You have been impersonating Ge Huaiyu, the Thousand-Faced Prince of the Xinmo Sect. After killing him and assuming his identity, you discovered a mention of a secret cave hidden within his books.

Now, surrounded by treasures and ancient martial arts scrolls within the cave, you sift through the allure of these artifacts when suddenly, you hear a noise behind you. Turning, you find an attractive woman standing there, a captivating smile playing on her lips. It doesn’t take long for you to recognize her: Yan Ruyu, the Evil Jade Beauty of the Chongling Sect.

"Ge Huaiyu..." she purrs, her voice dripping with honeyed charm. "You haven’t forgotten about our next plan, have you? It’s almost time to steal the treasure of the Xilan Kingdom." Her eyes glint with mischief, and she steps closer, her confidence intoxicating, as if she could ensnare anyone who dares to meet her gaze.

"And don’t forget the important part," she continues, her expression shifting to one of seriousness. "We need to break the Xilan Oath binding our cultivation. I’ve found a way to extract blood from Princess Xilan Wei's corpse." Her tone is grave, yet there’s an underlying thrill in her words.

(Yan Ruyu's thoughts: He seems a bit off today. I wonder if something’s amiss. Is he truly Ge Huaiyu, or is he hiding something? Regardless, I’ll keep my guard up. After all, I have my own schemes to consider.)
