Chapter Three: Emerging from Ten Years of Seclusion



At least for the time being, Xiao Yuhan was not worried about Bai Yao, who would become the empress in the future. However, Bai Yao was the female lead after all, and because of the protagonist's halo, she could not be killed, which made him temporarily troubled.

But just as he was struggling with this problem, a sudden inspiration struck him. He thought to himself, "Isn't there a survival rule in all novels and movies? If you can't beat them, join them!"

Moreover, according to the plot, Bai Yao is his disciple. So, if he nurtures Bai Yao well and makes her feel the deep gratitude of her master, will she stop tormenting him? Thinking of this, Xiao Yuhan began to recall the original plot.

The original text states that after Xiao Yuhan brought Bai Yao back to the mountain, he nominally took her in as his personal disciple, but in his heart he actually regarded her as a furnace, waiting for her to awaken her demon god power when she turned twenty so that he could take her into his room and use his unique secret method to dual cultivate and seize the demon god cultivation in Bai Yao's body.

So they never seriously taught her anything, and always treated her like a servant, just waiting for the day she would successfully awaken.

Recalling this plot, Xiao Yuhan still felt a burning hatred. That beastly master was truly inhuman. He clearly had good talent, yet he insisted on using crooked and evil methods to enhance himself.

Fortunately, he, having transmigrated, would not choose to do that. Knowing the ending of the story, Xiao Yuhan immediately began to plan for the future, thinking of trying to build a good relationship with Bai Yao while adhering to the original setting.

Thinking of this, Xiao Yuhan kept shaking his head, thinking that this was no job for a human being. He simply lay down and went to sleep. Anyway, he was going to be confined here for ten years, so he had plenty of time to carefully plan things out.

However, it must be mentioned that Xiao Yuhan has come to like her current identity. After all, she is a cultivator at the seventh level of the Nascent Soul Realm, with abundant physical and spiritual power. It seems that she can change the world with a wave of her hand. This is the only thing worth being thankful for in her tragic transmigration.

During the ten years of seclusion and reflection, in the first few years, my junior sister would often bring me delicious food, but in the later years, it was my disciples who brought me meals.

In the original novel, neither of the two disciples, Li Qianyun and Liu Bishui, were good people. Li Qianyun was a scumbag and Liu Bishui was a scheming woman. When Xiao Yuhan met his two disciples, he couldn't help but sigh that birds of a feather flock together.

With a hypocritical master, a scumbag eldest disciple, and a scheming second disciple, it would be a miracle if the female lead wasn't bullied.

These two entered the sect early, and were only about ten years older than Bai Yao.

In the seventh year, when the eldest disciple, Li Qianyun, came to deliver food, she finally asked the question she had always wanted to ask but dared not: "Master, I heard that the reason you were imprisoned here is because of Junior Sister Bai Yao?"

"Where did you hear that, kid?" Xiao Yuhan asked, puzzled.

Is it true that rumors are circulating throughout the sect that she is your illegitimate daughter?

"Don't talk nonsense, brat. I only took her in because of her tragic background!"

"This disciple doesn't understand. Since we are not related, why was Master punished for ten years because of her?"

Before his disciple, Xiao Yuhan thought for a moment and said, "Disciple, don't ask anymore! The Great Way comes from the heart, and the heart follows goodness. This is the righteous path of humanity, though it is full of vicissitudes."

Xiao Yuhan's appearance of bearing everything alone at this moment seemed somewhat noble, which made his image suddenly become majestic in Li Qianyun's mind.

"Warning! The host has created a character setting different from the original work. One thousand points will be deducted!"

"Go to hell! Why are you deducting points?!" Xiao Yuhan immediately cursed inwardly.

"The host will gain points by acting in accordance with the villain's character, and will lose points by acting in accordance with the hero's character!"

"All I did was show off a little bit, and now I'm getting points deducted for that?"

"The system detected that when he uttered the line 'The vicissitudes of life are the true path of humanity,' his heart was filled with justice. This does not fit the villain's character setting, therefore points are deducted. If you disagree with the point deduction decision, I can submit evidence!" After saying that, the system played the scene from earlier in Xiao Yuhan's mind.

Xiao Yuhan had nothing to say, and simply shook his head. He then bowed, reminding himself that he must adhere to the villain's persona in the future, and then asked, "How many points do I have left?"

"Ten thousand points are your reward for completing the initial chapter of Yongning Village."

"By the way, why do you think my behavior and words don't fit the villain's character?"

"There are no standards; it all depends on the system's intuition!"

"Fuck you! I'm not playing anymore!"

"The divine punishment process is about to begin..."

"No, no, no!" Xiao Yuhan said coldly, thinking that she must find a chance to kill this system in the future!

"Master? Master?" The voice of the eldest disciple, Li Qianyun, brought Xiao Yuhan back to her senses.

"What's wrong?"

"There is something concerning my junior sister. She has reached the age to establish her foundation, so I would like to ask for your opinion first!"

At this moment, Xiao Yuhan, who had just been penalized, wanted to be nicer to the little girl, but the system did not allow him to do anything that was inconsistent with the villain's character. So after careful consideration, he decided to follow the original story for now and find a way to make up for the master-disciple relationship after he got out of the story.

So he said, "She's just a country girl, you don't need to take her too seriously. It's best not to teach her anything real. Do you understand what I mean?"

Li Qianyun, being perceptive, thought that her master must have made this decision because he was unhappy about Bai Yao being confined. She immediately nodded and said, "Master, don't worry, I understand! If you're still unhappy, I can beat that girl up twice a day to vent your anger."

"No need for a beating, let's go back first!"

"Detected that the host is not providing Bai Yao with cultivation resources, which is consistent with the villain setting in the original work. Add 500 points!"

"Holy crap! I lost a thousand points, but only gained five hundred?"

"Both the points added and the points deducted are one thousand, but since the host stopped Li Qianyun from bullying Bai Yao, the system will reduce the reward points!"
