[Struck by an NPC’s Fate, But Can’t Go AFK] Chuhui’s cultivation was so high, yet she failed the selection. Someone must’ve meddled with the process. Please calm your anger, Madam. Among those chosen, is a disciple named Yu Rongrong. Her skills are passable. If she and the chosen others can steal the Bloodseal Bloom, it will grant Moon Palace millennia of cultivation. Why worry? Congratulations, Master. Anxue and Tan Muying made the cut, just as we planned. Never thought that slave-born Ye Ruling would also be selected. Though not as good as Anxue, she’s the most gifted among the captives from the Demon Realm. She’ll be our second bargaining chip. Mu Nisheng is exceptionally talented. She’ll surely fulfill your task. As expected of your sisters, Misses Xiyue and Wanqing made it in. Once they bear Sima’s children, we’ll have the Spirit Fire in our own hands. Then all we need to do is kill Sima Jiao and take his place as master of the Gengchen Celestial Palace. Anyone here? Nice spot. Not too high, far from Central Tower. No colleagues dropping by. I’ll lay down a thick quilt here for my own luxury suite. [Stargazing Terrace, Three Saints Mountain]
Plenty of sunshine too. Much better than the place I used to rent. This Qiankun Pouch may be low-grade, but it’s more than enough for daily supplies. Remember: Don’t make enemies in Three Saints Mountain. Just mind your own business and never stick your neck out. Oh, Master… This isn’t about showing off. I almost had my own funeral! Wow, you can really hold a lot! Such a tiny Qiankun Pouch, yet it holds so much! I should’ve packed all my belongings. Here’s someone even bolder. Surviving the big bad Grandmaster’s wrath, I’m truly blessed. The one you went to all that trouble to send is weaker than average and nothing special. Still no news after all this time. All you need to know is, [Mingli, Demon Realm’s Preceptor]
she’s the only one who can kill Sima Jiao. If you have time to test me here, better spend it thinking how to use the Bone-Eroding Venom in her to fulfill our pact sooner. Didn’t think I’d finally get it here, my long-awaited vacation! She’s actually sleeping. Is Gengchen Celestial Palace sending her to provoke me on purpose, or are they really this useless, not even realizing she’s a Demon Realm spy? I’m innocent, Grandmaster… Stupid snake. Why would I get a headache over a mere Demon Realm woman? It’s clearly the Spirit Fire in me acting up. I want to see what she’s really after. How can she sleep so soundly? Smelly. Let’s go. Why didn’t my alarm ring? These flowers are odd. They even glow at night. Isn’t that the girl Grandmaster blasted away the other day? [Lantern Pavilion, Gengchen Celestial Palace] Oh no! Yu Rongrong’s life flame has gone out! Return! Luckily, her soul hasn’t scattered yet. Madam. I told you to be careful in all things. How did you die so soon? I died? I saw so many flowers at Grandmaster’s place. I just wanted to pick one, and then I ended up here. Could it be the Moonshade Bloom? Madam Yue, fortunately, our disciples each get one chance at rebirth. You’d best prepare and send her on her way. Two life lamps out in a single day. Grandmaster is still as ruthless as ever. He must still hold old grudges and will vent them on the disciples. You think he cares about them? He still remembers old scores with the Eight Palaces! Back then, our fathers… I feel awful! I feel awful! Grandmaster! I feel awful! – Grandmaster! – I feel awful… Grandmaster. Take this fire out of me. Bear it, Grandmaster. Let the blood out and it’ll ease. The Eight Palaces once drank his blood, then locked him in Three Saints Mountain for 500 years. His hatred only grows by the day. If he shows no mercy to them, imagine if he faces us directly, he’ll be even more ruthless. Master Yin is right. He means we should strike first. This… With Spirit Fire in him, his power far exceeds ours. If we provoke him now, we’ll only die a miserable death. Though he’s forged a Spirit Fire avatar, the mountain’s seal still holds. I urge you all not to act rashly. Why do you think these disciples came? They’re just following orders from those old fools in Gengchen Celestial Palace, here to take my blood and my life. They don’t dare come here. Yet that one strolls right in and relaxes in my place. Grandmaster… Wait… Grandmaster… You’re watching me. No. I’m just cross-eyed. I was looking… I was looking over there! Tell me, what are you really here for? To fix my schedule and relax. In short, vacation. What’s going on? Why did my words change? That guy’s behind this! This fantasy world even has a spell that forces you to tell the truth! You don’t want to kill me? No. Why not? I’m just an innocent slacker. With cultivation this low, why would I want to kill you? Really? What else? Are you scared of everything or what? Is your brain broken? I’m doomed. This spell is deadly. Help! Are you killing me or not? Make it quick! I wouldn’t dare. Has he been in seclusion so long that his mind’s gone? Gengchen Celestial Palace had it wrong from the start. Why send in disciples to serve him? They should’ve sent a doctor to fix his head. Get off. Don’t lick me, you mangy mutt. Mr. Snake, look at my scrawny arms and legs. Spare me, will you? I’d only get stuck in your teeth! You want to drink this? You should’ve said so. Here you go. Sorry about that. I wasn’t thinking. Actually, this is a specialty of our Serene Vale. This Spirit Bamboo keeps producing Spirit Dew. I usually drink it like milk tea. Didn’t think you’d like it too. Why’s this snake acting like a dog? To raise a giant serpent into a loyal hound… Grandmaster truly lives up to his name. Looks like I’ve bought myself another day? I feel awful! I feel awful! I feel awful! You dare drink something from the Demon Realm? Tired of living, are you? Just because you ate with her twice, you’re speaking up for her now? All men are greedy, let alone those from the Demon Realm. They either want the Spirit Fire or covet the Bloodseal Bloom. She’s just better at pretending than the rest. Aunt-Master Nisheng, Yu Rongrong from Moon Palace vanished last night. Not even a body was found. And once you enter this mountain, you can’t leave. [Xiao Jincheng, Disciple of Heaven Palace]
No way back to the palace now… No one can guess Grandmaster’s temper. Don’t panic yet. No matter what, staying alive is what matters. If one of us can win Grandmaster’s favor and become his consort, our Heaven Palace will rise to lead the Eight Palaces. Sima Jiao is just as the Master said, cruel and lawless. We must find his weakness and kill him as soon as possible. The Fengshan Spirit Fire has merged with Sima Jiao. [Tan Muying, Disciple of Yin Palace] If Sima Jiao dies, the Spirit Fire will go out too. Then all of Gengchen Celestial Palace will lose its spiritual energy. How will we cultivate? The Bloodseal Bloom is grown by the Spirit Fire feeding on Sima Jiao’s blood. Eat the Bloom and his blood, and we can still raise our power. Have you forgotten what the Master said? Back then, he offended Sima Jiao. If one day Sima Jiao decides to settle old scores, we’ll all die miserably. What cultivation’s left? So, you called me here just to discuss this impossible task? Ye Ruling, stop acting like it’s none of your business. Don’t forget your clansmen are still in the Master’s hands. I’ve prepared this for Mr. Snake. Hope he won’t wake me tonight so I can get a good night’s sleep. Why does this feel so familiar? Do cultivators get period cramps too? It hurts so much… Why’s it getting worse? Didn’t Mingli say this Companion Bell can trigger Liao Tingyan’s Bone-Eroding Venom? Why has she shown no reaction after hearing the call? Does she really think that by clinging to Sima Jiao, she can escape our control? Fine. Let’s see how long you can survive this Bone-Eroding Venom! Stupid snake, what did you bring back? She’s been poisoned by demonic venom. Why do you want to save her? Do you even know why she’s here? You brought her to me this cluelessly? Are you looking to die? This poison is just a demonic trick to control puppets. She actually fell asleep. The Demon Realm went to all that trouble, only to send someone like this? Looks like she’s smarter than those other fools. Instead of rushing to my face to die, she won over that stupid snake. Such deep scheming suits that face. Grandmaster… Why am I in your hall? Nice act. You dared use that stupid snake to bring you to my Central Tower? Maybe I passed out last night from the stomach pain. I guess Mr. Snake got worried and wanted you to save me. I didn’t mean to trouble you. My stomach doesn’t hurt anymore? You drank my blood. Of course it won’t hurt. I drank your blood? If you dare spit it out, I’ll kill you. Your blood even works as a painkiller? Not only eases pain, it boosts cultivation too. No one in this world doesn’t want it. Count me out. I’m not that interested. Looking at you now makes me want to finish you on the spot. No… I… I may dirty your hands… If it hurt that much, why didn’t you just kill me? Because no reason, no grudge. In this world, killing doesn’t need a grudge, much less a reason. Like right now, no grudge, no reason, I just want to kill you. And what can you do about it? Nothing. I can’t beat you anyway. You want me to kill you? Well, I won’t. From now on, you’ll serve me. Me? I’m leaving now. No grudge… no reason… so she won’t kill me? Everyone in Gengchen Celestial Palace is after my blood. If not for the fact that only I can feed the Spirit Fire, if not for the Spirit Fire nourishing the whole palace, if not for the fact they can’t defeat me, I’d have been torn apart long ago. The Demon Realm has always wanted to destroy this palace and extinguish the Spirit Fire. They should want to kill me. So why… doesn’t she want to? After such a nerve-racking day, I won’t sleep well tonight. Ridiculous. The Truth Spell never lies. If she truly has no intent to kill, perhaps I can use her. Five hundred years… the night of the new moon. Aunt-Master, [Central Tower, Three Saints Mountain]
we’ve waited here every day, but this door has never opened for us. Will Grandmaster really see us? Don’t tell me you’re as shallow as the others. If you’re afraid, then leave. No, Aunt-Master. I just don’t know how to face Grandmaster. The Master once said that before this Grandmaster, it’s impossible to hide anything. All we need is the most humble and devout posture, laying all our thoughts bare to him. As long as I keep trying, Grandmaster will be moved by me. Mr. Snake really meant well but made trouble. I haven’t even rested a few days, and it’s back to work. I’m here to pay respects to you. Please accept me, Grandmaster. She’s a brave one, volunteering to face that moody grandmaster. No wonder she can lead the group. Her mindset is really something. Wish I could trade places with her. You’re still alive? What’s wrong with you people? Everyone asks me the same thing. I’m not dying. I’m staying alive. If you want to stay alive, keep your distance from here. I’d love to. What’s with Grandmaster? He asks me to work here without even giving me a pass. How am I supposed to get in? Aunt-Master, she probably doesn’t know Grandmaster’s temper. Should we warn her? Why meddle? The only ones safe this close are you and me. She’ll probably die under this tower today. Grandmaster, I’m here for work! How… how is this possible? You just knock and it opens? How did she get in? What will Grandmaster have me do? What’s in that bag? These are just my everyday essentials. I took them out of my Qiankun Pouch. I’m not great with spiritual power. I can only take things out, not put them in. Drop your junk and follow me. Grandmaster, is that person outside dead? What do you think? Why kill her? Worse than obvious greed, I hate mindless puppets with no soul. Killing her didn’t even interest me. Then why? She was too noisy and got on my nerves. You kill over annoyance? This grandmaster’s crazy. I’m exhausted. This is worse than rush hour. You can’t go on? Grandmaster, may I ask why we are climbing this high? No reason. Looks like he’s just too bored and wants to work me to death. At least I was still human in my old job. Now in the cultivation world, I’m just the boss’s plaything. Start by cleaning this floor. I’ll admit, the view here is pretty nice. It’s just that Grandmaster’s mood swings spoil the work experience a bit. But after 500 years alone in this tower, it’s no wonder his mind’s twisted. Grandmaster, I’m working hard! I’m getting things done! Oh, Mr. Snake, it’s you. I thought the boss was here. You scared me. What’s this about? Are you taking me somewhere? Or has Grandmaster done something again? He dumped me here earlier without even telling me my work hours. Are you taking me straight to him? If he’s not sealed, he’ll wipe out the whole palace. The Spirit Fire has merged with him. All we need is to keep him alive to supply us with spiritual energy. Better add another seal on top of this one. Tie it into all his meridians so he can’t kill himself. No matter the pain, he can’t seek death. Grandmaster, spare me! I didn’t do anything. Your pet brought me here. Grandmaster, my spiritual power’s too weak. I can’t help you. Maybe I should clock out early? What on earth is going on? Grandmaster, are you running a fever?
