It was also because of this bout of crying
That Xin Lanying unexpectedly found a ghostly technique in a cave halfway up the mountain.
The Demon Devouring Technique!
Cultivators could enhance themselves by absorbing the ghostly energy from others.
This technique, which allowed one to plunder the cultivation of others, was the least reliant on talent.
For Xin Lanying, this ghostly technique seed custom-made for her.
She tightly gripped the Demon Devouring Technique in her hands.
It was like a person on the verge of dying of thirst in the desert holding their last bottle of water.
She held it with all her strength, with all her focus!
Xin Lanying knew very well that this technique could perhaps change her fate.
But before that, she absolutely could not let anyone discover this strange technique.
She needed to hide it, waiting for the right mont to soar to the sky!
That night, Xin Lanying returned ho.
Faced with her father's favoritism and the injustice of her environnt, she knew very well that causing a scene would have no effect, and it would only invite disdain from others.
So, she could only disguise herself as harmless, in order to live better.
This would also lower everyone’s guard around her.
It must be said that ghostly creatures with cunning minds always adapt quickly.
Xin Lanying had almost managed to make everyone like her.
It was because she was obedient enough and posed no threat.
But there were always exceptions.
Like Ye Yu, the disciple accepted by her sister Xin Wan'en.
For so reason, this little fellow always looked at her with a hint of hostility in his eyes.
Xin Lanying tried to win his favor with candy,
But instead, she was t with a sharp rebuke.
"The way you smile seems fake, I even suspect you’ve laced this candy with sothing."
Upon hearing this, Xin Lanying was stunned.
After all, Ye Yu was only eight years old at the ti.
How could he say such a thing?
Xin Lanying wanted to explain, but found that Ye Yu had already left.
This made her quite unhappy.
Afterwards, Xin Lanying tried to get closer to Ye Yu, but found that he didn’t respond to either softness or harshness.
Eventually, she had to give up.
After all, Ye Yu was just Xin Wan'en’s disciple, not a true mber of the Xin family, so there was no need to invest too much energy.
For Xin Lanying, the most important thing was gaining the approval of the higher-ups in the Xin family.
Later,
Xin Wan'en’s cultivation level stagnated, which ✪ Nоvеlіgһt ✪ (Official version) made Xin Lanying quite happy.
At the sa ti, she was actively looking for external help.
In a chance encounter, she unexpectedly crossed paths with Cao Yongyu, the sect master of the Graveflower Ghost Manor.
Xin Lanying knew very well that there weren’t many ghost cultivators who could help her destroy the entire Xin family, and this person was one of them.
To seize this opportunity,
Xin Lanying opened her acting skills to the fullest.
She perfected the white lotus act, balancing between resistance and attraction.
When the at was presented to Cao Yongyu, he, with the mindset of "why not?", devoured it in one bite.
But what he didn’t expect was that this piece of at also ca with other gifts.
When Xin Lanying told him that she was willing to collaborate with him to destroy the Xin family,
Cao Yongyu’s expression was one of shock.
He even took it as a joke.
He thought it was just the ignorant words of a rebellious ghostly girl.
After all, who would want to destroy their own family?
But who knew, just a little while later, when the head of the Xin family, Xin Zhanguan, brought back the Ghost Immortal weapon from the secret realm of Humo County,
Xin Lanying imdiately contacted Cao Yongyu.
She said that this matter could be the breakthrough to not only destroy the Xin family but also to obtain the Ghost Immortal weapon for free.
Upon hearing this, Cao Yongyu imdiately led people, under a fabricated excuse, to cause a commotion at the Xin family.
He ordered his n to ransack the Xin family’s treasures amidst the chaos.
Originally, the head of the family, Xin Zhanguan, was also on the kill list.
Was he really spared because the Xin family’s ancestor pleaded for him?
Of course not. It was Xin Lanying who deliberately let Cao Yongyu spare his life.
She claid he would be of great use later.
Cao Yongyu did not refuse, and by destroying the Xin family, he had gained many benefits.
He imdiately promised Xin Lanying the position of sect master’s wife.
Xin Lanying happily accepted and said she would tidy up the Xin family before going.
Cao Yongyu didn’t think much of it and took his people back to the Graveflower Ghost Manor that sa day.
But the reason Xin Lanying spared her father Xin Zhanguan’s life was for one thing.
To destroy her sister Xin Wan'en.
Having lived as sisters for hundreds of years,
Xin Lanying knew very well what kind of person her sister was.
For their father, she would definitely sacrifice everything.
So, Xin Lanying had already placed the Ghostly Spirit Gathering Pill inside Xin Zhanguan before he left.
This pill could gather all the ghostly energy inside his body into one place.
As things developed, exactly as Xin Lanying had predicted,
Xin Wan'en spared no effort to save her father, even injuring her soul and origin, falling to a lower realm, and only stopping after fainting.
This scene of a loving father and dutiful daughter made Xin Lanying extrely uncomfortable.
After having her unconscious sister taken away,
In fact, by then, Xin Zhanguan could have survived because of the abundant ghostly energy injected into his body.
But Xin Lanying took out the Ghostly Spirit Gathering Pill.
"Pill removes ghostly energy!"
Without the ghostly energy to support him, Xin Zhanguan couldn’t suppress his injuries, and after a few breaths, his soul dissipated.
But Xin Lanying showed no hesitation, using the Demon Devouring Technique to devour all the ghostly energy inside him.
That night, Xin Lanying reached the peak of the Harmonization Realm.
With her newfound strength, she had once thought about killing Xin Wan'en and all the mbers of the Xin family, then living a new life.
But this thought was quickly dismissed.
Because Xin Lanying believed that making the now useless Xin Wan'en suffer even more humiliation would be a better fate.
Letting the Xin family slowly lose everything would be the most painful outco.
With this thought in mind, Xin Lanying left, heading straight to the Graveflower Ghost Manor to beco the sect master’s wife.
Later, when she heard that the Xin family had been bullied and that Xin Wan'en had been rejected by the Chu family of Xianyin City,
Xin Lanying was truly pleased.
But what she didn’t expect was that, just three years later, Xin Wan'en returned to her peak and ca back stronger than ever.
She even destroyed the Chu family of Xianyin City!
Xin Lanying was truly furious.
But what made her even angrier was that the sect master of the Graveflower Ghost Manor, her own man, had started to show interest in Xin Wan'en and even thought about recruiting her.
This was sothing Xin Lanying could never tolerate.
She knew just how talented Xin Wan'en was!
At this point in the story,
Xin Lanying’s face twisted into a grimace, and she whispered to Xin Wan'en, “My dear sister, why can’t you just die?”
“Why, even now, do you co to disturb my life and tornt ?”
