Chapter 226 Sister, Let Me Help You
Chapter 226 Sister, Let Me Help You
Fortunately, the system reminded her in time and she regained some of her sanity.
Seeing that everyone was displeased with her, she quickly lowered her head, pretending to be weak and innocent, and choked up and repeatedly said sorry to Jiang Liqian.
"Sister Fairy, I escaped from a place where people are eaten. I've been wandering around since I was little, without any family to accompany me or any parents to teach me. So, I'm not very knowledgeable and don't understand these things. I only see that when other people put their hands on something, they all glow, but I don't. I... I don't want to go back and live a life of picking up rotten leaves everywhere, neither human nor ghost. I said those harsh words in a moment of impatience..."
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, Sister Fairy, please be magnanimous and don't argue with me. How about...how about you give me a beating to vent your anger? I'm willing to atone for what I said just now. I was just too scared!"
A few crystal tears dripped from the corners of her eyes, and coupled with her already beautiful face, she immediately attracted many people's sighs and sympathy.
Most of the disciples of Qiankun Sect were kind-hearted. After hearing what she said, they could no longer be aggressive towards a helpless little girl. In addition, Shen Qingqing kept apologizing to her and even showed signs of kneeling down.
Everyone was even more moved.
If word gets out that she knelt down, people will really accuse the Qiankun Sect of bullying others by abusing its power. Then it will be her who will bring shame to the sect's reputation, and that she is narrow-minded and bullying a poor little girl.
Shen Qingqing pretended to wipe her tears while feeling secretly proud of herself.
The system's reminder was indeed correct. There were many stupid and foolish people in the famous and upright sects. If I pretended to be weak and talked about my miserable life experience, I would arouse their sympathy and naturally be able to turn the unfavorable situation around.
As for the eldest senior sister... the system was right. She had not yet become a disciple of the Qiankun Sect's Immortal Venerable, and did not have the ability to break off relations with her. It would be better to ease the relationship first, just like in the previous life, first hook up with her, be valued by the Immortal Venerable, and then make full use of her, take her spirit stones and resources, and then get rid of this annoying female supporting role.
Only when the time comes to give the fallen dog a good beating will she feel truly relieved.
However, to her surprise, the eldest senior sister, who was extremely kind-hearted in her previous life and was friendly to everyone, even stopping to give money and steamed buns to a beggar on the roadside, looked at her indifferently this time, with an extremely cold expression on her face.
The way he looked at her was like he was looking at a dirty piece of trash.
Her face suddenly turned pale and blue, but she had to maintain a pitiful and delicate appearance and could not explode.
"Little sister." Jiang Liqian placed another spirit-testing stone on the table. "I pity you. You insulted my sect and slandered my character. As for those harsh words you said to me, I can pretend I didn't hear them. I'll test your spirit roots again. If there's still no response, you'll be sent down the mountain. I can do nothing about it."
As soon as she said this, the anger that had just been extinguished by pity was ignited again. Although everyone stopped mocking her, they no longer gave Shen Qingqing a good look.
Shen Qingqing was so angry that she cursed the system in her mind.
What's wrong with this bitch? This trick should work every time. Shouldn't she be completely obedient to me, showing sympathy and guilt, and then actively offering to help me? That way, I can take the opportunity to express my desire to become the Immortal Venerable's disciple. Since she's the Immortal Venerable's first disciple, she'll definitely be able to help me, and I won't have to put in any effort!
[This damn bitch, how come she's acting differently than I thought? Didn't I just escape that den of wolves early to become her disciple? Instead of being treated like a pile of mud and being treated like a disgusting charity by her, and only being willing to take me back to the sect after begging and pleading? How did she change so much? Is this the butterfly effect?]
The mechanical voice of the system sounded in her mind without a ripple.
[The system cannot detect the meaning of the host's words. Please complete the task as soon as possible, enter the Qiankun Sect, and worship the Immortal Qingzhi as your master.]
Shen Qingqing was very annoyed that she couldn't control Jiang Liqian like she did in her previous life. This broken system was still there, urging her all the time, but it was completely useless. It was such a waste!
Forget it, her own spiritual roots are also very rare. She just doesn't believe that she can't be noticed by the Immortal Lord by herself?
Shen Qingqing made up her mind, took a step forward, and placed her hand on the spirit stone again.
Just like the previous one, there was no light in the spirit stone.
The onlookers sighed and felt sorry for Shen Qingqing. However, Shen Qingqing stared at Jiang Liqian and asked indirectly, "Fairy sister, I... I definitely have spiritual roots. Could it be..."
Jiang Liqian interrupted her: "Are you going to say again that I deliberately broke the spirit stone to target you?"
Shen Qingqing didn't dare to offend anyone at this time, so she quickly waved her hands and explained: "No, no, I just want to say that there are some special spiritual roots that can't be detected by the spirit stone. I... I can't be driven down the mountain. Please, Fairy Sister, please, use another method to help me test..."
The coldness in Jiang Liqian's eyes overflowed in an instant and flowed to the five fingers of her right hand. She could hardly control herself and wanted to strangle the neck of the "little junior sister" in front of her who was still preparing to use her, watching her struggle painfully in her hands, and then slowly suffocate to death.
Thick bloodshot flashed across her eyes, and a clear voice suddenly brought her back to her senses.
"Senior Sister, let me help you."
As soon as he finished speaking, a bony hand placed a round white bead in front of the spirit stone.
Xu Youan smiled warmly, but there was no warmth in his eyes: "This is a spirit-testing bead. It can detect any rare spirit root. Whatever spirit root you want, go get it yourself."
When Shen Qingqing suddenly saw the person who terrified her the most in her previous life, she was so frightened that she lost all expression. She just smiled stiffly and quickly put her hand on the spirit-testing bead, not daring to look at the other person for even a second.
Xu Youan looked at the person who was moving in a panic and narrowed his eyes slightly.
The next second, Shen Qingqing screamed, quickly retracted her hand from the spirit-testing bead, and her face turned pale.
Xu Youan looked at her calmly, his expression cold and unmoved: "What, something unexpected?"
Shen Qingqing's face was twisted in pain, and she pointed at the spirit bead and said, "There are thorns on it!"
"My hands are bleeding!"
Jiang Liqian crossed her arms and no longer had the patience to waste time with this so-called "female protagonist". There were so many people behind her, why should they all be delayed by her?
"Is there blood on your hands? Look carefully!" she scolded coldly.
Shen Qingqing was startled and turned to look at her hands.
It is white and clean, as if it has been carefully cared for.
There wasn't even a trace of blood on it.
But, but just now...
She suddenly met Xu Youan's cold gaze, her body trembled, and she couldn't say any words of defense.
