I woke up to find myself as the villain's older sister.

"Hey, what are you doing here? Hurry up, the ceremony is about to begin." A little boy suddenly appeared out of nowhere and pulled her away.

"Wait, what divine scripture? Where are we going?"

The little boy turned to look at her in confusion. "A divine canon is a divine canon. Isn't the trial the one you look forward to the most?"

"A trial?" Yun Qingyi looked somewhat confused.

"Oh dear, never mind, we'll be too late if we don't leave now." Before Yun Qingyi could react, he pulled her away.

After walking for a while, they finally saw a place with human habitation. "Let's go into town," the little boy said.

Passing through the heavy and tall city gate, one can see that although the city is built on a snow-covered plain, it is still thriving.

Everyone was rushing towards one place.

The little boy led Yun Qingyi through the crowd and squeezed into the front row.

"Look!" the little boy exclaimed excitedly.

As soon as she steadied herself, Yun Qingyi looked in the direction of the sound. Looking up, she saw a huge mirror standing in the air, surrounded by shimmering light. When she raised her hand and her fingertips brushed against the light, she felt a slight burning sensation.

"This..." She was somewhat shocked.

"What's this……"

"Ready to start! Ready to start!" The little boy excitedly tugged at Yun Qingyi's sleeve, pulling her thoughts back to the present.

Yun Qingyi stared intently at the mirror, which had begun to change, displaying scenes one after another.

The first thing that appears in the picture is two men. As Yun Qingyi continues to look down, she can tell that the main characters are the children of these two men, a boy and a girl.

Amid the fathers' teasing, the children from both families were betrothed.

The two children looked at their fathers with blank expressions, but when they saw their fathers smile, they also showed their two front teeth and smiled happily.

As time went by, the two children grew closer and closer, almost inseparable, from childhood friends to teenagers.

Soon after, the two were married, and the bride's sedan chair, with its music and festivities, traveled from one village to another.

Yun Qingyi watched quietly and asked, "Didn't you say it was a trial? What kind of trial is needed?"

The little boy revealed two tiger teeth. "Oh, don't rush. Since it's a crime reported to the Ten Thousand Sins Sect, it definitely needs to be judged. Let's take another look."

"The Ice Goddess can't be wrong," the little boy muttered.

Upon hearing the name, Yun Qingyi paused slightly. It sounded familiar; she felt like she had heard it somewhere before.

……

The scene in the mirror changed repeatedly, and the married couple, who were once deeply in love and trust each other, gradually developed suspicions towards each other.

The man threw the woman's belongings out of the house, yelling, "Get out! Get out of this house! You can't even cook a meal properly, what use are you to me!"

The woman sat on the ground, clutching her bundle, and sobbed, "You gamble all day long. Where would we find the extra money to buy the meat you need? We're lucky if we can even buy some brown rice."

Upon hearing this, the man became even more enraged: "No money? What about your dowry? You're always guarding your dowry, are you trying to keep an eye on me?"

The woman hugged the wooden box tightly and cried, "Damn it, this can't be used! This was meant for Erfu. We have nothing left, we can't not even give him this little thing."

For some unknown reason, the man suddenly let go of the woman's hand, snorted coldly, and then slammed the door shut as he left.

……

Life went on like this, and the little boy named Erfu gradually grew up.

"Father, Mother, your son has gone out. When I become successful, I will definitely come back to take you to enjoy a life of luxury."

Perhaps because they had found some hope, the man stopped gambling, and the woman stopped crying all day long.

But their son never returned.

The men gradually became irritable, and the women often sat at the village entrance, gazing into the distance.

Years passed, but that boy never returned.

"You gave birth to such a fine son!" The elderly man leaned against the dilapidated door, his anger barely contained.

"Erfu will come back," the woman murmured, stroking the small garment in her hand.

Time passes day by day.

"You! Get out! If you can't find your son, don't come back. There's no food for you in this house!" The man lay panting on the bed, the elderly man struggling to sit up, pointing at the woman and cursing loudly.

The woman remained silent for a long time before finally nodding woodenly.

Having been kicked out, she seemed to have nowhere else to go but to look for her son.

Finally, she set off on that mountain path, but in a moment of descent, before she could even scream, she fell to the ground, crashed into a rock, and died there.

……

In the village, as night fell, the man muttered in bed, "Why hasn't that old hag come back yet..."

After a while, he climbed out of bed, picked up his cane, and walked out with difficulty.

"Old woman...old woman, where are you..."

On the way, he saw a person and shakily approached him, asking, "Have you...have you...met my old woman before?"

"Pah! You old bastard, don't touch me!" The man was pushed to the ground and watched the other person leave.

He tried to stand up again, but lost his grip on his crutch and tumbled into the dark, cold pond not far away. The water gradually submerged his body silently.
