    In the Small Study, Ji Li’s small round face was flushed red with embarrassment.


    After a long struggle, she finally managed to say, “Young Elder.”


    The reason she found it hard to speak was mainly because she had previously harbored some inappropriate thoughts about Lu Xun.


    Seizing him to use as a human furnace, wasn’t that an inappropriate thought?


    Now, the object of her thoughts had transformed, bing her elder, and several generations removed at that.


    This all happened within a few days!


    Ji Li’s inner thoughts suddenly became veryplicated.


    Of course, her inappropriate thoughts hadn’tpletely disappeared.


    After bullying the weak, Lu Xun’s mood improved significantly.


    Naughty little girl, always trying to seize me to use as a human furnace! Such bad behavior at such a young age!


    After stabilizing his mood, he greeted Mao Nanbei with a warm smile, “Greetings, senior sister!”


    He was thick-skinned, and didn’t care at all.


    After all, Mao Nanbei might act like a child, but who knows how old she actually was.


    For a monster species to change form wasn’t easy; it required a long span of years.


    Without a doubt, she should be several hundred years older than him. Calling her senior sister wasn’t a loss.


    Mao Nanbei pretended to be nonchnt, but her enthusiastically twitching cat ears betrayed her rxed mood.


    She jumped down from the wooden table, her hands folded behind her back. She looked like a condescending superior, but in truth, she appeared more like a precocious child.


    After ncing at Lu Xun, she asked, “Can you walk now?”


    With Lu Xun’s injuries almost healed and his vitality nearly restored, he nodded in response.


    “Thene with me to meet second senior sister.” Mao Nanbei continued, “Master and third senior brother have gone out, the eldest senior brother… let’s not mention him now, he’s rather special, you’ll understand in time. The second senior sister, however, is at home.”


    Perhaps fearing that Lu Xun might be puzzled, she continued, “Second senior sister cannot currently leave the bamboo forest, so she will be there for a while. Just follow me.”


    “Alright.” Lu Xun nodded.


    Despite his calm exterior, there was a surge of emotions in his heart.


    Because up until his journey here, the second senior sister from the Small Study on the back mountain of the Demon Sect in “Heavenly Dust” had never made an appearance.


    Perhaps the game hadn’t progressed to that point yet, just like how before his transmigration, the master was still a mysterious figure in the eyes of the public.


    Even though the second senior sister had never made a public appearance, everyone was aware of her existence.


    Although no one knew what she looked like, it didn’t diminish yers’ anticipation towards her.


    Her name was Gu Xiaoman, which many yers thought was cute. Countless forum posts wondered if she was a cute little sister.


    In “Heavenly Dust”, Mao Nanbei made quite a number of appearances. Though she was a bit whimsical, she was indeed gorgeous. As a cat-eared girl, how could she not be liked? This further heightened yers’ anticipation for Gu Xiaoman.


    The bamboo forest wasn’t too far or too close to the Small Study.


    Walking along, Lu Xun marveled at the scenery of the back mountain.


    He, like every neer, found every bit of the mountain beautiful.


    This was a refined mountain.


    Swarms of fireflies showed no fear of people. They fluttered like candles in the mountains, illuminating the path ahead.


    Lu Xun tried to catch a few fireflies. To his surprise, severalnded on his open palm as he lifted it up. It was magical.


    It’s not to say that they had spiritual wisdom. It was just that the back mountain had such a harmonious atmosphere. It was strange and beyond words.


    At any rate, it bore no resemnce to people’s typical perception of the Demon Sect.


    Normally, Mao Nanbei could have carried them over in an instant, but she knew this was Lu Xun’s first time appreciating the back mountain’s scenery. So, she intentionally guided him on a walk to take in the surroundings.


    Every part of the back mountain was filled with a certain rhythm. Shen Yan once said that the mountain itself was a treasure. Walking and observing more here might be beneficial for cultivating.


    Didn’t the second senior sister gain some enlightenment in the bamboo forest, after all?


    After walking for a while, Lu Xun finally saw the bamboo forest.


    It looked different during the day and night. During the day, it was a nket of lush green.


    A night breeze rustled through the leaves, creating a whispering sound.


    For some reason, Lu Xun, who had been a bit restless, suddenly felt a wave of peace wash over him.


    The sound of wind rustling through the bamboo leaves made him feel a lot more rxed.


    This mountain really possessed some magic!


    Upon entering the bamboo forest and following the narrow path through it, Mao Nanbei led the way while Lu Xun and Ji Li quietly trailed behind. Surrounding them was arge swarm of fireflies.


    When they arrived at their destination, Lu Xun looked further ahead and saw a female figure sitting on a rock. He only saw her back.


    Her Daoist robe left a deep impression on him.


    The Daoist robe seemedrge and her figure appeared thin. Against each other, she looked even thinner.


    Her long hair was done up in a bun, with a simple wooden hairpin stuck in it. She sat there, blending in with the surroundings.


    Even her back gave off a cold aura.


    Lu Xun was curious about what she looked like.


    Mao Nanbei directly shouted, “Second Senior Sister, I’ve brought the little junior brother.”


    Standing on the side, Lu Xun spoke up, “I, Lu Xun, greet Second Senior Sister.”


    He saw her nod slightly, but she made no effort to turn around.


    To be precise, it seemed as if she was stuck to her rock and couldn’t turn around.


    That was a problem. Lu Xun was curious about her appearance, but it wouldn’t be proper or polite for him to leave the path and take a deliberate detour just to look at her, especially as this was their first meeting and she was his senior sister.


    Lu Xun didn’t know what to say, and it seemed she had nothing to say either. For a moment, the atmosphere turned somewhat awkward.


    Feeling it was inappropriate, she soon stirred, taking something out from her storage magic artifact and throwing it to Lu Xun.


    Lu Xun caught it, surprisingly it was the Qi Consumption Technique that he had learned.


    Regardless of the methods chosen forter cultivation, the entrance cultivation technique for all the disciples of the Demon Sect was the Qi Consumption Technique.


    Compared to the booklet Ji Li had given him before, this one was thicker.


    Opening it up, he found not only the main text, but also many annotations written in the margins.


    Her handwriting was narrow, like her thin figure and gave off a sense of cool detachment.


    For a novice like him, this booklet was indeed a treasure!


    Besides, who was Gu Xiaoman? This person hadn’t made her formal appearance to yers in “Heavenly Dust” until after Lu Xun had transmigrated. Theter the appearance, the bigger the figure she was likely to be!


    On earth, even though she was just a fellow disciple of Lu Xun, she was at the academic deity level.


    “Is this…a weing gift?” Lu Xun said, looking down at the booklet once more.


    The situation felt quite bizarre.


    It was as if an academic deity was reluctant to speak to you and threw you a research note instead.


    Furthermore, based on her silhouette and demeanor, she didn’t seem to be a cute girl.


    ……
