Villain Master, my disciples all want to backstab me

This palm was far more powerful than the one he used against Jiang Rao before. Bai Yuan didn't even have time to react before he felt a fishy wind passing in front of him. He unconsciously took a step back and then saw the ground beneath his feet collapse. A huge palm print several meters wide and several feet long was instantly formed on the ground, and a strong smell of blood filled the air!

"!"

Bai Yuan tapped the ground with his toes and leaped before the last piece of ground collapsed. He then connected his two flying swords in mid-air and jumped several feet away. He then looked at the pitch-black pit in front of him that was more than ten meters deep and breathed a sigh of relief.

"so far so good……"

Fortunately, she had put on the [Dragon Scale Soft Armor] in advance when she came here this time. Even though Shao An was an eighth-grade Nascent Soul, he was still within the Nascent Soul realm and could not break through the defense of the soft armor.

Otherwise, Bai Yuan's [Three Corpses Reversing Fate Gu] might be triggered.

the other side.

The white tiger also looked at Bai Yuan a little nervously, as if it felt that its dignity was violated, so it roared loudly, bit half of Shao An's body, and pushed him towards the distant mountains!

The two sides dragged a vacuum belt tens of meters wide and several kilometers long in the air. They didn't know how many mountains and walls they crashed into along the way. Finally, they crashed into a thousand-foot-high cliff, rolled over and continued to attack and bite. The battle had already reached dozens of miles outside Qixia Town, and even the mountain road was wiped out!

Bai Yuan remained vigilant, watching the two move away from his sight. He breathed a sigh of relief only when they gradually became out of sight.

With this breath of relief.

She felt as if her body had been drained of energy, her hands and feet didn't seem to belong to her, and her chest was heaving violently.

This is also normal.

That strike had been a sheer effort, exhausting not only her entire spiritual energy, including the reserve stored in her Black Gold Leg Ring, but also her precious wisp of "Clear Sword Intent." She felt a little dizzy, and only her unwavering willpower kept her from falling asleep.

The Chixiao Sword in her hand also showed signs of being "overloaded". The sword was burning hot and she could hardly hold it.

"It seems that 86 times is almost approaching Chi Xiao's limit..."

"My Golden Core hasn't formed yet. Even with the support of 'Clear Sword Intention' and 'Sword Cultivation Technique', it's still too much for me to deal with an eighth-grade Nascent Soul. After this operation is over, I must find time to go into seclusion as soon as possible, at least to condense my Golden Core..."

"correct……"

Bai Yuan was thinking about it, but suddenly thought of something and looked up at somewhere in front of him.

That's where the real Yan Shu is.

When Bai Yuan arrived at the Qixia Town battlefield at the perfect time, she was already gravely wounded. Several blood-forged chains pierced her moon-white robe, staining most of her body crimson. Afterward, Bai Yuan and Bai Hu wreaked havoc, nearly razing the entire town to the ground. Yet, she was still alive, merely crushed beneath a few broken walls.

now.

When Bai Yuan walked over, she seemed to be still vaguely aware of something, but in the end she was unable to open her eyes due to her severe injuries, and her breathing rate had already dropped to a certain level.

Even if you are not a cultivator, you can see that her life is like a candle in the wind, and it will completely dissipate if you blow hard on it.

Clang——

Bai Yuan raised Chi Xiao and pointed the tip of the sword at Yan Shu's throat.

In order to finalize this plan tonight, killing Yan Shu is the best option.

It would be best to destroy the soul as well to prevent the truth from being known by a third party in the future.

Afterwards, they can put the blame on the Blood Source Sect and say that it was all done by Shao An and his men. Given the Blood Source Sect's notorious style of doing things, no one would doubt it.

but……

(You little idiot, you said... If I kill her here, will anyone know?)

【…】

The system seemed to hesitate for a moment and said nothing.

Bai Yuan clenched her palms, and the tip of the sword moved forward a half-inch, finally stopping abruptly in front of Yan Shu's neck. Then, she sighed softly, looked up at the blood moon in the night sky, and a faint, helpless smile appeared on her face:

"I really wish I could be a little worse..."

……

The battle between Baihu and Shao An did not last long.

After all, even Shao An in his prime was only slightly stronger than Baihu, and not to the extent of being able to crush him.

If the two sides start fighting, the result will most likely be mutual destruction, just like Baili Qingfeng and Baihu in the "Yuankong Secret Realm".

Shao An, meanwhile, had been struck by Bai Yuan's "86x Clear and Bright Scarlet Sky Sword" before the battle even began. While the blow wasn't fatal, it did reduce his combat effectiveness by 30%. He was then swarmed by the fierce and violent White Tiger, unleashing most of his magic skills and forcing him into close combat, a fight he found extremely frustrating.

He barely managed to maneuver for a while relying on his eighth-grade Nascent Soul cultivation. After smashing a few mountaintops, he turned into a cloud of blood mist and fled into the distance in one breath.

The white tiger chased for a while, then spread its wings and flew back, landing back in the ruins of Qixia Town.

At this moment.

Bai Yuan had just pulled Yan Shu out from the ruins and was sitting on a nearby rock to rest.

Because she was sitting a little high and there was a piece of broken wall below, her pair of white bare feet were hanging in the air, swaying gently. A few thin bloodstains on the soles of her feet were clear and eye-catching, making her toes look even more crystal white, just like frost.

"came back?"

"Ouch——"

The white tiger growled in response, with a hint of human dissatisfaction on its ferocious face, as if it was still upset about not being able to kill Shao An directly.

In this regard.

Bai Yuan smiled faintly, patted his head, and said soothingly, "Don't worry, that guy is the head of the Blood Source Sect's Punishment Hall. He has been cultivating for over two hundred years and has reached the Nascent Soul stage. He is a well-known figure in the entire demonic world. If he is killed so easily by us, then the entire Blood Source Sect will be useless. Even if we tear up the Scarlet Robe, he may have other trump cards."

Although Bai Yuan felt a little regretful, he didn't care much.

because……

Although Shao An escaped, his injuries would definitely not be healed in 20 days. Without a panacea, he would need at least one or two months of rest and recuperation.

However, her "86x Chixiao Sword" only needs 20 days to cool down.

She could even acquire a few more swords of the same rank as the Scarlet Sky Sword, raising them all to around 100 times their power. By then, she doubted Shao An would be able to easily take it on.

"Well, maybe next time. The next time we meet, that guy will be dead."

present.

Bai Yuan first took a quick look at the white tiger's body, and after confirming that it was fine and did not need to take the [Nine-Turn Rejuvenation Dew], he straightened his waist and jumped off the rock.

Then he walked barefoot to Yan Shu, squatted down, and unbuttoned her clothes.

Well... don't get me wrong, Bai Yuan doesn't want to take advantage of the situation.

Her main purpose was to examine the wounds on the Ice Soul Sword Master's body, especially those left by the Blood Origin Sect monks before she and Bai Hu arrived.

"Tsk tsk..."

"Although I've seen her in cgs many times before, but... the real person is a hundred times more beautiful than the in-game illustration! Those breasts, that waist, those legs... they're even more mature than Blood Kite's beautiful female form."

Bai Yuan made a clicking sound.

After carefully examining Yan Shu's body from head to toe, confirming the exact location of each wound, she nodded, pulled out a light green porcelain bottle from her bosom, poured a little into her palm, and then carefully poured it over Yan Shu. Those shocking wounds began to heal at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"The pure lotus pond water, soaked with ancient Wudao tea leaves... is a bargain for you."

"..."

Yan Shu's eyelids trembled in her coma, and she faintly heard a soft and bewitching voice close to her ear, with a breath as sweet as orchid:

"Go to sleep."

"Have a good sleep. When you wake up, you will remember that you met Jiang Rao on the barren mountain. At her request, you came to rescue the mysterious monk who was besieged by the Blood Origin Sect monks..."

Lingling——

The sounds of the [Heart-Confusing Bell] and the [Red Rope Anklet] rang softly.

Yan Shu was ultimately unable to resist the allure of the two bells, and finally, her consciousness sank, and she fell into a deep sleep. In her dream, faint images of light and shadow passed before her eyes, like fleeting glimpses.

then.

Bai Yuan raised her left hand again, and blood-red spiritual power emerged from her white and tender palm, transforming into thick chains facing her.

After a brief build-up of energy, these blood-colored chains suddenly shot out and hit her with a sharp sound of breaking wind!

Puff puff--

There were several muffled sounds of metal entering flesh, and Bai Yuan's body shook, and bright blood spurted out from his chest and back at the same time!

hurts a little.

But compared to the pain of reshaping the body...it's nothing.

As these injuries appeared, the [Concentric Ring] on the white tiger's neck began to glow slightly, transferring vitality to Bai Yuan according to the rules of the "Symbiotic Contract". However, she subjectively stopped it.

Then, she looked at Baihu:

"Dabai, is Jiang Rao here?"

"..."

The white tiger bent down slightly, put its ears to the ground, listened carefully for a while, then stood up again and shook its head.

"It seems there's still some time..."

Just now, Bai Yuan, posing as Yan Shu, had told Jiang Rao to "wait here," also using the [Bewitching Heart Bell]. An incense stick of time had already passed, and the fighting in Qixia Town had subsided. So, theoretically, the girl should have arrived to check on her two masters. She hadn't come, perhaps because her injuries were indeed severe, preventing her from flying with her sword and requiring only a slow walk.

then.

Bai Yuan checked around again and confirmed that there was no problem with the on-site layout before walking to the other side of the ruins and lying down, pretending to be seriously injured and closing his eyes.

She is really a little tired now.

So after lying down, I took a nap quickly.

It wasn't until the white tiger beside her licked her cheek that Bai Yuan suddenly woke up. Then she saw Jiang Rao, covered in blood, stumbling towards the end of the ruins. The master and disciple's eyes met for a moment, separated by several kilometers of rubble—a blurry glance, so blurry that they couldn't even make out each other's faces.

"Are you here yet..."

"Then we should probably leave soon."

According to Bai Yuan's script, now is not the time for her to meet Jiang Rao. The secret of the strategy is to be reluctant but shy.

So, she quickly patted the white tiger, signaling it to open its mouth and bite her, then threw her onto its back. Then, both she and the tiger turned and scurried away from Qixia Town, leaving behind only a human-shaped pool of blood and a row of tiny bloodstains, like plum blossoms quietly blooming in the dark night.

"division……"

Outside town.

Jiang Rao paused for a moment, looking at the figure that flashed by at the end of her sight, as if it was just an illusion, and suddenly a feeling of loss emerged in her heart.

Chapter 81: Shouldn't Master Find Out? (Two-in-One)

【Volatility value +200! 】

Another system prompt flashed past my eyes.

Perhaps it was because the emotional outburst on the barren mountain was too intense, draining Jiang Rao's mind. Therefore, Bai Yuan's hurried departure did not cause her much of a stir, only a small burst of fluctuation value.

But even a mosquito leg is meat, so Bai Yuan was still happy for a moment.

Then she stretched, buried her body in the silver-white fur on the white tiger's back, closed her eyes, and fell into a deep sleep.

……

now.

Ye Shuang'er, who was on Yinyue Mountain, was standing on the second-floor terrace of the sect master's bedroom, with her arms resting on the white marble fence, looking at the lush dark forest in front of her, feeling inexplicably anxious.

More than ten days have passed since Bai Yuan left the sect.

Although Ye Shuang'er had often felt anxious in the past few days, always feeling that a day without seeing her master was like a long time, she also knew that those were just her own fantasies.

Only today...

It's a little different.

Ever since dinner, Ye Shuang'er's heart had been pounding. She sent several messages to Bai Yuan via her [Pet Collar], all of which remained unread. So, she sent a voice message to her second senior sister, Jiang Rao, hoping to confide in her and ask for a solution, but Jiang Rao didn't respond either.

Unable to contact the two people closest to her, Ye Shuang'er felt extremely lonely for a moment, as if the whole world had abandoned her.

——In the Yinyue Sect, there were still some elders and disciples' rooms with candlelight on, and the lights were bright. Some of these rooms were not far from where Ye Shuang'er lived, so she could vaguely hear their loud voices coming through the night. However, humans' joys and sorrows were not something she could relate to, so Ye Shuang'er just thought they were noisy.

In this situation.

She could only quietly run to her master's bedroom, hoping to ease her worries by being closer to her master's residence.

suddenly.

Ye Shuang'er's eyelids trembled, and she caught a glimpse of a huge shadow appearing in the forest below.
