Chapter 233 - 14: Berserk Junior Sister Refuses to Be Cannon Fodder (Part 14)

Jiang Lai sat still.

"Sorry, we don’t want to move. If you want to handle matters, go to the side."

Upon hearing Jiang Lai say this, Du Furong’s eyes widened.

These were people from the Three Sects—wealthy enough to casually pull out a thousand or two spirit stones from their pockets, and their cultivation was high, beyond comparison.

The female disciple was obviously displeased, her brows furrowed as she was about to say something, when the man who’d been standing behind her stepped forward and directly took out a bag of spirit stones from the storage space.

"We truly have something important to do, and these spirit stones are compensation, hoping you can hurry."

Somewhat polite, but not very.

Looking at the spirit stones, Fourth Senior Brother was ready to go in and move people, but just as he got up, his little junior sister spoke.

"It’s your important matter, you should figure out what to do, what does it have to do with me? And the one standing at the back, what’s your deal with staring into our tent? Trying to steal our stuff?"

Fourth Senior Brother turned around and looked at the person behind, stunned.

Oh shit, that outfit, that mask, in the entire Three Sects, who’s dressed that way besides that prodigy?

He quickly turned back, covering Jiang Lai’s mouth.

"Stop talking, we’re all from the same root, a little mutual concession is no big deal. Sorry, my little junior sister is new and lacks understanding, you guys... ah!! Jiang Lai, you dog!"

Before finishing his sentence, her finger was bitten, and Fourth Senior Brother stamped his foot in pain.

Jiang Lai gave him a cold glance.

"Know how you’ll die in the future?"

Fourth Senior Brother glared at her.

"If I die, it’ll be because you infuriated me!"

Being a bit arrogant in front of them might have been tolerable before, but what’s going on now? Who knew the person standing in front wasn’t easy to deal with?

What does easy or not easy to deal with matter? In the original plot, everyone in Tiangang Sect played it safe, yet they died and got hurt; the culprits were none other than the female lead and this arrogant, aloof male lead.

In his eyes, everyone was an ant besides the female lead, and Jiang Lai was the type who didn’t tolerate this kind of personality.

Anyway, doing nothing is death, so might as well act as one pleases.

The leading female disciple looked at Jiang Lai and coldly smiled.

"Are you sure you’re not leaving?"

"Why? Do I have to slap you in the face for you to believe what I say?"

"You speak recklessly, utterly ignorant, forcing me to show you a thing or two!"

Jiang Lai directly pulled over Second Senior Brother beside her.

"What’s up? You have more people, bullying us because we’re fewer? Let me tell you, my senior brothers are all highly skilled, touch me and my senior brothers will teach you a lesson! Right, Second Senior Brother?"

She then looked up at Second Senior Brother.

Second Senior Brother said nothing, but didn’t deny anything either, implicitly agreeing.

Fourth Senior Brother: "..."

Where’s my fast-acting heart pill?

This woman wants to die, but does she have to drag everyone else down with her?

Eight Desolates Sect hadn’t expected to run into such a foolhardy woman.

The male lead Ye Yunzhou finally spoke out.

"Deal with other places first, no need to waste time here."

"Sure, First Senior Brother."

As she was leaving, the female disciple gave a cold smile at Jiang Lai, her smile full of disdain and mockery, with a hint of menace, looking at Jiang Lai as if she was a dying person.

At this point, Little Buding reminded Jiang Lai.

"Do you remember the original plot? The place you’re standing on is dangerous."

"I know."

Jiang Lai never forgets a thing, and these plot details remain clear.

In the original plot, the male lead led Eight Desolates Sect disciples underground in the Trial Secret Realm to find spiritual ore, and the location of the spiritual ore was nearby. What the Eight Desolates Sect disciples were supposed to do was set explosives to blast open the entrance to the spiritual ore.

Such a major event naturally involved the female lead, who secretly followed the male lead into the spiritual ore and encountered the Fire Flame Dragon guarding it. After fighting side by side with the male lead and capturing the Fire Flame Dragon, she returned to the sect with hundreds of thousands of spirit stones.

This event caught the attention of the Three Sects, laying a foundation for her future entry into the Three Sects.

As cannon fodder, Tiangang Sect’s crowd was naturally at the explosion center. Because mining spiritual ore was confidential, Eight Desolates Sect naturally didn’t inform them truthfully. However, the original plot didn’t have First Senior Brother and Third Senior Brother simultaneously advancing, and First Senior Brother had a crush on the female lead, so at her persuasion, he led Tiangang Sect people away.

But the final explosion spread wider than expected. The original character accidentally fell into a crack and was trapped for three days and nights, later found and rescued by several senior brothers, barely alive.

During this, the male lead passed by the crack and heard the original character’s cries for help, but his cold nature meant he wouldn’t spare a glance for anyone he didn’t care about, let alone when the original character was at odds with the female lead and often provoked her, so he didn’t stop, just left directly.

Handling cannon fodder villains this way was indeed gratifying, but for villains who didn’t deserve death, such treatment was unfair.

More so, if the male lead had notified about the explosion range in advance, the original character wouldn’t have been trapped and suffered so much.

Because of this, while returning across Black River, Third Senior Brother fell into Black River and lost his life trying to protect her.

Thinking of this, Jiang Lai looked at the male lead’s back and smiled.

He’s scum, gotta find a way to kill him.

"Jiang Lai, are you planning to harm the male lead?"

Little Buding knew too well what Jiang Lai’s smile meant, for she was a maniac; the angrier she got, the calmer she was, and her schemes got more ruthless and cunning.

"I advise you not to have dangerous thoughts."

"I know, don’t be bothersome."

"Hey, come on, the reason you find me bothersome now is because you don’t understand me. Once you do, you’ll see that if you don’t listen, I’ll be more annoying than you think; nobody will live happily!"

Jiang Lai automatically ignored Little Buding’s words, noticing Mu Wu standing in the corner.

Since the male lead appeared, she’d been watching from the side, and when the male lead left, she followed suit.

So annoying, these two are everywhere.

——

"Wu, did you see that? That Jiang Lai is really foolish, daring to provoke anyone."

Mu Wu smiled.

"Taking an unconventional path, just drawing attention."

No one expected the mysterious masked man from that day to be Eight Desolates Sect’s eldest disciple Ye Yunzhou.

Seeing this, Jiang Lai indeed seemed foolish. A man like Ye Yunzhou wouldn’t give you special treatment just because you were deliberately rebellious.

Jiang Lai probably thought herself attractive with her defiance against authority.

Heh, interesting.

She really wanted to see the expression on Ye Yunzhou’s face beneath the mask at that time.
