of the Four Young Masters of Zhongzhou, Bei Chen Zhu."To go to war has both advantages and disadvantages. Not going to war... the disadvantages outweigh the advantages."Lin Qi thought for a moment an...]

A bone-chilling cold from within the room washed over Lin Qi, freezing her instantly in place.

Lin Qi casually raised her hand to break the ice layer, charging straight through and plunging into Gong Shaojun's arms.

She cried out in her innocence and fear: "Mother, mother! You can't leave! You can't abandon me!"

Gong Shaojun frowned slightly, imperceptible to the naked eye, and did not answer the question.

She reached out and pulled Lin Qi from her arms.

Stand at attention!

A dignified and aloof voice held a chill, but the gentle movements of his hand inadvertently revealed a hint of tenderness.

Lin Qi involuntarily stood up straight, her nose twitching unconsciously.

Gong Shaojun took a handkerchief and wiped the dirt and tears from her face. His movements paused when he touched the two bumps on her forehead.

This is not the first time.

Lin Qi was born missing a soul and a spirit, specifically the earth soul and the spiritual wisdom spirit. He exhibited symptoms akin to idiocy.

When playing outside, I always get bullied and come back with bruises every time.

She was asked who had hurt her, but she didn't even know she was hurt.

She can protect her for a while, but not for her whole life.

Gong Shaojun sighed, "You're here just in time. Let's take a look together!"

She waved her hand, and everything that happened in the ancestral hall was projected before her.

Lin Qi saw his father being pressed onto a long bench and beaten. The iron board landed on his father's body, each blow making him howl in pain.

Grandma and her mother-in-law sat in the front, with calm and indifferent expressions.

Grandaunt inquired, "Mother, this incompetent fool has wronged you and committed such an outrageous act that tarnishes our family's reputation. He deserves to die! But he is the head of the Lin Family after all... as long as we spare his life, how you choose to punish him afterwards is up to you!"

Mother calmly sipped two cups of tea and casually dropped a bombshell.

Last night, I was lucky enough to break through to the Nascent Soul stage.

Lin Qi saw her great-grandmother stand up in shock.

Then, furious, he ordered the servant: "Beat him! Beat him hard! If you kill him, just throw him out!"

The servant, frightened, increased his strength.

The father's screams grew louder and louder, each one accompanied by a mouthful of blood.

"When my mother saw the opportune moment, she spoke slowly: 'Grandaunt, please don't get angry. Lin Jie has a weak personality and is not suitable to be the head of the family. Why not take advantage of this incident to let him step down as head of the family and replace him with someone else... what do you think'"

Lin Qi watched as her great-grandmother's face turned purple.

She both loathed her father's incompetence and seethed at her mother's incessant pressure.

In this frontier town, an infant cultivator could guarantee the Lin family a thousand years of peace.

If Gong Shaojun were to divorce in a fit of anger and take another wife, even his grandmother would be helpless.

The Lin family mustn't anger this Nascent Soul cultivator.

Grandaunt's probing voice was weak: "If Lin Jue doesn't become the head of the family, who do you think would be suitable"

‘Mother said softly, “Little Qi is not young anymore, she can take her father’s place.”

When 4-year-old Lin Qi takes over as the head of the Lin family after her father!

Aunt's grandmother was surprised, but also let out a sigh of relief.

As long as the head of the Lin family still bears the surname Lin, she will not disappoint her ancestors.

She immediately agreed and said, "Okay, I'll have someone start making arrangements right away!"

Laying on the ground, barely alive, Lin Jue suddenly raised his head, his bloodshot eyes pointing at 'Mother': "Sir, you plotted against me!"

As soon as the words left her mouth, two figures rushed towards Shen Jian with cries.

One little girl looked angrily at the matriarch seated on the throne and Gong Shaojun, a hint of hatred brewing in her eyes.

Lin Qi opened her big eyes, looking at her unfamiliar yet familiar face.

Though still young, the girl’s face held a maturity that belied her years.

The face of the celestial being named Lin Yun who I saw in my dream was exactly the same.

Foreign memories flooded in, crashing against Lin Qi's brain like a tidal wave.

She couldn't bear it any longer, spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted.

"Little Qi!"

Gong Shaojun's usually calm and composed voice now carried a hint of worry.

Lin Qi's was like having another dream, or like being forcefully crammed with many unfamiliar memories.

She realized that the dream she had before was actually a glimpse into her past life.

She actually lives in a cultivation novel.

This storybook recounts the struggles of her half-sister, Lin Yun.

When Lin Yun was only three years old, her father was incompetent and her mother was murdered. She could only survive by relying on the Lin family.

As the illegitimate daughter of the Lin family, she was looked down upon by everyone in the desolate city.

The elder sister was foolish and tyrannical, often bullying her with others. Even the servants in the Lin family could oppress and abuse her at will.

Before the age of five, Lin Yun's life was simply miserable beyond description.

Until the Tiān Yī Zōng held a grand disciples recruitment ceremony, Lin Yun was assessed to have the Fire-Wood Spiritual Root and entered under the tutelage of Dān Fēng Mén. From then on, he began his journey of defying fate and rewriting his destiny.

She clawed her way up to the late stage of Great Ascension, becoming the first cultivator in the Cangwu Realm to break through the void.

As a vicious supporting character in a storybook, Lin Qi's fate naturally wouldn't be any better.

As the sole legitimate heir of the Lin family, a prominent cultivator clan in the desolate city, she became the head of the family at the age of four. With her formidable aunt and powerful Nascent Soul mother as her protectors, even if she were an imbecile, there was no way she wouldn't be able to strut about freely in this wasteland for her entire life.

She was instigated and misled by servants, bullying her half-sister and offending the most promising cultivator in the Lin family.

As Lin Yun's fame grew at Tianyi Sect, the deeper and wider the stories of her abuse within the Lin family spread, the worse the Lin family's situation became.

Because it lacked a soul and a spirit, it couldn't cultivate and was ridiculed and bullied by many.

When he was young, he didn't know how to resist. When he grew up, he learned to use the Lin family's power to suppress others, resulting in offending a large number of cultivators and earning the titles of "First Young Master" and "First Fool" of the Desolate City.

The spirit child's mother, heartbroken by her father's keeping of a concubine, chose to retreat into seclusion.

After entering seclusion, he didn't appear until the day when the Lin family was exterminated by cultivators provoked by Lin Yun, and then disappeared from the Cangwu Realm.

From then on, the esteemed young master of the Lin family embarked on a path of struggle and survival.

The loss of her soul and spirit left her living worse than a beggar.

One day, Jinwu Daochang met her and learned that she was the only surviving blood relative of the Lin family in the deserted city, the older sister of Lin Yun. Without a word, he kidnapped her and imprisoned her in a dark and secluded cave where he tortured her.

Every time Lin Yun broke through a level, Jin Wu Dao Chang would bring people to torment Lin Qi for a period of time in the cave.

During this period, he accidentally discovered that Lin Qi was actually carrying the bloodline of the ancient Ice Phoenix, and he started thinking about refining her into a pill.

As news spread throughout the five continents that Lin Yun was about to attain enlightenment and break through the void, Daoist Jinwu could no longer bear it. He decided to forcibly extract Lin Qi's golden core, utterly venting his rage.

Lin Yun shattered the void, Lin Qi blood-sacrificed the sea of fire, this was the final destination for the two of them.

"Home" Gong Shaojun sneered. "Nonsense!"

"Heaven wants to use my daughter as a stepping stone for its chosen one's luck I'll see about that!"

Palace Shaojun's usually cold tone carried a hint of anger.
