So, poor Lin Xiao came alone, but when he went back, he was persuaded by Su Jin'er to bring three more children with him.

As for why there are only three? That's because Yu Xianxian went back to sleep after Liu Yuanyuan and Su Jin'er stopped arguing.

What a joke! Young man, how can you waste your precious youth watching plays? Of course, lying down and sleeping is the best thing to do.

So, when noon arrived, Yu Xianxian woke up and looked at the empty room, feeling lost. Where were they?

After much thought, she finally remembered something important.

It seems, perhaps, that the third trial has already begun at this point.

So, she missed the exam?

……

After a brief moment of deep thought, Yu Xianxian lay down again.

Well, since it's too late anyway, I might as well keep sleeping. After all, this might be the last sleep I get before I'm expelled from the immortal sect.

No sooner had she lain down and covered herself with the blanket than she heard a "thud," as if something had fallen to the ground.

Curious, Yu Xianxian peeked out from beside the bed and immediately spotted a yellowed book.

"What is this?"

As Yu Xianxian picked up the book and flipped through it, she muttered, "No wonder I felt like something was stuck to me last night. Turns out it was a book. But where did this thing come from? I've never seen it before."

Apart from the fact that there is no title on the cover, this book is nothing special.

Yu Xianxian was just casually browsing around when a name she happened to glance at immediately captured her full attention.

The page read, "Shen Mengxi followed the trail to a secluded cave, and as she expected, the missing babies were hidden there."

Turning the page again, it reads, "Shen Mengxi stood with her sword in hand, coldly smiling as she looked down at the demonic cultivator who had slaughtered countless infants. Then..."

Turning the page again, the main character is still Shen Mengxi, and the content is all very familiar to Yu Xianxian, since she wrote it herself.

Holding the little yellow book, Yu Xianxian barely thought for half a second before she immediately realized what it was. Could this be the script she had written back then?

Instantly, Yu Xianxian felt the little yellow book in her hands become sacred. She held it up with both hands, and just looking at it, she felt that the book seemed to faintly radiate a light of redemption.

But the next second, Yu Xianxian, having regained her composure, lowered her hand again.

Wait a minute, what use would she have for these past events? People should look forward; she wants a script that can predict the future.

Yu Xianxian's devout expression instantly returned to a blank stare. She coldly tossed the pitiful script aside and prepared to lie down again.

Unexpectedly, the book turned to the last page under some physical condition that the author could not explain, and successfully made Yu Xianxian, who had just lain down, "jump up" and get up again.

She flipped through the last few pages of the book, her eyes growing increasingly incredulous.

"These descriptions seem to be about me."

As Yu Xianxian finished speaking, words began to appear out of thin air on the book, as if written by an invisible pen.

And what was written was exactly what Yu Xianxian said, as well as a certain national essence that Yu Xianxian shouted at the same time.

"Holy crap, is there a ghost?"

"What the hell?"

Hearing the voice behind her, Yu Xianxian shuddered and quickly turned around to look at the person who came in. She then secretly hid the script under the bed where the person couldn't see her.

"Peak Master Ling, what brings you here?"

Indeed, the person who came was Ling Yao. As she was already at the Tribulation Transcending stage, she naturally did not miss Yu Xianxian's little actions, but she did not ask any questions.

Everyone has their own little secrets, and there's no need to know everything. She only came because she noticed Yu Xianxian hadn't been there for a while, so she came to see what had happened.

"It's time, why are you still in bed?"

"Reporting to Peak Master Ling, I am ill, so I am resting in bed."

As a typical office worker who often slacks off, Yu Xianxian is incredibly good at making up excuses.

"Are you sick? Is it that serious? Should I take a look at you?"

"No need to trouble Peak Master Ling, it's just a minor illness, a minor illness."

As the peak master of the Spirit Medicine Peak, Ling Yao can be said to be the highest-level alchemist in the mortal realm. Naturally, she also has a deep understanding of medical principles.

Let alone letting her see it, Yu Xianxian felt that if she spent more time with the other person, she would definitely be exposed immediately.

"Since it's just a minor illness, participating in the trial should still be fine, right?"

"Uh, this... should be fine. But shouldn't the trial have already started? It's too late to get there now."

"It's alright, as long as you arrive before the trial ends, I'll send you using the fastest magic weapon. There'll be enough time."

"Then thank you very much, Peak Master Ling."

My inner thoughts: She really is a beautiful and kind-hearted older sister. I love this heartwarming gesture.

Then, in the not-too-distant future, Yu Xianxian, who was constantly being baptized by the gale in the air, regretted it.

As expected of the fastest magical artifact, it was so fast that she was almost gone.

……

In less than a quarter of an hour, the two arrived at the palace platform.

"Okay, we're here. You can get down now."

"But, Peak Master, I don't know what to do...!"

The moment Ling Yao kicked her off the stage, Yu Xianxian thought to herself, "It's over. As expected, Ling Yao discovered that I was just slacking off and lying, and she killed me to silence me in a fit of rage."

Even as she was about to fall, Yu Xianxian had already planned out what pose she should strike so that she wouldn't die too horribly.

But surprisingly, the expected pain did not come.

Yu Xianxian opened her eyes nervously, only to find herself sitting in a courtyard with a long sword on a table beside her, while she calmly sipped tea.

Yu Xianxian, who had a vague feeling that something was wrong: Why do I feel like I should be concerned about my own safety right now, instead of whether the tea tastes good or not?

Before she could think it through, the courtyard gate was suddenly pushed open, and a woman in blue with a sword at her waist rushed in. She clasped her hands in a salute and said to her, "Senior Sister, the demons have suddenly appeared outside the Immortal Sect. The protective formation has been activated, but it probably won't last much longer. What should we do?"

Senior Sister? Yu Xianxian didn't know why this title sounded so unfamiliar, but in her memory, she was indeed the senior sister of Lingjian Peak.

A year ago, the peak master went on a trip together. The sect leader of the immortal sect, who was also the peak master of Lingjian Peak, Lin Yu, ordered her to manage the immortal sect well. However, when the peak master disappeared, the demons suddenly attacked the immortal sect.

No, the demons? Shouldn't the demons have been wiped out long ago? But when was that? Why does her memory tell her that the demons were never wiped out?

Yu Xianxian shook her head. Forget it, I can't worry about that now.

"Come with me quickly and take a look."
