Time Travel: Did My Sister-in-Law Get Slapped in the Face Today?

"From this day forward, Lin Ruoxue will wholeheartedly pursue the path to immortality, severing all ties with worldly affairs and having no more attachments to the mortal realm!"

After saying that, she turned and left.

"Ruoxue!"

Lin Zheng stared at his daughter in disbelief. He was as if he had been severely injured, his breath surging, unable to accept what was happening before him. He wanted to stop her, but Lin Ruoxue actually made a move from a distance, pressing down with her palm.

"Father, you cultivate the Blood Fiend Martial Path, which is prone to causing you to suffer from internal energy deviation. Please do not get angry."

Wherever the palm strike landed, Lin Zheng, a top-tier expert, was rendered immobile as if he had been lightly slapped, his internal energy completely controlled.

It was precisely because of this that his surging internal energy did not manage to enter his meridians.

Lin Zheng stared at his daughter, his body trembling slightly. He opened his mouth, but couldn't utter a word. His eyes were glistening with tears.

There wasn't much anger or blame, just sadness.

He seemed to have endless questions to ask and countless things to say.

Lin Ruoxue's long eyelashes trembled slightly. Not daring to look Lin Zheng in the eye, she lowered her head and said:

"Father... just pretend you never had a daughter like me—"

After saying that, she closed the door.

Turn around and prepare to leave.

But in the garden, Lin Ruobing was already standing in front of her, looking at her with tears in her eyes.

"Sis... what's wrong?"

"What happened? Tell us! Dad and I will definitely support you. Tell us... why did you do this?"

Lin Ruobing asked in a trembling voice.

She and her sister grew up together and had a deep and abiding bond. They understood each other very well, so she absolutely did not believe that her sister would abandon her family for the so-called path to immortality!

But what exactly is Lin Ruoxue's predicament?

She is now a Grandmaster, and even the Emperor cannot coerce her!

Looking at her younger sister, Lin Ruoxue finally showed a trace of pain and reluctance on her face, and said, "Don't ask anymore."

With a single step, she was already in front of Lin Ruobing. She gently slapped her palm, trying to force Lin Ruobing away, but Lin Ruobing did not dodge at all. Instead, she grabbed her hand.

Lin Ruoxue withdrew her palm strike, thus preventing Lin Ruobing from being injured.

Lin Ruobing looked at her sister expectantly and said, "Sister!"

She shook Lin Ruoxue's hand.

From childhood to adulthood, whenever Lin Ruobing made a mistake or needed her help, she would act coquettishly like this. Whenever she did this, even if Lin Ruoxue was angry, she would have no choice but to calm down.

Lin Ruoxue's heart softened slightly, and she said, "Ruobing, after you go to the Prince of Annan's mansion, remember to be careful in everything you do."

"Li Lan is indeed a good person. If you encounter any difficulties, ask him for advice."

"Remember this: after I sever all ties with the Lin family today, never call me 'sister' again... I don't want you and Father to be plunged into an abyss of no return because of me!"

After giving this last instruction, she shook off her sister's hand, and in a flash, she disappeared into the night.

"sister!"

Lin Ruobing wanted to give chase, but a strong gust of wind rushed towards her. This time, Lin Ruoxue hardened her heart and did not hold back. Lin Ruobing dared not be careless and had no choice but to dodge.

Lin Ruobing stared in the direction where Lin Ruoxue had disappeared, then stamped her foot and returned to the study to help Lin Zheng up.

"Father... my sister is gone."

Lin Zheng opened his eyes, his face slightly pale, and asked, "What did she say?"

"She told me not to call her 'sister' anymore, because she didn't want us to be dragged into an abyss because of her."

Upon hearing this, Lin Zheng felt both gratified and inexplicably heartbroken. He murmured:

“That’s right… Ruoxue has been strong-willed since childhood. How could she abandon us for the sake of immortality? There was clearly an unpredictable smile that left her no choice but to do this…”

"Ruobing, from today onwards, you must act as if you hate her to the core in front of outsiders, understand?"

Lin Zheng, after all, was a seasoned veteran who had seen many ups and downs, and in the blink of an eye, he had already discerned the advantages and disadvantages.

He believed in Lin Ruoxue.

He also understood that since Lin Ruoxue, as a Grandmaster, could only make such a decision, if he and Lin Ruobing continued to entangle themselves with her, they might end up putting her in danger.
