Fairy, don't let your golden finger chase after me!

Chapter 57: How did I, a blond villain, steal the female lead's spotlight?

"You...you're the traitor from the Dong family?"

After hearing Song Qiuyu's introduction, Feng Ling Shuang immediately exclaimed in surprise at Dong Mo.

Seeing this, Song Qiuyu quickly spoke up to stop her junior sister, saying earnestly, "Ling Shuang, don't talk nonsense. This Young Master Dong is probably being wronged."

"Young Master Dong, please tell us what exactly happened."

Song Qiuyu's gaze fell on Dong Mo, her eyes filled with genuine concern.

Feng Ling Shuang tilted her head and looked at Dong Mo curiously.

Feeling the concerned gazes from the two women, Dong Mo fell silent for a moment.

He then quickly considered his options, concealed his identity as a transmigrator and the existence of the system, and told the other party about his situation in fragments.

"In short, that's how it is..."

"The old ancestor of the Dong family is nearing the end of his life and needs a new body to prolong his life."

"And I, who was born with double pupils... was chosen by the Dong family patriarch as a backup body."

"So from the moment I was born, my destiny was already set: to become the ancestor's new body, allowing it to be reborn within me."

"But I was unwilling to let him possess me like this, so I seized the opportunity and escaped from the Dong family."

"And then, it turned out like this..."

"Everything the Dong family is doing now is to capture me again and offer me as a physical body to the ancestor."

When Dong Mo said these words, his gaze was frank and his tone was extremely sincere.

In fact, Dong Mo was not lying; the Dong family patriarch did indeed need his physical body to prolong his life.

After hearing Dong Mo's words, Song Qiuyu immediately showed a thoughtful expression.

Feng Ling Shuang flew into a rage and slammed her palm against the wall beside her, causing spiderweb-like cracks to appear in the thick blue brick wall.

"Hmph... Beast! Worse than an animal! He actually used his own descendants as spare bodies!" Feng Ling Shuang's voice was filled with rage: "This kind of scum dares to be a cultivator? It's utterly depraved! Worse than pigs and dogs!"

Feng Ling Shuang grew angrier as she spoke, her long silver hair flying wildly due to the intense fluctuations in her emotions and spiritual energy, and her azure eyes almost spitting fire.

"Our ancestor of the Ancient Holy Land once said, 'To cultivate truth and seek the Dao, one must first cultivate one's mind and character.' What kind of person would harm even their own flesh and blood!"

"Even with high cultivation, it's still a heretical path! Fellow Daoist Dong, you can rest assured, we're determined to handle this matter!"

Looking at Feng Ling Shuang's indignant expression, Dong Mo suddenly felt a complex mix of emotions.

Sigh... I can only say that Feng Ling Shuang, this simpleton, is still as righteous as she is in the game!

In the game's storyline, when the villain steals Dong Yueying's Supreme Bone, causing Dong Yueying to fall into misfortune,

Feng Ling Shuang intervened in time to save Dong Yueying, who was about to freeze and starve to death on the street. After hearing about Dong Yueying's tragic experience, she was determined to seek justice for her.

Feng Ling Shuang in the story is like this, and Feng Ling Shuang standing in front of Dong Mo now is still like this; Feng Aotian's sense of justice has never changed.

Song Qiuyu stood quietly to the side, watching Dong Mo. A hint of approval flashed in her clear eyes.

Although Song Qiuyu did not show her emotions as openly as her junior sister, her inner judgment was very firm.

My previous guess was indeed correct. A person with such a clear sword heart could never be a villain who murders his own kind and colludes with the demon race.

Dong Mo's words confirmed her intuition, which strengthened her resolve.

"Young Master Dong."

Song Qiuyu took out a jade talisman from her bosom and showed it to Dong Mo: "This is a special pass that I just obtained from City Lord Zhou of Heming Mountain City, thanks to our connection with the Ancient Holy Land."

"With this pass in hand, the guards at the city gate have no right to search our goods. You can come out of the city with us as long as you hide in our purchased supplies."

Although Song Qiuyu's timely words of help could indeed relieve Dong Mo's immediate crisis, Dong Mo remained rational after hearing her words and was not blinded by Song Qiuyu's good intentions.

"Fellow Daoist Song, there's an old saying: 'No one gets up early without a reason.'"

"Although it's well-known throughout the Great Wilderness that the disciples of the Ancient Holy Land are fond of chivalrous deeds, I don't think you would be so kind as to help me."

"Tell me... what do you want me to do?"

Dong Mo's words were very blunt, even somewhat offensive.

But Song Qiuyu was not angry at all; instead, she laughed.

"Young Master Dong, you are indeed a smart man. We will certainly not help you unconditionally."

"My condition is simple: after we leave the city, you will return to Central Continent with us and pay homage to the Ancient Holy Land."

"I will explain the situation to the elders of the sect and make you a disciple of our Ancient Sacred Land."

Song Qiuyu's conditions surprised Dong Mo. He had expected Song Qiuyu to propose some tricky conditions, but he never expected that she would ask him to join the Ancient Desolate Holy Land and become its disciple!

What Song Qiuyu proposed wasn't a condition at all; it was clearly a timely act of kindness!

Ever since he and Xiao Bai escaped from the Dong family, Dong Mo has been thinking about how to find a powerful enough protector to shield him and Xiao Bai and help him completely break free from the Dong family's control!

As the number one holy land in the world, the Ancient Desolate Holy Land has a profound foundation and great strength. Even the Dong family, the number one clan in the Western Wilderness, dares not provoke it easily.

If he could become a disciple of the Ancient Holy Land, even the Dong family would back down and give up their pursuit of him!

Even if the Dong family doesn't intend to give up, I can simply hide in the Desolate Ancient Holy Land and not come out until my strength grows to a level far exceeding that of the Dong family patriarch, or until I outlive the Dong family patriarch to death before emerging from seclusion!

Moreover, the Ancient Sacred Land is a top-tier sect in the Great Wilderness, a place that countless cultivators dream of joining.

The reason Dong Yueying agreed to let her family take her Supreme Bone and transplant it to Dong Mo was because her family had promised her that as long as she handed over the Supreme Bone, they would recommend her to go to the Desolate Ancient Holy Land to become a disciple.

Therefore, the conditions proposed by Song Qiuyu were less of a condition and more of a reward and a way to recruit Dong Mo.

"Okay! No problem!"

Dong Mo agreed almost without thinking, but then he quickly added something else.

"I can join the Ancient Holy Land, but after leaving the city, you need to take me to Yueming Town to pick up someone first, and then we can go to Zhongzhou together."

"Yue Ming Town? To pick someone up?" Song Qiuyu's smile suddenly turned mischievous. She deliberately dragged out her words, "Let me guess, is it your 'master'?"

"Young Master Dong is truly a man of great loyalty and righteousness. Rest assured, I agree to your condition."

Dong Mo's face flushed slightly, then he coughed and cupped his hands to Song Qiuyu.

"In that case, thank you very much, Fellow Daoist Song."

"Oh? You call me 'fellow Daoist'?"

Song Qiuyu blinked and said with a smile.

"You can call me 'fellow Daoist' now, and I won't argue with you. But what will you call me once we enter the Holy Land?"

Dong Mo suddenly realized: "Senior Sister Song...!"

Seeing that Dong Mo was so understanding, Song Qiuyu quickly turned to Feng Ling Shuang and smiled.

"Junior Sister Feng, did you see that? This kid's not stupid!"

Not to be outdone, Feng Ling Shuang leaned over and pointed at her own nose at Dong Mo.

"Hey! Dong Mo! Don't just keep calling her!"

"I'm your senior sister too! Don't forget, the matter of you ambushing me earlier isn't over yet! When we get to the Holy Land, we must have another fight, a fair and square fight!"

Dong Mo could only force a smile and reply, "Definitely! Definitely!"
