The Protagonist Stole My Spiritual Roots? The Heroine, Give Me a Good Birth!

409: I feel very comfortable when Mengjie praises me“I…I didn’t! Senior Martial Uncle Li, you don’t believe me either!” Ye Xingchen was on the verge of tears.

“Mengjie, if you don’t make a decision soon, I’m afraid the reputation of Feixian Sect will be ruined by an unfilial Disciple like you!” Li Qingfeng said righteously.

Hua Mengjie struggled internally. She knew that if things continued like this, Feixian Sect’s reputation would indeed be affected. She gritted her teeth and finally made up her mind.

“Hall of Enforcement, please deal with this matter as soon as possible.” After saying this, she turned and left, leaving Ye Xingchen to bear all the accusations and scorn alone.

Seeing Hua Mengjie leave, the Disciples of the Hall of Enforcement began to deal with Ye Xingchen.

“Ye Xingchen, you have committed such a heinous crime. According to the laws of Feixian Sect, we will escort you to Black Prison and imprison you for life,” a Disciple from the Hall of Enforcement said coldly.

Upon hearing this, Ye Xingchen felt even more despair. Black Prison was an extremely terrifying place, where some extremely vicious criminals were held. It could be said that anyone imprisoned there lived a life worse than death.

“No! I don’t want to go to Black Prison! I’ve been wronged! I’m innocent!” Ye Xingchen struggled desperately, trying to escape the control of the Hall of Enforcement Disciples.

However, it was already too late. The Disciples of the Hall of Enforcement disregarded Ye Xingchen’s struggles and forcibly escorted him to Black Prison.

The matter came to a temporary close here.

Chen Xuan watched, marveling.

“This guy is really honest. The Cultivation World isn’t Earth; couldn’t he just make a Heavenly Dao oath to prove his innocence? Why bother with such a pale explanation?”

“Or…has this protagonist of yours also been affected by Heavenly Dao’s intelligence reduction? System, pull up Ye Xingchen’s information for me!”

“Ding, retrieving…”

Name: Ye Xingchen

Cultivation Realm: Undergoing Tribulation Seventh Stage (Foundation stable)

Innate Potential: Heavenly Spiritual Root (Bright future ahead)

Special Physique: Fallen Devil Body

Cultivation Technique: Feixian Art

Skills Mastered: Wind Blade Slash, Heavenly Lightning Charm, Water Dragon Strike, Clear Wind Sword Art, Thousand Shadow Art…

Immortal Soul: Evil Eye Lord

Immortal Soul Martial Skill: Evil Eye Domain, Electric Eye Pressure, Mental Interference…

Current Luck Value: 270,000

Intelligence Reduction Level: 50%

Current Goal: Strive to prove his innocence and find the mastermind.

“So he really was affected by intelligence reduction. Well, that explains it.”

“…Wait! How did this guy’s Luck value directly soar by 200,000? Is something wrong, System?”

“Ding, the regret genre is like this; the protagonist will become stronger with each setback!”

“Alright, since he’s currently imprisoned, according to the plot development, either he’ll be locked up for a few years, or he’ll be framed again, or the Black Prison here holds Demonic Path members who will enlighten Ye Xingchen, eventually allowing him to escape.”

“And then, it’s the much-anticipated revenge arc. However, in many novels, when it comes to revenge, the protagonist acts like he’s lost his mind, becoming indecisive and dragging things out.”

“The people being revenged upon, seeing his hesitation, start to take advantage, and eventually, the protagonist gets angry, and the jumping clowns meet their demise, leaving readers frustrated. Even when the culprit dies, they still feel angry, tsk tsk tsk.”

System: “…”

“The most crucial thing is, I don’t know where this kid’s fated female lead is, otherwise I would have gone to conquer her already! Maybe she’s in that Black Prison, I still need to find time to go there, but for now…”

“Let’s try dealing with the people outside first.”

Chen Xuan muttered to himself, then noticed Li Qingfeng and Hua Mengjie approaching him with smiles.

“Brother Chen, long time no see.”

“Ah, Brother Li, long time no see, long time no see! How have you been recently?”

“Thanks to your Peach Blossom, I feel like I’m just one step away from Breakthrough recently!” Li Qingfeng said with a smile.

“Hmm, that’s great news, Brother Li. How about we go to my Immortal Cave for a chat?”

“It would be disrespectful to refuse. Thank you, Brother Chen!” Li Qingfeng agreed, then followed Chen Xuan to the Immortal Cave with Hua Mengjie.

“Mengjie, serve tea. Bring out those tree of life leaves of mine and treat Brother Li well!”

“Aye.” Hua Mengjie responded and went to prepare, but halfway there, she realized.

“I’m clearly not his… maidservant anymore, so why do I just… as soon as I come in here?”

“tree of life leaves?! Brother Chen, how did you obtain such a treasure?” Upon hearing this, Li Qingfeng no longer cared about Chen Xuan ordering Hua Mengjie around and kept pressing Chen Xuan with questions.

“It was a fortunate Opportunity, actually…”

As the two chatted, Hua Mengjie soon approached, carrying a teapot filled with water from the tree of life.

“Come, Mengjie, Brother Li here is a dear friend of mine, like a brother. Quickly fill Brother Li’s cup first, and then pour tea for me,” Chen Xuan said with a faint smile.

Hua Mengjie did not respond verbally to Chen Xuan’s words, but she obediently acted according to his instructions.

She moved gracefully, walked to the table, picked up the teapot, and elegantly filled Li Qingfeng’s teacup.

Then, as Hua Mengjie turned to pour tea for Chen Xuan, she suddenly noticed Chen Xuan staring intently at her with a very displeased look.

In an instant, Hua Mengjie felt a surge of panic, for she knew that this look meant Chen Xuan was very dissatisfied with her current performance.

Hua Mengjie pondered for a moment, and like a flash of lightning, she instantly understood the problem—it turned out she hadn’t used kneeling service!

Realizing this, she dared not delay for a moment. She hurriedly and reverently knelt on both knees, moved to Chen Xuan’s feet, steadily held the teapot with both hands, and carefully began to pour tea for Chen Xuan.

At this moment, she didn’t even dare to breathe, fearing that she would anger Chen Xuan again.

Li Qingfeng saw this, a hint of surprise flashed across his face, followed by immense admiration.

“Mengjie is truly doing her best to please Chen Xuan for my sake. It’s truly not easy for someone at the Mahayana Stage to go to such lengths! No wonder Chen Xuan is so polite to me now, even willing to use tea steeped with tree of life leaves for me. So it turns out Mengjie is putting in the effort!”

Thinking this, Li Qingfeng felt a surge of contentment. He picked up the tea in his hand and examined it.

Meanwhile, Chen Xuan, noticing that Li Qingfeng’s attention was on the tea, reached out and gestured towards the person kneeling by his leg.

Before long, Hua Mengjie finally reacted again, immediately pushed Chen Xuan away, and fled as if escaping.

“I, I see your room is a bit messy. I’ll help you tidy it up!” After saying this, she directly darted into her own room.

“Mengjie is truly a kind and good woman. Brother Li is indeed very fortunate,” Chen Xuan said, looking at Li Qingfeng, implying something.

“Yes, Mengjie is someone I know best. She’s been warm-hearted since childhood and loves to help others! I imagine she’s helped you quite a bit these past few days, hasn’t she?”

“Indeed, Mengjie is not only warm-hearted, but also has a warm tongue. The pleasant words she speaks every day make me feel extremely comfortable! For this, I specifically gave her quite a few Peach Blossoms, hahaha!”

“That’s good, that’s good! It’s our honor to befriend you, Brother Chen, hahaha!”

“Come, have some tea! Have some tea!”
