Villain Master, my disciples all want to backstab me

If I could pull out something useful...

Then there is a high probability that this operation can be completed safely.

"By the way, Master, Elder Du Sha and Senior Brother Han Xiao seem to be concerned about your injury and have even suggested meeting with you to discuss it in detail. They might take this opportunity to cause trouble."

Ye Shuang'er seemed to suddenly think of something and reminded him.

"Dusha?... I understand. I will consider this aspect."

Bai Yuan nodded slightly.

After thinking for a moment.

Bai Yuan said a few words to Ye Shuang'er, then sat up from the ice jade bed and touched Ye Shuang'er's head... Oh, she couldn't touch it, after all, she was too short now.

However, Ye Shuang'er was quite perceptive. She immediately knelt on one knee in front of the bed and allowed Bai Yuan to put his palm on her head and stroke her soft hair. During this process, she narrowed her eyes slightly, like a docile and cute big cat, looking very comfortable.

"...?"

What's up with this cat-stroking illusion?

"Master..."

Ye Shuang'er noticed Bai Yuan's gaze and shuddered. Seeing that she didn't mean to blame him, her cheeks flushed slightly and she boldly said, "Back then... when Master first brought me back to the mountain and was dressing me up, he also touched my head like this. I missed you so much that I couldn't help myself. I hope Master will forgive me."

"...It doesn't matter."

Since it doesn't cost money to pat someone on the head, Bai Yuan followed Ye Shuang'er's wishes and patted her head for a while longer.

When she stopped caressing, Ye Shuang'er was even a little reluctant to let go.

"Alright. I won't say anything more."

Bai Yuan finally changed his tone to a serious one, whispering, "If this time, your master really cannot escape this calamity, then... you should take the things I have prepared for you and leave the Hidden Moon Sect as soon as possible. Don't let me delay your own life."

"Shuang'er dare not! Shuang'er will do her utmost to help Master overcome this difficulty!"

Ye Shuang'er quickly knelt down and kowtowed.

Next.

Ye Shuang'er said a few more words, "Master, have a good rest," before leaving, looking back every few steps.

Only then did Bai Yuan turn around and jump onto the bed. Then, her pair of small feet wrapped in white silk hung in the air, swaying gently, and she called out the system: "Little waste, come out and draw the lottery!"

Chapter 12 The second pair of stockings and... the Yellow Spring Order!

[Host, please be careful with your words. This system is not...]

"I know, I know. I'll definitely do it next time! Hurry up and get the lucky bag out so I can see it!"

Bai Yuan is ready to go.

The wave of head pats just now allowed her to get the last 300 points of fluctuation value from Ye Shuang'er, and the total points successfully reached 2100. In addition to the two original big lucky bags, she could also exchange for a small lucky bag to make up the number.

It's time to take a big plunge.

"Get started, little bastard."

Following Bai Yuan's command, the system quickly responded—

[Congratulations to the host, you have won the item for whitening: Black Beautiful Lace Stockings (Black stockings woven with black spider silk, thin and breathable, with exquisite designs. Wearing them can effectively increase the host's charm. They also have the property of concealing the body shape and aura.)]

"..."

Bai Yuan opened his mouth, wanting to say something but stopping himself.

You must have bought this system from the neighboring Nuannuan mobile game. Why do you like to produce things like underwear, stockings, and gauze skirts?

If I were to make a costume mod based on the one I used when I played "Asking the Immortal" in my previous life, would I also have to include bunny girls, schoolgirls, maid outfits, JK uniforms...?

This thought just popped up in Bai Yuan's mind.

The system reacts:

[Eh, so the host likes that style of clothing? I see. This system will update and add this type of clothing to the next lucky bag. Please don't worry...]

"...Tongzi, you're just asking for my revenge for calling you 'little waste', right?"

"Okay, then I'll change my name."

Bai Yuan took a deep breath, then clasped his hands together and said softly in a sweet voice, "System brother, please let me use two powerful magic weapons! Shuang'er can do anything, please~"

【…】

The system seemed to freeze for a moment before faintly displaying the next line of text:

[Host, please don't do this. I'm scared...]

I don’t know if it was the “big brother system” that worked, or if my luck simply improved.

In short, in the big lucky bag that Bai Yuan spent 2000 fluctuation points to exchange, two magic weapons really appeared -

[Congratulations to the host, you won the Red Rope Anklet (an exquisite anklet woven from multiple sections of red rope, adorned with jade, bells, and other ornaments. When shaken, it makes sounds that can confuse the mind, causing them to see and hear things they fear.)]

[Congratulations to the host, you have drawn the Broken Yellow Springs Order (an ancient treasure for ghost cultivators, which can open the Ghost Gate on a yin day or at a yin time every month, driving the ghosts of the netherworld to fight. However, this treasure will damage one's virtue, so it is not advisable to use it frequently, otherwise it will damage one's soul.)]

"Ok?"

Bai Yuan's eyebrows twitched.

The first item is still an ornament, but based on the anklet, it has an added feature of "confusing the mind". Judging from the description, it is a bit like constructing an illusion.

But it is still hard to say what the specific effect will be.

Bai Yuan plans to study it carefully later.

As for [Yellow Spring Order]...

This thing is not ordinary.

This magic weapon appeared in "Asking the Immortal".

The location of the discovery is an ancient secret realm. It is said that a thousand years ago, it was once the lair of a powerful ghost cultivation sect, which was destroyed for unknown reasons. Bai Yuan, as the "protagonist", infiltrated the realm with her harem to explore and search for treasure. She witnessed a cultivator accidentally triggering the [Yellow Spring Order], causing the "Gate of Hell" to open wide.

As the ghost soldiers passed by, nearly a hundred cultivators from both the righteous and demonic paths were melted into blood without any resistance, including many cultivators at the Golden Core and Nascent Soul stages. In just a moment, the entire secret realm was reduced to a ghostly domain.

Although the system's [Yellow Spring Order] has a damaged suffix and its power may be weakened, it should still be more than enough to deal with the likes of Xiao Qing and Jiang Wanrong.

"It just so happens that in a few days it will be the yin day and yin time of this month. Let's set the trap to be opened at that time..."

Bai Yuan made up his mind.

……

Hidden Moon Mountain, Law Enforcement Hall.

Du Sha, who was thin and had an eagle-like and wolf-like look, stood in front of the hall with an uncertain expression on his face.

In front of him.

Disciple Han Xiao was whispering:

"Master, please make the decision!"

"Ever since returning to the mountain that day, Xue Yuan has been hiding in her cave, never showing up. Even her presence has almost vanished. This is totally unlike her. It seems the rumors are true. She has indeed been seriously injured by the masters of Qingxuan Sect. This is the best opportunity to eliminate her! If we give her time to recover, it will probably be too late!"

"Who does Ye Shuang'er think she is? A disciple who has only reached the ninth level of foundation building at the age of seventeen, holding a token, dares to act as the sect master's duties. This is simply an insult to you, Master."

"As long as Xue Yuan dies, with Master's prestige and strength, he will be the undisputed next leader of the Hidden Moon Sect!"

Listen to these words.

The corners of Du Sha's mouth curled up unconsciously, but he quickly suppressed it, and then he shouted coldly: "What do you know, shut up!"

"The Sect Master is a powerful being in the Spirit Transformation Realm, with unfathomable cultivation. How could a mere Qingxuan Sect possibly harm her? As for the information about her aura... within the Sect Master's bedroom, there's a secret room filled with restrictions. Even I can't decipher its secrets... let alone you."

"I can pretend I didn't hear what you just said. But if you continue to make irresponsible remarks like this, I will have no choice but to arrest you and punish you according to the sect's rules!"

"...Master is right in teaching me this. It was me who spoke nonsense."

Han Xiao was startled and immediately shut his mouth.

then.

Du Sha seemed to realize that his words were too harsh, and his tone softened slightly. He said soothingly, "You can leave now. Remember to tell the disciples below to behave themselves these days and not give others any reason to criticize you. As for the Sect Master..."

"If you have nothing to do these few days, you can go find Ye Shuang'er more often and ask her what she has to say. If the Sect Master is really seriously injured as the rumors say, then we, as his subordinates and disciples, should go and visit him and offer our assistance."

"Yes."

Han Xiao understood his master's subtext, bowed silently, and then backed away.

Du Sha watched him walk away, then turned back to the inner hall, closed the door, and spoke in a deep voice:

"Come out."

As Du Sha spoke, the light and shadow on the floor changed several times, and then two figures flashed out from behind the pillars.

If Ye Shuang'er were here, she would be surprised to recognize that these two people were Xiao Qing and Jiang Wanrong, whom she had just met a few days ago.

now.

The two Qingxuan Sect disciples exchanged a glance and bowed to Du Sha. "Senior Du, I wonder what you think of the cooperation we just mentioned?"

Chapter 13 Lure the snake out of its hole

"Ah."

Du Sha did not answer immediately, but first looked at Jiang Wanrong with greedy eyes, especially at her fair neck, swallowed his saliva, and then said with a forced smile:

"You two are quite courageous. With only the Jindan realm as your cultivation, you actually dare to sneak into the heart of the Hidden Moon Sect. Aren't you afraid that I will kill you here?"

"Senior Du is joking."

Jiang Wanrong smiled slightly, met Du Sha's gaze, her eyes flickering, "You are a powerful being at the Nascent Soul stage, it would be easy for you to attack us, but what good would that do, other than completely offending the Qingxuan Sect?

"My master, Elder Kongxuan, and Sect Master Qinglingzi will not let this go."

"On the contrary, if you cooperate with us and kill the Blood Kite Demon Lord together, you will become the new leader of the Hidden Moon Sect, and the Qingxuan Sect will also become famous. It's such a win-win situation, why not do it?"

"Oh, is it so?"

Du Sha's tone remained cold. "The Sect Master and I do have some ideological disagreements, but she is the pillar of our Hidden Moon Sect. Putting aside the fact that he 'returned seriously injured,' that's just your one-sided account. If Xue Yuan truly died, how would the Hidden Moon Sect, without a Divine Transformation Realm master, survive in the martial arts world? I'm afraid your Qingxuan Sect alone could strangle us to death."

"Senior Du is worrying too much."

"The Blood Kite Hunt was personally planned and participated in by several elders of my sect. Even Elder Kongxu, who had been in seclusion for decades, has returned. How could this be fake?"

"As for the Hidden Moon Sect you're worried about...

Jiang Wanrong paused, her tone becoming more subtle. "Qingxuan Sect is a reputable and righteous sect, and would not do something that would go back on its word. Furthermore... the merit of killing the 'Blood Kite Demon Lord' is enough to elevate our Qingxuan Sect's reputation to a new level. If we then annihilate the 'Hidden Moon Sect', where will our Qingxuan Sect go to fight demons and defend the righteousness in the future?"

This statement is already quite explicit.

Du Shadu was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter: "I didn't expect that the fairy is also a person of temperament. What she said is very true. In this case, please sit down and discuss in detail."

……

“…People from the demonic sect are truly disgusting.”

Half an hour later.

Jiang Wanrong left the Law Enforcement Hall and returned to the dense forest in the back mountain. She patted the dust off her clothes with a look of disgust, as if she wanted to get rid of the evil cult aura on her body.

Xiao Qing next to him also had a bad look on his face.

"Just be patient. This is all due to our sect's mission... Although Du Sha has a mean streak, he's at least straightforward and not good at using schemes and tricks. Furthermore, with his aptitude, he won't be able to ascend to the Divine Transformation Realm within the next ten years. Having someone like him become the leader of the Hidden Moon Sect is a good thing for us and the entire righteous path."

"When there is a more suitable candidate in the future, we will replace him."

That's right.

The Qingxuan Sect also understands the principle of "nurturing the enemy to protect oneself".

For those of them who are from famous and righteous sects, the excessive power of the Demon Cult is not a good thing, as it will squeeze the living space of those in the righteous sect; but if the Demon Cult disappears completely, the result may be even worse, because without the Demon Cult, it will be difficult to have righteousness.

The best thing is to maintain a balance where the right path has a slight advantage.

The power of "Blood Kite" is too strong and it is likely to break this balance, so it must be eliminated.

The Qingxuan Sect only regretted that they had acted too late, resulting in the loss of a supreme elder with the cultivation level of the Spirit Transformation Realm, but they had no regrets about hunting the Blood Kite.

As for Dusha...
