Speak of the devil, and he shall appear.
Niu Chuanchuan's roommates followed him, and the bloodstains along the way led them to the west wing.
With a bang.
The already dilapidated door is now completely broken.
The four rushed into the room and spat on Niu Chuanchuan on the ground.
"Damn it, how dare they run away!"
"Let's find Qing Shuang Peak. It's true that good-for-nothings always end up in the same place. Why don't you go back to Qing Shuang Peak with him?"
Liu Hao grabbed Niu Chuanchuan's hair and looked at Shang Yanting with disdain, "Didn't he ask you for protection? What can you do?"
"Brother Liu Hao, teach Qing Shuang Peak a lesson!"
The other three disciples, led by Liu Hao, showed excitement in their eyes. They were the ones who had said that Jia Xitong was bald and ugly that day.
As for this greeting, Brother Liu Hao...
This finally awakened Jia Xitong's few remaining memories of the original story.
In the original novel, Shang Yanting was assigned to Tianwu Peak after entering Holy Capital Academy. Liu Hao and Zhang Qi were his roommates!
Because the original work was a light erotica, focusing on "romance" while downplaying the main plot, their names were only mentioned briefly. They didn't appear often to begin with, and their presence was weak, so Jia Xitong almost forgot them.
etc!
If Shang Yanting was originally supposed to be roommates with Liu Hao and the others, then Niu Chuanchuan... isn't he just replacing him?!
Jia Xitong looked at Niu Chuanchuan again.
His bare feet were frozen black, his fingers were a bloody mess, and Liu Hao was pulling his hair up so hard that his face was contorted. The once kind, strong, friendly, and honest big man was now thin and terrified.
Jia Xitong suddenly remembered that these disciples were secretly killed by Shang Yanting in the original story.
At the time, she simply thought it was the author's way of depicting the male protagonist's ruthlessness. Now, thinking back, she wondered if the male protagonist in the original story, who was only at the mid-stage of martial arts apprenticeship at that time, had also experienced something similar.
Bang--
Shang Yanting suddenly kicked Liu Hao away, interrupting Jia Xitong's recollection.
At this point, he was no longer a mid-stage Martial Apprentice, nor was he a fish to be slaughtered.
As the strongest among them, Liu Hao was stunned by the kick. His heart throbbed with pain from the powerful attack, and he instantly realized that he was no match for the man.
He's just a disciple of Qing Shuang Peak, yet he's so strong!
Suppressing his surprise, Liu Haoqiang pretended nothing was wrong and stood up from the ground.
The west wing was a remote place, far from his teacher, so if the other party wanted to harm him, they could do so without any scruples. What he had been thinking about just now, he was now worried about what Shang Yanting might do to him.
"Yan Qing, is it? You just wait."
He waved to his three companions beside him, signaling them to leave.
As for Niu Chuanchuan, how long can Shang Yanting protect him? If he's so capable, he should never return to Tianwu Peak.
Inside the room
Only two people and a bear remained.
Niu Chuanchuan was still reeling from the fear he had just experienced and was still deeply shocked by Shang Yanting's kick.
Jia Xitong took out a cotton-padded coat from the things she brought and put it on the poor Niu Niu, and also gave him painkillers.
As Niu Chuanchuan's body gradually warmed up, looking at the strange little beast wearing clothes beside him, all the complex emotions he had been feeling for so long, such as grievances, fear, and discomfort, suddenly poured out like a flood.
The bull shed tears.
The thought that the male protagonist in the original story might also receive the same treatment made Jia Xitong feel sorry for him and took out her small handkerchief to wipe his tears.
"Don't you have hands?"
A cold voice came from behind, and Shang Yanting looked at Niu Chuanchuan expressionlessly.
Niu Chuanchuan quickly took the item from Jia Xitong's hand and didn't dare to move it, waiting for his order, afraid of being kicked out.
Shang Yanting didn't care about his wounds at all, but instead asked him a question, "Did those guys dare to bully me just now?"
Niu Chuanchuan shook his head.
"Why?"
"Because they can't beat you."
Shang Yanting chuckled upon hearing this, "The eight great families have so many good-for-nothings, why don't they bully them?"
How could the disciples of the eight great families be bullied? They have powerful backers, and the rest of the family are too busy currying favor with them.
But I am different from them.
Niu Chuanchuan looked at Shang Yanting in confusion, "Yan, what does this have to do with anything?"
"Liu Hao and his ilk are nothing more than the lowest of the low. They are just four insignificant ants in the academy who band together to seek a sense of superiority from the weak."
Shang Yanting looked at the tears on his face, "Why are you afraid of this kind of person?"
Niu Chuanchuan never imagined that the person he feared most would be described in this way.
But do they possess genius?
Does he possess top-tier cultivation?
Does it have a powerful backer?
None!
If they had any one of these three qualities, they wouldn't have been able to run so fast today.
Niu Chuanchuan's face showed a complicated expression, with a hint of sudden realization and a hint of astonishment—then what about Yan Qing?
He has no powerful connections, but he is exceptionally talented, extremely shrewd, wise beyond his years, and ruthless, which is quite different from his appearance.
Suddenly, Niu Chuanchuan seemed to realize who he should fear most.
He looked at the pill in his hand, knelt on the ground and gave Shang Yanting the most respectful bow, "Student Yan, thank you for saving my life. I, Niu Chuanchuan, am willing to be loyal to you forever!"
Shang Yanting glanced at his injury, a hint of pleasure in his eyes. "A person needs to have their own edges. I hope you can handle this little trouble."
Watching from the side, Jia Xitong felt that the male lead's expression was becoming even more perverted.
Niu Niu was clearly chosen by her to help him become a righteous and noble male protagonist, but now it seems that Niu Niu has been led astray by the male protagonist.
Niu Niu has left, but she's still standing there.
Only after Shang Yanting picked her up did he frown and ask, "What's with that expression?"
You can even read the expressions on a raccoon's face?
Jia Xitong touched her furry face.
Do you think I'm vicious or scary?
He pulled the raccoon away from its face, staring intently at it with cold, dark eyes, as if he wanted to take its life.
Is it malicious?
Compared to Shang Yanting, those four are the truly vicious ones.
Neither Niu Chuanchuan nor the male protagonist in the original work deserve to be treated like this!
She hugged Shang Yanting's large face as he leaned closer, pressing her own fur against him for warmth. "In the system's heart, the host is neither kind nor malicious."
It would be even better if you could be a little gentler in how you help others!
Feeling the soft, furry texture against his face, Shang Yanting calmed down.
The chilling feeling gradually dissipated, and he transformed back into the gentle and refined young man he once was.
He put the raccoon on the bed and walked to the wooden door, which he had finally managed to repair but had been kicked down again. The mountain nights were cold; if it wasn't fixed, he wouldn't be able to sleep tonight.
The person now hunched over repairing wooden doors suddenly doesn't seem to fit the image of a world-destroying demon.
The host is quite different from the original work!
Jia Xitong jumped off the bed and ran outside to the makeshift stove that Shang Yanting had built with stones. "Then I'll make a hot water bottle for the host."
====Present Monologue====
Everyone can call me ruthless, spit on me as cold-blooded, and fear my bloodthirstiness, but you are the only exception!
