The Cultivation Method of Junior Sister is Unscientific

Zhao Wuji’s expression changed several times before settling into indifference. “The master-servant contract is already in place. What can be done now?”

“Master, it was only said that Senior Brother Gu would be at Yun Jin’s disposal, not that she could use him to harm others,” Ye Danxia hurriedly said. “Today, Yun Jin used Senior Brother Gu and nearly cost five Senior Brothers their lives. Many people witnessed this. Today she uses Senior Brother Gu for personal vengeance; who knows what she’ll do tomorrow. Master, if you reprimand Yun Jin’s behavior from the perspective of protecting other disciples, it would be entirely reasonable. No one could find fault with that.”

Zhao Wuji’s eyes flickered. “I’ll consider it.”

“Master,” Ye Danxia said softly, “Second Senior Brother must be suffering terribly, being used like this. I just feel sorry for his current situation.”

As she spoke, Ye Danxia’s eyes reddened slightly.

Watching her, Zhao Wuji felt somewhat moved.

That day when Ye Danxia unhesitatingly pushed all blame onto Gu Jinghong, he hadn’t shown any reaction, but deep down, he was somewhat displeased.

He didn’t want to invest all his efforts only to nurture an ungrateful wretch.

But seeing Danxia’s concern for Jinghong today, she did seem genuinely worried.

Thinking carefully, if she hadn’t named Jinghong that day, she would have been branded as evil on the spot, unable to escape that stigma for life. She was, after all, just a child. Her reaction out of extreme fear at the time shouldn’t be judged too harshly.

“Master, please, save Second Senior Brother,” Ye Danxia’s voice trembled. “With Second Senior Brother’s pride, if he had known Yun Jin would use him like this, he might have preferred death.”

While Ye Danxia spoke of saving Second Senior Brother, her words seemed to hint that letting Gu Jinghong die might be the best outcome.

“I understand. You may go now,” Zhao Wuji sighed.

Ye Danxia knew she couldn’t say more at this point. She gently wiped her tears and withdrew.

After leaving the hall, Ye Danxia lowered her gaze, concealing the coldness in her eyes.

That day, she had seen clearly: after she accused Gu Jinghong, his eyes held a hint of hatred when he looked at her.

Coincidentally, Yun Jin also hated her to the bone.

With these two together, she couldn’t believe they wouldn’t target her.

Moreover, if Gu Jinghong returned to the master’s side after three months, would he let her off with his resentment towards her?

The best solution now was for Gu Jinghong to die, never to return.

But she was still too weak to do much herself. Everything depended on the master.

She had said all she needed to today. Now, she had to work hard to demonstrate her excellence, making the master eliminate all threats to her for her sake.

Or perhaps she should let the master see for himself what a dangerous person Senior Brother Gu had become!

Only then would the master truly make up his mind.

Night fell.

Gu Jinghong received a voice talisman from Ye Danxia.

As the talisman burned, Ye Danxia’s gentle and worried voice emerged:

“Second Senior Brother, I heard you’ve been forced to do many things you dislike. Are you… alright?”

“I’ve been very worried about you these past few days. You haven’t contacted me. Are you upset with me?”

“That day, Yun Jin must have done something to make me appear evil. Second Senior Brother, I was just panicked then… If I had known this Yun Jin’s methods were so cruel, I would rather have died than speak your name.”

“Senior Brother, I’m so worried about you. I’m waiting outside Celestial Sword Peak now. Please, you must come see me.”

“Woof woof woof! (How dare you contact outsiders behind the master’s back! Speak, are you trying to be a traitor?)” The Iron-Eating Beast barked at him.

Gu Jinghong frowned, then headed straight for the door.

“Human, where are you going? Did this beast allow you to wander off?” The Iron-Eating Beast anxiously chased after him.

This wouldn’t do. It had to notify the master that this bad person might be about to betray her. The master should just kill him!

Just as the Iron-Eating Beast left, it saw Gu Jinghong knocking on Yun Jin’s door.

The beast followed.

Yun Jin opened the door, letting the man and beast enter.

Gu Jinghong directly reported Ye Danxia’s private meeting request.

Gungun nodded repeatedly, indicating this bad guy wasn’t lying this time.

Yun Jin listened carefully, looking at Gu Jinghong with an odd expression.

She couldn’t help saying, “Are you… reporting on Ye Danxia to me now?”

Well, well.

It wasn’t like this in her past life.

In her past life, Gu Jinghong was madly in love with Ye Danxia, obsessed with her, the number one devoted follower who would bang his head against a wall for her.

Although some changes had occurred in this life…

The change seemed too thorough.

Gu Jinghong didn’t understand the mockery in Yun Jin’s eyes. He just analyzed calmly, “Junior Sister Ye is thoroughly self-serving. Since she didn’t come to see me before, she shouldn’t come now. This sudden meeting request must be problematic.”

He didn’t know where Ye Danxia got the confidence to think he would obediently go meet her.

“You make a good point,” Yun Jin nodded. “But aren’t people in love usually brainless?”

“In love?” Gu Jinghong frowned.

“Aren’t you secretly in love with Ye Danxia?” Yun Jin asked directly.

Gu Jinghong was taken aback and said slowly, “Where did that come from? Junior Sister Ye and I have only known each other for a few days and barely interacted. How could there be a secret love?”

Now it was Yun Jin’s turn to be shocked.

The book had clearly stated:

Ye Danxia’s Senior Brothers all fell in love with her at first sight, loving her to their bones from the moment they met. For her, they would defy the whole world without hesitation.

Gu Jinghong was supposed to be the most fanatical among them.

But in this life…

Things seemed to have changed.

Come to think of it, other disciples in the sect didn’t seem to adore Ye Danxia nearly as much as in the book. Most even kept their distance from her.

To say this was entirely her own achievement, even Yun Jin found it hard to believe.

Because in the book, many people’s love for Ye Danxia went beyond reason. Wasn’t Ye Danxia the female lead of a book? Yun Jin understood this phenomenon as a peculiar halo. This halo usually existed around male and female leads, unconditionally influencing everyone around them.

But in this life…

Thinking carefully, Ye Danxia’s lead halo didn’t seem as strong as in her past life?

Or perhaps…

Her constant suppression of Ye Danxia had gradually weakened her halo?

The true reason was unknown, but Yun Jin didn’t mind continuing to suppress her until this so-called lead could no longer struggle.

So, Yun Jin looked at Gu Jinghong and smiled slightly, “Since she wants to see you, you should go.”

Gu Jinghong was momentarily stunned.
