Villainess Rampage: The Whole Sect Begs for Mercy

The two of them let out another series of sighs.

After a long while, the Seventh Elder said, ”How about this? We’ll make Ye Chuxue’s punishment a bit heavier, and then have Junior Brother Gu personally apologize to Junior Sister Song. Perhaps, given their past relationship, this matter can be resolved without much fuss.”

”If there’s really no other way, we can only act according to the rules. After all, the Sect’s regulations are there for a reason...”

It would be best if they could protect Ye Chuxue, of course. But if they truly couldn’t mediate the situation, their only choice would be to cripple Ye Chuxue’s cultivation and expel her from the Sect.

Otherwise, how could they manage the Sect in the future?

”Alright, let’s do that. I’ll have Junior Brother Gu try to figure something out first.”

The Sect Master and the Seventh Elder were of the same mind. They would first try to mediate, and if that failed, he would have no choice but to give up.

And so, a short while later, Gu Qingyuan received the Sect Master’s reply.

After listening to the message, his expression darkened abruptly. ”The Sect Master actually wants to punish you by sending you to Black Wind Prison? I won’t allow it!”

What kind of place was Black Wind Prison?

It was a place for imprisoning the most vicious and wicked criminals. Once she was sent there, it would be harder than scaling the heavens for Chuxue to ever cultivate again.

How could he bear to watch her waste away the prime of her life like that?

But Ye Chuxue wasn’t concerned about that. She was focused on the second half of the Sect Master’s message.

He wanted her Master to go and beg Song Wanning?

’How ridiculous!’

Even if she were expelled from the Sect, she would never bow her head to that bitch Song Wanning.

A vicious look flashed in Ye Chuxue’s eyes. She felt an urgent need to increase her strength.

Only by surpassing Song Wanning could they hope for a new life. Otherwise, they would be forever suppressed, living in frustration for the rest of their days!

”Chuxue, I’ll take the initiative to negotiate with Song Wanning about this. I definitely won’t let her make things difficult for you.”

Gu Qingyuan didn’t notice Ye Chuxue’s thoughts, having already made up his mind to beg Song Wanning to be merciful.

No matter what, they had known each other for a hundred years. If he pleaded with her, maybe she would soften.

But upon hearing this, Ye Chuxue’s heart sank. She raised her voice and cut him off, ”No, you can’t beg her! I would rather die than beg her for anything!”

For a moment, her expression was a little crazed, making Gu Qingyuan’s heart jump.

”I know you don’t like Song Wanning, but right now, she’s the only one who can get the Sect to drop this matter. I can’t just stand by and watch you get expelled from the Sect!”

”Don’t worry. I’ve known her for a century; I understand her better than anyone. Though she’s headstrong and spoiled, she’s actually a soft-hearted person...”

Gu Qingyuan tried to persuade her further, but his words sounded exceptionally grating to Ye Chuxue. She suddenly raised her voice and screamed, ”What do you know?! It’s all thanks to her that I’m in this situation!!!”

’Song Wanning has harmed me so much, and Gu Qingyuan is still praising that bitch?’

’Is he doing this on purpose?’

’Or... does Gu Qingyuan still have lingering feelings for Song Wanning?’

Ye Chuxue’s expression twisted for a moment.

The past was the past. But now that she had decided to accept Gu Qingyuan, his heart could only belong to her!

She immediately put on a tearful expression and said aggrievedly, ”Master, did you know? I actually ran into Song Wanning long ago in the Demon Sea. I was so badly injured by her that I couldn’t even get up!”

”She tried to force me to accept Lu Nanfeng’s advances. When I refused, she threw me, heavily injured, to him.”

”That Lu Nanfeng is no good either. He tried to take advantage of me! If I didn’t have a treasure to protect myself, I would have already fallen prey to him!”

After saying this, she could no longer hold back and began to cry, heartbroken.

There were two types of dual cultivation between a man and a woman.

One was a simple physical union, while the other was Soul Cultivation.

The first was merely carnal pleasure. The second, however, could assist one’s cultivation and deepen the spiritual bond between dao partners.

Because injuries were common in the Cultivation World, checking for virginity was unreliable and held little meaning.

And since Ye Chuxue and Lu Nanfeng hadn’t engaged in Soul Cultivation, as long as she kept her mouth shut, Gu Qingyuan would never suspect her...

This was also why she dared to fabricate such a story.

After all, Lu Nanfeng was dead, and this secret was buried with him forever.

”What did you say?!!”

Gu Qingyuan shot to his feet, his face instantly turning beet red.

His entire body was trembling with rage.

”Song Wanning and Lu Nanfeng dared to treat you like that?”

His intention to seek peace instantly turned into killing intent. Never before had Gu Qingyuan wanted to kill Song Wanning as much as he did in this moment.

His most precious treasure had been so utterly degraded by Song Wanning.

”Why didn’t you tell me sooner? If I had known, I—”

Gu Qingyuan’s furious words caught in his throat.

What could he have done if he’d known sooner? He still would have been utterly crushed by Song Wanning. That memory of eating shit was now an inescapable nightmare.

Ye Chuxue had evidently thought of this as well, and her expression became a little unnatural.

She reached out and grabbed Gu Qingyuan. ”Master, I don’t want you to bow your head to her for my sake. I won’t have it, even if I’m expelled from the Sect!”

”You’ve already done far, far too much for me.”

As she spoke, defiant tears streamed down her face again.

Gu Qingyuan’s heart ached watching her, and he pulled her into his arms.

”I’m sorry, Chuxue. Your master is useless. To think I’m only just now finding out how much you’ve suffered!”

He was both moved and heartbroken, his heart filled with nothing but infinite guilt and a love that deepened by the second.

”It’s alright, Master. You’ve already done your best. It’s Song Wanning who’s gone too far. She wants to drive your disciple to her death...”

Ye Chuxue forced a bitter smile. ”So no matter how you plead, she definitely won’t agree... Your disciple doesn’t want you to go and be humiliated!”

”Since the Sect wants to punish me, then let them! I’m not afraid! My only fear is that you’ll leave me, Master!”

She collapsed into Gu Qingyuan’s arms, her soft body pressing tightly against his, instantly making his cheeks flush.

”Nonsense. How could your master ever abandon you?”

”If the Sect insists on crippling your cultivation, then your master will leave the Sect with you!”

At this moment, with a beauty in his arms, Gu Qingyuan felt that nothing else mattered.

The Heavenly Inquiry Sect was already in decline anyway. If they had to leave, so be it!

’Those old geezers will regret it then!’

Even if they begged him to return, he would never go back!

”Really?”

Ye Chuxue had finally heard the words she was waiting for. A bright glint appeared in her eyes.

”Of course, it’s true. You are all your master cares about.”

Gu Qingyuan couldn’t help but speak his heart.

Gazing at the face so close to his, he couldn’t suppress the fluttering in his heart.

This was the treasure he had watched grow up, the bright, pure moon in the sky.

’And Lu Nanfeng dared to try and defile her?’

’Death was too good for him!’

”Master...”

Ye Chuxue’s eyes, shimmering with tears, grew hazy and then distant as she pressed closer to Gu Qingyuan again.

The two, mutually attracted, couldn’t help but embrace in the amorous atmosphere, their hands beginning to wander.

They were like dry tinder and a burning flame, ready to ignite with a single spark.

But just as their lips were about to meet, they both instinctively turned away, not wanting to recall that unbearable memory.

They fell back in an embrace, beginning to explore a new world.
