Bone-stripping and tendon-pulling? The reborn senior sister becomes the number one cultivator in the

"How is this going?"

Xie Wanning looked in horror at the frost that had suddenly formed on her body, and a piercing pain shot through her.

The frost spread extremely quickly, covering Xie Wanning's face completely. She was now unable to move, like an ice sculpture.

Xie Wanning struggled to break free, but only heard the sound of ice cracking, yet the ice never left her body.

She tried to manipulate the fire elemental root, but found that it had already awakened, but was suppressed by the ice elemental root.

What was originally just a coldness emanating from the outside now feels extremely cold inside the body.

it's too cold.

Xie Wanning felt her eyelids were heavy, as if she were about to fall asleep.

"Fellow Daoist Xu." Lin Xuanjin's incredulous voice forced Xie Wanning to open her eyes and meet a pair of shocked eyes.

"The frost on Fellow Daoist Xu's body is caused by the Cold Poison. Why is that?" Lin Xuanjin channeled spiritual energy into Xie Wanning, melting some of the surface frost, but it was still to no avail.

"I acquired the Cold Poison because I practiced the Cold Sword Technique. This poison cannot be transmitted without sword techniques." Lin Xuanjin frowned, feeling helpless and filled with self-blame.

Xie Wanning felt a chill all around her, and she could no longer hear Lin Xuanjin's words.

She fainted.

When Xie Wan opened her eyes again, she found herself in a vast snowfield, surrounded by a boundless expanse of white.

Xie Wanning stood up and looked around, feeling lost and helpless.

"Where is this place?"

Xie Wanning was walking in the snow when suddenly, a dazzling red appeared in front of her.

The woman was dressed in a red robe, with skin as smooth as jade, and striking red ends to her long, black hair. A plum blossom mark appeared on her forehead.

Xie Wanning chased after her, trying to call out to the woman, but no sound came out.

Moreover, her legs began to freeze, and she collapsed helplessly to the ground. The snow soaked her clothes, and the biting cold was unbearable.

Xie Wanning watched that figure leave, leaving herself struggling in the same spot.

She was alone again.

No one will stop for her; everyone will leave her.

"Come with me, I'll take you away."

Xie Wanning looked up and saw "herself," "herself" with scarlet eyes.

"Are you... my inner demon?" Xie Wanning asked uncertainly.

Xie Wanning nodded and said calmly, "You are currently being eroded by the Cold Poison and are in imminent danger. I am here to save you."

"Why should I believe you?" Xie Wanning smiled disdainfully.

"Because we are one. I understand your desire. You wish to be an ordinary disciple, to live an ordinary life, to have a loving master, to admire your junior brothers and sisters, and to strive to cultivate the Great Dao to protect those you love."

"But reality is cruel. You were stabbed to death by your master, framed and abandoned by your junior brothers and sisters, and even when you wanted to join a new sect, all you got was endless suspicion and trouble that you couldn't solve. You yourself were also inexplicably burdened with the heavy responsibility of finding the chosen one."

"Xie Wanning, you are very tired. But you still need to keep sacrificing yourself, even if you are poisoned. Why should other people's cultivation only require them to focus on their own cultivation, while you have to bear the fate of so many people? Why not give everything to me and let's live well? Abandon everything and you can live freely."

Xie Wanning didn't say anything; she was indeed tempted.

She didn't understand why she was always the one being abandoned, and she didn't understand why she was made to search for the chosen one. If being a little selfish would make things much easier, then what should she choose?

Xie Wanning cupped her face in her hands, her voice full of seduction: "Come on, let's become one."

If letting go can truly give her freedom, why not?

The surrounding wind and snow grew stronger, and the pure white snowfield was stained black.

"enough!"

A deep blue sword pierced through "Xie Wanning" in front of her, and she turned into a layer of black mist and disappeared in front of Xie Wanning.

"I'm sorry I'm late, you little idiot." Xie Wanning fell into a warm embrace, which left her in a daze for a long time.

She hadn't been hugged in a long time.

In my memory, three years ago, Tian Ruochun hugged her once.

Xie Wanning saw the person in front of her clearly. She had deep red pupils and was surrounded by raging flames that melted the cold frost on Xie Wanning's body.

"Are you another 'me'?" Xie Wanning thought of the few pieces of paper that had helped her.

She stood up and introduced herself very seriously: "That's right, to be precise, I am you who possesses all the memories. I sealed away some of your memories and separated myself from you as an individual."

"why?"

“To survive.” Her expression was very serious: “We have all died, at different times. We are phoenixes, and if our bodies die but our spirits remain, we can come back to life. However, someone needs our deaths to fulfill His wishes. We can only survive by uniting the power of other chosen ones.”

Xie Wanning felt a deep sense of exhaustion as she thought about the six remaining chosen ones.

The 'she' in front of me won't tell Xie Wanning all her memories. Can I really trust 'her'?

Xie Wanning's thoughts were in turmoil, so she chose to remain silent.

She sighed: "I know you're tired and don't want to continue with any missions. You can't argue with that. But don't give up yet, there will be someone worth pushing you forward."

"It's been so long since I've seen Xiaotian, don't you want to go see her?"

Xie Wanning nodded; she missed her innocent and adorable younger sister.

"I will tell you the whole truth, that day is not far away. I will always be with you, don't be afraid." Her embrace was warm, and Xie Wanning felt a pang of sadness in her heart.

If she were no longer alone, perhaps she could really continue on this path.

Xie Wanning gradually calmed down and fell into a deep sleep.

But before I went to sleep, I heard someone say, "I will always wait for you."

After sleeping for an unknown amount of time, Xie Wanning finally woke up.

A white figure sat at the head of the bed; it was Lin Xuanjin.

"You're awake, that's wonderful." Lin Xuanjin's face was filled with obvious joy.

"How long have I been asleep?" Xie Wan Ning asked, rubbing her head, feeling dizzy.

"Seven days."

Xie Wanning suddenly woke up with a start; the sect competition was about to begin in thirteen days.

But did she really become a disciple of the Twilight Snow Sect?

Xie Wanning recalled the words in her dream.

Is she still being suspected by Lin Xuanjin?

"Master..." Xie Wan Ning hesitated, unsure how to begin.

“Disciple, I already know your purpose in coming to the Twilight Snow Sect. Meng Qingyue has already told me. Moreover, I have also inquired a lot about the rumors about you in the cultivation world.”

Xie Wanning felt a chill run down her spine. She had originally intended to tell Lin Xuanjin herself to avoid any unnecessary misunderstandings. However, if Lin Xuanjin heard the rumors about her, many things would become difficult to explain.

"I'm sorry, Master, I lied to you and didn't tell you my identity beforehand. I will only bring trouble to the sect, and I will leave on my own." Xie Wanning was dejected, her whole body drooping like a bent stalk of wheat.

"Don't blame yourself. I have my own judgment. You risked your own safety to save my life, which shows you are a kind-hearted person, not the treacherous and ruthless person the rumors portray. I have always been grateful for your kindness to the sect, so I have accepted your identity. You are now the senior sister of the Twilight Snow Sect, my eldest disciple. I will protect you." Lin Xuanjin's words were firm and powerful, striking Xie Wanning's heart like a club.

Xie Wanning looked up in disbelief, speechless with surprise.

But when I met a pair of sincere eyes, a wall in my heart seemed to break down.

"Yes, Master."
