After Defying the Villain’s Fate for Nine Lifetimes, the Heroines Turn Mad!

As the system’s voice fell, a surge of air burst from Jiang Chen’s body, blowing Zhang Hu and Lin Mubai into disarray.

Both couldn’t help but feel emotional.

As expected of the Eldest Senior Brother!

He regards the lives of others as nothing, able to break through even upon someone’s death!

So ruthless and inhumane!

On the other hand, Jiang Chen was speechless as he stared at Lu Renjia’s corpse.

Another one has committed suicide…

He just couldn’t understand. Why do these so-called righteous people love to commit suicide when they can’t beat him?

He had originally planned to keep this person around, to beat him up whenever he felt like it.

“Can we burn him instead?” Zhang Hu scratched his head awkwardly.

“Burying people is something that Third Senior Sister is more experienced in.”

Jiang Chen agreed wholeheartedly.

He decided that next time he went out, he would bring Qingning along.

At least she knew how to bury people, unlike Lin Mubai, who only knew how to chop people up.

The reason he brought Lin Mubai was to have him attract powerful enemies for himself, but instead of attracting any, he ended up scaring one to death.

Soon, a greenish pill flame emerged from Zhang Hu’s fingertips, incinerating Lu Renjia’s corpse.

This pill flame was the sixth-grade Mystic Azure Flame.

The previous owner of this Mystic Azure Flame was the former number one true disciple of the Ancient Pill Tower, Xiao Shan.

After poisoning Xiao Shan, Zhang Hu had intended to offer the Mystic Azure Flame as a token of allegiance to Jiang Chen as a gift.

But who would have thought that Jiang Chen didn’t care for it at all.

Although he still accepted Zhang Hu, he told Zhang Hu to keep the Mystic Azure Flame for his own use.

Zhang Hu was so moved. To think that a congenital pill flame of such caliber, which countless pill refiner masters dream of, was left to him by Jiang Chen!

And not just that. Ever since becoming Jiang Chen’s underling, Zhang Hu felt his luck had turned.

The lunatics on Ninth Peak no longer bullied him. The disciples from the other peaks were also very friendly towards him.

Even Xiao Hongyi reduced the number of times she sent him out to search for poisons.

This made Zhang Hu even more determined to cling to Jiang Chen’s coattails.

He knew he had no special talents, and even with a pill flame, he couldn’t refine pills, but besides refining pills, the flame could also be used to burn people. �

Although the Mystic Azure Flame was only sixth-grade, it was famously fierce.

Therefore, Zhang Hu practiced controlling the pill flame every day, and now his control was as smooth as flowing water.

Under his precise and delicate manipulation, Lu Renjia’s corpse was quickly reduced to ashes, which were then scattered by the breeze.

“Eldest Senior Brother, how’s my skill in destroying corpses and erasing traces?” Zhang Hu asked expectantly.

“…You have talent.” Jiang Chen replied.

Zhang Hu was overjoyed.

Seeing Lin Mubai frown, he exercised his boot-licking skills and said, “Thanks to Eldest Senior Brother’s high regard, but compared to Second Senior Brother, I can only be considered a minor talent.”

This pleased Lin Mubai.

If Zhang Hu were to compete with him for the position of Jiang Chen’s ‘right-hand man’, this madman would have to resort to violence.

“Zhang Hu, I misjudged you,” Lin Mubai patted Zhang Hu’s shoulder and said sincerely.

“I never imagined you’d have a day of being mad…”

Zhang Hu was confused.

Mad? He wasn’t mad! He had simply had an epiphany and embarked on an evil path.

This wasn’t madness. It was living true to his heart!

“Stop the chatter, let’s set off!” Jiang Chen suddenly said.

This time he had no specific destination in mind.

He planned to wander around and rack up a bunch of system rewards before going to ‘console’ Lin Feng at the Ancient Pill Tower.

Completing the mission was just an excuse.

Of course, there was nothing wrong with him going out without accepting a mission.

But what if those crazies from the Jiuyan Sect thought he was defecting and followed him?

It’s better to be safe.

The group set off again.

Since they were close to the Jiuyan Sect, which currently had a bad reputation, they didn’t encounter any other cultivators along the way.

But as they walked, Jiang Chen’s pupils suddenly contracted.

Beside a large tree ahead, an old man was floating cross-legged, and on the branches of the tree lay a three-tailed white fox that seemed to be sleeping.

“Young Master.”

Chen Sheng smiled kindly and stepped forward to greet him.

“Old Chen, haven’t I told you many times? You watched me grow up, so there’s no need for such formalities between us,” Jiang Chen quickly helped him up.

Hearing this, Chen Sheng’s smile grew even wider.

Seeing Jiang Chen’s gaze fixed on the little fox, he explained, “I caught this white fox in the Hengduan Mountain Range. It has been in a deep sleep for over a month and hasn’t woken up yet.”

He didn’t reveal the reason for capturing the little fox.

The reason was simple.

The little fox had run out of the Hengduan Mountain Range in search of Jiang Chen. And since the Nine Heavens Mystic Fox could charm all beings, Chen Sheng didn’t want Jiang Chen to get involved with it.

Jiang Chen didn’t probe further.

After all, the plot had completely collapsed, and getting too entangled would only add to his troubles.

“Return it as soon as possible, or it will cause a lot of trouble,” Jiang Chen still warned.

“Trouble?” Chen Sheng’s eyes narrowed slightly.

With his cultivation level, if Jiang Chen mentioned trouble, it meant the fox was indeed troublesome.

“Don’t hurt it,” Jiang Chen added.

“…Alright.”

After a moment’s hesitation, Chen Sheng agreed.

His original intention was to turn the little fox into a puppet and give it to Jiang Chen as a maid. But since Jiang Chen didn’t want it, he naturally wouldn’t insist.

Others who were also watching the little fox included Lin Mubai and Xiao Hongyi in the sky above.

Both remained silent, just sighing softly.

Jiang Chen was about to leave.

But after thinking it over, he leaped onto the ancient tree, stroked the little fox’s head, and whispered, “Little fox, we meet again.”

The only response was the steady breathing of the little fox.

“In this life, you can take the surname Bai,” Jiang Chen added.

“Umm…”

The little fox frowned, mumbling in its sleep.

Worried about waking it up, Jiang Chen leaped down from the tree and left with Lin Mubai and the others.

Xiao Hongyi stayed behind.

She floated in front of the little fox, her eyes swirling with murderous intent.

“Young Master said not to harm it,” Chen Sheng said coldly.

Xiao Hongyi did not respond.

“The Young Master’s orders are absolute. Girl, leave quickly!”

Chen Sheng began to threaten, “Even if you have the innate phoenix body, you won’t last three rounds in my hands!”

“Hmph!”

Xiao Hongyi snorted coldly, not denying it.

“What if one day it harms Jiang Chen?” she countered.

“As long as I’m alive, that day will never come!” Chen Sheng replied instantly.

Xiao Hongyi fell silent again, sighing deeply.

She didn’t doubt Chen Sheng’s words.

Because in the nine cycles of reincarnation, Chen Sheng indeed fulfilled his duty as a protector, the only pity being that he died on the day the Jiang family was annihilated.

“Take care.”

With those words, Xiao Hongyi drifted away.

Watching her leave, Chen Sheng shook his head.

The Xiao Hongyi of the past would always scold him upon seeing him, but this time she wished him well?

“It’s still the Young Master who’s awesome. Even his own master can be driven mad,” Chen Sheng said with satisfaction.

And shortly after Jiang Chen and the others left, the little fox on the tree woke up from its slumber.

It rubbed its fluffy sleepy eyes with its front paws and murmured, “What’s that smell, it stinks…”

Chen Sheng shook his head again and closed his eyes, sitting cross-legged.

He had always known that the memories of the Mystic Fox Clan in their three-tailed state were extremely unstable.

In his view, after sleeping for more than a month, the little fox should have forgotten him and forgotten Jiang Chen.

“Old man, who are you?” the little fox asked while looking at Chen Sheng.

“Indeed, a fox that specializes in breaking hearts,” Chen Sheng scoffed.

“Old man, do you know someone named Jiang Chen?” the little fox asked again.

“…”
