At this moment, Xin Wan'en was already crying uncontrollably.
Her body trembled, and she couldnât help but step back two steps.
She had never imagined that it was her own younger sister who caused the fall of the Xin family and the death of their father, Xin Zhanguan.
Why?
Xin Wan'en shouted loudly, "If you want me dead, just kill me. Why did you have to kill father?"
"He loved us so much!"
Xin Lanying sharply said, "Shut up! Xin Zhanguan loved only you, not me, not me!"
Her voice echoed in the empty hall.
The two sisters of the Xin family were now completely on opposite sides!
As her emotions grew more intense, the ghostly energy around Xin Lanying became denser.
Seeing this,
Ye Yu couldnât help but raise an eyebrow.
He said in a deep voice, "Be careful, she has already reached the Ghost Immortal Realm!"
Upon hearing this, Xin Wan'en was extremely shocked.
How could this be possible?
Even if Xin Lanying had absorbed the ghostly energy that she had infused into their father, there was no way her strength could have increased so drastically in just three years.
After all, this was the Ghost Immortal Realm!
The strongest power in the Underworld, the ancestor of the Chu family, Chu Tiannuo, had cultivated for tens of thousands of years and had never reached this realm!
How could her sister possibly achieve this?
When she saw the astonished look in Xin Wan'enâs eyes,
Xin Lanyingâs vanity was greatly satisfied.
Her previously grim expression softened.
She softly said, "I like that expression of yours! When Xin Zhanguan, that old man, died, he looked at me with the same expression."
"As if it was unimaginable that I could accomplish such things."
"Good, really good!"
As her words fell,
A manâs agonized face appeared behind Xin Lanying.
It was Cao Yongyu, the sect master of the Graveflower Ghost Manor.
Xin Lanying gently cupped his face with one hand, her eyes filled with tenderness.
She whispered, "Do you know? It was this man who gave me love."
"I thought I would be with him forever."
"But he made the fatal mistake of showing interest in you."
"Today, itâs just recruitment. Tomorrow, it might be him seeking affection."
"I donât want things to get so complicated."
"So, I acted first and completely kept him inside my body."
"Yes, just as you thought, I swallowed him!"
"And I completely refined all of his and the other five elders' ghostly energy."
"Thatâs how I obtained my current level."
"Sister, donât worry, I will swallow you too!"
"Oh, by the way, and you, Ye Yu!"
"Youâve really made me dislike you ever since we were kids."
Facing Xin Lanyingâs direct mention,
Ye Yu smiled faintly and said, "Coincidentally, I feel the same."
"If this is your final word, I think youâve already said enough!"
His calm tone and indifferent gaze
Made Xin Lanying immediately lose her composure.
Ever since they were young, Ye Yu had always treated her like this!
Why?
Now, she had already reached the Ghost Immortal Realm!
How dare he not take her seriously!
Xin Lanyingâs mind moved, and her body turned into nothingness.
When she reappeared, she had completely transformed into a shadow, wrapping around Ye Yu.
Her eyes locked onto Xin Wan'en beside him.
She coldly said, "Sister, Iâve heard that you really like this disciple of yours, even forming a Daoist couple with him."
"Well then, today, Iâll let you understand how painful it is to watch your loved one die in front of you!"
"You couldnât save Xin Zhanguanâs life, and you wonât be able to save Ye Yuâs either!"
"No!"
Xin Wan'enâs face turned pale, and she instinctively tried to rush forward to stop it.
But she was immediately pushed back by an unknown force.
Xin Lanying slightly lowered her head, and in an instant, a unique space appeared around Ye Yu.
The surroundings revealed countless glowing ghostly patterns!
These patterns locked Ye Yu inside.
And Xin Lanyingâs body gradually became ethereal, eventually turning into starlight, trying to enter Ye Yuâs body.
But Ye Yuâs expression still showed no panic.
The next moment,
A ball of black flames rose from Ye Yuâs body.
The flames surged high, breaking through the surrounding ghostly patterns.
Xin Lanying let out a painful scream!
"Ah!!!"
As Ye Yuâs hands shifted,
The black flames eventually engulfed all of Xin Lanyingâs starlight.
And compressed it to the extreme.
Ye Yu raised his right hand and looked at the painful expression of the shrunk Xin Lanying.
He softly said, "Swallowing ghostly creatures to improve cultivation isnât a smart way."
"Especially when you make your move, itâs when youâre at your most vulnerable."
"I really donât know how youâve managed to survive until now."
After that, Ye Yu didnât personally kill her, but instead handed her over to Xin Wan'en!
Strictly speaking,
Xin Lanying was the true killer of Xin Wan'enâs father.
Itâs better for them to handle their own family matters.
Xin Wan'en took the burned Xin Lanying, wrapped in the Nine Nether flame, from Ye Yuâs hands.
Her gaze changed constantly.
After hesitating for a moment, she immediately struck down her half-sister.
Having avenged her father, Xin Wan'en didnât show much joy.
Instead, she collapsed into Ye Yuâs arms, crying uncontrollably.
She told Ye Yu that, actually, °⢠N đ v đ l i g h t â˘Â° when Xin Lanying had disappeared without saying a word and left the Xin family,
She had already begun to suspect her younger sister.
But back then, the Xin family was in turmoil and about to collapse.
Xin Wan'en had only this one true blood relative.
She really didnât want to face the reality.
Later, even when Dong Yuan, an elder from the Graveflower Ghost Manor, told her that Xin Lanying had become the sect masterâs wife,
Xin Wan'enâs instinctive thought was still to avoid it.
But now,
Xin Wan'en really couldnât avoid it anymore.
The revenge for her fatherâs death could not go unavenged.
What really tore at her heart was what Xin Lanying had said when she was about to kill Ye Yu.
She really couldnât imagine how she would live if something happened to Ye Yu.
The result was something Xin Wan'en didnât even dare to think about.
Ye Yu gently patted her back and comforted her, "Itâs all over now, everything is fine."
"If, and I mean if, I really wasnât here, you could go to the Heavenly Realm. Maybe Iâd be an immortal there!"
These words left Xin Wan'en confused.
Just as she was about to ask what he meant,
The entire world began to shake violently.
