Upon hearing this, Dong Yuner was momentarily stunned, thinking she had misheard. Forcing a smile, she said:
“Are you joking? That joke wasn’t very funny. I think it’s better if we communicate normally.”
Huyan Yazhi directly sneered:
“Who’s joking with you? Have you looked at your own status? Even though I have to work for your young miss, my position is clearly higher than yours.”
“It’s already generous of me not to make you kneel down and wipe my shoes. If you keep causing trouble, don’t blame me for telling your young miss and having her teach you a lesson. You wouldn’t want to be scolded by your young miss, would you?”
Huyan Yazhi threatened without hesitation, revealing an extremely sinister smile, fully displaying her petty nature.
Seeing this, Dong Yuner’s expression remained unchanged, but she revealed a dangerous smile:
“I see. So you’re just a delusional fool. Fine, fine.”
“Since you’re my young miss’s friend, I’ll give you a free treatment. Don’t worry, I won’t charge you if it doesn’t work.”
Watching Dong Yuner, who was gradually becoming dangerous and quickly approaching her, Huyan Yazhi finally realized something was wrong. She quickly backed away and shouted:
“What are you trying to do? I’m warning you, don’t come closer!”
Lin Huanhuan had no idea what was happening outside. She had already entered her bedroom and sat down cross-legged.
This period was a lull in the plot. For the next month, there was no description of her in the original work. That meant she didn’t need to do anything during this time; it could be called her own time.
In other words, no matter what she did during this period, it would be consistent with the original work and wouldn’t be maliciously targeted by the Heavenly Dao.
Lin Huanhuan deeply understood that this time was precious. She had to make good use of it to improve her hard power as much as possible, preparing for the upcoming major plot.
According to the original work, a month later, members of the Chaos Demon Mountain spy squad would break through to Foundation Establishment one after another, then come into contact with Bai Lingfeng and thoroughly offend him.
After that, the Chaos Demon Mountain squad would truly begin to steal the Mountain and Sea Map. The plan would directly fail, with most of them killed by Bai Lingfeng and the Punishment Hall. Only You Yuelan and one or two others would escape.
Of course, understanding the original work, Lin Huanhuan knew this was because Bai Lingfeng had secretly shown mercy.
After escaping the Lingyun Sect, You Yuelan and her senior sister would be pursued by their Shizun.
It was known that Bai Lingfeng decided to help them, successfully killed their Shizun’s clone, and rescued them.
Their Shizun wanted to refine them into medicinal ingredients, chasing them all the way during this period.
If things went normally, the plot would not deviate at all and would proceed like this.
‘But this is under normal circumstances. Before I came, the Heavenly Dao clearly told me that I am here to correct deviations in the plot. Since I’m here to correct, it means the plot will definitely deviate. That is, there will likely be changes that didn’t appear in the original work…’
‘Although through my efforts, You Yuelan’s attitude toward me is basically the same as in the original, there are still some changes. Besides my interference, there should be other variables.’
‘In You Yuelan’s storyline, the most dangerous part is when they are being chased by their Shizun.’
‘That’s a clone of a Half-Step Golden Core who was knocked down from the Golden Core Realm to Foundation Establishment.’
‘Even though it uses a Mechanical Puppet Body, its combat power has reached the level of invincible late Foundation Establishment. Only a peak Foundation Establishment can suppress it.’
‘Although in the original work I don’t need to participate in the battle, who knows if the altered plot will require me to face such a terrifying existence?’
‘The pressure is enormous.’
‘Moreover, the small secret realm where You Yuelan and the others are being chased can only accommodate cultivators up to late Foundation Establishment.’
‘Is this indirectly preventing most possibilities of the original work being altered?’
‘Forget it, I’ll take it one step at a time.’
Lin Huanhuan shook her head and decided to put these matters aside for now.
‘That part of the plot isn’t very long. The remaining time isn’t enough for me to break through to late Foundation Establishment, so I have to think of ways to improve my hard power.’
‘The techniques I currently have are mainly Wind Blade Art, Storm Art, Soul-Charming Wind, and Wind Silk Entanglement, plus the Soul-Breaking Wind from the Ten Thousand Soul Banner.’
‘Not very many. Mainly because I just broke through to Foundation Establishment not long ago and don’t have much time to learn new techniques. Also, just learning them isn’t very useful; I need some actual combat.’
‘Currently, I can crush an average mid Foundation Establishment cultivator. If I encounter a genius, I’m not afraid of those at the same realm, but crossing a small realm is too difficult.’
‘With my heart demon’s assistance, I can exchange a few moves with a late Foundation Establishment, but I will definitely lose after ten moves. The only technique that can threaten late Foundation Establishment is Soul-Breaking Wind, but defeating them is almost impossible…’
‘The Soul-Fixing Needle used by the Huang Family’s patriarch is quite good; it can directly suppress a late Foundation Establishment, but it’s extremely difficult to practice. In today’s world without Soul Path resources, the Huang Family patriarch probably took ten years to master this technique. Even if my talent surpasses his, it would take at least a year at minimum.’
‘With that time, I might as well directly break through. A higher realm suppressing a lower one—no matter how many tricks you have, I’ll just break through with pure power.’
‘It’s like an adult Siberian tiger fighting a cat. No matter what tricks the cat plays, there’s basically no chance of losing.’
Thinking this, Lin Huanhuan couldn’t help but frown:
‘This is really troublesome.’
Lin Huanhuan sighed:
‘This is reality after all. Unfortunately, I don’t have Bai Lingfeng’s almost heaven-defying combat talent.’
‘Crossing a small realm is too difficult.’
Lin Huanhuan thought hard for a while, and then a flash of inspiration struck her.
If normal techniques couldn’t contend with late Foundation Establishment, why not create a unique technique herself?
For ordinary people, this would be extremely difficult, but with her heart demon’s help, she could enter a super learning state at any time—this was precisely her strength.
‘But just that isn’t enough. I also need a free sparring partner.’
‘Coincidentally, there’s someone who owes me some work for free. She shouldn’t refuse, right? Anyway, she doesn’t have the right to refuse.’
Thinking this, Lin Huanhuan immediately stood up and walked outside.
When she arrived at the small courtyard and saw Huyan Yazhi being “educated” by Dong Yuner, she was momentarily stunned.
Dong Yuner was holding a small stick, and Huyan Yazhi stood before her like an obedient student, humble and submissive.
Dong Yuner occasionally waved the stick, directing Huyan Yazhi to do something.
“What are you doing?”
Lin Huanhuan was puzzled.
Seeing her come out, Dong Yuner happily called out:
“Miss, I’m teaching Miss Huyan some everyday knowledge. When I communicated with her just now, I realized she lacked so much common sense. Isn’t that right?”
Dong Yuner lightly waved the stick.
Huyan Yazhi trembled slightly and quickly ingratiated herself:
“Yes, yes, thanks to Senior Sister Yuner, otherwise I really wouldn’t have known these things.”
