After her senior sister was reborn, she actually became a powerful and arrogant protagonist?!

The mountains and forests of southern Xinjiang are lush and verdant, with miasma spreading everywhere, poisonous insects roaming the land, and various monsters ruling the mountains.

Even cultivators from the southern border region have to carefully consider their own capabilities before entering the mountains and forests.

Of all these, Chu Luobai was most worried about the miasma, which is why she had taken the initiative to buy pills to prevent it.

However, Xun Nan, who came from the southern border, said that the thing was useless, so Chu Luobai didn't bother to participate in the bidding anymore.

After all, Xun Nan had no reason to deceive himself in this matter.

Now that Xun Nan has taken the initiative to return and ask for help, it is indeed the best development in Chu Luobai's expected plan.

If Xun Nan were to leave today, Chu Luobai would have a way to make him obediently come back and beg for her help.

"You mean you can isolate the miasma of southern Xinjiang?"

Chu Luobai looked Xun Nan up and down with a puzzled expression, his face clearly showing his doubts.

Do not believe.

“I was born in southern Xinjiang, and you are going to southern Xinjiang. There is no one more suitable to be your guide than me.”

Xun Nan said with considerable confidence, even raising his head slightly.

"How did you know I was going to southern Xinjiang? I just said that we weren't going the same way."

Chu Luobai looked at Xun Nan with some curiosity, wondering why the other party was so sure that he was going to the Southern Frontier.

Could it be that I have revealed some flaw?

"The pouch at your waist, from the fabric and the embroidered patterns to the fragrance it emits, is unique to southern Xinjiang."

"This kind of purse is a token of love in the southern borderlands. You... a person from the Central Plains carrying this thing, there are two possibilities."

Hearing Xun Nan's explanation, Chu Luobai was speechless.

I never imagined that the thing I picked up so casually would turn out to be a love token unique to southern Xinjiang...

I clearly have little connection with the word 'love' in both my past and present lives.

"Two possibilities? What two possibilities?"

Xun Nan waited for Chu Luobai's question.

"The first possibility is that you have a lover in the southern border region, and you are carrying this item to go find him."

"However... I think that's unlikely. After all, with your cultivation level, you can't enter the Southern Frontier without a special method."

"Even if you enter the Southern Frontier, your cultivation will be suppressed due to the division of the Heavenly Dao, which will be detrimental to your future cultivation. Someone like you would not slow down your cultivation progress for a little love or affection."

Chu Luo raised an eyebrow, signaling Xun Nan to continue.

In this world of cultivation, cultivation is above all else; this should be an ironclad rule that everyone agrees on.

Unfortunately, there are always exceptions.

"Therefore, another possibility is more likely for you: you went there to seek revenge."

A sly glint flashed in Xun Nan's emerald green eyes.

"This purse isn't yours; it belongs to someone close to you. She was tricked into going to the Southern Frontier. After all..."

Chu Luobai's eyes darkened slightly as he looked up at Xun Nan opposite him, waiting for his next words.

"After all, the people of the Southern Frontier are skilled in witchcraft..."

Xun Nan's lips curled up slightly; this was the first time he had smiled in front of Chu Luobai.

"They are even more adept at bewitching people's hearts."

Suddenly, Xun Nan's face came to life, his emerald eyes like the finest green gemstones, flashing with a hint of allure.

Indeed, as he said, the people of the Southern Frontier are skilled at bewitching and manipulating people's hearts, Chu Luobai secretly agreed in his heart.

"If you think I'm seeking revenge, why are you helping me? Aren't you afraid I'll seek revenge on one of your close relatives?"

Xun Nan shook his head, a hint of doubt flashing across his face, but he quickly said firmly.

"People of my clan do not intermarry with people of other clans, let alone people from Qingzhou."

"Although I can't remember many things, this is the one thing I remember very clearly."

Families that do not intermarry with other ethnic groups...

A strange guess formed in Chu Luobai's mind, but then she thought again that it was impossible for the mysterious Xun Nan clan to have ended up in Qingzhou.

It must be because there are many families in southern Xinjiang, and most of them do not intermarry with outsiders.

"You guessed right, I did go there for revenge."

Chu Luobai pondered for a moment, then casually made up a reason, saying it half-truthfully.

“I have a deep grudge against the Tie family on the edge of the Southern Frontier. If you can help me destroy the Tie family, I will take you to the Southern Frontier.”

"...Destroying the Tie family, should I say you overestimated them or something?"

Xun Nan looked somewhat speechless.

"But I seem to have some impression of this Tie family."

"Didn't you say you had amnesia? How do you still remember so many things?"

Chu Luobai looked at Xun Nan with some curiosity, and her expression became wary.

"The memories I lost are only about myself. Apart from my own name, I don't remember where I came from, what family I belong to, or even my past experiences."

Xun Nan said, shrugging helplessly.

"On the contrary, I remember very clearly things as trivial as the Tie family's affairs."

Chu Luobai looked at Xun Nan with some puzzlement, her thoughts churning.

Based on one's own experience, this can lead to memory loss, especially the loss of memories specifically about oneself...

It is highly likely that it is a curse originating from one's bloodline.

When a person performs certain actions or leaves a certain area, their personal memories are stripped away.

Or rather, it's more accurate to say it was sealed.

In the previous life, many high-ranking demonic cultivators used this method to hide their headquarters.

When everyone leaves the Demon Cultivator Headquarters, their memories of this part of the story will disappear.

However, the things one needs to do, or other memories, will not be affected.

Xun Nan's current situation is similar to that of those demonic cultivators.

"Since you know about the Tie family, you should also know that I will not go deep into the southern border region. The miasma in the mountains and forests of the southern border region has little effect on me."

"The conditions you proposed are not very appealing to me."

Now that Xun Nan is asking for his help, Chu Luobai will definitely try every means to extract as much value as possible from him.

Xun Nan pursed her lips, her emerald green eyes dimmed slightly, and the silver ornaments on her body made a soft, crisp sound before quickly returning to calm.

He seemed surprised that Chu Luobai wouldn't take the bait.

After a long while, he finally spoke slowly, as if he had made up his mind.

"I know a path that leads directly to the back mountain of the Tie family. Families in the Southern Frontier usually store their resources in the back mountain. If you go in, you could ruin half of the Tie family."

what?

Chu Luobai was somewhat stunned.

She did want to get some information out of Xun Nan, but she didn't expect to get such explosive news.

The Tie family has had marriage alliances with the Qiu Kingdom and the Wu Clan. If the women from those marriage alliances were imprisoned, they would most likely be in the back mountains.

"You're telling me such important information? Aren't you afraid the Tie family will find out and hunt you down?"
