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

Chapter 28

Night had fallen.

Jiang Chen returned to his residence after wandering around Ninth Peak for a while.

Sitting at the wooden table, he propped his head with his left hand and with a gentle flip of his right hand, a pale pink pill appeared in his palm.

This pill was the reward he had just received, the Heart-Devouring Soul-Bewitching Pill!

This pill was a poison and of perfect quality. If a cultivator were to ingest it, regardless of gender, they would lose all sense of reason and attack any member of the opposite sex in sight like a wild beast.

The so-called attack was not about fighting and killing but rather the kind between men and women.

After ingestion, the Heart-Devouring Soul-Bewitching Pill would dissolve quickly and merge with the cultivator’s flesh and blood, so even if a cultivator of the upper four realms were to investigate, they would not detect anything unusual, only able to make baseless guesses.

With such properties, the Heart-Devouring Soul-Bewitching Pill was definitely the best poison pill for harming others undetected, and its grade was also high, at the seventh grade!

Seventh grade pills, throughout the entire Central Domain, could only be refined by the Ancient Pill Tower, and even then, only of lower quality.

Not only was the effect of the perfect quality stronger, affecting both genders and not distinguishing between humans and animals, but it would also completely devour the cultivator’s mind, irreversible!

Even after the effects of the pill had completely dissipated, the cultivator who took it would become a complete fool with no sense of reason!

And as for the lower quality Heart-Devouring Soul-Bewitching Pill, Jiang Chen had taken it before, more than once.

The person who went to great lengths to deceive him into eating was none other than Ma Wu from Elixir Peak.

Throughout nine cycles of reincarnation, Jiang Chen lost his sanity in many lives. He attacked his own Third Junior Sister Qingning, only to be caught in the act at critical moments.

All of this was thanks to Ma Wu!

Due to the special concealment properties of the Heart-Devouring Soul-Bewitching Pill, coupled with Jiang Chen’s notorious reputation, no one believed him no matter how he explained it!

Ironically, Ma Wu used various means to harm Jiang Chen, all under the guise of ‘justice’. In his eyes, doing evil to the wicked was just a way to defend justice.

“I can’t sleep until Ma Wu is dead.”

Jiang Chen murmured softly with his eyes half-closed.

This man must die!

Destroying the Ma family was just to prevent Ma Wu from dying too easily!

As for how to kill Ma Wu, Jiang Chen already had several plans in mind.

But alas, after learning of the massacre of his family, Ma Wu had been in a coma, only waking up today.

Moreover, the Hall of Enforcement had been lingering around Elixir Peak, guarding against any hidden move.

Of course, if Jiang Chen disregarded everything and used the power of the Jiang Family, he could still kill Ma Wu.

But that would lead to great trouble.

At the very least, he would be expelled from the sect!

At this time, Lin Feng had not yet joined the sect, but what if the villain Eldest Senior Brother of the Jiuyan Sect was already gone?

The consequences would be unpredictable.

Although the plot could be changed, this was not just a change but a plot collapse!

If the plot collapsed, Jiang Chen would lose his advantage by being unable to predict future events.

In severe cases, it might even affect the ending and lead to mission failure.

Therefore, he had to follow the plot.

That’s also why he was waiting!

Waiting for an opportunity that wouldn’t cause the plot to collapse yet would allow him to kill Ma Wu in a short time.

“Knock, knock—”

In the midst of his thoughts, there was a knock on the door.

Then, a faint male voice said, “Eldest Senior Brother, something has happened at Elixir Peak.”

Hearing this, Jiang Chen got up and quickly opened the door.

Without needing to ask, the man outside with a sharp chin and monkey cheeks reported.

“Eldest Senior Brother, that madman Lin Mubai has gone to Elixir Peak and attacked Ma Wu!”

This person named Liu Wu was one of Jiang Chen’s underlings.

Due to his good agility, he was usually responsible for gathering information and monitoring the movements at Elixir Peak.

“Is Ma Wu dead?” Jiang Chen asked urgently.

“He’s not dead, but he lost an arm,” Liu Wu said with schadenfreude.

“Right now, the Peak Master and the people from the Hall of Enforcement are taking Lin Mubai to see the Sect Master! It looks like they’re going to severely punish him.”

That’s good! That’s good! Jiang Chen breathed a sigh of relief.

Ma Wu must die, and he must die by his hand.

If that madman Lin Mubai killed him, where would he vent the hatred in his heart?

As for Lin Mubai being severely punished?

Jiang Chen didn’t believe it for a second.

Although Lin Mubai was mad, he was still an Innate Dao Bone and had always had a good reputation.

On one side was an Elixir Peak elder, and on the other, a sect genius who was temporarily insane.

Without even thinking about it, anyone could tell that without a real murder, the sect would at most give a verbal warning and instruct Xiao Hongyi to keep a close watch on Lin Mubai.

After all, only Jiang Chen, the villain, would be so harshly criticized by the sect.

Wait?

Jiang Chen’s eyes suddenly lit up, and he asked, “Are you sure the people from the Hall of Enforcement have left?”

“Uh, not all of them, but only a few disciples from the Hall of Enforcement are left, with cultivation levels no higher than Core Formation Initial Stage, and their vigilance has decreased a lot.” Liu Wu confirmed.

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen immediately smiled.

He was just wondering when the opportunity would arise.

And now, hasn’t it come?

…….

Inside the Elder’s room at Elixir Peak.

Ma Wu lay on the bed, his complexion pale and his gaze dull.

The massacre of the Ma family was still vivid in his mind.

He had just awakened from a coma, only to find that he had lost an arm!

The events of just a moment ago are clear in his memory, and every time Ma Wu thinks about it, he feels a wave of fear.

That final strike from Lin Mubai—if Li Fadu hadn’t desperately intervened, what would have been lost wouldn’t have been an arm, but his head…

“Damn it! It must be Jiang Chen’s doing! Lin Mubai and I had a good relationship, so how could this happen so inexplicably? It must be Jiang Chen taking advantage of his madness to bewitch him!”

Ma Wu growled in anger.

It was clearly Lin Mubai who had chopped off his hand, yet he blamed Jiang Chen.

Such behavior seemed so natural to him.

Thinking of Jiang Chen, Ma Wu’s expression turned extremely dark.

He had originally thought that a disciple like Jiang Chen, with such despicable conduct, should be stripped of his cultivation and expelled from the sect, but now he had changed his mind.

“He must die! Jiang Chen is a scourge upon the world, a malignant tumor within the sect! If this man does not die, he will harm countless others! Even if I have to commit evil deeds and bear a bad name, I must kill him!”

“The Jiang Family must also be eradicated! A family that can raise such a scourge must also harbor malicious intentions!”

“Xiao Hongyi is kind-hearted and cannot see the true nature of her eldest disciple, so I will help her!”

“Yes! Poisonous pills!”

“I can make a trip to the Ancient Pill Tower and request a Heart-Devouring Soul-Bewitching Pilll! This pill is extremely covert and will surely expose Jiang Chen’s true nature to everyone!”

“The Jiang Family may be strong, but they are not invincible. Even a millennium-old family can be exterminated when the Imperial Dynasty is enraged!”

As he spoke, Ma Wu laughed.

He already had a detailed plan in his mind, and if the plan succeeded, none of this would be difficult.

Then, he thought of Jiang Lianyue and Lin Mubai.

Both were prodigies of the sect, yet they had fallen into madness one after another, both wanting to kill him.

“Could it be that their madness is also Jiang Chen’s doing? Yes, it must be! Otherwise, why would they act this way to me when we have no grudges?”

Ma Wu nodded continuously, his expression suddenly brightening.

Although there was no evidence, all clues pointed to Jiang Chen—who else could it be?

Just as Ma Wu was thinking about how to expose Jiang Chen’s actions and save the two sect prodigies.

“Master, it’s time for your medicine.”

A young boy with his head bowed entered, holding a bowl of medicine.

“What medicine is it?”

Ma Wu asked.

“It’s just ordinary nourishing medicine. In addition to that, your disciple has also crushed some blood-replenishing pills and mixed them in. You are currently in a weak condition, Master, and directly swallowing the pills requires the use of vital energy to activate them. Crushing the pills can save a lot of vital energy.”

The young disciple added.

“Hmm.”

Ma Wu responded lightly, feeling that there was nothing wrong.

The fact that he could think things through so carefully also proved that he had indeed taken on a good disciple.

Without hesitation, he took the medicine bowl with his remaining left hand and drank it all in one gulp.

Throughout the entire ordeal, Ma Wu remained oblivious.

The pale and terrified face of his young apprentice went completely unnoticed.
