Chapter 32 – Inner Demons Breed

"No way, buddy.
Are we done pretending?
Not even trying to cover it up anymore!?"
"I know you can hear me! From now on, stop controlling my phone and quit invading my privacy, or I'll take you to court!"
Chen Huaian's tone was serious, and he was fuming with anger.
[Due to the high risk of the Meridian Opening Needle Technique, applying it to a suitable target will greatly increase your proficiency.]
[This application can gain 20% proficiency and reduce the chance of crippling by 20%.]
[The Meridian Opening Needle Technique is powerful and can assist your virtual girlfriend in accelerating her cultivation, as well as stabilize a cultivator's foundation.]
Chen Huaian frowned as he read the three game notifications.
He calmed down and his gaze unconsciously fell on his right leg.
It seemed... not impossible~
After all, his right leg was already crippled, so what difference would it make if it got worse?
Besides, this was just a game item! It said it would cripple him? Nonsense!
[What's this kid up to now?]
The black cat crawled out of the box, jumped onto the sofa, and watched Chen Huaian, who was constantly tapping on his phone. It needed to stay close to Chen Huaian to absorb the spiritual energy emitted by the spirit stones, but it didn't dare get too close, fearing the Ancestral Dragon's presence on Chen Huaian.
[Staring at that black box all day... Wait, is it possible that all the good stuff on this kid comes from that black box?]
The black cat cautiously moved a bit closer, but could only see a pitch-black phone screen, growing more suspicious by the moment.
[If my theory is correct, then as long as I get my paws on that black box, all his opportunities will be mine!]
Perhaps the reason this human could receive the Ancestral Dragon's protection was closely related to this black box.
Because it didn't see anything particularly special about Chen Huaian.
The black cat moved a bit closer again, one eye on the phone, the other watching Chen Huaian's back.
Suddenly, Chen Huaian picked up the set of silver needles beside him.
The black cat was momentarily stunned, thinking Chen Huaian had finally decided to do it a favor and give it a needle treatment.
The next second, it saw Chen Huaian fiercely stab the silver needle into his own right leg.
The black cat: "???"
"Aaahhh—!" The piercing scream echoed throughout the entire hotel.
Fortunately, it was already noon; if it had been morning, other guests would definitely have come knocking.
"Oh my God, it hurts so much?" Chen Huaian glanced at the spot where he had stabbed himself, and the skin there was already purple.
But soon he realized something was off.
The place he had stabbed had been completely numb before!
Now he could actually feel such intense pain, didn't that mean the silver needle was having an effect?
It's just a bit of pain, does Chen Huaian fear pain?
After another dozen or so needles, the black cat, seeing Chen Huaian engrossed in self-harm, crouched down and arched its back, ready to snatch the phone.
"You practice our sect's martial arts but lack diligence, trampling on your master's teachings, which is unfilial!"
"I sent you to the Outer Sect, yet you bullied the Outer Sect disciples, which is unkind!"
"You hold the inner strength mental technique of the Crimson Cloud Art, yet you consider switching allegiances and taking another master, which is disloyal!"
Her Dao Heart was clouded, and inner demons grew.
The smiling mask couldn't hide the hideous scars.
The suffering of the past wasn't something that could be easily covered up.
Daoist Qingxuan's words echoed like a great bell in Li Qingran's mind, scattering the tide of spiritual energy that was about to break through the bottleneck.
First Senior Brother Lu Changtian's figure appeared beside Daoist Qingxuan, a cold smile on his lips:
"Li Qingran, someone like you who is disloyal, unfilial, unkind, and unjust, still dreams of breaking through to the Foundation Establishment stage? How pathetic and laughable!"
"Li Qingran, you actually hurt Sixth Junior Sister, I really misjudged you." Third Senior Brother Yun Zimo looked at her with disgust.
"Li Qingran, give back the pills and spiritual herbs I gave you, do you deserve them?" Second Senior Brother Xiao Yifeng's face was twisted with rage.
Fourth Senior Brother Zhang Hanxiao stepped forward with his sword, his gaze fierce: "If you break through to the Foundation Establishment stage, I will personally cleanse the sect and make you disappear from this world!"
"No, it's not true, I didn't intentionally hurt Sixth Junior Sister, I didn't slack off in my cultivation, I never bullied the Outer Sect disciples, I didn't..." Li Qingran held her head, cowering in the cold darkness. She wanted to defend herself, but countless black hands reached out from the darkness to cover her mouth.
No one believed her words, no one listened to her seriously.
Just like the day of the sect competition when Sixth Junior Sister was injured, and she was struck off the stage by an enraged Lu Changtian. Her defense was weak, her tears seen as deceit and manipulation. Yet she was the one coughing up blood, lying in the dust, while Mu Baishuang only had a cut on her shoulder.
Wasn't Li Qingran also Lu Changtian's junior sister?
Wasn't she also the Sixth Junior Sister of Crimson Sky Peak?
Wasn't she also a disciple of Daoist Qingxuan?!
The onlooking fellow disciples appeared again, emerging in the darkness, gathering around the people of Crimson Sky Peak. She could only watch their disgust and hostility, their pointing fingers; she could only hear the curses and mockery.
"She's the one who intentionally hurt Sixth Junior Sister? What a scumbag!"
"How could Crimson Sky Peak have such a malicious disciple?"
"Probably jealous of how pretty Mu Baishuang is, hahaha..."
"To think Senior Brother Lu, such a nice person, used to take care of her..."
"Such a person deserves to die, should be kicked out of the sect to feed the demonic beasts of Evergreen Mountain!"
"Get out of Azure Cloud Sect! Get out of Azure Cloud Sect!!"
...
Sixth Junior Sister Mu Baishuang hid behind everyone, nestled beside Lu Changtian.
Support us at .
She stood in the light, shielded by everyone, like a little flower being protected.
She smiled at the tearful Li Qingran, her lips moving slightly.
But only Li Qingran, deep in the darkness, could hear her voice:
"Sister Qingran... disappear."
"Someone like you doesn't deserve to live."
