Could it be that I am the cruel villain?

Chapter 351: Chapter 228 Xin Yue_2

With a troubled frown, getting slapped in the face yet having to proactively offer thanks, what kind of world is this!

But Liu Xianzi didn’t seem to have any intention of sitting back down, instead she leisurely walked behind Jiang Feng, with the back of her head against her senior sister’s warm and soft belly, she tried to lift her head, only to discover...

Everywhere her gaze landed was a great thunder!

She couldn’t even see the face!

"Although Lu Luo tends to be naughty, she does possess one good trait, which is knowing her limits; she would never harm others due to her special cultivation technique. At worst, it would leave her drained for a few days as a lesson."

"If it were any other disciple, the sect would have at least punished them somewhat, but her case is indeed tricky to handle. One reason is the innate flaws present in members of the Demon Race – the sect should provide more guidance and tolerance."

"Another reason is her identity."

He nodded.

He had heard a bit about this and had specially asked a senior brother to tell him the story behind it, even spending two Spirit Stones for the gossip – after all, indulging in gossip is in everyone’s DNA.

Finally, they reached the important part. Jiang Feng listened intently, as this was the first time his senior sister had spoken to him in detail about the Demon Race. Previously, she had only given him a rough overview, but knowing that the Clan Leader was coming, he couldn’t help feeling a bit troubled.

After all, it was only because she had tried to save him that Sister Lu Luo ended up in such a state, even the last Crescent Moon Needle was her infusing her last bit of Spiritual Energy into his body, allowing his injuries to recover slightly.

If the other party truly sought to assign responsibility, he had no excuse.

"Moreover, even if she did make a mistake, as long as it wasn’t a major one, she wouldn’t be punished. Clan Leader Xin Yue and Purple Cloud Palace have a deep friendship. You should remember me mentioning that within the Nine Provinces, there were not just one, but several cleansings and reorganizations, right?"

He nodded his head, but this movement accidentally bumped into the great thunder above his head, making him somewhat embarrassed. However, Liu Tangxi’s expression remained indifferent; she only extended her cold little hand and kept rubbing Jiang Feng’s head.

It felt like an older sister pestering her little brother, finding a fun toy and then relentlessly teasing him.

"Back when the hierarchy was being reshuffled, the Fox Clan and Purple Cloud Immortal Palace were barely allies, having had transactions of mutual benefit. So, bearing her in mind, even if Lu Luo did something more out of line, she wouldn’t be punished."

"Of course, sending her to the border of Long Country was also a decision made by the sect. One reason was to stop her from continuing to cause trouble for the Sect Disciples, and the other was to protect her."

"Coming from Qingshui County, you should know what it means for a cultivator to be there – calling them a local emperor wouldn’t be an exaggeration. Despite many restrictions and seemingly being at the border at risk of war at any time."

"But how could war ever reach her? Thus, after going to Long Country, she focused on her cultivation and broke through to Core Formation quite impressively, and you know what happened afterwards."

"I came to you in pursuit of Demon Night True Monarch, always trying to find a way to suppress the demon soul within you, also giving you time to handle your family affairs."

"Those two women helped me quite a bit, and in turn helped you quite a lot. It just so happens that I’ve been planning to reopen the Mountain Gate recently, and am short-handed. Both women are talented and have their own strengths, and on top of that!"

For some unknown reason, Liu Tangxi emphasized the last two words with a bit more force, speaking them sharply.

"You’ve been diving into their bedding, so I can only bring them back to the Mountain Gate."

He opened his mouth as if to speak, then hesitated.

He had intended to quibble a bit, but his senior sister’s words were, indeed, correct.

During that time, he was nearly obsessed with his cultivation, spending all day in the brothel, asking this or that – whether about Cultivation Techniques or knowledge related to cultivation.

When tired or sleepy, he would just flop onto someone else’s bed, sleeping like a dead pig, no wonder Jiang Feng was so concerned about the two sisters now.

"To return to the main point, Lu Luo is now injured, and it’s an injury that could potentially ruin her future. Even with Clan Leader Xin Yue’s good temper, I estimate she won’t be able to sit still and is planning to come in person."

"When she joined Purple Cloud Palace, it was with Clan Leader Xin Yue’s approval, and that clan leader now refers to Lu Luo as her own daughter. Even a clay figure would have three points of fire."

"Our Purple Cloud Palace isn’t afraid of Xin Yue coming to cause trouble, but after all, we are in the wrong in this matter. If someone of the same realm had been beaten like this, Clan Leader Xin Yue would not say much."

"But as you can see."

"You four, with three at Middle Grade Core Formation and one at Lower Grade Core Formation, went to provoke Jin Shan, who was at the Peak of Core Formation and obviously only a step away from reaching the Nascent Soul stage, and even managed to achieve a breakthrough during the battle."

"No matter how you defend yourselves, the sect is partly to blame for the oversight, letting you go up against him was already against the rules, and your reputation is considerable. After this incident, the sect’s scrutiny will undoubtedly become even stricter."

He nodded silently.

Young people always have to pay for their youthful impetuousness; it would have been fine if he only got himself killed, but this time, he dragged innocent people into it, including Lu Luo, whom he regarded as family.

His mood was twenty times worse than eating shit.

"How is Sister Lu Luo now, has she woken up? I want to go see..."

"She will be unconscious for at least three more days, and I suggest you don’t go. To rejoin her bones and tendons, her skin and flesh had to be cut open, and this process will need to be repeated at least twice more. I have contacted Senior Sister Lu and asked her to make sure to heal her with all her might."

He couldn’t spit out the last word "her."

He could fully imagine what Lu Luo, who always loved beauty, would be tortured into looking like, and this was all thanks to him.

Seeing the young man fall silent, Liu Tangxi could understand her junior brother’s mood, gently patted his face, and the usually tough her rarely chose to change the subject.

"That day when you and I were talking eloquently in the study, you noticed the portrait of Master Guang Xian at a glance, and as I said, there are countless connections between you two. You two are fated, and I firmly believe that the two of you will settle this karmic retribution personally."

"Originally, Master Guang Xian also participated in the battle to encircle Demon Night True Monarch, which was truly a world-shattering and ghost-weeping battle. I once went to take a look at the battlefield and saw resentment floating in the sky and countless shattered corpses that took decades to dissipate."

"The battlefield was barren for a hundred miles, like a purgatory on earth. After Demon Night True Monarch was defeated, his Divine Soul separated, and his physical body collapsed. To transcend the resentment in him, Master Guang Xian personally collected pieces of Demon Night’s True Monarch’s body with several disciples."

"It took a full three months to gather the broken body."

"To transform the resentment of Demon Night True Monarch and to bid farewell to an old friend, Master Guang Xian chose to suppress both the body and Divine Soul beneath the Tower of Sinful Karma, then took them to Fangcun Mountain, where he summoned the Eight Great Vajra and chanted Buddhist Scriptures daily."

"His original idea was to do this last good deed before stepping down as the head of the temple, as the rest of his disciples were not capable of such a feat, only he could transcend such a demon soul and send it into reincarnation."

"In the end, he succeeded."

"And also failed."

His eyebrows raised.

He knew nothing about the residual soul within him, Jiang Feng, and it was more fitting to describe it as "parasitic" than to judge by the relationship of past and present lives.

What does it mean to succeed and yet fail?

"He succeeded in transforming the Divine Soul of Demon Night True Monarch, although I do not know how the two managed it, but now the residual soul in your body can barely survive in this world, I’m afraid it can’t be separated from Master Guang Xian’s help, including the Spiritual Energy in your Dantian."

"As a result, he himself failed to overcome this great tribulation; not only did he go insane from cultivation deviation, but after the deviation, he killed fellow disciples and defiled the Buddhist Law, and his whereabouts became unknown."

This made him frown tightly, thinking hard about the connection between the two, one thing clear was when he was at the foot of Fangcun Mountain, he definitely felt the restlessness of Demon Night True Monarch.

Different from the last meeting with Lan Tianyong, this time the Demon Night True Monarch seemed to be urging something, or rather, reminding him of something.

Could it be that there is some hidden secret between the two?

Thinking hard and still not coming up with an answer, Jiang Feng shook his head but suddenly thought of a question he had wanted to ask for a long time but had always overlooked this serious issue.

"By the way, sister, what is the background of Sister Su Yi? Why would she be hanging out with Sister Lu Luo?"

Sitting back in her chair, Liu Tangxi did not utter a word, just lifted her eyelids to glance at Jiang Feng.

Her look was a bit like one would give to an idiot.
