Chapter 3 : Is This Heroine Reborn?
The Five Mountains of Taihua is covered with snow all year round. Even in the scorching heat of June, one can see the snow-capped peaks and towering ice mountains. However, the middle of the mountain flourishes with vibrant flowers and lush vegetation due to the rich spiritual Qi, showcasing the beauty of all four seasons in one place.
The Taihua Grand Hall is situated midway up the mountain, while the elders reside in various peaks across the mountain. Each peak serves as a node for the formation that seals numerous demons, and the residing elders have the duty to guard these formations.
As Daoist Qin Zhenren had mentioned, Elder Qingyan had few disciples, including his daughter with his Dao companion, Daoist Qingshuang, and only three others. With Ye Xuan, the count has now increased to four.
On Qingyan Peak, two disciples dressed in Taihua robes are practicing their profound techniques. In a different area, a fourteen-year-old girl in Daoist attire is sitting in a spirit gathering formation, deeply immersed in meditation. Around her, wisps of subtle sword Qi coil and transform into miniature swords, soaring upwards and merging into a Taihua formation above her head.
Normally, cultivation demands inner peace. However, at this moment, the girl’s mind is besieged by a series of images portraying her future experiences. These visions fill her with immense pain, as if her heart is being torn apart.
Abruptly, she opens her eyes, gazing at her hands with a mix of confusion and realization. “I… have I been reborn?” she wonders in astonishment.
After confirming her situation, her disbelief turns into overwhelming joy. “Thank goodness, I’ve really been reborn… Father, mother, elder brother… you’re all still here, that’s wonderful!” Overcome with emotion, tears well up in her eyes. But soon, her gaze hardens with unyielding hatred.
“Yu Xuan, in this life, I won’t let you harm anyone ever again, I swear it!” Her eyes, filled with the intent to kill, can hardly be concealed.
In her previous life, if she had known sooner the kind of vile character Yu Xuan was, none of those tragedies would have occurred.
“My father won’t die, nor will my mother, elder brother, or second elder brother. Qin elder brother won’t die either…!!!”
“All the tragedies were caused by the scourge named Yu Xuan. If I kill Yu Xuan early, none of it will happen again. This time, I will no longer be soft-hearted like in my previous life.”
She vividly remembered that today was the day Yu Xuan joined the sect. “How can I kill that demon Yu Xuan without anyone noticing?”
Pondering this, she furrowed her brows. Though she knew everything about the future, her parents and brothers were unaware of it. If she tried to kill Yu Xuan, they would surely stop her. Even if she explained, they wouldn’t believe her.
“Junior Sister, what’s wrong?!”
Just then, her eldest brother, Yu Hao, who was practicing nearby, noticed her distress and hurried over. Yu Hao was deeply concerned about his junior sister, Yu Ling’er, the daughter of their master. Not only was she extremely beautiful, but she was also an exceptional talent, a rare prodigy even in the entire world of cultivation. Daoist Qin Zhenren often praised Yu Ling’er.
Yu Ling’er had always been carefree and never suffered any grievances. If their master saw her in tears, he might misunderstand and think they had bullied her. That would be a disaster.
The second brother, Yu Yu, also approached, casting a worried glance at Yu Ling’er. “Did you encounter some trouble in your cultivation? Are you feeling unwell?”
“No,” Yu Ling’er shook her head slightly, managing a pure and innocent smile. “Thank you for your concern, brothers. I was just… Ah, look, father is back.”
Hearing this, Yu Hao and Yu Yu turned to look at the sky. They saw a red light breaking through the clouds, arriving in an instant. The red sword light dissipated, revealing two figures: a middle-aged man with a fairly handsome face and a young man with an extraordinary appearance. It was Elder Qingyan and his newly accepted disciple, the great antagonist, Ye Xuan, returning from the Grand Hall of Taihua to Qingyan Peak.
“Master.” Eldest brother Yu Hao and second brother Yu Yu promptly greeted Elder Qingyan with a bow.
However, Yu Ling’er, brimming with vivacity, ran towards Qingyan, happily exclaiming, “Dad, you’re back.”
It’s great, Dad, you’re still alive, and I get to see you again.
She suppressed the surge of emotions threatening to spill over, holding back her tears, and pretended to be her usual childish self. This lifetime, I won’t let this scoundrel harm you at all…!!!
Thinking this, Yu Ling’er cast a glance at Ye Xuan. He’s the one who caused me to lose my father, mother, elder brothers, and everything. I won’t let him live a moment longer…!!!
As Yu Ling’er’s gaze fell on him, Ye Xuan was also observing her. It’s undeniable, she’s truly beautiful, different from Daoist Qin Zhenren’s ethereal and aloof beauty. She possesses the innocent charm of a young girl yet to blossom fully.
She’s beautiful indeed, but the great antagonist’s insane love for her must stem from more than just her looks. After all, he did so many crazy things for her. Those actions, after he succeeded in cultivating demonic arts, were utterly unnecessary. Are beautiful women so rare for cultivators to find?
According to the novel, in their first encounter, Yu Ling’er observed this new disciple her father brought back with curious eyes. Her beauty and innocence instantly captivated Yu Xuan.
Such innocent eyes… Nonsense!
Why does she look at me with such disdain and hatred?!! We just met for the first time; I haven’t wronged her, have I?!! According to the novel, Yu Ling’er is kind-hearted and always shows goodwill to strangers. You call this look goodwill?!! It feels like she wouldn’t hesitate to kill me if she had the chance. Wait—!!!
Ye Xuan suddenly realized something crucial. If I’ve indeed transmigrated into the villain’s role, at what point in time have I arrived? Is it before or after the heroine’s rebirth? If this is after her rebirth, the second loop… Doesn’t that mean she already sees me as the enemy who destroyed all her happiness?!!
Ah this… Dangerous—!!
