Transmigrated As The Villain's Sword (GL) - Chapter 18.1

Their eyes met, and the moment Ling Chenyan saw her human form reflected in Guan Luowei’s eyes, she froze completely, her mind blank. Her mouth slightly agape, her eyes wide, her face was filled with shock.

The beauty in the tub also hadn’t reacted. Smooth, rounded fragrant shoulders were exposed to the air along with the rising white mist. Her slender neck was flushed a light pink by the heat, and her usually cool and aloof face was now completely rosy. The red mole under her eye also became vivid at this moment, like a flower bud after a spring rain, exuding delicate beauty and charm.

Ling Chenyan couldn’t help but stare, until the fragrant shoulders exposed to the air sank a little lower into the water. Only then did she raise her eyes to meet Guan Luowei’s gaze, which was filled with shame and anger, as if wanting to kill.

Ling Chenyan: “…” It’s over.

Before she could turn and run, a wave of demonic power struck her, throwing her outside the screen. Then, Ling Chenyan found that she couldn’t move.

She stood outside the screen, looking flustered: [System, am I done for?]

System: [You first tell me if you came back to give the big villain my share of the treasures again, and then I’ll tell you if you’re done for.]

Ling Chenyan: [Have some perspective, don’t just think about money all the time.]

The system sneered: [So that’s it, you’re going to give her betrothal gifts again!]

Ling Chenyan: [It wasn’t me, I didn’t… no, why is your focus always on this? I’m about to die, our mission won’t be completed.]

[Hehe,] the system said, [She only threw you outside the screen after you barged in on her bath. How could she bear to kill you?]

Ling Chenyan: […]

She thought about it. Although the demonic power just now had been quite strong, it had only made her feel a little numb in the legs and hadn’t injured her. Moreover, what the system said made some sense; the big villain hadn’t even thrown her out the door.

But maybe not, Ling Chenyan thought, recalling Guan Luowei’s murderous gaze just now, feeling that she might be planning to settle the score later.

Just as Ling Chenyan was pondering with her head lowered, a pair of boots suddenly appeared in front of the screen.

Ling Chenyan’s almond-shaped eyes widened slightly, and she didn’t dare to move, even guiltily burying her head even lower.

Guan Luowei just stood in front of her without speaking. Ling Chenyan also didn’t open her mouth, and the two fell into another strange silence.

This silence made Ling Chenyan feel like she was in a sea of fire, as if she was being cut into a thousand pieces. It was so uncomfortable that just as she gritted her teeth and prepared to look up, the boots took another step towards her.

Guan Luowei’s cold voice, devoid of emotion, reached her ears: “Raise your head.”

Ling Chenyan hesitated for two seconds, but in the end, she obediently raised her head to look at Guan Luowei.

Her eyes were bright, round, clear, and bottomless, looking directly at Guan Luowei with the determination of someone facing death.

Guan Luowei had already sensed from the girl’s aura that she was the silver sword. She had initially felt some shame and anger, thinking of giving the silver sword a good lesson. But when she saw the girl’s bright and inexplicably resolute eyes, her heart softened inexplicably.

So, this is what she looks like.

Like a butterfly free in spring, slowly unfolding with a comforting aura. A flash of amazement quickly crossed Guan Luowei’s eyes, which she quickly concealed before shifting her gaze slightly uncomfortably and saying, “He’s quite good to you.”

“Huh?” Ling Chenyan obviously hadn’t expected Guan Luowei’s first words to be not scolding, but a strange and unrelated sentence. Who was “he”?

The system spoke up at the right time: [Of course, it’s that little lyre spirit.]

A trace of understanding flashed in Ling Chenyan’s eyes. She suddenly remembered the “surprise” Jin Jin had mentioned to her in the cave just now. Could this be the so-called surprise?

Guan Luowei looked her up and down, her voice betraying no emotion. “He actually used a trace of his origin power for you.”

“Origin power?” Ling Chenyan asked doubtfully, “What is that?”

Could this be the reason she was able to transform into a human?

Guan Luowei didn’t answer her, only glanced at her before turning and slowly walking away.

Ling Chenyan felt somewhat inexplicable. She felt like the big villain was a little unhappy, but she couldn’t find the reason.

However, the “origin power” she had just mentioned still aroused Ling Chenyan’s curiosity, so she asked: [System, do you know what the origin power the big villain was talking about is?]

[Heh, no wonder you could transform into a human. The big villain was right, that kid is really exceptionally good to you.]

[So what exactly is it? It sounds like the kind of magic that would harm oneself.]

The system said: [It’s not magic, it’s origin. When a spirit of heaven and earth is first born, it will generate an initial power that accompanies it, which is also the source upon which the entire spirit relies for survival and growth. Origin power is to a spirit what innate aptitude is to a human. However, the difference is that a spirit’s origin power will gradually increase with the passage of time, but the speed is extremely slow. It might take hundreds of years to produce just a wisp. A newly born lyre spirit like the little lyre spirit, the origin power he used wasn’t even cultivated later, but was innate. The preciousness of it is unimaginable. This wisp of origin power has many benefits for ordinary spirits, but unfortunately, you are not a spirit, so the benefits are naturally not as many. However, it’s enough to strengthen your soul and allow you to transform from a sword.]

[Ah!] Ling Chenyan said anxiously, [Then wouldn’t extracting this be very harmful to Jin Jin?]

[What do you think? This is innate origin. You haven’t even known that kid for many days, so why is he so good to you?]

Ling Chenyan was very touched, but at the same time, she felt a little anxious. [Can this power be returned? I don’t really need it right now. If he gets hurt because of this, wouldn’t I be too guilty?]

[Logically speaking, extracting origin power would indeed cause great weakness, but you don’t need to worry too much. After all, he is a divine artifact, and the origin power is now integrated with you. If you want to return it, the only way is to refine you.]

Ling Chenyan: “…”

Forget it. Since she couldn’t return it now, she would try her best to find more spiritual objects and artifacts to see if she could help him recover as soon as possible.

However, the most important thing right now was to ensure his safety.

Ling Chenyan was pondering how to transfer Jin Jin when a voice came to her ears: “Yin Ye, come here.”

Ling Chenyan was startled. Just as she was about to say that she couldn’t move, she felt her body suddenly float into the air. In just an instant, she went around the screen and then flew straight towards the woman on the bed.

Ling Chenyan was shocked: [System, save me!]

System: [Here comes the little flying sword~]

Ling Chenyan: “…”

After Guan Luowei said those words, she suddenly felt that something was wrong and was about to get up when she saw a figure fly past the screen and rush straight towards her.

Almost instinctively, she reached out and caught the girl. A pear-like fragrance filled her nostrils, and the girl’s delicate waist, so slender it seemed she could break it with a touch, was easily held in her arms. Guan Luowei let out a muffled groan as the girl pressed down on her on the bed.

The room fell into complete silence. The candlelight flickered, and two overlapping bodies could be vaguely seen, intimately close.

The girl’s warm breath was right by her ear, one after another, brushing against her sensitive earlobe. The heat spread up her cheeks all the way, until even the deceptively fair and rounded earlobe was dyed a charming, vibrant color.

“Get up,” Guan Luowei turned her head away, steadying her voice, trying her best not to sound so nervous.

“I can’t get up.” The girl whispered in her ear, her voice aggrieved and panicked.

Only then did Guan Luowei remember that she had cast a spell on the girl. With a slight movement of her fingertips, the spell on the girl was finally released.

The soft body left her embrace, and with it went the fragrant pear scent and the lingering warmth.

Guan Luowei sat up and raised her eyes to meet the girl’s panicked, moist deer-like eyes, filled with shimmering water, like a spreading pool of emerald green. The heart nestled in her chest beat wildly and uneasily. Guan Luowei didn’t know how to react, so she just cooled her face, trying to stop her wildly beating heart.

Ling Chenyan only felt her heart beating rapidly at this moment. The instant her panicked gaze met those cold eyes, she unpromisingly shifted her gaze and nervously clenched the sleeves in her hands.

Just as she was about to open her mouth to defend herself, a cold voice came: “Transform back into your sword form.”

The voice was cold and stern, completely unlike its usual gentleness.

Ling Chenyan was stunned. She raised her eyes to meet those cold eyes, and a wave of grievance washed over her.

Really, so fierce. Wasn’t she the one who told her to come over?

Pouting aggrievedly, Ling Chenyan still transformed back into her sword form, quietly hovering in front of Guan Luowei, stubbornly refusing to look at her.

It was precisely because of this stubborn behavior that she didn’t notice Guan Luowei’s flushed earlobes slowly fading in color.

Guan Luowei took a deep breath, feeling her heart calm down a lot. She took out something from her storage bag, looked at the long sword in front of her, suppressed the strange feeling in her heart, and said to her, “Come here.”

Ling Chenyan didn’t look at her but obediently moved closer to her.

“This is for you.” Guan Luowei’s voice was flat as she handed over the thing in her hand.

Ling Chenyan couldn’t resist her curiosity and looked down, seeing a beautiful light cyan sword tassel lying in Guan Luowei’s fair palm. The tassels were light and clear, looking very precious.

Ling Chenyan curved her eyes. “Is this for me?”

Guan Luowei nodded lightly, as if giving a small trinket casually. She pulled the silver sword over and gently tied the sword tassel to the hilt.

Ling Chenyan was encircled in the woman’s embrace, smelling the familiar cold fragrance, and couldn’t help but feel excited. “Did you make this yourself?”

Guan Luowei’s fingertips paused slightly, and after a long while, she softly hummed an “hmm.”

In a place where no one could see, the heat rose to her earlobes again.

The silver sword in her hand looked extremely happy. After Guan Luowei tied it on for her, she excitedly swung the sword tassel a few times and asked, “Do I look good?!”

“Good-looking,” Guan Luowei couldn’t help but curl the corners of her lips, looking at the silver sword in front of her.

“Hehe! I knew Master was the best!” Ling Chenyan immediately decided to forget the scene of Guan Luowei being fierce to her just now.

No wonder she had been avoiding her these past few days. It turned out she was secretly making a sword tassel for her!

Overjoyed, Ling Chenyan transformed into her human form and happily hugged Guan Luowei, nuzzling against her in her embrace. “Thank you, Master! I’m going out to show off!”

Having said that, she didn’t care about Guan Luowei, who was stunned on the bed, and transformed into her sword form, quickly flying out of the bamboo house.

Guan Luowei looked at the silver sword, which had a somewhat fleeing air, and a belated heat rose on her face. The pear-like fragrance from the girl seemed to still linger at the tip of her nose. The soft cheeks had pressed against hers, warm and soft, like a cute little animal.

With a nameless smile on the corners of her lips, Guan Luowei sat quietly on the bed and slowly began to adjust her breathing.
