Time flowed by as the moon set and the clouds rose. Within the enormous Kunlun Mountains, countless people were busy walking their own paths. However, compared to the towering mountains, people were often like extremely tiny ants. They were busy doing their own thing all day long, yet they forgot to raise their heads to look at the boundless sky.
Yi Xin walked on the road of Rockpan Mountain, her face calm, without any extra expression. She was an official disciple, so she did not have to work all day long in exchange for a meager pay like the handyman disciples. However, she still needed help with some things like sorting and identifying spiritual materials. Besides, this kind of work also had great benefits. She could identify many useful spiritual materials, familiarize herself with their properties, and lay a solid foundation for her future alchemy or exploration.
There were many huge rocks on Rockpan Mountain. One of the branch halls of Baicao Tang was built on the big rocks on the mountain. From afar, one could see the flying eaves and blue tiles. It looked extraordinary. Yi Xin was not the only one on the road. There were many disciples of Baicao Tang who had the same status as her coming and going. Many people noticed Yi Xin, and many people pointed at her and whispered to each other.
Rumors were bound to spread at all times.
Yi Xin didn't look at her fellow disciples. As she walked, the conversation she had with Lu Chen a few days ago, as well as some of the instructions he had given her after that, couldn't help but echo in her mind.
"In the vicinity of Rock Mountain, from Hundred Herb Hall's branch, are there any female jindan masters with profound cultivation and bad tempers?" This was what Lu Chen had asked her that day.
"There are. There are many female disciples in Baicao Tang. There are also a few female Jin Dan Friar who are successful in cultivation. The one who came recently is Martial Uncle Yan of Melaleuca Japonica. She is strict, and all the disciples are afraid of her."
"Great. God is on your side."
"But … but the great cultivators of Jin Dan State never bother to know, and they don't care about our trivial matters."
"Then we'll force her to know, force her to take care of it."
"Ah? How can I do that? "
"That depends on whether you are ruthless enough …"
"Big Brother Lu, you're saying that again. I always feel scared when I hear it …"
The warm sunlight shone down on Yi Xin's body, making her feel a trace of warmth. She took a deep breath and forced herself to reveal a trace of a smile before walking towards the hall.
The day passed uneventfully. In the afternoon, Yi Xin walked out of the main hall and began to walk down the mountain. When she arrived at the foot of the mountain, she pretended to casually glance at the flat and spacious spiritual fields. She saw many Odd Job Disciples working hard in the spiritual fields at the foot of the mountain. Unsurprisingly, she found a familiar face among them.
Inconspicuous, Lu Chen stood in a spiritual field and smiled at her from afar.
For some reason, seeing that smile, Yi Xin seemed to feel a little more support in her heart, and her originally panicked mind calmed down a little. But before she could think of what to do, suddenly, a gloomy and even somewhat hostile voice suddenly came from not far away.
"Junior Sister Yi, what a coincidence. We meet again."
Yi Xin's heart jumped, and her hands subconsciously clenched into fists. Then she turned her head to look, and what entered her eyes was that extremely ugly and frightening face.
…
Yi Xin slowly lowered her head, and there seemed to be a little fear on her face. She said in a low voice, "Senior Brother He …"
He Gang looked at Yi Xin's pretty face, and saw that the fear and weakness not only did not damage her beauty in the slightest, but instead added a bit of sadness and delicateness to her beauty. He felt as if a scorching flame suddenly burned in his heart, like a wild beast suddenly roaring in his body.
His eyes revealed a look of greed and desire, but his tone was very calm. He only smiled and said, "Junior Sister Yi, I have something to say to you."
Yi Xin slightly raised her eyes, looked at that face, and found that when He Gang smiled, the scar on his face twitched, that face became more and more frightening. She couldn't help but take a step back, and after two hurried breaths, said, "Senior Brother He, if you have something to say, you can say it here."
"Here?" He Gang sneered, looked at the many handyman disciples in the surrounding spiritual fields, and a look of contempt appeared in his eyes. He said, "There are too many people here, Junior Sister Yi, let's go to a place with fewer people to talk."
As he spoke, He Gang walked towards the forest that day. Yi Xin's expression changed slightly, and she looked a little hesitant. He Gang suddenly turned back, and with a ferocious look, he shouted fiercely, "Junior Sister Yi!"
Yi Xin's face showed a painful expression, but in the end, she finally slowly walked out, and followed He Gang into the forest. This scene fell into the eyes of many handyman disciples, and even many official disciples of Baicao Tang who passed by and watched from afar also saw it. For a moment, everyone looked at each other.
The forest was very quiet. He Gang looked very happy that Yi Xin had to follow him, and he walked in front proudly. Yi Xin, on the other hand, slowly followed behind him. Lu Chen's words to her echoed in her mind. Every single word sounded simple and clear, but it was as if a knife was stabbing into her heart, and it was filled with pain and determination.
"I told you to be ruthless, not to be ruthless to He Gang, because it's useless."
"Nowadays, there are countless rumors about He Gang. Even if you kill him, you won't be able to shut people's mouths. Instead, you'll become the target of gossip, and your Yi Family will definitely not be able to withstand He Yi's vengeance."
"He Gang is the one who wants you, and wants to skin you alive. I don't know about He Yi, but maybe someone like him needs all the resources to help him break through to the Jin Dan. He might even be tempted by your Yi Family's property. What do you think?"
"You'll lose both your wealth and your family! Can you stand it? Can't stand it? That's why you have to be ruthless to yourself! "
"You have to be ruthless to yourself to the point where everyone is scared and in disbelief. Then, everyone will believe you."
"In this world, how can there be such a comfortable thing as reaping without sowing? Even if there is, it's not between you and me! "
"That's why you have to be ruthless to yourself." Lu Chen said with a smile.
Yi Xin recalled that night, Lu Chen's voice and blurry face in the dark. She suddenly shuddered.
She stared fixedly at He Gang, who had stopped in front of her and turned around to look at her with a hateful smile. Her eyes twitched, and her body trembled slightly.
All of this fell into He Gang's eyes. He looked at Yi Xin as if he was looking at a weak little chick. A tyrannical emotion seemed to rise from his heart. That terrifying scene of countless ferocious black dogs barking and biting each other flashed across his mind, causing him to tremble uncontrollably.
He was scared! He was scared to death. Every time he dreamed of that scene, he would be scared to the point of peeing his pants. And every time he saw Yi Xin's beautiful face, he would angrily think, why, why was she able to escape safely, while he had to suffer like that.
Everything was her fault!
I want to let her taste that kind of pain!
Ruthlessly ravage her, torture her, make her scream in pain. He crazily imagined it, as if this was the only way he could feel uncontrollable pleasure.
It was at this time, He Gang heard Yi Xin open her mouth, and with a trembling voice, she said:
"He … Senior Brother, don't force me like this, okay?"
That young girl, seemed like she was about to cry. There were tears in the corner of her eyes, and as if she had gathered all her courage, she said this to him.
