Transmigrated into a book? A vicious female supporting character? A senior sister? Tsk tsk!

Unfortunately, your master is as cold as ice and snow, and he is not interested in women. Not to mention women, he doesn't even have a single female creature by his side.

Therefore, when your master accepted you as his disciple, it attracted a lot of attention, especially from the women who admired him; many of them were quite curious about you.

"What do you think their reaction would be if they knew you gave your master the Blood Spirit Mushroom?"

Yu Zechen's words were mostly teasing, but Tang Xinyan picked up on some key points. After a moment's thought, she suddenly said:

"So, quite a few of the peak masters of the Misty Sect are fond of my master?"

Although Yu Zechen didn't know why Tang Xinyan specifically mentioned Misty Peak, he still answered truthfully:

“That’s right. Yun Wanrou, the peak master of Yunfeng who came this time, is one of your master’s admirers.”

"Yunfeng, Yun Wanrou?"

Hearing Tang Xinyan emphasize the word "cloud," Yu Zechen smiled knowingly and teased:

"Junior Uncle is very good at grasping the key points. Speaking of this, my master has been telling this story as a joke for many years. According to my master..."

Yun Wanrou's real name is Lü Rumei. Because of her good aptitude and hard work, she was considered one of the top female cultivators back then.

Although he might have resorted to some petty tricks in the past, overall he was still a motivated person. After all, the Misty Sect wasn't as ruthless as it seemed on the surface.

So, under the clear breeze and bright moon, even the plum blossoms were like lotus flowers in the mud. But when she met your master, this woman became completely obsessed.

Not only did she change her name to Yun Wanrou, but to be more worthy of your master, she also resorted to any means to become the peak master and named the peak under her jurisdiction Yun Peak.

"It echoes your Cloud Snow Peak from afar, and according to insiders, Yun Wanrou once declared that she was the most worthy of your master, but unfortunately, your master didn't even give her a second glance."

Tang Xinyan understood:

"Heh, so that woman is infatuated with love, sees me as a thorn in her side, and wants to get rid of me under the guise of the secret realm trial?"

Yu Zechen was stunned for a moment, then realized what was happening:

"You mean, the people from the Misty Sect are going to attack you in the secret realm?"

Tang Xinyan raised an eyebrow and looked at Yu Zechen teasingly:

"Perhaps, it's not just the Misty Sect."

Yu Zechen was somewhat amused and exasperated, but his attitude was very sincere as he said:

"Don't worry, although my master and my martial aunt both like your master, they cultivate the path of dual cultivation, and their relationship with men is based on mutual consent."

They may admire outstanding men, but they won't force it, much less prioritize other matters or act recklessly for any one man.

Tang Xinyan was just joking. During their time together, she could sense that Yu Zechen meant her no harm, nor did she detect any unusual fetishes.

It's likely that the way he flirted with her was their Hehuan Sect's usual way of greeting her, especially since Yu Zechen's act of saving her just now, despite his own safety, was also an instinctive reaction.

Given that the two are now in a situation where they have gone through hardships together, Tang Xinyan, though still wary, has lost her coldness.

Tang Xinyan nodded approvingly at Yu Zechen's words:

"Women should be like this: if you love someone, be together; if you don't, then break up. Why be a complaining woman all the time, hoping and suffering?

It's said that forced happiness is never sweet, but some people always insist on trying, only to end up tasting bitterness, and then they blame heaven and earth and take revenge on others.

Yu Zechen was somewhat surprised:

"Junior Uncle sees things very clearly; a child wouldn't say something like that."

Realizing she had inadvertently revealed her true age, Tang Xinyan replied perfunctorily:

"I just read a lot of storybooks, and there are summaries in the storybooks."

Having said that, without waiting for Yu Zechen to speak, she pointed to the tree in front of her and changed the subject:

"We should be reaching the central area soon. Look at the leaves on the leaves here; they're all dark red."

Getting down to business, Yu Zechen also became serious, carefully looked around, and guessed:

"Do you think the color represents the level, with the trees closer to the center being of a higher level?"

Tang Xinyan looked into the depths and echoed:

"Probably. Let's go, the big boss shouldn't be far away."

As she walked forward, Tang Xinyan put Xiaobao into the bracelet's space, because the situation was still unclear and she was afraid she wouldn't be able to take care of Xiaobao.

Yu Zechen didn't quite understand, but he roughly grasped the meaning. The two walked for about fifteen minutes, and then the space in front of them suddenly opened up.

It resembles a circular plaza, surrounded by trees that form a natural enclosure; the plaza is empty.

In the very center, there stands a towering ancient tree, its trunk estimated to be tens of meters in diameter, its canopy lush and verdant, covering the entire open space.

The leaves were a deep, almost black, red, completely blocking out the sunlight and making the open space appear even more gloomy and dark.

Looking at the large tree in front of him, Yu Zechen took a deep breath and hesitated for a moment before saying:

"Do you think the two of us can kill this tree?"

Tang Xinyan glanced around, a half-smile playing on her lips:

"That depends on whether you want to get out of here alive."

As Tang Xinyan finished speaking, the trees on the outer perimeter suddenly sprang up from the ground, completely blocking the outer road.

Even the crevices were filled with roots and branches. Seeing this, Yu Zechen looked at the two blood-red, umbrella-shaped Ganoderma lucidum in the center of the giant tree and smiled bitterly:

"Master, this time your disciple is going to have to pay a heavy price for you."

Just then, the ground shook, and the giant tree moved, pulling out a portion of its roots and attacking Tang Xinyan and her companion.

Seeing the countless white bones brought out by the tree roots, Tang Xinyan and Yu Zechen looked solemn and hurriedly used their respective moves to deal with the giant tree's attack.

Fortunately, Yu Zechen has a fire elemental root, and fire naturally counters wood. Combined with Tang Xinyan's lightning elemental root, they possess an extremely strong suppressive power against evil entities.

The two handled the giant tree's initial attack with ease, burning or splitting many of its roots.

This enraged the giant tree, which not only intensified its attack but also summoned surrounding trees to join the assault on Tang Xinyan and her companion.

As more and more roots and branches grew around them, the two attacked and defended desperately. Even though their moves were as fast as afterimages, they still suffered a lot of injuries.

The giant tree, having tasted blood, grew even more excited and frenzied, its leaves rustling as countless tiny black dots drifted from them.

Tang Xinyan realized something was wrong and quickly took out a stack of explosive talismans, throwing them around. As the talismans exploded continuously, the attacking roots and branches finally found a gap.

Taking advantage of the opportunity, Tang Xinyan swallowed an antidote pill, then continued using explosive talismans, combined with her lightning-based swordsmanship, to clear a path and reunite with Yu Zechen.

Seeing that he wasn't seriously injured, Tang Xinyan confirmed:

"Have you taken any antidote?"

Yu Zechen, slightly out of breath, finished off a round of attacks.
