Three days after returning to the sect, the three people who got together still couldn't escape the fate of being punished.

The main culprit Fan Ning, the accomplice Ling You, and the accomplice Jiang Biehe who was a minor but vicious accomplice - all were packed up and thrown under the Cliff of Repentance.

Leaping from the top to the bottom of the cliff, there is no sunlight and no crispy and tender chicken roasted in the back mountain - only endless ice and snow.

"I heard that this was once the place where the sect leader went into seclusion," Jiang Biehe, who knew some of the inside story, explained, "But the sect leader had an accident, and everything after that became taboo."

"Even this generation's leader still uses the title of Sect Master."

"Taboo? Is it related to the things on the sixth floor of the library?" Fan Ning, who was suddenly blown by the cold wind, hid behind Ling You and asked Jiang Biehe while urging Ling You to tidy up the cave entrance.

Ling You bent over and scraped off a layer of icicles, veins popping out on his forehead. "Don't rush me, I'm the only one working—and why can't we stay in the cave now? We have to shelter from the wind..."

"How rude, Ling You! What are you saying to a weak woman wearing a fox fur coat and yawning?" Fan Ning interrupted her, and Ying Jing pulled Jiang Biehe over to block the wind from the other side. "My spiritual vein is blocked!"

The system looked at the host's face, which was covered by warm white fur, and said "oh" in a not very convinced manner.

Ling You turned his head and rolled his eyes at her. "Is it really okay to keep talking about something like this? ...You don't really believe she's powerless, do you?"

He looked at the bright flame in Jiang Biehe's hand, his pupils trembling, "Why did you use up your own spiritual fire...?"

The chicken roasted by Fan Ning would really cry!

Jiang Biehe, who had regained his composure, remained calm, "Junior sister is weak, and she deserves to be taken care of."

Fan Ning exhaled lazily and narrowed his eyes comfortably.

Jiang Biehe smiled obscurely and brought up the previous topic again, "However, I haven't paid attention to the sixth floor of the library. If you want to -"

"No, she doesn't want to," Ling You shaved off the last bit of annoying coldness, glanced calmly at the guards who had been watching this side, and decisively stopped the topic.

Fan Ning shrugged his shoulders, walked into the beautifully carved ice cave, took out three stacks of bedding from his Qiankun bag and sat down.

Jiang Biehe followed closely behind and ignited his natal spiritual fire in the center.

The ice layer at the bottom of the Siguo Cliff is crystal clear. After witnessing the previous sect master's multiple tribulations, it has become extremely tenacious. It cannot be melted by fire and cannot be broken without a sharp weapon or spiritual power.

Ling You was watching from outside and actually felt a little peaceful.

"This is the Cliff of Repentance. How can you even look like you're reflecting on yourself?"

"I haven't done anything wrong. Can't I live comfortably on the Cliff of Repentance?" Fan Ning leaned against the spiritual fire with a smile. The burning halo made her profile look a little softer.

[Heartbeat value plus fifty]

Ling You's heart softened, and he sat down on the other side with a helpless look on his face, but his brows were unusually relaxed.

But the peaceful state only lasted for a quarter of an hour.

Because Fan Ning had warmed up, he began to make requests with confidence again.

"Oh, I want to eat grilled fish."

Ling You: "This is the Cliff of Repentance."

Fan Ning: "Can't we eat grilled fish at the Cliff of Repentance? I've observed it, and there might be some under the ice."

Ling You: "...How can you leave the Cliff of Repentance with this attitude?"

Fan Ning knocked his left hand against his right palm, his eyes shining, "The guards here are not very good, show your dignity as an assassin——"

Ling You's face was filled with black lines: "Change the request, how about this... What was your first sentence?"

Fan Ning smiled and rubbed half of his face into the fur again, "I want to eat fish."

Ling You nodded, stood up and walked out: "Wait."

System: [You've also been playing around with the Cliff of Repentance...]

"Well, don't we need to go out?" Jiang Biehe was a beat slow as he took out a packet of medicine powder from his arms.

Ling You, who had just taken two steps, asked: "...What is that?"

Jiang Biehe immediately replied, "A powder that can knock everyone unconscious?"

Ling You: "...What are you going to do?"

Jiang Biehe: "Knock everyone out."

Ling You: “…”

Ling You turned around and took the powder away.

There was an eerie silence in the air for a few seconds.

He looked up at the two faces that were looking at him at the same time, opened his mouth, and said, "This thing is useless now, and it's too obvious to knock everyone out."

"This is a colorless and odorless drug that dissolves in water," Jiang Biehe said, testifying for his drug. "If someone takes it—"

Ling You: "Hmm?"

"Then it was eaten."

After hearing this, Fan Ning's eyebrows curved, "Destroy the body and eliminate all traces, leaving nothing behind."

Ling You: “…”

"I'm going to catch some fish."

Fan Ning looked at his departing figure and stretched out her tone: "But this is the Cliff of Repentance..."

Ling You didn't even turn his head back and stumbled a little.

The system sighed faintly: [I guess he must be regretting not agreeing to your request right away.]

Fan Ning: [No, I think he should regret getting on the same pirate ship with me.]

System: [...You are quite self-aware.]

Fan Ning spread his hands: [There's nothing we can do. We villains also need to keep up with the times, otherwise we'll be treated like cannon fodder.]

The system flipped through its binding instructions and once again capitalized the word "Mary Sue" at the top.

But it was obviously no match for the host's thick thighs.

Although she was a criminal, Fan Ning still had one hand warm and the other soft, and was surrounded by people so that not even the wind could blow against her.

Is this still the Cliff of Repentance?! It's like I've just changed my vacation location!

"Sleepy?"

Ling You, who had just been refreshed by the wind, said: "You're sleeping right after eating. Are you some kind of animal that needs to hibernate?"

Two seconds later, he looked at Fan Ning who really closed her eyes to rest, and was very shocked. He lowered his voice and asked Jiang Biehe beside him.

"She's finally sick?"

Jiang Biehe carefully covered the man with a blanket and said seriously, "No."

Fan Ning, whose breathing gradually calmed down, raised a hand lazily: "I just made a mistake that everyone makes."

"..."

In silence, Ling You looked at the rosy face and finally realized that this journey of reflection was doomed to fail to develop normally.

This premonition reached its peak when the guard mysteriously delivered a large package.

It was already late at night, and Ling You, the only one awake, was called away by the guards.

Along the way, he had anticipated several times the phrases of "the leader will hold them accountable" and "order them to correct their attitude", but the result was - the guard turned around with a stern face and handed over a well-wrapped package.

The guard explained: "The Qiankun bag cannot be given away."

Ling You rubbed his eyes: "So - this is?"

The guard dumped the contents of the package onto the ground with a bang.

Thick clothes, a few warm minerals, delicious-looking spiritual fruits... and a familiar-looking chicken that flew out from the corner.

Ling You stared at it.

At the end, I picked up two letters from the cracks.

One letter was addressed to "Fan Ning personally", so Ling You didn't open it, and the other one...

It was sent by the disciples who were refining weapons.

The first three paragraphs express their recognition of Fan Ning, the middle three paragraphs describe their exploration of the magical chickens in the back mountain... and the last sentence gets to the point.

They said they had gathered some supplies from some new friends and if you like them, there will be more next time.

The corner of Ling You's mouth twitched, but the guard looked normal, even raising a thumb despite his heavy clothes.

"We all heard about what you did. It's really amazing!"

Ling You put away the supplies, a little surprised: "I thought you all wouldn't agree?"

The guard waved his hand nonchalantly: "It's all just the rules that have ingrained in me. I've been out in the ice and snow for so long, I've seen a lot."

"To be honest, it's precisely because of this that I volunteered to stay here."

Ling You looked at him, but the guard returned to his normal state, as if the disappointment at that moment had never appeared.

"Everyone eats and drinks well. The Cliff of Repentance has its own unique flavor."

Ling You staggered again as he walked back.

...Is this still a word he knows? But——

Not bad.

He looked at the ice cave that was exceptionally bright in the night, and the last trace of worry faded from his body.
