The Collapse of Mo Lingxuan

The girls all ran off at once.

Yu Wan'er, Long Qianqiu, and the others led the charge, even kidnapping the few kittens from Jiang Che's house.

"No way! I'm not going! I'll stay at home and keep watch for my husband," Mo Lianxing appeared and said.

"We'll stay too!" Xue'er and the other little mermaids stood out in unison. This was an absolutely great opportunity.

With all the sisters gone, wouldn't Jiang Che belong solely to them?

Furthermore, Jiang Che had so many beautiful maids around him. If some little vixen managed to climb the ranks while they were away, they would end up with another competitor.

...

Soon, the Immortal Herb Garden became quiet once again. Even Yaoyao had run out to play.

In the corner.

A young girl in plain clothes crouched on a small stool in the herb garden, her long red hair tied back. This daughter of the Demon Venerable had lost her former arrogance. She had been here weeding and taking care of these spiritual herbs for a very long time!

Mo Lingxuan didn't even know how long she had been here herself. It had probably been a thousand years.

That's right, a thousand years!

Not long ago, in order to accelerate the growth of these immortal herbs, Jiang Che had directly purchased a super immortal formation from the system shop: the Chaotic Time Ruin Immortal Formation!

It was an immortal formation that could compress the flow of time. After enveloping the Immortal Herb Garden, ten thousand days inside the garden equaled just one day outside!

It extracted the value of the immortal and divine herbs with maximum efficiency.

Mo Lingxuan knew this was Jiang Che punishing her for stealing his immortal peach, but she truly knew she was wrong now. Working diligently in the Immortal Herb Garden for over a thousand years had smoothed out all her rough edges. Moreover, the divine herbs here all had bad tempers, and she had to serve them like they were lords.

Every midnight, she would wipe away her tears alone. Her cultivation hadn't advanced an inch, and her temperament had changed from arrogant and domineering at the beginning to extremely insecure.

When those girls came to play in the Immortal Herb Garden earlier, she didn't even dare to show her face, afraid that she might anger them and they would complain about her to Jiang Che.

Thinking of this, bitterness welled up in Mo Lingxuan's heart again, and tears filled her eyes. She wondered how her father was doing.

Looking back, her past life was indeed terrible. She had caused a lot of trouble, but her father had always been there to clean up her messes...

Right at this moment, a figure appeared in front of her, dressed in a black robe.

The young girl slowly raised her eyes. The moment she saw Jiang Che, she was a bit dumbfounded. "Who... who are you?"

That's right, Mo Lingxuan no longer recognized Jiang Che.

She hadn't seen Jiang Che many times to begin with, and having been locked up in the Immortal Herb Garden for a thousand years, Jiang Che's face had become very blurry in her memory.

But after looking him up and down, a memory from the depths of her soul surged out!

"Young Master Jiang!"

After recognizing Jiang Che, Mo Lingxuan suffered an emotional breakdown and threw herself directly at Jiang Che's legs.

Jiang Che: "..."

To be honest, he was actually startled!

"Young Master Jiang, I know I was wrong. Please don't make me stay here anymore, okay? I'll do anything you ask!!!"

Mo Lingxuan cried like a rain-battered pear blossom, her emotions completely breaking down.

"Uh..." Jiang Che frowned. It had only been a month or so... Wait, no!

Jiang Che suddenly remembered that he had set up a time formation in his Immortal Herb Garden, a super formation to accelerate the ripening of the immortal herbs.

The flow of time inside the garden and the outside world was worlds apart. While only a month or so had passed outside, it seemed that inside the garden... thousands of years had passed???

Holy crap, this definitely wasn't on purpose. He had genuinely forgotten!

Originally, he only planned to lock her up for a few days to tame the little demoness's arrogance. But damn it... the Five Elements Immortal Emperor's quintuplet daughters were simply too attractive, and halfway through, the White Fox Immortal Venerable Bai Susu appeared, and then he had to go save Gu Wantang... This series of little episodes had kept Young Master Jiang incredibly busy.

And then... he forgot about this girl, Mo Lingxuan.

Locking someone up for over a thousand years straight really made him feel a bit embarrassed!

Looking at Mo Lingxuan, who was hugging his thigh and frantically repenting, Jiang Che's mouth twitched. He couldn't possibly admit that he had made a mistake, right?

"As long as you know you were wrong," Jiang Che said in a flat tone.

Mo Lingxuan raised her tearful head, looking extremely pitiful, her small face even a little dirty.

Jiang Che sighed. He was the kind of person who just couldn't stand seeing girls cry, especially beautiful girls.

Look at what the little demoness had been reduced to.

"Then... then can you let me out? I can do anything!" After a moment of thought, Mo Lingxuan mustered her courage and reached out to tug at the strap of her clothes, revealing half of her snow-white, jade-like shoulder in an attempt to seduce Jiang Che.

Jiang Che: "..."

You're using this to test a cadre? What cadre could withstand this kind of test?

Jiang Che didn't say anything; he just picked Mo Lingxuan up in his arms.

Not long after Jiang Che left, the spiritual herbs in the Immortal Herb Garden started chattering.

"We're doomed, we're doomed! Holy crap... that little demoness has climbed the ranks!!!"

"It's over! I made her water me with spiritual spring water every day, exactly a thousand and one drops. Now that she's climbed the ranks... aren't I totally screwed?"

"Haha, well I never bullied her. My smart self saw through it all from the start. Even if a concubine is temporarily sent to the cold palace, she's still a concubine! Bullying her... isn't that just seeking death?"

Meanwhile, aboard the Bright Moon Immortal Boat, the Heavenly Fox Immortal Venerable Bai Susu slowly stretched her back, revealing her snow-white waist. Her fair skin looked supple and hydrated, and eight fox tails curled around her, making her look exceptionally beautiful and captivating under the moonlit sky.

"What a headache-inducing bunch of girls."

Bai Susu sighed. She had, of course, noticed that quite a few of the girls had sneaked out.

But these girls were not easy to stop worrying about, so she simply split off eight external avatars to secretly follow and protect them.

In terms of cultivation, she was the strongest among all of Jiang Che's women—a Five-Tribulation Immortal Venerable... an existence that had once grasped the Great Dao's origin.

Most importantly, she was very leisurely. Because her immortal dao origin was terrifyingly powerful, while Jiang Che's cultivation base was very low, if they engaged in Yin-Yang dual cultivation... Jiang Che would explode and die in minutes. Faced with this situation, she also felt quite helpless.

"Jiang Che is truly a strange man! His cultivation is so low, yet his status is so high?" Bai Susu muttered to herself.

She vaguely remembered that a few months ago, she had tried to use the Great Dao Marriage Stone to bind her and Jiang Che's fate together, but ended up failing miserably.

Failing wasn't scary; what was scary was that Jiang Che really embodied the phrase dying under the peony flower. He exploded and died thousands of times, constantly dying and then resurrecting right in front of her... She had almost been scared silly at the time!

From a certain perspective, Jiang Che was the most persistent person she had ever met, bar none!
