Transmigrating as a Crazy Villainess, She Becomes Invincible by Slacking Off - Chapter 40

“Ruan Dongling! You vile b1tch! I’ll kill you!”

Ruan Dongling and Yun Yan’er were locked in a fierce struggle, Ruan Dongling determined to prevent Yun Yan’er from rescuing the disciple.

“Yun Yan’er, oh Yun Yan’er, I never thought you’d turn on your own people! How ruthless! Tsk tsk…”

Their cultivation levels were evenly matched. Yun Yan’er possessed powerful treasures, making it impossible for Ruan Dongling to kill her, and Yun Yan’er was equally powerless against Ruan Dongling.

Thus, they could only exchange blows in an endless back-and-forth.

Only when the disciple finally breathed his last did Ruan Dongling finally relent, satisfied. “Alright, Yun Yan’er, all three of your precious Junior Brothers are dead. I’m done playing with you!”

“Remember this: you killed those Foundation Establishment disciples! Don’t even think about pinning it on me! Farewell!”

Ruan Dongling cackled, her heart brimming with satisfaction.

“Ruan Dongling! I will report this incident truthfully! You will pay for this!”

Yun Yan’er was driven to madness by Ruan Dongling’s taunts. She screamed at Ruan Dongling’s retreating figure, her carefully cultivated facade of refinement completely shattered.

Abandoning the fight, Ruan Dongling activated Gale Step and fled at full speed.

She paid no heed to Yun Yan’er’s threats.

Regardless of her actions today, Yun Yan’er would never let her off easily.

It was a pity she couldn’t kill Yun Yan’er, that pest. Eliminating her would have been a permanent solution to all her troubles.

With Yun Yan’er gone, the entire drama would end. Ruan Dongling could finally roam the Cultivation World freely, doing whatever she pleased, no longer the villain!

Ruan Dongling felt genuinely cursed.

Why did she always encounter such bizarre situations in these desolate, uninhabited places every time she left the city?

This time, she gritted her teeth and filled all the Demon Sealing Stones, then planned to wander around the city, eating, drinking, and enjoying herself until it was nearly time to return.

Typically, for missions like this, the Sect’s Communication Jade Slip would send a message urging disciples to return as the deadline approached.

Ruan Dongling decided to wait until she received the Jade Slip’s message before heading back.

It was just like submitting a work report—you had to submit it right on time.

Submitting early?

Absolutely impossible! Don’t even think about it!

After parting ways with Yun Yan’er, Ruan Dongling continued wandering through the old forest, casually collecting any small demon beasts she encountered into the Demon Sealing Stones.

In less than half a day, the final Demon Sealing Stone was finally full.

Beaming with joy, Ruan Dongling carefully stowed the crimson stones into her Storage Pouch, then let out a whistle.

A golden bird suddenly flew out from nowhere and landed on her shoulder.

It was Too Flashy, now shrunk to a tiny size.

Ruan Dongling poked Too Flashy’s head with her finger and waved her hand grandly. “Let’s go! Meat and wine!”

Having completed her mission, Ruan Dongling felt light as a feather. She changed her clothes, bought a fan from a street vendor, and transformed herself into a handsome young gentleman.

“Little Butterfly Demon, just perch on my crown and don’t move. I’ll show you the sights!”

With a flourish of her fan, she entered Cuiying Tower.

She had long wanted to experience the renowned pleasures of listening to music in a brothel. If it proved truly enjoyable, she planned to bring Duan Tianhe along next time.

But moments later, Ruan Dongling burst out, her face smeared with rouge and powder, exclaiming, “I can’t take it anymore!”

Perhaps her dashing appearance and generous spending had drawn too much attention. The courtesans had swarmed her, showering her with kisses and caresses, leaving her no room to refuse!

“These sisters are certainly enthusiastic!” Ruan Dongling muttered, wiping the greasy lipstick from her face and frowning.

Finding a discreet corner, she quietly cast a Purification Art, finally cleansing her face.

Just then, a sharp pain pierced her ear, causing her to tilt sideways. “Hiss~ Ouch! Which bastard—”

Just as Ruan Dongling was about to call out, she saw an enlarged, handsome face looming over her. Who else could it be but Duan Tianhe?

“Ruan Dongling, you dare go to a place like this?” Duan Tianhe’s face was flushed with anger, perhaps from the fury itself.

“Going is one thing, but you didn’t even wait for your Senior Brother?” With that, Duan Tianhe released Ruan Dongling’s ear, his expression righteous indignation.

“It’s not fun at all! You can’t handle the sisters’ enthusiasm! Even I couldn’t!”

Ruan Dongling rubbed her throbbing ear, hissing softly under her breath.

“Senior Brother, what are you doing here? How did you find me?” she asked, curious.

“As a dignified Nascent Soul cultivator, do you think I couldn’t find my own Junior Sister?” Duan Tianhe glared at her.

“Hmm? That ornament on your crown is quite unique…” Duan Tianhe reached out to touch it, but Ruan Dongling slapped his hand away.

“Don’t touch it! What if you break it? It’s so delicate!” Ruan Dongling nearly blurted out about the Little Butterfly Demon.

But then she reconsidered. What if Duan Tianhe found out and tried to force the Little Butterfly Demon into the Demon Suppression Tower?

This Little Butterfly Demon was clearly harmless and well-behaved. She had no intention of letting him be confined to that tower.

Seeing Ruan Dongling’s reluctance, Duan Tianhe didn’t press the matter, though his gaze kept drifting to the crown on her head.

“What about you? How’s your mission going? I heard from the disciples you collected six stones this time. How many have you captured?”

Duan Tianhe and Ruan Dongling walked side-by-side through the bustling streets, their striking appearances drawing curious glances from passersby.

“Look!” Ruan Dongling said, pulling out the six stones. Before she could even open her palm, Duan Tianhe’s wide sleeve swept over her hand, concealing them.

“Just tell me. Why show them off? Trying to attract attention?”

“With a Nascent Soul master like you protecting me, who would dare try to steal them?” Ruan Dongling brushed off his concern.

Duan Tianhe’s expression turned serious. “Come, let’s find a place to eat. I have something important to discuss with you.”

Ruan Dongling knew Duan Tianhe wouldn’t have come to the Human Realm without a reason. It seemed he had come specifically to find her.

She led him to the city’s grandest and most luxurious restaurant, ordering a table full of dishes and two jars of the Jade Forest Wine Duan Tianhe had been craving.

They settled into a private room, ready to eat and talk.

As the dishes arrived, they fell into a comfortable silence, focusing solely on the food.

Though the ordinary fare of the Human Realm couldn’t match the exquisite taste of dishes made with Spirit Plants, it possessed a unique warmth and lively, earthy flavor that was deeply comforting.

Both were formidable cultivators, and they nearly cleared the entire table.

And then there was Too Flashy.

Despite his shrunken form, Too Flashy ate just as much as ever.

Full and satisfied, they leaned back in their chairs, patting their bellies.

Ruan Dongling picked her teeth and asked, “What’s wrong, Senior Brother? Why so serious?”
