"UUUUUUUUUUUGHHHHHH" Cang Yue only felt an intense pain all over her body. She wanted to grab that handle and pull out the sword, but the moment her hand reached in front of her chest, she was stunned to discover that the sword had disappeared.

"What the?" She hurriedly took off her robe and the thin cloth covering her breasts, letting those magnificent small rabbits out in the open.

"This..." At the moment, her eyes were stuck in the centre of her chest at the position where her heart was.

At that place, a small black seal was formed in the shape of three swords pointing inwards.

One of the swords was glowing lightly while the other two were still dark.

Just a glance was enough to tell Cang Yue everything she wanted to know.

Like the golden scroll said... If she failed the three trials, she would die.

"Damn it." Cang Yue couldn't help but grit her teeth in anger. She could still vividly remember everything that took place in the illusion.

Her memories were sealed while she was entrusted to such a ridiculous scenario.

The scenario wasn't about her observation skills or her detective work. Instead, it was about her greed.

If her memories weren't sealed, she wouldn't have done such a stupid thing.

Unfortunately for her, though her memories were sealed, her true nature was left unrestricted.

She wasn't any kind of hero or a warrior of justice. She was the saintess of the Duality Sect. One of the Demonic Overlord Sects. It would be a miracle if her true nature were that of a kind and loving person.

She was the type of person who would do as her heart desired, regardless of how others viewed it.

If she liked a treasure, she would snatch it. If she hated someone, she would humiliate and kill them. If she wanted to butcher up a town, she would do it.

She had always followed what her heart desired.

In the trial, she came across the Blood Devouring Art, so her true nature flared up, and she did what her usual self would have done. Even in the real world with her memories intact... if she ever comes across such a miraculous technique, she would unhesitantly choose to practise it and massacre people. It was her true nature... it was what she wanted. She wouldn't feel any regret over it.

"That old hag." Cursing at the old hag for sending her here, Cang Yue glanced at the unconscious Yang Ze beside her before gritting her teeth in anger. She took off his face mask while using the cloth that supported her breasts to wipe his face gently. It had almost become a habit for her now.

"Looks like both of us are going to die here." While wiping his face, she couldn't help but let out a gentle laugh. Were it any other person, they would have been crying and begging to be saved or to exit this damn place. But not her... She was still sitting there leisurely and even had time to joke about it.

After a few minutes, she finally wore the cloth around her breasts. As for the robe... she used it to cover Yang Ze.

Once she was done, she looked around in confusion, wondering what was going to happen next.

And sure enough... the next moment, a golden light once again enveloped his vision before she lost consciousness for the second time.

-------------

"Senior sister... senior sister... Wake up." Cang Yue could feel someone shaking her body.

"GO AWAY." Cang Yue was annoyed that someone dared to mess up her sweet sleep. She could only curse while half-asleep.

The other party stopped for a moment before shaking Cang Yue even more vigorously.

"SENIOR SISTER. MASTER HAS SUMMONED YOU."

Upon hearing the word 'Master', Cang Yue immediately jumped in fright before glaring at the girl beside her.

The girl seemed to be eighteen years old... much younger than herself, with a youthful face that was filled with a playful expression. She wasn't excessively beautiful, but she had a pleasant face.

"Hurry." Looking at the dazed Cang Yue, she couldn't help but urge her once again.

"Ugh..." Cang Yue just snorted in displeasure before following behind her.

Walking to the eighth mountain peak where their master was located, Cang Yue couldn't help but feel constant scornful gazes directed towards her. Every time they walked past someone, she could hear their mocking laughter and gazed with ridicule.

"....." She didn't say a word, but just clenched her fists in anger.

After walking like this for ten minutes, they finally reached their destination.

In front of them was a small, exquisite cottage with an old lady tending to the flowers in the garden. This old woman was their master.

"You are here." Their master didn't even glance back before speaking further. "Took your sweet time to come here."

Cang Yue just clenched her fists. She wanted to say something, but before she could even speak a word, the girl beside her immediately jumped forward with a smile.

"Senior sister was tired after her practice, so she was sleeping."

Their master finally turned around, revealing the ordinary face of an old woman in her seventies with wrinkles.

The old woman first gently stroked the girl's head before gazing deeply at Cang Yue.

"What practice? With your trash qualification, no matter how hard you practise, you would never make any progress. Why now just accept your fate and get out of the sect?"

"You have embarrassed me enough."

"..." Cang Yue didn't reply but clenched her fists tightly while biting her lips.

"It was a mistake for me to accept you as a personal disciple. I thought you were something special because you managed to win the tournament. But you..."

"You are nothing more than trash."

"Look at your junior sister."

"Compared to her, you are not even worthy to carry her shoes."

Cang Yue just kept her head down. It had almost become a habit by now. She joined the Heavenly Dao Sect twenty years ago. She clawed her way from the very bottom to the personal disciple of one of the elders.

Even though her cultivation speed was nothing special, it was more than enough to meet the standards of the Elder.

But after the young girl beside her worshipped the elder as her master, too, her life became hell.

Compared to her, the girl's cultivation speed was simply heaven-defying. In less than a year, she made alarming progress.

Even their master was impressed by her.

But what was fortunate for her master and the young girl was unfortunate for Cang Yue.

Every day, she was compared to her junior sister. Every day, she would be ridiculed.

Even her master didn't hesitate to call her trash in front of the entire sect.

As for her so-called junior sister. She didn't seem to care about it at all in the slightest. She even added fuel to the fire, often making Cang Yue look even more useless.

"Hmph!" The old woman just let out a cold snort before taking out two tokens from her pocket.

"Take these." Throwing them towards her two disciples, she continued to speak. "This is the entrance to the secret realm. Your master went through great lengths to acquire them for you."

"Don't disappoint me."

Even though she seemed to be talking to both of them, her gaze was fixated towards Cang Yue.

"Thank you, master. This disciple will remember your grace." Cang Yue only gave her a polite bow before turning around and leaving the place.

"Hmph! Bitch." It wasn't until she left the peak that she spat out in disgust. She looked at the mountain peak as if she could still see the figure of her so-called junior-sister talking to her so-called master.

---------------

After a few hours, both Cang Yue and her junior sister made their way towards the secret realm.

During the entire time, the young girl beside Cang Yue kept on chattering.

"Senior sister, how did you manage to win the tournament? Did you cheat your way through it?"

"Senior sister, how did master accept you? Did you perhaps use your connections?"

"Senior sister, how did you manage to only progress a few minor realms even after such a long time? Did you not get the resources?"

"Senior sister..."

"Senior sister..."

Cang Yue didn't speak a word, but the coldness in her eyes only increased.

Once the two of them finally reached the secret realm, they took out their tokens before a flash of light enveloped their bodies, and they found themselves in an empty area.

"We should split to find more treasures." The young girl beside Cang Yue immediately jumped in excitement as she rushed in the opposite direction.

Cang Yue just let out a cold snort before she went in a different direction.

For the next five days, she kept on roaming around. Sometimes she came across precious herbs, sometimes she was ambushed by the demonic beasts, and sometimes she was attacked by different cultivators.

On the evening of the sixth day, as she was roaming around carefully, searching for more treasures that an earth-shattering roar sounded in her ears.

"This?" She didn't hesitate before rushing in that direction. It was the desperate roar of the Fire Ape, which seemed to be at its last breath.

After some twists and turns, Cang Yue finally arrived at the place where the Fire Ape was fighting a young girl, barely eighteen.

"Huh!?" Looking at the familiar figure of her so-called junior sister, Cang Yue couldn't help but narrow her eyes.

She quietly observed from a distance. The Fire Ape seemed to be at a disadvantage. If this fight went on, it would definitely die.

Without any hesitation, Cang Yue took out a small exquisite red pear from her robe before throwing it towards the Fire Ape.

It was one of the most precious medicines she found during her time here. A Scarlet Pear.

Initially, she wanted to use it to breakthrough to the next realm, but now...

The Fire Ape seemed to sense the presence of the Scarlet Pear as it roared in excitement before opening its mouth and swallowing it in a single go.

"Not good." The young girl only exclaimed in terror as she tried to retreat, but before she could take another step back, she felt a sharp weapon aimed at her abdomen.

In desperation, she could only use her hand to block it.

"AAAAH!" The moment the thin needle pierced her palm, she couldn't help but let out a cry of pain while looking in disbelief at Cang Yue, who was standing there with a smile on her face.

"Serves you right." Cang Yue sneered in response before taking out another needle from her robe, intending to pierce the young girl's head with it.

The young girl who was caught between the Fire Ape's attack and Cang Yue's needle could only cry out in desperation as the two made contact with her body.

And after that...

"Ugh..." Cang Yue once again opened her eyes inside the ruins, only to hear the familiar emotionless words.

[Vengeful Heart... Excessive Resentment.]

[Failed the trial of Jealousy.]

And with that, another translucent sword plunged into her heart, making her squeal like an animal in anguish.
