The Villain Loaded My System

Chapter 92.1

The main hall was built on the largest and tallest mountain in the Tiansu Immortal Sect, and there were smaller buildings attached to it stretching down.

The main hall at the top of the clouds was not accessible to everyone. First, you had to be an inner disciple, and second, you had to have a certain level of cultivation. If you were not strong enough, you could only wander around under the mountainside and other small peaks on the side.

When Gu Xiyu went over, there were not too many people around, but those who saw him had a very serious face or a look of desire to say something.

However, a cute girl dressed in pink ran toward him with a worried expression after he landed. Gu Xiyu didn’t mind normal conversation, but when he saw that she was about to jump into his arms, he subconsciously took a few steps back to avoid it, feeling a little uncertain.

Although he had not yet met other cultivators of his sect, there was no guarantee that the original owner wasn’t married to anyone or something like that.

Fortunately, the system’s information was quickly triggered: [[Guo Yiyi, your third senior brother’s young apprentice, is very fond of you, the senior uncle. However, the original owner cut off emotions and has very little contact with her. He has not developed any special relationship with her and has a clean love history. The original owner is very popular in the original plot, and there are many admirers, so you have to be careful.]]

[[A reminder from the system: The system does not support studs and harems, so it is advisable to be exclusive.]]

“…”

These sentences were obviously sent out automatically, but the intelligent system of this world quickly commented.

[Heh, how popular.]

A completely cynical attitude.

Gu Xiyu was used to the system resetting and the different personalities after, so he calmly responded, “I’m not interested in anyone, you don’t have to worry about that.”

With these words, he only nodded to Guo Yiyi, who was a short distance away from him, and then walked towards the main hall.

In the spacious, deserted, and elegant glazed hall, only a few people were standing; one of them was a middle-aged man of about forty years old with a serious and majestic look. He should be the sect master of the Tiansu Immortal Sect, Lin Wuhen.

During the past few days, he had asked the system for information on the male and female protagonists and the main characters of this world. The female protagonist was Lin Wuhen’s daughter, called Lin Qianyue, a particularly unrestrained girl with a cheerful and mischievous personality. The male protagonist had not yet appeared at this time; he would participate in the recruitment trials of the Tiansu Immortal Sect soon and directly join as an inner disciple after excelling in them.

It was said that the male protagonist will also go on the Emotionless Dao in the future. The Tiansu Immortal Sect was one of the top-ranked sects in the cultivation world and had the best resources to practice this dao, so it was indeed a very good choice. Moreover, the male protagonist was a gifted youngster who, if properly cultivated, would become the hope of annihilating the great demon, Bu Tianhan. It was because of this that Bu Tianhan kept targeting the male protagonist afterward. According to the system’s projections, there was a high probability that Bu Tianhan, who now had the soul fragment of the Great Demon, would kill the male protagonist before he matured, and that’s why they, the mission executors, needed to step in to deal with it.

These were all matters that came later. Today, Lin Wuheng had called him with a sullen face, and it probably had something to do with the mission target.

The rest of the elders in the sect and his senior brothers were all present. They looked worried about him but were unable to do anything about it.

Lin Wuhen looked at him rather coldly, without the enthusiasm of a sect master meeting his disciple, and did not even let him rise immediately after he went on one knee to greet him. He only glanced at him and asked, “Do you know why I have asked you to come here today for?”

“This disciple guesses that it has something to do with Bu Tianhan.” Gu Xiyu replied.

At these words, Lin Wuhen no longer suppressed his anger and directly raised his voice, “You also know that Bu Tianhan is not to be messed with, right? Then why did you fight him?!”

Only then did Gu Xiyu realize that after he had left that day, the infuriated Bu Tianhan knew that he could not mess with him for the time being and cleverly did not seek revenge on him, but started to find trouble with other minor figures in the vicinity. He released the news to the public that thirteen of his sacrifices had been let go by Gu Xiyu, for which he decided to kill one hundred and thirty people as a price.

Bu Tianhan had never been a paper tiger that only scared people, he dared to do what he said, and these days, several people from small villages or small sects have been targeted. He did not capture those people back for sacrifice but simply killed them just to reach the so-called one hundred and thirty people.

Because it affected several people in the cultivation world, normal people and cultivators who were worried about such things falling on their heads made a scene at the Tiansu Immortal Sect, saying that Gu Xiyu had caused them no peace while he himself was hiding in the mountains and did not dare to come down to deal with it.

All of heaven and earth could see that Gu Xiyu was unaware of this matter because he was too ‘closed off’.

The sect master was still scolding him: “How many innocent people have been hurt because you made such a mess!”

Gu Xiyu was silent for a moment and asked in disbelief, “I happened to be captured and taken to Bu Tianhan’s demon palace that day, surrounded by innocent people who were about to become his sacrificial offerings, shouldn’t they have been saved?”

Gu Xiyu was the ‘trump card’ that the Tiansu Immortal Sect had been quietly raising for a long time, waiting for him to break through to the peak and become someone who could suppress Bu Tianhan, and then come right out and wipe out Bu Tianhan and his evil forces in one fell swoop. Unexpectedly, he and Bu Tianhan had met in advance and caused such a serious incident, so the plan was all disrupted.

The sect master was choked by his question.

Gu Xiyu continued in a low voice: “ Perhaps the Sect master can give me a direct order so that I know that the next time I encounter such a situation, I should not save a single person and escape alone.”

The sect master’s eyes went wide, “You ……!”

A few fellow elders on the side took the opportunity to persuade, “Right, this junior brother doesn’t seem like someone who would pick a fight at random. Besides, he was originally the one we were going to use against Bu Tianhan, and since he was captured into the Demon Palace, he couldn’t just meekly fold his arms.”

The matter was indeed a matter of choice, after all, a righteous Immortal Sect could not educate its disciples to stand by and do nothing. The sect master was usually enthusiastic about saving people; after all, it could also enhance the reputation of their sect, but Gu Xiyu’s rescue offended Bu Tianhan, the demon. He was the last person the cultivation world would want to mess with, so things became more tangled.

The Sect master probably felt that the other elders had made a good point, and after a pause, he turned to Gu Xiyu and said angrily, “Even if you saved people, why did you deliberately provoke Bu Tianhan and injure him?”

Most of the people were actually delighted with this matter. Over the centuries, many of the talents that their Immortal Sect had attempted to cultivate had been killed by Bu Tianhan before they could grow up, and there had been several plans to gather many great powers to besiege Bu Tianhan. It was just that this demon had a special physique that made him difficult to handle, and the most vexing thing was that he could not be killed.

There was a time when they thought they had succeeded in strangling Bu Tianhan, and they celebrated for some time. Then one calm afternoon, Bu Tianhan, whose body had been repaired by the demon seed, returned intact and with a new level of cultivation, so high that the original line-up could no longer pose the same threat to him.

Only then did they realize that the evil in his body also had the effect of a phoenix being reborn in nirvana. Each time he was reborn from death, he would have a new level of power. The orthodox cultivators were in despair once they learned this. Not only did they have to endure the threat he posed, but they could not just kill him.

This brought the plan back to the Emotionless Dao.

Gu Xiyu raised his head slightly and calmly said to the sect master, “I have the power to suppress Bu Tianhan, and when I finally had an opportunity to touch him, shouldn’t I have taken the opportunity to consume more of the demonic power in him? I thought that this was my duty.”

The demonic power that Bu Tianhan carried could only be weakened by two techniques. Gu Xiyu had beaten him up a while ago, and he had received attacks from those two moves. The spiritual power contained in the attacks was able to penetrate his flesh and slightly weaken the demon seed within him. The demon seed is so precious that it will be even more difficult and time-consuming for him to replace the lost portion than it was for Gu Xiyu to beat him up, and he may not even be able to repair it to its original level by the time he faces Gu Xiyu again.

Although Gu Xiyu had not yet studied these two techniques to their peak, he planned to slowly study them over time.

He had a point, but the Sect Master was still angry at the trouble that had suddenly befallen them: “You have to discuss this with us before you do it! You have to accept this punishment, no matter what. That is the only way I can explain it to the people outside!”

Gu Xiyu knelt on both knees, but his back was straight and he didn’t say anything. It was as if he had accepted the decision in silence, but it could also be interpreted as defiance.

Naturally, the punishments of the cultivators were not like those of ordinary people who were locked up or copied books. Beatings were inevitable, but not with ordinary sticks that could only cause itchy external wounds. For example, in the Tiansu Immortal Sect, an immortal whip with thunder and lightning is used to punish ‘immortals’ like them.

Gu Xiyu did not count the total number of lashes he had received but only knew that when the first whip fell, the pain penetrated his flesh and soul.

It was similar to the electric shock punishment he had received when he refused to do the mission, except that the single whip was not as intense as that electric shock.

The whip hit his body, and the flesh under his clothes should have left a lot of horrible scars, but the imaginary flesh splitting open and blood filling his lapel wasn’t there. There wasn’t even a drop of blood lost, but the effect was even more unbearable than the flesh splitting open.

Even so, Gu Xiyu didn’t even bend his back during the punishment; his willpower was as strong as his bones, and he would rather die than give in.

He could faintly hear people talking outside the punishment room, as if they were speaking for him and begging for mercy, hoping that the sect master would withdraw his order. The sect master refused, threatening that he had been too indulgent of Gu Xiyu all these years and needed to use this punishment to teach him a lesson.
