Transmigrated As The Villain's Sword (GL) - Chapter 10
The sky was the color of water, clouds gathered in clumps, and golden sunlight pierced through the dense white, scattering across the land. Lingyun City was bustling, with many pedestrians already on the streets.
The Lingyun Inn, however, was a different scene. Early in the morning, the inn’s occupants were awakened by an angry shout, followed by doors being kicked open and rooms being forcibly searched. Many people were roused from their sleep, and women’s screams mingled with men’s angry roars, making the inn very noisy.
Ling Chenyan was still unaware of what had happened. She looked at Guan Luowei sleeping beside her, lost in thought.
Last night…
Ling Chenyan couldn’t help but shiver. The memories in her mind flooded back like a tide, almost suffocating her.
Last night, she actually!
Offered herself!
Said she wanted to introduce a wife to Guan Luowei, but strongly recommended herself! And what made her tremble both physically and mentally was that Guan Luowei had actually accepted!
Thinking of this, Ling Chenyan couldn’t help but feel a wave of dizziness and collapse onto the bed, saying to the system, [System, I actually have amnesia, right? What happened last night was all fake, right?]
The system coldly interrupted her fantasy: [No, it’s all real, Sword-san. As you wished, Guan Luowei is already your wife.]
Ling Chenyan roared inwardly: [No! System! Why didn’t you stop me! How am I supposed to face her now!]
System: [Heh, you gave all the jewels you promised me to the demon witch as a betrothal gift. Why don’t you think about how to face me?]
Ling Chenyan: “…” Wuwuwu, I will never talk big again.
Ling Chenyan was on the verge of tears, the entire sword lying limp on the bed, pretending to be dead.
Guan Luowei heard the girl’s inner roar and looked at the silver sword’s lifeless appearance. The corners of her lips couldn’t help but curve upward. “Yin Ye, it’s time to get up.”
Ling Chenyan didn’t move.
Guan Luowei rolled over and got out of bed, her hair catching the sunlight, her profile like a deity. Ling Chenyan actually heard a hint of a smile in her voice.
“If you don’t get up soon, you’ll be caught.”
Ling Chenyan originally wanted to stay in bed, but suddenly remembered what else she had done last night besides finding herself a wife. She had emptied someone else’s secret room and also secretly drank a lot of wine.
Ling Chenyan directly sat up in shock from her near-death state and asked, “Where are they now?”
Guan Luowei’s lips curled. “They’re here.”
Sure enough, as soon as Guan Luowei finished speaking, the door was pushed open the next second. Several burly men entered, looking fierce as they stared at the bed, shouting, “Everyone get up! Our boss lost something. Everyone come over and let us search.”
The room was silent for a long moment. The burly men were impatiently about to curse when a leisurely sound of footsteps rang out.
“Tap, tap, tap.”
The burly men looked up, ready to scold, but the moment they saw the person in front of them, their mouths hung open and their eyes widened, unable to utter a word.
The woman’s black hair was tied behind her head, revealing her stunning face. She wore white clothes as pure and cold as snow, and her slightly upturned phoenix eyes showed a sharp and indifferent curve. Most strikingly, there was a red mole beneath her eye, like a rose on ice, a winter plum blossom in the snow, the only touch of red in a vast expanse, rich and beautiful, making one’s breath tremble.
The burly men clearly hadn’t expected the person in the room to be of such beauty. They were stunned for a good few breaths before looking at the woman with greedy eyes.
“You, we suspect you stole something from our master’s house. Now, obediently take off your clothes and let us check.”
Guan Luowei looked at the burly men, her eyelashes slightly lifted. In an instant, a vast and chaotic power erupted. The burly men fell to the ground one after another, instantly silent.
And Guan Luowei only gently lowered her eyes to look at the stiff silver sword behind her, her lips curving. “Let’s go.”
Ling Chenyan’s legs went weak. She looked at the several burly men who had died silently and said to the system, trembling, [System, do you think she’s warning me that anyone who lusts after her body will end up like that?]
System: [Hehe.]
Ling Chenyan followed Guan Luowei with wobbly legs, continuing, [I’ve decided, I have amnesia. I actually don’t remember anything that happened last night.]
The system said faintly, [You tricked her into becoming your wife~]
Ling Chenyan: […Please shut up.]
The system whispered devilishly: [She’s your wife~]
Ling Chenyan: [I’m sorry, System Bro, I was wrong. I shouldn’t want to cuddle every beautiful person I see.]
Ling Chenyan now felt what it was like to be isolated and helpless. She followed Guan Luowei tremblingly, her heart in her mouth the whole way, but Guan Luowei seemed to have completely forgotten what happened last night.
Ling Chenyan gradually became bolder.
Since the big villain was pretending to have amnesia, it would be impolite for her to remember.
Ling Chenyan immediately put aside her shyness and went shopping with Guan Luowei. Since they were already here, it would be a pity not to buy something to take away.
So, a scene like this appeared on the street: a woman of stunning beauty followed behind a sword. The sword would tug at the woman’s sleeve, wanting this and wanting that. And the woman didn’t show a trace of impatience. She bought whatever the sword wanted. By the time they reached the end of the street, the woman was holding no less than dozens of items.
Ling Chenyan looked at her spoils with great satisfaction and said in her heart, [System, I actually think she might have feelings for me, otherwise why would she indulge me so much?]
System: [Hehe.]
Guan Luowei heard Ling Chenyan’s words and couldn’t help but raise her eyebrows slightly. She gently leaned closer to the silver sword and whispered, “Is Madam still satisfied? Do you need to buy anything else?”
Ling Chenyan’s happy figure suddenly froze. She could hardly believe what she had heard. She jumped back, trembling as she turned to look at Guan Luowei. “Ma-ma-master, I-I-I…”
“Hmm?” Guan Luowei’s voice rose at the end, with a slightly seductive undertone. “What’s wrong, Madam?”
Ling Chenyan: […Help, System, I think I’m going to get a nosebleed if this continues!]
The system ignored her. Ling Chenyan’s mind was blank, and she didn’t know what to say. She jumped out of the shadow cast by Guan Luowei and stammered, “Ma-ma-master, I-I-I last night…”
Looking at a sword in such a flustered state was indeed a bit cute and funny. Guan Luowei raised an eyebrow, as if recalling something. “Last night? Weren’t we…”
Before Guan Luowei could finish speaking, Ling Chenyan quickly interrupted, “No, no, no, those were all words I said when I wasn’t clear-headed. They don’t count. I didn’t mean it. I was just talking big for a moment.”
So please don’t chop off my head.
“Oh,” Guan Luowei lowered her eyes thoughtfully. “Is that so?”
Ling Chenyan nodded quickly. “Yes, that’s how it is. You don’t need to return the things. Consider them all my apology for offending you.”
Please spare my little life.
Guan Luowei nodded. “I understand.”
After speaking, she started walking back. Guan Luowei actually knew in her heart that the girl’s words last night weren’t so much about liking or admiring her, but more like an appreciation for beautiful things, willing to treat them with a little more kindness.
So she didn’t blame the girl for her abruptness last night, and was even willing to be gentler with her.
Ling Chenyan didn’t know what Guan Luowei was thinking. She said to the system nervously, [System, do you think the big villain will just kill me if she gets upset?]
System: [Hehe.]
[Stop “hehe-ing.” It’s just some jewelry. I’ll find more for you next time.]
System: [Who knows if you’ll give my share to the demon witch as a betrothal gift again next time?]
Ling Chenyan: [No! Absolutely not!]
••••
Three days later, the Lingxiao Immortal Sect’s once-every-three-years disciple recruitment event began. Countless people rushed from all over the four continents, wanting to enter the number one sect in the world and cultivate to attain the Dao. Lingyun City was packed with people, everywhere were disciples coming to join the sect.
Early in the morning, Ling Chenyan saw Guan Luowei get dressed, change her face, and then change her appearance as well, carrying her by her side.
She looked at the bundle on Guan Luowei’s back and asked, “What are we going to do?”
Guan Luowei put away the bundle, slightly parted her red lips, and uttered four words: “Seek a master and learn skills.”
Ling Chenyan’s eyes widened, and she asked tentatively, “Go to the Lingxiao Immortal Sect?”
Guan Luowei nodded and instructed, “After entering the sect, you must not speak casually.”
Generally, swords that gave birth to sword spirits could only communicate with their own masters, but for a sword like Ling Chenyan that could also communicate with others, she was clearly not ordinary. If she spoke rashly, she might attract covetous eyes.
Ling Chenyan nodded cautiously, thinking that Guan Luowei had also entered the Lingxiao Immortal Sect in her previous life, but that was for the male lead, Mu Yunze. What was it for this time?
She thought about it and decided it was still for Mu Yunze. Yes, to take his dog life.
The Lingxiao Immortal Sect was indeed the number one sect in the world. Ling Chenyan looked at the crowded streets, completely blocked, and couldn’t help but feel a little ashamed. Fortunately, Guan Luowei could fly.
When the time to open the sect gates arrived, countless people surged forward. Ling Chenyan and Guan Luowei stood on a tree, and after watching the people below gradually start to line up, they went over to join them.
The Lingxiao Immortal Sect’s disciple recruitment was divided into three stages. The first part was a test of innate talent and aptitude, the second part was a test of perseverance and endurance, and the third part was a test of combat skills and strength.
Only those who passed these three stages could join the Lingxiao Immortal Sect as outer disciples. As for inner disciples, naturally, only those who excelled in all three aspects could qualify.
For Guan Luowei, the first two stages were easily passed. Moreover, she had the experience of her previous life and was also very experienced in disguising demonic power.
By the third stage, nine out of ten applicants had been eliminated. Even so, the remaining people filled most of the competition arena.
The third stage involved having these qualified disciples spar with disciples within the sect, while the elders watched from the side. If one could last three moves under the hands of a sect disciple, they would meet the entry requirements.
At that time, Guan Luowei stood below the stage, but she didn’t hear the rules the elder was speaking. Her gaze was entirely focused on one person on the stage.
That person wore a black robe, his black hair tied behind his head. He was handsome and spirited, and he seemed even more charming when he talked and laughed with others.
This person was naturally Mu Yunze.
Unlike Guan Luowei, Ling Chenyan’s gaze was fixed on a gentle and beautiful woman beside him. She said to the system in her heart, [System, that beauty beside the male lead should be the female lead of this novel, Lin Qinghuan, right?]
The system gave an affirmative answer. Ling Chenyan couldn’t help but click her tongue twice and said, [What a waste, such a beautiful flower stuck in cow dung. How can such a pretty beauty have her eyes blinded by cow dung?]
System: [It might be because the male lead saved her life. After all, she’s the younger sister he picked up.]
Ling Chenyan: [I can’t stand seeing beauties being ruined. I have to think of a way to seduce her away so she won’t be ruined by the male lead.]
System: [Tch, you scumbag woman, you forcibly married the big villain yesterday, and today you want to seduce the female lead. What’s the difference between your behavior and the male lead’s?]
Ling Chenyan: [How can there be no difference? The male lead wants to possess her for himself, but I just want to give all the beauties in the world a home.]
System: […]
Guan Luowei, listening to the girl’s unreliable remarks inside the sword, didn’t know why, but a feeling of discomfort suddenly welled up in her heart. This feeling came quickly and strangely, and when she consciously paid attention to it, it quickly dissipated.
Guan Luowei coldly raised her eyes to look at Mu Yunze on the stage, thinking that perhaps it was because she saw something disgusting that she felt uncomfortable.
Author’s Note:
Mu Yunze: Why blame me for this too?
Guan Luowei (raising her sword): Go die.
Ling Chenyan (peeking out): Thank you, scapegoat.
