To Harm the Righteous Path, I Had No Choice But to Make Games

The two started in the same location as in reality, Gu Yun's bedroom on the second floor.

The room was empty, and the sky was slightly dark.

"September 3rd...that's ten days ago in real time? Shouldn't we be looking at memories from even earlier?"

Zhong Yi looked at the time on the calendar and was taken aback.

According to the effects of dream-making magic, the two should go to Gu Yun's childhood and, with the help of the magic, give him suggestions to change the course of his life.

"The old man is barely breathing, so we can't use too much force with the magic. If we build too many memories at once, he won't be able to handle it... We need to push him forward little by little in the dream."

While searching for Gu Yun's whereabouts, Qin Li'en answered casually.

"Besides, we still need to ask the old man why we went to the Moon Realm, don't we?"

"That's true... Thank you for your explanation, senior sister!"

Zhong Yi agreed wholeheartedly and smiled as he clasped his hands in a fist salute to Qin Li'en.

Although Qin Li'en was sharp-tongued, she was very responsible as a senior sister, which earned his deep respect.

Zhong Yi arrived on the first floor.

The layout of the old house is exactly the same as in reality, with an exquisitely crafted seven-stringed zither placed in the center of the first floor.

Next to the seven-stringed zither, there was a sheet of music.

【“Remembering Linxi”: A guqin score composed by Gu Yun, with a melodious tune】

"Lin Xi? The old man really loved his deceased wife deeply..."

Zhong Yi couldn't help but recall the simple tombstone he had seen under the lighthouse, and then a flash of inspiration struck him.

"Senior sister! I think I know where Grandpa Gu is!"

...

This time, they didn't have to run.

As the creators of the illusion, the two arrived at the foot of the lighthouse in the blink of an eye.

Just as Zhong Yi had predicted, Gu Yun was sitting on a bench below the lighthouse, accompanied by his servant Chen Lili, staring blankly at the bright moon in the night sky.

"Okay... I've finally seen the person."

Qin Li'en breathed a sigh of relief, her fingertips tracing patterns in the air as she recorded Gu Yun's presence.

In this way, they can follow Gu Yun's trail at will.

"And who are you two immortal masters?"

Upon seeing Zhong Yi and Qin Li'en appear out of nowhere, Gu Yun suddenly stood up from the bench.

"Hello, Mr. Gu, this should be our first meeting."

Qin Li'en smiled and gestured to Gu Yun not to be nervous.

"My name is Qin Li'en, and this is my junior brother, Zhong Yi. We are disciples of the Dream Weaving Sect."

"The Dream Weavers Sect!? What a coincidence, I was just about to place a commission with you..."

Gu Yun looked at the two of them with utter astonishment.

Qin Li'en looked at Zhong Yi behind her and whispered, "Junior Brother Zhong, take this opportunity to familiarize yourself with the use of the dream-making technique."

【Main quest updated:】

【He demonstrates dream-making techniques to Gu Yun, convincing her of their power.】

Several skills suddenly lit up on Zhong Yi's skill panel.

The well-informed Zhong Yi quickly realized that this was a tutorial level guiding him to use the dream-making skill.

After briefly browsing the skill descriptions, Zhong Yi quickly gained a general understanding of the Dream Creation Technique.

It can weave the state of everything within the illusion.

"Lily, could you make tea for our two guests... Lily?"

Gu Yun called out a few times, then suddenly realized something was wrong.

The servant Chen Lili standing next to him remained motionless, like a statue.

"Actually, we have already received your request."

Zhong Yi walked up to Qin Li'en and sighed.

Chen Lili's condition has been "frozen" by him.

To further prove this, Zhong Yi snapped his fingers, and Chen Lili's figure suddenly disappeared.

"!!??"

Gu Yun was shocked and instinctively took two steps back.

"As you can see, this is your memory, or rather... dream."

Zhong Yi quickly waved his hand and explained.

"...Junior Brother Zhong, I'm letting you familiarize yourself with magic, why do you have to show off... What if you scare the old man to death?"

Qin Li'en rubbed her forehead, looking helpless.

In such a situation, most people would simply change the color of the sky and earth, speed up or stop time, and demonstrate their abilities slightly.

Zhong Yi, on the other hand, immediately performed a magical transformation, which made Gu Yun think he was a demonic cultivator.

"It's okay, if all else fails we can restart this memory... I can still do that."

Zhong Yi answered in a very serious manner.

"You seem a bit like you just finished advanced training in the Demonic Path..."

Qin Li'en's lips twitched slightly as she complained.

"Two Immortal Masters."

Listening to the conversation between Zhong Yi and Qin Li'en, Gu Yun seemed to have accepted Zhong Yi's explanation, and her expression gradually returned to normal.

"You're here to help me fulfill my wish, right?"

Qin Li'en nodded: "That's right, Grandpa Gu."

Upon hearing this, Gu Yun took a deep breath, turned around, and looked up at the bright moon in the night sky.

"Very good......"

His voice trembled slightly, and after a long while, he turned around and asked hopefully:

"Can you really send me to the Moon Realm?"

"It's not enough for us to do it alone; you have to rely on yourself."

Qin Li'en shook her head, neither confirming nor denying.

Zhong Yi naturally understood Qin Li'en's meaning.

What they can do is not to create a new world, but to sow the seeds of cause and effect, planting the seeds of cause in Gu Yun's childhood and then reaping the desired results in the future.

Only by knowing why Gu Yun wants to go to the Moon Realm can we address the root cause.

Otherwise, if the "cause" planted is not accepted by Gu Yun when he was a child, then everything will be in vain.

"Grandpa, why are you going to the Moon Realm?"

Zhong Yi asked.

Gu Yun shook her head: "I don't know."

“Grandpa Gu, the magic of the Dream Maker Sect is not as powerful as you think... We need to know why you want to go to the Moon Realm in order to help you realize your wish.”

Qin Li'en said solemnly.

"There has to be some motive, right? Is it to become famous, to make money, or to become a cultivator?"

"I'm sorry, but I really don't know."

Faced with Qin Lien's questioning, Gu Yun frowned and fell into deep thought. After a while, he sighed and smiled bitterly.

He looked up at the moon in the sky again, and his dull eyes suddenly became more determined.

"I just..."

"We absolutely have to go."
