Chapter 8: Mu Qingxue's Little Secret

【Child of Luck Ye Feng's Luck points have decreased by 5000. Host rewarded with +5000 Villain Points.】

【Child of Luck Ye Feng is now at odds with the Host. Host rewarded with +10000 Villain Points.】

"Not bad, not bad. Fifteen thousand Villain Points in one go—this is the largest income I've received so far. It was worth setting the stage for him."

With the large sum of Villain Points accounted for, Qin Xuan was very satisfied.

Back in the Qin Family, due to his predecessor's spineless personality, a perfectly good situation had been played into a losing hand.

He had no choice but to gouge out his bone and sever ties with his Family to save his own life.

But now that he had already left the Qin Domain,

As a major villain, could he still be bullied by a Child of Luck?

A mere Ye Feng at the Peak of the Unity Realm—by what right could he act so arrogantly in front of him?

Does he have a father in the Saint King Realm?

No? Then he deserves a beating!

"It's a pity that Grandfather has entered the Sacred Forbidden Land and likely won't be back for a while. Otherwise, with a Saint-level grandfather as my backing, I wouldn't need to rely on Mu Qingxue's influence, even within the Yaochi Sacred Land."

Qin Xuan sighed softly.

Even though he had forcibly taken down Ye Feng just now, this kind of Child of Luck was like a cockroach that couldn't be killed; he definitely had more cards up his sleeve.

He had to leverage Mu Qingxue's influence to have the ability to turn danger into safety.

There was no helping it; who told him to sever ties with the Qin Family and lose his backing?

Walking along the quiet, fragrant path, Qin Xuan looked at the herb gardens planted with Heaven And Earth Treasure on both sides, calculating how he could take down Mu Qingxue as soon as possible.

If he didn't get closer to Mu Qingxue, and having already made an enemy of the Child of Luck Ye Feng,

he feared it would be difficult to gain a firm foothold within the Yaochi Sacred Land.

【Detected a small secret hidden by the Daughter of Luck Mu Qingxue inside Qingxue Pavilion. It concerns Mu Qingxue's life and death. Requires consuming all Villain Points to obtain. Does the Host wish to acquire it?】

There's such a good thing?

It's truly like being handed a pillow just as one gets sleepy.

"Acquire."

Qin Xuan didn't even think about it and agreed immediately.

【In the backyard of Qingxue Pavilion, there is an underground secret chamber protected by an Immaculate Sacred Body barrier. Since the Host possesses the Chaos Hongmeng Body, which is immune to all bodies, you can enter and exit freely. Hidden there is a Demonic Path expert who once saved Mu Qingxue's life.】

"So that's it. Knowing gratitude and repaying kindness, hiding a Demonic Path expert who saved her life, disregarding worldly shackles—this fits Mu Qingxue's personality perfectly!"

A smile played on the corners of Qin Xuan's lips.

Having grasped Mu Qingxue's weakness, he now had another secret that could threaten her very life.

If he couldn't take down Mu Qingxue with this, he might as well just smash himself to death with a brick.

"Young Master, this is Fairy Qingxue's residence. No outsider has ever set foot here. Please stop, Young Master; do not make it difficult for this servant."

At Qingxue Pavilion, Mu Qingxue's residence, a sword-wielding maid blocked Qin Xuan's path, her face full of panic.

Qin Xuan raised his hand, pushing the maid back. He rolled his eyes and said unhappily, "Even your mistress belongs to me. Why shouldn't I be able to enter her residence whenever I want?"

He walked into Mu Qingxue's boudoir as if entering an empty space, smelling a faint, refreshing fragrance in the air that was indescribably soothing.

Sitting on a rosewood chair, Qin Xuan poured himself a cup of tea, crossed his legs, and waited for Mu Qingxue's return with great interest.

...

An hour later, Mu Qingxue, having obtained the Medicinal Pill, left Wan Jian Peak.

Upon hearing everything that had happened in front of Qingxue Pavilion, her exquisite face was filled with rage, and she quickened her pace.

Seeing Xiao Lan, who was timid and hanging her head in front of the boudoir, afraid to look at her, Mu Qingxue's expression turned icy cold.

She took lotus steps across the threshold, and the first thing she saw was Qin Xuan holding her teacup and sipping tea.

In her great rage, her bosom became even more dangerously exaggerated, as if ready to burst forth.

"Who gave you permission to enter!" Mu Qingxue pointed at the teacup in Qin Xuan's hand. Thinking of the cup she used having been touched by Qin Xuan, she felt an indescribable sense of disgust. In extreme anger, she said coldly, "Put down the cup."

Qin Xuan toyed with the teacup in one hand, a smile on his lips and a lewd glint in his eyes as he stared playfully at Mu Qingxue. "Don't forget, you are my fiancée. Even you belong to me; why make such a fuss over using one of your cups?"

Seeing Qin Xuan's current posture, Mu Qingxue realized that on the immortal boat,

she had been played by Qin Xuan.

Her annoyance grew even greater.

"As for the engagement between you and me, I will personally go to the Qin Family to annul it in a few days."

Mu Qingxue took out a Saint Grade Jade Quenching Pill and tossed it toward Qin Xuan. "This is the compensation I give you. The engagement is annulled, and all losses to the Qin Family shall be borne by me, Mu Qingxue, alone."

"Now, immediately, get out! Get out of the Yaochi Sacred Land! I don't want to see you again!"

Qin Xuan chuckled maliciously. "Why has your temper become so big all of a sudden? Is it because you heard I beat up your lover in the Yaochi Sacred Land?"

After a pause, he continued, "I have to say, you, Mu Qingxue, really are a snob. What kind of bullshit Fairy Qingxue? Back when you mistakenly thought your fiancé was Qin Hao, you never mentioned the word 'annulment'. Once you learned the truth, you couldn't wait to rush back from the Yaochi Sacred Land to the Qin Domain to annul the engagement."

"Honestly, I'm a bit confused. In your heart, do you like Ye Feng more, or Qin Hao more? Or perhaps… you like to spread your favors equally?"

Even with Mu Qingxue's good temper, hearing such slander caused killing intent to rise in her heart.

"Filthy language! I must have been blind to believe that you suffered the backlash of losing your Supreme Bone and nearly died!"

How could she, Mu Qingxue, be the kind of dissolute person Qin Xuan described?

She and Qin Hao had only met a few times; due to her youth, she hadn't dared to resist the Family's arrangements.

Even if the fiancé were still Qin Hao, she would have discussed annulling the engagement with the Qin Family, though her attitude would have been more tactful.

As for that Ye Feng, it was even more impossible.

Ye Feng was a Prodigy she had taken a liking to; possessing the Wind-Thunder Saint Body, he was an uncut jade that the Mu Family was investing in.

Introducing him into the Yaochi Sacred Land was merely to build a bond of goodwill for the future.

From beginning to end, she had never considered developing any romantic feelings for Ye Feng.

She could prove it effortlessly, enough to clear her name.

Looking at the Qin Xuan in front of her, the disgust in her heart surged like rolling waves crashing against the sky, constantly gushing out.

Perhaps in the future, she would form a bond with someone or marry as a wife.

But that person would absolutely not be Qin Xuan.

She had no need to explain this to Qin Xuan.

"Get out, get out of here!" Mu Qingxue pointed at the door, her face full of fury. "Leave Qingxue Pavilion immediately! I don't want to see you again!"

"Fine, I'll leave, alright?"

Qin Xuan calmly accepted the Saint Grade Medicinal Pill. As he passed by Mu Qingxue, he stared at that well-endowed, perky bottom, feasting his eyes before leaving Qingxue Pavilion unhurriedly.

"Lecher!" Mu Qingxue gritted her teeth in hatred, wishing she could gouge out Qin Xuan's eyes.

She cast a small technique to repeatedly clean the chair and teacup that Qin Xuan had touched.

Still feeling disgusted, she threw them out the door in disdain and ordered, "Xiao Lan, throw away everything that guy has touched!"

Xiao Lan, who suddenly rushed to the door, pointed to the backyard and warned, "Young Miss, that Qin Xuan has come back again and went to the backyard!"

Mu Qingxue's heart trembled, her beautiful eyes dilated with shock, and killing intent was fully revealed. "He is courting death!"
