[A whole sect of pitiful disciples who dote on their junior sister + a spoiled junior sister + a growing ensemble cast + scams and trickery]
Meng Zhiyi was tricked and coaxed into joining Fengpo Sect by her third senior brother. Looking at the poor, dilapidated sect, she wanted to kick it eighty-one times with all her might.
But before she could land even one kick, the gate collapsed with a bang, and she ended up being held responsible for the damage.
Having run away from home and unable to pay, Meng Zhiyi was forced to sign a one-sided contract: she had to serve as Fengpo Sect's junior sister for a hundred years before she could leave.
Meng Zhiyi: QAQ
If that's how it is, don't blame her for showing no mercy!
*
On her first day in the sect, Meng Zhiyi plucked all the fur off the Swift Wind Rabbits in the back mountain and declared she would make a fur coat and spicy rabbit heads.
On her third day in the sect, Meng Zhiyi chopped down every golden-thread nanmu tree in the back mountain and declared she would make herself a bed out of golden-thread nanmu.
One month after joining the sect, Meng Zhiyi shaved off Elder Nanfeng's hair and beard, then drew a turtle on his head that wouldn't wash off for a whole month.
After doing every kind of mischief, Meng Zhiyi clapped her hands and admired her handiwork with satisfaction.
She had caused so much trouble that even her father couldn't stand it. Surely they'd kick her out of Fengpo Sect now, right?
They wanted her to stay in this godforsaken place for a hundred years? Dream on!
But who could have guessed that the Swift Wind Rabbits, stripped of their fur, would awaken their hidden bloodline; that beneath the felled golden-thread nanmu trees lay tens of thousands of spirit stones; and that Elder Nanfeng, whose hair and beard had been shaved off, would break through to the Nascent Soul stage in a fit of rage?
The disciples of Fengpo Sect, who had finally realized their junior sister's good intentions, dabbed at their eyes with handkerchiefs, pretending to cry.
Having a junior sister is wonderful. Why didn't they meet her sooner? QAQ
Meng Zhiyi: Uh, well... I was actually trying to cause trouble. Do you believe me?

After getting the opposite of what she wanted, Meng Zhiyi decided to devote herself to cultivation. Once she had mastered it, she would find a chance to beat them all up. If that didn't work, she could at least trip them up.
But then she caught a glimpse of heavenly secrets, went into cultivation deviation, and lost all her cultivation, with every meridian in her body severed.
When Meng Zhiyi woke up and saw her senior brothers and sisters tending to her bedside with tea and water and fussing over her, she subtly edged backward.
Her eldest senior brother, who covered for her, would one day be skinned and dismembered. Her second senior sister, who loved buying her clothes, would have her bones ground to dust by her beloved. Her third senior brother, whom she occasionally had to support and who spent all his money on her, would be thrown into a demon's lair and corrupted into a demon. Her fourth senior sister, who often trained her, would be tormented to death by disciples of a rival sect.
Even the elders of Fengpo Sect, who always protected the younger generation and stood up for them, would be executed by a thousand cuts or nailed to pillars of shame, left exposed to the wind and sun.
Meng Zhiyi sprang to her feet.
Damn it! This sect is mine to bully!
But the man she had rescued looked awfully familiar. He had the exact same face as Yuan Yi, the Demon Venerable who, in the heavenly secrets she had seen, would lead the demon army to flatten Fengpo Sect and every other sect in the cultivation world.
Meng Zhiyi: You're not the Demon Venerable, are you?
Ji Li: You tell me.
Meng Zhiyi: ...
Fengpo Sect disciples: Get away from her! Stay away from our little cabbage of a junior sister!
● Fengpo Sect's principles:
1. Scam, trick, and do every manner of evil.
2. If you can make your opponent furious, don't let yourself lose face.
3. There are countless things in the world. If something can be mine, it must be mine. If it can't be mine, I have to snatch it anyway.
4. If you get bullied while out and about, come back and rally the others to keep fighting!
5. The disciples are all recruited by trickery. If you can't trick them into coming, abduct them~
(One successful case: Fengpo Sect's very best junior sister!)
