Sure, here's the translation based on your instructions:

With a loud crow of the rooster, the sky like a dark curtain finally broke open with a line of light, yet it couldn't pierce through the gloomy heavens and earth.

Chuyun City is located in the south of Zhongyuan Continent, and the dawn in August shouldn't be this heavy and powerless.

"Bang bang bang!"

An impatient knocking sounded from outside, threatening to dismantle the dilapidated door.

You Su slowly opened his eyes.

Though opening his eyes was a meaningless action for him, every day he still hoped that the layer of null fog in his eyes would dissipate upon waking.

Because he was blind, had been since childhood.

As he grew older, he gradually recovered fragmented memories of his past life, but these memories were like Mirror Flower Water Moon, as if he was watching a drama about someone else. It took him a long time to barely accept the fact that he was blind.

His master, who found him and taught him, told him that those with high cultivation, even if they cannot see, can perceive heaven and earth, and there is a possibility of regaining vision in the future. Taking this as his goal, he practiced diligently every day.

"I'm awake! Thank you, Junior Sister."

You Su shouted towards the outside while reaching for his clothes in the familiar spot, dressing deftly.

His Junior Sister, who only stays up late reading novels and sleeps during the day, is quite competent as an alarm clock, arriving precisely at three-quarters past the hour every early morning.

"Senior Brother, come out." His Junior Sister's voice sounded, gentle and melodious like a clear stream flowing slowly.

You Su thought it strange: the arrogant Junior Sister with no regard for others mostly calls him directly by name, why was she calling him Senior Brother today?

But You Su did not delay, quickly opening the wooden door.

With a creak, the dim light penetrated inside, and You Su was astonished to find that this light not only penetrated the cramped room but also his eyes that were veiled by fog!

He could see now!

The world before him was so clear! It was almost exactly as he had imagined!

The left courtyard had the loquat tree he planted, which was already laden with fruit; directly opposite the door there was a stone table, an old well, which he vaguely remembered trying to throw himself into due to his blindness when he was young, only to be caught by his master, who pinned him on the stone table and gave him a stern beating, accompanied by harsh intimidation:

"You brat wanting to die by jumping into this well won't do, this well connects to the outside, better let me do it, one strike—quick and precise—and you'll be gone without even feeling pain."

You Su laughed at the memory, then looked to the right side, was that the vain Junior Sister who claimed to be the world's number one beauty with her sister? He had to take a good look.

But it was just that glance which struck You Su like lightning!

Where was the shy beauty on this "girl's" face! What grew there instead...

Were countless oozing pores, six symmetrically distributed fish eyes, and terrifying spiral mouth parts!

And under the green dress that was about to burst, it wasn't an overly plump body, but a sticky, huge form covered in black boils, beneath which hung countless fine tentacles!

The sight of the "Junior Sister" before him was enough to make one nauseous and vomit!

At this moment, You Su's scalp tingled, unwilling to believe that the marvelous Junior Sister he imagined was this terrifying monster. But no matter how many times he steadied his gaze, the Junior Sister's appearance didn't change a bit.

"What are you looking at?"

The dangerous voice suddenly rang out, and the already dim daylight seemed even darker, the Junior Sister had noticed the Senior Brother's stare!

Her terrifying face rushed towards You Su's, the two of them were only a fist's distance apart.

She stared intently into You Su's eyes, the hot breath from her mouth sprayed onto You Su's face.

Was she truly the Junior Sister... who joined the Sect three years ago, could such a monster exist? Though I may be blind, Master wasn't, did she not notice anything? Or has Junior Sister been harmed recently, allowing this monster to replace her?

You Su couldn't comprehend the situation now, but his swiftly recovering rationality made him realize: under no circumstances could he reveal that he had regained his sight!

You Su maintained the action of looking straight ahead, calmly replying:

"I'm seeing what the world's number one beautiful girl looks like."

"Hmm? What does she look like?" Junior Sister's six eyes grew huge, revealing a large amount of terrifying white.

"I guess, Junior Sister must be extremely beautiful."

You Su stared at the monster before him as if admiring a treasure rare in the world, with a smile on his lips, he replied gently.

"What's the use of guessing? Seeing for yourself counts."

The "innocent girl" tilted her head, her complex tentacles began to sway rhythmically, and her mouth parts happily secreted thick, gray-green mucus.

You Su's eyes remained unfocused, he firmly said:

"Right now, I can't see, but someday, I will."

Upon hearing the young man's words, Junior Sister's mouth parts opened and closed, saliva flowed, wishing dearly to immediately swallow the Senior Brother before her, to merge with herself forever.

"Oh right! Haven't given you the thing yet!"

The junior sister finally remembered the important matter, hurriedly taking out a small box from a brocade pouch at her waist and handed it to You Su.

You Su almost instinctively reached out to take it, but managed to restrain the impulse, only keeping his right hand hovering in the air, waiting for the junior sister to place the box on his palm.

You Su pretended to stroke it for a moment before asking, "Junior Sister, what is this?"

"It's a treasure!"

The monster seemed to find it difficult to speak, lowering its head slightly and even theatrically stroked its own belly.

"Treasure?"

You Su looked at the small, worn, and damp wooden box and had a vague sense of foreboding.

"Exactly! This pill is called the Solid Spirit Elixir, perfect for stabilizing cultivation. Senior Brother, you recently broke through to the Spirit Platform Realm, and I noticed how hard you train, so I specifically found this for you. Open it up quickly."

Although it was difficult, You Su had to admit he could actually sense a hint of expectation from the monster.

Unable to resist his curiosity, You Su slowly opened the lid, but when the lid was fully open, he was once again dumbstruck.

Lying in the box was not the Immortal Pill radiating spiritual light, but rather a thumb-sized piece of meat!

The grayish-black, putrid piece of meat quivered slightly, like a struggling heart.

Forcing back his disgust, You Su refrained from flinging it away, hurriedly closing the lid: "Junior Sister, this pill is too precious, I cannot accept it."

"I knew you'd say that. Don't worry, I have lots of such Spirit Pills."

After saying that, the monster once again touched its tummy.

You Su watched her every move. She had touched the same spot on the upper right abdomen twice now, and a suspicion suddenly hit him: could this meat be…

"But…"

"No buts! Senior Brother! Are you looking down on the gift I'm giving you?" The junior sister's fish eyes and gills widened, her mouthparts opening wide as if genuinely about to get angry.

"How could I, thank you so much, Junior Sister."

You Su gave a gentle smile and tucked the wooden box into his clothes.

Though he accepted it, no way would he ever eat it.

"Hehe, that's more like it."

The junior sister spun around happily, but the coquettish posture of a young girl on such a deformed and filthy monster only appeared bizarre and eerie.

"I'll be on my way." The junior sister, satisfied, turned to slither away.

"Rest early, Junior Sister."

You Su watched the retreating back of his junior sister, closed his eyes slightly, took a deep breath, and managed to somewhat relieve his strained nerves. After all, he was just a young swordsman without experience in such bizarre scenarios; even his inner clothes were slightly damp with sweat.

But thankfully, he seemed to have avoided an immediate catastrophe.

"Senior Brother, what are you thinking?"

A light voice resonated in front of You Su again, and he froze in place, feeling like his heart was gripped tightly by an unseen hand.

Slowly opening his eyes, his junior sister's face was now but an inch away, even closer than before, so close he couldn't see the entirety of the monster, only the spiraling fangs within its mouthparts, filled with filth and grimy residue.

"You wouldn't hide it and not eat it, hoping to secretly save it for me, right?"

"Junior Sister, don't overthink it. Instead, think more about how to defeat me after I take this elixir, or else practicing the sword will only be stricter and harder."

You Su remained calm, not forgetting his usual banter with the junior sister.

"That's fine, then." The monster junior sister did not retort, instead, after getting a satisfying answer, she made as if to leave.

You Su watched the back of his junior sister, and the forced smile vanished, exhausted, he wished to quickly return to his room to rest.

"He won't eat it."

The suddenly gentle voice was like a spring breeze in the air, but to You Su, it was like falling into an ice cellar, frozen where he stood.

You Su and his junior sister simultaneously turned toward the source of the voice, where a figure instantaneously burst through a window from the main hall, speeding towards them like a serpent exiting its hole.

Clad in white robes whiter than snow, a sword danced expressively like clouds!

But beneath the skirt were eight massive tentacles flailing wildly! A pair of indescribable eyes lay on a face shrouded in mist!

"No!"

Before the junior sister could intervene, in the very next instant, You Su's eyes widened, clutching his already severed neck, in disbelief at the sword-wielding "woman"...

She was... Master!
