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

Chapter 320 Seeing the Person I Long For Again

Duan Leizhi was utterly astonished: "You...! How is that possible? That was placed in..."

"The things placed in the forbidden pavilion of the Purple Cloud Sect, is that it?" The man in black robes chuckled, his face contorted with rotting skin. "Boy, before you die, I might as well tell you that I am from the Purple Cloud Sect."

Duan Leizhi's expression changed, and he immediately realized what was happening. Just as he was about to speak, he was struck to the ground by a tremendous force, unable to move and spitting out blood.

The man in black robes sneered, "You will all die so that I can see the light of day!" With that, he activated the surrounding incantations, and those inside the magic circle were the first to feel their blood being forcefully drawn away, even more intensely than when they were bled out in the magic circle before.

The man in black robes looked at everything before him with smug satisfaction. These incantations had been here ever since he was suppressed. Although he didn't understand what they were, they had been used by him all these years to cultivate his soul.

Screams echoed continuously across the square.

Yun Qingrou frowned, estimating the identity and strength of the man in black robes, and was preparing to make a move.

But at that moment, the surrounding space suddenly shifted and distorted, and a strange power began to permeate the plaza from somewhere.

"What's going on?" The man in black robes instantly became alert. A strong sense of crisis forced him to stop absorbing blood and look warily ahead. He keenly sensed that something seemed to be about to emerge.

Thinking of this, he secretly gathered his strength and became fully alert.

The spatial distortion intensified, and an irresistible force struck from directly in front of him, instantly tearing a crack in the space.

The irresistible force emanating from the cracks permeated the entire plaza, exuding an aura of danger.

The man in black robes was the first to realize the danger of the crack. He gritted his teeth and, without any hesitation, unleashed the power he had accumulated onto the gradually widening crack. The black mist formed from his spiritual energy was powerful and seemed to want to crush everything.

A figure emerged from the crack, ethereal and ghostly, its clothes tattered yet exuding a refined air. Its eyes were cold and indifferent, and its long, black hair flew wildly in the wind.

Without any unnecessary movements, the spiritual power unleashed by the black-robed man vanished in an instant.

"This... how is this possible..." The man in black robes subconsciously took a few steps back. Based on his many years of experience, the strength of this person who appeared out of nowhere was definitely above his own, and he was even an ant in front of this person.

Thinking of this, the black-robed man's fear intensified, and a sense of dread arose in his heart, causing his retreating steps to become increasingly disordered.

“Sister…” Yun Qingrou looked at the person in the middle of the square. Although the image was very different from what she remembered, compared to her previous somewhat aloof temperament, Yun Qingyi was now much colder. Her whole body exuded an indescribable madness and ruthlessness, but her expression was extremely indifferent.

"My sister..." Yun Qingrou was very happy to see the person she missed again, but the person in front of her was both familiar and unfamiliar, which made her unconsciously pause for a moment.

Yun Qingyi didn't look at anyone. Although her gaze was fixed on the man in black robes, her eyes were completely unfocused. "Fool, did you activate this formation to link to the past?"

The cold sound was especially chilling in the empty square.

Upon hearing this, several possibilities flashed through the man in black's mind. He then knelt down with a thud: "Senior, please calm down! Senior, please calm down! I accidentally triggered the formation. Please forgive me, senior."

The man in black robes had lived for so many years, and although he had never knelt before anyone and felt humiliated, he could only grit his teeth and lower his head at the critical moment of life and death, after all, the person in front of him was someone he could not afford to offend.

Yun Qingyi listened indifferently, her eyes showing no emotion. "Although it is the Divine Scripture Plaza ten thousand years later, as the last judge, I should still have the right to judge."

What divine scripture? What right to judge? Everyone present was somewhat bewildered, including the sect disciples inside the formation who hadn't fainted yet. Although they didn't understand, their only common point was that they dared not utter a sound.

"Therefore, I sentence you to death."

Yun Qingyi's voice remained icy, as if chilling to the bone.

"Execute him," Yun Qingyi said again.

Before the man in black could react, a figure moved with lightning speed, passing through his body. He felt a chill and looked down to find a hole in his heart.

“My…heart…” He turned his head and saw Yun Qingyi holding his heart expressionlessly, crushing it.

A cloud of red blood mist emanated from the center of the hand.

Normally, this level of injury would be serious for a cultivator, but not fatal. Moreover, he was an evil cultivator. Even without the top-grade pills that could turn bones white, he could still survive by simply having someone else replace his heart.

After all, the most important things for a cultivator are their dantian and spiritual root.

only……

The man in black robes stared blankly at the empty space in his chest. How could... why was his power slowly disappearing...?

Before he could figure it out, he collapsed to the ground without making a sound.

Yun Qingyi maintained a blank expression throughout. With a slight movement of her fingers, the black-robed man on the ground was immediately enveloped in a cloud of lightning mist. As the lightning mist dissipated, the spot where the black-robed man had been was now completely devoid of bones.

Then she raised her hand, and the surrounding incantations seemed to sense something, emitting a soft light. The array set up by Duan Leizhi's array master completely disappeared, and the soft light healed the sect disciples who had been trapped and used by Duan Leizhi in the array. The healing speed was astonishing.

Yun Qingyi glanced at it briefly, then her figure flashed and disappeared from the square.

"Wait! Sister!" She teleported to the rift, but it was still over. The rift disappeared, and with it, the incantation stopped working.

“Sister…” Yun Qingrou murmured softly.

We haven't seen each other in a long time.

She gazed at the direction where the crack disappeared, feeling somewhat lost, thinking of that cold and indifferent figure.

What have you been through...?

The disciples of the sect present, having survived the ordeal, all breathed a sigh of relief. Some hugged their senior brothers and sisters and couldn't help but cry. The rest, although not as distraught, still looked unwell and were still shaken by the memory.

After a while, when everyone had calmed down, they started discussing what had just happened.

"It's too dangerous here. I want to crush the jade pendant and go back."

"Speaking of which, the jade token was unusable inside the formation just now. I had already crushed it, but I still can't go back."

"I did it too. Most people did it during that critical moment. What should we do? Now we have to wait another year to get out."

"A year is a short time for cultivators, but this is an ancient secret realm. The slightest carelessness could lead to death."

"Yes, yes, a year is still too long in this secret realm. If it weren't for that senior just now, we might all have died here."

"Speaking of which, do you know that senior?"

"I don't know, I've never seen her before. I was too nervous just now. I heard someone call her 'elder sister,' but where is that person? Did I hear wrong?"

"That senior seemed to call himself the Judge. What is a Judge?"

"Foolish, the Judge, as the name suggests, is someone who judges crimes, but... is she a god?"

"I think so! Although his clothes were a bit sloppy, God is always unconcerned with details. The key is his temperament, which is simply awe-inspiring."

"And did you see that? She didn't take that man in black robes seriously at all. Only a god could have such strength."

"No matter what, she saved me. From now on, I will worship her every day. She will be my faith!"

The crowd chattered amongst themselves until they turned their attention to the people from the Purple Cloud Sect.

……

"What...what are you looking at?" Only the people from the Zixiao Sect were not treated. Even so, because they were not inside the formation, their strength was still preserved.

Several Nascent Soul cultivators instantly unleashed their oppressive aura.

The others, though seething with hatred, knew that most of their jade tokens were broken in this secret realm, and they couldn't confront them head-on.

So he simply snorted coldly: "Gentlemen, you'd better watch yourselves!"

After saying this, led by disciples of the sect with higher cultivation levels, everyone left the underground palace.

The people of Zixiao Sect breathed a sigh of relief when they saw them leave.

Although they still had some strength left, they had just been injured unintentionally. They outnumbered each other and simply couldn't fight them.

"Sixth Brother, the Young Sect Master is only unconscious; he's still breathing," said a disciple of the Purple Cloud Sect.

"That's good. Young Sect Master, you must not get hurt." Xiao Liu breathed a sigh of relief.

"We can't stay here any longer. Let's take the young sect leader and leave first," said the formation master.

He didn't want to stay in this awful place for another second. Looking at the darkened incantations, he still felt a chill run down his spine.

"That's right." Xiao Liu responded, and took the initiative to carry Duan Leizhi on his back, walking at the very back, leaving the place with the others.

No one noticed that Duan Leizhi's eyes opened for a moment, emitting an eerie red light, before slowly closing again.
