Ye Luoli: The Charismatic Girl Leads the World to Darkness

The shore of the still lake.

Three dark figures were rapidly approaching the lake shore from the dense forest not far away, shouting as they flew, as if afraid their prey wouldn't notice them and wouldn't run away.

...Well, okay, their prey really doesn't run away.

Wang Mo, Luo Li, and Tie Pi, three weaklings, stood with their backs to the lake. Looking around, they felt there was nowhere to hide, so they stood rooted to the spot, staring blankly ahead as if they were targets.

A few steps away from them, Mo Ran leaned against a tree trunk without any panic, staring intently at the lake, wondering when Yan Xi would remember her.

However, Mo Ran is not comparable to those three weaklings. She is skilled and daring, while the other three... let's just call them Spring Insects.

"Shh-"

A whooshing sound rang out as a streak of cold light shot from afar, accompanied by a powerful gust of wind, hurtling towards Wang Mo.

Wang Mo and the other two: (*???)!!

Mo Ran: [Watching a show.jpg]

Everyone's attention was drawn to the arrows, but no one made a move.

Wang Mo and the other two remained motionless, staring wide-eyed as the arrow drew closer, while Mo Ran stood aside watching the spectacle.

Ran goose ...

The saying "A flurry of activity, but the result is utterly foolish" is no exaggeration.

The arrow struck... no, it grazed Wang Mo's right ear, just severing a strand of her hair, before veering past her and heading diagonally towards the lake.

This breathtaking move made Mo Ran roll her eyes in disgust and mutter a few curses under her breath, while Wang Mo and the other two breathed a sigh of relief.

Wang Mo and the other two: Phew—thank goodness.

Mo Ran: ...(￢_￢) Pah, you little trash wasted my feelings.

However, life is always full of unexpected events, just like now...

"Wow--"

Water splashed everywhere, and a red figure burst out of the water. Before she could even stand still, an arrow shot straight toward her face.

"Holy crap! What the hell is this thing?!" Which little bastard doesn't know any martial ethics?!

Damn it, what kind of behavior is this?!

Yes, it was Yan Xi who came looking for Mo Ran.

The familiar voice startled Mo Ran, who subconsciously looked over and then formed a barrier of immortal energy in front of the person by making hand seals.

It's a vibrant green, and I must say, it's quite pretty.

However, Yan Xi wasn't the kind of fool who wouldn't dodge an attack. She quickly took a step to the side, raised her hand, and her powerful immortal energy enveloped the incoming arrow. Then, she waved her hand, and the arrow turned around and flew back along the same path, with several times the speed and power.

Wang Mo turned around and felt a chill on her neck, and then... her hair on the left side also broke off.

(P.S.: Tell me, wasn't I doing a great job?)

Ink stain: ...It's quite symmetrical.

Yan Xi, who just saw Wang Mo: Tsk, I should have veered a little further to the left.

The idiot who heard Yan Xi's inner thoughts: !!! ((???|||))

You're here to ruin the storyline, not the world, you idiot!

Shocked, the idiot quickly gathered his thoughts and said to Yan Xi, "Hey, Jiu Jiu, can we... can we take away Wang Mo's protagonist halo before talking about anything else? It would be such a waste for such a high-颜值 (high-appearance) world to collapse!"

Yan Xi: ...That makes sense.

After listening, Yan Xi pondered for a second and then nodded, saying, "Alright, actually I didn't mean to."

She just didn't see it.

Yes, I didn't see it.

but……

Upon hearing the screams coming from not far away, Yan Xi suddenly revealed a very kind smile. (▼▽▼)

Instead of staying put, that little slut has to play those old sly tricks, and she even dared to mess with her! She must be bored with life and wants to find some fun!

Since she's in a good mood today, let's be a good person and grant them permanent, free residency in the Western Paradise!

Yan Xi stretched her body, her bones cracking and popping. Then, under the watchful eyes of the foolishly embarrassed man and Mo Ran, she disappeared into the lake.

next second...

"Ah!!!" Two screams came from the forest, so loud that they were heartbreaking and brought tears to the eyes of all who heard them.

Wang Mo and the other two subconsciously shrank their necks: How ruthless.

Mo Ran and the fool stared at Yan Xi's movements with shining eyes: Wow, so that's how you can play!

Shui Qingli, who emerged from the water later, stood quietly on the lake surface, gazing calmly at Yan Xi. If it were a picture, a closer look would reveal a subtle curve at the corner of his lips.

Sure enough, this guy's temper is still the same.

Nothing has changed, that's fine.

Lingxi Pavilion.

Yan Jue was lying listlessly on his side on the head of his stone statue, playing with a fan. His amber peach blossom eyes were slightly upturned, and his face clearly showed two words: boredom.

Suddenly, he propped himself up on his arms and sat up, carefully sensing the fluctuations of immortal energy around him.

He seemed to have sensed his sister's celestial power fluctuations, but wasn't his sister still in the human world and unwilling to come back?

Hmm... he must have sensed it wrong.

Given his relationship with his sister, if she were to return, she would definitely come to him first, so he must have sensed something wrong.

Thinking this, Yan Jue loosened his grip and lay back down, muttering to himself about whether he should go to the human world to find his sister.

The shore of the still lake.

"Hey? Master," Luo Li said suddenly, looking at Yan Xi's strangely familiar movements, "She seems to be the mysterious person who helped us defeat the Otaku Monster last time!"

"What?" Wang Mo was stunned for a moment, then her eyes lit up: "It really is her!"

Over there, Yan Xi beat the Mirror Beasts for three minutes until her anger subsided. Then, she punched each of them in the head, smashing them to pieces. After watching them dissipate, she gracefully walked back.

Reaching the lakeshore, Yan Xi stopped, ignoring Wang Mo who wanted to speak, and said to Shui Qingli, "I have to go now. I'll come back to visit you next time!"

Shui Qingli frowned, her voice clear and ethereal, yet a hint of displeasure could be detected if one listened closely: "Your seal..."

"Oh, I'll untie it when I get back in a few days." Yan Xi waved her hand, then pulled Mo Ran over, and gave Shui Qingli a flirtatious wink, successfully making his ears turn red.

"Bye~" Yan Xi snapped her fingers while holding Mo Ran's hand, and disappeared from their sight.

"Eh..." Wang Mo opened his mouth, but before he could say anything, he watched helplessly as the two of them disappeared.

Luo Li frowned; she felt like she'd seen this fairy somewhere before…

The sheet metal remained quietly serving as its backdrop.

"Humans, the still lake cannot be contaminated by human impurities. You must leave immediately."

Seeing Yan Xi leave, Shui Qingli's expression instantly turned cold. Showing no mercy, she said something and then jumped into the water, using water magic to escape.

“Sigh…” Wang Mo looked at the calm lake surface and murmured to herself, “That person was human too…”

"Master, what did you say?" Luo Li came to her senses, not remembering Yan Xi's identity, nor did she hear Wang Mo's words clearly.

"It's nothing, that person just jumped into the water and disappeared..." Wang Mo said, feeling as if something was getting further and further away from her, and she felt a little panicked, her voice getting softer and softer.

Fortunately, Luo Li had good hearing and heard Wang Mo's words clearly. She smiled and said, "Because he is the water spirit prince."

"Water Prince?" Wang murmured, then asked Luo Li, "Do you know who that human in red was just now?"

Luo Li shook her head, said a few more words to Wang Mo, and then pulled Wang Mo and Tiepi away.

Yan Hua Mirror Palace.

Mandora sat on the dragon throne, her right hand supporting her head, her eyes closed in contemplation, exuding nobility and elegance.

Suddenly, she opened her eyes, gazing into the distance towards the still lake, her brows furrowed in thought.

After a while, she closed her eyes again and chuckled.

"She's back... You guys are just unlucky to have run into that little devil."
