Chapter 12: Chapter 12 He Was Struck Dead by Lightning
Looking back at the heart's desire list, the total price of all the items she yearned for amounted to a staggering 28,000 points, with a current balance of just 10 points.
For a moment, Lu Xingyan wasn't sure whether she should feel relieved that the antagonist Yuezheng Yan made his appearance with a blackening value of 20 million points at her disposal.
Otherwise, where would she get the points to buy all these things?
While she was pondering this, cries of despair from the 666 system echoed in her mind.
[Wuu wuu wuu save me, I'm going to die, I'm dead!]
[Host, you guessed right, Yuezheng Yan really is reincarnated!]
[I told you he couldn't have accumulated that much blackening value wuu wuu wuu]
[The headquarters backtracked the soul currently in Yuezheng Yan's body and speculated on the timeline before Yuezheng Yan's reincarnation, reaching when he had slaughtered both Jiuxiao Peak and the Yuezheng Family and became the Demon Lord]
"So, what caused his reincarnation, was he killed by the male and female protagonists?" According to the plot given to Lu Xingyan by the 666 system, after becoming the Demon Lord and exacting his revenge, Yuezheng Yan's infamy spread throughout the Immortal Spirit Realm, and in the end, was slain by the male and female protagonists.
[Err, he wasn't killed by the male and female protagonists]
The 666 system fell somewhat silent as it spoke.
[He was struck to death by lightning]
"Oh, then he and I will have something to talk about," Lu Xingyan said gleefully.
The 666 system hesitated for a long while, wanting to say more but holding back, finally choosing to be honest.
[Host, it was the thunder you brought with you that struck him dead...]
"What?" Lu Xingyan knew every word, but put together, she couldn't understand what the 666 system meant.
[You brought the Heavenly Thunder from Huaxia to the Immortal Spirit Realm, sparking and flashing along the way. By chance, you passed through the timeline where Yuezheng Yan had become the Demon Lord, and with his constitution and demonic cultivation, he just happened to be struck dead by that thunder]
"So the male and female protagonists didn't slay the antagonist, but I incidentally took his life on my way?" Lu Xingyan was once again silenced.
[Host, the antagonist's reincarnation does have a little something to do with you]
[But don't worry, this matter is known only to heaven, earth, you, and me; as long as we don't speak of it, even if Yuezheng Yan is reincarnated, he will only think he was simply struck dead by lightning in his previous life]
Thinking of Yuezheng Yan's current blackening value of over 19 million points, Lu Xingyan nodded firmly, "Let's never bring this up again after today's talk, not even in thought."
[Rest assured, host, I'm the biggest coward, I'll absolutely keep quiet!]
Once their one-on-one discussion was over, they arrived at the Spiritual Meal Hall of Xuanling Sect.
As the wealthiest sect in the entire Immortal Spirit Realm, the Spiritual Meal Hall served nothing but Spirit Food.
As someone accustomed to the delicacies of Huaxia back on Earth, Lu Xingyan certainly wouldn't miss out on these fine foods upon arriving in the Immortal Spirit Realm.
After spending ten medium-grade spirit stones, Lu Xingyan bought two servings of premium meals and sat on the back of Big Goose, heading for Xiaoyao Peak.
[Host, your spirit stones should be spent on cultivation and other professions. You usually eat the Fasting Pills you make yourself. Why did you buy so much today?]
Having followed Lu Xingyan for ten years, the 666 system, which had grown up with her in the Immortal Spirit Realm, naturally understood her lifestyle habits well.
"Regardless of what I think in my heart or the motives behind my kindness to Yuezheng Yan, I cannot deny that he is currently my junior brother and that I was the one who asked Master to take him into Xiaoyao Peak."
Brushing the hair blown astray by the wind behind her ears, Lu Xingyan smiled and replied, "It's my duty as the eldest senior disciple to host a feast to welcome my junior brother on the day of his admission to the sect, and it leaves no room for anyone to fault my manners."
Before knowing that Yuezheng Yan was reborn, she only felt that the personality he displayed did not match the information provided by the system.
But having confirmed Yuezheng Yan's reincarnation, all the oddities she had noticed in him were explained.
Lu Xingyan's lips curled slightly upwards, finding herself more invested in her approach to Yuezheng Yan than she had been at first.
Who would have thought her villainous junior disciple loved to act so much.
It was unclear whether it was his natural disposition or the nastiness that came after blackening.
Lu Xingyan decided she would have to have a proper meeting with this freshly accepted and still warm villainous junior disciple when she got back.
