Villainess Rampage: The Whole Sect Begs for Mercy

By using the Transmission Arrays connecting the cities, Song Wanning and her two companions arrived at the city where the Ning Family was located by the next morning.

The moment she set foot in the city, Song Wanning raised an eyebrow. The Spiritual Energy here was far richer than in the Song Family’s city, and it looked much more prosperous as well.

The top families occupied the best resources. Though they were all called families, the difference in their foundations was immense.

’I wonder what tricks they’ll use to try and squeeze us out this time.’

The trio headed for the Ning Family estate.

As soon as they appeared, the surrounding cultivators stopped what they were doing to watch them, their eyes glinting.

No one looked kindly upon those who had come to claim a share of their resources.

The Ning Family hadn’t even sent anyone to greet them...

Song Qingyun’s expression darkened, and he let out a cold snort.

”The Ning Family is far too petty!”

No matter how displeased they were, they should have at least kept up appearances.

A glint appeared in Mu Yuan’s eyes, but she didn’t seem surprised. ”Those three families have held their high positions for so long, their mindset is completely different now. They look down on us from the bottom of their hearts, so why would they bother with appearances?”

In other words, in the eyes of the Ning Family, the Song Family simply wasn’t worthy.

Hearing this blunt truth, Song Qingyun’s expression soured even more.

But the Cultivation World was just that pragmatic.

Strength, wealth, authority...

He composed himself. ’This time, I must protect my wife and daughter. I won’t let them be wronged.’

’Whatever dirty tricks they have, they can aim them all at me!’

...

In the main hall of the Ning Family estate, the clan leaders of the Sui and Mu Families had already arrived. In addition, each family had sent a Divinity Transformation cultivator to bolster their ranks.

Everyone was braced for a confrontation, their expressions grim.

”Ning Clan Leader, the Song Family has risen and is now brazenly trying to take a share of the resources. We absolutely cannot let them get their way.”

”The Ning Clan Leader has always been the leader of our three great families. We’ll be relying on your guidance this time as well.”

The two clan leaders’ expressions were frosty. Forcing them to give up the resources already in their hands was no different from carving flesh from their own bodies.

The pain was excruciating.

Hearing this, the Ning Clan Leader’s eyelids twitched. He unhurriedly lifted the lid of his teacup and took a sip of Spiritual Tea.

’So now that they need someone to take the lead, they’re calling me the head of the three families?’

’Hah.’

”This matter requires a joint effort from all three of our families. After all, the Song Family managed to produce two Divinity Transformation cultivators in one go. Who knows, perhaps another one will pop up soon, ha ha...”

He was only speaking casually, but his words would prove to be prophetic.

The other two clan leaders laughed.

”The Song Family must have gotten incredibly lucky in a past life to produce even two Divinity Transformation cultivators!”

”You’re quite the joker, Ning Clan Leader.”

”Exactly! I’d like to see what kind of outrageous demands the Song Family dares to make this time!”

”If they want to take something from us, they’ll have to prove they have what it takes!”

The conversation among the three clan leaders drew murmurs of agreement from the surrounding Divinity Transformation cultivators.

They could part with some resources, but the ”how” and ”how much” were still for them to decide.

The Song Family shouldn’t get their hopes up.

”Reporting! The Song Family has arrived!”

A disciple’s voice rang out from the entrance.

The expressions of everyone in the hall shifted. Before a word could be spoken, three figures were already approaching from a distance.

As per Song Wanning’s instructions, Mu Yuan had temporarily concealed her cultivation, making her appear to be at the Nascent Soul Peak.

Thus, in the eyes of the onlookers, there were only two Divinity Transformation cultivators: Song Wanning and Song Qingyun.

Furthermore, the pair had also concealed their cultivation, making them appear to have only Early-stage Divinity Transformation cultivation.

A cold glint flashed in the Ning Clan Leader’s eyes, but he had no choice but to rise and lead the other two clan leaders out of the hall to greet their guests.

The other Divinity Transformation cultivators, however, remained seated and motionless, their gazes fixed on Song Wanning.

’To reach Divinity Transformation at such a young age... Barring any mishaps, she’s certain to ascend to the Spirit Realm one day.’

’The Song Family is truly fortunate to have produced such an outstanding descendant.’

At the same time, Feng Youming, who was sitting in the farthest corner, nonchalantly opened his eyes. His scrutinizing gaze landed squarely on Song Qingyun and his companions.

His brows furrowed slightly. He had seen through the secrets of their cultivation levels at a glance.

’But the Song Family was already known to have three Divinity Transformation cultivators, so he just assumed all three had come together and paid it no mind.’

’Only...’

His gaze met Song Wanning’s, and in that instant, a dark spark seemed to flash between them. An inexplicable chill spread through the air.

Feng Youming’s eyes narrowed. He found the woman’s gaze incredibly sharp, her hostility barely concealed.

He gave a cold smile and shot Song Wanning a provocative look.

But in the next second, Song Wanning’s smile became even more brilliant than his. Then, still smiling, she slowly raised a hand and made a throat-slitting gesture at him.

The gesture was both arrogant and audacious.

The smile vanished from Feng Youming’s face in an instant. A murderous aura erupted from him, and the look he gave Song Wanning turned dangerously dark.

Song Wanning, however, kept the smile on her lips. She nonchalantly brought her hand up to her ear and tucked away a stray strand of hair, as if nothing at all had happened.

”What’s wrong?”

Song Qingyun asked in a low voice from beside her.

The trio continued walking into the hall, sizing up the people inside.

”It’s nothing. Just ran into an acquaintance.”

Song Wanning smiled gently, but her eyes flashed with a light as cold as ten-thousand-year-old Cold Ice.

’To think Feng Youming would be here...’

’Everything has changed.’

Her expression grew solemn as memories of her past life surfaced in an instant.

She had met Feng Youming before.

Back then, Feng Youming was already one of Ye Chuxue’s admirers, and Ye Chuxue was always calling him ”Brother Youming” with great affection.

The two of them had helped each other in a Secret Realm, not only making off with most of its treasures but even causing the realm itself to collapse.

At the time, she had been there too, serving as the unfortunate foil to their success.

Of course, she had run into them. To appease his beloved, Feng Youming not only severely injured her but even attempted to extract her Spirit Vein...

He had said he wanted to turn her into a human puppet and gift her to Ye Chuxue.

’If the Secret Realm hadn’t collapsed, that man might have actually succeeded in turning me into a puppet.’

Song Wanning concealed the sharp glint in her eyes and followed the clan leaders into the main hall.

She scanned the room, then deliberately took a seat directly opposite Feng Youming.

Feng Youming looked over at her, and Song Wanning smiled at him again.

She gave him a flirtatious look, and for some reason, a chill ran down Feng Youming’s back. His brows furrowed even tighter.

’There’s something strange about this woman.’

’It’s as if she knows me.’

’But how is that possible?’

’This is my first time in the Human Clan Territory. It’s impossible for anyone to know me. Even these people don’t know my real name...’

’It must be my imagination.’

Feng Youming languidly averted his gaze from Song Wanning’s, picked up his Spiritual Tea, and took a sip.

’This time, I’ll see for myself what these people from the Song Family are made of.’

’The Feng Family’s plan is imminent. I must find a weakness in the Song Family soon. If I could wipe out their entire clan in one go, that would be even better!’

Seeing this, Song Wanning also retracted her gaze and began to size up the others in the hall.

’Aside from the three clan leaders, there are four other Divinity Transformation cultivators here. Each of the families must have sent one.’

’But Feng Youming... where exactly is he from?’

’And why is he here?’

’I’ve never heard of any Divinity Transformation cultivator named Feng Youming. Could it be an alias?’
