7: The beautiful senior sister who was reincarnated as Tianfeng

"System, can I use the bad luck card and forbearance card on others?"

"Yes."

"That's good."

If he couldn't use them on others, Shen Qing would have to put them at the bottom of his system space; there was no way he'd use them on himself.

"Open my personal panel."

"host: Shen Qing"

"Age: 20"

"Destiny: Destined Great Villain"

"Cultivation: Fifth Heaven of Purple Mansion Realm"

"Cultivation Technique: Universe Grotto True Scripture"

"Karma Value: 667"

Stockings... he could try them with Qinghe tonight.

As for the bad luck card, glasses, and forbearance card, he had no immediate plans, but he could use them when he encountered a Son of Destiny at the right time in the future.

Leaving aside everything else, brother jies glasses were... in a certain sense, this item was even more formidable than the Five-Colored Divine Light.

"I need to find someone to test the Investigation Technique on."

Rubbing his chin, Shen Qing was quite interested in this new gadget.

"Following the principle of proximity, I'll go find Senior Sister."

On the entire Xuanji Peak, including himself, there were only four people: Master Zhao Mingyue, Senior Sister Ye Shutong, Junior Sister Ning Zhenzhen. Besides them, there were no other disciples or servants.

Currently, Junior Sister was not on the mountain, and Master was cultivating at the peak, leaving only Senior Sister closest.

After a quick tidy-up, Shen Qing walked out.

His residence was located halfway up Xuanji Peak. The residences of the three senior disciples were all on the mountainside. Although they were a certain distance apart, it didn't take long to walk between them.

Outside the courtyard was a bamboo forest. As soon as he stepped out of his room, he could hear the rustling of wind through bamboo leaves, and the faint green scent of wild grass mingled with the rich spiritual energy.

One could say this was an entire nature reserve.

Although they had built houses here, the overall environment of Xuanji Peak had not been destroyed. On the contrary, with Zhao Mingyue, a powerful Immortal Realm expert, present, it became even more vibrant with life.

Shen Qing stepped on starlight and soon arrived at another courtyard.

This courtyard was no different from his, but instead of bamboo, it had phoenix trees planted outside, with yellowing phoenix leaves scattered all over the ground.

"Senior Sister."

Shen Qing knocked on the courtyard gate.

As his voice fell, the courtyard gate opened automatically, and Shen Qing walked in.

"Finished with the competition?"

The woman sitting under the phoenix tree in the courtyard looked over, her voice cool.

She had cool white skin, delicate brows and eyes, and distinct lines on her nose and lips. A plain white dress draped over the chair.

Her dark hair was simply coiled at the back of her head with a plain jade hairpin, and the wisps of hair near her neck moved slightly in the wind. A chill emanated from her, like a block of ice.

This was Ye Shutong, Zhao Mingyue's first disciple, and Shen Qing's eldest Senior Sister.

"Finished," Shen Qing replied.

Ye Shutong didn't speak, so Shen Qing continued, "I won. It didn't take much time."

Ye Shutong: "Mm."

With that, she continued to read the Dao scripture in her hand.

She was always like this, a woman of few words, the same with everyone.

Shen Qing didn't mind. He cast an Investigation Technique towards her.

"Name: Ye Shutong"

"Cultivation: Seventh Heaven of Feathered Ascension Realm"

"Special: Reincarnation of a Heavenly Phoenix"

"Introduction: The reincarnated body of an Immortal King Realm Heavenly Phoenix."

Under the Investigation Technique, golden auspicious light appeared around Senior Sister, and Shen Qing seemed to hear a phoenix cry in his ear.

After reading Ye Shutong's panel, Shen Qing secretly clicked his tongue.

He remembered that Senior Sister had only broken through to the Feathered Ascension Realm about a year ago. To break through seven heavens in a year, wouldn't she directly transcend the tribulation and become an immortal in a few more years?

One must know that cultivators in the Feathered Ascension Realm already had semi-immortalized primordial spirits, and to a certain extent, could use Immortal Radiance. Each breakthrough of a heaven was incredibly difficult.

Transcending Tribulation, Feathered Ascension, and Dao Seeking were also known as the Three Saint Realms.

In the Transcending Tribulation Realm, the physical body was semi-immortalized; in the Feathered Ascension Realm, the primordial spirit was semi-immortalized. Senior Sister, at the Seventh Heaven of Feathered Ascension, could truly be called a semi-immortal.

Sitting opposite Ye Shutong, Shen Qing communicated with the system, "System, will Senior Sister also target me without reason?"

Although he had the destiny of a Destined Great Villain, he didn't want to harm those around him.

"No."

"Why?"

"Ye Shutong has already refined most of her destiny and will not be affected. Additionally, destiny only affects the protagonist to a certain extent, and the Villain Halo can encompass it in reverse."

"However, specific situations require specific analysis. Please do not think of trying to win over every protagonist you encounter."

Shen Qing didn't pay much attention to the system's reminder.

He understood the principle. His Senior Sister, as a protagonist and Son of Destiny, was already at the Seventh Heaven of Feathered Ascension Realm. It was hard to guarantee that he wouldn't encounter stronger protagonists who were hostile towards him in the future.

To protect himself, he still needed to quickly improve his realm, which couldn't be done without the system's help.

Currently, besides Senior Sister, the only protagonist he had encountered was Ye Chen. He couldn't enrich his personal treasury without Ye Chen.

Also, how did this 'Villain Halo can encompass destiny in reverse' sound so much like... 'evil corruption'?

Ahem!

Just imagining things, he was a good person.

Shen Qing asked, "Senior Sister, do you know Azure Sun Pill Emperor?"

Ye Shutong looked up, her calm eyes meeting Shen Qing's: "I've heard of him."

"A Dao Seeking Realm pill cultivator who had a unique pill that could greatly increase a cultivator's chance of transcending tribulation and becoming an immortal."

After waiting for three seconds, Shen Qing realized that Senior Sister didn't seem to intend to continue speaking.

It seemed that for her, this Azure Sun Pill Emperor only had this one thing worth mentioning.

"That Ye Chen, I suspect he's no longer the original Ye Chen. His body has been taken over by a powerful remnant soul."

Shen Qing wasn't worried that revealing this would lead to Senior Sister questioning him. Ye Shutong was always too lazy to ask about things she wasn't interested in.

She also didn't care about such small secrets.

Shen Qing used to find it strange, but now he understood. She was a reincarnated big shot; she didn't care about these petty squabbles.

He just didn't know if Senior Sister currently had her past life memories. If she did, did she have them from the moment of reincarnation, or did she recover them later?

Ye Shutong glanced at Shen Qing from the corner of her eye:

"About thirty years ago, Azure Sun Pill Emperor died under the immortal ascension heavenly tribulation. Later, a woman took his legacy and ascended to immortality fifteen years ago."

She wasn't interested in these things, only occasionally paying attention to matters of the Immortal Dao Realm.

Shen Qing: "Senior Sister, I now suspect that the one occupying Ye Chen's body is Azure Sun Pill Emperor. He's in the Dao Seeking Realm; what if he kills me?"

Ye Shutong pursed her lips, and an item floated out of her storage ring, landing in Shen Qing's hand.

Ye Shutong: "Soul-Slaying Jade."

Holding this item, Shen Qing felt a sense of "disgust"; his divine soul was resisting it.

Clearly, this was a treasure for dealing with divine souls.

Putting the item away, Shen Qing quickly slipped behind Ye Shutong, helping her massage her shoulders and fawning, "Senior Sister, I love you to death!"

My Feathered Ascension Realm pillar of support.

I must hold on tight!
