After the Gender Swap, I Was Forced to Rule the Celestial Palace Chapter 13 13: Hidden Ten-Star Disciple

anwhile, at the Yaochi Immortal Palace, in the Main Hall.

[Ding! Ergency mission triggered! A hidden ten-star potential Disciple has been detected in a crisis!]

[Target Location: One hundred and thirty miles southeast, naless cave!]

[System warm reminder: If the Host doesn't go now, this good seedling is going to be "eaten" by soone~]

A series of urgent and strangely teasing System notification sounds exploded in Gu Han's mind.

Gu Han's eyes snapped open, and she imdiately sat up from the Cloud Bed.

"A hidden ten-star potential Disciple?"

"And caught in such a bizarre crisis?"

Gu Han hurriedly spread her Divine Sense toward the southeast.

A distance of a hundred miles was crystal clear under her vast Divine Sense.

Instantly, she "saw" the scene inside the cave.

A beautiful young girl with torn clothes and blurred eyes was lying on the ground, her face full of despair.

A wretched-looking old man, wearing a lecherous grin, was preparing to unfasten the girl's clothes.

"Holy crap! This old guy is way too shaless!"

Gu Han couldn't help but curse, her eyes filled with disdain.

While she wasn't exactly a saint, she absolutely could not tolerate such acts of coercion.

With a slight thought, her figure vanished from the spot.

Inside the cave.

Liu Ruyan closed her eyes in despair, tears sliding down silently.

Just as she gathered her last shred of spiritual energy, preparing to shatter her Divine Soul to seek release—

The space inside the cave rippled without warning.

An indescribable, ethereal Aura instantly filled the cramped space.

Ti seed to have been paused at this mont.

The Old Man in Red Robe's hand froze in mid-air, the smile on his face hardening and transforming into boundless horror.

He felt like a tiny insect gripped by an invisible giant hand, unable to even move a finger!

Even his thoughts ceased to function under this Aura.

Liu Ruyan also felt this Aura and forced her blurred eyes open.

She saw the space in the cave distort slightly as a figure appeared out of thin air.

The newcor wore a moon-white long dress, the hem fluttering without wind, appearing as if starlight were flowing upon it.

A head of silver hair, white as frost and snow, was draped behind her, with a few strands brushing against her perfectly lined jaw.

Her face was shrouded in a faint, hazy glow, making it impossible to see clearly.

One could only vaguely see a perfect silhouette and a pair of beautiful, calm, and rippleless eyes.

The Old Man in Red Robe's teeth began to chatter uncontrollably as boundless fear subrged him.

With this style, this Aura, and this terrifying way of appearing, was this soone he could afford to provoke?

"Sen... Senior..."

He was clearly a very discerning person and instinctively wanted to beg for rcy.

However, Gu Han didn't even spare him a glance.

She simply raised her hand and threw a slap in his direction.

The movent was as casual as swatting a fly.

Poof!

There was no world-shaking explosion, nor was there any brilliant burst of light.

The Old Man in Red Robe's body, along with the frozen expression on his face, was like a sand sculpture crushed by an invisible giant palm.

He silently turned into dust, leaving not a single trace behind.

Liu Ruyan's remaining sanity went blank, shocked by this understated yet utterly terrifying scene.

No hand seals, no incantations, she couldn't even sense any obvious spiritual energy fluctuations... With just a casual wave, a Golden Core Realm evil cultivator was gone?

What level of powerhouse was this?!

Just then, the effects of the "Hehuan Pill" flared up again, subrging her remaining consciousness once more.

"Hot... so hot... save... save ..."

She murmured unconsciously, her restrained body twisting slightly due to the drug's power, her eyes completely losing focus.

Gu Han finished off that old geezer and turned her gaze toward the girl twisting incessantly on the ground.

Her brow furrowed slightly, and she raised her hand again, giving a gentle wave toward Liu Ruyan.

A stream of cool, pure spiritual energy, containing a mysterious Dao charm, fell like moonlight, enveloping Liu Ruyan.

The spiritual energy entered her body, washing through her ridians both dominantly and gently.

Wherever it passed, the burning lust poison lted away like snow, being rapidly cleansed and neutralized.

"Mnh..."

Liu Ruyan let out a comfortable low moan, and the hazy red flush in her eyes receded at a visible rate.

Her frantic heartbeat and burning body temperature also quickly settled down.

A few breaths later, the mist in her eyes cleared completely, and her mind regained its clarity.

She blinked and saw her current situation—

Her clothes were in disarray, and that silver-haired Fairy who had saved her was standing nearby, watching her.

Boom—!

Liu Ruyan's face instantly turned so red it looked like it might drip blood!

She scrambled to pull together her slightly torn clothing, so ashad she nearly fainted.

"Sen... Senior... I... I..."

Liu Ruyan was incoherent, not daring to look up at Gu Han at all.

Looking at her looking like she wanted to vanish on the spot, Gu Han also felt like laughing.

But she maintained her expert deanor on the surface, gently waving her sleeve as a soft spiritual energy wrapped around Liu Ruyan.

As the spiritual energy circulated, it transford into a plain long dress, fitting her perfectly.

"The poison has been neutralized!"

Gu Han's voice was calm, revealing no emotion.

Feeling the comfortable, well-fitting clothes on her body, Liu Ruyan's panic and sha lessened slightly.

She took a deep breath, forcing herself to calm down.

Then, she knelt on the ground without hesitation and, in the most respectful posture, bowed deeply to Gu Han:

"Junior Liu Ruyan thanks Senior for the life-saving grace!"

"Junior is willing to serve Senior as a beast of burden to repay this great kindness!"

Her voice carried the tremor of soone who had survived a disaster, but it also held imnse determination and awe.

Destroying a Golden Core with a raised hand, neutralizing lust poison with a wave... this silver-haired Fairy, who was even more beautiful than herself, was definitely a big shot!

Even if she wasn't a big shot, with that appearance and Aura, she must have a crowd of powerful simps by her side.

Gu Han looked at the girl kneeling before her, naturally unaware of the ssy thoughts in her head.

The System interface automatically surfaced information about her.

[Na: Liu Ruyan]

[Age: Nineteen]

[Appearance: Devastatingly beautiful]

[Potential: Hidden Ten-Star (Not Awakened)]

[Cultivation: Qi Refining Ninth Layer Peak]

[Status: Minor injuries, weak, emotionally agitated]

[Loyalty: 50 (Deeply Grateful)]

[Special: Reborn (Requires further confirmation)]

Oh? She's also a Reborn?

Gu Han's interest was piqued.

She hadn't expected this Liu Ruyan to have such a background!

However, now was clearly not the ti for a deep investigation.

"You may rise."

Gu Han said indifferently,

"This Seat observes that your Aptitude is acceptable. I wonder if you are willing to beco my Disciple?"

Liu Ruyan looked up sharply, her eyes erupting with unbelievable light!

"Be... beco Senior's Disciple?!"

A wave of pleasant surprise subrged her.

"I am willing! I am willing!"

Liu Ruyan hurriedly kowtowed three tis, her voice choking with excitent,

"Liu Ruyan pays respects to Master."

[Ding! Congratulations to the Host for recruiting a Disciple (Liu Ruyan)!]

[Potential Assessnt: Hidden Ten-Star, ets the criteria!]

[Congratulations Host, you have received the 'peerless immortal seed' Gift Pack!]

[The gift pack has been placed in the System warehouse...]

Listening to the System prompts and looking at the excited new Disciple before her, Gu Han felt satisfied.

The Yaochi Immortal Palace finally no longer had just her and A Yao.

Although the na Liu Ruyan sounded a bit ominous, with the System in hand, she was untainted by any Karma.

She waved her sleeve, and a gentle spiritual energy lifted Liu Ruyan up.

"Since you have entered the sect, follow back first."

As her voice fell, space rippled again, and the two figures vanished from the spot.

Only the empty cave remained, witnessing everything that had just occurred.
