Miao Shengnan frowned, feeling somewhat dissatisfied, but in the end, she did not abandon Rain Master Luo in the desolate mountains. Instead, she brought her back to Emei Mountain. She placed Rain Master Luo in front of the Arched Eyebrows Sword Release Monument, a trial that every disciple must face upon entering the sect.
Rain Master Luo looked at the Sword Release Monument at the entrance of Emei Mountain, but she showed no surprise and was even unwilling to glance at it again. Miao Shengnan asked, "Don't you want to know why there are so many swords hanging on this stone tablet?"
Rain Master Luo shook her head.
Miao Shengnan pressed her for an explanation.
"I don't like swords," Rain Master Luo replied.
Miao Shengnan asked her why.
"My brother was killed by someone using a sword," Rain Master Luo said.
"If you learn to wield a sword, I have a set of unparalleled sword techniques in Emei. Once you master them, you can take revenge; no matter how formidable your enemies are, they will not be your match," Miao Shengnan encouraged.
Rain Master Luo nodded, glanced at the Sword Release Monument, and then followed Miao Shengnan through the mountain gate.
Through the harsh winters and scorching summers, there was always one figure present at the Emei Dojo. She had been practicing swordsmanship since she was ten years old, always the first to arrive at the dojo and the last to return to the Disciples' Quarters, never pausing for a moment.
From being mocked by her senior and junior sisters to silencing everyone with her prowess, culminating in the fear that filled their eyes when she knocked down the sect's master sister's sword with a single strike.
Rain Master Luo's swordsmanship became increasingly refined. Her status as the master sister within the sect was unshakeable as she broke through into A Ray of Hope to practice the One Sword Technique.
To everyone, she was the master sister—a machine, a stern woman of strength, an older sister who would protect others, and a pride of the Emei Sect.
No one could utter the words "survival of the fittest" in her presence.
On her journey to Kunlun, she saw a man with particularly clear eyes. For many years, whenever she found herself alone at night, dreaming of such eyes, she would wake up in shock.
The man's brows and eyes resembled those of someone whose features had gradually faded from her memory, yet they remained vivid in her mind. Before arriving at the Kunlun Secret Realm, she had discovered an illusion of the Endless Desert and deliberately led him there to create opportunities for them to be together.
When the man fell unconscious, she held him tightly and wept, wishing to save someone who bore a striking resemblance to her brother.
Little did she know that she was deeply captivated by this man, falling in love with him to the core of her being.
It was as if one could not predict when the spring breeze would warm the green shoots or when the peach blossoms would bloom.
In the battle at Mount Hua, Rain Master Luo gained fame by fighting as a disciple against the Five Great Sect Leaders. With a single sword strike, she killed Yang Long, the greatest prodigy of all time. Just before being thrown off the cliff, she declared to the world that if given three years, she would slay them as easily as slaughtering dogs.
When the Underworld Sect learned that Rain Master Luo had survived her fall, news of her status as the number one female warrior spread like wildfire. Those who saw her referred to her as Goddess among the older generation, while the younger ones called her Senior Sister Yu.
Whether it was prominent figures from various sects or their leaders, none dared to provoke her.
No one noticed the disappointment and confusion in her eyes. She had avenged herself and could obtain everything she desired through strength. Yet she did not know why she continued to live.
"Why can't I live for myself?" Rain Master Luo's eyes were red as tears streamed down her stubborn face.
She had once been a girl too; why was she born to protect others instead of being protected?
Why did she have to be strong, enduring even when it felt unbearable, living like a mere shell of a person?
The first time she saw that man and smiled at him, an inexplicable pang of sadness surged within her, stirring an impulse to cry. Especially with his seemingly casual words of comfort—neither flattering nor mocking—she felt something stir deep inside her.
Sometimes people are just strange; they endure great grievances without a word, yet when they hear comforting words, they break down in tears.
"Yo yo yo~" Song Qianqiu followed behind Rain Master Luo and said, "I never expected that the usually strong-willed Goddess Rain Master Luo would have moments of being unable to hold back her tears."
"Rain Master Luo, why do I feel like you're acting like a dog?" Song Qianqiu remarked, holding a folding fan as he walked up to Rain Master Luo.
Hearing her own heartbeat and breath, Rain Master Luo was exhausted and knelt on the ground, glancing back at Song Qianqiu.
"Don't worry, Senior Sister Yu," Song Qianqiu said. "After you die, I will definitely use endless Evil Power to pass on the highest inheritance of the Demon King's Scripture to you. At that time, you will become the first female war god of the Underworld, invincible and undefeated. I will make sure you personally take down Yang Hao and those despicable people around him."
Rain Master Luo spat and replied, "Song Qianqiu, anyone I want to kill won't escape. Next time we meet, I will make sure you wish you were dead."
Song Qianqiu wore a smug expression and waved his hand dismissively. "Still tough-talking even when death is imminent. Go on, keep running!"
Rain Master Luo smiled lightly, pressing her palm against the ground in front of her. A stone covered by fallen leaves revealed some mysterious runes, connected to another space.
Seven days ago, Guo Daozhen had found Rain Master Luo at night, warning her about a death tribulation and advising her not to join everyone in dealing with the Yin Soldiers. Although Rain Master Luo was confident she could defeat Guo Daozhen, she remained cautious and inscribed a spatial rune leading to Emei and A Ray of Hope near the Pond not far from Jiangnan Courtyard.
The runes lit up, emitting a white light from Rain Master Luo's body. She looked at Song Qianqiu's suddenly pale face as Song Qianqiu shouted at the White-Robed Old Scholar to freeze the void while thrusting his folding fan toward Rain Master Luo's back.
The fan passed through Rain Master Luo's body, causing Song Qianqiu to fall flat on his face.
Shock, daze, tremors, and anger all appeared simultaneously on Song Qianqiu's face.
"You scoundrel, Rain Master Luo! You wretched scoundrel!" Song Qianqiu roared, throwing his head back in a long howl before slapping the White-Robed Old Scholar across the face. He pointed at the Puppet behind him and shouted, "Useless! You're all useless!"
Thousands of miles away, Rain Master Luo appeared in Emei: A Ray of Hope. She fell from the void, covered in blood and bruises.
Rain Master Luo could hardly muster any strength. Gritting her teeth, she crawled onto the Cold Jade Bed, where she used to practice her swordsmanship. The faint Spirit Energy from the Cold Jade Bed seeped into her wounds, and her gaze grew dim as she slipped into unconsciousness. Tears fell from her eyes onto the Cold Jade Bed, turning into a wisp of warmth. In that fleeting moment, she called out a name.
At that time, Zhou Manman, Douding, and I had already traveled halfway. Hesitant due to my injuries still recovering and unable to exert too much Dao Qi, I refrained from using the Time Walk technique. I stopped in my tracks and turned back to look at a certain direction, my brow furrowed.
"What’s wrong?" Zhou Manman asked.
"I don’t know why, but I have an ominous feeling; my heart suddenly feels empty," I replied.
Zhou Manman said, "Since Douding received a warning from the future and we have distanced ourselves from Jiangnan Courtyard, there shouldn’t be any danger."
I pondered, "I was just thinking—if our actions are an attempt to escape fate and destiny is rewritten, will the fates of others change accordingly?"
Douding looked up at me and said, "Brother is worried about Sister Yu, right?"
I nodded with uncertainty. Although Rain Master Luo had mastered the One Sword Technique and now possessed Mahayana Realm cultivation, even if she could challenge the Supreme, Old Scholar wielding the Great Zhou Compass was already in an invincible position. Song Qianqiu also had the Great Wilderness Scripture and two Supremes guarding her.
Zhou Manman reassured me, "Senior Sister Yu is no ordinary person. No one can harm her; don’t worry."
Despite my concerns, I ultimately nodded and continued on with Zhou Manman toward Qingliang Mountain.
Days later, everyone returned to Jiangnan Courtyard. Looking at the ruins of the courtyard, their expressions changed drastically.
"Has someone discovered our residence?" Huzi exclaimed angrily as he saw the charred remains on the ground and dried bloodstains.
"Yang Hao!" Yunxi rushed into the room, only to find it empty, with traces of sword energy burning everywhere.
"What happened? With Senior Sister Yu and Zhou Guanyin protecting this place, and the barrier outside, the Yin Soldiers shouldn't have been able to discover it. How could we be attacked when everyone is gone?" Taihe Zhenren said.
Everyone had fought bravely alongside the military to stop the invasion of the Yin Soldier Army, sustaining various degrees of injuries.
In this battle, the military suffered heavy losses. Soldiers killed by the Yin Soldiers and members of the Daoist Sect would all turn into Corpse Demons. Even some Common People would become Corpse Demons, forcing everyone to kill them a second time.
In this battle, Taihe Zhenren and Huzi achieved great merit, leaving countless floating corpses in their wake.
The Righteousness Song was particularly effective against Yin Soldiers and Corpse Demons. The Blood River Map, having absorbed the nine Souls of the Golden Crow, also greatly countered the Yin Soldier Corpse Ghosts, leading to countless ancient spirits being slaughtered.
Guo Daozhen took out the Zhou Compass from his pocket and adjusted its scale. The Light Shadow reappeared, allowing everyone to witness Rain Master Luo's tragic battle.
Everyone clenched their fists, their eyes filled with grief and anger.
"Song Qianqiu, that bastard!" Huzi roared, throwing a punch that burst forth with blood light, penetrating several courtyard walls and causing ripples in the air.
