Daoist Nun!!
This childlike girl was actually the master of the Heavenly Dao Academy!!
The crowd was stunned.
In their imaginations, the Daoist Nun should have been a withered old crone, shrouded in unfathomable mystery.
At the very least, she would be a dignified woman past fifty.
But no one could have expected her to be such a young girl!
They didn’t even know that the Heavenly Dao Academy consisted of only one person!
Luo Yin gazed up at the divine figure floating in the sky, a flicker of surprise crossing his face.
The Daoist Nun?
She was the Daoist Nun!
A little girl?!
Was that even possible?
“The Daoist Nun has arrived! Doesn’t that mean Luo Yin is done for?!”
“Not necessarily. What if Luo Yin did something good?”
“Good? He destroyed the Profound Heaven Tower! How is that good?!”
“Shh! Quiet down! The Daoist Nun is heading toward Luo Yin!”
“……”
The crowd, who had been whispering among themselves, instantly fell silent and looked up.
They saw the Daoist Nun take graceful steps through the void, arriving before Luo Yin in just two strides.
With a wave of her slender hand, the array trapping Luo Yin dissipated.
Then, with another wave of her slender hand, an invisible barrier enveloped the two of them.
Luo Yin suddenly realized that the noisy sounds from outside had vanished. Moreover, judging by the expressions on the faces of those outside, they could no longer see the two of them.
At that moment, the Daoist Nun spoke.
“No need to look. This barrier isolates time and space. They can’t see us or hear our voices.”
Her voice was soft and somewhat childish, just like that of a girl her apparent age.
But Luo Yin didn’t dare entertain such thoughts.
This girl had probably lived for who knew how many years.
“You destroyed the Profound Heaven Tower?” the Daoist Nun asked.
Luo Yin didn’t hide anything and simply nodded.
“And the thing on the ninth floor?”
“Dead,” Luo Yin said calmly.
“Dead?!”
This time, it was the Daoist Nun’s turn to be surprised. Her delicate eyebrows arched, clearly showing her disbelief.
She waved her slender hand toward Luo Yin, and he felt a gentle stream of spiritual energy flow through his body, missing not a single part.
“Huh. It’s really not on you. It’s truly dead?”
Luo Yin nodded.
The Daoist Nun stared at him and asked, “How did it die?”
Luo Yin took a deep breath and countered, “You tell me first—what exactly was that thing?”
Since the Daoist Nun knew of its existence, she must know its origins. Luo Yin felt that if he didn’t get to the bottom of it, it might affect his state of mind.
The Daoist Nun smiled faintly and said, “Do you know that our world is home to many races?”
Luo Yin nodded slightly. “Of course.”
This realm was called the Holy Profound Realm.
Besides the Human Race, there were others: the Stone Clan, Demon Clan, Blood Clan, Spirit Clan… a hundred races in full bloom.
The Human Race stood at the forefront.
However, in the Northern Spirit Realm, it was rare to see other races.
They were more common in places like the Western Profound Realm and the Eastern Wasteland Realm.
The Daoist Nun continued leisurely, “All these races are creations of the Heavenly Dao. In ancient times, the Heavenly Dao was born, evolving all things and giving rise to the various races…”
“Was that thing from one of those races?” Luo Yin guessed.
The Daoist Nun shook her head. “Yes and no. They weren’t created by the Heavenly Dao—their origins are unknown to all.”
“They are rejected by the Heavenly Dao!”
“They are the mortal enemies of the hundred races!”
“They are called the Blood Nether Race!”
Boom!
Her words struck like a thunderbolt from a clear sky!
Luo Yin couldn’t help but look up.
He saw a streak of rosy light flash across the sky. Rather than vanishing quickly, it transformed into a meteor and streaked toward the ground.
The Daoist Nun noticed Luo Yin’s gaze and looked up, her delicate eyebrows furrowing slightly. “What are you looking at?”
Luo Yin was stunned. “You didn’t see it?”
The Daoist Nun shook her head.
Luo Yin rubbed his eyes.
He hadn’t been mistaken!
Such a clear streak of rosy light—how could she not see it?
Luo Yin frowned and withdrew his gaze, pondering the Daoist Nun’s words.
Beings rejected by the Heavenly Dao?
No wonder!
No wonder he had been able to kill Su Chen!
Su Chen had been a Child of Destiny, favored by the Heavenly Dao.
But the Blood Nether stood in opposition to the Heavenly Dao, so it could naturally harm Su Chen.
On top of that, Luo Yin had repeatedly depleted Su Chen’s Luck Value. By that metric, Su Chen was no longer a Child of Destiny.
Thus, the Blood Nether had been able to kill him.
“Enough staring. Tell me how you killed it,” the Daoist Nun said, raising her hand to interrupt Luo Yin’s reverie. He snapped back to attention and nodded.
“I was on the eighth floor at the time…”
……
Meanwhile, in the Western Profound Realm.
Inside an inn called the Heavenly Fragrance Tower.
Lin Fan, who had just become the resident storyteller, returned to his room to rest.
A streak of rosy light descended into his body.
He jolted awake.
“Where… am I…?”
Lin Fan’s eyes were filled with confusion. Then, fragments of memory flooded his mind, and his eyes widened in shock.
“I’ve transmigrated?!”
“This is the world of a novel?!”
“The xianxia novel I read eight times!”
【Ding! Storyteller System bound successfully. As long as the host tells stories and stirs emotional fluctuations in the listeners, you can obtain corresponding rewards.】
The system’s voice rang in Lin Fan’s mind.
Lin Fan’s face lit up with joy.
“Telling stories! That’s too easy! I can just pull out any novel from my past life and make it a hit! Plus, I’m intimately familiar with this one—I know all the characters inside and out! Right, the timeline seems to be right when the protagonist Su Chen first rose to fame?”
“Suppressing the Blood Nether in the Profound Heaven Tower and earning the Daoist Nun’s praise! Famous throughout the Northern Spirit Realm!”
“I can even put together a Newcomers List and include Su Chen before his name gets too big—that’ll cause a sensation!”
“Hahahaha! And with the system, I’m the real protagonist!”
……
“You have a Primordial Chaos Dao Embryo?!”
On the other side, after hearing Luo Yin’s account, the Daoist Nun could no longer maintain her composure.
No wonder this young man had been able to slay a Blood Nether Soldier.
He possessed such a supreme treasure!
Luo Yin hadn’t wanted to reveal it at first, but none of his fabricated stories about slaying the creature had convinced her.
In the end, he decided not to hide it anymore.
Judging by her reaction, though, she didn’t seem to covet his treasure!
Luo Yin secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
“I see. With a Primordial Chaos Dao Embryo, slaying a mere Blood Nether Soldier is only to be expected,” the Daoist Nun murmured to herself.
Luo Yin suddenly remembered something and quickly asked, “Right! That thing also said I carried the aura of a Blood Nether General. What is that? And why was the one on the ninth floor inside the Profound Heaven Tower?”
At his words, the Daoist Nun didn’t answer. Instead, she cried out in alarm, “You’ve encountered a Blood Nether General too?!”
