Transmigrating as a Crazy Villainess, She Becomes Invincible by Slacking Off - Chapter 47

Ruan Dongling turned her head and immediately noticed a stone box on the table.

The Treasure-Seeking Worm was wriggling excitedly all over it, clearly worked up.

Seeing this, Ruan Dongling stepped forward to pick up the box, but to her surprise, she couldn’t lift it on her first attempt.

The box looked small, yet it was absurdly heavy!

Ruan Dongling decided to simply open it right there on the table.

Inside lay a dusty gray oval object and a strange, jet-black object of unknown material.

She first picked up the oval object to examine it.

It resembled an egg, almost like one carved from stone.

But Ruan Dongling quickly realized it wasn’t stone at all—this egg contained a faint spark of life!

“Wow! What kind of egg is this? Could it be a phoenix egg? Haha, it’s not impossible for the Chosen One to find a phoenix egg!”

Whatever kind of egg it was, it was definitely something valuable!

Ruan Dongling stowed the egg in her Storage Pouch.

She then touched the jet-black object. Its texture was neither stone nor iron, yet it felt remarkably like jade.

It was incredibly heavy in her hand.

Though she didn’t recognize the object, that didn’t stop her from storing it in her Storage Pouch.

As soon as the object entered the pouch, Ruan Dongling felt a sudden weight at her waist.

She clicked her tongue inwardly—this thing was no joke.

Besides the box, there was also a stone lamp on the table.

The stone lamp was unremarkable, its oil long dried up.

Ruan Dongling peered inside the lamp and touched the bowl, surprised to find the oil seemed to have dried only recently. It still felt slightly damp to the touch—truly peculiar.

She added the stone lamp to her collection.

The Little Butterfly Demon perched on her head gently fluttered its wings.

The stone chamber was now empty, but Ruan Dongling was already satisfied with her gains.

Just the Azure Immortal Wood cushion alone made this trip to the Secret Realm worthwhile! In terms of value, this wood rivaled the Earth Treasure Azure Profound Grass.

After clearing the chamber, Ruan Dongling scanned the room one last time, finding nothing else.

The Treasure-Seeking Worm had gone silent and began wriggling its way out.

Quickening her pace, Ruan Dongling exited the cave.

As soon as her head peeked out, her heart tightened. Like a turtle withdrawing into its shell, she recoiled back into the cave.

A deafening boom echoed as a large swath of trees nearby shattered into splinters!

Whoa, that’s a brutal attack! They’re clearly after my life!

Who is this? What grudge could they possibly hold to strike with such ferocity?

“Hmph! I finally found you!” A sharp, feminine voice accompanied the whip’s shadow as it lashed toward the cave entrance where Ruan Dongling stood.

Stones flew in all directions as the cave entrance collapsed.

Ruan Dongling activated her Divine Shield Technique, enduring the hail of flying debris as she soared into the air before landing gracefully on the ground.

Looking up, she realized her attacker was none other than Shangguan Yun’er, the yellow-robed maiden who had relentlessly pursued her over a discarded melon seed shell.

Ruan Dongling glanced at the sky, ignoring Shangguan Yun’er’s furious expression. “Hey, how long have you been here?” she asked.

Having slept soundly in the cave, Ruan Dongling needed to gauge how much time had passed.

Shangguan Yun’er stiffened, her grip tightening on her whip. “Country bumpkin! What trick are you trying to pull? There’s no one here to protect you!”

Ruan Dongling rolled her eyes. “I asked how long you’ve been here. Can you just answer? And what do you want with me?”

“Hmph, what do I want?” Shangguan Yun’er sneered.

“You overestimating fool! A piece of trash like you dares to compete for opportunities in the Secret Realm?”

“You True Martial Prefecture scum should obediently hand over any chances you find!”

“Those old geezers actually injured my Senior Brother. I’ll start collecting interest on that debt from your worthless hide!”

Ruan Dongling’s anger flared. So the robber thought they were justified?

Before Shangguan Yun’er could finish speaking, her whip lashed out toward Ruan Dongling’s face!

Ruan Dongling dodged the whip’s tip, drawing Crimson Cloud Sword and unleashing the Void Cicada Sword Art in a swift strike against Shangguan Yun’er.

The two women clashed instantly.

Ruan Dongling was at the early stage of Foundation Establishment, while Shangguan Yun’er was at the mid-stage, a minor realm higher.

Shangguan Yun’er had initially believed she could easily kill Ruan Dongling, a backwater cultivator from the mountain’s edge, with two strikes of her whip.

But as the fight progressed, she realized this was far from the truth.

Though Ruan Dongling’s cultivation realm was lower, her movement techniques and sword technique were remarkably refined, clearly derived from top-tier Cultivation Manuals.

How could such advanced techniques exist in this remote, impoverished region?

This is utterly absurd!

Shangguan Yun’er grew increasingly furious.

In Azure Cloud Province, she was virtually invincible among her peers and frequently challenged cultivators of higher realms.

Yet now, against this “country bumpkin” she had completely underestimated, she couldn’t gain the slightest advantage!

How could she possibly accept this?

Even her vaunted whip technique couldn’t touch Ruan Dongling’s shadow.

As the battle wore on, Ruan Dongling began to enjoy herself. Watching Shangguan Yun’er’s mounting frustration only improved her mood.

It reminded her of something Director Zhang, a graduate school entrance exam coach who also performed crosstalk, had once said: “Hey, you graduated from a prestigious university, and I graduated from some no-name college. Who’s under more pressure during the interview?”

You have to adopt the mindset of a troublemaker: “Eh, I’m going down in flames, I’m giving up and lying flat, and I’m dragging everyone else down with me!”

Eh, I’m going to piss you off!

“Oh, is that all you’ve got? You’re supposed to be the genius of Azure Cloud Province? Is that it? Is that it?”

“You want to kill me? Then make your move!”

Ruan Dongling taunted Shangguan Yun’er with malicious glee as she fought.

Shangguan Yun’er, still young, couldn’t endure such provocation.

“You b1tch! You’re asking for death!”

Shangguan Yun’er’s aura suddenly shifted, her mid-Foundation Establishment cultivation surging to late-Foundation Establishment! The intensity now hinted at the power of a Golden Core cultivator!

“Whoa, whoa, she’s unleashing her ultimate move!” Ruan Dongling yelped, activating Gale Step to instantly distance herself from Shangguan Yun’er.

Shangguan Yun’er’s long hair floated without wind, and her whip, like a living serpent, extended rapidly toward Ruan Dongling.

Despite Ruan Dongling’s evasive maneuvers, Shangguan Yun’er relentlessly pursued, preventing her from widening the gap between them.

As expected, Heavenly Prides always have a few tricks up their sleeves.

Ruan Dongling dodged Shangguan Yun’er’s whip while taunting, “Oh no! Heavenly Pride, your belt is coming loose!”

“Wow~! So… so white and big!”

Ruan Dongling’s eyes widened dramatically, shamelessly darting toward Shangguan Yun’er’s chest from every angle.

Shangguan Yun’er’s face flushed crimson, genuinely worried her clothes might have come undone.

Her ultimate move had a lengthy wind-up, and Ruan Dongling’s distraction had already disrupted her focus before she could even begin.

Glancing at Ruan Dongling’s expression, Shangguan Yun’er instinctively lowered her head to check her attire.

Now was her chance!

Seizing the moment Shangguan Yun’er looked down, Ruan Dongling abruptly pivoted from her forward dash, lunging toward her opponent instead!

The Crimson Cloud Sword slipped from her grasp, leaving a fiery red blade shadow to streak toward Shangguan Yun’er with lightning speed!

“Ah!” Caught off guard, Shangguan Yun’er could only parry with her whip.

But the Crimson Cloud Sword moved too swiftly. Despite her best efforts, the blade still sliced through her robes!

This time, her belt truly snapped…

The Crimson Cloud Sword circled back, returning to Ruan Dongling’s hand.

“Ah~!” A piercing scream tore through the sky.

Shangguan Yun’er nearly exploded with fury. Her belt had snapped, her robes had fallen open, and her face burned crimson enough to drip bl00d. She completely abandoned her attack on Ruan Dongling.

“Despicable! Shameless! Vile! You scoundrel! I’ll kill you!” Shangguan Yun’er roared, frantically trying to retrieve a fresh set of clothes from her Storage Pouch.

But before she could move, a fiery red sword pressed against her neck.

Ruan Dongling grinned mischievously, peeking out from behind Shangguan Yun’er.

“I wasn’t lying, they really are big… I just don’t know if they’re pale enough. Let me take a peek…”

As she spoke, Ruan Dongling strained to peer inside Shangguan Yun’er’s open robes.

Shangguan Yun’er tried to strike Ruan Dongling, but the Crimson Cloud Sword pressed tighter against her neck, freezing her in place.

“Eat this!” Ruan Dongling produced a Medicinal Pill and shoved it into Shangguan Yun’er’s mouth.

Having never suffered such humiliation before, Shangguan Yun’er wept openly, clamping her lips shut in refusal.

Ruan Dongling pinched Shangguan Yun’er’s cheeks and forced the Medicinal Pill into her mouth.

“Eat it! If you don’t, you’ll die!”
