Chapter 99: Is the One Who Destroys the Immortal World My Sister?

Xu Moli’s mood improved quite a bit.

It happened suddenly, subtly.

Xu Xi didn’t understand why the change occurred, so he asked.

“What’s wrong, Mo Li?”

“Nothing, it’s just that I feel happy to be reunited with my elder brother.”

The girl’s eyes carried a hint of a smile, and under the sunlight by the window, her usual cold demeanor softened, revealing a touch of the cuteness and innocence from her childhood.

Though it was brief, though it lasted only a moment.

She quickly returned to her usual cold, immortal-like appearance.

At the same time, the kitchen in the courtyard was eerily quiet. The Witch was silently using her Time Authority to halt the flow of time for the hot tea and sweets, sitting still as she stared at Xu Xi’s door.

This way, she could deliver them to her mentor in the most perfect state later.

…

“Mo Li, can you tell me what you experienced after the Heavenly Sword Sect’s great battle?”

In the bedroom, Xu Xi asked Xu Moli.

Xu Xi had already gotten a rough idea of his sister’s exploits in the Cultivation World from Li Wanshou.

But these kinds of things were definitely known in more detail by the person involved.

Xu Xi was curious.

After the first simulation ended, how did his sister go from an ordinary cultivator to slaughtering her way into the Immortal Realm? How did she keep getting stronger, to the point where even her tears became so ridiculously powerful?

“Whatever Elder Brother wants to know, Mo Li will tell you everything.”

Xu Moli nodded lightly and began recounting the series of events that happened after the demonic cultivator invasion at the Heavenly Sword Sect.

Leaving the Heavenly Sword Sect.

Hunting down all the demonic cultivators in the Cultivation World.

Gathering rare treasures and creating her own Daoist magic and divine abilities.

Xu Moli’s tone was calm, and the experiences she recounted matched the information provided by Li Wanshou, but with more details and a stronger sense of immersion.

Hearing this, Xu Xi’s expression remained relatively calm.

But then, as his sister recounted her experiences in the Immortal Realm, Xu Xi’s eyes gradually widened, and his head filled with question marks.

Not yet at the Immortal level, yet she forced her way into the Immortal Realm by opening the Heavenly Gate with her sword and fought on equal footing with the Immortal Gate guardians?

After achieving True Immortality, she could calmly retreat even when facing the Immortal Emperor?

Ah.

Is my sister this fierce?

Xu Xi was utterly bewildered. He never expected that Cressa’s ridiculously impressive feats could be matched by someone else.

And that someone was his own sister.

“Tsk—”

“Just after becoming an Immortal, she could retreat from the Immortal Emperor, growing stronger with each battle, slaughtering her way through the Immortal Realm?”

“Is this for real?”

Huh? Huh? Huh?

Xu Xi’s face appeared calm, but inside, he was in turmoil, utterly shocked by his sister’s achievements and at a loss for words.

He didn’t know much about Immortals or the Immortal Emperor, only having read snippets in ancient texts.

But that didn’t matter.

Xu Xi knew how powerful and majestic the Immortal Emperor was.

That was the pinnacle of the entire Immortal Realm, the supreme ruler who governed all realms and exerted dominance over the entire Immortal World.

Yet, such a peerless existence, a supreme overlord in any world, was forced into a stalemate by his own sister…

“This is just too unbelievable.”

Xu Xi silently opened the sugar jar.

He popped a candy into his mouth to calm his nerves.

But his sister’s story was far from over. The next wave of information was not only more extensive but also more shocking.

“That Immortal Pill the teacher found, was it you who secretly sent it over?”

“The Immortal Realm being split open, was that also your doing, to elevate Earth?”

“From the very beginning, there was no so-called mastermind behind the scenes, or rather, the mastermind was you?”

“The Immortal Emperor’s fall was also your doing?!”

Crack—

In his shock, Xu Xi bit down hard on the candy, shattering it into pieces that scattered inside his mouth.

The sheer volume of information flooding in at that moment left Xu Xi unsure whether to first吐槽 Li Wanshou’s so-called luck or be stunned by his sister’s godly strength.

Good news: Li Wanshou’s ascension to immortality was thanks to his sister.

Bad news: The Immortal Realm life Li Wanshou hadn’t even had a chance to experience was destroyed by his sister.

“This is really…”

“Well, how should I put it? It’s a bit dizzying.”

Xu Xi took a deep breath.

He rubbed his throbbing temples with his index finger.

Perhaps because he had just been shocked by the Witch’s exploits not long ago, this time, Xu Xi quickly accepted all the things his sister had done.

Killing the Immortal Emperor was outrageous.

Destroying the Immortal Realm was exaggerated.

But in the survival-of-the-fittest world of cultivation, it wasn’t entirely incomprehensible.

The so-called Immortal Realm, in essence, was just a higher-level cultivation world. Destroying it wouldn’t affect much, nor would it cut off the path to immortality.

In comparison, Xu Xi was more concerned about something else.

“Mo Li, when you destroyed those small worlds to elevate Earth, you didn’t harm too many living beings, right?”

“Of course not, Elder Brother.”

The girl replied calmly and naturally.

In a place Xu Xi couldn’t see.

The little finger behind the girl’s back gently traced a line.

In that instant, cause and effect reversed, time flowed backward, and the innocent lives that had accidentally perished during the destruction of the worlds were resurrected by Xu Moli’s will.

Some were integrated into the Boundary Ruins of Earth’s cultivation side.

Others were sent to other small worlds in the multiverse.

As for the demonic cultivators and the mindless magical beasts, they were forever cast into the abyss of eternal destruction.

“Hmm, as long as you’re aware,” Xu Xi said, slightly reassured by Mo Li’s affirmative answer.

He wasn’t a purely good person, but he had no interest in senseless slaughter.

The death of entire worlds’ worth of living beings.

It sounded truly horrifying.

Fortunately, his sister wasn’t the bloodthirsty type. She remained as kind, cute, and moral as she was in her childhood.

“But…”

“Looking at it this way, even if I didn’t initiate Earth’s Spiritual Energy Revival, it’s still inextricably linked to me.”

Xu Xi’s expression was complicated.

What was certain now was that the Boundary Ruins of both the cultivation and magic sides appeared on Earth because of him. In a way, he had become one of the masterminds behind Earth’s transformation.

Even though this wasn’t what Xu Xi had wanted.

“By the way, Mo Li, there’s one more thing I want to ask you.”

“Please go ahead, Elder Brother.”

“When you discovered Earth, had the Spiritual Energy Revival phenomenon already begun?”

“It had already begun.”

“Is that so? Alright, I understand.”

His tongue licked the candy, softening it before slowly swallowing it.

The aftertaste lingered in his mouth.

Warm and sweet.

Xu Xi closed the lid of the sugar jar, his eyes slightly narrowed: “If Mo Li and Cressa only accelerated the Spiritual Energy Revival, then who was the true initiator?”

“Could it be that the Supernatural Administration Bureau’s research was wrong?”

“Was the first wave of Spiritual Energy Revival not an invasion from another world but Earth’s own revival?”

“Still, it’s not a big problem.”

“With Mo Li and Cressa here, no matter what happens, it won’t be a disaster. Even if Earth were to explode on the spot, it could be restored instantly.”
