Chapter 229 She won't be alone anymore
The red ribbon floated into Xie Wanning's hand, warmly encircling it, seemingly comforting her.
Xie Wanning wiped away her tears and stood up. She walked resolutely towards the center of the mountaintop.
Looking down at the entire Yingxue Peak, she shouted, "Father, Mother, and Sister, I will definitely avenge you!"
Her abdomen was still cramping terribly. Xie Wanning gripped the red ribbon tightly, raised her hand high, and let the red ribbon flutter in the air.
My thoughts drifted away with the wind.
"Master, when will you take me to see Yingxue Peak? I want to see what my father's sect is like," Xie Wanning asked Lin Xuanjin curiously.
Lin Xuanjin sighed and said, "Wan Ning, it's not that I don't want to take you, it's just that Yingxue Sect no longer exists."
Xie Wanning didn't understand Lin Xuanjin's meaning, but seeing the despair in Lin Xuanjin's eyes, Xie Wanning sensibly shut her mouth.
She's not one to get to the bottom of things.
"Brother, the disciples of Qingyun Sect stole the spirit beast we hunted. I'm going to demand justice," Xie Wanning said angrily.
"Little sister, calm down. We can't afford to offend everyone. Those disciples of major sects have powerful backers, while we rogue cultivators can only rely on ourselves," Zhou Zhuocheng advised.
"But why don't we fight back when they bully us?" Xie Wanning asked, puzzled.
"It's better to avoid trouble. There are plenty of spirit beasts. We'll find new ones in other secret realms. Why provoke disciples of major sects? Little sister, if you're bitten by a dog, would you bite it back?"
"will not."
"Then just treat those disciples from the major sects like dogs. We adults are magnanimous and won't bother with them," Zhou Zhuocheng joked.
Xie Wanning said nothing more, nor did she seek revenge on the disciples of the Qingyun Sect. She focused her time on finding new spirit beasts, and consciously avoided people from major sects when she encountered them. After all, it's better to avoid trouble.
She is not a troublemaker.
"Disciple, why do you practice swordsmanship?" Yu Song asked seriously.
"Kill those who deserve to die." Xie Wanning thought of Yan Ze, who had thrown her into the Abyss of Ten Thousand Demons, and boundless hatred welled up in her heart.
"Wrong! You practice swordsmanship to protect the peace of the world, not to kill people," Yu Song shouted angrily.
This was the first time Xie Wanning had seen Yu Song so angry, and she felt a little guilty. But the hatred in her heart could not be erased.
Yu Song noticed Xie Wanning's restlessness, but didn't say anything.
However, for the next two years, Yu Song would always say, "Disciple, the purpose of cultivating immortality and practicing swordsmanship is to protect the peace of the world. If you insist on killing, your Dao heart will become unstable, and your inner demons will control you."
Including the time spent within the formation, Xie Wanning had been hearing Yu Song say these words for over sixty years.
Xie Wanning found it annoying, but did not stop Yu Song from speaking.
She is not someone who betrays her teacher.
She didn't know when it started, but Xie Wanning stopped caring about her past life. Compared to the painful memories of her past life, she wanted to enjoy the peaceful life she had now.
A harmonious alliance of independent cultivators, the cozy and comfortable Twilight Snow Sect, and thrilling exploration of secret realms. Xie Wanning felt that life was so short, why dwell on the grudges of the past? As long as she stayed away from the Qingyun Sect, she could have a completely new life.
Therefore, Xie Wanning did not approve of Xie Wanxun's obsession with revenge. However, she did not want to disobey her sister, so she followed her sister to find a way to take revenge.
However, what Xie Wanning didn't know was that Xie Wanxun was a part of her soul, and that part was Xie Wanning's hatred.
Therefore, Xie Wanxun was obsessed with revenge and with keeping Xie Wanning alive.
As she wished, Xie Wanning was not overwhelmed by hatred and found a completely new way of living.
However, now, looking at the Yingxue Sect buried by the wind and snow, Xie Wanning understood why Lin Xuanjin said that the Yingxue Sect no longer existed.
That's because the Yingxue Sect is located in this secret realm.
A secret realm can be formed by spiritual energy, or it can be formed by being enveloped by spiritual energy.
The Yingxue Sect was destroyed and wrapped up as a secret realm, placed in the Qingyun Sect like a trophy. Only Yan Ze could have done all this.
Xie Wanning no longer wanted to run away.
Yan Ze destroyed the entire Yingxue Sect and imprisoned her in the Qingyun Sect; Song Huai'an wanted the position of the Qingyun Sect's eldest disciple and tried to kill her; Jiang Ci even poisoned, cursed, and poisoned her, all to make her submit.
Ye Qianqian and Fusang, on the other hand, regarded her as an ant and trampled on her at will.
She is not a lamb to be slaughtered; she will eventually gather her strength and trample those people under her feet.
However, right now, what she needs most is to leave the secret realm.
Xie Wanning took out her communication token and found countless messages.
"Junior Sister Xie, where are you? How are you?"
"Junior Sister Xie, we can't find you. What do you need us to do?"
"Wan Ning, where are you?"
……
Many people are looking for her; this time, she won't be alone.
Xie Wanning replied to each one, with similar content.
"I am in the secret realm of Yingxue Sect."
Xie Wanning felt relieved. She looked down at the entire Yingxue Peak and thought of the prosperous Yingxue Sect she had seen in Lin Xuanjin's memory. She felt a little bitter.
Is the Yingxue Sect destined to decline?
Suddenly, the red ribbon in Xie Wanning's hand floated away, drifting towards the ruins.
Despite the excruciating pain, Xie Wanning stumbled along following the red ribbon.
Finally, upon arriving at the ruins, Xie Wanning recognized them as the Yingxue Palace.
However, the once grand and majestic palace has become a pitiful ruin.
The red ribbon lay scattered among the ruins, and Xie Wanning had no choice but to walk around the rubble to reach the spot where the red ribbon had been.
The moment the red ribbon was touched, crimson flames burned and melted the snow.
Xie Wanning suddenly understood. She bent down and kept digging through the snow, breaking apart the broken wood and chunks of stone. She finally saw what was hidden under the snow.
It is a wooden box.
Despite its dilapidated appearance, Xie Wanning brushed away the snow and opened the wooden box.
Inside were a pair of crimson and light blue jade pendants, a yellowed scroll, and a tattered piece of paper.
The crimson jade pendant carries the power of the phoenix, while the light blue jade pendant is extremely cold.
Xie Wanning opened the yellowed scroll, covering her mouth to try not to cry.
It was a portrait of her parents, with an empty space in the middle, seemingly reserved for someone. Xie Wanning knew that it was her spot.
Finally, she opened the paper, which read: "Wan Ning, we're sorry you had to bear all of this alone. Your parents really wanted to see you grow up and have a wonderful life, but we can't stay. We're so sorry. Wan Ning, you must be happy and grow up well. Although we're not by your side, we will always miss you. Remember, you are our deeply loved child."
The red ribbon, warmly wrapped in Xie Wanning's hand and burning with phoenix power, gave her the most genuine warmth. At this moment, even the snow in the secret realm seemed to relax, as if her parents were stroking her head and telling her the contents of the letter.
The phoenix perches on the parasol tree, carefree and at ease; as the wind and snow gather in the evening, it seeks to return home at dusk.
Xie Wanning put away the box and stood up.
The secret realm trembled slightly, but Xie Wanning did not turn around.
"You know? Xie Wanning."
