1102 - I Became a Villainess and Was Pestered by Beautiful Girls

# Chapter 1102: You Shall Be the First Wife While the Nine Provinces Alliance and the Blood Sovereign Hall were fiercely battling across the realms, their headquarters were notably vulnerable for long periods. Especially after the forbidden zone was discovered, even the alliance chief headed off with a group to provide support. If the demonic cultivators had sinister plans, they could execute them with relative ease. However, none of these incidents occurred. The Nine Provinces remained its usual calmself, even more peaceful than usual, with no malicious acts perpetrated by the demonic cultivators. All of this was credited to the "Holy Maiden of Demonic Cultivators." Over the years, Lian Xin finally achieved the consolidation of the demonic cultivators within the Nine Provinces. She convinced the major figures among the demonic cultivators to support her vision. While notions of "peaceful coexistence" remained largely theoretical, amidst the threat posed by the Blood Sovereign Hall, the plan to unite against a common enemy garnered widespread support. Even among demonic cultivators, those with sense could recognize that allowing the Blood Sovereign Hall to dominate the world would leave them without any path for survival. Since a unified opposition was determined, practical steps had to be taken. The first step was revealing herself. Through unexplained means, while remaining in the Nine Provinces continent, Lian Xin acquired confidential information regarding Tang Xin's exposed identity. She then led a group of sincere and formidable demonic cultivators to the entrance of the Xuan Ling Sect. After the initial shock, Chief Yu Lingzi quickly regained her composure and invited the Holy Maiden of Demonic Cultivators into the main hall. "Your reputation precedes you," said Yu Lingzi, "Your creation of the Pigeons' Guild is well-known within the cultivation world..." "The Pigeons' Guild was founded by Tang Xin and me," Lian Xin corrected with a smile. "...What?!" Although Tang Xin's dual identity had been confirmed, information linking her to the "White-Haired Witch" hadn't yet been organized and sorted out. It's just that this person's mobility and unpredictability made it difficult to gather cohesive intelligence, requiring some time... "If my information is correct, here's how it transpired..." The Holy Maiden of Demonic Cultivators detailed the information she had gathered. Back then, Tang Xin valiantly saved righteous cultivators in Black Dragon Valley, entered a super teleportation array, and left in all directions. Then by chance, she came to Xuzhou, transformed into the White-Haired Witch, met Lian Xin at the Endless Sea, and together they established the Pigeons' Guild to advocate for peaceful coexistence across the continent... After hearing the story, the young chief fell into deep thought. "Wow, so she’s been playing us? She was in contact with the demonic cultivators all along?" "Actually, back at the Tianyin Gate, we were only separated by a wall," Lian Xin explained, "I wanted to reveal my identity to you back then, but she stopped me, saying that given your integrity and righteousness, this matter needed careful consideration..." "You child...such pleasant words! Much better than those senior girls who show no respect for me. I like you!" If these words had come before Tang Xin's dual identity was exposed, Yu Lingzi would have likely flown into a rage and given Tang Xin a thorough scolding. However, given the current circumstances, pursuing past faults seemed meaningless. Besides, it clarified a little that despite her other identity, Tang Xin hadn't strayed from her beliefs and was still fighting to protect everyone. "I have a question," Yu Lingzi pondered, "Did you already suspect the true identity of the White-Haired Witch?" Lian Xin merely smiled without replying. Seeing her expression, the young chief could only helplessly chuckle. "That silly girl, did she really think she could hide it from those close to her? Even Ling Hua noticed a long time ago but never said anything..." With a deep breath, she set these thoughts aside and earnestly asked, "You said you know how to find Tang Xin?" After the world anomaly occurred in the forbidden zone, the life lamp indicating Tang Xin's death status, stored in the Xuan Ling Sect, abruptly extinguished. This situation was unprecedented. Logically, a life lamp links to a person’s soul and can't be altered. Though Tang Xin left alive and well, the lamp had gone out. It was unlikely she was killed immediately after leaving. Even if it's possible, no one truly believed it. There's a saying about wicked people living longer than expected... "Yes," Lian Xin nodded, taking out an unassuming ancient book from her cloak. "This is a sacred artifact called the Nine Provinces Sealing Handbook," she calmly explained. "It records the vast majority of 'secret places' on the continent." "A sacred artifact..." Yu Lingzi gave the book a deep look. This young girl was quite daring, speaking so directly, unafraid of having her treasure snatched... "One entry describes a place known as the 'Land of the Forsaken'," Lian Xin continued, "Technically, it doesn't belong to the Nine Provinces, yet the records refer to a method of entering it from the Nine Provinces." "The Land of the Forsaken?" Yu Lingzi appeared unfamiliar with this term. "It's a very unique space that seals 'people outside destiny' as they appear throughout history. It's naturally resistant to external influence and inherently blocks communication." "Why are you certain that Tang Xin would be there?" Lian Xin turned the book around and showed the content inside to Yu Lingzi. Under the bold characters of "Land of the Forsaken" faintly appeared a fragmented message: “everyone...hold on...reason.” "Someone is trying to send me a message," Lian Xin explained, “I have a premonition that Tang Xin is definitely there and needs our assistance." The young chief didn’t immediately reply but pondered for a moment. After a while... "Very well," she nodded. "I trust you." "Thank you, Chief," Lian Xin politely bowed. "Tang Xin was right about you being a reliable elder within the righteous faction. No matter the circumstances, you can always make the right decisions." "Is that so? Hahaha, you sweet-talking child," Yu Lingzi laughed, "By the way, since you knew Tang Xin for so long, have you ever...you know, with her?" "Uh, well, that...no..." The straightforward question from the young chief turned the Holy Maiden of Demonic Cultivators crimson. "Silly child, as a demonic cultivator, you should know to take the initiative! If you were to have such a relationship with her, I think it’d be most fitting for you to be her primary wife! Hmph, how those other girls behave? They show me no respect as if I weren’t their guardian!" "Um...cough, cough, Elder Yu Lingzi, perhaps we should focus on discussing how to get to the Land of the Forsaken?" "Don’t worry, with me backing you, it’s time those other girls felt some pressure! As the chief, I can make half of her decisions if needed!" "Elder..." "What a wonderful girl... Alright, alright, I’ll discuss everything with everyone shortly. Regardless of future arrangements, the immediate goal is to bring her back!"
