Villainous Undercover (12)

Song Xu Yi never imagined that things would turn out this way.

She knew that Fu Xi Yu would eventually kill Lu Dun, but why did Master Song say that Fu Xi Yu intended to perish with Lu Dun?

In the plot summary that Song Xu Yi read, it didn't mention what would happen to Fu Xi Yu. All she knew was that after killing Lu Dun, Fu Xi Yu would lead the disciples of the Demon Sect to heavily injure the righteous sect members and force them into the Miasma Valley. Then, the male protagonist, Song Xu, would listen to the resounding cheers of victory from the Demon Sect's cannons and fall into a deep sleep.

At the time of reading, Song Xu Yi didn't pay much attention, but now she realized something suspicious: Fu Xi Yu, apart from injuring a few righteous sect members, didn't actually kill anyone from the righteous sect. She even left the people from the Medical Valley, who were close to her, outside the Demon Sect. In the face of the righteous sect's invasion, the Demon Sect would naturally gather all their forces, with everyone present…

Was that resounding cannon fire really just cannon fire? Or… was it the sound of an explosion?

……

For a moment, Song Xu Yi connected all the clues together.

On the other side, Master Song looked at Song Xu Yi with a hint of apology in her eyes. “Xu Yi, I know you have many unanswered questions, but at the moment, I can't explain everything to you. It involves the grievances of many ancestors and has led to Xi Yu's indifference towards everything in this world except seeking revenge. But one day, you will come to know that Xi Yu is a good girl burdened with far more than you can imagine…”

Tears welled up in Song Xu Yi's eyes uncontrollably.

She couldn't express to Master Song that she already had a general idea of the whole truth. She could only desperately suppress the tears in her eyes, lower her head, and nod. “I understand that there are still many things in this world worth cherishing. I will find a way to give Senior Sister something to look forward to in this world and live well…”

Song Xu Yi could understand Fu Xi Yu's determination to wipe away all the filth and ugliness in this world at once, but Fu Xi Yu shouldn't have dragged herself into it—

She was supposed to deserve the best of everything in this world.

Fu Xi Yu woke up two days later, still feeling groggy.

In the midst of her drowsiness, she had a dream, once again reliving the turbulent journey of her life.

Ever since she could remember, she had been confined to a small courtyard in the middle of the Demon Sect.

In the courtyard, there was her ailing mother and a wet nurse surnamed Fu.

At that time, she didn't have a name yet. The wet nurse called her “Miss,” and her mother called her “Nan Nan.”

Even though her mother appeared sickly and exhausted, it did nothing to diminish her beauty. Her mother remained a rare beauty to behold. She would gently braid Fu Xi Yu's hair, sing songs, and tell her stories of when she was a young healer, saving lives. The person who appeared most frequently in her mother's stories was her senior sister. It was only when she talked about her senior sister that a smile would grace her mother's face.

The wet nurse once tearfully told Fu Xi Yu that her mother had lost the will to live and that her sole purpose for staying alive was for her.

In truth, Fu Xi Yu learned everything from the whispers of the Demon Sect members who delivered their meals. For example, she discovered that her mother had taken a man by force, but originally, she had only intended to use him as a cover. She had no intentions towards him. She had planned to endure the difficult period of internal cultivation on her own. However, she never expected the man to take advantage of her when she was in a confused state and drug her, resulting in her being violated and giving birth to Fu Xi Yu.

The man turned the tables and claimed that it was her mother who had forced him while she was in a confused state. He sweet-talked, saying that he cared for her mother and wanted to protect her and the infant Fu Xi Yu.

Her mother believed him. Her mother didn't love the man, but in an attempt to make amends, she revealed her unique martial arts technique to him, helping him advance his inner strength. However, little did she know that once he possessed the technique, he turned the tables and seized the position of sect leader, imprisoning her mother and Fu Xi Yu within the small courtyard.

The reason her mother willingly stayed in the small courtyard was simply because she didn't know the truth of what had happened all those years ago. She believed that she had wronged the man initially, unaware of his ambitious nature.

So, from a young age, Fu Xi Yu learned to be understanding, hoping that her mother could live a little longer. However, in the end, she couldn't keep her mother with her. When Fu Xi Yu was 5 years old, her mother's condition worsened. Occasionally, she learned the truth from others. In her final moments, using forbidden medicine, her mother escaped with Fu Xi Yu and the wet nurse.

It was then that Fu Xi Yu realized her frail and sickly mother possessed such formidable power. Along the way, her mother effortlessly killed numerous members of the Demon Sect. That night, Fu Xi Yu saw the sky for the first time, escaping from the Demon Sect that resembled a hell on earth. But on that very night, she lost her mother. In her final moments, her mother, shedding tears, inadvertently left a scar on Fu Xi Yu's face.

Fu Xi Yu did not harbor resentment towards her mother. She knew it was her mother's way of protecting her. Fu Xi Yu and the wet nurse buried her mother deep in the mountains, planting orchids—her mother's favorite flowers—by her grave.

Before her mother passed away, she wished for Fu Xi Yu to refrain from getting involved in the conflicts of the martial world. She urged her to be cautious, not to disclose her identity to anyone. She entrusted the wet nurse with raising her, hidden and with a new name. Thus, Fu Xi Yu acquired her own name, taking the wet nurse's surname and being named Xi Yu, which means “cherished words.”

The two of them lived in a remote village. Fu Xi Yu learned hunting and cooking from the wet nurse, and despite their modest and frugal lifestyle, they were happy. She got to experience the outside world and even had a small dog, as fluffy as a snowball. She adored the dog and her heart would fill with joy at the sight of it. Her favorite activity was hanging meat bones on tree branches and then hanging the branches on her back, letting the dog chase her around the village, wagging its tail in excitement.

However, when Fu Xi Yu was 7 years old, she returned from the deep mountains carrying her hunting spoils only to find the lifeless bodies of her dog and the wet nurse.

A strikingly handsome man, with disdain in his gaze, kicked the dog's belly with the tip of his shoe and glanced at Fu Xi Yu. “Yu Rudi, you're truly heartless! You actually dared to leave a scar on your own face…”

Fu Xi Yu didn't know what came over her. She didn't look at the bodies of the wet nurse and the dog. Despite her nails digging deeply into her palms and her heart being twisted into a knot, drowning in overwhelming sorrow…

She lifted her head and smiled: “I hate her.”

“Finally, you've come, Father.”

……

Fu Xi Yu entered the Taiji Sect.

Lu Dun trusted Fu Xi Yu, as he himself valued appearance and power greatly. He assumed that Fu Xi Yu also cared about appearance and power, and would naturally resent Yu Rudi, who had marred her beauty. He deliberately delegated power to Fu Xi Yu, allowing her to practice the Immortal Annihilation Tribulation technique. He even intentionally mentioned the scar on Fu Xi Yu's face to deepen her resentment towards Yu Rudi. However, he didn't know that Fu Xi Yu had made up her mind at the age of 7. From then on, her sole purpose in life was to destroy him, his Democ Sect, and to perish together with him, eradicating his tainted bloodline from the world completely!

When Fu Xi Yu turned 10, she met her mother's cherished senior sister for the first time. It was also the first time she experienced the chaotic inner energy of Lu Dun. Her entire body felt as if it were being devoured by countless ants, and she wished she could die on the spot. The Medical Valley initially refused to accept anyone from the Taiji Sect, until Lu Dun revealed that she was Yu Rudi's daughter…

Trembling, the Valley Master, Master Song, embraced her and brought her into the Medical Valley. She spared no effort in treating Fu Xi Yu's internal injuries and the wounds on her face. For the first two years, she didn't bother speaking to Fu Xi Yu. It wasn't until one day, on her mother's memorial day, when Fu Xi Yu secretly folded a paper butterfly orchid to burn as an offering to her mother, but Master Song caught sight of it…

Master Song seemed to have realized something and began teaching Fu Xi Yu medical skills. She discouraged her from seeking revenge and even considered passing down the knowledge of the Medical Valley to her…

But Fu Xi Yu knew she was unworthy: how could she, with Lu Dun's tainted bloodline, deserve to inherit the Medical Valley?

Furthermore, her heart had long turned cold, and she had lost everything she cared about. She couldn't possibly become a healer and save lives. The only thing that kept her going was her desire to annihilate Lu Dun.

Fu Xi Yu never expected to encounter Song Xu Yi.

The moment she laid eyes on Song Xu Yi, a sense of joy welled up in her heart. She was like a soft, white ball, with damp, glistening eyes even more endearing than the little dog she once had. She couldn't help but pinch her cheek, which felt softer than the touch of clouds in the sky…

So, for once, she acted with kindness. She purposely spoke coldly, hoping that Song Xu Yi and Song Xu would retreat. After all, she knew that Lu Dun favored Song Xu, a boy with outstanding looks, as a reserve of inner energy. She convinced Song Xu to leave, but she didn't expect little ball to express a desire to join in…

How could this filthy sect deserve such a pure little girl? Yet, Fu Xi Yu couldn't suppress a hidden joy in her heart. Now that Little Ball had joined, could she occasionally hug her? Pinch her cheeks…

But Fu Xi Yu restrained her thoughts. She called upon two strict elders to help test Song Xu Yi's aptitude. Little Ball was so delicate; she surely wouldn't withstand the pain of the aptitude test. Then she wouldn't entertain the thought of taking her as a disciple. However, she didn't expect Little Ball to endure it.

She had no reason to refuse anymore.

And because Little Ball came from the Song family, Lu Dun feared that she carried a map of the Demon Sect. He specifically took her in and instructed Fu Xi Yu to keep an eye on her. Fu Xi Yu hadn't anticipated Lu Dun's arrangement, but she felt a shameful sense of joy. She meticulously cleaned her courtyard and bathroom, obtained a token and sect attire for Little Ball…

Unable to resist, she went to greet Little Ball that day, unsure of how to interact with her. So she used the tricks she used to amuse dogs. Worried that wet hair would harm her, she untied Little Ball's hair. Despite knowing that Lu Dun had no interest in the little girl, she purposely spoke ill of Little Ball in front of him, just to keep him away from her.

But Little Ball seemed angry, puffing up her cheeks and ignoring her. Fu Xi Yu reflected for a long time before finding the reason behind it, understanding her own foolishness. She repented and slowly approached Little Ball, realizing that she was even more lovable than she had imagined.

Just being together with Little Ball, without even needing to pinch her cheeks, just quietly watching her, brought immense joy to Fu Xi Yu from the depths of her heart.

These beautiful days felt like stolen treasures.

Little Ball had a kind heart. She forgave Fu Xi Yu for her previous recklessness and even started to feel sorry for her. She invited Fu Xi Yu to celebrate festivals together.

Fu Xi Yu knew she shouldn't linger, but she still wanted to protect Xi Yu a little longer, to give her the best of everything. So, in secret, she began studying methods to secretly counteract the backlash of the Immortal Annihilation Tribulation.

She secretly researched and developed a method, one that was extremely perilous, so she didn't even tell Aunt Song about it: When Lu Dun was transmitting his inner power into her body, instead of suppressing it, she allowed his inner power to freely flow and cleanse her meridians. Her meridians expanded greatly, and ultimately, Lu Dun's inner power merged with her own…

During the intense flow of inner power, as her meridians were forcibly opened, Fu Xi Yu was in excruciating pain, almost unable to bear it. But she always remembered her promise to Xu Yi, that she would accompany her on a journey through the martial world. She wasn't a good senior sister: born with impurity, always causing distress and heartache for Xu Yi. She absolutely couldn't break her word to Xu Yi.

Fortunately, she didn't break her word. She endured it.

Fu Xi Yu opened her eyes to the bright daylight filling the room, but even more radiant than the sunlight were the eyes of the girl. She heard the most beautiful voice in the world and saw the most beautiful smile. It was her Little Ball, whom she had raised with her own hands, smiling at her more beautifully than any flower.

“Sister, you're finally awake!”
