Junior Brother Mo Has Returned

Even after returning to Tingchun Cliff, Yu Zhiling had not yet recovered her senses. She went straight to the hot spring to bathe, soaking in the spring water until her entire body relaxed, feeling an unspeakable comfort.

Two quarters of an hour passed. Drying her hair, she stepped into the inner chamber. Passing the exquisitely carved screen and lifting the bead curtain, she saw the main hall before her.

Yu Zhiling opened the wardrobe and was instantly dazed by a closet full of garments.

Pink, peach, plum blossom red... all sorts of glaring reds, along with a collection of glittering hairpins and jewelry.

While bathing in the spring, she had seen the original owner's face. It was almost identical to her face in her previous world, with the only difference being a floral forehead mark in the center of Immortal Venerable Zhuo Yu's brow, resembling a spiritual seal.

It seemed that perhaps because of their identical appearance and matching names, she had been pulled into the book?

Yu Zhiling felt a slight headache. Glancing at the pile of fiery red clothes, she somehow recalled the scene of Immortal Venerable Zhuo Yu's death in the original work. The more she looked at them, the more eyesore they became. She rummaged through the wardrobe with great effort, finally pulling out a dark green robe buried at the very bottom.

The style was completely different from those bright red ones, and it looked decent. Yu Zhiling put it on immediately without much thought.

Having finished bathing, she dragged a chair out to the courtyard and began to ponder once more: why on earth had she transmigrated into a book? It still felt a bit strange.

She raised her hand, looking at the serpent bracelet on her wrist, and asked, "How could this bracelet transport me across two worlds?"

[This is classified system information. The system does not have the authority to disclose it.]

This serpent bracelet was the clue that led to her transmigration. She knew she could not return, but she was unwilling to remain in the dark and always wanted to investigate the truth.

Serpent bracelet... serpent...

Could it be related to Mo Zhu?

In the original work, Mo Zhu was the last Tengshe left in the world. When heavily injured, he was picked up by Immortal Venerable Zhuo Yu. However, in the entire Yingshan Sect, and even the whole of Zhongzhou, no one knew his true identity, merely treating him as an ordinary snake demon.

Zhuo Yu did not know, but Yu Zhiling had read the book and possessed the perspective of the Heavenly Dao, so she knew very well.

The Tengshe clan possessed extraordinary innate talent, their bloodline sitting between demon and divine beast, incomparable to ordinary demon races.

Six hundred years ago, the world suffered a great catastrophe brought down by heaven and earth. The three sects and four clans lost more than half of their forces before they could suppress the demon race into the Demon Abyss and establish the seal of the Four Slayers Realm.

But because the demon race had assisted the devils during that catastrophe with the ambition of wiping out Zhongzhou, even though they were not the masterminds, they had still been ostracized by Zhongzhou over the years.

Immortal Venerable Zhuo Yu was especially so. From her very first appearance in the story, she had relentlessly suppressed and humiliated the male lead due to his identity as a snake demon. Yet, for some inexplicable reason, she refused to let him go, even implanting a Gu worm in him so he could never betray the Yingshan Sect.

Disliking him yet refusing to let him go—when reading the novel, Yu Zhiling had also felt that this Immortal Venerable was truly sick in the head.

"Sigh..."

Unfortunately, she used to have an online friend named A Gui. The two of them got along very well. When she was hospitalized, only A Gui messaged her daily to check on her, making him her first and only friend. They had even agreed to meet during the Lunar New Year.

She wondered if A Gui was sad now that he couldn't contact her...

Yu Zhiling lay on the chair for a long time. Just as she was drifting between sleep and wakefulness, a knock suddenly sounded at the courtyard gate.

"Immortal Venerable."

Yu Zhiling woke up instantly and reflexively replied, "I'm here!"

The disciple outside fell silent, and she shut her mouth as well.

Ah, just like the times she was caught napping in class by her teachers...

The disciple's voice was as quiet as a mosquito: "Junior Brother Mo has returned."
