Great Love Immortal Venerate: Why are all my fairies yandere?

Dawn City had long enjoyed seasons of favourable weather, without drought or disaster.

Even in the most tragic years across the Mortal World, the flower boats in the city hadn't ceased their rocking, nor had the music and dancing halted; the brothels still displayed their usual fireworks.

This wasn't due to celestial phenomena, but human effort.

But in these recent days.

Dawn City had been continuously gloomy.

Rain curtains fell like screens, and droplets shimmered like fish scales.

The grand and magnificent Dawn City hadn't seen a glimpse of the sun for three whole days.

No one dared to complain.

Everyone knew that this was because the great Divine Emperor had passed away.

When the Divine Emperor died, according to tradition, the Heavenly Gods would weep for nine days.

After nine days, when the new emperor ascended the throne, the first ray of sunlight would fall upon his crown, signifying the birth of a new era.

After Xu Yuan and Liu Ruoxue restored their cultivation levels, they travelled nearly a quarter of a continent by riding the Spatial Transmission Formation. After two days of strenuous travel, they finally arrived here on the third day.

At that moment, Dawn City was clad in white, as if the cold winter had yet to pass.

The two controlled their swords in the air, quietly gazing at this largest city in the world from a great distance.

This was a city that hardly seemed like a city; it was more apt to call it a small country.

The city walls, towering tens of thousands of feet high, flickered with countless spiritual lights. Despite thousands of years of weathering, the city gate still looked brand new and shiny, and the guards at the city gate, enveloped in Foundation Establishment auras, unwittingly evoked a sense of absurdity.

Foundation Establishment cultivators here could only serve as gatekeepers.

The two exchanged glances and simultaneously descended to the ground.

Around Dawn City a No-Fly Formation had been set up, making it necessary to enter on foot.

While in the sky, they hadn't felt much, but as soon as they touched ground, they immediately sensed the immense scale of this gigantic city.

Looking up, they couldn't see the watchtowers; looking left or right, they couldn't see the ends of the city walls. This city, whose boundaries couldn't be seen even from the sky, seemed to bisect the entire sky, standing mightily between heaven and earth.

But the feeling of awe was momentary.

After all, they had grown accustomed to mountains as high as Sword Peak, which could almost touch the heavens, during these days; not to mention the foot-height of Dawn City.

In the mortal realm

After they presented tokens from the Sword Sect, they faced almost no obstruction and entered the city.

As soon as they entered the city, they almost instantly felt a sweeping sense of sorrow coming towards them.

Whether true or not, at least at this moment, everywhere they looked, they could see the grief of the city's residents.

"By the way, your Master mentioned a Purple Bamboo Sword Spirit in his sword manual, do you know who that is?"

Xu Yuan asked softly.

"..."

After a brief silence, Liu Ruoxue's face revealed an extremely odd expression.

"What's wrong?"

Xu Yuan, still unaware of the intricacies, asked.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

"Do you remember the Sword Cleansing Pool?"

"I do, so what about it?"

"She is the Sword Spirit of the Master's personal sword, and that Sword Cleansing Pool was actually the footbath water of her Primordial Spirit Magic Artifact."

After saying this, Liu Ruoxue further teased with a haunting question.

"When you were drinking it energetically, didn't you smell anything or recognize that it was footbath water?"

Her tone was casual, as if teasing, but with prior lessons learned, how could Xu Yuan be fooled again.

"It was fine, at that time I only tasted your flavor."

Withstanding Liu Ruoxue's unusual gaze, Xu Yuan responded unflinchingly.

What about footbath water.

Others might not even have such a privilege to drink it.

"Smooth talker."

Liu Ruoxue blushed slightly, remembering she had also wondered about this issue, and chided him coquettishly.

"Where should we go to find them now?"

Xu Yuan quickly changed the subject, as continuing the conversation might accidentally lead him into another verbal trap, which could create big trouble.

He had come to realize this.

Liu Ruoxue was trouble as well.

However, at least compared to the others, her issues were not that big.

As long as sweet-talking could solve the problem, it wasn't a big problem.

"The Sword Sect has an outpost in Dawn City, we should head there,"

Liu Ruoxue thought for a moment and said softly.

...

Despite the sorrowful atmosphere throughout the city, compared to the coldness of the Heavenly Dao Sect or the Sword Peak, The Mortal World was still much livelier.

At night, the brilliant lights illuminated thousands of households, and amidst the faint sounds of crying, the calls of vendors were incessant.

The two had been walking on the flat, wide bluestone road for a long time but had not even completed one percent of the ancient city.

Along the way, Liu Ruoxue, though appearing detached, occasionally stopped to look around, revealing her intentions to Xu Yuan.

No matter how ascetic, it seemed she was still a girl who liked shopping—that was normal.

Though anxious, he did not urge her too much and patiently accompanied her.

Moreover, Liu Ruoxue's stunningly divine beauty, like a Heavenly Immortal descending to earth, also drew much attention.

But fortunately, the people of Dawn City were worldly and measured, clearly understanding that she must be a fairy from some Sect, and did not dare to approach her.

The prettier the beauty, the greater the trouble.

Everyone understood this principle.

Unless one thought they had sufficient strength and backing, no one dared to harbour thoughts about her.

"We've arrived."

The two stopped in front of a store, and Liu Ruoxue suddenly spoke softly.

Her voice was very pleasant, akin to a stream trickling.

"Arrived?"

Xu Yuan looked at the shop she was indicating, his expression quite perplexed.

It was an ordinary fabric shop with only an old woman, half asleep at the counter.

"Indeed, right here,"

Liu Ruoxue nodded and explained, "Each of the eight Sects has a point in Dawn City to prevent the demon clan from sneaking in and secretly sealing off Dawn City to prevent aid. To prevent these points from being disconnected, the locations are not fixed and change every hour, and even the Seal Gestures required to enter change. My stopping and looking around was to locate the exact position of our outpost."

"I see,"

Xu Yuan nodded.

Just as the two were about to enter, two drunk young men suddenly barged in from the side.

"Hey hey, whose beauty is this? Such a pretty face, come, let me have a look!"

"She really is quite stunning, obviously from out of town, very nice indeed..."

"It seems we have really struck it lucky today."

The two men burped, and while speaking, started to reach out towards Xu Yuan's face.

Perhaps out of self-shame in front of Liu Ruoxue's pure, untainted snowy aura, they targeted Xu Yuan, who seemed easier to bully due to the Illusory Realm's disguise.

Liu Ruoxue's delicate eyebrows twitched, but before she could act,

Your adventure continues at empire

The next moment, a fierce Sword Intent burst forth from behind the alley, targeting the men's necks.

"What fools dare to touch my senior brother?"

Simultaneously, an icy, crisp, and angry voice rang out from the rain.
