Chapter 26 - Transmigrated as a Fake Daughter in Cultivation Novel

Chapter 26 Song Zhi Xia didn't dare to think further. She could only force herself to close her eyes and not look at Song Wei Zhi, who was resting comfortably. What Song Wei Zhi and the others didn't know was that everything that happened in the secret realm could be live streamed through the spiritual mirror at the Song Clan Martial Arena. With the key in Tian Ming's hand, he could locate every disciple with a single thought and see what was happening in the secret realm. Apart from Song Ru Hai and the heads of the Zhao and Tian Clans, there were also many outer disciples of the Song Clan who sat watching the events unfold in the spiritual mirror. Listening to Song Ru Hai and several elders' instructions, Tian Ming would switch to whichever disciple they wanted to see. Tian Jun Jie, Tian Yan Yan, and many other Tian Clan disciples moved together, killing many exotic beasts along the way. Tian Yue Lan, watching their performance from her seat, couldn't wipe the smile off her lips. Combined with Song Ru Hai's occasional business flattery, Tian Yue Lan's smile grew even more pronounced. She turned to Tian Ming next to her and said, "Master Song, I wonder if I can check on your daughter's situation." Tian Yue Lan was also thinking about Song Zhi Xia on behalf of her son. "Alright." Song Ru Hai nodded. Both his son and Tian Jun Jie hadn't encountered Song Wei Zhi and Song Zhi Xia. How could they build a relationship without even meeting? Without Song Ru Hai's command, Tian Ming had already switched the image in the spiritual mirror to Song Zhi Xia's side. Initially, everything seemed quite normal. Song Zhi Xia saw a fellow disciple surrounded by a giant spider and went forward to help, successfully killing the spider. But then the image switched to other disciples. By the time it returned to Song Zhi Xia's side, it was already dark. However, the heads didn't need rest, so they continued watching. The following scenes, though, made the three heads' expressions turn grim, and even some outer disciples who were preparing to return for cultivation were also captivated. They witnessed their usually serious senior sister move closer to her fellow junior sister, then taking advantage of her while she slept, holding her in her arms. Didn't the junior sister's body stiffen for a moment? Many female disciples were shocked. If they had known the senior sister was like this, they would have taken her place a long time ago! There would be no chance for Song Zhi Xia! As the disciples buzzed with discussions, the faces of the heads turned even darker, especially Tian Yue Lan, whose expression was particularly menacing. "Master Song, what is the meaning of this?" Tian Yue Lan's displeased voice carried. In the world of cultivation, things were different from the mortal realm. It was normal for two girls to embrace each other, but seeing Song Wei Zhi and Song Zhi Xia being so intimate made her feel uncomfortable. Song Ru Hai could only force himself to explain, "Well, they share sisterly affection; it's just ordinary affection between sisters. Master Tian, there's no need to be overly concerned." "Hmph, I hope so." After a while, everyone saw that Song Zhi Xia, who had been sleeping, opened her eyes. Her cheeks were flush, and her gaze occasionally flickered toward Song Wei Zhi's lips. Everyone was puzzled. Did Song's junior sister willingly allow her senior sister to take advantage of her? Was she just pretending to sleep? Seeing this, Tian Yue Lan's expression darkened further. She felt that her son and Song Zhi Xia hadn't even been formally betrothed, and yet her son's feelings were already wavering. Inside the secret realm, Song Wei Zhi and the others were completely unaware of what was happening outside. Cultivators don't tire as easily, so they didn't feel as sleepy; thus, a few inner disciples were already preparing to leave early in the morning. Though they had each gained a lot of spider parts, they still wanted to see if there were any other spiritual treasures. Song Wei Zhi and Song Zhi Xia weren't in a rush. They walked leisurely, occasionally letting Song Zhi Xia practice by killing some exotic beasts. But Song Wei Zhi could see that her little junior sister's mind was preoccupied today. Stretching out her hand to hold the younger girl's hand, she pulled her closer and asked, "Xia Xia, what are you thinking? Why are you so distracted?" Song Zhi Xia blinked her peach blossom eyes and glanced at Song Wei Zhi, then quickly lowered her head. After thinking for a while, she finally decided to share her doubts with Song Wei Zhi. After all, Song Wei Zhi must be more knowledgeable than herself. "Um, senior sister, yesterday when I went to get some food, I saw two junior sisters together, kissing. Is that not quite right?" Song Zhi Xia felt relieved after saying this. She had wanted to ask since yesterday but was afraid that her senior sister would find her strange. She glanced cautiously at Song Wei Zhi, feeling slightly relieved when she saw Song Wei Zhi's composed expression. "Oh, that's nothing wrong. In the cultivation world, partners can be of the same gender or the opposite. It's normal," Song Wei Zhi answered, continuing to walk while holding the girl's hand. Song Zhi Xia's eyes widened as she stared at Song Wei Zhi, "Senior sister, are you saying that women can also form a relationship together?" Song Zhi Xia felt like her world had been turned upside down; her senior sister's words were completely different from what she'd known before. "Yes, so Xia Xia, in the future, you can also like girls. It's great to have girls around, soft and fragrant," Song Wei Zhi explained to her junior sister on the side. The blush on Song Zhi Xia's cheeks deepened, and her ears seemed about to drip blood. At that moment, a thought formed in her mind, something she didn't dare to voice to Song Wei Zhi. Could she also be her senior sister's partner? Startled by her own thoughts, Song Zhi Xia wondered, Could her senior sister accept being with another girl? Did her senior sister's knowledge of same-gender relationships mean that she also felt different about her? What Song Zhi Xia didn't know was that her senior sister had lived through multiple lifetimes and was used to such displays of affection between her nieces. After a short while, they met Tian Jun Jie, Tian Yan Yan, and some other Tian Clan disciples who were being surrounded by a swarm of monkey-like exotic beasts. The beasts were assembling in greater numbers, almost enclosing them. Song Wei Zhi and Song Zhi Xia jumped onto a tree to assess the situation. The situation was dire. The swarm of monkeys seemed endless, and their reservoir of spiritual energy was quickly depleting. Both Tian Jun Jie and Tian Yan Yan were already showing signs of being wounded by the monkeys. The other Tian Clan disciples had to form a defensive circle against the relentless attack. Tian Yan Yan, usually pampered, couldn't bear it. She sobbed with a teary voice, shouting at Tian Jun Jie, "Brother, what should we do? It's all because of that wretched Song family. I think they don't want to form a betrothal alliance with us; they want to harm our Tian family. Oh, brother, save me!" Tian Jun Jie's brows furrowed. Not only had they found no spiritual treasures in this secret realm, but they hadn't even encountered Song Wei Zhi's shadow. What was the point of trying to build a relationship with them? Now they had encountered these unruly creatures. He was beginning to feel an animosity toward Song Ru Hai. His arms were aching from swinging the sword, and his spiritual energy was running low. Yet, the monkeys kept pouring in. Wanting to flee on his sword, he realized they were fully surrounded. He found himself getting anxious. Tian Yue Lan, watching from the martial arena, couldn't sit still any longer. Standing up, she demanded of Song Ru Hai, "What's the meaning of your daughter and your senior disciple? They received my son's plea for help, so why aren't they going to rescue them?" Song Ru Hai could feel his heart waver. "It might be a mistake in the middle," Song Ru Hai dryly explained. His senior disciple, Song Wei Zhi, had a fiery temperament, so he didn't find her actions strange. However, Tian Yue Lan was on the verge of losing her temper, wishing she could enter the secret realm to rescue them herself. Tian Yan Yan also thought help was on the way, but after waiting for a long time with no response from them, she pointed at Song Wei Zhi and the others and shouted, "You also go and find them. There are people on the tree over there." Her voice was loud, and the monkeys, who seemed to have gained some intelligence, followed her pointing to the direction indicated. Upon seeing people, the monkeys started climbing toward Song Wei Zhi and the others' tree like they had gone mad. With Song Wei Zhi's cultivation, she could clearly see things from a distance. Thus, she witnessed Tian Yan Yan's actions just now. Without much thought, in a fleeting moment, many monkeys had already climbed up. Song Wei Zhi summoned the Li Shuo Sword and, with Song Zhi Xia, flew away on their swords. Song Wei Zhi wanted to fly out of this place full of monkeys, but she found that after flying to the edge of the forest, it seemed as if she had encountered an invisible barrier. No matter how much she tried to fly forward, she couldn't move even a step. She had to try different directions to see if there was a way out. However, she encountered the same barrier every time she reached the edge. Author's Note: Song Zhi Xia: Senior sister knows that women can be partners and is still so close to me! Maybe she also has feelings for me! Song Wei Zhi: It's just normal for nieces to be so close to each other; it's basic interaction.
