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

Ling You even felt that it was more than that.

Judging from the "unpleasant parting" he witnessed last time, the Third Elder would probably want to hang up a banner that read "Fan Ning is not allowed to enter".

But he couldn't say that.

Seeing that the person in front of him was still interested in putting the lotus flowers on the plate, the words in his mind changed again and again.

"Fan Ning..."

"Junior Sister Fanning!"

Ling You was about to speak when all his thoughts were interrupted by a loud call.

He looked in the direction of the sound, and soon, people began to emerge from the quiet opening one after another.

"Junior Sister Fanning! You said you found help for us..."

"Gu Yuanzhou?! How come he's here?"

The Yueli Sect disciple who recognized the person from his back was shocked. After thinking about it, he realized something and his expression became a little uncontrollable.

He cautiously looked at Fan Ning, who didn't think anything was wrong at all, choked up a little, and asked, "That helper you were talking about...could he be him?"

"Yeah, that's true," Fan Ning smiled, motioning them to the vacant space and briefly explaining, "Gu Yuanzhou is coming to stay with me for a while. His guidance will be considered as rent."

"After all—you don't have any serious weapon refining guidance right now, right?"

The elder of Yueli Sect went into seclusion not long ago, saying that he wanted to impact his Dao heart... I don't know whether he succeeded or not, but the group of brats under his command were definitely affected.

The future, which was not very bright to begin with, became even darker.

"No one thinks that Gu Yuanzhou can't do the job of guidance just because he's almost the same age as you, right?" Fan Ning narrowed his eyes slightly, his gaze passing over their different expressions. Some disciples did look a little resistant, but even though Fan Ning had already opened his mouth, no one chose to stand up.

“Just helping each other, I can also benefit a lot.”

Knowing that she had agreed to his request, Gu Yuanzhou no longer felt that these people were noisy, and his brows relaxed a lot.

He even said some soft words that he would never say to his fellow disciples in Qingyun Sect.

Ling You thought of some rumors he had heard and said, "That's a bit hypocritical."

The disciples who followed also nodded silently.

Who doesn't know that refining requires talent? Some of them rely on their passion, while others simply choose refining as a second choice after other paths didn't go their way. They've heard enough advice that refining is not possible without talent.

"Then please give me your guidance," finally the eldest sister standing in the crowd took the lead and assumed the original responsibility. She smiled, her eyebrows were clear and there was no flattery at all, and she extended her hand to Gu Yuanzhou.

After a few simple greetings, he found an excuse to pull the person aside.

The sunlight was just right. Ling You listened to the subtle sounds coming from his ears, and his eyes slowly fell on Fan Ning who was sipping tea and eating snacks. For some reason, the feeling of emptiness that had lingered in his heart until now suddenly dissipated a lot.

"Are you in a good mood?" Fan Ning gave him a strange look.

Ling You was still unaware of what was happening. After sitting down next to her, he said, "...It's very comfortable here. I feel warm all over."

He wasn't used to saying things like this, and he realized later that it felt a bit awkward.

Just when I was about to add something to dilute the "unpleasant" feeling, in the blink of an eye, a face came up to me.

"Your body is warm?" Fan Ning looked even more strange, leaned over, and put his hand tightly on his forehead.

Ling You felt something was wrong, "You are..."

"What's the problem?" he asked in a roundabout way.

Fan Ning smiled, and her clear eyes suddenly became a little complicated.

After a long moment, she stepped back again and said with a sigh, "I don't have any problem. After all, breakthroughs are still a bit unfamiliar to me."

"Breakthrough...?" Ling You's eyebrows jumped, and his pupils widened as he realized something from this overly directional word.

"..."

"Why is it dark?" The senior sister who was sorting out questions to get the wool over Gu Yuanzhou's eyes was stunned for a moment. Without thinking too much, she felt that it was not the right time to get dark. She couldn't help but complain: "What's going on? Why are there thunders... Wait, why are there thunders?!"

There was a moment of silence, until someone in the crowd shouted in fear.

"This is a tribulation! Whose thunder tribulation is floating over here!"

Ling You: “…”

Ling You tried to find evidence that it wasn't him, but he found nothing.

Fan Ning said lightly: "Don't worry, I've already sent a message to your master. Go up and fight. You won't die."

Ling You: “…”

Ling You: "...No, I don't think it's a question of life or death."

Isn’t this development a bit too outrageous?

Helplessly holding his forehead, he quietly found a nearby hill and moved up.

even so.

Although he was facing a thunder tribulation, he was not nervous at all.

"This thunder tribulation..." Sword Master, who had rushed over after receiving the message, was a little hesitant. He looked at the sunlight on Mingyue Peak, which was almost completely blocked, and muttered, "This doesn't look like the thunder tribulation of the Jindan to Yuanying stage..."

"Maybe it's because his realm has been suppressed for too long," Fan Ning walked to the side of Jian Zun, his eyes clear and convincing.

"He just took one of my pills... maybe he overdosed."

Really? Jian Zun's expression of indifference broke for once.

He didn't believe the lie that was so obvious at the first glance, but he didn't want to ask further questions either. He just nodded and let it go.

"This is a double thunder tribulation," the system said, searching through the data and trying to compose its words: "He probably hasn't used his demonic energy in a long time, and he's already reached a critical point... Now I'm afraid he's unleashing all of his energy at once."

"That's a bit ominous," Fan Ning said, glancing at the Sword Master standing beside him, watching closely. "We haven't fully developed our feelings yet. If our identities are exposed like this, I'm afraid it will be difficult to resolve the situation peacefully."

System: [What should I do then?]

Fan Ning said nothing, but looked up at the densely packed thunderstorms waiting to fall from the sky.

Ling You was standing on the top of the mountain. He was a small person and had no defensive formation around him, so he was easily exposed to the eyes of everyone who was interested.

Fortunately, the thunder tribulation has not yet been fully completed.

Fan Ning thought about it, took out his dagger from his waist, and offered a drop of blood without even looking.

Sword Master stopped her from moving forward and said, "This thunder tribulation came from a strange source. I don't have the extra energy to pay attention to you."

"Don't worry," Fan Ning shook the silver light in his hand and corrected seriously: "You will only be able to see me later."

"It just so happens that I'm in a good mood right now, so I'll go up and survive the disaster as well."

Sword Master: “?”

He wondered if he had heard wrongly.

...What does it mean to go up and survive a disaster?
