Ma Xiuzhen was born in a scholarly family in her previous life, which cultivated her gentle and elegant temperament. In her past life, she studied literature but rarely read martial arts novels. When the television drama Lu Feng and Hua Man Lou was airing, her roommate complained to her about the plot being ruined, mentioning how the Flower God and Sword God were destroyed, which piqued her curiosity. She downloaded a copy of Lu Feng's legend but had not had the chance to watch it before she was transported into the world of Lu Feng.
"I was reborn as a baby, and when my parents named me Ma Xiuzhen, I had no awareness that I had become the Ma Xiuzhen from Lu Feng. It wasn't until I was taken to Emei Mountain by Master and became a Senior Sister of the Four Beauties that I realized I had entered the book. Unfortunately, although I know a few main characters from Lu Feng and Hua Man Lou, I have never read the book and do not know what my fate is in it. Therefore, I have been living very cautiously, absolutely not exposing anything that differs from this world while being unaware of the plot!"
Ma Xiuzhen drank the tea that Wu Xuemei brought over, showing a hint of surprise and nostalgia on her face. "Keemun Black Tea? I haven't had it in a long time!"
Keemun Black Tea is a famous tea from Huaguo, praised for its quality with the saying, "Qihong stands out among all, its clear fragrance unmatched." Although historical records trace back to Lu Yu's Tea Classic during the Tang Dynasty, mature black tea products were created by tea farmers in ah Province during the Guangxu Era. Since both the timelines of Red Mansion World and Lufeng World correspond to the Ming Dynasty, naturally, there was no Keemun Black Tea available on the market.
"I have more here; I can give you a can!" Bai Tang had a good impression of Ma Xiuzhen.
"Thank you!" Ma Xiuzhen expressed her gratitude and continued, "In my thirteenth year, various types of travelers began to appear in this world, among which the most flamboyant was my Sister Disciple, Ye Xiuzhu. Unlike me, she crossed over halfway; the former Ye Xiuzhu was a very honest girl who got along well with us three sisters. But now... I wonder if Sister Disciple Ye has successfully reincarnated?"
"She probably has!" Bai Tang simply comforted Ma Xiuzhen.
With red-rimmed eyes, Ma Xiuzhen continued, "The current Ye Xiuzhu is a very self-centered person who always thinks that travelers are superior to natives and that the world should revolve around her. This personality is really hard for me to like. But what confuses me most is that every man who comes into contact with her seems to be enchanted by her, as if their intelligence drops to zero. Even though the main characters from Lu Feng Hua Man Lou, unlike other men who are infatuated with her, treat her better than other women."
Bai Tang was astonished; how could such an unreasonable creature exist in real life!
She took a big gulp of tea from her cup and said, "You study traditional literature; you must not know about the often-mentioned creature online called Mali Su."
"Mali Su?" Ma Xiuzhen truly did not know.
Bai Tang: "A magical creature with rainbow-colored eyes and hair; men are immediately attracted to them upon seeing them. When they encounter their affairs, their intelligence approaches zero!"
Ma Xiuzhen was puzzled: "Ye Xiuzhu has black hair and black eyes."
Bai Tang: "What I just said was an exaggeration. Mali Su is actually a creation of many narcissistic fan authors, a self-replacement created by the author to satisfy their own desires, usually romantic desires, desires for wealth, power, a strong desire for self-expression, and vanity. In a sense, this being is invincible."
"That makes sense!" Ma Xiuzhen frowned. "In the Emei Sect, aside from female disciples, all male disciples, regardless of whether they are seniors or juniors, dote on Ye Xiuzhu. If we sisters have had conflicts with her, Master and several senior brothers all favor Ye Xiuzhu. It turns out they are all influenced by that horse, that..."
"Mali Su," Bai Tang reminded.
Ma Xiuzhen: "Right, right, the influence of Mali Su. Sometimes, the other two Sister Disciples and I feel like they are not themselves anymore. Among them, Master and the eldest senior brother are somewhat better, but the second and third senior brothers believe everything Ye Xiuzhu says without any judgment of their own. Bai Gu Niang, now I understand that this is not what Master and the senior brothers intended. Can I help them regain their true nature?"
Bai Tang: "It's simple. As long as you keep them away from Ye Xiuzhu, without the influence of Mali Su, they will return to normal."
Ma Xiuzhen's expression darkened: "Ye Xiuzhu is an Emei Disciple, so it's impossible to keep her away from Emei Mountain."
"Then just kill her," Bai Tang said calmly. "Strictly speaking, she is not your Sister Disciple, but an enemy occupying your Sister Disciple's body."
"But..." Ma Xiuzhen hesitated.
"If you can't do it, leave it to me." Bai Tang was not someone who had never killed before. Even if she was also a transmigrator, so what? Ma Xiuzhen was different; many other transmigrators had been killed by Ye Xiuzhu. If it weren't for Ma Xiuzhen's calm nature preventing her from being recognized by Ye Xiuzhu, she would likely have died too. This morally corrupt Mali Su posed no pressure for Bai Tang to kill. Moreover, she had not provoked the other party; since the other party wanted to kill her, how could she possibly show mercy?
"I'm not a saint; if someone tries to kill me, I have no reason to forgive that person," Bai Tang stated matter-of-factly. "I just hope you won't spread the word about me killing Ye Xiuzhu. Although I'm not afraid of retaliation from her admirers, I dislike trouble!"
"Are you really going to kill her?" Ma Xiuzhen asked hesitantly.
"Do you have a soft heart?" Bai Tang asked.
Ma Xiuzhen nodded. After all, she was a child raised under the red flag. Although she had been in this world for over a decade and had stepped into the martial world, Ma Xiuzhen had only ever injured people and had never killed anyone.
"Killing is really not good!" Ma Xiuzhen nodded.
"There are many deaths in the martial world every year. Haven't you gotten used to it?" Bai Tang was surprised by Ma Xiuzhen's pure kindness. "Think about those traversers killed by Ye Xiuzhu. Don't you think they are more pitiful?"
Ma Xiuzhen closed her mouth.
……
Ye Xiuzhu's previous life was called Ye Mingzhu. She lived a very hard life, without a father, and her mother could only support their lives by selling vegetables and doing odd jobs. Ye Mingzhu envied the children of wealthy families, envying them for their father's love, countless fun toys, and beautiful clothes... As she grew older, Ye Mingzhu realized that relying on others was not as good as relying on oneself. She worked hard to study and improve herself, finally finding a job after graduation that made her classmates envious.
However, this was just the beginning. Ye Mingzhu set her life goal to find a rich and handsome husband and become an enviable lady. Ye Mingzhu was very good at disguising herself; when it was time, she acted like a good child. After starting school, she pretended to be a pitiful good student who was often bullied by her mother—although Mother Ye often scolded Ye Mingzhu for being discouraged, she never hit her or abused her daughter—gaining the sympathy of teachers to exempt her from school fees. The tuition fees given by Mother Ye were used by her to buy beautiful clothes. After starting work, she was an optimistic newcomer; even when bullied by senior employees, she silently endured while remaining optimistic—actually plotting behind the scenes without anyone noticing. Such an "optimistic, kind-hearted, and enterprising" girl naturally caught the attention of some people, specifically her direct supervisor, the company's general manager Shao Yiming. Shao Yiming had a fiancée, the daughter of a prominent family, Lin Qingchun. However, Shao Yiming did not particularly like the somewhat spoiled and willful Lin Qingchun, so he became interested in Ye Mingzhu, who was completely different from her. In his eyes, everything about this girl was wonderful. The two fell in love.
The subsequent developments were just like many cliché urban romance films: the male lead's parents opposed him abandoning the daughter of a wealthy family for a poor girl; however, young people are always rebellious, and their opposition only fueled his love for Ye Mingzhu. Previously he loved her only seven parts, but because of his parents' opposition, his love for Ye Mingzhu surged to ten parts. The loving parents eventually compromised, but at that moment, the male lead's fiancée reappeared and made things difficult for the female lead in various ways. Unfortunately, all these actions were seen by the male lead (if he happened to see it, would everyone believe it? Certainly not! All of this was designed by Ye Mingzhu), and he grew increasingly disgusted with his fiancée and unceremoniously broke off their engagement.
This Cinderella story saw Ye Mingzhu triumph over the princess and become the prince's partner; naturally, she felt extremely proud. However, her heart was not as magnanimous as she pretended to be. Lin Qingchun had insulted her countless times; she had long harbored resentment against this rich girl. Could victorious Ye Mingzhu let Lin Qingchun go? The answer was no way. Ye Mingzhu secretly took action against Lin Qingchun, only to discover a secret that filled her with rage: it turned out she was actually the true eldest daughter of the Lin family. She and Lin Qingchun were born in the same hospital; Mother Ye, not wanting her daughter to live a hard life like hers, swapped her newborn daughter with another baby from a wealthy family. Upon learning the truth, Ye Mingzhu hated Mother Ye, even though this mother had raised her for over twenty years. She plotted to let Shao Yiming know the truth and then naturally claimed her rightful place in the Lin family. The Lin family had feelings for Lin Qingchun, and they did not drive her away just because she wasn't their biological daughter. Though filled with resentment inside, Ye Mingzhu did not show it outwardly; she pretended to be magnanimous and friendly with Lin Qingchun, but when no one was around, she provoked and taunted her until Lin Qingchun exploded in anger while she feigned innocence—making it seem like Lin Qingchun was increasingly resembling a vicious supporting character from television shows. The Lin family's parents became disappointed in Lin Qingchun and expelled her from the family. Yet Ye Mingzhu did not spare this pitiful girl; she secretly hired several thugs to assault Lin Qingchun, posting compromising photos of her online...
