Transmigrated As The Villain's Sword (GL) - Chapter 12
The situation came suddenly, and before many people could react, Mu Yunze’s face turned ashen, and he quickly cast a barrier to block everyone’s view.
The culprit, Ling Chenyan, was at this moment smugly leaning against Guan Luowei’s embrace.
Guan Luowei: “…”
She looked at the silly sword beside her, and thinking of the fleeting moment of nervousness she had felt earlier, she couldn’t help but purse her lips, a hint of annoyance flashing in her eyes. How could she have thought for even a moment that Yin Ye would abandon her?
Ling Chenyan was completely oblivious, still lazily leaning against Guan Luowei’s embrace, even rubbing her hand against Guan Luowei’s as if seeking praise.
When Mu Yunze came out after changing his clothes, he saw Guan Luowei stroking the silver sword with a slight smile on her lips. However, the smile didn’t last long and crumbled the moment she saw him come out.
Mu Yunze had made such a fool of himself in front of everyone, and even the person he admired was by his side. His face immediately darkened, and he stared at Guan Luowei and the silver sword beside her with a composed gaze.
Guan Luowei, however, showed no intention of apologizing and also stared coldly at Mu Yunze.
Seeing that things were not right, Li Xiu quickly stepped forward and said, “Senior Brother, this silver sword has a rather strange temperament. It teased my sword spirit during the competition. Surely, this time it must also be the sword spirit acting mischievously and has nothing to do with Junior Sister.”
After speaking, he turned his gaze to Guan Luowei and said, “Junior Sister, the sword spirit is naughty. You still need to keep a closer eye on it.”
These words were already offering Guan Luowei a way out. As long as the blame was placed on the silver sword, the matter could be considered settled.
Guan Luowei stared at Mu Yunze and said faintly, “I forgot to tell Senior Brother, although my sword spirit is delicate and spoiled, it can distinguish between good and evil and has never attacked anyone except those who harbor covetous thoughts towards it.”
Guan Luowei’s lighthearted words caused everyone’s expressions to change. Everyone present was a sword cultivator and naturally knew that coveting someone else’s sword was no different from wanting to kill that person. Sword cultivators had always regarded their swords as their lives. If Junior Sister was telling the truth, then the sword spirit’s actions could be considered excusable.
However, they looked at their Senior Brother and didn’t believe he was that kind of person.
Mu Yunze looked at everyone’s gazes and then at Guan Luowei’s confident tone. His heart skipped a beat, but he quickly calmed down and maintained a composed expression. “Nonsense! I am also a sword cultivator and know the importance of a sword to a sword cultivator. How could I covet your sword!”
He spoke plausibly, with an air of hating evil as if it were his enemy. Many disciples believed him, and some even said to Guan Luowei, “Junior Sister, perhaps it sensed wrongly. After all, sword spirits can also make mistakes. Senior Brother is not that kind of person.”
Guan Luowei naturally didn’t expect them to believe her. Although what she had said earlier was indeed fabricated, it was also based on something. In her previous life, Mu Yunze had been very interested in all swords in the world that had awakened their sword spirits, naturally including hers.
However, until the very end, he hadn’t been able to snatch Yin Ye from her.
Guan Luowei lowered her eyes slightly and said, “Is that so? Then does Senior Brother still want to see my sword?”
As she spoke, she slightly raised her hand, revealing the silver sword resting peacefully in her palm.
Mu Yunze’s face darkened, and he immediately said, “No, I’m afraid I’m not worthy to look at Junior Sister’s sword.”
After saying this, he bid farewell to Li Xiu and reached out to pull Lin Qinghuan beside him.
Ling Chenyan had long been thinking about saving the female lead. How could she really let his pig hooves touch her? Therefore, the moment Mu Yunze reached out, Ling Chenyan quickly stepped forward, using her sword to slap away the male lead’s hand and standing between the two of them.
Mu Yunze’s face was ugly, and he gritted his teeth as he looked at the silver sword protecting Lin Qinghuan. He said coldly to Guan Luowei, “What does Junior Sister mean by this?”
Guan Luowei glanced at him lazily and then turned her gaze to Ling Chenyan.
Lin Qinghuan looked at the silver sword that had suddenly appeared in front of her with some surprise. Her round eyes blinked slightly, revealing a puzzled expression.
Ling Chenyan tried very hard to express her meaning. She used the tip of her sword to point at Mu Yunze, then waved her sword body, and then, standing between the two of them, led Lin Qinghuan away from the male lead.
The meaning couldn’t be any clearer.
Lin Qinghuan found it a bit amusing. She tucked a stray strand of hair behind her ear and said with a smile in her eyes, “Are you saying I should stay away from Senior Brother?”
The sword in front of her floated up and down, giving a subtle feeling of nodding.
Lin Qinghuan chuckled and said to Ling Chenyan as if coaxing a child, “Okay, I’ll stay away from him.”
Ling Chenyan naturally saw that Lin Qinghuan was just humoring her, feeling anxious and somewhat helpless at the same time.
After all, for the female lead, the male lead had picked her up from the icy snow and saved her life, and later treated her so well. How could she leave the male lead just because of her slight prompting? It was already very good that she hadn’t given her a cold shoulder for cutting the male lead’s pants earlier, let alone willing to coax her now.
But the more this was the case, the more Ling Chenyan felt it was a pity.
Before she could do anything else, Lin Qinghuan smiled gently and patted her head, saying, “Then I’ll go first.”
Ling Chenyan was stunned by the touch, and belatedly, her face flushed slightly. She said to the system in her heart, [The female lead is too gentle, I love this type too.]
System: [I suggest you don’t love her yet, turn around and look at the villain.]
Ling Chenyan: […Oops, I was so busy saving the lost girl that I forgot the big villain was watching behind me.]
Ling Chenyan turned her head and saw the big villain give her an ambiguous glance, then slightly turned her head to look at the female lead who was passing by her.
The two brushed past each other. At the moment Guan Luowei turned her head, Lin Qinghuan also turned her head as if by telepathy, giving Guan Luowei a kind smile.
Guan Luowei watched her walk past expressionlessly. At one point, a layer of faint demonic power suddenly surged into her dark eyes. The demonic power came quickly and went even faster, dissipating in just an instant.
After it dissipated, Guan Luowei looked at Lin Qinghuan’s back and frowned slightly.
Coming back to her senses, she looked down and saw the silver sword, full of guilty written all over it, nestled by her hand. Guan Luowei recalled her appearance in front of Lin Qinghuan just now, narrowed her eyes and sized up the silver sword for a long time, but in the end, she still ignored her.
Seeing that everyone had left, Li Xiu led Guan Luowei to her residence, gave a few instructions, and then parted ways with her.
After the door closed, Guan Luowei walked silently to the bamboo bed, looking at the well-behaved silver sword in front of her with a smile that wasn’t quite a smile.
Ling Chenyan: [System, why do I have a strange feeling of being caught cheating?]
System: [It’s not strange, you were caught cheating in person.]
Ling Chenyan: “…”
In the silence, Guan Luowei spoke first, her voice cold. “You liked that woman so much, why didn’t you leave with her then?”
Ling Chenyan: “…I didn’t like her, I was just afraid she would be deceived by that man. After all, that man didn’t look like a good person.”
“Oh?” Guan Luowei said, “If you were so worried about her, why didn’t you go with her?”
Ling Chenyan: “…”
Seeing that the silver sword was silent, Guan Luowei glanced at it, reached out and sucked the silver sword into her hand, and rubbed the spot where Lin Qinghuan had touched it with demonic power, quite irritably. She said coldly, “You’re not picky at all. You’re happy no matter who touches you.”
Ling Chenyan was as quiet as a chicken, maintaining silence. She said to the system in her heart, [System, could it be that the big villain is jealous?]
System: [Are you starting to dream before it’s even dark?]
Ling Chenyan: [I’m serious.]
System: [I’m also serious.]
Ling Chenyan: [Sword speechless jpg.]
Seeing that the system didn’t believe her, Ling Chenyan’s eyes rolled, and she said to Guan Luowei, “Master, what if one day I leave with someone else?”
Guan Luowei’s hand paused. She subconsciously wanted to clench the sword tightly in her hand, but remembering what the girl had just said, she slowly loosened her grip and pretended to be indifferent. “That is also your choice. I will not force you to stay.”
The system heard Guan Luowei’s answer and immediately said, [Look, I told you you were being sentimental.]
Ling Chenyan pouted, a little unhappy, and said, “Okay, then what if one day you meet a better weapon and don’t want me anymore?”
Guan Luowei’s lips curled. “That would be even simpler. I’ll just change to another one.”
Ling Chenyan: [System, you’re right, wuwuwu, I was indeed being sentimental. How could the big villain be jealous of me, wuwuwu, I’m sad and want to cry.]
The system comforted her, [It’s okay. After all, she’s the big villain. It’s understandable that she only cares about messing with the male lead and doesn’t put anyone else in her heart.]
Ling Chenyan: [Wuwuwuwu.]
Listening to Ling Chenyan’s rather sad words, Guan Luowei’s eyes flickered slightly. After struggling for a moment, she finally pursed her lips and pretended to be relaxed. “I forgot to tell you the complete version. If you really choose to leave with someone else, I will indeed not force you to stay, but I will find you, break the bones of the person you chose, make chains out of his bones, and lock you by my side day and night. That could also be considered fulfilling the two of us.”
Ling Chenyan: [!]
System: [!]
Hearing the big villain’s words, Ling Chenyan was not only not scared but even a little happy. She immediately said to the system triumphantly, [System! Look, I told you she has feelings for me!]
After showing off to the system, Ling Chenyan spoke again, “How could that be, Master? I definitely won’t leave with anyone else!”
“You better not.” Guan Luowei gave her a meaningful glance, then looked at the sky outside that had already darkened, and continued, “It’s getting late. We should set off.”
••••
The moonlight was hazy, and darkness enveloped the earth. After a day of disciple selection, the elders and disciples of the Lingxiao Immortal Sect were somewhat tired. In addition, with many new disciples entering the sect, some senior and junior brothers were busy guiding the new disciples, so the defense and guarding of some places were indeed a bit lax.
Under the moonlight, a figure skillfully avoided the patrolling disciples, freely moving through the sect.
Based on her memories from her previous life, Guan Luowei arrived in front of a cave with the strictest guard. This was the Xuanjing Cave, used to imprison disciples within the sect who had committed serious mistakes. When her identity as a demon cultivator was discovered in her previous life, she had been imprisoned here for a period of time.
If those captured Demon Clan disciples were not dead, then they were most likely imprisoned here.
Guan Luowei’s eyes flickered slightly. Several strands of demonic power dispersed from her fingertips and quietly floated towards the group of guarding disciples. Before long, the disciples standing in place had empty eyes, like soulless puppets.
Guan Luowei stepped out of the shadows and slowly walked into the Xuanjing Cave.
The cave was dim, and a damp, rotten mildew smell mixed with a strong smell of bl00d floated in the air. Some disciples who had been beaten bloody could be faintly seen inside the cave, but there were no Demon Clan disciples.
Guan Luowei frowned. She raised her foot, about to walk deeper into the cave, when a sudden change occurred.
The silver sword that was originally hanging at her waist was suddenly enveloped by a golden light, and the next second, it directly disappeared into the air. Guan Luowei’s expression changed. She was about to follow the aura where the golden light disappeared when she found that the aura had suddenly vanished without a trace.
On the other side, Ling Chenyan arrived in a cave. The thing in front of her was emitting golden light, illuminating the entire cave brightly.
Ling Chenyan was about to say that this thing was really going to blind her sword eyes when she heard the system exclaim in shock, [Holy crap, isn’t that the Illusion God Lyre?]
The Illusion God Lyre?
Ling Chenyan thought about it. Wasn’t that one of the four divine artifacts?
Her eyes immediately lit up, and she said to the system, [Holy crap, shouldn’t we steal it?]
Just as the system was about to speak, Ling Chenyan rushed over, trying to lift the Illusion God Lyre with her sword body. However, after trying for a long time, the Illusion God Lyre remained motionless.
Ling Chenyan was panting from exhaustion, wondering why the lyre was so heavy, when a naked, golden-glowing child appeared curiously in front of Ling Chenyan.
Their eyes met. Ling Chenyan felt rather awkward and was about to say something when she heard the child ask in confusion, “Who are you? Why are you holding my butt?”
Ling Chenyan: “?”
Author’s Note:
Ling Chenyan: Children don’t have butts.
Illusion God Lyre: Nonsense!
