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

515: Internal strife, choiceYan Ni裳, who was continuously retreating, widened her beautiful eyes, gazing in disbelief at Chen Xuan’s figure, which had suddenly vanished without a trace. She froze on the spot, her mind a complete blank.

It took her a while to recover, her delicate body trembling violently with anger.

Her exquisite face was flushed crimson with rage.

“Damn it!”

“I clearly knew that the hateful guy’s temporary strength boost was about to expire, so why was I disturbed by his sudden kiss just now?”

The more she thought about it, the more annoyed she became. She subconsciously raised her jade hand and vigorously wiped her luscious red lips, as if trying to erase the traces Chen Xuan had left.

However, as she wiped her lips, a strange sensation involuntarily surged in her heart, making her swallow a mouthful of saliva without realizing it.

“Damn it, I actually…”

“Did he… did he leave?” Just as Scarlet Flame Matriarch’s thoughts were in disarray, Mu Qingfeng’s voice came from the large bell beside her, pulling her back to reality.

And Leng Ruoyun, who had been lying on the ground trembling like a startled rabbit, also seemed to awaken from a dream, finally reacting.

She widened her eyes and stammered, “He, he seems to have left. That’s great, we finally endured his amplified time.” After speaking, she let out a long sigh of relief, her body still trembling slightly from the fright.

“Hmph, our intelligence was wrong. We wasted a precious Immortal Core Pill for nothing. Damn it!” Mu Qingfeng emerged from the large bell, his face filled with vexation upon hearing this.

At this moment, his severe injuries had completely healed, and he looked refreshed.

However, his perfectly intact state aroused dissatisfaction from the others.

Scarlet Flame Matriarch gritted her teeth and glared at Mu Qingfeng, “Since you consumed the Immortal Core Pill and recovered all your injuries and strength, why didn’t you come out and fight alongside me? Were you just going to watch everyone in danger?”

Leng Ruoyun chimed in, “Exactly! Just now, just now, this Young Miss almost died in Yellow Springs, and you were still hiding in the large bell, watching indifferently! I even thought you were a decent person before, but now it seems you’re just a cowardly wretch!”

The more she spoke, the angrier she became. Remembering how she had made a huge fool of herself in front of the person she disliked the most, she couldn’t help but put her hands on her hips, her pretty face flushed crimson.

“Ahem, actually, I had just recovered. Chen Xuan was the one who wanted to kill me the most at that time, so I… resorted to this desperate measure! Plus, I hadn’t fully recovered just now, which is why I couldn’t come to help. I apologize to both of you.”

“Hmph, so that’s your so-called solution?” Leng Ruoyun snorted coldly.

“In my opinion, the Immortal Artifacts we currently possess might still be insufficient in power. I personally plan to go out for a while, find my Revered Master, ask her for a few more powerful treasures, and then return here to have a showdown with Chen Xuan!”

“Hmph, this is your so-called countermeasure? Wouldn’t that be equivalent to deserting in battle? It seems Leng Ruoyun was right, you are an absolute coward, a good-for-nothing!” Scarlet Flame Matriarch couldn’t help but mock him.

Upon hearing this, Mu Qingfeng’s anger flared up, and he responded with a cold sneer, “I deserted in battle? If my ears weren’t mistaken just now, wasn’t it you who loudly shouted ‘Don’t come over’? And now, you’re turning around and accusing me of wanting to shirk responsibility? That’s utterly preposterous!”

“Damn it, it’s fine if I’m afraid of Chen Xuan, but you two should stay out of this.”

“I told you you’re brainless, and you truly are! Chen Xuan just now used that peculiar secret art that can instantly boost his strength, but such a secret art must have a time limit.

At this moment, the time must have passed, and he certainly can no longer use this spell, and it’s highly likely that he’s fallen into an extremely weakened state due to the backlash. As long as we seize this opportunity to quickly find his whereabouts, we can easily kill him with a single blow!”

Mu Qingfeng frowned slightly, “Find him? That’s easy to say, but Chen Xuan has already disappeared without a trace. How do you know where he escaped to?”

“How to find him?” Scarlet Flame Matriarch suddenly cast her gaze towards Leng Ruoyun and said meaningfully, “Naturally… through her!”

Leng Ruoyun was somewhat flustered by the sudden attention, pointing at herself in astonishment and asking, “Huh? Me? How would I know where he went? Don’t talk nonsense!”

“I really didn’t realize it usually, but you truly are a blockhead! Whose hands is your Storage Pouch in now? As long as he has your item, isn’t it easy for you to pinpoint his location?!”

“Uh… well, I can actually pinpoint it. But what if Chen Xuan has no problems at all and isn’t weak? Wouldn’t we be asking for trouble if we went?”

At this moment, Leng Ruoyun seemed completely disheartened.

She recalled the scene where Chen Xuan ruthlessly defeated her with lightning speed, and a chill involuntarily surged in her heart.

From that moment on, Chen Xuan’s powerful strength was deeply imprinted in her mind, causing her to unconsciously develop an indelible psychological shadow towards him.

Chen Xuan, unbeatable.

“Hmph, what if he’s not weak? Even if he’s in perfect condition, he’s just a mere True Immortal! Are you really that timid, without even the courage to face a True Immortal? Are you still the Leng Ruoyun who used to fear nothing, even daring to challenge me?”

Scarlet Flame Matriarch looked at Leng Ruoyun with disdain, her tone full of mockery and contempt.

Listening to Scarlet Flame Matriarch’s words, a nameless anger instantly ignited in Leng Ruoyun’s heart.

“Shut up! Who said I’m timid? If you dare to underestimate me one more time, do you believe I’ll fight you to the death right now?!”

Leng Ruoyun clenched her fists tightly, glaring fiercely at Scarlet Flame Matriarch, her eyes filled with hostility.

“Fine!” Scarlet Flame Matriarch glared back, unwilling to be outdone, “Since you have the guts, let’s go now and find that Chen Xuan!”

“You two go find him. I’m not participating anyway. Goodbye!” Mu Qingfeng, seeing the two women starting again, simply cupped his hands and left the scene.

“You… coward!” Leng Ruoyun glanced at Mu Qingfeng’s retreating back and said angrily.

She had already been bullied so badly by that hateful Chen Xuan, and you just run away! The thought of Chen Xuan’s actions when he took her Storage Pouch made Leng Ruoyun’s blood rush to her head.

“It’s fine if he leaves, I wasn’t counting on him anyway. Less talk, now that Chen Xuan is weak, quickly lead the way for me!”

Watching Mu Qingfeng leave, Leng Ruoyun gave Scarlet Flame Matriarch another fierce glare, then reluctantly said, “Alright, I’ll listen to you. I’ll go find him now. But, once we find him, you must…!”

“Don’t worry, I will kill him in one encounter, so he dies before he can even react!” Scarlet Flame Matriarch’s eyes gleamed with the fire of revenge.

(Someone said they want the female lead to return. Who do you want to return?)
