Chapter 178 - Is It Funny That the Reincarnated Senior Sister Is Also Being Pursued?

She had already let go of her macho attitude and acted so coyly. Bai Lian couldn't help but worry about Mu Xinghe's feelings. She had some doubts. After all, she was just a nerdy girl with no experience in love. In the game, she relied on cheat codes to win over the female lead. But reality was different. She didn't have any cheat codes or a perfect answer to guide her. Facing Mu Xinghe's emotions, she could only rely on her limited emotional knowledge to try to resolve the issue. And the best way to handle Mu Xinghe was, of course, to act coy. In the game, she had often acted coy with Mu Xinghe, especially during their dual cultivation sessions when she called Mu Xinghe "sister." Every time she called Mu Xinghe "sister," it worked wonders—tried and tested. Now that she had turned into a girl, calling Mu Xinghe "sister" should still have a similar effect... right? From the conversation between Xiao Chengyin and Tang Mulian, Mu Xinghe might have realized that her tenderness was not something anyone could get, at least not... for her, it was special. Sure enough, Mu Xinghe, with her head lowered, suddenly said softly, "I'm sorry for what happened." Hearing this, Bai Lian felt relieved. She had been confident that her sister's tender approach was effective on Mu Xinghe. After all, she knew better. As a disciple of Tian Shu and Shen Que, Mu Xinghe was actually a very rule-abiding person. Even when she first met Mu Xinghe in the game, she had a somewhat conventional impression of him as a Taoist disciple. It was only after meeting her and being influenced by her that Mu Xinghe gradually broke free from his rule-bound nature and revealed his hidden sinister nature. In that sense, she had done a great wrong... to turn an innocent Taoist sister into what she was now. Ah... in any case, Mu Xinghe was fundamentally a quite rule-abiding person. She would definitely not take advantage of others' vulnerabilities. She probably just lost control of her emotions due to jealousy, resulting in those excessive actions. But that was all trivial! Now, as long as she explained the situation and acted coy again, everything should be fine! Thinking about this, she couldn't help but feel elated, so she decided to strike while the iron was hot and continued to speak softly, "It's okay, sister Mu, I don't blame you..." "How can you not blame me?" Mu Xinghe's voice revealed no emotions. "Misunderstanding?" Bai Lian was confused. Shouldn't the plot be about Mu Xinghe apologizing, her saying she didn't blame Mu Xinghe, and then the two becoming close sisters again? But what was happening now? It wasn't in the script! Mu Xinghe continued, "You've been so gentle to me. You even specifically bought the Morning Star Chain to give to me as a gift. But I have treated your kindness as nothing, compared to a mere warm jade in the room, so lowly. I even forced you to do something shameful, almost damaging your reputation." "It's okay..." Bai Lian said instinctively. "Clearly, I have done so many things that are unforgivable to you, but you have never hated me. Even when I almost killed you, your eyes were still so gentle. After all, you are just such a gentle person." Bai Lian looked at Mu Xinghe in astonishment. At this point, even she, as obtuse as she was, realized that Mu Xinghe's actions were not merely about jealousy. Because Mu Xinghe would never say such things to "Bai Lian." And now, Mu Xinghe seemed... like a completely different person. "Master Mu, you..." she was about to say something when she saw Mu Xinghe slowly raise her head. Her pupils were completely shrouded in darkness, as if she had entirely transformed into an abyss. Bai Lian's face changed drastically upon seeing this. She finally understood that Mu Xinghe was showing signs of falling into a demonic state! But Mu Xinghe practiced the most orthodox Tian Shu and Shen Que technique, which had a natural resistance to demons. As an outstanding disciple, she was highly unlikely to be affected by the demons. How did Mu Xinghe succumb to the demon state? There was no time for her to think about it now. The priority was to quickly bring Mu Xinghe out of the demonic state, otherwise, she would eventually be assimilated by the demon and become a beast acting on instinct! But she was currently unable to utilize her spiritual energy, so she couldn't use the Tai Xuan Heart Sutra to help Mu Xinghe overcome the demon. Seek help from other cultivators? Not possible... Not to mention whether other cultivators had means to suppress the demon, people trapped in a demonic state were extremely sensitive. Seeking immediate help from others might have an adverse effect. Damn, she needed to break the restriction on her meridians as soon as possible... She was extremely frustrated. In fact, the restriction sealing her meridians was not strong. Even though her cultivation was significantly lower than Mu Xinghe's, as long as they were not in close contact, Mu Xinghe couldn't easily impose the restriction. It was her fault for not noticing Mu Xinghe's anomaly early on, allowing her to seal her meridians so easily when they were in close proximity. In only half an hour, the restriction would naturally be released. However, she didn't have time to wait! "Master Mu, don't worry, I will help you suppress the demon immediately!" she said, immediately trying to break the restriction on her meridians. However, while she kept trying to break the barrier, Mu Xinghe did not stop her actions. She stepped forward, grabbed Bai Lian's wrist again, and pinned her against the gap between her and the wall. Bai Lian was caught off guard and almost caused her spiritual power to go wild. All her previous efforts in breaking the restriction were in vain. Silly sister Mu, don't cause trouble! She raised her head resentfully, only to bump into Mu Xinghe's deep gaze. Looking into Bai Lian's eyes, Mu Xinghe spoke in an extremely gentle tone, "I should have apologized to you a long time ago. I hope it's not too late now. A-Lian, I'm sorry. I love you." Bai Lian's breath faltered. A-Lian was the nickname Mu Xinghe used for her in the game. She involuntarily clenched her fist and forced herself to say calmly, "Master Mu, please stop joking around. You haven't done anything wrong to me, there's no need to apologize, or prove anything. Moreover, we've only known each other for a few months, and we're both girls. There's no need to talk about love. Please let me go." Mu Xinghe tilted her head, seemingly processing what Bai Lian said, then her lips curved into a malicious smile. "A-Lian, I know you're still resenting me for what happened in our past lives. But it's okay. I will prove through my actions how much I love you." As she spoke, she suddenly tossed out a delicate white jade orb from her sleeve. Seeing the orb, Bai Lian's expression changed. The orb was called Xuanji Yuheng, a top-grade spiritual tool, which was both Mu Xinghe's trump card and her life-bound magical treasure. Since Mu Xinghe mainly relied on talismans and formations in battles, she rarely used Xuanji Yuheng. However, this didn't mean it was weak. On the contrary, if Mu Xinghe summoned Xuanji Yuheng, it meant she was going all out in battle. But she had already had her meridians sealed, so she couldn't use her spiritual power. Why would Mu Xinghe summon Xuanji Yuheng if she could easily control Bai Lian herself? Soon, Mu Xinghe provided an answer to her confusion. Xuanji Yuheng suddenly began to rotate, then unleashed countless stars, enveloping the corner where they were. From the outside, everything seemed normal, but their figures had disappeared inside the Sword-forging Tower. Celestial Concealment Formation... Since when could Mu Xinghe wield such high-level formations? Bai Lian looked at the twinkling stars surrounding them, feeling incredulous. Celestial Concealment Formation was an extremely powerful deceptive formation. Its main characteristic was not only its ability to trap people inside but also to completely block sounds, sights, and even breaths within the formation. Once trapped inside the Celestial Concealment Formation, it was as if they vanished from the real world. Unless a strong cultivator used their divine sense to search carefully, they wouldn't notice the existence of the Celestial Concealment Formation and the people inside it. The Celestial Concealment Formation had extremely high requirements for the understanding of formations and celestial phenomena. In her memory, Mu Xinghe only learned this skill in the late game stage. It's worth mentioning that because the Celestial Concealment Formation could completely cover everything inside it, she often used this formation as an advanced concealment technique in the game. But the key question was—why was Mu Xinghe using the Celestial Concealment Formation now? Even if she wanted to trap her, Mu Xinghe herself was inside the formation! However, at that moment, Mu Xinghe spoke. She leaned against Bai Lian's shoulder and whispered in her ear, "A-Lian, this is the technique you taught me. Inside this Celestial Concealment Formation, whatever I do to you won't be known to the outside world. You can scream as loud as you want." Bai Lian looked at Mu Xinghe in confusion, trying to see the playful expression she used to have when teasing her in the game. Mu Xinghe's face only held seriousness. She was definitely not joking! In that moment, she suddenly felt that the Mu Xinghe in front of her had become exceptionally frightening, and she couldn't help but tremble as she said, "Mu... M-Mu Shijie, what do you want to do?" "Haha, what do I want to do?" Mu Xinghe bent down and whispered in her ear, "Of course... do you~" As she spoke, she lightly bit Bai Lian's earlobe. Bai Lian had not anticipated such a move from her. A strong electric current surged through her body, leaving her momentarily rigid, then with a gasp, she went limp in Mu Xinghe's embrace. Mu Xinghe held the powerless Bai Lian, lightly chuckling, "A-Lian, your sensitive spot hasn't changed at all." "Fortunately, I haven't forgotten it." Weakly leaning against Mu Xinghe, Bai Lian felt desolate. No, your sister... why did she inherit not only her memories from the game, but even her sensitivity spot? Now Mu Xinghe clearly knew every sensitive spot on her body. How was she supposed to live like this?! Mu Xinghe's assault on her earlobe did not stop. The strong tingling sensation surged like a tide. In the near-eye-rolling sensation of tingling, her voice inadvertently took on a sob. "M-M-Mu, Shijie... please...M-Ming... stop joking... Look clearly, I-I am Bai Lian." "Y-You are not your true self due to the influence of the demon... release me first, and I can..." But before she could finish her words, her mouth was sealed. "Enough of your nonsense!" Mu Xinghe did not hesitate and kissed Bai Lian's cherry lips without any hesitation, prying open Bai Lian's teeth swiftly and forcefully. "Mm-mm-mm—-" Bai Lian's eyes widened in shock. This kiss from Mu Xinghe was completely different from the one earlier. Although Mu Xinghe had also kissed her previously, there was hesitation in her actions, as if she had reservations. However, the kiss by Mu Xinghe now was so intense, as if she had abandoned all restraint and was merely laying the groundwork for a deeper intimacy to come. "No! Shijie... stop... Ming... release... please... Ah..." Tears filled her eyes as she continued to plead. But no matter how much she begged, Mu Xinghe remained unmoved, greedily and assertively seeking her sweetness. Bai Lian suddenly realized that, at this rate, she would be completely at Mu Xinghe's mercy. Immediately, an unprecedented sense of fear occupied her mind. She began to struggle wildly, even resorting to hitting and kicking Mu Xinghe, trying to break free from her embrace. But at that moment, she couldn't use her spiritual power, so how could she escape from Mu Xinghe's advances? No matter how she struggled, Mu Xinghe showed no signs of letting her go. Only when the air in her lungs had nearly run out, and she was seeing stars, did Mu Xinghe finally release her lips. She began to gasp violently, just like a fish washed ashore. The sense of humiliation filled her heart and made her reluctant to let go of this rare opportunity to catch her breath. She glared at Mu Xinghe with hatred in her eyes and gritted her teeth, "Mu Xinghe! You scoundrel! Ruffian! Degenerate! Idiot! You think you are something just because I can't use my spiritual power!" "You're still a disciple of Tian Shu and Shen Que, yet you've resorted to taking advantage of me like this!" "I completely misjudged you!" "If you dare, release the restriction on me, and we'll have a proper fight!" Mu Xinghe watched her stomp and scold her, finding her cute. But rather than her scolding, he decided that her sweet lips were more suitable for tasting. She decided to respond to Bai Lian's insults with action and once again kissed Bai Lian's cherry lips. Although Bai Lian was tough in her words, her lips were soft. Her scolding was instantly muffled by Mu Xinghe's kiss. It was only when she began to black out due to lack of oxygen that Mu Xinghe finally let her go. Mu Xinghe lightly chuckled in her ear, "If I dare, A-Lian, you'll know when you experience it yourself." Bai Lian was already almost bereft of the ability to think, only quietly lying in Mu Xinghe's embrace, gasping laboriously to draw rare breaths into her lungs. Upon hearing Mu Xinghe's nearly suggestive teasing, she summoned the last of her strength, tightly gripping the lapel of Mu Xinghe's clothing. "Mu Xinghe... if you dare... do such a thing to me... I-I will... hate you... for life." Her tone was particularly resolute. Mu Xinghe's smile slowly dissipated, and her eyes were filled with ambiguity. The afterword of yesterday's update!
