Great Love Immortal Venerate: Why are all my fairies yandere?

In the Sword Sect's base, as the sound of water echoed around, within the palace of Dawn City.

The dark night was as quiet as sleep, the world deserted as if lifeless.

Jing Lixue stood with her hands behind her back on the rooftop, her dark and exquisite hair tumbling like three thousand streams, weaving a tapestry of splendor.

She gazed at the lonely moon hanging in the sky, lost in a daze.

A girl with her eyes blindfolded by a black cloth pushed a wheelchair out from the palace hall, looking up at the figure in blue standing on the rooftop, at the intersection of the bright moonlight and the dark flame light, half cold and solitary, half as dazzling as the rosy clouds.

"Your Highness..."

She called softly.

"The time you spoke of has come."n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Has it?"

Jing Lixue withdrew her gaze, her beautiful face returning to calm and indifference as if righting an overturned water glass.

"Finally, it has come."

She moved gracefully, as if descending invisible stairs from the air, to stand in front of the blindfolded girl.

"Yan'er, you remember what I have told you, right?"

"I remember."

The blindfolded girl took out a jade vial from her bosom, speaking with a respectful expression: "If the Outer Domain Demon you spoke of comes knocking, and I'm driven to a corner, I should use this medicine against him."

"Correct."

Jing Lixue nodded in approval: "Even if you are unfortunately captured, do not give in to the desire for death."

"Yan'er understands, but what Yan'er doesn't understand is why you set up a ban related to secrets in my mind, Your Highness?"

The blindfolded girl's face showed a hint of anxiety: "Could it be... did Yan'er do something wrong,..."

And if she knew the demon would come seeking her, why not let her prepare in advance?

But she did not dare to voice these questions.

"Don't overthink. I have no suspicions about you betraying me. I have my reasons for doing this. You just need to follow my orders, understand?"

Jing Lixue's stunning face flashed a shade colder.

"Yes."

As if feeling the chill, Yan'er shuddered.

Yet, even so, she did not believe that Xu Yuan could drive her to a dead end.

Jing Lixue suddenly smiled warmly, reaching out to gently caress Yan'er's cheek: "Don't worry, just listen to me, I won't harm you. By the way, remember to dress up nicely when you return."

"...Yes."

Yan'er was startled, clearly not understanding the meaning of her last words, before bowing her head and tightly clutching the vial in her palm, its effects unknown to her.

...

After a negotiation that left one parched and out of breath, Tian Liuli sat on the bed gasping, drenched in sweat.

"Are you comfortable, Liuli?"

Xu Yuan asked with a smile.

"Cut the nonsense, what do you want? Out with it!"

Tian Liuli, her face slightly flushed, said through clenched teeth.

If it weren't for the fact they were within the Sword Sect's base, wary of the Formations, she would have taken action right now.

This man was truly getting more presumptuous.

"I need your help with something tomorrow."

As he spoke of serious matters, Xu Yuan also became more earnest.

"What help?"

Tian Liuli narrowed her phoenix eyes, pondering what conditions to demand.

"I'm going to trouble the Heavenly Machine Tower tomorrow and hope you can assist me."

"Are you insane?!"

Tian Liuli looked at him incredulously: "Do you realize what kind of status the Heavenly Machine Tower has in Dawn City? And you actually want to provoke them?"

Not just him, even she didn't dare to directly challenge the major Sects at present.

Tian Liuli was no fool; she knew clearly when to be arrogant and when not to be.

"I have no choice in this matter."

Xu Yuan lowered his eyelids and said, "Actually, they were the first to cause me trouble, and if I don't deal with them, I won't have peace of mind."

"They were the first to trouble you?"

Tian Liuli was stunned for a moment, and then a flash of killing intent passed through her eyes as she asked: "Do you know the location of the Heavenly Machine Tower?"

Once she learned that the matter might involve his life-or-death crisis, she no longer had the attitude of driving a hard bargain.

"I do."

Xu Yuan nodded.

The relationship between the Heavenly Machine Tower and the royal family wasn't like the other seven Sects' distant relation with the royalty, so of course, there was no need for them to guard against the royal family. Their headquarters were boldly established in one location.

Of course, even so, very few people knew about it.

"Are you sure there's no trace of the former Divine Emperor behind them?"

Tian Liuli asked again.

If so, she might have to take part in this exciting play of the nine sons vying for the throne.

"That, I plan to find out when I get there."

"Oh?"

Tian Liuli pondered briefly: "The others might be manageable, but their Tower Master is rumored to possibly be a Cultivator at the Primordial Spirit realm, or even the Return to Void realm..."

"As for their Tower Master, leave him to me. As long as you can hold back the rest and prevent them from coming over, it'll be fine."

Xu Yuan said with a faint smile, appearing extremely confident.

"How sure are you?"

Tian Liuli was somewhat uneasy.

"A few."

"A few?"

Tian Liuli furrowed her brows.

She didn't understand what that meant.

"Just trust me."

Xu Yuan didn't explain, simply stating it lightly.

"Then, after the current Divine Emperor ascends the throne..."

"Don't worry too much about that; I won't kill her. After the Divine Emperor ascends, she definitely won't cause us trouble."

Tian Liuli wanted to ask more, but seeing his adamantly confident demeanor, she ultimately gave up on probing further: "Since you're prepared, then it should be manageable."
