Looking at Qin Manman's serious and determined eyes, Yu Xiangwan didn't say anything to discourage her.

Qin Manman had suffered so much. He just found out after testing her spiritual roots that she was already nine years old. The nine-year-old girl looked only five or six years old.

At first glance, he looks like a malnourished, battered little bitter gourd.

The road to self-reflection is not easy.

The disciples sent Qin Manman to the path of self-examination. Yu Xiangwan still stayed with Qin Manman and did not leave.

He also wanted to see if Qin Manman could stay. If she failed the assessment, he could find another way out for her.

Her aptitude as a person with dual spiritual roots is not bad. If she still wants to cultivate immortality, other sects are also acceptable.

Seeing that Yu Xiangwan was a good person to the end, Ye Zhen'an stood beside Yu Xiangwan and looked at the thin figure at the bottom of the ladder.

This little girl seems to be overly dependent on Yu Xiangwan.

Qin Manman knew that the road to self-reflection was not easy, so she had prepared herself early in the morning, but she didn't expect her body to be so fragile.

I had only climbed thirteen steps when I was drenched in sweat.

As if it had just been fished out of the water.

It felt as if a heavy burden weighed on her body, grinding against every inch of her bones.

Qin Manman's eyes were filled with a layer of mist uncontrollably.

No, she couldn't fall down, because if she did she wouldn't be able to get up.

Since there is a chance, my parents and brother cannot die in vain.

Those who were just watching coldly shouldn't even think of staying out of this! She had to seek justice for her father, mother, and brother!

Qin Manman's hands and legs trembled uncontrollably as she supported herself on the stone steps, climbing up slowly and with great effort.

Yu Xiangwan looked at Qin Manman's thin body on the stone steps, and climbed up one step... two steps... three steps... one hundred steps without giving up.

She stopped at the 100th step, her eyes empty and confused.

Yu Xiangwan knew that she had entered a state of self-examination.

Anyone who has ever entered the realm of self-examination has only been able to climb thirty-six steps at most.

Qin Manman clearly remembered that she was still on the Path of Self-Searching, but suddenly she appeared in Yunluo Village.

Her parents looked at her lovingly and asked her to come over for dinner. The table was filled with delicious food made by her mother.

My two or three-year-old brother playfully pestered his father to hold him, and the afterglow of dusk poured into the wooden house from the window.

There is beauty outside and inside as well.

so good.

Father, mother...brother...and her, they are all alive and well.

I haven't seen my parents for a long time.

A smile gradually spread across Qin Manman's fair little face.

When was the last time you saw your parents?

Can not remember.

It seems like it was in the previous life, but also like it was yesterday.

This scene is so beautiful, it would be great if we could stay in this moment forever.

"Sister, let's go down the mountain to play with Brother Sheng."

Her brother's pink little face had a pair of sparkling, watery eyes that looked at her.

"Okay."

Before she and her brother went out, her mother touched her hair lovingly, and her father stood by and watched her and her brother.

"Our Ah Yue needs to go home early."

Qin Manman looked at her parents deeply, then hurriedly took her brother's hand, turned around and walked down the mountain without answering.

On the way down the mountain, heavy snow suddenly began to fall, and she and her brother's clothes became tattered without them noticing.

This was a year after her mother was forced to death by the villagers and she and her brother were driven out of the house.

Her four-year-old brother looked at her cautiously while crying. The tender flesh on his face had long since turned into prickly bones due to the endless torture, and his eyes were no longer as innocent and bright as when he was a child.

"Sister, am I going to die?"

Qin Manman's eyes were filled with endless sadness. She hugged her younger brother tightly and curled up in a small cave at the foot of the mountain. Her voice was hoarse.

"……Will not."

Although she had tried her best to protect her brother when he was beaten, there were too many people beating them, all around her, so densely packed that she could only protect one side but not the other...

This was the first time she faced the malice of her peers, and this malice was fatal enough, even though they had been good friends when her parents were still alive.

The brother, whose body was covered in bruises, stopped talking and slowly closed his eyelids, which felt as heavy as a thousand pounds.

Qin Manman just looked at the endless snow in front of her. She knew that her brother was gone, just like her parents.

She just hugged her brother tightly in a daze, looking at the white snow falling outside.

It's so dirty.

she thinks.

She secretly buried her brother on a small hill. His body was covered with bruises, and she didn't know if it was from being beaten or frozen.

She took a last look at the small wooden house hidden on the hillside. The light inside would never be lit again.

Thinking about what her mother said to her when she left home, she could still hear it in her ears.

"Our Ah Yue needs to go home early."

"...Mother, Ah Yue can't go back."

Ah Yue has no home anymore. Ah Yue failed to protect her brother. I'm sorry...

Yu Xiangwan watched Qin Manman wake up from the illusion, there was no light in her eyes.

She continued to crawl forward slowly and steadily like a snail.

One hundred and first stairs...

One hundred and two stairs...

……

One hundred and ninety-eight stairs...

One hundred and ninety-nine stairs...

Two hundred and one stairs...

Yu Xiangwan and the disciples guarding the path to enlightenment were all shocked.

I really don't see how this tiny body could withstand the pressure that was getting heavier and heavier.

Ye Zhen'an was also a little surprised.

When Qin Manman climbed to the 207th step, she seemed to be unable to bear it anymore and closed her eyes, falling from the Road of Inquiry like a light rag.

Yu Xiangwan was about to fly over to pick her up.

Unexpectedly, a red figure was faster than him and steadily caught Qin Manman who was falling at a rapid speed.

I didn't expect that this person has such a warm heart.

Yu Xiangwan and the other person sent Qin Manman to Yaofeng. On the way, Yu Xiangwan used his spiritual power to check Qin Manman's body.

The heart meridians are damaged, and the disease is chronic.

Yu Xiangwan frowned. He was careless. He thought Qin Manman was fine.

I didn't expect that my body has been damaged to this extent.

Yu Xiangwan didn't avoid Ye Zhen'an either, and sent spiritual energy to Qin Manman to heal her injuries, repairing her meridians bit by bit...

Yu Xiangwan stopped only when Qin Manman gradually got better and her face showed some color.

Feed yourself a soul-restoring pill.

Yaofeng is a sub-peak under Danfeng, and all the medical practitioners in the sect are here.

After a while, Qin Manman woke up and saw Yu Xiangwan sitting in front of the couch. Her eyes were full of fragility.

"Brother, am I really useless..."

"Manman is already very powerful, more powerful than many people."

Yu Xiangwan had a gentle smile on his face, like the warm sunshine of the first day.

Qin Manman fainted again just after she finished speaking.

He might know why Qin Manman insisted on searching her conscience.

Yu Xiangwan couldn't possibly look after her all the time, and relying on backdoors was not appropriate.

Even though she had taken the path of self-examination, she was still only a menial disciple, but this status of a menial disciple was also something she had fought for herself.

At least she won't be criticized, and she... is really amazing.

She is the first disciple of Fuyao Sect who can persist in climbing 107 stairs after passing the self-examination.

After seeing that Qin Manman was not seriously injured, Yu Xiangwan returned to Yujian Peak with Ye Zhenan.

It's time to deal with the matter of the Time and Space Stone, such a hot treasure.

Yu Xiangwan replaced his identity jade token and was deducted another ten points.

But he didn't care. Just deduct the money. He owed so much and didn't care about such a small amount.

After sending a message to Yu Jiaoyue to report that he was safe, he began to think about what to do with the Time and Space Stone.
