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

"As a servant in the library, almost no one dies a good end..."

Xin Zhiping turned around and looked at Li Lan, saying slowly, "No matter how careful you are, over time you will become withdrawn and strange. In fact, your mind has been affected."

"As menial laborers, we have no choice... we can only unite and try to delay that day as much as possible."

"Let's comfort and care for each other. Whoever shows signs of deterioration, the others should help..."

Xin Zhiping recounted the story calmly.

Clearly, she was the "big sister" among this group of menial workers.

Li Lan nodded silently. He had always understood that this world was not only filled with the magnificent war between the two realms, the glorious fact of the ancestral god's conquest of the demon, and the dazzling light of eternity and immortality... but also with the struggles and survival of countless people in many dark corners.

Xin Zhiping has done a remarkable job in uniting everyone; most people from the lower classes, when faced with this situation, would only persecute each other and become entangled in internal conflicts...

Over the next few days, Li Lan began to familiarize herself with the work of the Sutra Repository.

He also began copying scriptures, but to his dismay, he discovered that when he approached the demon's body, the other party became extremely calm, as if it had hidden all its malice and dared not show it to him.

The scriptures contained within the demon's skeleton appeared directly in front of Li Lan, as if they were something he could take away at will.

This left Li Lan with no other option but to negotiate with the other party when no one was around:

"I will take half of your malice and give you peace from now on."

Li Lan spoke softly.

The demon's skeleton seemed to tremble slightly, but in the end, a chilling malice gradually entered Li Lan's eyes!

The malice controlled by Li Lan increased dramatically in an instant.

At the same time, Li Lan also roughly examined the scriptures contained in the demon skeleton, but to him, these things were not rare at all, so he just did it as a routine and copied some to hand over to the Zimu clan.

"There's only one demon on the third floor; its malice isn't enough..."

Li Lan's gaze fell on the fourth floor!

However, he was not in a hurry; being too hasty would also be inappropriate.

"Zhiping, I told you, as long as you give in to me, I can let you leave here..."

On this day, Li Lan was organizing the scriptures on the bookshelf on the first floor when suddenly the voice of the steward Zhou Zhongwen came from a cubicle on the first floor.

"Let me go—"

Faintly, the sound of Xin Zhiping struggling could be heard. Li Lan's expression darkened slightly, and he walked over and knocked on the door.

The room fell silent instantly. Xin Zhiping burst out of the door, a blood-red slap on her face and her clothes torn in several places.

"Wu Heng..."

When she saw Wu Heng, her voice trembled, and she instinctively stood behind Li Lan.

"You bastard, what are you doing knocking on the door? Are you looking for death?!"

Zhou Zhongwen glared angrily at Li Lan. His plan had almost succeeded, but it had been ruined by someone else.

Li Lan said calmly, "Reporting to the steward, today is the day the Transmission Elder is bringing people to select cultivation techniques. They should be arriving soon..."

Zhou Zhongwen narrowed his eyes and stared at Li Lan, saying, "You little brat, do you think I'm stupid? The Transmission Elders won't be here until this afternoon. Now I'll count to three, and either you obediently get lost, or I'll kill you!"

After saying that, he looked up at Xin Zhiping again and said coldly:

"Do you think you're some kind of virtuous and chaste woman? I'll count to three, go back to bed, or I'll kill you too!"

He pointed to a bed in the room and said, "One..."

"two……"

Li Lan suddenly exclaimed, "Three!"

Upon hearing this, Zhou Zhongwen was instantly enraged and was about to kill Li Lan, but the moment he met Li Lan's eyes, he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine.

He inexplicably felt an astonishing chill, a coldness that seeped into his very being. At that moment, he felt as if he were being targeted by a demon from the third floor…

"you……"

He looked into Li Lan's eyes and felt a strange sense of fear.
