I woke up to find myself as the villain's older sister.

Chapter 377 Archive 5

In order to find something to eat when he was starving, he used up most of his soul power and almost disappeared several times.

Within the Xie family, some people harbored resentment and envy because of his talent. So, when his talent disappeared and he was abandoned, those who had never dared to lay a hand on him, like Xie Xu, found ways to bully him every day.

Xie Xiyan knew that it was Xie Xu's idea for a servant to sell him out, and that the Xie family head was able to discover it in time because Ling Xuzi crippled Zhou Zhang to lure the person over.

He would never forget those days they spent together, but Qi Lingxuzi had only been deceiving himself from the beginning.

"Oh dear, my good disciple, if I didn't say that, would you have agreed to it? Really." Ling Xuzi smiled ingratiatingly.

Xie Xiyan rolled her eyes at him, annoyed. Although his words were irritating, they were also true. According to her own personality when she was a child, although she was brave, she was only afraid of peeing her pants when facing ghosts.

If it were really as he said, and he openly said he wanted to enter her body, she would definitely be extremely unwilling and would still have to tell her father and mother.

Thinking of his parents... Xie Xiyan's eyes darkened.

"Xi Yan, what are you thinking about?" Yun Qingyi asked worriedly when she saw Xie Xi Yan suddenly stop talking and look a little pale.

"N-nothing." Xie Xiyan smiled at Yun Qingyi after regaining his senses, but for some reason, he didn't want to hide it: "It's just... I was thinking about my parents."

Yun Qingyi was stunned. Knowing the plot well, she naturally knew that Xie Xiyan's parents had volunteered to fight against the barbaric demon race, and Xie Xiyan was later sent to his uncle's house.

Yun Qingyi: "Xi Yan, have you ever thought about going to find your parents?"

“I’ve thought about it, but it’s not the right time yet. Before, it was because I wasn’t strong enough. Now that I am, I still need to go to the Demon Capital to ensure everything goes smoothly,” Xie Xiyan said.

"Huh? What a coincidence." After the Centennial Grand Competition and the Disciple Recruitment Conference, she also had to go to the Demon Capital to conduct an investigation.

Xie Xiyan raised an eyebrow: "What do you mean?"

After Yun Qingyi explained her situation, Xie Xiyan's heart stirred slightly. "Would Qingyi be interested in forming a team together?"

“Of course.” Yun Qingyi agreed without hesitation. “But won’t that delay your schedule?” After all, the Centennial Grand Competition and the Disciple Recruitment Conference together will take at least a month.

Xie Xiyan shook his head upon hearing this and jokingly said, "It's a good opportunity to enjoy the scenery of Xuanmiao Sect and broaden my horizons."

Yun Qingyi smiled slightly: "Okay, I'll definitely show you around properly later."

On the other side, Yun Qingrou listened silently to the conversation between the two without saying a word.

Noticing that Yun Qingrou was indeed a little different from before, Yun Qingyi was worried but helpless. After all, if asked, she would only say that everything was fine. So Yun Qingyi could only hold her hand tightly.

The warm touch came from her palm, and Yun Qingrou's eyelashes trembled slightly. She hesitated for a while before gripping it tightly.

She couldn't let her older sister worry anymore.

Yun Qingrou smiled brightly, "Sister, I saw you were having a great time chatting, so I didn't want to disturb you. Now that we have nothing more to say, shall we go back to Peach Blossom Peak? Ruan Qi and the others will be back soon, and we can discuss the martial arts tournament."

Seeing that Yun Qingrou was no longer acting strangely, Yun Qingyi felt a little relieved and smiled gently, "Okay."

Whether it's a forced act or a genuine recovery, it proves that Yun Qingrou can at least control her inner demons for now.

That's right. The reason why he and his master didn't say anything or interfere just now was because Yun Qingrou already had a demon in her heart.

From the eye contact she exchanged with her master, it can be inferred that this inner demon likely began to fester in Yun Qingrou's childhood.

This is also where they are most helpless, since this is something that can only be solved by their own willpower and when they figure it out.

On the way to Peach Blossom Peak by flying on his sword, Ling Xuzi stared at Yun Qingrou and clicked his tongue twice.

"What's wrong, Master?" Xie Xiyan asked in his mind, puzzled when he heard Ling Xuzi's voice.

"This little girl is something else."
