Immortal Qian Zun, as the original host’s master, knew that he could only teach the original host how to cultivate, provide her with resources and opportunities, and talk to her to provide her with some insights.

Whether she could get out of the Chu family’s influence was up to her.

There were countless personalities in this world. Not everyone had the personality type that could decisively sever various emotional ties.

In the words of Immortal Qian Zun, the original host actually didn’t have a personality that’d allow her to become an immortal cultivator. However, she did have exceptional talent, and he didn’t want to miss out on such talent. He had to give it a try. Perhaps she could succeed, after all.

Unfortunately, in the end, she failed.

The original host finally realised what she did wrong after she failed. However, she still needed to pay a high price for it.

Qian Yan reviewed the original host’s memories and discovered that the original host had a personality defect, which was caused by her family, ever since she was a child. Added to this was the fact that the Chu family had been constantly clinging to her. The original host had a gentle nature. The Chu family had brainwashed her for a long time. She was indoctrinated with many principles and values by her family since she was very young.

To put it bluntly, the world and the Chu family had imposed numerous restrictions on the original owner, confining her.

Even with her exceptional talent, without breaking free from these restrictions, she wouldn’t be able to attain immortality.

Cultivation should be done with an open heart, but she repeatedly went against her own heart’s desires in her path to immortality. It was her hesitations and inability to let go that led to the many tragedies in her life.

Qian Yan had listened to the original host tell her own story before. She knew that the original host really had realised where she had gone wrong. However, she still had regrets about what had happened to her six disciples.

Qian Yan ignored the furious looks that the original host’s parents pointed at her from the door of Chu Pingyu’s seclusion room. She plundered everything that she could find and stored them in her storage ring, before then finally walking out.

As she stood at the entrance of the closed-door room, she even kindly helped set up a formation.

Chu Chengxi coldly snorted. “Qianyan, what exactly are you doing?”

“Don’t make a fuss; the formation isn’t complete yet,” Qian Yan said indifferently. “If my little brother goes insane because of you disrupting his cultivation… Well, you’ll be the one responsible for it.”

Yang Fengxiang, seeing that Chu Chengxi was about to explode in anger, quickly covered his mouth. “Old man, let’s talk later. Calm down first. We can discuss this outside. Don’t disturb Pingyu.”

Chu Chengxi took a deep breath. He managed to hold back his anger.

Qian Yan continued to set up the formation. Nearly half an hour passed, and she still hadn’t shown any sign of stopping any time soon.

“How much longer is it going to take?” Chu Chengxi couldn’t hold back any longer and asked in a low voice.

“What’s your rush? Pingyu is terrible at making formations. It was so easy for me to enter this place. What could his flimsy formation possibly protect against? Shouldn’t I set up a secure one for him?” Qian Yan replied.

Witnessing Qian Yan’s bandit-like behaviour, Ye Huaifeng couldn’t help but wonder about her intentions.

He knew that she was very skilled in creating formations. Why was she taking this long?

Ye Huaifeng glanced at the formation that his master drew. He was skilled at drawing talismans and had also learned a little about drawing formations. However, his master’s skills were too advanced, and he didn’t understand much about the formation that she was making.

One thing was certain, though. He knew that the formation she was making was very awesome.

Maybe… Chu Pingyu won’t be able to come out of it.

Ye Huaifeng’s eyes lit up. Ah, could that be it?

After an hour had passed, Qian Yan finally stopped chanting the formation spell. The Chu family members who were looking towards the door of the closed-door room saw a watery, blurry wall-like structure.

They attempted to use their spiritual senses to examine it but only found that it was impenetrable.

Chu Chengxi sneered internally. Did Chu Qianyan think that she’d be forgiven just by setting up a formation for Chu Pingyu?

Impossible!

She was dreaming if she truly believed that.

“Huaifeng, let’s go,” Qian Yan called out to Ye Huaifeng.

He softly responded and walked alongside her.

His master had acted very roughly, like a bandit, today. Ye Huaifeng found himself rather happy with this side of her. He sneakily glanced at Qian Yan, who had a calm expression on her face. She looked as if nothing had happened.

However, he soon realized they were not heading down the peak.

Before he could ask, Chu Chengxi, who had left the Chu Pingyu’s seclusion area, couldn’t contain himself any longer and shouted, “Chu Qianyan, are you out of your mind? How dare you to snatch Pingyu’s things? Have you taken cultivated so much that you’ve lost your mind!?”
