After being reborn, the cannon fodder junior sister quickly left the sect.

Chapter 63 Novel Bug

Half an hour later, Chu Wenqing and Feng Xiyue, who had been notified by Su Luo via a sound transmission stone, were furious after hearing Su Luo's brief explanation.

Chu Wenqing, in particular, wished he could rush to Nanshan immediately and confront those two cultivators.

"What mountain god?! It was definitely staged by those two bastards! Cultivators are not allowed to use magic on mortals, how dare those two scoundrels?!"

Feng Xiyue's voice was filled with murderous intent, "And those girls who were sacrificed, I don't even know if they're dead or alive! Those two scumbags, I will definitely cripple them with my own hands!"

In the end, it took Su Luo a lot of persuasion before the two of them calmed down a bit.

Su Luo was then able to continue: "Actually, I planned to go into the mountains in place of the Su family's daughter, but I'm alone, so, Fellow Daoist Feng..."

"No need to say more!"

Feng Xiyue's voice came from the communication stone, firm and strong, "I'll go with you! Whether it's a god or a ghost, we'll find out!"

Su Luo nodded in satisfaction, "Okay, that's what I've been waiting for."

Chu Wenqing was still worried. "But, I'm not entirely at ease with just you two dealing with those two cultivators, and there's also a mountain god whose existence is uncertain... How about my senior sister and I play the brides?"

Feng Xiyue asked in confusion, "Why can I play the bride, but Su Luo can't?"

Chu Wenqing: "Senior Sister is so powerful, what's there to worry about? Su Luo is a talisman master, her cultivation is lower than mine, of course I should protect her!"

Feng Xiyue complained, "What about Lin Ji? He's so handsome, he wouldn't look out of place even if he dressed as a woman!"

Lin Ji, who was obediently staying by Su Luo's side, was surprised to be suddenly called upon. He said helplessly, "I don't care, and I'm willing to go in Su Luo's place, but Su Luo won't agree."

He genuinely didn't care; it wasn't like he hadn't dressed as a woman before.

But as soon as he brought it up, Su Luo shook her head and refused, saying that he was physically weak and his cultivation was not high enough, so she would never agree.

After saying that, Lin Ji turned his head and looked at Su Luo with a pitiful look of being "afraid of being abandoned," but unfortunately Su Luo was heartless and didn't even glance at him.

Lin Ji was extremely depressed.

Unexpectedly, Chu Wenqing then said something shocking: "Of course we can't let Lin Ji go! He's so handsome, and his small frame would be easily pushed over. He might even be sexually assaulted! Boys need to protect themselves!"

After these deafening words, everyone was stunned into silence for a long time before they recovered.

Feng Xiyue: "Hmm, ah...that makes sense..."

Su Luo: "I am speechless..."

Lin Ji: "..."

Sometimes he really wanted to sew Chu Wenqing's mouth shut!

"In any case! Su Luo and Lin Ji are both unsure, so why don't my senior sister and I play the brides? We're both at the late Foundation Establishment stage, so we'll have a better chance of winning!"

Su Luo was grateful for Chu Wenqing's concern, but she still couldn't help but remind him, "Chu Wenqing, have you forgotten? I have the Crimson Flame Spear..."

Chu Wenqing silently shut her mouth.

That's right! With the Crimson Flame Spear, Su Luo was invincible. She could even take on two opponents at once and kill Ye Danqing and his two peak Foundation Establishment cultivators.

What is he worried about Su Luo? He should just shut up!

Sensing Chu Wenqing's frustration on the other end of the communication stone, Su Luo comforted him, "Chu Wenqing, I have a very important task for you to do..."

The boy immediately perked up, "What?!"

Su Luo narrowed her eyes, her tone sharp as a knife, "You take the Wind-Riding Boat and find the people from the Immortal Alliance as soon as possible. Tell them about this and make sure they go to Nanshan as soon as possible, no matter what."

From the very beginning, she never intended to become a superhero, nor did she believe that the four of them alone could solve this huge problem. The troubles of the human realm were best handled by the Immortal Alliance; they were merely scouts to investigate.

The wind-driven boat was very fast. By the time Chu Wenqing invited the people from the Immortal Alliance, they should have only just arrived at Nanshan. It wouldn't be a problem to hold off those two cultivators.

"Alright, then be careful in everything you do, don't do anything rash, and wait for me to come!"

"Okay, we get it."

After everything was discussed, Chu Wenqing set off immediately, while Feng Xiyue secretly slipped into Hekou Village under the cover of night to meet up with Su Luo.

At the same time, Lin Ji was also assigned a task by Su Luo: to protect the village.

Su Luo was mainly worried that the "mountain god" was an accomplice of the two cultivators. If they noticed anything unusual, they would definitely send their accomplices to attack the villagers. Therefore, the village still needed a cultivator to guard it.

Although Lin Ji's expression wasn't very pleasant after hearing Su Luo's arrangements, he seemed to have thought of something and silently nodded.

As night deepened, Su Luo and Feng Xiyue were pulled into a room by the village's skilled women, who were preparing to dress them up as brides.

Su Luo and Feng Xiyue were each assigned to a separate room to get ready. Su Luo stayed in the room on the left, sitting upright at the dressing table, her eyes closed as the Su sisters gently worked on her face.

They asked for it after they woke up, so Su Luo agreed.

Even with her eyes closed, she could sense the sisters' nervousness. They seemed to have something to say, but ultimately didn't, focusing instead on applying makeup to Su Luo.

After a while, the girl said softly, "Immortal, it's done."

"How about it?"

Su Luo slowly opened her eyes, looked at herself in the bronze mirror, and nodded in satisfaction, "Not bad."

After transmigrating into the novel, she had never worn makeup before, and she never expected that her first time wearing makeup would be as a bride.

The two sisters breathed a sigh of relief and quickly helped Su Luo change into her wedding dress.

Seeing that Su Luo was still curiously looking at herself in the mirror, they exchanged glances, nervously clutching the things in their hands. In the end, it was Su Qing, the older daughter of the Su family, who spoke first.

"Immortal, could we... possibly take up a little of your time?"

Su Luo turned around and nodded, "Okay."

"First of all," Su Qing said, pulling her sister along as they bowed to Su Luo, "Immortal, thank you... You saved us sisters, we could never repay you even if we were to serve you like cattle and horses..."

The youngest daughter of the Su family chimed in, "Yes, Immortal, if you hadn't come, my sister and I would probably have had no hope in this life... We are truly grateful to you..."

They weren't stupid; they knew that the sisters who had become the mountain god's brides had never returned, so they were terrified, fearing that one day it would be their turn. When it finally came, they could only cry helplessly, thinking their lives were hopeless. But unexpectedly, the immortals came looking for them and were willing to help!

They will never forget the kindness of the immortals!

Su Luo said calmly, "You are Su Luo's family, so it's only right that I help you out."

"Speaking of this."

Su Qing wiped away her tears and asked, "Sister, how have you been all these years?"

When the two Su sisters were only one year old, Su Luo was taken away by Qing Ya Zi, so they didn't really have any memory of this older sister. Occasionally, when they heard their parents mention Su Luo's name, they would be curious about this immortal cultivator sister and look forward to seeing her when she came to the mortal realm.

Su Mei also looked up, gazing at Su Luo with anticipation, "Sister must be really amazing now, right?"

Looking at their innocent and longing expressions, Su Luo thought for a moment and ultimately decided not to tell the truth.

"She's doing quite well, her cultivation has made great progress, and she's very happy in the sect. It's just that cultivating the Great Dao is as difficult as ascending to heaven, and she needs to constantly go into seclusion to cultivate, so she doesn't have much time to come to the mortal realm."

"That's wonderful! My sister can go to the spirit world and cultivate immortality... I've heard that immortals can fly and escape into the earth, and have the ability to move mountains and fill seas. They're incredibly powerful!" As she spoke, Su Mei's eyes showed a hint of envy.

Su Qing smiled too, "As long as my sister is doing well, that's all that matters. Father and Mother have been feeling guilty, thinking that if they had refused that immortal back then, at least the family wouldn't have been separated. I'll tell them about it later, and they'll definitely be happy!"

Su Luo remained noncommittal, then took out two bottles of pills and some silver from a storage bag and handed them to Su Qing.

"Your elder sister feels guilty for not being able to return, so she asked me to bring you some things. Please accept this money; it will ensure your family can live well from now on. Also, these two bottles of pills have the function of prolonging life. You can only use them yourselves and must never let anyone know, otherwise it may lead to your death."

Su Qing initially refused to accept it, but Su Luo insisted that it was given to them by their elder sister and that they should accept it no matter what, so they finally put it away.

The items have been given, and the instructions have been given; it's time to get down to business.

Su Luo glanced at the pitch-black sky outside, her tone shifting sharply, "It's almost midnight, we need to move out. Su Qing, you all hide in the cellar according to plan, and don't come out without my signal!"

Therefore, Su Luo specially put up a shielding talisman in the cellar so that even if the wedding party arrives later, they will not notice anything unusual.

The two sisters replied solemnly, "Yes!"

After saying that, Su Luo put away her storage bag, turned around and walked out briskly. She opened the door and saw Lin Ji waiting outside, and whispered some instructions.

"Lin Ji, I'll be relying on you to stay and guard the village then."

"..."

Lin Ji had already looked up when Su Luo opened the door. At this moment, his breath hitched, and a spark seemed to flash in his eyes as he looked at Su Luo, his gaze becoming increasingly deep.

In his eyes, Su Luo was still the same as before, only now she looked even more captivating after dressing up.

The young woman before me had delicately painted eyebrows and lightly touched-up lips. The rouge she wore added a touch of alluring blush to her already picturesque face. Her fiery red wedding dress perfectly accentuated her figure, making her radiant.

Seeing that Lin Ji didn't respond and was just standing there blankly, Su Luo thought he was in a daze, so she couldn't help but wave her hand, "Lin Ji? Hey, Lin Ji!"

"Ah...what?"

Lin Ji suddenly snapped back to her senses, a blush rising on her jade-like face. The subtle blush quickly spread to her ears, rippling like spring water in the candlelight, captivating all who beheld her.

Su Luo almost stared wide-eyed. She blinked and repeated what she had just said.

The boy lowered his eyes and nodded. In the dim candlelight, Lin Ji looked even more handsome, with a hazy beauty about him.

Su Luo couldn't help but take a few more glances, sighing inwardly.

"As the old saying goes, 'Admire a beauty under the lamp, admire flowers under the moon.' The ancients were right!"

but……

Su Luo was still somewhat puzzled.

Someone this beautiful should logically be at least an important supporting character, if not the main character, yet Lin Ji never appears in the novel. That's really strange… Could he be a plot hole in the novel?
