There was no response from inside the cave for a long time.

In the past, whenever he said these words to He Ronger, He Ronger would quickly beg for mercy and apologize to him humbly, but today there was no movement at all.

He Xingwen was a little angry and raised his voice again, "He Ronger, I know you are here. If you don't come out after I count to three, I will never forgive you. One... two..."

He Ronger stood inside the entrance of the lava cave, looking at the two people outside the cave, tears in her eyes.

She also wanted to go out, but there was a barrier here. She couldn't get out alive, and she couldn't escape even if she died.

Before He Xingwen could count to three, Xi Ruxin came back and said, "Stop shouting. She's not here. She probably sneaked out to play."

He Xingwen didn't believe it and walked into the lava cave.

As soon as he entered the cave, he felt a heat wave rushing towards his face, and he could only mobilize all his spiritual power to resist it.

Then he looked around the cave, and sure enough, he didn't see He Ronger. He was so angry that his eyes turned red.

"This He Rong'er is simply stubborn. She defended Lian'er even when she was sick, but she doesn't even feel guilty at all."

He Ronger felt sad when she heard her third brother say this, but she knew that no matter how she explained, neither of them could hear her.

Finally, the two of them left angrily, and no one went in to check the situation. Naturally, they did not notice that the life plate belonging to He Ronger had fallen near the lava pit and had been shattered.

When He Ronger saw that his mother and third brother were about to leave, he followed them and ran out. It was the first time he left the lava cave since his death.

Her face showed surprise and joy.

Next, she followed Xi Ruxin and the other person, and followed them to Yaofeng where their family lived.

Dad and mom are both elders of Yaofeng of Qixuan Sect, and He Ronger has three older brothers who are extremely talented.

The eldest brother He Tianzong, 15 years old, has dual spiritual roots of gold and wind. A few years ago, he became a disciple of the leader of the Mingjian Sect and is one of the leader’s most proud disciples.

The second elder brother, He Tianhong, has a fire spirit root and is good at drawing talismans. At the age of 14, he became the direct disciple of the head of Lingyun Sect. He is also the youngest intermediate talisman master in the spirit world.

The third brother, He Xingwen, is 12 years old. He has dual spiritual roots of wood and fire. He is currently learning to make medicine with his parents. However, he is determined to join the Qingling Sect, which is the best at making medicine. At this time, he is working hard to learn pharmacology and prepare to participate in the Qingling Sect's disciple selection in three months.

He Rong'er also has a younger sister, He Lian'er, who was born on the same day as her, just a quarter of an hour later. She is the one who was recognized as the "lucky star" by Master Wu Tian at birth and is eight years old this year.

Looking at the familiar large medicinal field in front of him, He Ronger felt a little excited.

It seems that this medicinal field is growing well even without her care.

At this time, a little girl wearing a light yellow long skirt and two small buns on her head ran over with a smile, followed by her maid Qiao Yun.

As soon as the girl in yellow came closer, she threw herself into Xi Ruxin's arms: "Mother, Third Brother, have you seen my sister?"

Xi Ruxin's face, which had been tense all the way, finally relaxed a lot at this moment.

She held her daughter in her arms and whispered, "No, she probably didn't want to be punished and ran out to play. When I find her again, mother will definitely punish her severely."

"Lian'er, you have just recovered from your illness, so you should lie down more." He Xingwen said with concern.

Then he looked at Qiao Yun who was standing behind He Lian'er and scolded her, "Your young lady hasn't recovered from her illness yet, why did you let her run away?"

Qiao Yun timidly lowered her head and was about to admit her fault when she heard He Lian'er speak: "Third brother, this has nothing to do with Qiao Yun. I insisted on running away. And I'm fine now. Don't blame me anymore."

After that, she looked at her mother again: "Mother, my sister didn't mean it, please forgive her. The sect's competition will be held in a few days, and father and mother still have a lot of things to do. Don't be distracted by Lian'er's little thing."

He Lian'er opened her big clear eyes and advised with understanding.

"Okay, our Lian'er is still obedient. I will listen to you. But your sister almost caused you to drown this time. You must be punished when you come back, otherwise there may be bigger troubles in the future."

"Yes, we can't let her off easily. Find her and hand her over to me. I will make her remember this lesson." He Xingwen echoed, with fierceness in his eyes.

As they talked, they all walked away, leaving He Ronger standing there blankly.

Her heart ached like a knife.

She clearly didn't do anything, but why did her mother and brothers always think she was unforgivable?

Just because she was born without spiritual roots?

Just because that venerable said that she was the "disaster star" of the Seven Mysterious Sect, did she have to wipe out all her good deeds?

She had already been sent to the human world by her parents and had suffered for six years. Isn't that enough?

He Ronger's entire body was filled with black resentment, which almost enveloped her figure.

At this moment, He Tianzong walked towards the top of the mountain with one hand behind his back.

When he passed by where He Ronger was standing, he paused, frowned slightly, and felt a hint of chill.

But he soon returned to normal and looked at the people not far ahead with a smile.

He Lian'er heard footsteps behind her and turned around to see the person coming. She let go of her mother's hand and trotted over: "Brother, you're back!"

He Tianzong looked at the little girl running over with a doting look on his face. He squatted down and touched the tip of the little girl's nose, then took out an oil-paper bag from his arms: "This is for you. Try it while it's hot."

He Ronger, who was standing aside, looked at the gentle smile on He Tianzong's face, with a hint of sneer on her lips.

The same person treated her and He Lian'er in two completely different ways.

She still remembers the anger and disgust on her eldest brother's face when he threw her into the lava cave.

He Lian'er took the thing, opened the oil paper package layer by layer, and shouted in surprise: "Mom, it turned out to be the sweet-scented osmanthus cake from Lingshizhai!"

"Why are you back?" Xi Ruxin asked with a smile.

"My master asked me to go down the mountain to do some work. After I finish the work, I will come to see you if I have time. On the way, I passed by the small town market, and thinking that Lian'er likes to eat osmanthus cake, I bought some for her." He Tianzong explained with a gentle face.

After he finished speaking, he looked down at He Lian'er, only to see her carefully wrapping the oil paper bag, so he asked in confusion: "Lian'er, why don't you eat it?"

He Lian'er drooped her little face and whispered, "I want to keep it and eat it with my sister. Although my sister was disobedient and did not follow Daddy's instructions to reflect on her mistakes in the lava cave, she is still my sister from the same mother."

Upon hearing this, He Tianzong's expression immediately turned cold.

"What? She actually ran away secretly?"

He Lian'er covered her mouth hurriedly, as if she had let something slip.

Seeing that her brother's face had darkened, she continued to persuade him, "Brother, don't be angry. I guess my sister had other reasons for leaving the lava cave."
