Don't Blame the Senior Brother for Not Being Human, It's Just That the Junior Brother Is Too Irresistible...

"Su Jiu, Su Jiu, don't blame your senior brother for being heartless. It's just that the opportunity is too tempting..."

The Contribution Hall of the Love-Longing Sect wasn't too far from Su Ji's residence.

Along the way, Su Ji saw many fellow disciples in a hurry.

Some had distorted and fanatical expressions on their faces, muttering something inaudible.

Some looked absent-minded and just walked mechanically.

There was even a female disciple leaning against a crooked tree by the road, giggling stupidly at the air. Her "giggle, giggle" laughter was extremely creepy.

Su Ji felt a chill down his neck.

He couldn't see the slightest connection between this sect and love - longing.

...

Before long, the somewhat imposing gateway of the Contribution Hall came into view.

There was a bit more liveliness here.

Disciples were coming in and out. Most of them looked normal, and their occasional conversations were only about tasks and sect contribution points.

Su Ji composed himself and walked in.

Inside the Contribution Hall, several deacon disciples were sitting behind long desks handling affairs.

Su Ji found a deacon disciple who looked a bit kinder and asked in a low voice, "Senior brother, excuse me... How can I rate the junior sister who helped me break through?"

The deacon disciple didn't even lift his head and pointed to a jade tablet beside him. "Send your spiritual sense into it, find the corresponding task record, and then you can rate it. You can give a good, medium, or bad rating. The sect won't interfere."

Just to be safe, Su Ji asked one more question. "If I give a bad rating, will she get angry and...?"

The deacon disciple looked a bit impatient. "Naturally, she can't. Otherwise, what's the point of having ratings?"

Well, this answer was as Su Ji expected.

Before he could breathe a sigh of relief, the deacon disciple frowned and added, "At least within the sect, she can't."

Su Ji: ...

After thinking about it carefully, it was actually normal.

Outside the sect, if a newly - promoted Qi - Refining disciple died, the sect wouldn't bother to investigate.

That was a bit tricky. He originally planned to trick Su Jiu into taking him out of the sect and then get rid of her and run away.

From then on, he could be as free as a bird in the sky.

The plan had changed.

But the problem wasn't too big.

Su Ji came to the jade tablet. As a newly - promoted Qi - Refining disciple, his spiritual sense couldn't leave his body.

He could only touch it with his hand and send his meager spiritual sense into it.

It took him a little while to find the record of his previous request for help in breaking through to the Qi - Refining stage.

Sure enough, there was a rating option below the record.

Although he felt that the style of this world was a bit strange, Su Ji didn't hesitate at all and directly clicked on "Bad".

He even wanted to write a few hundred words of reasons for the bad rating, but there was no such function on the jade tablet. He could only choose good, medium, or bad.

After doing all this, just as Su Ji was about to leave, he caught a glimpse of a disciple beside him from the corner of his eye.

It was a male disciple, thin in build, with an overly pale face and sunken eye sockets.

"Register a task,"

"Search for a Yin Ghost Grass..."

"This is the best puppet material that can be obtained during the Foundation - Establishment stage. It can keep the corpse intact for a hundred years. She will definitely like it... For her, I'm willing to do anything..."

The male disciple murmured to himself, his voice filled with a sickly infatuation.

Su Ji seemed to understand a bit...

Damn it...

He had really struck it lucky.

This was the "Yandere Sect"!

Su Ji didn't dare to stay any longer and quickly left the Contribution Hall.

When he returned to his shabby little wooden house, he finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Now, he just had to wait and see what Su Jiu's reaction would be.

Normally, being given a bad rating would make one a bit unhappy.

If Su Jiu came to his door aggressively, he had to be prepared.

It seemed that it was time to test his ability to talk his way out of trouble...

However, half a day passed.

It was already evening.

Su Jiu showed no sign of coming.

Su Ji began to feel restless.

It wouldn't be a big problem to delay his cultivation consolidation for a day or two after breaking through to the Qi - Refining stage.

So, why hadn't Su Jiu come yet? This didn't make sense...

"Knock, knock, knock."

Just when Su Ji was about to find another way, the knock on the door finally sounded.

Su Ji jumped up from the bed board in a start.

She's here!

He walked to the door and pretended not to know. "Who is it?"

"Su Jiu."

The soft and waxy voice still came from outside the door.

Su Ji hesitated for a moment and then opened the bolt.

If the other party really wanted to use force, this wooden door wouldn't stop her.

Outside the door, Su Jiu stood gracefully.

She was still wearing a red dress.

However, the angry look he had expected didn't appear.

There was even a faint smile on her face.

... It was a bit eerie.

This reaction made Su Ji not know what to say for a moment. "Junior sister Su Jiu, you..."

Su Jiu asked softly, "Senior brother Su Ji, I heard that you gave me a bad rating?"

Her tone was so gentle, as if she was asking about the weather today.

Su Ji's heart skipped a beat.

This reaction was too strange!

Could she be hiding a knife behind her smile?

[When talking to Su Jiu, since the target meets your aesthetic standards, a romance option is triggered.]

[Option 1: Flatly deny it and say that it's definitely a mistake made by the deacon disciple in the Contribution Hall. (Reward: A disdainful smile from Su Jiu)]

[Option 2: Admit it frankly and say that she was trying to sell pills after he broke through and had other motives. (Reward: A disdainful smile from Su Jiu)]

[Option 3: Pretend to be wronged and say that you didn't do it on purpose. It was just that you were distracted at that time and accidentally clicked on the bad rating. Then ask if there's a chance to make up for it. (Reward: A disdainful smile from Su Jiu)]

[Permanent option: Sacrifice your meager life to my supreme swordsmanship! (Current kill count: 0)]

This girl is really hard to deal with.

If he could beat her, Su Ji really wanted to sacrifice her to his sword.

...

Her name is Su Jiu.

As you can see, she is a very ordinary human cultivator...

No way.

In fact, she is a Nine - Tailed Heavenly Fox.

As for the fox mask?

It's very simple. The more she acts like this, the less likely her fellow disciples will associate her with a fox spirit.

And the burden on her shoulders is heavier than anyone else's.

Anyone.

Because...

This world is sick.

Why do we say so?

You'll know soon.

...

How soon?

Three!

Two!

One!

A heavy and somewhat ethereal voice sounded in both Su Ji's and Su Jiu's ears at the same time.

[By the mandate of heaven: You have received an invitation to a Heavenly Secret Realm.]

[Do you accept the invitation?]

Before Su Ji could react, Su Jiu's figure slowly disappeared from his sight.

Su Ji was a bit hesitant about whether to follow or not. A secret realm was an opportunity, but if he couldn't grasp it, it would be a disaster...

He had heard some information about the "Heavenly Secret Realm" in a half - understood way.

Some secret realms were about competing in strength, while others had all kinds of strange problems.

So, even as a newly - promoted Qi - Refining disciple, he still had a chance to take a risk.

But... It was too dangerous...

Just then.

The four options that had been floating above Su Jiu's head fell directly to the ground and shattered into pieces.

It was as if they were mocking Su Ji's futile struggle.

The predetermined fate was unchangeable.

Su Ji looked down at his...

Bullshit!

What the hell is danger! If he didn't get his blood up now, he would regret it later.

Even if he died in the secret realm, it would be a way to change the predetermined fate.

There was a saying in his hometown on Blue Star.

Even in death, a man should face the sky!

"Accept."

Su Ji's figure also slowly disappeared in the wooden house.

At this moment, Su Jiu, who was in the Heavenly Dao Secret Realm, pulled down the fox mask hanging on the side of her little head.

Red clothes are good for hiding blood!

Masks are good for hiding one's identity!

She came well - prepared.

Su Jiu knew what was inside this secret realm.

What followed would be nothing but killing!

In the end, only one person would be able to break out of this secret realm alive.

Those who got out afterwards would all be corpses.

However, some cultivators might have means left by their elders to seek revenge...

Then, Su Jiu took a step forward. Who would have thought that she bumped right into Su Ji's chest, who suddenly appeared.

A sense of unbelievable absurdity welled up in Su Jiu's heart.

Because, this was supposed to be a single - person entrance!

And with Su Ji's strength, he was doomed to die in this secret realm.

Rather than wasting his life in vain, it would be better for him to give the quota to her.

Of course, she wouldn't take this quota for free.

The method to help Su Ji break through the Qi - Refining stage was a special inheritance of the Nine - Tailed Heavenly Fox Clan, which could briefly increase a person's luck.

Of course, the actual effect varied from person to person.

It could be regarded as compensation for her snatching the secret realm qualification.

Otherwise, with Su Ji's talent, how could he have such good fortune? Judging from his surprised reaction at that time, he must have obtained a purple destiny, but he was just being guarded against her and hiding his true ability.

As a result, he even gave himself a bad review while trying to deceive himself.

But all these were not the point. She didn't care.

What she cared about was... Why could Su Ji still enter the secret realm? Which link went wrong?

Wait a minute?

Could it be...

Because she wasn't considered a human?!
