Chapter 12.21 Yu Hui and Judgment
Senior Lan Hua showed no surprise, as if she had long expected me to appear. Of course, her expression alone couldn’t tell if she knew beforehand.
It’s also possible she didn’t expect me, but put on an act of expecting me. If it’s Senior Lan Hua, she could do such a thing.
Compared to Senior Lan Hua, who could freely change her expressions, Little Master Juncheng’s younger sister’s reaction was much more “real”.
“What? You’re Xiao Bai! When did… did you know all along?”
Little Master Juncheng’s younger sister was very surprised to see me. As a reflex, she hugged Little Master Juncheng tightly and looked at me vigilantly. Midway through her speech, she turned to Senior Lan Hua in shock.
“Hehehe, I did sense someone approaching, but I didn’t expect it to be Junior Sister Bai… And I didn’t expect her to show up just from a casual probe?”
Admirable, as expected of a true stalker. In terms of stalking and counter-stalking abilities, I can’t compare to you, Senior.
“It wasn’t a casual probe. If I hadn’t shown up, you would have really eaten Little Master Juncheng.”
“Hehehe, are you saying Junior Sister Bai wants to join us too? We don’t mind sharing with you~”
I was a little tempted.
It was a very tempting offer, and I figured it wouldn’t be a trap, because Senior Lan Hua would use such tricks.
She would tell you directly, “This is a trap,” and you’d still willingly jump in because she’d offer the best bait.
A classic practical example of not being able to catch a wolf without sacrificing your child.
If I chose to join them here… No, there’s no “if.”
I would absolutely not agree.
“I’m sorry, but I cannot agree with your actions. For Little Master Juncheng’s safety, it’s better for me to take over.”
“Oh dear, that won’t do. This is something we absolutely cannot compromise on.”
“Wait, why do you know Lan Hua? Xiao Bai in this world shouldn’t remember Lan at all… Who are you?!”
As she said this, Little Master Juncheng’s younger sister raised her hand, and a whirlwind appeared in her palm.
“Oh my, you’re right. Junior Sister Bai, you actually remember me. I’m so touched~ But, could you please explain?”
“I am indeed meeting Senior Lan Hua for the ‘first time’, but I still remember things about you.”
“…Junior Sister Bai, have you ‘gotten used to it’ so you could retain the impression? In that case, Junior Sister Bai, you are also a flaw in this world.”
A flaw in this world.
That’s indeed correct.
Neither Juncheng and I have gone through the normal cycle of transmigration.
Thinking back now, we might be chess pieces on the board of some “great figures,” and these ten cycles of reincarnation might just be a lie.
But so what? Whether I’m treated as a chess piece or it’s just a lie, I don’t care about those things.
I have reincarnated repeatedly for Lord Juncheng, once gave up, and then returned to his side again.
I have no regrets.
“That kind of thing doesn’t matter.”
“It doesn’t matter now, hehe, I’m more interested… Junior Sister, which ‘part’ do you possess?”
…
As expected, she’s targeting the part I have.
This is also why I cannot agree to ally with them, because I would definitely have to offer something as a token of sincerity.
Clearly, Senior Lan Hua wants to lure me into joining them because of the part I possess.
And if they knew that the part I have is the left hand they’re looking for, it would be too easy for them.
“What’s wrong? Could it be… it’s exactly the left hand?”
“Why not come and confirm it yourself.”
“I’d love to, but I’m afraid Junior Sister Bai will lock me up as a hostage. Hehehe, so, I’ll leave this to you then, Younger Sister Xinran~ Little brat Juncheng, I’ll take him first~ Hehehe, come to big sister, Sister Lan will teach you fun games~”
“You cunning woman….”
Although Little Master Juncheng’s younger sister looked displeased, she still let Little Master Juncheng go to Senior Lan Hua’s side.
This also shows that she has already recognized me as an enemy.
“I advise you to stop, Xiao Bai. This matter has nothing to do with you.”
…Nothing to do with me?
“You’re staying by Brother’s side because of your past life memories, right? But this Brother is different from those past lives. You’re just looking for the shadow of your past life in Brother.”
“This life, you are not Brother’s F, and this battle for him has nothing to do with you. You don’t need to get involved in this mess. Isn’t it better to return to your usual life?”
“Your fate with Brother was severed in the previous life.”
…Severed.
What was severed was a thread in my mind.
What a pity, younger sister… No, An Xinran.
I originally wanted to be more respectful to you, after all, you are Lord Juncheng’s sister and his family…
But now, I don’t need to acknowledge you, yc.
“An Xinran, don’t speak as if you understand me so well. F Light Novel.”
I clenched my teeth, unable to bear it, I was so disappointed in you.
“What about you? Are you planning to become Lord Juncheng’s family? But what were you planning to do to Little Master Juncheng just now?”
Her appearance clearly indicated that she had ‘tasted’ him long ago.
Even though she’s his sister, she made a move.
Towards her own brother.
And she has no regrets at all.
Very proud?
You don’t deserve to be a sister like this.
“You keep calling him ‘Brother’ but you couldn’t uphold the principles of a sister, and you’re preaching to me with a false sisterly demeanor. How disgusting.”
“Brother and I are connected by a strong bond and longing. We accept each other. I am Brother’s sister and also Brother’s lover. There is no contradiction.”
“It’s just that this life you are by Lord Juncheng’s side as his ‘sister’, you’ve gotten carried away. Compared to you, a fake sister who ‘arrived midway’, I have always, always been by Lord Juncheng’s side, and in the future, I will always be by his side.”
“Heh, as a childhood friend?”
Such a condescending attitude, it’s sickening.
“Indeed, in this life, I am merely Lord Juncheng’s childhood friend. It’s unpleasant that in certain circles, there’s always this strange theory that ‘childhood friends are losers’.”
“And sisters, as family, are also ‘losers’ who cannot be with their brothers?”
“So, between ‘childhood friend’ and ‘sister’, which one is the real… loser? Want to try?”
“I couldn’t agree more.”
A surging storm gathered from all directions, swirling into an air sphere above Little Master Juncheng’s younger sister’s head. Its destructive power was incalculable, and it couldn’t be withstood head-on. The power of that explosion was immeasurable.
But I already knew Little Master Juncheng’s younger sister’s abilities like the back of my hand, and I had already prepared countermeasures.
If it’s manipulating natural forces, spells, immortal arts, and superpowers can all achieve it.
But to ‘dissipate’ it, only the Xuan arts I practice can do it.
I took out the talismans I had prepared from the talisman bag by my waist, pinched them between my fingers, infused them with spiritual energy, and threw them out like a card master throwing poker cards.
The talismans touched the storm sphere, spiritual energy surged, and then dissipated, turning into nothingness.
After neutralizing the attack, I immediately moved forward, hugged her directly, locked her joints, and stuffed a “Binding Talisman” into her chest.
Depriving her of her mobility.
Then, I lifted her chin with my hand, put my fingers into her mouth to hold her tongue, and with my other hand, I pulled out a hardened talisman paper and placed it on her neck.
Whispering in her ear.
“An Xinran, as a sister, you have failed.”
