A Family of Hopeless Romantics, Except for the Evil Little Junior Brother-Chapter 61: Suspected Another Transmigrator

There were three trials in Mount Shushan’s entrance assessment.

The first trial was a test of talent.

The second trial was the Heart Questioning Stage.

To question one’s true heart—see if one possesses a pure heart for cultivation.

The third trial was a duel among disciples, battling it out on the Martial Arena.

During these three trials, Li Xuanxiao crossed out quite a few names he had previously recorded.

For example, those youths named Ye Fan, Wang Teng, and Han Li.

All three failed the Heart Questioning Stage.

Further follow-up investigation revealed none of them had a firm heart for cultivation.

As expected, they were just namesakes.

The world might be a bit flipped, but at least it’s not a big mishmash.

Actually, running into Ye Fan, Han Li, or Wang Teng wouldn’t have been so bad.

The real problem was that one—Xu Fengnian.

That name was terrifying.

And he actually passed the first two tests, showing considerable strength.

What made Li Xuanxiao truly panic was—during the trial,

While he was off to the side recording, Xu Fengnian glanced at him.

Li Xuanxiao:

Looking at me = extreme malice = serious threat to personal safety = wants to refine me to improve his talent = must eliminate enemy.

But the next day during the trial, the other party acted like Li Xuanxiao didn’t exist.

Li Xuanxiao was even more certain now.

Not looking at me? What are you hiding?

Hiding something = plotting sneak attack, ambush, holding a grudge = serious threat to personal safety = must eliminate enemy.

Not a moment to lose.

“..........”

That night, Li Xuanxiao quietly snuck into Menial Peak.

The Janitor Uncle at Menial Peak perked up alertly.

What’s this brat doing here in the middle of the night!?

Finally can’t hold back and wants to make a move on my girl?

B*stard!!!

Li Xuanxiao emerged from underground, looking at Xu Fengnian still fast asleep.

He slapped a talisman on the other’s forehead and cast a spell.

Xu Fengnian, still in a dream, didn’t notice a thing.

“Do you harbor any ill intent toward the disciple named Li Xuanxiao?” Li Xuanxiao asked.

“Li Xuanxiao? Don’t know him.”

Xu Fengnian’s lips moved.

Li Xuanxiao let out a breath of relief. “Have you ever gone around burning, killing, looting, and then claimed yourself to be the White-Robed Heir, the most pitiful man under the heavens?”

“Am I some beast? My parents are alive and well, my family’s harmonious. I’m not some kind of pervert.”

Li Xuanxiao nodded, breathing easier again, and continued questioning.

“What would you do to repay kindness? For example, would you kill your benefactor’s entire family? Kill your benefactor’s parents?”

“Wouldn’t that make me a beast?!!”

Li Xuanxiao nodded once more.

He checked the other’s body top to bottom—no hidden strength, no special items.

“Fourth question—are you someone reincarnated?”

“No.”

Li Xuanxiao nodded again.

“Is your life’s dream to have 300,000 people die with you, then retire with your wives to a secluded place?”

“Absolutely not!”

Thank goodness.

I can finally relax.

Li Xuanxiao let out a breath of relief.

“.........”

“Four hundred fifty-sixth question, now listen carefully.

There’s a mother and two daughters. The mother dies, and the two sisters attend the funeral.

At the funeral, the younger sister meets a very charming man and falls in love at first sight.

After returning home, the younger sister kills the older one—why?”

“........”

“Four hundred fifty-ninth question.

There’s a young man whose house is separated from a married couple’s house by a patch of grass.

Late at night, he’s awakened by the sound of arguing next door, then hears the sound of chopping and cows grazing.

After a while, he hears someone banging on his door.

The next morning, he finds the female neighbor dead at his doorstep. Deduce what happened.”

“............”

“Would you rather love a fellow disciple or love cultivation?”

“Fellow disciple!”

“Fellow disciple or talent?”

“Fellow disciple!”

“Fellow disciple or spiritual roots?”

“Fellow disciple!”

“All questions complete. You pass.

Alright then, I’m leaving.”

Li Xuanxiao muttered to himself.

Then his presence vanished from Menial Peak, and the disciples’ quarters returned to silence.

Xu Fengnian didn’t notice anything out of the ordinary.

A moment later, Li Xuanxiao’s face appeared again at the window, silently watching him.

If you were pretending to be under my control, answering on purpose...

Then let me ask, if I suddenly came back with a sneak attack—

Wouldn’t you explode?

Li Xuanxiao stared at Xu Fengnian.

After a while—

Yep! He really was under control.

"This time I’m really leaving."

Li Xuanxiao’s presence vanished.

Yet another while later, Li Xuanxiao’s face popped out from the roof beam, staring hard at Xu Fengnian.

Can’t help it—your name is just too damn scary. It’s practically taboo. I have to be cautious.

“.......”

All the questions were tested.

Li Xuanxiao finally let out a long sigh.

Confirmed—just someone with the same name. The guy wasn’t antisocial.

Risk level downgraded to: Low Risk.

“That name of yours...” Li Xuanxiao muttered, “It’s way too dangerous.”

He was just about to leave, when suddenly the other said:

“I’m not actually called Xu Fengnian.”

“You’re not?” Li Xuanxiao was puzzled.

“My surname’s Xu, given name Feng. On the road to Mount Shushan, I ran into a senior cultivator.

He heard my name and thought it was interesting. Told me, when I registered at Mount Shushan, to say my name was Xu Fengnian.”

Li Xuanxiao froze, cold sweat instantly breaking out down his back.

“You... what did you say?! Think back carefully to what happened then!!”

Under Li Xuanxiao’s guidance, the other fell into recollection.

“Haha, your name’s really interesting, hilarious.”

“Nothing, I just think your name would be even funnier with a slight change.”

“When you get to Mount Shushan, just use the name I told you.”

“Hahaha, trust me. If you use that name, Mount Shushan’s bound to take you in.”

“............”

Back at Silver Sword Peak, Li Xuanxiao burrowed into his straw hut.

Afraid, weak, shivering, cold!!!

This world is way too dangerous.

Good news: Xu Fengnian’s not real. He’s got nothing to do with the version I know.

Bad news: I might’ve just discovered another transmigrator.

The other person knew the name Xu Fengnian.

That makes it 90% likely they’re from the same world as me.

And yet I can’t remember a single thing about their appearance or age.

Logically, I shouldn’t have forgotten everything useful.

Only one possibility—he deliberately erased the memory of his appearance and age.

Just like how I’ve subtly changed my own appearance over the years, until I ended up with an utterly average face.

Li Xuanxiao circled it heavily in his notes.

Super Ultra Mega Danger!!!

There’s very likely someone in this world, like me, from another world.

Name unknown, gender unknown, age unknown, cultivation unknown.

That sense of an unknown danger lurking in the dark—it’s way too unsettling.
