Transmigrated into the villain? Watch my epic comeback in the ethereal fairy realm!

Dai Yao followed Ling Yu and left the Demon Palace as if the wind was blowing on her feet.

Once outside the main hall, Lingyu spoke with a hint of worry, "Sister Yao, isn't it too dangerous for the Demon Lord to send you to investigate at the border?"

Dai Yao shrugged nonchalantly: "Danger? You're kidding! This young lady has superb skills, I can kill gods and Buddhas alike! Besides, there's fun in dangerous places!" She winked playfully, looking fearless.

Along the way, the dark aura permeating the border between immortals and demons made Dai Yao feel as uncomfortable as if she had swallowed a fly, prompting her to complain, "What kind of air quality is this! Thumbs down!" The immortal and demon guards around her all looked serious, and the atmosphere was as tense as a fully drawn bowstring, ready to snap at any moment.

Upon reaching the border, Dai Yao did not immediately fall into a state of tense vigilance like the others. Instead, she looked around like a curious child, observing the traces left by the battle.

"Huh? Something's not right!" Dai Yao pointed to the messy sword marks on the ground, stroking her chin like a learned old scholar. "The style of these sword moves doesn't seem like the style of our Demon Palace. It's more like..."

She suddenly stopped, a glint of shrewdness flashing in her eyes: "It sounds like the swordsmanship of the Zixiao Sect in the Immortal Realm! But the Zixiao Sect has always been upright and incorruptible, how could they do something like this to sow discord?"

The more Dai Yao thought about it, the more she felt something was wrong, so she continued to observe carefully and discovered more suspicious points.

For example, some demon soldiers' wounds look like they were inflicted by celestial magic, but upon closer inspection, a trace of barely perceptible demonic energy is found within them.

"Tsk tsk tsk, this is a big scoop!" Dai Yao rubbed her hands excitedly. "Looks like someone's deliberately stirring things up!" She immediately told Mo Tian and Jun Wuhen, who arrived shortly after.

Mo Tian initially distrusted Dai Yao, this "connected person," but after hearing her analysis, he couldn't help but look at her with new respect.

Jun Wuhen looked at Dai Yao with admiration, his eyes filled with appreciation.

"Miss Dai is indeed exceptionally intelligent; I admire her!" Jun Wuhen said, cupping his hands in greeting.

Dai Yao proudly raised her chin: "Of course! Don't you know who I am!"

Just then, a dark shadow flashed by and disappeared into the darkness.

Dai Yao keenly sensed this unusual movement, her eyes sharpened, and she whispered, "Something's wrong, someone's secretly watching us..."

Dai Yao's eyes sharpened, and she quickly gave chase.

The dark figure moved with incredible speed, disappearing into the night in the blink of an eye.

"Tch, trying to run? Not so easy!" Dai Yao sneered, took out a handful of talismans that shimmered with a ghostly blue light from her storage bag, and threw them into the air.

The talisman instantly transformed into specks of starlight, chasing after the direction in which the dark figure had disappeared.

"A tracking talisman? Miss Dai, what a clever trick!" Jun Wuhen exclaimed.

"Basic stuff, don't praise me, I'll get arrogant!" Dai Yao waved her hand, looking nonchalant, but secretly she was pleased with herself.

The tracking talisman led them to a hidden cave.

Dai Yao and Jun Wuhen exchanged a glance and cautiously went inside.

The cave was pitch black, so dark you couldn't see your hand in front of your face, and a sinister aura emanated from it, sending chills down your spine.

"This place is so eerie, could there be some demons or monsters here?" Dai Yao rubbed her arms and muttered to herself.

Suddenly, a chilling laugh echoed through the cave: "Hehehe... I didn't expect you to catch up so quickly..."

Several dark figures slowly emerged from the darkness, surrounding Dai Yao and Jun Wuhen.

These shadowy figures were dressed in clothing from both the immortal and demonic realms, but Dai Yao saw through their disguise at a glance.

"Oh, is this a group role-playing game? Too bad the acting is terrible, a failing grade!"

As soon as Dai Yao finished speaking, she swiftly made her move, transforming her spiritual energy into sharp blades that attacked the dark figures.

The shadowy figures clearly hadn't expected Dai Yao to see through their disguise so quickly, and were caught off guard.

After a fierce fight, the shadowy figures fell to the ground, revealing their true forms.

"As expected, it's one of Shadow Fiend's people!" Jun Wuhen looked at the dark figure lying on the ground, barely breathing, his face grim.

Dai Yao walked up to one of the dark figures, squatted down, and asked with a smile, "Tell me, who sent you? If you tell the truth, you might suffer less."

The dark figure gritted its teeth and remained silent.

Dai Yao wasn't annoyed. She simply took out a bottle of pills and waved it in front of the shadowy figure: "This is my latest 'Truth Pill.' After taking it, you'll find yourself telling the truth involuntarily. How about it, want to try it?"

The shadowy figure's expression changed drastically, but he ultimately couldn't resist the temptation of the pills and chose to confess.

After obtaining the information she wanted, Dai Yao took Jun Wuhen back to the border between the immortals and demons.

She publicly exposed Shadow Fiend's conspiracy and pointed out that a larger conspiracy was hidden behind the marriage plan, with the aim of provoking a war between immortals and demons.

As soon as this statement came out, the whole place was in an uproar.

In the crowd, some people clenched their fists angrily, some looked shocked and incredulous, and others whispered among themselves, speculating about the truth behind it all.

Jun Wuhen and Mo Tian looked grave as they began to re-examine the entire marriage plan and began to have doubts about Ying Sha.

Seeing the shocked expressions on everyone's faces, Dai Yao's lips curled into a meaningful smile: "The real show is just beginning..."

She turned to look at Jun Wuhen, a sly glint in her eyes: "Young Master Jun, would you like to play an even bigger game with me?" Dai Yao's bombshell announcement completely derailed the negotiations between the immortal and demonic realms.

What was initially thought to be a perfunctory marriage has now turned into a breeding ground for conspiracy. This plot twist is even more exciting than a melodramatic soap opera!

Jun Wuhen frowned deeply, while Xingmeng's face turned deathly pale, and her delicate body trembled slightly.

Even Mo Tian's fat face showed a rare solemn expression.

Only Dai Yao remained calm and composed, as if everything was under control, and even seemed to have the urge to eat sunflower seeds and watch the show.

“Miss Dai, this matter is of great importance. Do you have any evidence?” Jun Wuhen asked in a deep voice, his tone tinged with doubt.

After all, the accusation is so shocking that it's hard to believe without solid evidence.

"Evidence..." Dai Yao deliberately dragged out her words, whetting everyone's appetite, "Of course there is! But..."

She smiled slyly, "Why should I tell you now?"

Everyone: "..." This girl is really mischievous!

Over the next few days, Dai Yao began her "ghost-hunting" operation.

Like a keen hunting dog, she sniffed out the clues left by Shadow Demon and followed them to uncover many hidden agents lurking in both the immortal and demon realms.

Some of these undercover agents were disguised as ordinary disciples, while others held important positions. If it weren't for Dai Yao's special abilities, it would have been difficult to detect them.

Dai Yao didn't alert the enemy, but secretly contacted her connections in both the immortal and demon realms, and quietly eliminated these spies one by one.

That was an absolutely brilliant move!

On Shadow Fiend's side, he originally thought his plan was flawless, but unexpectedly, one mishap after another occurred.

Enraged, he finally decided to take matters into his own hands.

"Hmph, a mere ant dares to ruin my plans!" Ying Sha sneered, and in a flash, he appeared in front of Dai Yao.

The pressure from the Nascent Soul stage cultivator was like Mount Tai pressing down, instantly enveloping the entire area.

Dai Yao suddenly felt short of breath, and her body felt as heavy as if it were filled with lead.

"Damn, this old guy is serious!" Dai Yao cursed inwardly and quickly summoned her defensive magic weapon, barely managing to block the Shadow Fiend's attack.

However, the difference between the Nascent Soul stage and the Golden Core stage is not small.

Dai Yao quickly fell into a disadvantageous position and retreated step by step.

Although Dai Yao knew the power of the Nascent Soul stage cultivator, her stubbornness made her unwilling to be defeated so easily. She bit her lower lip tightly, her eyes filled with determination. Every time she resisted, she poured all her strength into it. Even though her body was about to give up, that indomitable spirit burned like a flame in her eyes.

"It's over, Barbie Q is gone!" Dai Yao cried out in her heart.

Just then, people from both the immortal and demon realms arrived at the scene.

Seeing that Dai Yao was being suppressed by Ying Sha, they disregarded their previous grudges and rushed to help.

"Miss Dai, we're here to help you!" "Friends from the Demon Realm, attack together!"

In an instant, all sorts of spells and magical artifacts flew out, creating a chaotic yet spectacular scene.

Taking advantage of this opportunity, Dai Yao finally caught her breath.

While dodging the Shadow Fiend's attacks, she observed her surroundings, looking for an opportunity to counterattack.

"Old man, don't think you're so great. This old lady is not someone to be trifled with!" Dai Yao's eyes sharpened, and a plan suddenly came to her mind...

She shouted at Jun Wuhen, "Jun Wuhen, do you remember the bet we made? Now, it's your turn to appear!" Dai Yao's shout left everyone bewildered.

What?

bet?

A prize?

When did it happen?

The onlookers said they couldn't keep up with the plot development at all!

Jun Wuhen was also taken aback, but then he realized what was happening and a meaningful smile appeared on his lips.

"Of course I remember." As he spoke, a long sword gleaming with a cold light appeared in his hand, and the sound of a dragon's roar could be faintly heard from the blade.

"This sword is named 'Frostbite,' and it is a supreme treasure of my immortal realm. I will borrow it today!"

Wow, so these two were doing business behind the scenes!

Everyone immediately perked up, craning their necks to watch the show.

Even Mo Tian's fat face showed a hint of curiosity.

The night sky was covered with dark clouds, as if they too were suppressing the tension of the fierce battle. Dai Yao and Jun Wuhen stood on this land, which was in chaos due to the fluctuations of spiritual energy. The trees around them were blown about by the strong wind, but they calmly carried out their plan amidst the chaos.

With the Frost Sword's enhancement, Jun Wuhen's combat power surged instantly, and he even managed to subtly suppress Ying Sha.

"Old man, you didn't expect that, did you? Your grandma has a backup plan!" Dai Yao raised an eyebrow at Ying Sha smugly.

Ying Sha was entangled by Jun Wuhen and couldn't break free for the time being. He could only watch helplessly as Dai Yao took out a bunch of... talismans from her storage bag?

The crowd looked at the colorful talismans in Dai Yao's hand with disdain and skepticism, and some even couldn't help but sneer quietly.

Dai Yao didn't care what they thought and threw all the talismans in her hand out.

"Explode! Explode! Explode!" With Dai Yao's command, the talismans exploded one after another, and colorful lights instantly illuminated the entire night sky.

This scene is even more exciting than setting off fireworks during Chinese New Year!

"Cough cough cough..." As the smoke cleared, everyone was able to see the situation on the field.

Shadow Fiend was blasted into a state of utter disarray, his clothes torn and tattered.

The expressions of everyone froze instantly, followed by a burst of amazement, their eyes filled with admiration and disbelief as they looked at Dai Yao.

"Damn ants!" he roared, about to attack again, when he suddenly felt his spiritual energy become disordered and spat out a mouthful of blood.

"Hehe, old man, how does it taste?" Dai Yao laughed with a smug grin.

Although these talismans are not very powerful, they are mixed with some special materials, specifically designed to disrupt spiritual energy. They are surprisingly effective against experts in the Nascent Soul stage!

Shadow Sha was trembling with rage, but there was nothing he could do.

He glanced at the menacing crowd around him, knowing he wouldn't get anywhere today. He could only glare at Dai Yao resentfully before disappearing into the night.

"Phew, finally done!" Dai Yao breathed a sigh of relief and plopped down on the ground.

"I'm exhausted!"

Jun Wuhen sheathed his Frost Sword, walked up to Dai Yao, and looked at her with a half-smile.

"Miss Dai, what did you just say was the prize in the bet?"

Dai Yao chuckled, took out a slip of paper from her storage bag, and handed it to Jun Wuhen.

"Here, this is the prize!"

Jun Wuhen opened the note and saw the words written on it: "Stop the arranged marriage and give Xingmeng her freedom!"

Jun Wuhen looked at the words on the note, his expression changing slightly.

He raised his head, his gaze deep as he looked at Dai Yao, and slowly said, "Miss Dai, do you know that what you're doing will change the fate of many people..."

Dai Yao shrugged, saying nonchalantly, "So what if it changes? It's not my fate anyway..."

She paused, then suddenly leaned closer to Jun Wuhen and said in a low voice, "However, if you want to back out, it's not impossible..."
