The woman thought about the past and said in a complicated tone: "Do you know how I became a ghost?"
Tao Zi guessed: "Resentment?"
She smiled and murmured: "It should be hated. That day, I failed to kill him and was restrained, but from other perspectives, it was considered a success."
She asked doubtfully: "Why do you say that?"
"One thing was missing from the illusion I created - the hairpin was coated with childless medicine."
The woman's smile was full of joy and vague hatred: "He caused me to lose my parents and relatives, so I will let him have no children of his own in this life. It's a good thing that he didn't tell Zhou Jiaojiao about the matter at that time, otherwise Zhou Jiaojiao would have You won’t use the child to frame me.”
Tao Zi didn't say anything. Things in this world are indeed uncertain. Who would have thought that a frame-up would turn into a success?
"What happened to you?"
Faced with this sudden question, the woman was stunned for a moment, and then said lightly: "I was made into a human pig and survived for ten years, but this is my retribution. It was because I didn't know people well that I lured the wolf into the house. "
Tao Zi looked at her complete hands and feet and had doubts in her heart, saying: "Logically speaking, the appearance when she becomes a ghost should be the same as when she was alive."
"I met an immortal who had an old relationship with my father. He asked me whether I wanted to enter a fantasy world and experience a happy life, or turn into a ghost and wait for revenge. I chose the latter. Later, when the immortal died, I came to the ruins Keeping it for him can be regarded as repaying a favor."
Tao Zi looked calm on his face, but there was already a turmoil in his heart. This was actually a relic of a powerful person who had left his body more than three thousand years ago.
The woman looked at her, with a bit of nostalgia in her smile, and said: "I like you very much. If possible, I would like you to pass the test directly, but it's a pity..."
"What's a pity?"
"It's a pity that you woke up halfway. This is against the rules."
Tao Zi: "...Didn't you make me sober?"
"Hey, it seems so, but I just relaxed my control on you slightly. You won't wake up under normal circumstances. This is because your own consciousness is too strong, so you can't blame me."
The woman actually had a hint of playfulness when she spoke, even though this playfulness was very annoying.
Tao Zi tried her best to keep a gentle expression: "Does that mean I have no chance?"
"Not really, I told you that I like you very much, so it doesn't hurt to give you another chance."
The woman waved her hand, and the scene in front of her was shattered again. A careless word also spilled out from the broken words, but Tao Zi couldn't hear it: "I think he will allow it."
Tao Zi slowly opened her eyes. She was standing on the top of Xingfeng Peak.
Why are you here?
As soon as this doubt emerged in my mind, Xing Zhan's voice rang out: "Senior Sister, this is what you want."
She looked back and saw the teenage Xing Zhan standing behind him, holding a box in his hand.
All doubts were resolved without any problem. Tao Zi took the box naturally and said, "Thank you for your hard work."
Xing Zhan lowered his eyes and was just about to speak when a noise came from not far away: "Senior Sister!"
She looked up and saw Xu Qianjia coming in a hurry.
Xing Feng's environment had a great impact on him. Even though he was walking fast, his face was still pale.
Tao Zi smiled, but her eyes were cold: "Qianjia, why are you here?"
Xu Qianjia smiled and said: "Senior sister has been coming to Xing Feng recently, and I just wanted to come and see what's going on."
"The execution hall has just been established not long ago, so I naturally have to pay more attention."
He turned his attention to the box in her arms.
Seeing this, Tao Zi handed the box to him: "This is a gift brought by my senior sister's friend from the south. It will help with cultivation. Take it and give it to your junior brothers and sisters."
Xu Qianjia cheered up and responded: "Yes."
She added: "As for the rules of the execution hall, senior sister still needs to discuss with Xing Zhan. You should go back first."
"yes."
After he walked away, Tao Zi didn't even bother to disguise the smile on her lips. She turned to look at Xing Zhan and said: "If you don't go to the Three Treasures Hall for nothing, he must have heard the news. You should check it carefully. I don't want Xing Zhan to go to the Three Treasures Hall." Become a sieve.”
Xing Zhan was startled for a moment. He didn't understand why Xu Qianjia couldn't know about this kind of thing, but he still agreed.
She looked at Xing Zhan, who was only fifteen years old, and her tone softened: "A Zhan, although you are only fifteen years old, senior sister trusts you, and I hope you will not disappoint senior sister like them."
He shuddered and said like an oath: "Even if I die, I will never betray my senior sister!"
Tao Zi nodded with satisfaction and walked slowly towards the newly built house.
Those three were useless. Ever since she discovered this, she had spent more than fifty years correcting them. Unfortunately, there was no hope.
From now on, they are still her junior brothers and sisters, but she will no longer train them like before.
Of course, as a senior sister, she would still give them what was due to them, but don’t think about anything extra.
Thinking of this, Tao Zi slowly sighed. If her master hadn't already been in the state of becoming a god when he came out of seclusion, and if it weren't for the master's status to handle those things, she wouldn't have to put so much thought into it.
Nowadays, there are many people in the entire world of cultivating immortals staring at her. If she and Minglan Sect cannot get up, the resources belonging to Tianzun cannot be taken over, and she will inevitably become a lamb in the eyes of various sects.
Thinking about the resources that only sects with Tianzun could have, Tao Zi cheered up again.
She must protect these resources, otherwise both the Minglan Sect and she will become a stepping stone for others.
But she alone was far from enough, and the three were unreliable. She had to quietly select a few more people to train, and Xing Zhan was one of them.
In terms of strength, Xingzhan is not very conspicuous due to his spiritual veins, but he has a good character and practices quite hard. Choosing him would not only make Xu Qianjia suspicious and do something secretly, but also allow him to hide in the dark before he grows up, which is very good.
Tao Zi listened to the neither light nor heavy footsteps behind her and breathed out slowly. As long as Xing Zhan and others got up, she could put aside the affairs within the sect and concentrate on her cultivation.
In the final analysis, she was still in the current situation because she was not strong enough.
Twenty years later, Xing Zhan cut off the head of a monk in the consecration stage with his mid-solid strength during a killing operation, and he began to make a name for himself in the world of immortality.
Thirty years later, Xingzhan has entered the solid stage, and can compete across levels in the spiritual stage without falling behind.
Fifty years later, Xing Zhan seriously injured a Jindan deacon of Xujiamen at the early stage of meat forging.
In the same year, Tao Zi, the elder sister of the Minglan Sect, successfully advanced to the Nascent Soul stage and became the youngest Nascent Soul Lord in the world of immortality at the age of 160. She was killed in a ruins at the first level of the Nascent Soul. Kill the ninth level monk of Nascent Soul.
After this incident, Minglan Sect officially became one of the three sects.
At the same time, the elder sister of the Minglan Sect, who had just made a breakthrough, began to practice in seclusion, and all matters within the sect were handed over to the execution.
