After transmigrating into the book, I became the little sun of the crazy villain.

Song Zhiyuan didn't care about his father's whereabouts and directly relayed the Grand Elder's words to Master Guiyuan.

“Junior Sister Yun,” Song Zhiyuan looked at Yun Zhao, “the demons have not appeared in Demon Subduing City. The Grand Elder told me that he would send people to search the Southern Forest. Can you tell me the exact location where you saw the demons?”

“Of course,” Song Zhiyuan added, “Could you be mistaken? How could demons appear in the cultivation world?”

“Yes, Zhao Zhao,” Master Guiyuan also said, “Could it be that you’ve made a mistake, or that you’ve mistaken an evil cultivator for a demon? After all, the demons disappeared tens of thousands of years ago and have never appeared again. It’s normal that you don’t recognize them and have made a mistake.”

The other elders echoed this sentiment. If there really were demons, they would send people to search for them. The Lingxu Secret Realm was about to open, and none of them wanted to miss this opportunity.

Although the elders are all at or above the first level of the Nascent Soul stage and cannot enter the secret realm, spiritual energy will permeate the secret realm when it opens, and the secret realm will select those with affinity to enter, without any restrictions.

There are no truly pure-hearted and desireless people; if there are, it's because they don't have enough self-interest.

Even Master Guiyuan wanted to visit the Lingxu Secret Realm.

If there really are demons, that's one thing, but what if Yun Zhao is mistaken and they miss their chance? They'll regret it then.

Yun Zhao glanced at everyone present without changing his expression and said seriously, "I have not made a mistake. Whether you believe me or not, the sect leader and the elders can decide. Yun Zhao will take his leave now."

She informed the sect about the demon race so that they could take precautions in advance. After all, the ancient records state that tens of thousands of years ago, the demon race and human cultivators were at odds, and there were constant disputes, large and small. If the demon race had not suddenly disappeared, the human race would probably have been wiped out.

But observing the attitudes of the sect leader and elders, she realized they didn't care at all. For the sake of a secret realm and the elusive qualification to enter, they were willing to ignore her words.

Yun Zhao was disappointed.

She decided to let them decide, since this wasn't her home and she didn't feel any sense of belonging here.

Even Guiyuan Zhenren and others don't care about their own homes, so why should an outsider like her bother?

Moreover, there is no plot about demons in this book.

Yun Zhao quickly calmed herself down. She left the council hall and walked towards Qi Yan, who was waiting at the door.

"Zhaozhao, have you told them everything?"

Yun Zhao nodded, "But whether they believe it or not, I don't know."

Qi Yan held her slightly cold little hand and warmed it for her. "This is their business. You have done more than enough and done what you could."

"Zhaozhao, don't worry. Even if the demons really make a comeback, I can protect you."

After saying that, Qi Yan said arrogantly, "I'm already practicing the cultivation technique that my mother-in-law gave me. Once my cultivation improves a bit more, if there's any trouble here, we'll go back to my home."

"No matter what, I can at least get a government position."

"Home" refers to the demon realm, and "official" refers to the demon king. They are still outside, so they naturally have to be discreet and careful in their speech.

Yun Zhao smiled and said, "Okay, but I hope everything will turn out well. I still prefer Qingyun Peak."

Putting everything else aside, she also has the mission of guiding Qi Yan onto the right path.

Wait, that's not right. Ever since she rescued Qi Yan, hasn't he been on the right path?

To what extent can she be considered to have completed her mission?

Yun Zhao didn't understand.

And as for the favorability rating, the system still hasn't given her an explanation.

She tried to call the system, but the system kept showing that she was not online.

Yun Zhao: "..."

Why does she have this feeling that she's been tricked by the system?

Probably not. After all, she was the one who asked to do the mission in the first place. She couldn't stand her unlucky constitution that brought misfortune to those around her, and she accidentally encountered the system, so she came to do the mission.

The system's original task target was not her, but because it was bound to the wrong person, it had no choice but to go with the mistake.

Thinking about it was pointless, so Yun Zhao shook his head to stop thinking about those things.

She'll ask the system again when it returns.

In the days that followed, Yun Zhao and Mu Qianqian went into seclusion to break through to the Golden Core stage, while Qi Yan stayed on Qingyun Peak to prevent anyone... especially Song Zhiyuan, from disturbing them.

Song Zhiyuan came twice, saying he wanted to see Yun Zhao, but Qi Yan chased him away from afar.

Even when Song Zhiyuan used Qi Yuan's belongings to threaten and entice him, Qi Yan remained unmoved.

Just kidding, he can tell the difference between truth and falsehood.

Moreover, even if it were real, it would still be an inanimate object.

How can we get Song Zhiyuan closer to Zhaozhao?

Impossible, absolutely impossible!

Yun Zhao was just one opportunity away from forming her core, and she did so the day before she was to depart for the secret realm.

The sky was covered with dark clouds. Although it wasn't as grand as when Qi Yan formed his core, it was still a force to be reckoned with.

Fortunately, Qi Yan and the two sword spirits were there. They blocked the first eight heavenly lightning bolts for Yun Zhao, only leaking a trace, and proceeded gradually, allowing Yun Zhao to slowly adapt.

Only when the last bolt of lightning struck did they step aside, allowing Yun Zhao to face it alone.

Yun Zhao sat cross-legged on the spot where Qi Yan had been struck by lightning, grinning from ear to ear.

Thanks to transmigrating into the book, she also experienced what it felt like to be struck by lightning.

Hey, I have to say, it's surprisingly sour and refreshing!

When the last bolt of lightning struck, Yun Zhao, just like Qi Yan before her, fainted spectacularly. When she opened her eyes again, she was already on the spirit boat heading to the secret realm.

Qi Yan sat by Yun Zhao's bedside peeling spirit fruit for her. When she saw that she was awake, she hurriedly asked her if she felt unwell.

Yun Zhao twisted his body and found that he was fine. After forming his core, not only did his spiritual power increase, but his hearing and eyesight also improved.

She touched her stomach. "I'm a little hungry."

Qi chuckled, "It's been prepared for a long time."

As he spoke, he pulled out a large pile of food that had been prepared beforehand, and let Yun Zhao feast on it.

Even though Yun Zhao is now capable of abstaining from grains, he still loves to eat.

Qi Yan had no interest in food; he'd rather spend that time cultivating so he could protect Zhao Zhao once they entered the secret realm.

Yun Zhao handed him a small, milky-scented steamed bun. "Eating isn't just about filling your stomach; it's also about enjoyment. What's the point of living if you can't eat delicious food anymore?"

Food is the most important thing for people!

"Ayan, you should cultivate a little less. If you break through to the Nascent Soul stage during this time, you won't be able to enter the secret realm!"

The cultivation level requirement for the secret realm is Golden Core or higher, but below the first level of Nascent Soul. Yun Zhao and Qi Yan are right at the very beginning and the very end of this requirement.

One of them had a lower cultivation level and the other had a higher cultivation level, so neither of them could get in.

Qi Yan thought to himself, "He just cultivates casually, how could he reach the Nascent Soul stage so easily?"

This place isn't a place rich in spiritual energy.

However, having a meal with your loved one is a very happy thing.

So, Qi Yan finished his cultivation, sat down next to Yun Zhao, and ate with her.

Outside, a passing disciple used a cleansing spell to remove the powder from his hands, then left with a sullen face, took a long detour, and entered Song Zhiyuan's room.
