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

Chapter 67

Outside Lingshan Town, on a spiritual boat.

Jiang Chen, looking at Qingning who was still lively and innocent-faced, fell into deep thought.

He had been on guard ever since he learned of Qingning’s “true face,” worried that the girl would go crazy and want to bury him alive!

But things were a bit strange.

In the past few days, Qingning’s expressions have been extremely normal, and she no longer engages in burying people alive.

If he hadn’t seen it with his own eyes, he would have found it difficult to associate the girl in front of him with the ‘demon’ from the rumors.

‘Could her madness be intermittent?’

Jiang Chen wondered to himself.

Then, another question surfaced in his mind.

These events were not mentioned in the original story, and they had never occurred in the repeated cycles of the nine reincarnations.

At first, Jiang Chen was just gloating and thought it was their karma, but now he thought there might be a serious problem!

He closed his eyes as he began to ponder carefully.

Could madness really be contagious?

No, that’s not right.

After all, Qingning had been outside the sect recently and had no contact with Jiang Lianyue and Lin Mubai.

He carefully recalled the circumstances before the three of them went mad.

Suddenly. Jiang Chen’s eyes snapped open, realizing a key point!

Before Jiang Lianyue went mad, he had spied on her bathing.

At the time of the incident, Jiang Lianyue was fine, but when he reshaped his Core Formation and saw Jiang Lianyue again at the foot of the Ninth Peak, Jiang Lianyue had gone mad and wanted to blow up the sect!

Before Lin Mubai went mad, he had beaten him so badly that he was bedridden for over a month!

Lin Mubai was fine when he woke up from his coma, but after his ‘cordial’ visit that night, Lin Mubai went mad and burned his precious collection of thousands of books!

Before Qingning went mad, he had tricked her out of her Jade Spirit Grass!

Although Qingning was very sad at that time, she was still fine after leaving the sect.

But after a visit to Lingshan Town, Qingning went mad too that she even learned how to bury people alive!

Everything pointed back to himself!

Although it seemed absurd and unrealistic, an incredible thought gradually surfaced in Jiang Chen’s mind.

Could it be…

“…I’m poisonous?”

Jiang Chen was astonished.

He definitely wouldn’t have thought this way if such a thing had happened in his previous lives.

But he had a system in this life!

What if the system had given him a hidden poisonous buff?

What if wherever he went, people would go mad?

A proper system wouldn’t do such a thing, but his system was notoriously unreliable!

‘System, show yourself! I need an explanation! This is your only chance to regain my trust!’

Jiang Chen called out in his mind.

The response was silence as if the system was playing dead. This made Jiang Chen very irritated.

If it was really as he suspected, then the system was definitely making things harder for him on purpose!

After all, if he really was poisonous, causing madness wherever he went, wouldn’t the plot completely collapse?

What if it affected the ending? How could he ascend as planned?

If he failed the mission and had to repeat the cycle of reincarnation, wouldn’t he be doomed?

Jiang Chen quickly calmed down.

After all, this was just his speculation, and the likelihood was not high.

What if he had misunderstood the system?

The system, after all, was supposed to serve its host.

“Qingning——!”

A sudden shout startled Jiang Chen from his thoughts.

He had just looked up when he saw a white figure flash by, and then a somewhat silly-looking White Tiger appeared on the deck of the spiritual boat.

“Hmph.” Jiang Chen snorted coldly, too lazy to bother.

He knew that the White Tiger in front of him was Qingning’s contracted beast.

According to the original story, this Xiaobai was a bit foolish, the kind that would help count the money after being sold.

Jiang Chen had no fondness for Xiaobai after nine cycles of reincarnation.

Although Xiaobai hadn’t done anything excessive to him, he was always on guard against him!

Every time he saw him, he would bristle and bare his teeth!

The reason was, apart from wanting to prevent him from getting close to Qingning, more importantly, Lin Feng had said:

“Xiaobai, actually Jiang Chen wants to eat you!”

Such a nonsensical lie and Xiaobai really believed it!

“Qingning, something big has happened!” Xiaobai said in panic upon arrival.

Before Qingning could respond, Jiang Chen retorted, “Hmph, foolish tiger.”

“What did you say?” Xiaobai turned its head, eyes flashing fiercely.

“I said, a certain foolish tiger will one day be foolish to death!” Jiang Chen was not intimidated.

“Qingning, can I eat him?” Xiaobai inquired.

“No, he is my Eldest Senior Brother,” Qingning replied.

Eldest Senior Brother?

The one who is going to help me defy the heavens?

Xiaobai was shocked!

He had heard Qingning speak ill of Jiang Chen and had no good feelings towards him. But women are fickle!

Therefore, he didn’t know whether Qingning’s words were sincere or just said out of anger due to a quarrel with Jiang Chen.

But one thing Xiaobai was certain of!

Qingning came to find Jiang Chen because she wanted to help him defy the heavens!

In other words, Jiang Chen was his benefactor!

The next second, Xiaobai quickly ran towards Jiang Chen.

Just as it was about to reach him, it made a sudden stop and then sat down, raising its right paw.

“I beg Eldest Senior Brother to save me!” Xiaobai said with teary eyes, his right paw resting on Jiang Chen’s shoulder.

Jiang Chen was full of question marks!

This plot, why was it wrong again!?

Just now when Xiaobai ran over, he thought he wanted to fight!

“…save what?” Jiang Chen instinctively asked.

“Eldest Senior Brother, please look up and tell me what you see.”

“I see a foolish tiger’s head.”

“No, look a bit higher.”

“…The sky?”

“Correct!!”

Xiaobai suddenly got excited, patted Jiang Chen’s shoulder, and said with a fierce tone, “I want to defy the heavens! Please, Eldest Senior Brother, lend me your strength!”

Jiang Chen’s mouth twitched.

A foolish tiger wants to defy the heavens?

Was this a joke?

He had tried to defy the heavens for nine lifetimes without success!

Seeing the confusion on his face, Xiaobai explained in detail, “To be honest, there’s a Son of Destiny called Lin Feng. He wants to eat me, and I’m doing this for self-preservation.”

Son of Destiny? Lin Feng?!

Jiang Chen instantly understood.

This foolish tiger was definitely deceived!

“Qingning buried that Lin Feng alive to save me, and then I erected a grave for him,” Xiaobai continued.

“What?!”

Jiang Chen was shocked again!

He turned to Qingning and asked, “Didn’t you say you didn’t know where Lin Feng was?”

“I really didn’t know.”

Qingning innocently blinked, “I had a feeling he could escape, right, Xiaobai?”

“Mm.” Xiaobai’s ears drooped, looking dejected.

“That Lin Feng dug a tunnel and escaped like a rat! I searched the Hengduan Mountain Range for several days but couldn’t find him, so I had to rely on the bond of our contract to find Qingning.”

After speaking, it repeated, “And I even erected a grave for him…”

Jiang Chen was speechless again.

What is this mess of a plot?

Can’t a person ascend in peace anymore?

At that moment, “Eldest Senior Brother, it’s Lin Feng! Lin Feng is coming to beat me up!”

Liu Wen’s shout came from outside the spiritual boat.

Hearing this, Jiang Chen took a deep breath.

Finally, a normal plot…
