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

Chapter 63



Chapter 63

Jiang Chen’s entrance into the city had caused quite a stir, and the surrounding cultivators had already memorized his appearance.

Even though he had no followers at the moment, cultivators would still avoid him wherever he went, tacitly making way while cursing him in their hearts.

Half an hour later, Jiang Chen’s nose twitched, and he smelled the fragrance of pills.

Following the direction of the fragrance, he eventually stopped in front of a store.

“Pill Pavilion…”

Looking at the hanging signboard, Jiang Chen’s eyes turned cold.

This was a store set up by the Ancient Pill Tower in Lingshan Town! In the original story, Ma Wu and Lin Feng masterminded the downfall of the Jiang family, with the Ancient Pill Tower as their accomplice.

Ma Wu had deep connections with the Ancient Pill Tower.

This detail was vague in the original story, and it was only after experiencing the first cycle of reincarnation that Jiang Chen came to know of it.

It turned out that because Ma Wu was ‘upright’ and ‘hated evil’, he hit it off with the Great Elder of the Ancient Pill Tower (birds of a feather flock together), and they became sworn brothers!

These two “upholders of justice” went to extreme lengths against Jiang Chen.

Under the guise of righteousness, Ma Wu tried everything to drive Jiang Chen out of the Jiuyan Sect.

In the end, he succeeded due to various coincidences and efforts.

But he also died.

He died on the very day Jiang Chen was expelled from the sect!

Upon learning of this, Lin Feng and the Great Elder of the Ancient Pill Tower were extremely angry and began to implement the plan Ma Wu had already set before his death, waiting only for the fall of the Jiang family patriarch to personally report to the Imperial Dynasty!

The image of ten thousand golden cavalry descending from the sky was still fresh in Jiang Chen’s memory.

In the nine cycles of reincarnation, even if he wanted to be an upright Eldest Senior Brother and take out Ma Wu ahead of time, which he did manage to do successfully, the outcome could not be changed.

Whether or not someone reported it, his expulsion from the Jiuyan Sect was secondary. Once the Jiang family patriarch fell, the ten thousand golden cavalry would descend from the sky!

In the end, Ma Wu was just a pawn.

From beginning to end, the blade hanging over the Jiang family’s head was always the Imperial Dynasty! And the Imperial Dynasty, naturally, paid close attention to the Jiang family’s movements!

In this life, even if Jiang Chen let things slightly change, he wouldn’t let the Jiang family come to harm.

With the help of the system, he could break through the suppression of this world on himself.

Even if his strength was not up to par, he could keep the pillar of the Jiang family standing if he could obtain some pills through the system that could heal hidden injuries and extend his lifespan, thus making the Imperial Dynasty hesitate to act rashly!

Jiang Chen slowly exhaled.

He would eventually visit the Imperial Dynasty, and before ascending, he would definitely show that high and mighty woman who proclaimed herself the Empress what cruelty really is!

Looking at the Pill Pavilion, he was somewhat surprised.

Given the concentration of cultivators in Lingshan Town, the Pill Pavilion should be welcoming guests at the door, but today…

The Pill Pavilion was deserted, with the door slightly ajar and a ‘closed’ sign hanging high!

‘Could it be that they heard I was coming and decided to avoid the limelight?’ he wondered.

But he quickly dismissed this thought.

After all, whether it was the plot in the original story or the nine cycles of reincarnation, whenever Lin Feng made an appearance, he would be in Lingshan Town, but the Pill Pavilion had never closed its doors to guests.

Just as Jiang Chen was about to go in and smash things up without care, he saw several cultivators dressed in pill refiner’s robes of the Ancient Pill Tower approaching from afar.

The leader was a young man with a cultivation at the Human Origin realm, and judging by the six golden patterns on the cuff of his pill refiner’s robes, he should be a sixth-grade pill refiner master.

To become a sixth-grade pill refiner master at such a young age, one didn’t need to think to know that he must be a true disciple of the Ancient Pill Tower.

The young man, accompanied by three fellow disciples, all at the Core Formation realm, was taken aback upon seeing Jiang Chen at the door, then ignored him and continued towards the Pill Pavilion.

“What’s with the big scene? What happened to this Pill Pavilion?” Jiang Chen asked curiously while blocking his way.

The young man did not reply but only darkened his expression and continued to pretend not to hear.

“Eldest Senior Brother is talking to you,” Qingning frowned.

Hearing this, the young man’s expression brightened, and he smiled, “I don’t care about this Eldest Senior Brother, but since a beauty is asking, I’ll reveal some information…”

He paused, then continued with a serious face, “In this Pill Pavilion, we had a Human Origin realm elder and more than a dozen cultivators of the lower four realms. All of them died within a few days.”

“Brilliant! Who was the hero who did it?” Jiang Chen praised enthusiastically, delighted.

He had no good feelings towards the Ancient Pill Tower, and the death of some of them only made him feel thrilled.

“How did they die? Was it gruesome? Tell me the details, there’s a reward for it!” he added.

The corner of the young man’s mouth twitched, but he still did not reply.

“My Eldest Senior Brother is asking you to elaborate,” Qingning urged.

“Normally, this matter should not be shared with others, but the Jiuyan Sect and the Ancient Pill Tower have a good relationship, so you’re not outsiders.”

After a moment of thought, the young man spoke with a hint of fear, “The message I received is that the disciples of our sect in the Pill Pavilion started disappearing one after another. It was only after the Lingshan Town’s master sent people to search for several days that they discovered they had all been buried alive!”

Buried alive?

Jiang Chen was taken aback.

This method of death was not only gruesome but also bizarre for cultivators!

After all, to bury a cultivator alive, one would at least have to seriously injure them first and seal or destroy their cultivation.

With that much effort, why not just kill them directly?

Killing someone and then digging a grave for them, one had to wonder if the murderer had a problem with their brain.

Even if they wanted to torture, there were simpler ways to do so.

“Sister Qingning, I suspect that the person who could commit such an atrocity must be from the demonic path! It might even be a madman! You must be very careful, as those from the demonic path love to ruthlessly destroy beauty! If you are afraid, you can come to me anytime, and I will protect you,” the young man added.

“Do you know me?” Qingning blinked.

“Of course.”

The young man’s cheeks reddened, “I’ve been to the Jiuyan Sect before…”

Qingning nodded and then ignored him.

The young man glanced at Jiang Chen out of the corner of his eye, seeming to want to say something, but in the end, he just shook his head and walked away.

But he had only taken one step when Jiang Chen raised his hand to stop him.

“Jiang Chen, don’t go too far! I’ve tolerated you for a while now!” the young man exclaimed angrily.

“I just thought carefully and realized that I can’t remember your name at all, not even any memories about your face. Do you know what this means?” Jiang Chen asked.

“What does it mean?” the young man frowned.

“It means…”

Before he could finish, Jiang Chen’s eyes suddenly turned cold!

A light flashed in his right hand, and with the speed of lightning, he reached out and grabbed the back of the young man’s head.

The young man was shocked and immediately prepared to resist.

But caught off guard and with the inherent lack of combat prowess of a pill master, he was still a beat too slow.

The powerful force on the back of his head made him lose his balance instantly, and he was lifted into the air, helplessly watching the ground below getting closer and closer.

Then, with a ‘bang’, the young man’s head hit the ground first, and Jiang Chen pressed him into the dirt, creating a deep pit.

Bending down, Jiang Chen grabbed the young man’s hair and lifted his head.

Ignoring the blood seeping from the young man’s forehead, Jiang Chen narrowed his eyes into slits and smiled,

“It means you’re just a piece of trash that doesn’t even deserve to have a name to remember! You’re trash, yet you dare to ignore me?”

Although his head was buzzing, the young man still heard Jiang Chen’s words.

Trash?

He was a true disciple of the Ancient Pill Tower! Even if at the bottom…

Ignore?

Jiang Chen’s infamy was already widespread among the sects of the Central Domain. He knew he couldn’t afford to provoke him.

Should he not ignore him and fawn over him like a dog like the others?

Besides, he had a name! His name was Li Si!

“You are too much!” Li Si raged.

Suddenly, Pill fire burst out from his seven orifices, turning into several fire snakes that instantly wrapped around Jiang Chen’s arm, the intense heat distorting the air around them.

Jiang Chen just sneered, still gripping Li Si’s head with his right hand while his left hand flipped, and a blood sword appeared out of thin air.

He gripped the sword hilt lightly, and vital energy poured into it.

“Roar—!”

The Flame Blood Dragon Sword let out a dragon’s cry, dizzying to the ears.

Under its influence, the pill fire that formed the fire snakes shrank back into the young man’s body as if encountering a natural enemy!

“A superior-grade spiritual sword?!” Li Si exclaimed in shock.

Jiang Chen remained silent, swinging the spiritual sword in his hand, and with a flash of red light, he instantly severed Li Si’s right palm!

The Sword Qi that followed also carved a deep trench in the ground!

“Ahhh!!”

Li Si screamed in agony, his voice echoing all around.

“Daring to cozy up to my Junior Sister right in front of me? I admire your courage.”

Letting go and patting Li Si’s shoulder, Jiang Chen stood up and said,

“I wanted to gouge out your eyes and cut off your tongue, but I thought it was too dirty to do it myself. You should feel lucky that my little brother isn’t here, so you only lost a hand. How should I put it…”

“…consider yourself lucky today!”
