Villainess Rampage: The Whole Sect Begs for Mercy

”Can I help you?”

Song Wanning raised an eyebrow, looking at him with some surprise.

’Isn’t Wu Yaozu supposed to be asking the Ghost King Valley for an elixir?’

’Why did he come looking for me?’

”My lady, I’m begging you to refine an Elixir Pill for my sister! We can discuss any payment, just please agree!!!”

Wu Yaozu was still a little intimidated when facing Song Wanning.

But he also knew he was the one who had provoked her first, so he was behaving more deferentially now.

”My lady, this isn’t the right place to talk. Could we move somewhere else to discuss this in detail?”

His eyes were full of pleading. ”If you’re still holding a grudge over what happened, you can hit or curse me however you please. I absolutely won’t fight back!”

”I just beg you to give me a chance. My sister really needs this Elixir Pill!!!”

The person Wu Yaozu cared about most was his sister. Seeing Song Wanning hesitate, he actually started slapping his own face.

”It’s all my fault! I shouldn’t have run my mouth, and I definitely shouldn’t have had improper thoughts about you, my lady!”

”It’s all my fault. I’m just an idiot...”

”My lady, I beg you, please give me a chance!”

He was out of options. They had gone to the Ghost King Valley several times to request the Elixir Pill his sister needed, but even they couldn’t refine it, so the matter had been delayed until now.

A few days ago, he had heard that a genius disciple from the Ghost King Valley had appeared, one who could perform Alchemy and refine all sorts of Elixir Pills, which was why he had brought his men here...

If his sister lost all hope because of him, he truly felt that even dying ten thousand times wouldn’t be enough to atone for his mistake.

SLAP—

Wu Yaozu slapped himself again and again. Song Wanning’s expression grew serious as she watched him, a hint of surprise in her eyes.

’I thought he was just some good-for-nothing bum, but it turns out he actually has a conscience when it comes to his sister.’

A dark glint flashed in her eyes. ’If the Wolf Fang Gang can provide a High Rank Pill Recipe, I might as well give it a try.’

’If not, then I won’t go looking for trouble.’

”Alright. Let’s find a place to discuss the terms first.”

She raised her hand, and a burst of power caught Wu Yaozu’s swinging palm.

”Really?”

Wu Yaozu was overjoyed, a look of delight spreading across his face. He immediately led Song Wanning to the nearest inn.

Song Wanning didn’t want to waste time with pleasantries and got straight to the point. ”What Elixir Pill do you need me to refine?”

”A Super-grade Spirit Communication Pill!!!”

Wu Yaozu dismissed all his attendants, sending them to stand guard at the door to keep their conversation private.

This was a secret that not just anyone should know.

”A Super-grade Spirit Communication Pill?”

Song Wanning had never heard of this Elixir Pill, but judging by the name, it was likely an elixir to help Ghost Cultivators achieve a breakthrough.

”Yes. Because it’s a Super-grade Elixir, only the Valley Master of the Ghost King Valley can currently refine it...”

”But the Ghost King Valley’s Valley Master has been in seclusion for many years, so the Ghost King Valley hasn’t sold any Super-grade Elixirs in decades!”

”As for that Wu Mingxu, he’s considered the one most likely to make a breakthrough, which is why he dares to be so arrogant!”

Wu Yaozu was incredibly envious of Wu Mingxu. ’We both have the surname Wu, so why is there such a huge gap between us?’

If he had that kind of talent, maybe one day he could refine a Super-grade Spirit Communication Pill himself.

He briefly explained the situation with the Ghost King Valley, then stared at Song Wanning with pleading eyes, worried she would refuse.

In his heart, however, he didn’t hold out much hope. After all, a Super-grade Elixir was just too difficult to create...

After listening to his story, Song Wanning understood the situation. Wu Yaozu’s sister must be stuck at a certain bottleneck, unable to advance her cultivation.

She was in desperate need of an Elixir Pill.

’This is a good opportunity to negotiate. After all, those High Rank Pill Recipes can’t be bought on the open market, even with money. I need to cooperate with someone of status.’

After a moment of contemplation, Song Wanning nodded.

”Alright, I’ll go with you to the Wolf Fang Gang.”

”Ah? Really?”

Wu Yaozu’s eyes lit up. ”My lady, you—you can refine a Super-grade... Elixir?”

He was so excited he stammered, utterly stunned.

He had approached many Pill Masters before, but they had all refused him outright. No one dared to take on the request.

Now that Song Wanning had agreed so readily, how could he not be thrilled?

”Let’s not waste any more time. Let’s go.”

Song Wanning stood up. Time was money, and she was eager to use Alchemy to enhance her Divine Soul!

”Yes, yes, yes! Let’s go, let’s go! Right now!!”

Wu Yaozu grinned from ear to ear. He immediately sent a message back to his sister before leading Song Wanning out of the inn.

When the attendants saw Wu Yaozu’s sycophantic behavior, they all felt it was too embarrassing to watch.

The group quickly headed toward the Wolf Fang Gang’s headquarters.

Before long, news that Song Wanning was impersonating a Ghost King Valley disciple had spread throughout the nearby cities.

Wu Mingxu was still stewing over Song Wanning’s talent. After all, he was supposed to be the most gifted disciple of the new generation in the Ghost King Valley.

’My junior sister was right. If the Ghost King Valley hears about Song Wanning and recruits her, my own position will be in jeopardy.’

Therefore, he had to completely sever any possibility of Song Wanning being accepted by the Ghost King Valley!

And so, thanks to his carefully crafted propaganda, Song Wanning’s image was instantly transformed into that of a hateful imposter.

Meanwhile, the news that the Wolf Fang Gang had invited Song Wanning to their headquarters also began to spread.

When Wu Mingxu learned of this, he flew into a rage.

”The Wolf Fang Gang is really something else! Did they just let what I said that day go in one ear and out the other?”

He was red-faced with anger, wishing he could rush over to the Wolf Fang Gang right now and force them to kick her out.

’Daring to cooperate with Song Wanning... aren’t they deliberately trying to make an enemy of the Ghost King Valley?’

”Senior Brother, I don’t think the Wolf Fang Gang is intentionally opposing you. After all, that woman, Song Wanning, is truly formidable!”

”I imagine it won’t be long before she can refine a Tenth Grade Elixir. At that point, we’ll be the ones who have to learn from her.”

Fang Lan remarked with a sigh.

”Pah! Her? As if she’s worthy!!!”

Wu Mingxu’s anger was ignited once again, and he cursed out the Wolf Fang Gang with a torrent of abuse.

”No, this won’t do. I have to contact the Ghost King Valley immediately. A single word from my Master, and the Wolf Fang Gang will come crawling to me to beg for forgiveness!”

With that, he immediately sent a message to the Ghost King Valley. In his embellished account, Song Wanning was transformed into a thoroughly despicable villain and a massive fraud.

And he, of course, was the messenger of justice.

As Fang Lan listened to his self-righteous tirade, a sarcastic smile touched her lips. ’This idiot. He’s always just been a pawn for me to use. One day, everyone around him will grow to despise him. Including our Master! I’m the one who is truly capable of shouldering great responsibility. I will be the next genius to refine a Tenth Grade Elixir!!!’

...

”Second Leader, you’ve returned!”

”Mhm. Where’s my sister?”

”The Gang Leader is handling administrative matters.”

”Alright, I’ll go find her!”

Wu Yaozu eagerly led Song Wanning toward his sister’s study, but the stares from those around them seemed a little strange.

He was in a hurry to see his sister, so he paid them no mind.
