Transmigrating as a Crazy Villainess, She Becomes Invincible by Slacking Off - Chapter 23

Ruan Dongling put her arm around Yun Yan’er’s shoulder. “See? I wasn’t lying!”

Noticing Zhou Huaiwen still staring at the Medicinal Pills, Ruan Dongling snapped, “If you’re done looking, get out! Senior Sister Yan’er and I have things to discuss!”

Zhou Huaiwen’s face flushed crimson. He snorted coldly, flicked his sleeve, and stormed out.

Ruan Dongling watched Yun Yan’er clutch the pile of Medicinal Pills, refusing to put them away, still wary.

She quickly stepped forward, composed herself, and said earnestly, “Yun Yan’er! We have no deep-seated grudges between us. Regardless of everything else, you shielded me from that Demonic Cultivator’s attack—that’s a fact.”

“I hated you before, but only because of Qi Sichen. Now that our marriage contract is broken, we have nothing to do with each other anymore!”

“I’m genuinely worried about your health. These Medicinal Pills were specially obtained for you. If you refuse to accept them, won’t you break my heart for nothing?”

“It’s fine if you don’t trust me now… But one day, you’ll understand my true intentions…”

As Ruan Dongling spoke, she almost convinced herself.

Sniffling, she bit her lip, looked up at Yun Yan’er, and said earnestly, “Senior Sister, you must get better!”

Yun Yan’er lifted her head, her gaze fixed on Ruan Dongling, shedding her usual facade of fragility.

Lowering her voice, she said coldly, “Ruan Dongling, there’s no one else here. You don’t need to keep up the act!”

“Tell me, what exactly are you plotting?”

“Do you really think I’d believe you?”

Seeing Yun Yan’er’s true demeanor, Ruan Dongling felt much more at ease.

She walked to a nearby chair and sat down, casting a sidelong glance at Yun Yan’er.

“That’s more like it! Aren’t you tired of wearing that mask every day?”

“I much prefer you like this!”

Yun Yan’er glanced at the pile of Medicinal Pills in her arms and sneered. “Ruan Dongling, whatever you’re planning, I won’t let you succeed!”

As she spoke, Yun Yan’er called out, “Ran Bing, come in here!”

Though her expression was icy, her tone remained her usual soft and frail.

Ran Bing? Who’s that? Ruan Dongling wondered. Could she be a new disciple of that old woman Liyang?

She recalled seeing a unfamiliar face standing silently behind Yun Yan’er earlier, head bowed, her presence so unobtrusive that she had almost been overlooked. Ruan Dongling had assumed she was Yun Yan’er’s maidservant.

As Yun Yan’er’s words faded, a girl dressed in the uniform of a Laborer Disciple from the Dustless Sect entered the room.

Her hair was tied in a Daoist bun, and her skin was slightly tanned. She entered with her head bowed and eyes lowered.

Ran Bing bowed slightly to Yun Yan’er. “Senior Sister.”

Yun Yan’er immediately adopted her usual fragile demeanor. She casually grabbed a few bottles of medicinal pills, opened them in front of Ruan Dongling, and poured out several pills.

“Ran Bing, these pills are all suitable for you. You’ve worked so hard taking care of me these past few days. Consider these pills your reward. Take them now…”

Yun Yan’er held the pills in her hand, her face radiating condescension, as if she were teasing a puppy.

Ran Bing’s expression remained unchanged. “Thank you, Senior Sister.”

She stepped forward, accepted the pills, and swallowed them all at once.

Then she stood silently to the side.

Yun Yan’er smiled smugly before turning a provocative gaze toward Ruan Dongling.

Ruan Dongling’s expression darkened slightly at the sight.

This Yun Yan’er is truly ruthless, she thought. She’s actually using someone else to test these pills for side effects.

At that moment, Ruan Dongling suddenly didn’t want to give Yun Yan’er the pills anymore.

Does someone like her even deserve them?

Just then, the System’s voice chimed in:

Ding! Host’s contribution of “Body Solidification Pill” successful! Reward: 10 Body Solidification Pills!

Ding! Host’s contribution of “Clear Heart Pill” successful! Reward: 10 Clear Heart Pills!

Ruan Dongling turned her gaze to Ran Bing, who stood before her.

A Child of the World!

Ran Bing was also a Child of the World, a person blessed with Great Fortune!

Ruan Dongling stared at Ran Bing, activating her True Sight Eye.

Above Ran Bing’s head, words appeared: “Qi Refining Third Layer, Three Spirit Roots (Wind, Thunder, Fire), Age 16, Body Tempering Fifth Layer, ***”

The first two lines were easily understood. But what was Body Tempering Fifth Layer? And what was that hidden identity at the end?

At that moment, Ruan Dongling wished her True Sight Eye would upgrade to its highest level immediately.

After glancing at Ran Bing and then at the Medicinal Pills Yun Yan’er had placed on the table, Ruan Dongling’s smile finally became genuine.

She stepped forward and gathered all the Medicinal Pills from the table.

“Yun Yan’er, you’re truly ungrateful! I kindly gave you these pills, yet you’ve been suspicious of me all along!”

“Since that’s the case, I won’t give you these pills after all.”

“I don’t want any trouble from your simpering Senior Brothers if something goes wrong!”

Yun Yan’er had been sitting calmly, observing Ran Bing’s condition.

But when Ruan Dongling unceremoniously took back all the Medicinal Pills, Yun Yan’er’s composure shattered.

“Ruan Dongling! You! How can you be so shameless?! How dare you take back gifts you’ve already given?!”

Yun Yan’er harbored suspicions, but she genuinely coveted these top-grade Medicinal Pills. With them, she could effortlessly advance to the Golden Core stage. She never imagined Ruan Dongling would actually reclaim the pills she had gifted her.

“Shameless? You’re the one who should be ashamed! These were originally mine. I gave them to you out of generosity, but if I’m not feeling generous, I’d rather feed them to dogs than let you have them!”

Ruan Dongling snatched the two bottles of pills from Yun Yan’er’s hands. “Give them here!”

“You’re not even worthy of consuming pills refined by my Senior Sister!”

This time, Yun Yan’er was truly enraged. Her face flushed crimson with anger and humiliation.

Having retrieved the pills, Ruan Dongling swaggered out of the reception hall.

Adopting a sorrowful expression, she lowered her head and dejectedly opened the door. She cast a lingering, hesitant glance back at Yun Yan’er before approaching Duan Tianhe.

“Senior Brother, let’s go…” Ruan Dongling clutched Duan Tianhe’s sleeve, her demeanor utterly aggrieved.

“Junior Sister! What’s wrong? Did that sickly weakling bully you?”

“Good! She dares to bully you with me here? Does she think the Heaven Origin Sect has no one to defend you?”

Duan Tianhe unleashed his full aura, pressing down on the Dustless Sect members like a mountain, making it difficult for them to breathe.

“Senior Brother, let’s just go,” Ruan Dongling signaled with her eyes.

Duan Tianhe sighed in agreement and turned to face the Dustless Sect members.

“Though you never truly valued my Junior Sister, she always held you in her thoughts…”

“Leave now and never return…”

“I’ll tell you this now: Ruan Dongling is the Sect Leader’s Personal Disciple of the Heaven Origin Sect, ranked sixth!”

“She has no ties to your Dustless Sect. If you still object, I will report this matter to our Master, and she will personally resolve this matter!”

“Farewell! We won’t see you off!”

With these words, Duan Tianhe summoned his Flying Sword and departed with Ruan Dongling, who rode Too Flashy, leaving the Dustless Sect members behind.

“Junior Sister, where’s that good stuff you mentioned earlier?” Duan Tianhe asked eagerly.

“I know you’re impatient, but just wait a few days! I’ll give it to you then!” Ruan Dongling replied, equally excited.

“Junior Sister, about your Dao Foundation being purple… Huh? How did this happen?!” Duan Tianhe exclaimed in shock.

He had just noticed that Ruan Dongling’s Dao Foundation had transformed into a golden hue!
