Senior Sister Is Too Weak and Cannot Take Care Of Herself (Transmigration) - Chapter 9

In all the harem novels out there, even if the protagonists are mediocre or have glaring flaws, they are always favored by the author. They can turn the tables on any setback, and their cultivation levels soar with cheat-like powers, leading them to a life of wealth and fame.

Perhaps it’s because she shared a name with the cannon fodder, but Tang Huan didn’t particularly like Ren Jingmu when she read the book. Now, after transmigrating, she felt an even greater sense of frustration when dealing with him.

Ren Jingmu only had a handsome face. He was impulsive and reckless, not caring about the consequences. It would have been fine if he were simply a bit foolish and had an upright character, but Ren Jingmu was selfish, narrow-minded, and quick to believe rumors.

Tang Huan knew that the only reason Ren Jingmu was targeting her now was because Bai Feng had said something to him before she left.

Bai Feng’s plan to kill Qin Su was ruined by Tang Huan, so it was only natural that she wouldn’t say anything good about her to Ren Jingmu.

And Ren Jingmu actually believed Bai Feng’s slander!

Tang Huan truly felt suffocated.

She knew that the original owner had done many wrong things, and Tang Huan had been trying to make up for them all this time. But neither the original owner nor Tang Huan had done anything to hurt Ren Jingmu. And even Qin Su, the person directly involved, had already forgiven Tang Huan, yet Ren Jingmu wouldn’t let it go and kept nagging her.

Is it because Ren Jingmu is the protagonist, favored by the author with powerful luck, that everyone else must endure the injustice and constantly compromise with him?

…

Even a saint would lose their temper. For the first time, Tang Huan didn’t want to lay low in front of Ren Jingmu.

“Then show me the proof!”

Tang Huan took a deep breath to calm her anger. She knew where Ren Jingmu’s weakness was and deliberately targeted it. “Also, I have to ask you, what is your relationship with Senior Sister Qin Su, and what gives you the right to say these things to me?”

“By overstepping your boundaries like this, aren’t you afraid of causing a rift between Senior Sister Qin and her future partner and bringing controversy upon her?”

After the incident with the spiritual snakes, Tang Huan finally understood. Ren Jingmu didn’t actually like Qin Su that much.

The reason he kept chasing her was most likely due to his competitive nature. After all, the protagonists in harem novels were always favored; most women who met him would fall for him. It was rare for him to meet a woman like Qin Su, who was so indifferent to him. Since Qin Su was also incredibly beautiful, she naturally sparked his desire for conquest.

Tang Huan’s words indeed hit Ren Jingmu’s weak spot. In front of the a-list Qin Su, he had no confidence that he could win her heart, but his pride prevented him from admitting it. He never expected Tang Huan to say it so directly.

Ren Jingmu’s face was twisted with anger and embarrassment. He clenched his fists and glared at Tang Huan.

“Just you wait—”

A vein popped out on Ren Jingmu’s forehead. He gritted his teeth and let out a cold laugh.

What Tang Huan said was all true. He had no evidence that Tang Huan was the culprit, but her attitude had further enraged him. This type of protagonist has one trait: they don’t care if they are wrong first; they only remember all the humiliation others inflict on them, holding grudges in secret and retaliating with a vengeance on a later day.

However, Tang Huan wasn’t scared of him at all. She raised her head and stared back at him coldly. In her previous life, she focused on health and well-being, which meant she couldn’t have big emotional fluctuations. This gave her an excellent ability to manage her emotions. At this moment, her anger had already subsided.

So what if Ren Jingmu holds a grudge?

Tang Huan pursed her lips, feeling a sense of satisfaction as she looked at Ren Jingmu’s twisted face. When she decided to go against him, she had already thought of a plan. She would work hard to get close to Qin Su. Once she became Qin Su’s best friend, Tang Huan didn’t believe Ren Jingmu would have the guts to challenge his goddess’s best friend, unless he wanted to give up on chasing Qin Su for the rest of his life!

Qin Su was not that easy to please.

Since Qin Su had joined the Tianxuan Sect so many years ago, countless people had tried to curry favor with her. She was always gentle and pleasant to everyone, but she never truly became close to anyone.

But compared to the annoying Ren Jingmu, Tang Huan was more willing to put in the effort to get to know Qin Su. At the very least, Qin Su was very beautiful and had a good personality.

Because of this decision, on the tenth day of Qin Su’s recovery, Tang Huan picked out a gift from her residence. Afraid of another misunderstanding like the cup incident, Tang Huan cautiously chose the most ordinary, harmless, and inedible piece of spiritual jade as her gift. She then went to the Baiwu Peak to visit Qin Su.

Of the five major peaks of the Tianxuan Sect, the Baiwu Peak, where Qin Su lived, mainly cultivated medical practitioners.

The Baiwu Peak was the largest of the five.

Medical practitioners needed a large number of spiritual herbs. As far as the eye could see, there were fields of spiritual herbs on the Baiwu Peak. The rich spiritual energy in the fields condensed into a white mist that was so thick it was impossible to see to the end.

The original owner disliked Qin Su and rarely went to the Baiwu Peak. This was Tang Huan’s first time visiting Qin Su’s residence.

Qin Su liked peace and quiet, and her residence was in a very secluded location. Fearing another incident, Tang Huan brought Wang Mengyao and a few other friends with her before daring to visit.

Qin Su’s residence was on a small hill. Below the hill were layers upon layers of Purple Calamus Flowers. When they walked by, the petals fell like rain. After walking up a long flight of stairs, a discreet wooden door was hidden among the thick layers of flowers. It was impossible to see without looking closely.

Tang Huan never imagined that Qin Su would live in a place like this.

The scenery around the residence was beautiful, but it was too remote, and the living conditions were not good. It was even worse than the living quarters of the newly initiated disciples. Compared to Qin Su’s popularity within the sect, it seemed a bit shabby.

At the entrance stood the young attendant they had met before. Seeing the group of people, the attendant politely walked forward a few steps and bowed. “Greetings, esteemed cultivators.”

“My master is not feeling well and needs to rest in peace, so she is not receiving guests. I hope you can understand.”

“Is Senior Sister not feeling better yet?” Tang Huan had heard from the grapevine that Qin Su wasn’t seeing anyone and that Ren Jingmu had been turned away several times. She understood, but on the surface, she showed a genuine look of concern.

She frowned, handed her gift to the attendant, and said in a gentle voice, “Please tell Senior Sister to rest well. If there is anything we can do, please let us know. We are all willing to do anything to help her.”

“Thank you for your concern, Fairy.” The attendant’s face showed a polite smile, neither distant nor overly enthusiastic, as if he was used to hearing such words. After receiving the gift, he bowed again.

Tang Huan wasn’t familiar with Qin Su. She was just there to keep up appearances, and her part was done. The people who came with her, however, were truly worried about Qin Su and went forward to ask about her condition.

Tang Huan couldn’t get a word in, and seeing that they wouldn’t be done anytime soon, she simply walked to the side to admire the view.

The Purple Calamus Flower was a unique flower. In ancient times, it was rare to find one, but its petals were purple. Once it came into contact with demonic energy, it would turn bl00d red.

In ancient times, the Purple Calamus Flower often appeared on battlefields. Later, with the massive cultivation in the cultivation world, the flower became common. But in the last thousand years, demons learned how to disguise their demonic energy, so the flower’s ability to identify them was greatly reduced, making it just an ornamental flower.

Why would there be so many Purple Calamus Flowers around Qin Su’s residence?

Qin Su’s residence was at a high point on the Baiwu Peak. From above, countless Purple Calamus Flowers looked like a rolling purple sea. Below them were towering rocks and mountains. Cultivators flew through them on their swords. Further down, in the distance, was the majestic gate of the Tianxuan Sect. The huge white marble gate was like a striking barrier, clearly separating the cultivation world from the mortal world.

Compared to this strange cultivation world, Tang Huan actually preferred the lively mortal world. But the sect required disciples to be at the late-stage Foundation Establishment before they could go down the mountain on their own. Tang Huan’s cultivation was still shallow, and she had only recently entered the Foundation Establishment stage. At her current cultivation speed, she would probably need to cultivate for another three to five years before she could go down the mountain.

…

Thinking about her low cultivation, Tang Huan sighed softly and squatted on the ground, her gaze unconsciously falling on her surroundings. Her eyes suddenly fixed on something.

Tang Huan couldn’t help but take two steps forward.

Not far from her, the roots of the Purple Calamus Flowers twisted and turned together, forming a nest-like shape. When Tang Huan looked at it, she happened to meet a pair of beady eyes…

The eyes widened when they saw Tang Huan. Tang Huan didn’t know why, but she felt that the bird’s gaze looked familiar. Before Tang Huan could react, as if a fuse had been lit, a raging fire suddenly ignited in its eyes. A large, pure white bird with long tail feathers flew out from behind the flower roots and shrieked as it attacked Tang Huan!

Did I disturb the bird’s rest?

Tang Huan took a few steps back, but the large bird wouldn’t give up. It shrieked and chased after Tang Huan. It looked so desperate, as if Tang Huan were its sworn enemy!

But Tang Huan had never seen a bird like this before.

Tang Huan was forced to retreat, even to the edge of the cliff. She had no choice but to summon her flying sword.

But the bird still chased after her relentlessly.

Don’t be fooled by how beautiful the bird looked; it was incredibly fierce. Its expression was ferocious, like an ancient beast, but its spiritual energy was very low and couldn’t cause any harm to Tang Huan.

Thinking that it might be a bird raised by Qin Su, Tang Huan didn’t bother to fight it. She just kept retreating in the air, but she unexpectedly bumped into someone…

Tang Huan turned around and, after seeing who it was, she cursed inwardly. She quickly moved away, but the bird’s bright, black eyes lit up. It quickly dived from the air toward the person.

Unlike its fierceness toward Tang Huan, the bird chirped happily and nuzzled Ren Jingmu’s face, affectionately settling on his shoulder, all while Ren Jingmu’s face looked pale.
