Transmigrating as a Crazy Villainess, She Becomes Invincible by Slacking Off - Chapter 6

Qi Sichen held Yun Yan’er tightly in his arms, cradling her against his chest, his face filled with tender affection.

But when he turned to look at Ruan Dongling, his expression twisted into loathing and venom.

Ruan Dongling found this amusing. She hadn’t realized someone could switch between such dramatically different expressions so seamlessly.

“Bravo! Bravo! Bravo! Truly touching!” Ruan Dongling clapped sarcastically.

“Since you two are so deeply in love, I’ll grant you your wish!”

She retrieved the marriage contract, which her original self had carefully preserved, from her Storage Pouch.

“This contract contains the sacred oaths we swore before the Heavenly Dao. Violating these oaths without just cause will incur divine retribution.”

“Today, let us sever this ill-fated bond. From this moment forward, you and I shall have no further connection!”

Marriage contracts among cultivators weren’t mere pieces of paper like those in the mortal realm. They were imbued with oaths sworn before the Heavenly Dao. Violating these oaths without just cause would result in death by heavenly lightning.

This was why Ruan Dongling had gone to such lengths. Otherwise, tearing up a simple piece of paper would have sufficed.

With two fingers pointed skyward, Ruan Dongling declared, “Today, I, Ruan Dongling, voluntarily dissolve my marriage contract with Qi Sichen!”

Seeing this, Qi Sichen suddenly felt a surge of panic.

He had expected Ruan Dongling to cry and plead, to soften and beg him…

But he never imagined she would be so direct, so resolute, so… decisive!

For the first time, Qi Sichen hesitated.

Yun Yan’er began to push him away.

“Senior Brother! A marriage contract is the most important thing for a woman…”

“You can’t… you can’t betray Xiao Qi…”

Wiping away her tears, Yun Yan’er tried to break free from Qi Sichen’s embrace.

Qi Sichen’s momentary hesitation vanished. He immediately raised two fingers to the sky and declared,

“Today, I, Qi Sichen, voluntarily dissolve my marriage contract with Ruan Dongling!”

As their words fell silent, the marriage contract in Ruan Dongling’s hand spontaneously burst into flames.

In the blink of an eye, the contract had turned to ashes.

Ruan Dongling’s heart clenched. The oppressive, painful emotion made her uneasy.

She knew this was the power of the Heavenly Dao.

She was defying fate.

She was altering the predetermined destinies of these characters.

At the exact moment the marriage contract vanished, Qi Sichen felt something of immense importance slip away from him.

Ruan Dongling clapped her hands. “Alright, since the marriage contract is dissolved, we have nothing to do with each other anymore!”

She glanced at the four men, their expressions varying, and pointed at Qi Sichen and Yun Yan’er, who were embracing. “You all see clearly? They are the real couple, the divinely ordained OTP! Don’t bother trying to join the party!”

That b1tch!

Yun Yan’er had been secretly rejoicing over Qi Sichen’s annulled engagement. But Ruan Dongling’s words made her hate the woman to her core.

“Xiao Qi, what… what are you saying? We seven are supposed to support, respect, and love each other like siblings…”

“Senior Brothers and Junior Brothers, you don’t harbor such impure thoughts, do you? We’re just like brothers and sisters!”

The men’s stiff expressions softened considerably at these words.

Right, we’re just siblings!

Ruan Dongling couldn’t be bothered to argue with Yun Yan’er. After all, without Qi Sichen—that Dog Man—Yun Yan’er was her personal treasure trove!

Men truly do hinder my blade… ah, no! They slow down my progress toward becoming stronger!

Ruan Dongling looked at Qi Sichen and extended her hand.

“Give it back!”

Qi Sichen’s expression darkened, and he snapped angrily, “What more do you want?”

“Don’t play dumb with me! Cough up all the cultivation resources I’ve given you over the years!”

“I used to prioritize you because you were my fiancé, but now…”

“What are you to me now?!”

“Don’t even think about weaseling out of this debt. All the senior and junior brothers are watching, and they all know how reluctant you were to accept my resources.”

“Since you were so reluctant, you must still have everything. Now, give it back!”

Ruan Dongling’s words caused Qi Sichen and Yun Yan’er’s faces to pale.

Qi Sichen had always disdained the gifts Ruan Dongling offered, but he certainly hadn’t thrown away those valuable resources.

Many of them he had given to Yun Yan’er.

Otherwise, how could Yun Yan’er, an orphaned mortal girl, have cultivated to the eighth layer of Qi Refining in just two years?

Cultivation is a battle against the heavens.

It requires not only talent but, more importantly, vast quantities of cultivation resources!

Even with mediocre talent, one could reach Foundation Establishment through sheer accumulation of resources.

Without resources, unless one possessed extraordinary talent—the kind of peerless prodigy who could absorb spiritual energy while eating and sleeping—progress would be impossible.

For others, achieving Foundation Establishment was an arduous task.

Reaching the Golden Core or Nascent Soul realms was even more daunting!

Seeing Qi Sichen’s expression darken, Ruan Dongling’s face also changed.

“Qi Sichen, you’re a grown man. Are you trying to weasel out of your debt?”

“You acted so reluctant when you accepted the gifts, but you didn’t hesitate to use them, did you?”

“Have you no shame left?”

“Ruan Dongling! Don’t push your luck!” Qi Sichen’s face flushed crimson. He had never imagined Ruan Dongling would demand the return of those rare treasures.

Qi Sichen emptied his Storage Pouch, revealing its contents: a dozen spiritual herbs, seven or eight bottles of elixirs, three or four Magic Artifacts of varying grades, and a large pouch of Spirit Stones.

Ruan Dongling glanced at the items and scoffed derisively. “Is that all? What about the rest?”

As she spoke, her gaze deliberately drifted toward Yun Yan’er.

Yun Yan’er instinctively hid behind Qi Sichen, her face flushed crimson.

“List everything you owe me,” Qi Sichen said, his voice strained. “I’ll return it all within a month!”

He had no choice. He couldn’t admit he had given everything to Yun Yan’er.

At this moment, Ruan Dongling couldn’t help but admire Qi Sichen. He truly cared for Yun Yan’er.

“Qi Sichen, I remember giving you a crimson crystal dagger…”

“Oh, wait, that’s not right. This dagger was the only thing you ever asked me for.”

“It’s not like you can eat or drink it. Even if you gave it away, you could always get it back, right?”

“You don’t need to return the other pills and spiritual herbs right away, but this dagger—you must return it!”

“This dagger is my Lifebound Magical Treasure, which I’ve been refining since birth…”

“Only someone as brazen as you could ever coax my Lifebound Magical Treasure from me…” Ruan Dongling lowered her head and chuckled self-deprecatingly.

“But I’ve retained a sliver of connection to it. No one but me can wield it.”

“Forcibly refining it would likely damage your very foundation!”

Exhausted from speaking so much, Ruan Dongling slumped back into her chair.

Apart from Qi Sichen and Yun Yan’er, the others were astonished by Ruan Dongling’s words.

They never imagined she would sacrifice her Lifebound Magical Treasure for Qi Sichen.

Yun Yan’er stiffened at her words.
