"No matter how far you could run that night, with a mortal body you couldn't cross the barrier of Wuji Peak... As long as you don't leave the range of Wuji Sect's barrier, no one can kill you under my nose within a ten-mile radius."

"Senior Sister even thought of this?"

Yino looked pleasantly surprised. He knew that with the jade pendant on him, Yuyan would protect him, but he didn't know that Yuyan was only cold on the surface and had actually been concerned about his personal safety all night.

In the game, Yuyan didn't even protect the main character so strictly…

"Back at the Grand Tutor's Mansion, I already promised your father to bring you up the mountain to cultivate, to protect you completely, to nurture your talents..."

Yuyan spoke calmly, resting her chin on her left hand, while her right hand reached out to pinch Yino's face.

Her beautiful hand suddenly pinched a bit harder, and she snorted coldly: "Now, since I've brought this troublesome young master up the mountain, as your senior sister and guardian, I naturally have to be responsible for you."

"But I can't stay in Wuji Sect for my entire life, can I..."

Although Yino was touched emotionally, he was still quite troubled rationally.

After all, since he chose to come to the dangerous place of Wuji Sect to make his way, he couldn't waste the original game script in his head!

Otherwise, what's the difference between hiding on Ranmo Peak practicing swordsmanship with Yuyan and staying at the Grand Tutor's Mansion clinging to his aunt's leg?

"You're that eager to go down the mountain to be a hero for the world?"

Yuyan tilted her head slightly, a flash of joy going through her icy gaze, but it did not hide the other half of her suspicion.

"It's not that I really want to, mainly because Senior Sister Yunjin invited me, I've already made plans with her..."

Yino accidentally revealed his true thoughts.

As soon as he said this, Yuyan's jade hand pinching his face suddenly stopped.

She pinched Yino's cheek, narrowing her beautiful eyes, and snorted with dissatisfaction:

"Then don't go."

"I see that you little pervert quite like me too. These days, when you're not staring at my legs and feet, you're staring at my shoulders and chest without getting bored..."

"Since little brother is so young and vigorous, with a belly full of energy and nowhere to release it... why not stay on Ranmo Peak, and later your senior sister will personally teach you a few more sword techniques, let you look your fill, how about that?"

In the end, Yuyan smiled gracefully. Although her words were still gentle and alluring, her stern tone and resentful gaze were no longer disguised.

How could Yuyan's so-called personal teaching really let Yino feast his eyes?

She must be planning to train this little pervert, who's eyeing what's beyond his reach, to death, training him in swordsmanship until his arms are about to break off, so tired at night that he falls asleep as soon as his head hits the pillow... This way, Yino would no longer have extra energy to stare at his senior sister's body every day thinking about naughty things.

For a moment, Yino had used up all the lines he had prepared and was left speechless.

"Meh... meh..."

At some point, the nine-colored deer also puffed up her cute face, using a pitiful, pleading gaze, lowering her head to gently rub against Yuyan's legs.

Obviously, as the guardian deity of Snow Village, it also harbored resentful emotions about the catastrophe that befell its people.

And just as the atmosphere in the courtyard fell into silence, a girl's panting voice came from outside the yard not far away:

"Junior Brother Yino!"

"The Immortal Alliance has issued a large-scale mission, let's go to North Snow Mountain together!"

...

...

...

"Brother Chen, the Immortal Alliance issued a large-scale mission last night. I heard that a small village in the northern snow mountains was wiped out, and the sect is asking us young disciples to go investigate for clues!"

"They say finding one clue can earn ten spirit stones from the Immortal Alliance! And depending on the progress of the Snow Village investigation, there will be more spirit stone rewards later!"

In the main hall of Wuji Sect, many young disciples gathered around a black-robed boy, discussing animatedly.

Everyone was just newly admitted low-level novices. At their level, they usually could only take on small commissions like catching cats or dogs. No one expected that today there would be a large-scale mission open to entry-level disciples.

This large-scale mission had no threshold or limit on the number of participants, and it didn't sound dangerous at all. It was simply paying disciples to go to Snow Village to investigate clues.

Although for inner disciples, this kind of open mission was considered low pay for a lot of work.

But for novice disciples, it was just right, after all, they didn't mind the low pay and had plenty of time to wander around the Snow Village ruins!

"This mission is not bad, certainly more meaningful than doing volunteer work for old peoples in the mountains every day!"

Chen Jianxin looked at the Immortal Alliance seal on the mission board, his eyes also lighting up.

But soon, other disciples thought of a problem:

"But Snow Village is quite far from Wuji Sect, how should we get there? If we walk, we definitely won't make it in time!"

"That's true, but our cultivation is low, no one knows flying techniques..."

"Brother Chen, can you fly on a sword?"

A junior disciple came forward, eyes full of admiration.

Chen Jianxin's face showed difficulty as he turned away: "I've just reached the seventh level of Qi Refinement, Senior Brother Gu said sword flying requires at least the Core Formation stage!"

"Sigh... what should we do then? Should we go back and ask our masters?"

"Forget it, the elders are rarely seen every day, only senior sisters and brothers in the sect are willing to pay attention to us..."

"Then, should we go ask Senior Sister Yunjin for help?"

"That's an idea!"

The disciples looked at each other, but they were all newcomers, unfamiliar with the place, and could only discuss noisily.

Chen Jianxin listened silently on the side, his face showing difficulty.

Ever since that night when he was refused dinner by Yunjin, Chen Jianxin hadn't encountered Yunjin much.

He suspected that Yunjin had been completely bought off by Yino with money!

Because just this morning, when he heard about the Immortal Alliance issuing a mission and rushed to the main hall, he brushed past Yunjin who was hurriedly running...

Chen Jianxin wanted to ask her if she wanted to do the mission together, but Yunjin actually said she had something to do, and then ran off in the direction of Ranmo Peak!

-It's only been three days since they last met, and it's already developed to the point of visiting?-

Chen Jianxin couldn't help but feel envious and jealous.

Senior Brother Gu had said that his people were wiped out because they offended the nobles of the Great Dragon Dynasty!

And the Seventh Young Master of the Grand Tutor's Mansion was obviously one of the biggest privileged classes of the Great Dragon Dynasty!

Now, this rich young master Yino was even monopolizing the little senior sister who was the Friend of Newcomers!

"You're Chen Jianxin, right!"

At some point, a sweet and charming girl's voice came from behind everyone.

Jianxin turned to look, and in an instant, his soul was lost in the girl's world-class enchanting eyes—

"My name is Jinyue, I'm two years your senior. I know a shortcut, why don't I take you to Northern Snow Mountain?"

"Great! Thank you, Senior Sister!"

Many young disciples nodded obediently with bewildered faces.

Jinyue smiled knowingly, her beautiful eyes turning to look towards distant Ranmo Peak:

"However, before we go, I have something to do. I need to wait for a friend in the main hall."

"You don't mind if my friend and I join your team, do you?"
