Even hybrid monsters have their day

But more than thirty years have passed, and she looks exactly the same as she did thirty years ago. That alone is enough to prove that she is no ordinary person. He looked at her with a hint of reverence, just like Miao Renfeng had looked at her that day.

Ershan cleared his throat and bowed to Geng Miaowan, saying, "Fairy Maiden, we brothers were able to establish ourselves in the Green Mountain Sect thanks to your rescue back then. We hope that you will forgive us for not recognizing you immediately, considering that we were young at the time."

Geng Miaowan chuckled. What kind of crime was this? She remembered Ershan as a very mischievous and lively child back then. How come he'd become so serious and rigid now, almost like Miao Renfeng? She looked at him, a hint of a smile in her eyes. Not only did Ershan not know how to face her, but even Geng Miaowan herself didn't know how to face this middle-aged man who had called her "Sister Wan'er" just over three months ago but now looked weathered and worn.

"You knew already?"

Ershan nodded. "My master told me about it a few days ago."

At this moment, the middle-aged man sitting on the ground looked at Ershan with a puzzled expression, "What rescue? What sending him up the mountain? What did Master tell you?"

"Oh dear, brother, this fairy is none other than Sister Wan'er, who saved us and brought us up the mountain back then!"

Geng Miaowan wanted to say that it was a strange feeling to hear a middle-aged man nearing forty call her "sister." But that wasn't the point. The point was that the round-headed middle-aged man sitting on the ground was actually Dashan, that straightforward boy.

If she could still see a resemblance to Ershan as a child in his face, she could no longer find any trace of him at ten years old in Dashan's. She couldn't help but sigh, time truly is a cruel and ruthless killer…

"Sister Wan'er, is she really Sister Wan'er?" Da Shan, with a sudden burst of strength, stood up from the ground and scrambled over to Geng Miaowan, peering closely at her. "Yes. Looking at her now, she really does look exactly like Sister Wan'er when she was young."

Geng Miaowan sighed. Not only had she grown up to be ugly, but she had also lost her charm.

"What do you mean exactly the same? They're the same person, okay?" Ershan rolled his eyes at him, annoyed.

Da Shan nodded repeatedly, "Yes, yes, it's the same person..." Then he suddenly glared at Er Shan and said with dissatisfaction, "Why didn't you tell me that Sister Wan'er was here!"

"I'm just afraid that if you find out, she'll come up with all sorts of questions and cause her trouble."

"It's just asking a few questions, how can you call it troublesome?" Da Shan said matter-of-factly. "Sister Wan'er, don't you think so?"

“Yes, no trouble at all.” Geng Miaowan looked at the two brothers with amusement. Ershan’s personality seemed to be similar to Dashan’s when they were young, while Dashan’s personality had developed in a strange direction.

Seeing the somewhat amused and puzzled expression on Geng Miaowan's face, Ershan spoke again, "Sister Wan'er..." He noticed that Geng Miaowan visibly stiffened when he called her "sister." He smiled somewhat embarrassedly, "Just call me Fairy. Fairy, please don't mind. When my elder brother first joined the sect, he was so eager for revenge that he practiced improperly, which damaged his meridians and prevented him from cultivating. After that, even his personality changed."

"Who said I've changed? You only know how to talk badly about my older brother in front of others." Seeing Da Shan's expression, Er Shan was very displeased with what he said. "Sister Wan'er, don't listen to his nonsense."

So that's how it is. No wonder she felt something was off. Fortunately, their attitude towards her was still the same as when she was a child. But… “Just call me Wan’er.”

"That won't do, then... then... let's just call her Fairy Maiden." Da Shan smiled憨厚ly.

Geng Miaowan didn't correct them further and let them call her Fairy. "By the way, is there something you need from me?"

Two mountains, one pointing to a large mountain. "I've come to find him."

He had long heard Da Shan talk about how the fairy was omnipotent, and he wanted to see her to ask her to tell him what happened to the demon that killed his entire village that year, and whether it had been caught. Tonight, when he was half asleep, Er Shan found that he was gone. He realized that Da Shan had come here to look for someone.

Da Shan chuckled twice. He said, "I...I just wanted to see the fairy maiden, there's nothing else."

"Alright, just say what you have to say."

Upon hearing this, a glint of fire immediately ignited in Da Shan's eyes. "Does the fairy know where the demon that killed our entire village that day went?"

Ershan rubbed his forehead, realizing it was indeed about this matter.

"That..." Geng Miaowan thought for a moment. To be honest, even she herself didn't know what happened to that sand crawler demon afterward. However, in the past two days, she also learned about the severity of that strange place on the summit, which was formed by the explosion caused by her activating Luan Hao's energy bead that year.

According to those who knew the situation at the time, although Song Gan and his two other senior uncles tried their best to create a protective barrier, they were still unable to control the power of the explosion. If Peng Yuxian hadn't arrived in time, the entire summit of the main peak might have been blown off. Song Gan also suffered internal injuries in the explosion while protecting the disciples below the peak, which led him to abdicate in favor of Miao Renfeng. He passed away five years ago.

Given the severity of the explosion, the sand crawler demon probably had no chance of survival. However, the thought that she had indirectly caused Song Gan's death lingered in her heart for a long time.

She sighed almost imperceptibly before speaking again, "That sand crawler demon has already been killed."

Upon hearing this, Da Shan's face lit up instantly. "I knew it, I knew it..." The knot that had troubled him for so many years was finally untied, and he chuckled to himself.

Since he could no longer cultivate that year, he had been depressed for a long time. After figuring things out, he placed all his hopes on Ershan, urging him to cultivate and meditate every day, so that he could master the magic and avenge the whole village. As for himself, he would go out to inquire about the Sand-Crawling Insect Demon whenever he had free time, but to no avail. Now, upon hearing that it had been killed by her long ago, he couldn't help but feel a sense of relief.

"By the way, did Fairy Maiden come here this time because of the destruction of the cultivation sects?" After a moment of seemingly crying and laughing, Da Shan suddenly asked Geng Miaowan this question. In his view, someone of her noble and mysterious status must be here to do something important.

The biggest issue in the world right now is the successive annihilation of those cultivation sects. (To be continued.)
