The Entire Sect is Full of Villains, Yet the Junior Sister Conquers All

“Kneel down, don’t you know your mistake!”

“Your little junior sister is so innocent, cruelly pushed down the cliff by you. Now she’s severely injured, her life hanging in the balance… Have you treated all the teachings of our sect as mere wind in your ears?”

“I’ll ask you one last time, why did you instigate Xixue to go to the forbidden area? Confess the truth!”

In the great hall, the elders’ stern rebukes were deafening.

Chu Sang had just opened her eyes, not yet fully grasping the scene before her. A hoarse defense, thick with the taste of blood, escaped her lips like a remnant of muscle memory before she could fully comprehend, “I’m not wrong!”

“Wicked disciple, you still dare to quibble!”

The man in white robes, cold and otherworldly, finally lost his temper. With a wave of his sleeve, he sent her flying tens of meters.

Boom! Chu Sang’s body slammed hard into a stone pillar. “Puh!” A mouthful of fresh blood spewed out, staining half of her snow-white robe. Her black hair was in disarray, looking utterly wretched.

“Cough cough…”

It was this pain that awakened her as if from a dream. She had actually come back again!

Chu Sang was originally the second senior sister of the Tianyan Sect, but by some twist of fate, she had transmigrated to modern times and read a Mary Sue dog-blood novel, only to discover that she was just a cannon fodder female supporting character in this book.

“Delicate Little Junior Sister: All the Big Shots in the Cultivation World Are Head Over Heels for Me”—this vulgar yet eye-catching title was enough to illustrate the overall tone of the story. The female protagonist, Qin Xixue, was the pampered little junior sister of the Tianyan Sect, a once-in-a-century fire spirit root prodigy. She could casually pick up thousand-year-old celestial herbs, divine beasts and spiritual treasures rushed to form contracts with her, and she had multiple identities, excelling in both sword cultivation and alchemy.

A classic setup of a brainless, face-slapping cultivation fantasy with multiple identities, Qin Xixue was the epitome of a dog-blood Mary Sue.

While engaged in a forbidden romance with her cold and aloof master, she was also involved in an interspecies love chase with the young lord of the demon race. Even the cold and abstinent Demon Lord would blush and pin her against the wall to kiss her… Even the head disciple of the Tianyan Sect succumbed to the female lead’s charm, going so far as to kill his childhood sweetheart and fiancée for her sake.

As luck would have it, Chu Sang was this fiancée, doubling as a tool to highlight the female lead’s beauty, kindness, and virtues—a great wronged person.

Last night, she discovered the little junior sister sneaking out. As the second senior sister of the Tianyan Sect, Chu Sang was naturally worried that Qin Xixue might encounter danger, so she had to follow and take a look.

But she discovered that the little junior sister had actually snuck into the forbidden area of the Tianyan Sect!

Legend had it that ten thousand years ago, the cultivation world and the demon race had an unprecedented great war. This place was the burial ground for countless cultivators from that war. Not only were there legacy treasures left behind by great masters, but the forbidden area also sealed many unimaginable evil spirits and demons.

Even the Sect Leader and elders didn’t dare to approach the forbidden area casually, let alone allow disciples to enter.

But last night, the little junior sister seemed possessed, insisting on going. Unable to dissuade her, Chu Sang had no choice but to accompany her.

Unexpectedly, as soon as they reached the forbidden area, Qin Xixue jumped off the cliff. The elders, hearing the alarm bells of the forbidden area’s formation being triggered, rushed over just in time to witness this scene. Without distinguishing right from wrong, they firmly believed that Chu Sang had pushed Qin Xixue down.

After Qin Xixue was rescued, she was barely clinging to life. No matter how many spirit pills and elixirs were fed to her, she showed no signs of waking up, and her situation looked grim.

Chu Sang sighed. How could the mighty female lead possibly die? This was a great opportunity for the protagonist.

In the forbidden area, she obtained a jade tablet containing the remnant soul of an old white-bearded master, laying a solid foundation for the female lead’s future phoenix-proud-of-heaven storyline.

And Chu Sang was just a great wronged person taking the blame. She was once the center of attention in the Tianyan Sect, a fire spirit root genius who had reached the late stage of Qi Condensation at the age of twelve, just one step away from breaking through to Foundation Establishment.

But three years ago, she was injured and fell into a coma during a sect mission. When she woke up, she found that her spirit root was damaged and she could no longer cultivate, becoming useless.

A favored child of heaven fallen to dust, subject to cold stares. She became self-conscious and timid because of this, and only her master Chang Yu and the newly arrived little junior sister treated her the same as always.

Back then, Chu Sang didn’t know the truth and was grateful, especially partial and loving towards the little junior sister. She handed over precious opportunities without hesitation and even bravely competed for the title of “scapegoat.”

This incident was no different from before, with Qin Xixue causing trouble and Chu Sang taking the blame.

Trespassing into the forbidden area was a serious offense, punishable by expulsion from the sect. But if they didn’t punish a disciple, it would lower the elders’ authority. So the truth of the matter was no longer important. She was just a scapegoat that had to be pushed to the forefront of the storm, taking the blame for the sect’s pampered little junior sister, the female lead.

“They both have fire spirit roots and are geniuses, but the little junior sister has already broken through to Foundation Establishment just three years after joining the sect. She’s bound to be one of the top prodigies in the cultivation world in the future!”

“In contrast, the second senior sister has been in the sect for ten years and is still at the late stage of Qi Condensation. She hasn’t made any progress in three years, she’s completely wasted for this lifetime…”

The disciples outside the hall were adding fuel to the fire, some with mockery and jealousy in their words, kicking her while she was down, “No matter how talented she was back then, so what? Now that her spirit root is damaged and she can’t cultivate, she’s just useless, yet still occupying the position of a personal disciple. On what grounds?”

“Little Junior Sister Qin is usually obedient and well-behaved. How could she possibly not know that the forbidden area is strictly off-limits to disciples? How could she possibly trespass into the forbidden area for no reason? And with Chu Sang of all people?”

“It must have been Chu Sang who instigated her in secret!”

“If you ask me, it’s definitely because the second senior sister couldn’t break through to Foundation Establishment herself, so she became resentful of the little junior sister who also has a fire spirit root. That’s why she took this opportunity to lure the innocent little junior sister to the forbidden area and even pushed her off the cliff!”

Some disciples sympathized, “But the second senior sister is also pitiful. She was also a once-in-a-century supreme fire spirit root, the sect’s most promising genius. Three years ago, at just twelve, she had already broken through to the grand perfection of late-stage Qi Condensation, even faster than the little junior sister. If it weren’t for that accident three years ago… sigh…”

Those in the know only said that the vicissitudes of life are unpredictable.

Someone exclaimed in surprise, continuing, “Come to think of it, it’s quite a coincidence. After the little junior sister joined the sect, she was also tested to have a supreme fire spirit root. She was in the limelight, and even broke through to Foundation Establishment before Chu Sang.”

“This… anyone would feel unbalanced, right…”

Immediately, a disciple retorted with a cold snort, “Jealousy shouldn’t be a reason for harming a fellow disciple. Such a malicious person should be expelled from the sect! To serve as a warning to others!”

The crowd’s accusing and disgusted gazes all fell on the blood-covered young woman kneeling in the great hall.

The Sect Leader’s face grew increasingly grim as he sternly rebuked, “Let’s not even mention that you two went to the forbidden area together, why is it that only Xixue was injured? Yet you’re unscathed?”

“As a senior sister, you should have the responsibility to look after your junior sister. Why didn’t you stop her at the time?”

Not fulfilling her duty as a senior sister, no matter what, it was her fault. There was no way to defend herself.

A corner of an exquisitely cloud-patterned moon-white robe floated past Chu Sang’s eyes. She looked up, wiping the blood from her lips, “Master…”

The man before her, looking only in his early twenties, was the youngest elder of the Tianyan Sect, Immortal Lord Chang Yu. Not yet fifty, he had already reached the Nascent Soul stage. He was the master of both her and Qin Xixue, and also one of the harem members who would start a forbidden master-disciple romance with Qin Xixue.

His secretly beloved little disciple was now between life and death, and the culprit was right before his eyes. It was evident that Chang Yu was struggling to contain himself. His hand inside his sleeve was clenched tightly, bone-white, and that cold, otherworldly handsome face could barely conceal his anger, “Obstinate and rebellious, difficult to tame. If you confess the truth, I can give you a lenient punishment.”

His voice was like shattered jade striking a pearl tray, beautiful but cold and unfeeling.

Kneeling in the great hall, Chu Sang’s knees were painfully rubbed raw. Her throat was dry and hoarse, mixed with an iron-like taste of blood. The pain from the intertwining of two sets of memories in her mind was also unbearable, making it difficult for her throat to produce coherent sounds.

The Sect Leader and all the elders thought she was about to confess, and solemnly said, “Disciple Chu Sang, disregarding sect rules and trespassing into the forbidden area, harming a fellow disciple, according to sect regulations, should be punished with thirty lashes of the soul-scourging whip, and expelled from the…”

“Wait.”

Chang Yu frowned, interrupting coldly.

He looked down at the silent young woman, pursing his lips and speaking faintly, “If you’re willing to admit your mistake, I can give you a lighter punishment considering our past master-disciple relationship. Fifteen lashes of the soul-scourging whip, and three months of solitary confinement for reflection. Are you willing?”

It wasn’t a question, but a condescending offer, waiting for the young woman to express gratitude.

Chu Sang laughed coldly in her heart. Acting so righteous, isn’t he just not wanting to let go of his “free blood bank”?

For some unknown reason, her blood had always had a very significant therapeutic effect on Qin Xixue’s body.

In the original story, it was because of this incident that after enduring fifteen soul lashes, she was at death’s door and then confined for three months on the steep and extremely cold Reflection Cliff. She fell into a coma, and Chang Yu took advantage of this to secretly take her heart blood and give it to the female lead to drink.

The next day, the female lead’s injuries recovered completely, and not long after, she even awakened a trace of the legendary primordial qi. From then on, her cultivation path was smooth sailing, envied by all.

As for her, with her spirit root damaged, severely injured, and her heart blood taken, she became a completely useless and injured waste. Just as she turned into a vicious female antagonist, she was run through with a sword by her childhood sweetheart and fiancé, the senior brother, dying miserably in a mass grave and being eaten by wild wolves.

So, the reason why her master, whom she had revered since childhood, picked her up and brought her into the sect, and the sect’s painstaking teachings for ten years, was all just to raise her like a pig, fattening her up for slaughter!

Damn it, she wanted to leave the mountain!

Stay away from the female lead and her extreme bootlickers, and embrace a good life!

Chu Sang made up her mind. Suppressing the bloody taste in her throat, she looked at the white-robed man before her, whose expression was indifferent, and spoke with a hoarse voice, “Master.”

Everyone’s gaze fell on her.

Chang Yu’s eyes flickered slightly.

“Perhaps, this is the last time I’ll call you Master.” She leaned against the wall, standing up shakily, and then, in front of everyone, took off the blood-stained robe that symbolized her status as a personal disciple.

She threw it on the ground.

“All these years, Master’s heart has always been on the little junior sister and senior brother, and you haven’t given me anything good. The sect missions I’ve done daily should be enough to repay Master and the sect for the nurturing these many years… Oh right, my mission points were previously recorded on the little junior sister’s jade tablet. If you don’t believe me, you can go check, it’s all recorded in the jade tablet.”

She threw the identity jade tablet that had been with her for ten years on the ground with a thud, “Chu Sang is willing to be expelled from the sect, without any complaints!”

Then, under everyone’s gaze, she extended her right hand towards the slightly stunned Chang Yu, bent four fingers, with the middle finger pointing 180 degrees downward,

“Stupid fool, bye-bye to you!”

Leaving these words behind, she turned and fled from the great hall, heading straight down the mountain. She showed no sign of sadness, and how did she even seem happy?

The hall was momentarily silent. Everyone was utterly shocked that Chu Sang had actually voluntarily given up her status as a personal disciple.

How foolish!

And what did her last words mean? No one understood, but for some reason, they all felt a sense of humiliation, as if they had been insulted??

On the other side, a young man in black robes tensed his eyes, instinctively taking a step to follow, but was coldly stopped by Chang Yu, “Qingchen.”

Mo Qingchen’s feet seemed to weigh a thousand pounds. He tightened his fist, withdrew his gaze and lowered his head, muttering, “But, Master, junior sister she…”

The crowd turned their attention to the young man, all feeling regretful.

Mo Qingchen was the most talented sword cultivator prodigy in the cultivation world in a hundred years, and he also had an extremely pure variant ice spirit root. At just eighteen, he had already broken through to the late stage of Foundation Establishment, and it would only take a few months to break through to Golden Core.

Such talent even surpassed Elder Chang Yu in his youth.

Unfortunately, such a dazzling prodigy had been bound to an engagement since childhood, making the Sect Leaders, elders, and clan patriarchs who had beloved daughters sigh in regret.

This fiancée was none other than Chu Sang, who had just been expelled from the sect.

Originally, they were both prodigies, and this marriage could be considered a well-matched union. But now Chu Sang had long since become a useless person who couldn’t cultivate, naturally unworthy of Mo Qingchen.

Their different talents determined their future disparity like that between clouds and mud, and also determined that they would not be people of the same world in the future.

However, Mo Qingchen had been reluctant to break off the engagement. But observant people could see that in recent years, the relationship between Mo Qingchen and Chu Sang was no longer as close as before, even to the point of being described as strangers. On the contrary, the sect’s newly arrived genius little junior sister Qin Xixue had been getting closer to Mo Qingchen.

Who wouldn’t say that two talented and beautiful celestial prodigies of equal standing were a perfect match when seen together?

Mo Qingchen felt utterly conflicted. He absentmindedly picked up the jade tablet from the ground and gripped it tightly.

He and Chu Sang had been childhood sweethearts, innocent playmates who entered the sect together… In his impression, his gentle and elegant junior sister had seemed to always cause trouble since the little junior sister arrived. Her temperament had also become strange and solitary. Just now, she even disrespected the master in front of so many people. Last night, she actually trespassed into the forbidden area. Could it be that she really pushed Qin Xixue down?

He really couldn’t understand her anymore.

“Her behavior has become increasingly reckless in recent years. Today she dares to trespass into the forbidden area, tomorrow she might dare to trespass into a demon’s lair. If we don’t teach her a lesson, I’m afraid she’ll stumble even more severely on her path!”

Having been publicly humiliated, the proud Chang Yu couldn’t quite save face. He coldly sneered, “It’s time to correct her bad temper. Everything I do is for her own good. You should be able to understand your master’s good intentions, right?”

“…Yes, disciple understands.”

Chang Yu’s eyes turned cold as he pondered. Chu Sang was penniless and had no relatives to rely on. It would be difficult for her to make a living outside.

“Don’t bother about her. She will come back.”

“Did you get the Xuanling Jade Fungus?” Chang Yu remembered an important matter, showing rare urgency.

Mo Qingchen nodded absent-mindedly. In an angle unseen by others, he concealed the jade tablet in his storage ring and took out a wooden box. Inside the box was the ten-thousand-year-old Xuanling Jade Fungus obtained from the Demon Ravine.

The Demon Ravine was the territory of the demon race. One can imagine the countless hardships the young man had endured. His arm now bore several blood-stained gashes entwined with black qi, deep enough to see bone, a horrifying sight.

“Not bad.”

Chang Yu was very satisfied. He took the wooden box and gave him a bottle of healing medicine. “Come with me to visit your little junior sister.”

However, Mo Qingchen gazed deeply at the hall’s entrance for a long while before withdrawing his gaze and stepping forward to follow Chang Yu to the Cui Yu Pavilion.
