Quick Transmigration: Survive to the End

Hongyao paused in her hand as she was fixing her hair, then covered her clear eyes with her hand: "I can't say this to you directly. You have to ask the sect leader. That's what it takes to be capable of."

In the darkness, Yin Yin's eyelids trembled slightly.

Isn't this equivalent to admitting there's more to the story, but she can't say it?

But judging from Xuan Nu's appearance, it's unlikely that you'll get any information from her in a short time.

Yinyin closed her eyes, circulated her internal energy, and went to sleep.

Anyway, Xuan Nu promised the Third Elder that she would come often in the future, and she didn't believe that she could be kept in the dark again after coming a few more times.

The Third Elder's birthday banquet has ended, and Xuan Nu has also mentioned that she will be returning in a few days.

Yinyin thought that since she had come all the way to Pengshan, she couldn't just leave without seeing any of the scenery, so she decided to go out.

"Sister, I want to go beachcombing, do you want to come with me?"

"Go beachcombing?" Lin Jingjing hesitated for a moment before saying, "I won't go."

This answer was unexpected for Yin Yin, since Lin Jingjing usually preferred to go out more.

Faced with her sister's question, Lin Jingjing coughed lightly and said, "I feel that my whip technique is not as good as yours, so I plan to practice more."

"Oh," Yin Yin initially wanted to believe it, but seeing the guilty look in her sister's eyes, she felt that she couldn't believe it at all.

"Okay," Lin Jingjing said, her face falling, and told her sister the truth, "I just feel a little scared looking at the sea."

"The sea looks so deep. Even when the weather is good, the waves are quite big. A couple of days ago, when it was pouring rain, I saw the sea outside from upstairs, and it was really scary."

Once she heard her say that, Yin Yin understood. Although her sister had been in contact with water before, this was indeed her first time in the sea.

She should have been very excited, but before she could properly appreciate the charm of the sea, she was tormented by seasickness.

Having been seasick the whole way, Lin Jingjing naturally felt apprehensive upon seeing the waves of the sea.

When she saw the sea again, now completely different from the sky, she felt only fear and wanted to avoid it.

"Then I'll go by myself, sister," Yin Yin said, having Hong Yao put a sun protection veil on her before following Yi Ren, who had prepared the tools and was waiting for her.

The beach that Yiren had inquired about was very close to this house; it was almost a short walk from a side door.

Both of them had a good sense of direction, and after asking for directions, they arrived at their destination quickly without needing anyone to lead the way.

Pengshan is located in the sea, and not many people on the island make a living from it. It is rich in resources. Not far away, Yinyin found a small bulge.

"Yinyin?" Yiren saw her stop. "We need to walk a little further over there."

Yinyin cleared her throat: "Aunt Yiren, I've done some calculations, and I'm sure there's something good here!"

"Oh?" Yi Ren, who was playing with her, asked in a supportive tone, "Where is it?"

“It’s right here…” Yinyin shook the small tongs in her hand, rummaged around on the bulge a couple of times, and then picked up a plump cat’s eye snail. “Auntie, look!”

Yi Ren's eyes lit up: "Wow, Yin Yin! It's so big, and the shell is so beautiful. After we finish eating it, we'll wash it and make it into a decoration for you."

“Okay,” Yinyin was quite satisfied with the appearance of the cat’s eye snail. “Auntie, let’s look around and see if we can find more pretty seashells so we can make some seashell wind chimes for you and the others to take back.”

Although the original purpose was to go beachcombing and see if we could catch anything delicious, what we could bring back for our sisters was obviously more interesting at this moment.

Yi Ren readily agreed, obediently changing her original plan from finding seafood to finding pretty seashells and collecting some seafood along the way.

But surprisingly, even though the purpose was changed, the result didn't change much. The two collected quite a few pretty seashells and also got a lot of plump seafood.

They even found many good things that they hadn't noticed before, but accidentally caught a glimpse of while collecting seashells and ended up in their buckets.

The two originally thought they would play for at least an hour before returning, but unexpectedly, in only about half an hour, not only Yiren's bucket, but also Yinyin's bucket, which was just for show, was filled with a lot of things.

Looking at the beach, which was full of treasures, the two exchanged a glance and both saw the regret in each other.

"Auntie, we should have brought a big bucket."

“That’s right,” Yi Ren said, somewhat annoyed. They were still having a great time, but there was nowhere to put their things. Were they just going to go back like this?

"Or..." Yinyin thought for a moment, "Should we throw out all the smaller ones, and also pick out the shells that don't look particularly pretty?"

“Good idea,” Yi Ren immediately agreed with her idea. After all, this way of selecting would create more space, and they could play a little longer.

When their buckets were full for the third time, they had had their fill. Finally, Yinyin took the tongs and Yiren carried their bountiful harvest home.

The two returned the way they came, and as soon as they passed a rockery, they heard someone talking behind the wall next to the rockery.

"Xuan Nu has been gone for so many years, why didn't she just grow old and die outside? What's the point of her coming back?"

Yinyin and Yiren stopped in their tracks in tacit agreement.

"Yes, so many people in Pengshan hate her lineage, yet she's so bold as to bring her disciples back with her."

"I heard she's already a top-tier expert, so naturally I'm not afraid."

"Really? No wonder. But even if she becomes a top expert, so what? With what her master did back then, Pengshan will never accept her lineage again."

"If you ask me, Xuan Nu is really unlucky. She clearly has the highest talent, but she ended up becoming the disciple of a villain. She didn't receive much instruction and has to carry a lot of resentment. She is hated wherever she goes."

"She's unlucky? After such a big incident, she was protected by the elders, and the four envoys still acknowledge her as their junior sister. You're really meddling in other people's business!"

"Alright, alright, that person isn't dead yet, so the four envoys naturally have to be somewhat wary and give him face. But if one day... then things will be different."

Towards the end, the most crucial part became unclear. However, judging from the tone of voice, there should have been three voices.

Yinyin looked up at Yiren and made a gesture to her.

Yi Ren nodded, put down the bucket in her hand, and took advantage of the artificial hill to climb up the wall in a few quick movements. With just one glance, she frowned and flew back.

Yinyin sensed something was wrong: "Aunt Yiren?"

“There’s no one on the other side of the wall,” Yi Ren glanced around but found nothing unusual. A hint of ruthlessness appeared in her eyes. “Someone is plotting against us.”

Nobody's here? Where did those three voices we just heard come from?

If it were someone else, they might suspect they'd encountered a ghost. But Yin Yin, recalling the formation she encountered when entering Pengshan, naturally came up with a more plausible guess.

"Auntie," Yin Yin called out to her, rubbed her eyes, and burst into tears as the woman looked on in bewilderment.

"Someone is bullying us! Let's go find our master!"
