. After all, your cultivation...is not as good as the sword in your hand."

Ling You retracted his short knife, his expression indescribable: "Don't talk about others' cultivation level."

The young master leaned on his shoulder with tears in his eyes, "I'm already miserable enough, you're so kind, wuwu..."

Ling You: ...

Ling You quickly pulled the man off him, glanced at Fan Ning's expression, and shook his head decisively, "No, what I mean is that his cultivation is the only good thing he has left."

"Like your crisp movements?"

Fan Ning pressed him, picked up the broken pieces of the magic weapon and pieced them together, then turned around and got on the carriage.

Ling You followed right after him and sat down, not forgetting to ask, "Where are we going now? Do you know the way?"

Fan Ning smiled slightly, allowing the young master to climb into the carriage with tears and snot, with the corners of his mouth always gentle.

"I didn't know it before, but now I want to take you with me to faraway places."

"Tasteless stuff."

The young master who was caught in the eye: "..."

The young master changed his previous attitude and nodded and said: "Big sister, you are right, everything you said is right..."

Ling You: "...There's no need to be so pious."

-

Fan Ning arrived at the scene at lightning speed, and even with the help of magic weapons, he was one step faster than the disciples who had rushed over.

System navigation hides its merits and fame.

"Ugh, ugh—"

The young master, who had never experienced such a stimulating experience, vomited as soon as he came down. While vomiting, he looked at the graceful Fan Ning with tears in his eyes, his eyes full of accusations.

Ling You's face turned pale as well. He pretended to be calm as he got off the carriage. However, when he looked up, he met Yu Changqing's shocked gaze.

"Crack," the carriage that had gone through a bloody journey finally broke into pieces, along with the horse in front, whose eyes were full of fear.

"What are you doing...?" Yu Changqing lowered his voice, as if hesitating about something.

Ling You: "We were so eager to complete the mission that we accidentally finished a little faster than others."

"No matter how urgent it is, this cannot happen. Isn't this Master Ji? How did it become like this?"

The senior brother behind Yu Changqing frowned, looking at the young master who was about to fall to the ground, and felt something was wrong. "Master Ji, do you know these two people from Yueli Sect?"

"I, I don't—"

Before he finished speaking, Fan Ning patted him on the back.

He touched and then left, without any other unnecessary movements, just like he walked up to brush the dust off the young master's shoulders.

The light from the sky fell through the gaps in the leaves, stretching the shadows of the two people who were touching each other very long.

Young Master: “…”

The young master was honest: "It's impossible for me not to know them. They are my saviors, my only big sister——"

Fan Ning interrupted, "That's not necessary."

To be honest, “It’s a bit disgusting.”

"She meant that the relationship hasn't reached that point yet." Seeing that everyone else's expressions were a little strange, Ling You smiled and changed the subject again, "Has everyone else not arrived yet? Otherwise, how about we go in first?"

"You..." Yu Changqing was suspicious and blocked the entrance with two steps. "I remember Master never told me."

Fan Ning shook the token.

"Perhaps there's nothing to say?"

Yu Changqing still didn't let him go: "But your cultivation level...?"

He didn't say anything else, but just vaguely blocked the inquiring gazes of those around him.

But he still looked as if he would not let go without a practical answer.

Fan Ning pulled Ling You in front of him.

"So I brought my own thugs," she said, pushing aside Yu Changqing who was slightly obstructing her view. "No one has died here yet... Well, it seems that there have been deaths."

Yu Changqing pinched his brows and said, "It's just that it's stuck inside and can't come out."

It is not appropriate to impose the death penalty directly.

"That's it..."

Fan Ning pretended to be in deep thought, and while Yu Changqing was still waiting for her reply, she pushed Ling You in from the edge of the barrier with one hand.

"Ah, it seems to be a bit smooth, I'll be more careful next time."

As soon as she finished speaking, Ling You grabbed her hand and she slipped away from the two guards like a puff of smoke.

"You, you guys..." The senior brother who helped Young Master Ji up on the other side was stunned.

"Then I will too—"

"You can't," Yu Changqing hit the young master, whose heart was flying, back with a sword sheath.

Cold and heartless, the moment he looked up, he looked like a fish that had been dredged in an ice cave for ten years. "It's too fragile."

The young master pointed at the healed barrier with a blank look in his eyes.

Trying to appeal to his emotions and reason, he said, "But they've all gone in, so it doesn't make any difference to me... Well, maybe it doesn't make any difference at all."

The senior brother standing next to him was puzzled: "Why did you come here? Didn't Sect Master Ji send anyone here?"

The young master sat down and touched his chin, smiling proudly.

"He didn't send me here either. I came here on my own! On my own!"

Yu Changqing glanced at him.

He silently guarded the opening tighter.

-

On the other side, the two people who broke into the barrier instantly sensed the change in atmosphere.

The colors in front of my eyes darkened completely, as if I had walked into a rusty shell of memories. When I lowered my head, I had to be careful not to trip over the intricate roots under my feet.

It was like the beginning of a horror movie, with the dark and damp air, the deserted mountain village - and the perspective that seemed to be within reach yet out of reach, as if looking up.

Ling You's head was full of black lines: "Is this the reason you attacked me and tripped me?"

"The situation requires it," Fan Ning suppressed his resentment with all his strength and spread his hands innocently, "It's not scary at all now."

Ling You: ...

Ling You silently stood up and dusted himself off. "I refuse. Next time, please do it yourself."

Fan Ning smiled: "Yes, in the next life for sure."

From once to a lifetime, force the topic to end.

The two continued to walk forward together, but soon they saw the edge of the fog.

Ling You: "I have a bad feeling."

Fan Ning narrowed his eyes, picked up a small stone beside him and threw it in.

There was a click, as if it hit something neither hard nor soft, and the originally thin mist silently turned red.

...even more weird.

【system? 】

The only thing left in my mind was the busy tone.

When Fan Ning opened the system page again, he saw a few large words across his eyes: [Upgrading, do not disturb.]

Fan Ning sighed with regret after losing the quick navigation.

"Is there...a person there?" Ling You suddenly spoke.

After a few seconds, the blood mist that obscured his eyes twisted and changed, and stopped at the shape of a door.

Fan Ning politely walked forward and knocked.

A little girl with her head covered slowly walked out.

The little girl tilted her head and waved awkwardly, her eyes blank. "Are you... guests too?"

Fan Ning kindly twisted her twisted fingers back together bit by bit, and said calmly, "Yes, hello."

She acted as if she didn't see anything strange at all. She picked up the little girl's eyeball that had fallen to the ground and put it back, and even exchanged names.

Although Ling You didn't understand, he just followed his instructions.

The little girl was visibly happy.

"Shen Shuzhi," she said, "We exchanged names and became friends."

"I will protect you."
