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

"Chu Luobai, don't try to trick me."

Zhao Jingren looked Chu Luobai up and down, his face showing disbelief.

The Sword Immortal of Wine was so incredibly talented back then, but he disappeared without leaving behind any legacy.

Even the Flowing Shadow Sword Sect declined as a result, barely managing to remain a second-rate sect for many years.

Now, Chu Luobai claims that she obtained an opportunity left behind by the Drunken Sword Immortal. Not to mention Zhao Jingren, even the people from Mingyue Academy would not believe it.

"What good would it do you to lie to me?"

Chu Luobai raised an eyebrow, her spiritual energy circulated within her body, and a terrifying pressure instantly surged forth from her.

Zhao Jingren's face turned pale upon feeling the oppressive aura.

"The Dao Integration Realm...you..."

"You didn't expect that, did you? I inherited the spiritual power left behind by the Sword Immortal and broke through to the Dao Integration Realm directly."

Seeing Zhao Jingren's shocked expression, Chu Luobai felt extremely satisfied.

In his previous life, he never even touched the edge of the Dao Integration Realm before he died, but in this life, he's even faster than Zhao Jingren.

"If those old fogies at Mingyue Academy knew that this was the legacy of the Drunken Sword Immortal, they'd probably faint from anger."

After the initial shock, Zhao Jingren said with a hint of schadenfreude.

"However, judging from your appearance, you didn't receive the sword technique inheritance from the Drunken Sword Immortal?"

"No, there is a wisp of the remnant soul of the Drunken Sword Immortal on that blank stone tablet. When I went there, the remnant soul was already somewhat delirious."

"After I digested that spiritual energy, the remnant soul had vanished without a trace."

"What a pity. If I could have obtained the sword technique inheritance, the Qingyun Sword Sect would have had another Elder Chu."

Zhao Jingren knew in his heart that Chu Luobai was definitely hiding something, but he did not intend to ask any further questions.

Everyone has their own secrets.

The fact that Chu Luobai was willing to tell him about the Drunken Sword Immortal was already a rare sign of trust.

"By the way, is your senior brother here?"

Upon hearing the name of his senior brother, Zhao Jingren's brows furrowed instinctively.

"Where else could he be but Wenling Peak?"

"If something happens, you should take the initiative to find him."

Zhao Jingren rubbed his temples, feeling that none of them were giving him any peace of mind.

"I suspect that someone within the sect is colluding with demonic cultivators."

Chu Luobai said in a deep voice, his expression becoming extremely serious.

"A demonic cultivator? Are you sure?"

Upon hearing the words "demonic cultivator," Zhao Jingren's expression turned serious.

"It's still uncertain, but since it involves a demonic cultivator at the Mahayana stage, I must be cautious."

In his previous life, Chu Luobai could never understand why an elder of the Qingyun Sword Sect would collude with a demonic cultivator.

How did the elder manage to avoid the sect leader's spies?

Looking back now, the first person to collude with the demonic cultivators was probably that acting sect leader.

That's why the mountain-protecting formation, which was originally designed with the core elders as its core, could not be activated.

"A demonic cultivator at the Mahayana stage..."

Zhao Jingren narrowed his eyes slightly, and then looked at Chu Luobai as if he had just thought of something.

"The one from the Hehuan Sect?"

"Yes."

Chu Luobai nodded slightly. In this vast Qingzhou territory, there was only one Mahayana stage demonic cultivator.

That was Fu Cheng'an of the Hehuan Sect.

"How could he..."

Zhao Jingren pondered for a moment, then his expression changed drastically. He turned and strode towards Wenling Peak.

"You've finally arrived. I'll take you to see your senior brother."

Chu Luobai stared at Zhao Jingren's reaction and understood.

It seems that this matter is indeed related to Zu Yang, and Zhao Jingren also knows some of the inside story.

After all, Fu Cheng'an was from the same generation as Zu Yang and Xiao Xuancheng.

If he wanted to establish a relationship with those agents, Xiao Xuancheng was the most suitable intermediary.

Why didn't I think of the connection between Mu Yurou, Xiao Xuancheng, and Fu Chengan in my past life?

Moreover, earlier on Wenling Peak, there was a senior sister who was exceptionally talented, and even Zu Yang was no match for her.

Unfortunately, that senior sister perished in one of the previous secret realms.

After that, Zu Yang secluded himself on Wenling Peak and never came out, while Xiao Xuancheng rose through the ranks to become the most recognized disciple of the sect.

Chu Luobai was still young at the time, and she didn't know what exactly happened in that secret realm back then.

But deep down, he could sense that Zu Yang, Xiao Xuancheng, and Fu Chengan all had an inextricable connection with that senior sister.

At Wenling Peak, the sound of zither music was deafening.

"Your senior brother is quite skilled at playing the zither."

Chu Luobai chuckled, she hadn't expected this mysterious senior brother of Wenling Peak to have such a hobby.

"That guqin was left behind by my senior sister."

As Zhao Jingren spoke, he unconsciously sighed.

He shook his head slightly and pushed open the gate to Zuyang's courtyard.

"Forget it, just ask my senior brother directly."

A night breeze blew by, and the person under the peach tree was dressed in black, with snow-white hair blowing in the wind. His aura was aloof and cold, like an immortal descending to earth.

In her previous life, Chu Luobai had only met Zu Yang a few times, but every time she did, she was amazed by him.

"Chu Luobai greets Senior Brother."

Chu Luobai bowed respectfully, and Qiu Lin behind him followed suit.

"Why are the disciples of Xiaoyao Peak here at Wenling Peak?"

Zu Yang spoke softly, his voice perfectly matching his overall demeanor—cold as a mountain spring, carrying a strong sense of aloofness.

"I would like to know what happened in the secret realm back then, to be precise, the relationship between Fu Cheng'an, you, and Xiao Xuancheng."

Zhao Jingren was taken aback by Chu Luobai's direct question and immediately became nervous.

You have to understand that what happened back then was a thorn in Zu Yang's side.

He doesn't allow anyone to mention it in front of him.

Zhao Jingren was only able to know a little bit about this because he was raised by his senior sister since childhood.

"I never expected that one day a disciple of Xiaoyao Peak would ask me this. It seems that Xiao Xuancheng is about to lose his temper."

Surprisingly, Zu Yang did not fly into a rage; instead, his expression was amiable.

He put away the guqin on his lap and walked to the stone table.

"Have a cup of tea, and tell me first, what did you discover?"

Chu Luobai, who had come to gather intelligence, sat down without any hesitation.

"Senior Brother Zuyang, you must have heard of my junior sister?"

"You mean, Mu Yurou?"

Zu Yang nodded, "He is indeed a disciple who doesn't care about formalities. He even came to Wenling Peak to look for me once."

"what?"

Zhao Jingren's eyes widened again, and he looked at Zu Yang with disbelief.

"When did she arrive? How come I didn't know?"

Zhao Jingren had no liking for that woman who always pretended to be weak.

"Not long ago, when you went down the mountain to do a mission."

Zu Yang smiled faintly, "I told my disciples not to tell you."

“I know you don’t like Mu Yurou, but she looks so much like your senior sister, the disciples of Wenling Peak won’t stop her.”

Mu Yurou looks remarkably like the senior sister who perished at Wenling Peak!

Chu Luobai was startled; this was the first time she had heard about this.
