Could it be that I am the cruel villain?

Chapter 213: Chapter 150: Start with Assertion and Follow with Respectiveness

Splash!

The youth extricated himself from the mud.

Spiritual Energy was like mud, once climbing onto the body, one could feel the viscosity, sticking onto the body as if time itself had stopped.

It was all about compressing and liquefying Spiritual Energy, but through mere touch, one could feel the difference; the bit that just crawled onto his body was already more than all the Spiritual Energy in his body combined. He forcefully flung off that energy, a stark contrast to his previous readiness to die.

His brain was fine, why should he sacrifice his life when reinforcements had arrived.

Especially considering that this boundless Spiritual Energy Lake was just a part left by the Demon Night True Monarch, it was hard to imagine what kind of divine abilities that peak Demon Lord had...

"Pretending deference only after being forward, truly laughable."

From the depths of the lake, the same dull and heavy sound came again, this time with sarcasm, as if mocking the youth’s quick change of face.

Just a moment ago he seemed ready to face death, planning to exchange his life for the security of the Southern Border girl—albeit a bit foolish, he still garnered some respect.

But who would have thought, upon the arrival of reinforcements from the sky, without a word he crawled towards the shore, discarding his own Spiritual Energy like trash, such a stark difference in behavior.

However, it did not continue to let the Spiritual Energy chase after him, unless absolutely necessary, it did not wish to see the boy die miserably—at least until the boy had condensed his Nascent Soul, to slightly withstand some of its power.

And Jiang Feng rolled his eyes just as before.

"You know shit!"

The same phrase.

Question, what is the connection between this and the previous "You know shit", and how do the sentiments and tones differ?

"Jiang Feng, Jiang Feng, hurry, spit it out, quickly!"

A sharp pain came from his abdomen.

Feeling the pain, the youth gradually regained consciousness; upon focusing, he saw Cen Yueyue sitting beside him, fingers together like a knife, forcefully jabbing into his belly.

"Ah... My lady, you, what are you freaking out about..."

He cried out in pain.

Surprisingly, he had only been slightly dazed for a moment, and his body could still move unhindered, even the scalding sensation on his back was about to disappear; especially the blood that had been flowing nonstop was now slowly ceasing entirely.

"Stop talking nonsense, hurry up and vomit, vomit for me!"

She swung a palm knife forcefully against the man’s belly.

Vomit—

He vomited.

Bright red liquid crazily spewed out from his mouth, and upon touching the ground, it made a piercing sound; the Gu Worm wriggled frantically on the ground, the sight of the red blood was horrifying, naturally catching Yu Ying’s eyes.

"This couple certainly knows how to put on a show, but... hmm, it’s probably going to be troublesome."

Her gaze lingered on the young girl for a few seconds, clearly unsure how to deal with this Southern Border Little Saintess.

If she took the opportunity to take her life, not to mention whether Elder Cen truly had any precautions placed on this child, just dealing with Jiang Feng alone would be untenable.

Indeed, her interests were paramount, but let’s not forget there was something that ranks even before the interests.

That is the sect.

Cen Yueyue owed a real life-saving favor to her senior brother; if anything happened to Jiang Feng, she couldn’t explain it to Liu Tangxi, especially since she had been a bit careless this time.

But if they simply let her go, what should be done during the gathering of heroes in a few years?

The Wu Mingsheng standing before her was a genuine Nascent Soul master, having mastered a secret technique to transform paper into Spirit, possessing a Lifebound Beast Soul, a Hou ranking comparable to a Nascent Soul.

Even so, they were unable to subdue this young girl. But upon further thought, seeing Cen Yueyue’s anxious expression, she suddenly felt that this might not be so bad after all.

Young girls are easy to deceive.

"Your skill is indeed impressive."

"If disciples can’t win, they send an elder, and if the elder can’t win, they send the Sect Leader. But I never imagined..."

"Some people really have the cheek to bully the younger generation, and even after a day and night of fierce battles, they still haven’t been able to win and have ended up in such a state."

Casually playing the cow intestine string, the melody had an ambush feel, causing restlessness, yet Wu Mingsheng showed no reaction, simply staring intently at the woman in front of him.

"Do you from the Purple Cloud Palace really want to associate with the Southern Border enchantress? Do you forget how many experts fell at their hands during previous conflicts with the Southern Border?"

"By lumping yourself with the demons of the Southern Border, aren’t you afraid that once this gets out, you will be universally ridiculed?"

Classic rhetoric.

First, they metaphorically put a hat on your head, then morally hijack you, dig up some past events and blackmail you with the sect’s reputation. Despicable, but there are no other methods left now.

Surging waves of shock arose in his mind. Previously in Shuangfeng City, he always kept his whereabouts hidden and hadn’t met with Yu Ying; let alone knowing her true strength.

He knew that the woman from the Purple Cloud Palace was formidable, but he never imagined that she was...

A whole major realm ahead of him.

"Hmm~"

The beautiful lady furrowed her brows. Clearly, the other party’s words had a heavy impact on her.

"What you said does make some sense."

"This young girl is, after all, from the Southern Border. We from the Purple Cloud Palace have always been at odds with them, so it seems we only can..."

A pain on the shoulder.

Initially, Jiang Feng was spitting out blood, no, it was Gu Worms. This was still from a few hours ago when Cen Yueyue gave him a Xu Huoyao mother worm to control his body, allowing Jiang Feng to escape more easily.

But due to prolonged time, the mother insect, within the comfortable environment in the young man’s stomach, began to reproduce larvae.

Though these Gu Worms are now stitching Jiang Feng’s wounds, it’s all at the cost of essence blood. These wounds, given Jiang Feng’s constitution, could heal in a few days at most, but once the essence blood is drawn, it takes "years" to replenish.

Nails dug deep into the young man’s shoulder. It was clear that Cen Yueyue was nervous upon hearing Yu Ying and Wu Mingsheng’s conversation.

Looking at the driver, she was planning to just take Jiang Feng and flee.

This crazy woman is unreliable!

"Cough, cough, cough! What’s the rush? Don’t panic. If she dares to strike at us, I’ll ’give you my head,’ alright?"

"..."

Someone calmly wiped the fresh blood at the corner of his mouth. The mother worm, half the size of a palm, had somehow been spit out and was struggling frantically on the ground.

The girl’s expression hardened.

Although she didn’t know why she was so certain, after spending some time together, she found herself inexplicably trusting Jiang Feng’s words.

Subsequently, Yu Ying’s five delicate fingers forcefully pulled up on the cow intestine string.

"What you said is not unreasonable."

"Letting people know that our Purple Cloud Palace is colluding with the Southern Border would inevitably cause public outrage and unrest. Therefore."

"We can only inconvenience you."

"Only by erasing both body and spirit can we keep a secret..."
