Villain Master, my disciples all want to backstab me

and many more……

Reincarnation?!

----------

ps: emm, changed the title of the book.

The original title was "The Villainous Demon Girl Only Wants to Clear Herself of All Wrath." Because the number of clicks was unusually low, I suspected the title wasn't straightforward enough, so after discussing it with the editor, we changed it to "The Villainous Master, All the Disciples Want to Backstab Me." That's it.

Chapter 40 Ji Tingxue's Questions

At this moment, Bai Yuan felt a sudden inspiration, as if he had touched something from the thick fog.

Yes!

The core concept of the gameplay of "Blood Essence Heart Falling Art", or "Reshaping Spiritual Roots", is "destruction" and "regeneration".

This concept coincides exactly with the mystery of reincarnation that [The Way of Time] is pursuing!

The so-called "walking through time" is by no means as simple as going from a loli to a girl and then to a mature woman. This change in form is only the most superficial.

If one has not truly come close to death, and then grasped a glimmer of hope from the brink of death, and seen the light of day and been reborn, how can one understand the cycle of the four seasons and the rise and fall of life?

perhaps……

This is an opportunity.

A real opportunity for her to comprehend the true meaning of [The Way of Time]!

Even if she only understood a small part of it, it would be enough for her to enter a new realm!

In an instant.

An obsession from her previous life transformed into a strong will and poured into Bai Yuan's mind, causing her to sit up in shock from her dying state. She forcibly overcame the pain of her body being torn apart, regained consciousness, and continued to activate the "Heart Meteorite Technique"!

……

Bai Yuan, who was in a state of cultivation, could not see his current appearance.

However, Ye Shuang'er, who was in the same stone chamber, saw everything clearly—

Starting from the fifth great cycle, Bai Yuan's body began to collapse.

"Collapse" in the physical sense.

To be specific, the body, which was originally as petite as a loli, was impacted and torn apart by a force generated from within, like a piece of white porcelain, which was squeezed out with countless cracks. Bright red blood plasma flowed out from the cracks, and in just a short moment, it had dyed all the clothes red.

The most terrifying thing was that her skin was covered in a strange layer, as if she was in a blazing flame and had been scalded...

No, it was really scalded.

Just a light touch of the hand at this time would be enough to scrape off a piece of Bai Yuan's flesh, and his clothes would instantly turn into ashes, which was a shocking sight.

When Ye Shuang'er first saw this scene, her mind went blank for a moment and she was almost scared to death.

She wanted to wake Bai Yuan up by speaking, but she was afraid that her voice would make her master even more obsessed, so she ran out to find Ji Tingxue. However, after a careful investigation, Ji Tingxue gave the conclusion that "everything is normal."

Is this normal?!

Ye Shuang'er was stunned and almost suspected that there was something wrong with her ears.

But Ji Tingxue's expression was very serious:

"Yes."

"Hasn't your master already told us that rebuilding one's spiritual roots is against the will of Heaven? Life and death are left to fate. Although I haven't carefully read the contents of the 'Blood Essence Heart Meteorite Art', I imagine its cultivation principle is to die first and then be reborn, to live towards death, which is very consistent with her current state."

"Things like cultivation ultimately depend on the individual. As outsiders, all we can do is try our best to relieve her worries. As for her success or failure, it depends on her. If we ignore her and interfere, the situation will likely become even worse than it is now."

As Ji Tingxue said this, he injected his spiritual sense into Bai Yuan's body again and examined it carefully again. Suddenly, a strange expression appeared on his face.

It was like discovering something that was incomprehensible.

"...I'll go out and watch first. If the situation gets worse than it is now, come back to me."

Ji Tingxue pondered for a moment and spoke slowly.

"I see."

Ye Shuang'er nodded reluctantly and sat back down.

Just as she was about to reach the door, Ji Tingxue suddenly paused, glanced back at Bai Yuan lying on the icy jade bed, and finally couldn't help asking, "Speaking of which, I've always had a question..."

"Your master...is her name really Hua Xiangrong?"

"!"

Ye Shuang'er almost lost her composure upon hearing this out of the blue, but she quickly forced herself to calm down and spoke in as natural a tone as possible, "Of course! Miss Ji, why are you asking this all of a sudden? If my master isn't Elder Hua from the Qingxin Sect, could he be a demonic cultivator from the Chiyan Sect?"

"..."

Ji Tingxue was silent for a few seconds before continuing, "That's not my intention. I just find it a little strange. This reshaping technique doesn't seem to block perception, so your master can feel the pain now. He's only enduring it with willpower, preventing his technique from collapsing..."

"I'm curious. How many times must she have experienced similar pain, or even worse, to be able to treat this kind of pain like a thousand cuts with such indifference? Why would someone with such mental fortitude join the Pure Heart Sect, which purports to purify the mind and enlighten the nature, and never engages in conflict with the outside world?"

Finish this sentence.

Ji Tingxue turned around and left without waiting for Ye Shuang'er's answer.

The rustling footsteps faded away.

Only after confirming that she had really left did Ye Shuang'er let out a long sigh of relief, still dazed, and sat back down. Then, she once again cast her gaze towards Bai Yuan on the icy jade bed, and some vague memories emerged in her mind:

That was many years ago.

When Second Senior Sister Jiang Rao was still in the sect, she had told her about the past of the "Blood Kite Demon Lord" in the form of a night talk between senior sisters.

Even Jiang Rao, who had long harbored the intention to "kill her master", sounded particularly respectful when she mentioned her master's past experience, which was completely different from her attitude when she mentioned the various evil deeds of "Blood Kite".

Ye Shuang'er didn't quite understand why Second Senior Sister had such a different attitude at that time, but now...

When the bloody Bai Yuan appeared in front of her, she began to understand how this "Demon Lord" had come a long way from being an ordinary girl. It took her sixty years to cultivate from an ordinary mortal to a powerful demon in the realm of transformation. How many ups and downs were hidden in this seemingly ordinary thing.

Maybe……

The bad attitude of "Blood Kite" towards her and Jiang Rao in the past few years was due to his own childhood experiences.

——How can a person who has been kissed by the world and has never received love care for her disciples like a mother?

Compared with the pain that my master endured in the past, what I have to endure is just a drop in the bucket.

Thinking of this, Ye Shuang'er's eyes began to turn red, and she suddenly hated her previous ignorant self.

And this violent emotional fluctuation was faithfully recorded by a certain system:

[Volatility +200]

[Volatility +150]

[Volatility +500]

【…】

Chapter 41 The formation is broken!

Time passed by minute by minute.

Before I knew it, several days had passed.

During these few days, Ye Shuang'er stayed by Bai Yuan's side all the time. Except for occasionally eating something, she basically never closed her eyes.

She watched with immense heartache as her master's aura gradually faded. From a bloody corpse at first, he transformed into a red-faced skeleton with shattered flesh and blood, and then into a candle in the wind, as if a single gust of wind would completely kill him...

Although Bai Yuan showed signs of a few brief glimmers of life during this process - that is, when the system helped him use elixirs to recover his health, he still could not resist the general trend of his aura gradually fading.

For a while.

Ye Shuang'er even thought that her master was dead, and secretly wondered in her heart what she should do if her master died.

He drew his sword and committed suicide to die for his master... Pah, what a mess. Should he say he followed his master?

Or will he inherit his master's will, work hard to refine his "poisonous spirit body", and then become the new generation of "Frost Leaf Demon Lord", making the Hidden Moon Sect great again?

Good thing...

On the morning of the fourth day, Bai Yuan's aura finally stopped being dormant and began to show signs of recovery. Although it was only a tiny bit and could have been overlooked without paying attention, Ye Shuang'er still caught it.

Thus, for the first time, the young apprentice, who had endured four days of hard work, showed excitement on his face.

Before she could go find Ji Tingxue to confirm.

A crisp sound of footsteps came from outside.

Ye Shuang'er turned around and saw Ji Tingxue appear in the stone chamber. Her face looked a little solemn: "Someone is coming in. Follow me."

"?!"

……

After a while.

Ye Shuang'er followed Ji Tingxue to the outside of the cave, in front of the waterfall hanging straight down.

Here, Ji Tingxue had set up a simple sand table formation. At that moment, the sand on the formation was trembling slightly and rhythmically, like a pot of clear water about to boil.

"Miss Ji, this is..."

"This sand table is connected to the surrounding maze. The movement of the sand represents the movement of the maze."

Ji Tingxue looked up at the thinning mist and sighed, "As early as the afternoon of the day before yesterday, a group of cultivators arrived here and got trapped in the maze. Yesterday morning, the second group arrived, and tonight, the third group arrived... Among these cultivators, there must be several who are experts in array formations. They've been trying to crack the maze these past few days, and they're almost there."

This is also normal.

Just as Ji Tingxue, a special existence, also appeared here, there were many cultivators entering the "Yuankong Secret Realm" this time, and it was inevitable that there would be a few true masters among them. Expecting that a maze could always keep them out was not very realistic.

In fact, the existence of the maze may have made them firmly believe that there is a treasure here, which is why they are so persistent in cracking it.

"Miss Ji, according to your estimation, how long can this maze last?"

Ye Shuang'er asked.

Ji Tingxue narrowed her eyes slightly, looking at the increasingly swirling fog around her, and sighed: "If it's slow, it will be within a day. If it's fast... maybe in the next second."

"Be prepared to fight. Although my Ji family still has some reputation in the cultivation world and has set up defensive formations in advance, if those newcomers try to force their way in, I have no way of predicting what will happen."

present.

Ji Tingxue sat on the ground in front of the waterfall, holding the sword [Against the Cold Water] in its sheath in front of him, while directing Ye Shuang'er to sit down in another place nearby.

"I've set up a defensive formation here. It will automatically trigger if an outsider breaks in, but it requires someone to calm the center of the formation and use a small amount of spiritual energy to keep it running. Normally, I'm enough on my own, but just in case, I need Miss Ye's help."

Ji Tingxue thought for a moment, took out a bottle of pills from her bosom, and threw it over:

"Here is a Qi-restoring pill specially made by my Ji family. If you can't hold on any longer, you can take one. With your cultivation level, you will be able to recover quickly."

"understood."

Ye Shuang'er sat on the ground like Ji Tingxue and began to try to figure out how to drive the formation.

This is not difficult.

It is basically a fool-proof operation, and with Ji Tingxue's online teaching, even a novice can master it quickly.

but……

Ye Shuang'er was a little worried about another thing——

Her cultivation level wasn't high, having only just condensed the Golden Core. For a girl of destiny with the "Poisonous Body" buff, this cultivation speed was actually a bit too slow. And the reason for this...

Well...it was mainly due to the suppression from Blood Kite. Since Ye Shuang'er was initially considered consumable, Blood Kite had basically let her do whatever she wanted over the years, never teaching her any decent techniques.

but.

If Ye Shuang'er really wants to improve her strength, there is actually a very simple way -

That is, in a short period of time, swallowing a large amount of poison pills, poisons, or even unprocessed poison sacs of poisonous monsters.

The "Gu Ling Du Ti" has a strong tolerance to poisons, and can directly convert these highly toxic substances in the eyes of ordinary people into its own spiritual power. However, if the toxins accumulate too much, there is a risk of backlash and explosion and death.

"if……"

It really has come to the final moment...

Ye Shuang'er glanced at the storage bag on her waist - it contained a bunch of poison pills she had just collected in the cave, as well as various medicinal herbs she had picked along the way after entering the secret realm, many of which were also poisonous.
