Gu Qingfeng slowly reached out his demonic claws.
Yan Lingxue instantly turned pale with fright, constantly struggling and twisting her body, but the Touch of Ghosts and Gods continuously extracted her power, leaving her completely powerless to break free.
........
"Demoness! Hurry up and return control of this body! Otherwise, do not blame this Emperor for using heavy torture!"
"I............. you......."
Hearing this, Gu Qingfeng instantly flew into a rage: "Bastard! You actually dare to mock this Emperor, I will definitely teach you a lesson today!"
"Senior... Senior Gu, isn't this going a bit too far?"
"Shut up! You wouldn't want anything bad to happen to your sister, right?"
"I... I..."
"I what I? This Emperor is saving her!"
The exorcism ritual continued for a while. Suddenly, Yan Lingxue's expression changed, becoming extremely bewildered. When she saw clearly what Gu Qingfeng was doing, she instantly snapped back to reality and screamed involuntarily, "Who are you! What are you doing! Stop right now!"
From the corner of her eye, she caught sight of Yan Lingyu standing nearby. As if seeing a savior, she hurriedly cried out for help, "Xiao Yu, save me quickly!"
Yan Lingyu shook instantly, a flash of wild joy appearing on her face: "Senior Gu, please stop quickly, my sister is back! Only my sister would call me Xiao Yu!"
"You are still too young. Can't you see this is the demoness tricking you? She calls you Xiao Yu once, and you believe her?"
"But... but..."
"But what! If this Emperor stops now, all our previous efforts will be wasted, and your sister will never be able to come back!"
Yan Lingyu fell into a deep internal struggle for a moment.
"Xiao Yu, what are you guys talking about? I am your sister, save me quickly!"
"Sister, I..." Yan Lingyu struggled for a moment, and finally gritted her teeth, saying, "Sister, just hold on a little longer, it will be over soon."
"Xiao Yu, you..."
After another while.
Gu Qingfeng pulled Yan Lingyu over and asked, "This won't do, this demoness's willpower is truly too strong. We must put in more effort. Doesn't your sister dote on you the most?"
Yan Lingyu nodded.
"Then that settles it. You must also join the exorcism."
The complex and tedious exorcism ritual lasted for several hours before finally coming to an end.
The real Yan Lingxue also completely returned.
Watching the two sisters hugging and weeping, Gu Qingfeng felt deeply gratified.
Afterwards, the three of them left the Yellow Springs Ghost City. During this period, the Yan sisters wanted to leave, but Gu Qingfeng used the excuse that the demoness had not been completely eradicated. In order to prevent a relapse, acting the good guy to the end, he kept the two sisters by his side.
Yan Lingyu did not have much of a reaction, as she was already mentally prepared. Along the way, she had grown accustomed to Gu Qingfeng's actions. She even felt that not being eaten like the ghosts and gods was already a very good outcome.
But Yan Lingxue was clearly unwilling, always testing the waters in every possible way, wanting to escape.
Gu Qingfeng saw all of this and privately transmitted a voice message to Yan Lingxue, "You demoness, you've actually been acting all along, haven't you?"
Yan Lingxue turned pale with fright: "If you have something to say, just say it directly, why make up such an excuse!"
"Do you really think this Emperor does not understand the profound meaning of reincarnation?"
In fact, after defeating Yan Lingxue, Gu Qingfeng had long acquired her profound meaning of reincarnation, so he understood her reincarnation very well.
"You and Yan Lingxue are essentially the same person, just a relationship between past and present lives. Your past life lived for endless years, while how much life experience does the present Yan Lingxue have? When the two of you merged, naturally your personality and memories took dominance. It can be understood that the present Yan Lingxue suddenly gained an epoch's worth of experience. People change with the passage of time and the increase of experience, which is why you have become what you are now.
The reason you are pretending is simply because you don't want to be exorcised again, am I right or wrong?"
Yan Lingxue's expression completely changed, but she still didn't believe it. Just as she was about to retort, Gu Qingfeng glanced at her. A dark light flickered in his eyes, and the endless mysteries of reincarnation faintly appeared.
"How did you also comprehend the profound meaning of reincarnation!!"
Gu Qingfeng smiled faintly: "Reincarnation? Merely a minor Dao."
A stormy sea surged within Yan Lingxue's heart.
"Speak, what is the realm above the Immortal King? And your origins. I suggest you confess honestly and don't force this Emperor to get rough."
Yan Lingxue was silent for a long time before finally speaking slowly: "Just as I said before, I am someone who survived from the previous epoch. In this heaven and earth, whenever an epoch comes to an end, the Epoch Tribulation will occur. Under the Epoch Tribulation, all things come to an end, and everything returns to chaos."
Gu Qingfeng frowned slightly: "Isn't the Eternal True World eternally indestructible?"
Yan Lingxue said faintly: "It is eternally indestructible. The Epoch Tribulation destroys us, not the Eternal True World."
"Jie jie jie... Now this is truly somewhat interesting."

【Prologue: The Beginning of It All – Use holy water to heal the saintess tainted by demonic energy, then converse with her.】 Shen Nian stared at his older sister sipping yogurt, lost in thought. So you’re telling me my sister is the saintess, and yogurt is the holy water? 【Main Quest 1: Brave Youth, Become an Adventurer! Reward: Rookie Adventurer Title.】 【Side Quest 1: Find the Adorable Kitty!

Titles even boost stats? Is this for real? (A lighthearted, absurd campus comedy—not a revenge power fantasy.)

end. Thus one must continue to cultivate, and become a saint or great emperor, in order to prolong one's life. Chen Xia, however, completely reversed this. Since his transmigration, he has gained immortality, and also a system that awards him with attribute points for every year he lives. Thus between the myriad worlds, the legend of an unparalleled senior appeared. "A gentleman takes revenge; it is never too late even after ten thousand years." "When you were at your peak I yielded, now in your old age I shall trample on you." - Chen Xia

ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!

transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day! Take one disciple: every day he gains 1 year of cultivation power. While others struggle through a year of bitter training, he gets the same just by sleeping through a single night. Take ten disciples: every day he gains 10 years of cultivation power. Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul—he breezes through all bottlenecks without lifting a finger. Take one hundred disciples: every day he gains 100 years of cultivation power. Even a Soul Transformation Venerable before him can’t survive a single blow. Take ten thousand disciples: every day he gains 10,000 years of cultivation power! With a wave of his hand, he topples empires. With a single step, he crushes the sacred grounds of the universe. ... While others fight tooth and nail for secret techniques, Lin Yan casually hands out Nascent Soul-level cultivation manuals as beginner textbooks. While others strain to find talented recruits, Lin Yan opens his doors to anyone—so long as they’re human. In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”
