Villain: Manipulating the Heroines into hating the Protagonist

Chapter 879: Chen Ying Falls Into Depravity

The first light of dawn was a cruel intruder, its pale, ghostly fingers creeping into the opulent confines of Chen Ying’s cave dwelling. It illuminated a scene of utter devastation. Fine silk robes, once a symbol of her pristine status as the Ice Phoenix of the inner sect, lay in torn, pathetic ribbons on the floor. Ornate furniture was overturned. And on the large, plush meditation mat, amidst a chaotic tangle of beast furs, lay Chen Ying herself, her magnificent body a canvas of carnal conquest.

Her flawless white jade skin was flushed a deep, rosy pink, marked with the faint, fading red imprints of his hands and the darker, more possessive love bites on her neck and the creamy slopes of her impossibly large breasts. Her muscles ached with a profound weariness she had never known, a deep, throbbing soreness in her thighs and her most intimate core that was a constant, humiliating reminder of the brutal, relentless pleasure she had been forced to endure. She felt... hollowed out. Broken.

She stirred, a soft whimper escaping her swollen lips. Her memory of the night was a chaotic, feverish blur of overwhelming sensations: pain turning to a pleasure so intense it was a new kind of agony; humiliation morphing into a mindless, desperate need; her own voice, screaming his name, begging for the very violation her mind had so vehemently rejected.

She slowly pushed herself up, her body protesting with every movement. She saw him then. He was already awake, sitting calmly in a chair he had righted, sipping a cup of spirit tea as if he had just enjoyed a pleasant evening stroll. He was dressed, his simple grey robes a stark contrast to her own naked, debauched state. He looked handsome, powerful, and completely, utterly in control.

As her eyes met his, a fresh wave of terror, shame, and a deeply buried, traitorous flicker of something else—a strange, aching longing—washed over her. She quickly averted her gaze, pulling a discarded fur pelt over her nakedness, a futile attempt to reclaim some shred of dignity. The prideful defiance of yesterday was gone, burned away in the fires of his insatiable lust, leaving only the cold, hard ash of resignation. She understood now. This man was not a beast. He was a god of a darker pantheon, and she was merely a mortal who had stumbled into his temple. Resisting him was not just futile; it was an invitation for him to display his power in even more terrifying ways.

Wang Jian watched her, a faint, satisfied smirk touching his lips. He saw the shift in her eyes, the absence of the fiery hatred from the night before, replaced now by a deep, weary fear. The breaking was complete. Now came the taming.

He rose from his chair and walked towards her, his movements fluid and unhurried. He knelt before her on the mat, his presence a palpable weight. He reached out, his hand gently cupping her cheek, tilting her face up to meet his gaze. She flinched but didn’t pull away.

"Good morning, my proud phoenix," he murmured, his voice a low, seductive rumble that made her tremble. He leaned in and captured her lips in a kiss. It wasn’t the brutal assault of the previous night, but a slow, possessive claiming, a reminder of his ownership.

He kissed her deeply, then pulled back, his other hand moving to cup one of her large, heavy breasts, which was barely concealed by the fur. He squeezed it gently, a proprietary gesture. "I trust you slept well?"

Chen Ying moaned softly, an involuntary sound of mingled pain and a remembered pleasure that made her blush furiously. She shook her head, unable to speak, her mind a chaotic whirl.

"A talk, then," he said, his thumb brushing over her still-sensitive nipple through the fur, making her gasp. "Tell me, Chen Ying. Your grandfather, Ancestor Chen. Since we returned from the Forbidden Ground, have you spoken to him? Have you mentioned me?"

The question was calm, but the underlying threat was a razor’s edge against her soul. She looked into his deep, dark eyes and knew that the wrong answer would have dire consequences.

"N-no," she stammered, her voice hoarse. "I have said... nothing. Nothing about you." Her magnificent breasts, still aching from his rough attention, heaved with her nervous breaths. "I told him only what we agreed. That we found the Spirit Cleansing Pool. That you and the others... assisted me. He was... satisfied with the legacy scriptures I brought back. He hasn’t asked for more details."

"And your theory about me?" Wang Jian pressed, his fingers gently pinching her nipple now, sending a sharp, electric jolt through her. "What have you concluded about the man who so easily devoured the soul of a Nascent Soul expert?"

She shuddered, the memory of that psychic void still a source of primal terror. "I... I believe you are a powerful expert, an ancient soul who has taken over the body of the disciple Wang Jian," she whispered, her voice filled with a terrified awe. "There is no other explanation for your power, your knowledge... your... ruthlessness."

Wang Jian bit her nipple gently through the fur, eliciting another choked moan. His hand continued to squeeze and fondle her breast as he leaned in, his lips brushing her ear. "You are wrong, my sweet phoenix," he whispered, a hint of amusement in his voice. "This is no possession. Consider it... a reincarnation. This body is mine, remade. And you are correct about one thing. I am an expert, and I will rise very, very quickly."

His voice turned cold, the playfulness gone. "It is a very good thing you did not speak of me to your grandfather. If you had, I would have had no choice but to visit his dwelling next. And I assure you, a mere Core Formation expert would not have presented much of a challenge. His death would have been... inconvenient for us both."

Chen Ying’s eyes widened, a fresh wave of terror washing over her. The casual way he spoke of killing a Core Formation Elder, her grandfather, the pillar of her life... it was not a boast. It was a simple statement of capability. She nodded frantically, tears welling in her eyes. "I understand. I won’t say anything. I swear it!"

"Good girl," he purred, his tone softening again. He kissed her tears away, a gesture that was shockingly tender after his cold threat.

She gathered her courage, her voice a trembling whisper. "Wang Jian... what... what are we now? This... relationship. In front of the others... how should I treat you?"

He smiled, a slow, predatory smile that made her heart hammer. "In public? Nothing changes. You are the proud Senior Sister Chen, the phoenix of the inner sect. I am the talented but junior alchemist, Wang Jian. We are polite acquaintances, nothing more. You will continue to act as you always have."

He leaned closer, his voice dropping to an intimate, possessive growl. "But in private... in private, you are mine. My plaything. My slave. I will come to visit you, often. And you will be ready to receive me, to please me in any way I see fit. And when I visit," he added, his eyes gleaming with a hedonistic light, "I expect you to be... appropriately attired. Go to the mortal cities. Buy the most erotic, the most revealing, the most demeaning clothing you can find. Silks that are barely there. Leathers that bind and display. I want to see the proud Senior Sister of the Mystic Peak Sect dressed like a common brothel whore, waiting on her hands and knees for her Master. Do you understand?"

The sheer, calculated cruelty of his command, the depth of the humiliation he intended for her, made her stomach clench. But she looked into his eyes, saw the absolute, unyielding dominance there, and knew that refusal was not an option. She was trapped in his cage, and its bars were forged from her own terror and her body’s traitorous desires.

With a final, broken sob, she nodded. "I... understand, Master."

The word slipped out, unbidden, a final, total surrender.

A look of profound satisfaction crossed Wang Jian’s face. He sealed their new arrangement with another deep, conquering kiss, then, as if nothing had happened, he rose, dressed, and vanished from her cave dwelling as silently as he had arrived, leaving her naked, broken, and utterly his.

Wang Jian returned to his own cave dwelling. The conquest of Chen Ying had been a satisfying diversion, but now, his focus returned to the most important task: his own ascension.

For the next month and a half, the Mystic Peak Sect was quiet. Yue Lingshan remained in deep seclusion, her aura steadily growing as she pushed towards the Foundation Establishment Realm. Wang Jian, too, spent most of his time cultivating, his new, tripartite Steller Demonic Meridian Scripture working at full capacity, refining his Qi, tempering his body, and nourishing his soul simultaneously.

But his nights were not spent alone.

True to her word, her will now completely subjugated, Chen Ying would frequently visit his cave dwelling, always under the cloak of darkness, her movements furtive, her beautiful face a mask of shame and anticipation. She had obeyed his command. Her storage pouch now contained a secret wardrobe that would have made the madam of the most decadent brothel in the Imperial City blush.

Their sessions were a continuation of her breaking, a relentless exploration of her submission. He made her wear clothing that was little more than strategically placed ribbons of silk, or tight, black leather that molded to her voluptuous curves like a second skin. He made her perform slow, erotic dances for him, her magnificent body moving to a silent rhythm, her eyes downcast in humiliation as he watched her with a cold, appreciative gaze.

He was merciless. He would tie her to the stone pillars of his cave, her magnificent body displayed for his pleasure, and he would smack her plump, curvaceous buttocks until they were a rosy red, her muffled cries of pain and pleasure the only sound. He even used a thin, spirit-infused whip on occasion, its light sting leaving faint, red marks on her perfect white skin, marks that he would then soothe with his tongue, driving her to the brink of madness.

He broke her of every last shred of her noble embarrassment. He took her outdoors, in the secluded woods behind their cave dwellings, under the cold light of the moon. He fucked her against the rough bark of an ancient tree, her legs wrapped around his waist, her cries swallowed by the vast, silent night. He had her on a bed of soft moss beside a moonlit stream, her beautiful white ass held high as he pounded into her from behind.

And through it all, a strange, terrifying transformation was occurring within Chen Ying. The shame was still there, the humiliation a constant, burning ember. But woven into it was a dark, addictive thread of immense pleasure. She began to crave his dominance, his cruelty. Her body, now thoroughly awakened, would ache for him, for the release only he could provide. She hated him. She feared him. And she was becoming hopelessly, irrevocably, addicted to him.

One month after Wang Jian had emerged from his own seclusion, a powerful, vibrant aura erupted from Yue Lingshan’s cave dwelling. A wave of pure, foundational energy washed over the outer sect, announcing the birth of a new Foundation Establishment expert.

She spent another two weeks consolidating her new realm, her modified cultivation technique allowing her to stabilize her foundation with remarkable speed.

The day she finally emerged, she was radiant. Her beauty, already stunning, had taken on a new, otherworldly quality. Her skin glowed, her eyes shone with power, and she carried herself with the undeniable confidence of a true cultivator who had crossed a major threshold. Her first thought, her only thought, was to find Jian.

She made her way to his cave dwelling, her heart light, a happy, excited smile on her face. She couldn’t wait to share her joy with him, to feel his arms around her, to celebrate their joint success.

Inside the cave, Wang Jian felt her approach. He had been in the middle of a... private training session with Chen Ying. She was on her hands and knees before him, dressed in a ridiculously small, maid-like outfit, dutifully polishing his Glacial Bite sword with a silk cloth, her magnificent breasts and buttocks jiggling with every movement.

"She’s coming," he said, his voice calm.

Chen Ying froze, her eyes wide with panic. "Lingshan? Here? Now? She can’t see me like this!"

"She won’t," Wang Jian said smoothly. He gestured towards a section of the cavern wall that looked like solid stone. With a pulse of his Qi, a hidden door slid open, revealing a small, dark secret compartment he had carved out for just such an occasion. "Inside. Now. And not a sound."

Chen Ying scrambled into the dark, cramped space, her heart hammering. The stone door slid shut, plunging her into darkness. A tiny, almost invisible crack allowed her a sliver of a view into the main chamber.

Moments later, Yue Lingshan entered, her face beaming. "Jian! I did it!"

Wang Jian greeted her with a warm, loving smile that made Chen Ying’s heart ache with a fierce, bitter jealousy. "Lingshan! I knew you would. Come here."

He pulled her into his arms, hugging her tightly, spinning her around. He kissed her with a passion that seemed genuine, full of pride and affection. From her dark hiding place, Chen Ying watched, her nails digging into her palms. He had never kissed her like that. His kisses were for conquest, for punishment, for lust. This... this was the kiss of a lover.

"You are even more beautiful now, my Foundation Establishment fairy," he murmured against Yue Lingshan’s lips.

"It’s all thanks to you, Jian," she whispered, her eyes shining with adoration. "The pills, the technique... everything."

He smiled, then his gaze turned hungry, but it was a hunger laced with affection. "Now that you’ve consolidated your realm... I think a celebration is in order."

He gently, lovingly, began to unfasten her robes. Chen Ying watched, her heart a cold, heavy stone in her chest, as he slowly, reverently, undressed Yue Lingshan. He treated her body like a precious treasure, his touches gentle, his kisses tender. He laid her down on the very furs where he had so brutally taken Chen Ying just hours before, and began to make love to her.

It was a stark, agonizing contrast. With Yue Lingshan, he was a considerate, passionate lover. He whispered words of love and praise, he took his time, exploring her body with a sensual reverence that made her moan with pure, unadulterated pleasure. He brought her to climax again and again with his hands and his mouth before finally entering her, their bodies moving together in a beautiful, harmonious rhythm.

Chen Ying watched it all, every tender kiss, every loving caress, every shared moan of ecstasy. A single, hot tear of pure, bitter jealousy rolled down her cheek. She was the secret, the debased plaything hidden in the dark. Yue Lingshan was the cherished queen, loved openly in the light. The realization was a shard of ice in her heart.

The night was long. Yue Lingshan, after being thoroughly loved and cherished, finally fell into a deep, contented sleep, her body curled against Wang Jian’s.

For a long time, the cave was silent. Then, Chen Ying saw Wang Jian carefully, gently, disentangle himself from the sleeping princess. He stood up, his magnificent body a silhouette against the dim light. He turned his head and looked directly towards her hiding place. He beckoned with one finger.

Trembling, Chen Ying pushed open the secret door and emerged. As commanded, she crawled out on all fours, her ridiculous, skimpy maid outfit a mark of her shame.

He pointed to the floor, right beside the furs where Yue Lingshan lay sleeping peacefully.

Chen Ying understood. She crawled over, her heart a chaotic mix of fear, humiliation, and a dark, twisted excitement.

He knelt behind her, not a word spoken. He entered her from behind, his thrusts silent, deep, and powerful. He fucked her against the ground, his hand clamped over her mouth to stifle the loud, ecstatic moans that threatened to erupt from her throat. He took her against the wall, her leg hooked over his shoulder, her body trembling with the force of her silent orgasm. He used her body thoroughly, cruelly, his every action a stark contrast to the loving tenderness he had shown Yue Lingshan.

And as he pounded into her, his hot seed filling her for the third time that day, his eyes were fixed on the sleeping form of the princess. A cold, possessive smile played on his lips. One was his light, his cherished queen. The other was his shadow, his broken slave. And he, Wang Jian, was the absolute Master of them both. The foundations of his harem were now firmly, irrevocably, in place.
