   ## A Sibling Relationship Sparks a Father-Son Conflict: Childhood sweethearts for over a decade, the young master of the Lu family treated Sui Sui like a precious treasure, and she reciprocated with her own deep affection for him. He would adorn her hair with flowers and shield her from the rain, she would brew tea and dress him warmly; their daily moments of intimacy were the sweetest comfort in her heart—she considered it a simple expression of mutual love. Until rumors shattered their beautiful dream. On the day of their engagement, with the red candles lit, he publicly broke off the engagement, his gaze fixed on her gentle and virtuous half-sister, Xi Zhi! "Xi Zhi is gentle and virtuous, with deep sisterly affection, how could she possibly be interested in you?" Sui Sui's father slammed his fist on the table, his words dripping with tears, "If there was no romantic love, why didn't you break off the engagement sooner? You've destroyed more than just the marriage certificate; you've destroyed Sui Sui's entire life!" He remained silent as a mountain. All those gentle words and tender care were, in his eyes, merely the natural bond between siblings. This belated realization ultimately became a sharp blade piercing Sui Sui's heart. But a deeper shock was yet to come—this catastrophic breach of contract had been made without his father's consent! A long-standing misalignment, ostensibly based on sibling affection, finally culminated in a thunderous betrayal at their wedding. When the wills of father and son clashed violently, whose life was ultimately crushed? Could the old jade hairpin, a gift from him, still hold a place in Sui Sui's hand, piecing together the warmth of their past?

   [Ancient Style Suspense] A cup of tea grows cold, and she escapes the world by feigning death… As the tea smoke dissipates, murderous intent arrives! ** A vermilion window is half-closed, rain patters on new lotus leaves. Shen Qinghuan, the daughter of the Prime Minister, with her slender fingers, is carefully grinding this year's pre-rain Longjing tea. The tea smoke curls from the celadon cup, obscuring her lowered eyes, and also enveloping the seemingly endless brocade cage within the Marquis's mansion. The world envies her unparalleled nobility, unaware of the treacherous dangers lurking within this golden cage. A decree of marriage binds her to a vortex of power struggles; a single rumor can crush her into dust. "**Qinghuan, this is 'Return to Dust'**." A whispered conversation in the dark night, and a cool jade bottle quietly falls into her palm. The medicine inside, named "Return to Dust," can render a person lifeless, as if they have died suddenly. This was her only way out—to exchange a meticulously planned "death" for a "farewell" that vanished without a trace. The mournful hall was draped in white, filled with mournful music. Inside the coffin, she waited, holding her breath. As the white banners hung high at the mansion's gates, and the world lamented the tragic fate of a beautiful woman, no one knew that a slender figure had already silently disappeared into the boundless night of the capital. A successful escape from death? But when, in her humble abode, thinking everything was settled, she brewed a pot of coarse tea to savor this stolen "pure joy," a sudden knock sounded at the door! Outside, whose shadow was stretched long and distorted in the moonlight? The tea rippled slightly, reflecting not the gentle grace of a noblewoman, but… a sudden, chilling **murderous intent**. *The Tale of Pure Joy*: A game of chess that begins with death, a cup of tea turned cold, a shocking mystery surrounding a noblewoman's escape from death.

    "Continue enjoying this kind of life, instead of completing tasks in various small worlds? It doesn't seem to do me any good." The system seemed to have anticipated her question and immediately replied, "Of course it does! First, you can experience different lives, each world has different challenges and fun. Second, after completing tasks, you can earn points, which can be used to exchange for anything in the real world—wealth, beauty, health, or even extended lifespan. Most importantly..." It paused deliberately, lowering its voice, with a seductive tone, "In some small worlds, there are men even more extraordinary than in the real world. They might be a cold and abstinent emperor, a paranoid and insane minister, or an unruly demon lord... And you can play with their feelings to your heart's content, make them infatuated with you, and then leave gracefully. How about it, are you tempted?" Yangyang chuckled softly after hearing this, the red mole at the corner of her eye shimmering even more with her smile. "That sounds interesting." She tapped the table lightly with her fingertip, her gaze sweeping over the man frozen in front of her—he was kneeling on one knee, holding a diamond ring, his eyes filled with deep affection and expectation. "However, my current fiancé is a rising star in the business world, young and promising, and completely devoted to me. Can you guarantee the man in this small world will be more interesting than him?" The system confidently replied, "Absolutely satisfying! If you find the first world boring, you can terminate the cooperation at any time." Yangyang blinked, her long eyelashes fluttering like butterfly wings. "Alright, I'll give it a try." Her red lips curved slightly, "However, I have a condition." "What condition?" "I must decide how to complete the tasks in each world. I don't like being bound, and I especially dislike following a set routine." Her tone was gentle, yet carried an undeniable air of authority. The system hesitated for a moment, but quickly agreed, "No problem! As long as you can ultimately eliminate the female supporting character's resentment, you can choose the method." "Then—" Yangyang stood up, her skirt cascading down like flowing water. She glanced at her frozen fiancé and chuckled, "Let's go." "First world teleportation activated!" The system's voice rang with excitement. The next second, Yangyang's figure vanished from the restaurant, and time resumed its flow— The ring in the man's hand fell to the ground. He looked up blankly, only to find no one before him. "Yangyang…?" His voice trembled, as if he had lost the most precious treasure of his life. ****** (World One: The Substituted White Moonlight of the Cultivation World) When Yangyang opened her eyes again, she found herself standing atop a misty mountain peak, surrounded by rich spiritual energy, with cranes soaring in the distance. She looked down at herself, dressed in snow-white robes, the cuffs embroidered with delicate silver patterns, and a jade pendant at her waist engraved with the three characters "Qingxuan Sect." The system promptly announced: "Welcome to the cultivation world!" The original owner was the senior disciple of the Qingxuan Sect, possessing innate sword bones and profound cultivation, and was recognized as the most beautiful woman in the cultivation world. However, ten years ago, she 'perished' while saving her fellow disciples during a secret realm training. Ten years later, her junior brother—who is also the male protagonist of this world—found a mortal woman who resembled her, took her as his disciple, and doted on her. "The female supporting character's resentment stems from the fact that she didn't actually die, but was trapped in the secret realm, and only escaped after many hardships. But when she returned to her sect, she found that everyone used that substitute as her solace, and even... Her most cherished junior brother had fallen for the substitute." Yangyang raised an eyebrow with interest: "So, what is the female supporting character's wish?" "To reclaim everything that belongs to me, to ruin the substitute's reputation, and to make my junior brother regret his actions!" The system said passionately. Yangyang chuckled, a hint of interest flashing in her eyes. "That sounds very interesting." "But—" she twirled a strand of hair between her fingers, her tone languid, "it's so boring to ruin a substitute's reputation. If we're going to play, let's play something bigger." The system suddenly had a bad feeling: "You, what do you want to do?" Yangyang didn't answer, but looked at a figure approaching in the distance—a young disciple dressed in Qingxuan Sect robes, flying towards them on a sword. "Senior Sister! Is it really you?" The young man landed, his voice trembling with excitement, "The Sect Leader said he sensed your soul lamp rekindling, we couldn't believe it... You're really back!" Yangyang gazed at him, a layer of mist gradually rising in her eyes, as if a thousand emotions were surging within them, finally transforming into a gentle yet broken smile. "Yes, I'm back." Her voice was soft, yet it instantly brought tears to the boy's eyes. The system stared in disbelief at the scene; its host, who had been so nonchalant just moments before, was now perfectly portraying the bittersweet emotions of returning home after a long and arduous journey! Yangyang chuckled in her mind: "Little system, in this first world, I'll show you what it means to be loved by everyone, including that substitute." (To be continued)

    Okay, this is a very captivating opening! Full of suspense and tension. The story could develop like this, pushing it to its first minor climax: --- In a woodshed in the backyard of the brothel, Wan Hua Lou. "Waaah, I'm so scared, I want to go home!" "Father, Mother, where are you? Take me home quickly!" "I don't want to entertain guests, the people here are so scary, someone save me!" "..." Hearing the constant sobbing of the young girl beside her, Jin Feng felt a splitting headache, as if countless needles were piercing her temples simultaneously. She struggled to open her heavy eyelids, her vision blurry for a while before gradually clearing. Dim. Dilapidated. The stench of decay, mixed with the smell of cheap cosmetics and the heavy odor of sweat and the salty taste of tears, assaulted her nostrils. Before her was a cramped, suffocating room, the walls mottled, some firewood piled in the corner, but mostly people—a dozen or so women as young as herself. They huddled on the ground, dressed in rough, faded, and tattered long-sleeved shirts, their hands and feet tightly bound with coarse hemp rope. Their faces, which should have been radiant with youthful energy, were now filled only with panic, helplessness, and a deep-seated terror. Tears washed away the grime, leaving new streaks, and sobs rose and fell, merging into a desperate lament. "Where am I? Is this a period drama filming? The props team is so realistic..." Jin Feng's mind was a blur. She instinctively tried to rub her throbbing temples, but found her arms firmly bound behind her back, unable to move. The rough hemp rope dug into her flesh, causing a sharp pain. This pain felt so real, it couldn't be acting! Just as she was filled with doubt and confusion, a sudden, deafening boom went through her head, as if she had been struck by a heavy hammer! Countless fragmented images, unfamiliar emotions, and scattered information flooded her consciousness like a burst dam: * **Wan Hua Lou:** The most "famous" den of iniquity in Yangzhou, a haven of gentle pleasures but also a graveyard for heroes, a hell forged from the blood and tears of countless women. * **"Jin Feng":** A fifteen-year-old country girl with the same name as her. Orphaned, her only uncle, a gambling addict, sold her to a slave trader for a few taels of silver. * **Slave trader, black ship, dark cabin, whipping, thirst…** A long journey filled with humiliation and pain. * **Final destination:** Wan Hua Lou. They were newly "bought goods," awaiting "training" before being offered services. * **Madam Wang:** A smiling face masking a heart of serpent, she always carried a string of sandalwood prayer beads, chanting Amitabha, yet showing no mercy. * **Pimp Thugs:** Fierce and menacing, they are the iron whips and shackles maintaining order in this "hell." * **Other Girls:** Some were sold by their own families like her, some were abducted, and some had fallen on hard times due to family decline… Their fates differed, but their despair was the same. * **Transmigration! I actually transmigrated! And to the Qianlong era of the Qing Dynasty?! I've become a pitiful wretch sold into a brothel, about to be forced into prostitution?!** The overwhelming information shock made Jin Feng's vision blur, and her stomach churned. The memories of modern-day office worker Jin Feng and ancient prostitute Jin Feng collided and merged violently, giving her a splitting headache, almost causing her to faint again. Panic engulfed her like a cold tide. This wasn't a game; there were no retakes! This was real, hierarchical, ruthless ancient times! Especially for weak women like them, trapped and powerless to resist, the brothel was a living coffin! * **It's over…** The soul of modern-day Jin Feng wailed. She'd read countless transmigration novels; everyone else transmigrated into a princess or queen, or possessed a spatial spring, or at the very least, was a free person. But her? She started in hell, thrown straight into the deepest abyss! "What's all the noise about! Shut the hell out!" A harsh shout, accompanied by a heavy slamming of the door, abruptly interrupted the sobbing filling the room. The already rickety wooden door to the woodshed was kicked open, and a burly man with a menacing face, dressed in short, tight-fitting clothes, blocked the doorway. He held a gleaming leather whip, his eyes fiercely scanning the room like a butcher eyeing lambs for slaughter. Behind him were two equally menacing henchmen. The crying seemed to be strangled, instantly subsiding into suppressed, terrified sobs. The girls trembled with fear, desperately shrinking back, wishing they could embed themselves into the wall. The burly man's gaze, sharp as a knife, finally settled on the little girl who had been crying the loudest. He strode over, grabbed the girl by the hair, and lifted her up like a chick. "You little slut! Homesick already? Once you're in the brothel, this is your home! Madam Wang is kind; she gave you a meal, let you wear gold and silver—that's your good fortune! If you dare to whine and cry again, ruining the fun for the nobles..." He grinned maliciously, his rough fingers gripping the girl's slender neck tightly, watching her face flush red from suffocation. "I'll strip you naked and hang you in the courtyard, let everyone see the consequences of disobedience! It'll be easier if you die; there's plenty of room in the back alley's mass grave!" The girl's eyes rolled back, her legs kicked wildly, and a terrifying "hoarse" sound escaped her throat. The woodshed was deathly silent; all the girls were terrified, afraid to even breathe. Jin Feng's heart pounded wildly, almost bursting from her chest. She bit her lower lip tightly to keep from letting out a scream of terror. The violent aura and deathly threat emanating from the burly man were so real and terrifying that they shocked her soul, hailing from a society governed by the rule of law, like never before. Anger and a chilling coldness simultaneously welled up within her. Watching the girl struggle in agony, seeing the cruel smugness on the burly man's face, a powerful will to survive erupted like magma! "No! I can't die here! I can't be slaughtered like livestock!" The resilience of her modern soul and the intense desire for survival from her ancient memories merged, overwhelming her initial panic. She forced herself to calm down, her brain working at an unprecedented speed. Fight head-on? It would be like throwing an egg against a rock. Show weakness and beg for mercy? That would only embolden these wolves, making them even more ruthless. **Live! You must live! And then…find a way to escape!** Jin Feng quickly lowered her eyes, concealing the fleeting cold light and the frantically growing thought within them. She mimicked the other girls, her body trembling slightly, her head bowed even lower, as if terrified. But her fingers, under the cover of her body, began to subtly and tentatively twist and explore where they were bound behind her back. The rough texture of the hemp rope and the tightness of its constriction were clearly felt. "Only by living... Is there hope." She silently swore an oath in her heart, to herself and to the original owner of this body. In the woodshed of the Wan Hua Lou brothel in Yangzhou during the Qianlong era, a struggle concerning life and death and freedom had just begun.

    "Kissing You with the Wind" is a sweet campus romance novel centered on two academic high-achievers and their mutual unrequited love. It tells the sweet story of Jiang Wan and Gu Sinian, from their school uniform days to their wedding day. Here are the core settings and plot highlights: 1. Main Plot: First Encounter: In her second year of high school, Jiang Wan moves to S City with her parents and becomes Gu Sinian's neighbor. On her first outing, she bumps into him. On the day of the move, the Gu family (Gu Sinian's parents), old classmates of Jiang's parents, offer their help and reveal that the two had met as children. Academic High-Achievers: The two consistently rank first and second in their grade, their subtle displays of affection becoming a campus legend, known as the "Middle School Myth." Gu Sinian appears aloof, but in reality, he has an extreme fondness for Jiang Wan. 2. Romantic Development: Mutual Unrequited Love: In the early stages, the novel subtly hints at their attraction through academic competition and daily interactions, such as Gu Sinian tutoring Jiang Wan and carrying her in his arms when she faints. Highly sweet scenes: including sweet interactions at the ice rink, feeding each other candy on the swing seat, and feeding each other popcorn at the movie theater. Gu Sinian's classic line, "I will always, always love you," runs throughout the entire story. 3. Character Settings Jiang Wan: A sweet and sassy female academic genius with a beauty mark under her left eye; her personality is gentle on the outside but strong on the inside. She transfers to S City No. 1 High School due to her father's job transfer. Gu Sinian: A cold on the outside but warm on the inside male academic genius; he is indifferent to others but dotes on Jiang Wan. He is called "heartless" but his image reverses after publicly protecting his wife. 4. Other Highlights Family Connections: The Jiang and Gu families are old friends, and the parents intentionally bring them together, adding a childhood sweetheart atmosphere. Continuation to University: The later plot extends to the university stage, continuing to shower the readers with sweetness and showing their growth together. The novel's tags include [HE], [Both characters are virgins], and [From school uniform to wedding dress], suitable for readers who prefer fast-paced sweet romance.

    Okay, this is a suitable ancient-style pastoral romance novel, focusing on the "intimate" relationship between the female and male leads: --- **[Ancient-style Pastoral Romance Novel] "Crazy, Crazy, Crazy is Good" -- A heartless lover? Watch how a beautiful peasant girl "crazys" the world!** Mimi, a young lady from the Xie family, transmigrates into a book and becomes the "shadow" wife of the heartless lover Xiao Jingxi. Seven years of devoted love bring him success in the imperial examinations and fame in the opera world (ancient-style version with a movie star), while she remains a "country bumpkin" who cannot see the light of day. At her sickbed, Xiao Lang, dressed in fine clothes, his phoenix eyes icy, said, "Xie Mi, your delusions are delusional; you deserve this." Each word was like a knife, ripping away at the original owner's seven years of subservience—by day, she was his "tea-brewing maid" hidden in the bamboo grove courtyard, her delicate hands preparing the soup, her red sleeves adding fragrance; in public, she had no title, his single word "not familiar" pushing her into the abyss of public condemnation, causing her to be injured by a madman, her robes stained with blood. What a "not familiar"! Xie Mi laughed in fury. Since he was the one who had betrayed her first, she wouldn't blame her for shattering this false peace! He wanted to protect the reputation of the newly crowned "flower queen," Xu Shuangrong? She would turn their private past of "sharing a bed in the bamboo grove" and "painting eyebrows under the moon" into the sharpest arrows, piercing his hypocritical facade! He tolerated his followers humiliating her "dreams"? She would stand proudly before everyone, revealing the purse she had sewn herself, the one he had discarded like trash! From then on, the gentle tea-brewing girl would be gone from the fields and stoves. Xie Misu, wielding her "scythe," would sever the promising future of her unfaithful lover; her radiant smile would overturn the rigid, outdated rules that had ensnared her! Those powerful men who once avoided her like the plague now vied for her attention? She would simply lean against the bamboo fence, watching her lover's regret deepen—in this tumultuous life, she would forge a path of unparalleled success and be the most favored in the land!

    Okay, I will create the story "After Transmigrating into a Book, I Became the Darling of the Cultivation World" for you. This opening is very interesting, showcasing the dramatic scene of the protagonist transmigrating into a cultivation novel. Below is the world view and story development I have integrated based on the content you provided: ### World View Setting - **Cultivation System**: The world is divided into the mortal realm and the cultivation world, with cultivation talent determined by spiritual root aptitude. Sects hold annual disciple recruitment conferences to select talents, and those with outstanding aptitude can enter top sects. - **Sect Ranking**: The Seven Star Sect is the number one sect in the cultivation world, with an inner and outer sect system. Outer sect disciples are required to perform miscellaneous tasks and have scarce resources; inner sect disciples enjoy high-quality resources and guidance from renowned teachers. - **Special Setting**: The protagonist possesses the misunderstood aptitude of "all-attribute spiritual roots," which is actually a top-tier talent that requires special cultivation techniques to unleash. Later, he can cultivate multiple attribute spells. ### Story Synopsis - **Transmigration and Awakening**: Modern girl Ye Linglong transmigrates to the world of a cultivation novel, becoming a cannon fodder female supporting character. At the disciple-acceptance ceremony, she awakens her memories and faces the fate of being assigned to the worst sect. - **Struggle Against Fate**: Unwilling to repeat the original story's tale, Ye Linglong publicly reveals the true identity of her adopted daughter, Ye Rongyue, using family favors to coerce her into taking her to the Seven Star Sect. - **Sect Discrimination**: After entering the Seven Star Sect, Ye Linglong is demoted to an outer disciple, suffering from resource scarcity and bullying from her fellow disciples. However, she unexpectedly discovers that her "useless spiritual root" might be a special constitution. - **Adventure in a Mysterious Realm**: While on a dangerous mission, Ye Linglong falls into a mysterious valley and obtains the ancient inheritance, the *Hun Yuan Xin Jing*, beginning to cultivate her misunderstood all-attribute spiritual root. - **First Glimpse of Talent**: Having achieved minor success in her cultivation, Ye Linglong astonishes everyone in the outer sect competition, attracting the attention of the sect elders. Meanwhile, her conflict with Ye Rongyue gradually becomes public. **The Truth Revealed:** Ye Linglong discovers that Ye Rongyue actually knows the secret of her past and has been secretly suppressing those who might threaten her position. This section mainly describes Ye Linglong's journey after transmigrating to a cultivation world, awakening her memories at the disciple-acceptance ceremony, fighting back against unfair treatment, revealing Ye Rongyue's secret, and successfully entering the Seven Star Sect. --- "I refuse to accept this!" A shout that burst from her own mouth startled Ye Linglong. She looked around in confusion and found herself standing in the middle of a huge venue, the center of attention. Everyone stared at her in astonishment, waiting for her explanation. Ye Linglong herself was also bewildered until the next second, a flood of memories rushed into her mind, and she tragically realized that she had transmigrated into a book—into a cultivation novel she had just read a few days ago, becoming the cannon fodder female supporting character with the same name, Ye Linglong. In the original novel, the female protagonist, Ye Rongyue, is the adopted daughter of the Ye family. She possesses exceptional talent and a lucky fate from a young age, and the entire Ye family dotes on her. Meanwhile, Ye Linglong, the biological daughter of the Ye family, is mediocre in talent and arrogant, serving as the perfect foil to Ye Rongyue. "Ye Linglong, what do you mean by this?" On the high platform, an elderly man with a sage-like demeanor frowned and asked. Ye Linglong quickly processed the information in her mind. It was the once-in-a-decade disciple recruitment ceremony in the cultivation world. Ye Rongyue, with her exceptional talent of a single-elemental heavenly spiritual root, had amazed everyone and was sought after by all the sects. She, however, barely passed the qualifying score and could only be assigned to the worst sect. In the original novel, the original owner of this body caused a scene here, using the Ye family's kindness in raising her to force Ye Rongyue to take her to the best sect, the Seven Star Sect. After entering the sect, the original owner was relegated to an outer disciple, suffering greatly but learning nothing. Ultimately, out of jealousy of Ye Rongyue, she went down the evil path, ending up dead and dissipated. "I..." Ye Linglong took a deep breath, her gaze sweeping across the entire arena. Representatives from various sects sat on the high platform, with Elder Qingxuan of the Seven Star Sect at the very center. Beside him stood Ye Rongyue, who had already passed the test, dressed in white, her beauty ethereal and refined, looking at her with worried eyes. Worried? Ye Linglong sneered inwardly. In the original story, Ye Rongyue appeared gentle and kind, but was actually deeply scheming, pushing the original owner of this body step by step into the abyss. "I refuse to accept this test result!" Ye Linglong shouted, "My aptitude is far greater than this!" A murmur of surprise rippled through the crowd. The testing stone showed she only possessed three spiritual roots, which was considered below average aptitude in the cultivation world. "The testing stone doesn't make mistakes," Elder Qingxuan said calmly. "If you're not satisfied, you can take the test again." Ye Linglong stepped onto the testing platform and placed her hand on the crystal-clear testing stone. The stone glowed with red, blue, and yellow light, a faint light, typical of someone with only three spiritual roots. "See? Same result." Elder Qingxuan shook his head. "Your aptitude is indeed average." Ye Linglong bit her lower lip. She knew that in the original story, she was indeed of mediocre talent, but since she had transmigrated, she was determined not to repeat the same mistake. "Since that's the case..." Ye Linglong turned to Ye Rongyue, a resolute glint in her eyes. "Sister Rongyue, do you still remember that rainy night ten years ago?" Ye Rongyue's expression changed slightly: "Linglong, what are you talking about?" "I'm talking about the little girl covered in blood that Father rescued from the flash flood ten years ago." Ye Linglong raised her voice. "If it weren't for the Ye family taking you in, you would have already perished!" The entire room fell silent. This secret had never been made public before. "The Ye family raised you for ten years, giving you the best resources. Now that you've achieved great success, are you going to abandon your own sister?" Ye Linglong's eyes were filled with tears, her acting skills on full display. Ye Rongyue's face turned pale, her fingers trembling slightly. She hadn't expected Ye Linglong to reveal her secret in this situation. "I... Of course I won't abandon you," Ye Rongyue forced a smile. "Elder Qingxuan, could you allow my sister to join the Seven Star Sect as well?" Elder Qingxuan frowned. "Sect rules cannot be broken. Her aptitude isn't sufficient..." "If I can't take my sister with me, then I won't go to the Seven Star Sect either." Ye Rongyue suddenly knelt down. "The Ye family has been incredibly kind to me. I cannot forget their kindness." The entire audience erupted in uproar once more. A genius with a Heavenly Spiritual Root actually gave up the opportunity to enter the top sect for a sister with mediocre aptitude? Representatives from several other sects immediately became restless. If they could seize the opportunity to poach Ye Rongyue... Elder Qingxuan's expression shifted, and he finally sighed. "Fine, Ye Linglong can enter the Seven Star Sect as an outer disciple. But whether she can advance to the inner sect depends entirely on her own abilities." Ye Linglong was overjoyed. Her plan had succeeded! Although she was only an outer disciple, at least she had entered a top sect and had a chance to change her fate. "Thank you, Elder!" Ye Rongyue bowed gracefully, then turned to help Ye Linglong up, a cold glint flashing in her eyes as she whispered, "Are you satisfied?" Ye Linglong responded with a sweet smile, "Sister is the best to me." After the disciple-acceptance ceremony, the new disciples were taken away by their respective sects. On the Seven Star Sect's flying boat, Ye Rongyue was surrounded by admirers, while Ye Linglong stood alone in a corner. "You're the one who got in through connections?" A shrill voice rang out. Ye Linglong turned her head and saw a gorgeously dressed girl looking at her with disdain. "I got in because of my family's favor," Ye Linglong said frankly. "Unlike some people who entered the Seven Star Sect without even passing the test, your family's favor must be even greater, right?" The girl's face flushed red: "You! My cousin is an inner sect deacon!" "Oh, so it's because of your cousin." Ye Linglong said with a sudden realization, "Then I am truly sorry." A few soft laughs came from around them, and the girl stomped her foot and left in anger. The flying boat passed through the clouds, and the majestic Seven Star Mountain Range gradually came into view. Seven peaks pierced the sky like sharp swords, and amidst the swirling clouds, one could see jade palaces and cranes flying. "This is the Seven Star Sect..." Ye Linglong murmured to himself. The description of this place in the original work was captivating, but unfortunately, the original owner had never truly experienced its splendor. The flying boat landed on the main peak square. The new disciples were divided into different groups according to their aptitude. Outstanding disciples like Ye Rongyue were directly led to see their respective peak masters, while outer disciples like Ye Linglong were taken away by a stern-looking middle-aged cultivator. "I am Zhao Zhiping, the outer sect steward, responsible for managing you outer disciples," Steward Zhao said coldly. "The outer sect is different from the inner sect; the rules here are strict. You must get up at 3 AM every day, do two hours of menial tasks, and only then can you cultivate..." Hearing the long list of rules, Ye Linglong sighed inwardly. The outer disciples were indeed, as described in the original novel, cheap labor for the sect. When assigning accommodations, Ye Linglong was placed in a simple wooden hut in the far corner, containing only a hard bed and a small wooden table. She took out a few clothes from her bundle and suddenly touched a hard object. It was an ancient jade pendant, engraved with strange patterns. Ye Linglong frowned; she didn't remember the original owner having such an item. When her fingers touched the jade pendant's patterns, a strange heat suddenly surged into her body. A fragment of unfamiliar memory surfaced in her mind—a woman whose face was obscured handed a jade pendant to the young original owner: "Linglong, this is the only keepsake left by your biological mother. Remember to keep it safe..." Biological mother? Ye Linglong was shocked. The original story never mentioned that the original owner was not a biological child of the Ye family! Just as she was about to investigate further, there was a knock on the door. "Ye Linglong, Deacon Zhao wants you to report to the herb garden immediately!" An impatient voice shouted. Ye Linglong hurriedly hid the jade pendant and pushed open the door. An outer disciple was waiting outside. Seeing her come out, he sneered: "Those with connections are different. Special 'treatment' on the first day." The herb garden was located in the most remote valley of the Seven Star Sect. When Ye Linglong arrived, Deacon Zhao was talking to a middle-aged female cultivator with a face full of scars. "This is the newcomer?" The female cultivator sized Ye Linglong up and down. "So delicate and tender, can she do any hard work?" "Manager Liu, this is Ye Rongyue's younger sister," Deacon Zhao said meaningfully. A knowing glint flashed in Manager Liu's eyes: "Oh, that one... Alright, from now on you'll be in charge of the easternmost spirit field, weeding, watering, and fertilizing every day. If even one spirit herb has a problem, you'll lose half a month's worth of spirit stones." Ye Linglong was led to a spirit field overgrown with weeds, and Manager Liu tossed her a blunt hoe: "No food until you've cleared this field!" After everyone left, Ye Linglong looked at the half-acre spirit field and sighed. This was clearly a deliberate attempt to make things difficult for her. But she wasn't the original owner of this body; she wouldn't sit idly by. Ye Linglong squatted down and carefully examined the weeds. In her previous life, she was an agricultural university student and had considerable knowledge of plants. "This is... Fire Spirit Grass?" She was surprised to discover that these so-called "weeds" were actually a precious spiritual herb, but they were considered weeds because they were incompatible with the main plant, Ice Heart Lotus. The original story mentioned that the Seven Star Sect's herb garden had suffered heavy losses when a batch of Ice Heart Lotus died due to the accidental removal of Fire Spirit Grass... Ye Linglong's eyes lit up, and she had an idea. She deliberately slowed down her weeding, secretly transplanting several Fire Spirit Grass plants to a hidden spot. As dusk fell, Steward Liu came to inspect and, seeing that she had only removed a small portion, flew into a rage: "Useless! You won't be eating tonight! Keep working, and you're not allowed to go back until you finish!" Ye Linglong pretended to lower her head in grievance, but secretly she was delighted. The first step of her plan had succeeded. Late at night, she dragged her tired body back to her residence and took out a Fire Spirit Grass she had secretly brought back from her bosom. By the moonlight, she discovered that the roots of this spiritual herb were shimmering with a faint red light. "As expected..." Ye Linglong said softly, "This isn't weeds, it's clearly a treasure." She recalled the memory fragments in the jade pendant and touched the jade pendant hidden inside her clothes. It seems that this transmigrated world hides many secrets not mentioned in the original work... Early the next morning, Manager Liu's scream came from the herb garden: "Why are all the Ice Heart Lotus wilted?!" When everyone arrived, they saw that all the Ice Heart Lotus in that spiritual field had turned yellow and withered. Manager Liu's face turned ashen: "It's over! This batch of spiritual herbs was meant for the sect leader's alchemy..." Deacon Zhao's expression darkened: "Investigate! What exactly happened!" "I know the reason." Ye Linglong stepped forward, pointing to the removed "weeds" amidst everyone's astonished gazes. "These are Fire Spirit Grasses, which are mutually reinforcing and mutually restraining with Ice Heart Lotuses. After removing them all, the Ice Heart Lotuses lost their balance." "Nonsense!" Manager Liu snapped. "What knowledge do you have about spiritual herbs?" "I've loved studying spiritual herbs since I was a child." Ye Linglong remained composed. "If you don't believe me, you can ask the elders of the Pharmacy Hall to examine them." The matter quickly alarmed the Pharmacy Hall. After investigation, it was confirmed that Ye Linglong's words were true. Manager Liu was punished for dereliction of duty, while Ye Linglong was transferred to assist the Pharmacy Hall's work for her "keen eye for herbs." Before leaving, she secretly handed the hidden Fire Spirit Grasses to the Pharmacy Hall elder, earning his approving look. That evening, Ye Linglong was studying the herbal medicine manual provided by the medicine hall when there was another knock on the door. Opening it, she was surprised to see Ye Rongyue standing outside, her white dress making her look like a fairy in the moonlight. "Sister? What are you doing here..." "Linglong," Ye Rongyue smiled gently, but her eyes were cold. "I heard you made a big splash in the herb garden today?" --- **The story may unfold around the following clues:** - **Mysterious Jade Pendant:** The fragments of memory about her "biological mother" within the jade pendant hint at Ye Linglong's extraordinary background, related to the later revelation of the secret of "all-attribute spiritual roots." - **Knowledge of Fire Spirit Grass:** Ye Linglong's understanding of spiritual herbs surpasses that of ordinary people, foreshadowing her future talent in alchemy. - **Ye Rongyue's True Intentions:** The coldness in Ye Rongyue's eyes during her nighttime visit suggests she has begun to be wary of Ye Linglong's unusual behavior, laying the groundwork for future power struggles. Hopefully, this story's beginning meets your expectations. Please let me know if you need more details or adjustments.
