Fairy, Don’t Be Afraid, I’m Blind

Chapter 94: Tai Sui’s Purpose

I envied this proud Junior Sister, who enjoyed a love I had never known.

I yearned for that affection, so I asked the Dream-Eating Ghost to help me stage a performance. It agreed to transform us into the likeness of his Junior Sister and Master’s Wife, but I refused.

When the young man was drawn into this mental realm, I nervously began my act. Following the Dream-Eating Ghost’s instructions, I fed him a piece of Tai Sui flesh to enhance his constitution.

His eyes were filled with terror, yet he remained composed, playing along despite his doubts. Whether it was our first deceptive encounter or his forced consumption of Tai Sui flesh, he never truly believed we were his Junior Sister and Master’s Wife.

Throughout this time, the Dream-Eating Ghost planted suggestions in his mind, convincing him that we were indeed his beloved ones, possessed by evil. These suggestions took root, making him overlook the inconsistencies.

He never shunned them for being possessed; instead, he was determined to save them.

One day, as he taught me swordsmanship in his mindscape, I asked, “What if I don’t look like you imagine?”

“Would that mean you’re not my Junior Sister?” he replied sincerely.

From that moment, I knew he had divided his love—one part for the real Junior Sister, and one for me, the imposter.

I decided to deepen our bond. I wove another lie, one that played on his deepest desires. I spoke of primary and secondary consciousness, of overlapping perceptions leading to the merging of minds—all fabrications. Yet, he trusted me completely, embracing me gently. It was the first time anyone had held me willingly, and I craved more.

The Dream-Eating Ghost left to find the True Sovereign’s Divine Court, warning me not to act rashly. I obeyed, feigning a need to slumber. No one knew my true plan—I was ashamed of my deceit but excited for the future I envisioned.

I discovered I possessed some control over dreams, perhaps a power of Tai Sui. I infiltrated the girl’s body as she and You Su shared intimate moments, her naivety making her an easy target.

She was a fool, silently enduring everything, crying only when You Su was alone and helpless. How could she deserve to be his Junior Sister?

I would not be destined as food for another! I would make her willing to offer her body to me!

My plan succeeded. This foolish girl readily let me take control, never considering the trouble her possession would cause her Senior Brother. But it didn’t matter; from now on, I was “Ji Lingruo”!

The three days in the cave with Senior Brother were the happiest of my life. We shared intimate moments that captivated me and left me yearning for more. Unfortunately, this body wasn’t truly mine, and a deranged girl would often interrupt at crucial moments!

But in this frail girl’s body, I couldn’t kill the one hiding within Tai Sui. Tai Sui could only willingly give up its life or be slain by someone possessing its power.

The final step of my deceptive plan was to have You Su kill Ji Lingruo, who had become Tai Sui. This way, I could forever live as You Su’s Junior Sister.

But why did You Su hesitate? Why did he see through my deception?

In that moment, a profound sense of defeat washed over me. The Dream-Eating Ghost was right; this blind young man had likely never truly accepted me as his real Junior Sister.

I resigned myself to my fate, feeling remorse for my evil deeds. Unknowingly, I had become a demon, manipulating others’ lives as those who had tormented me.

Yet, in my final moments, I felt a warmth I had never known. Whether real or imagined, this warmth was enough to comfort me. Death no longer seemed frightening, but I regretted not being able to shield You Su from the grand conspiracy to resurrect the True Sovereign.

Before the empty black coffin, the Dream-Eating Ghost showed me ancient and weighty visions that were almost indescribable. I recalled its words: I was the key to the True Sovereign’s resurrection. But the resurrection wasn’t happening today; perhaps it began the moment I first fed You Su the Tai Sui flesh.

Fortunately, it was you, which made me willing to be consumed…

This girl proved herself worthy of being You Su’s Junior Sister. To make amends for my wrongdoings, I decided to aid their relationship…

The ritual to resurrect the True Sovereign didn’t require dual cultivation; her presence was merely an accident. Moreover, during their cultivation, I secretly repaired her peculiar meridians and formed a new demonic core within her. In my absence, she must no longer be a burden to her Senior Brother…

In my final moments, gazing back at my memories, all the darkness and hatred faded, leaving only the vague recollections of my parents and You Su.

We will never truly die. One day, I will reclaim my Senior Brother from her hands…

In the familiar room, Ji Lingruo still lay in slumber, tears streaming down her cheeks.

Heavenly Maiden Wangshu, wearing a jade rabbit mask, stood by her side. She gently touched the girl’s tears, her eyes filled with confusion.

In You Su’s room, Lotus Sword Venerable watched over him with a grave expression. She carefully dabbed the sweat from his brow, her movements revealing her elegant figure.

In his delirium, You Su murmured incessantly, calling out, “Junior Sister! Master!”

He Shutong heard him clearly, her heart tightening with a mix of loss and self-reproach. She lowered her gaze, biting her lower lip gently.

“Master’s Wife…”
