Chapter 470: Succubus (41)
The original plot didn't elaborate on her father at all, but it's clear that Chu Hongyan definitely didn't love him, otherwise how could she have dozens or even hundreds of male concubines, and even have the female lead as her father, whom she spoiled rotten?
Chu Hongyan touched Wen Wan's face, her eyes filled with complex emotions, including hatred, but more so something that Wen Wan couldn't discern.
She had already imagined countless scenarios; it seemed that her father and mother must have been extraordinary people back then.
"Come back with me."
Chu Hongyan suddenly said that Wen Wan could not go back with her, but before she could refuse, Chu Hongyan interrupted her, "Either I beat you to death right now and pretend I don't have a daughter like you, or you go back and reflect on your actions in seclusion and think clearly about your identity."
Wen Yan: "..."
It's impossible to kill him.
In the end, Wen Wan was forced to return to the Blissful Sect with Chu Hongyan, where she was soon imprisoned and could not even leave the house except for the maids who served her.
"Sigh, I didn't expect to be in such a bad situation. But it's okay, as long as the female lead doesn't come."
system:【……】
I don't want to talk.
While snacking, Wen Wan muttered to the system, "I wonder if they'll look for me if I suddenly disappear. They definitely will, since I consider myself to be quite popular. And Gu Yuan, is he hoping I'll get lost? Or will he come looking for me too?"
At this point, Wen Wan found it somewhat amusing. "How could that be! He's a Celestial Venerable, the leader of the righteous path. He'd be overjoyed to see me, a demon, leave. How could he possibly come looking for me?"
"Wen Wan, don't overestimate yourself."
System: [Host, perhaps he really will come to save you?]
There was a knock on the door, and a maid came in. "Young Master, Qi Feng requests an audience."
Upon hearing this name, Wen Wan had almost forgotten about this person. She quickly invited him in, since Qi Feng had covered up some things for her back in Mingyuan Sect, otherwise her mother would have slapped her to death.
Although this person is loyal to Chu Hongyan, it's still worthwhile to meet him.
Qi Feng entered and greeted, "Young Master."
Wen Wan: "Get up. What do you need me for?"
Qi Feng: "This cat belongs to the young master at Mingyuan Sect. I discovered it had broken into Jile Sect this morning, so I brought it here."
Wen Wan stared wide-eyed at the familiar cat and quickly picked it up. "Did no one find out?"
Qi Feng: "No, but young master should deal with it as soon as possible and send it out. Otherwise, if it is discovered, the master will be unhappy."
"I understand, thank you, Chiffon."
Qi Feng looked at Wen Wan with a complicated expression, clearly having something to say to her.
"Say what you want to say."
"Will the young master hate his subordinate? Back then, the subordinate did not leave, but opened the Mingyuan Sect's great formation. Although it was on the master's orders, the young master was unwilling to do it, so Qi Feng did it. I only hope that the young master will not hate Qi Feng."
Wen Yan: "..."
“You said it was my mother’s order. Not to mention you, even I couldn’t disobey my mother’s orders. So I don’t hate you, and I won’t hold a grudge against you. You don’t need to worry too much.”
However, she would no longer have any trust in him. After all, having such a person by her side was far too dangerous. She couldn't control someone like Qi Feng; he was too cunning.
"Thank you, young master."
Chiffon left.
Wen Wan looked at the cat in her arms, "Why are you here? Did Immortal Venerable Gu Yuan come too?"
cat:"……"
Wen Wan's gaze at the cat was almost a direct interpretation of what she was thinking, as if to say, "What nonsense are you spouting? Who is Immortal Venerable Gu Yuan? How could he possibly come to a place like the Blissful Sect for a demon like you?"
Wen Wan was somewhat disappointed. "Forget it, it would be strange if he came. You should leave quickly. I'll have someone send you away. It's too dangerous here. If my mother finds out about you, you'll definitely be arrested, although she might not be able to catch you."
However, the cat still refused to leave.
Wen Wan covered for it by using a pill that could disguise itself as demonic energy, and then disguised it as a little demonic cat. Fortunately, Chu Hongyan never came to see her again after that, so nothing was discovered.
The cat arrived at just the right time; she was so bored, and every time she tried to escape, she was caught and brought back. She was practically rotting away.
"Do you and your master have any telepathic connection? Could you ask him to come and save me? I'd rather cultivate immortality every day than stay here."
That's the truth.
Boredom was secondary; that wasn't enough to make Wen Wan unbearable. The important thing was that Chu Hongyan arranged male concubines for her every few days. Wen Wan was numb to it all. She even woke up in the middle of the night to find a man at the foot of her bed.
These terrifying things happened frequently, and Wen Wan felt like she was going crazy.
"If I could get out of here, I would never step out of Mingyuan Sect again; I would just stay here with Mingyuan Sect."
After being locked up for a month, Wen Wan was finally able to leave.
The maid said, "The other demons have arrived one after another, and the young master must also attend."
"What?"
Maid: "The Immortal Slaying Tournament, young master, will begin in three days."
The Immortal Slaying Assembly? The name itself didn't sound like a good event. From the maid's words, Wen Wan understood that the Immortal Slaying Assembly, as the name suggests, was for killing cultivators. After all, many cultivators were captured by the demon race every year, and similarly, many demons were captured by the immortal sects. The immortal sects also had similar events.
"I heard that the person they're going to kill this time is a very important figure," the maid said. Wen Wan asked curiously, "What kind of important figure?"
"Xiaoyao Li".
Wen Wan didn't know this person, but she was very familiar with the name.
After all, he was a celebrity. Before Gu Yuan became famous, Xiaoyao Li was the number one person in the world.
How should I put it?
He was Gu Yuan's predecessor, and he had been missing for hundreds of years. Unexpectedly, he was captured by the demons and was still alive. This is not in line with the character of the demons!
Why kill him? Was he no longer of any use?
The maid shook her head. "I don't know. Besides, this time the whole thing was recorded with a recording stone. It will be distributed to those sects in the cultivation world to dampen their arrogance."
Wen Yan: "..."
That's so perverted.
"Xiaoyao Li is imprisoned in the Blissful Sect? How come I've never heard of that?"
"This servant doesn't know either; these are all confidential matters."
Gu Yuan: "..."
After the maid left, Wen Wan hugged the cat and looked at herself. "Mimi! Does your master know about this? He can't just not save people, can he? Hurry up and go report it."
Wen Wan had always known that since the cat was the embodiment of the male protagonist's soul, the two must be connected.
This is no small matter for me; it's a huge deal! That's Xiaoyao Li. If he's really killed, it would be a huge scandal and a huge blow to the cultivation world.
