Villain Cultivator

Chapter 52:Free-For-All Rumble (3)

Chapter 52 – Free-For-All Rumble (3)

The crowd was silent, looking at the smiling madman punching Yu Lin. Even after the scholar died, Xu Miao didn't stop.

Nobody dared to stop Xu Miao either as they were aware of his background and status. None of them wanted to become Silver Phoenix Sect's enemy.

But one daredevil girl pulled Xu Miao from Yu Lin. Wei Yuan dragged his shoulders and threw him away from the victim.

"Stop! That's enough already!"

Xu Miao's pupils were still glittering in murderous intent, locking his sight onto Yu Lin, who had already died from a concussion and internal bleeding. He still wanted to beat the dead body until Yu Lin's skull shattered into pieces.

"I said, STOP!!"

*PA*

Wei Yuan slapped Xu Miao's face.

The onlookers sucked their cold breath. They were afraid of what was about to come after this.

Xu Miao slowly regained his senses. He glanced at the girl who had slapped him, but the pupils still revealed the sinister light of a serial killer.

Wei Yuan could tell by just looking into the pitch-black eyes. These were the eyes of a psychopath murderer, who hardly cared about another person's life.

Seeing that Xu Miao had not sobered, Wei Yuan planned to slap him again.

Suddenly, Xu Miao seized her neck and activated his Qi absorption skill.

"Ugh!"

Her Qi was slowly taken away by the mysterious force. She widened her eyes in shock and fear.

Wei Yuan never scared of her opponents regardless of how overwhelming they were. However, she was afraid that Xu Miao would discover her secret once her Qi entered his bloodstream.

"???"

Xu Miao froze when he detected the anomaly. He tossed her away and sat cross-legged, concentrating on containing the new energy.

Xu Miao was never drunk or lost his sanity during his bloodlust state. In fact, he was aware of what he did, and he had full control of his conscience. Torturing his opponents to death gave him the same pleasure as having sex.

Also, whenever Xu Miao was in a tamed environment, such as the brothel or the public, he never revealed his bloodlust or slaughtered anyone. But when Xu Miao was in an environment that he could justify murder and scotch free, he never hesitated to kill.

The robbery attempts at the bar and the safe zone gave Xu Miao a reason to kill, and he never missed those opportunities. Unfortunately, someone always ruined his fun.

Xu Miao thought that this blond girl was one of Yu Lin's friends. At first, he planned to drain her energy and kill her as he did to Yu Lin's bodyguards.

However, the demonic Qi changed everything. Xu Miao stopped what he had planned to do to control the rampaging Qi.

'Demonic Qi!? System, I thought there were only 3 types of Qi in this world? What's this about and how can I control it!?'

'Oh?'

Demonic Body Strengthening Technique was a skill that Xu Miao had bought from the system, costing him 100 Yang Essence.

The usage of this demonic technique was simple. By consuming 100 strands of Yang Qi, Xu Miao could activate it, increasing his physical strength by ten percent. If the activation cost was 200 strands, the effect would be 20%, and so on. Fortunately, the upkeep cost was cheap as Xu Miao needed to spend Qi strands equal to 1% of the activation cost every minute.

That was the entire technique. It just buffed his physical strength, speed, reflex, and agility.

However, the system never told him that the technique could be used this way.

'How many strands or essence can I get by converting this demonic Qi? Will it worth the technique activation cost?'

This was Xu Miao's concern. If the conversion rate was 1 to 1, regardless of Yin or Yang Qi Xu Miao could obtain in return, it wasn't worth it.

>

'Wha-!?'

The conversion rate was crazy. If the current 451 demonic Qi could be exchanged into 4,510 strands of Yang Qi and Yin Qi, investing his Qi by using demonic body strengthening to digest it would be worthwhile.

Having faith in the system's survival guide, Xu Miao activated the body strengthening technique.

Xu Miao laughed. The conversion rate was so cheating that he felt bad. With this exchange rate, he was confident that he could regain the lost Qi that he used in the previous exam by stealing more Qi from this demon girl.

But now was not the time, Xu Miao stood up and returned to his unfinished shack, leaving Wei Yuan alone. He needed a place to sleep, so he could continue training in the Isolation Training Space.

The crowd continued watching the drama, but none of them bothered getting in the way. Some of them started working on their own, venturing outside and cut the trees to make shelters. A few of them formed groups and ventured into the forest, searching for a water source or hunting wild monster beasts.

The chaotic infighting ended. The dead bodies were thrown outside of the safe zone to be used as baits. As for usable armors or clothes of Yu Lin and his friends, the test-takers took them in secret.

"…"

Wei Yuan got back on her feet. When she noticed that Xu Miao stopped rampaging, she was relieved.

Still, Wei Yuan was worried that Xu Miao might discover her secret. She followed after him, wanting to coax him to keep his mouth shut.

"Ahem, young master Xu. I-ugh."

Xu Miao leered at Wei Yuan. He wanted to chase her away, but he got an inspiration. He turned toward her, "How many strands of Qi do you have?"

"Err, pardon?"

"If you don't want me to expose your little secret, you'd better tell me."

"…"

Wei Yuan's plan backfired. Not only she couldn't obtain Xu Miao's favor, she got blackmailed instead. She bit her lower lip and sulked.

"… About 5,000 strands."

"Good. Stay with me until this test is over. I need to absorb some of your Qi to replenish myself."

"You!" Wei Yuan was angry that Xu Miao treated her like a portable battery charger, "How dare you! I'm the granddaughter of Wei Huang, the first elder of Mountain Goose Sect! Do you want to start a war between our clans!?"

Xu Miao was taken aback by the revelation. He didn't expect that this girl had a strong background.

Nonetheless, Xu Miao's right hand seized Wei Yuan's neck and choked her, "I should be the one asking you that question, bitch! Do you want me to expose your secret now!? I'm sure everyone is watching our actions. Once I reveal what I have just found, your entire clan will be hunted down by every cultivator!"

Xu Miao had learned from Qi Hong. Demons existed in this world, and they were human's greatest enemies. Whenever a demon was found, all sects and clans had to put aside their differences and cooperate to eliminate the threat.

Several hundred years ago before Jia Shan was even born, demonic being used to rule the Aves Continent, and humans were nothing but their slaves. One day, cultivators appeared from other continents and eradicated all demons.

Demon Lords of various races united their forces to fight back. A war between cultivators and demons took place.

In the end, human cultivators won. Many demon races were extinct, and humans took over the land. Human declared that cultivators who possessed demonic Qi were demons. If someone were to find such a person, they had to inform the local authorities right away.

And now, Xu Miao discovered this girl's hidden secret. He suspected that she was a demon in disguise, and the Wei Clan might be involved.

Wei Yuan shuddered in fear. She abandoned her pride and knelt before him, "Please don't. Please don't destroy my family. We're the last of our kind. I-I'll be your servant. Please spare us!"

"…"

Wei Yuan's action differed from what a demon would do in Xu Miao's imagination. He doubted if demons were good guys while humans were the villains in this world.

Xu Miao knelt next to her. He whispered, "What if I tell you that I want to dual-cultivate with you. Will you comply with my order?"

Wei Yuan's shoulders shook, and her eyes were wet. She was on the verge of crying.

Noticing her reaction, Xu Miao felt bad, "Forget it. You don't have to serve me or do anything. I'll keep my mouth shut. If your demon friends leave me alone, I won't do anything to trouble you."

"Eh?"

Wei Yuan was shocked. From her experience and her grandfather's testimony, human cultivators were evil beings that always took advantage of others. She had never seen a human cultivator showing mercy to a demon like her.

"You, you won't do anything?"

"Eh, shut up! I'm in a bad mood because of you! I need time to cleanse your stupid Qi from my system, okay!? Now, scram before I turn you into my pet!"

"O-Okay."

Wei Yuan ran away from Xu Miao. Getting to keep her secret and her purity, she was relieved.

As for Xu Miao, he swallowed his saliva, trying to calm down his erected rooster. Just now, Xu Miao was on the verge of assaulting Wei Yuan and turn her into a Yin Cauldron, but he didn't want to provoke another major clan, such as the Wei Family.

Xu Miao still hadn't forgotten his priority. He had two goals.

One, kill Xie Tian.

Two, get stronger and break free from Xu Xiuying's grasp. If possible, enslave Xu Xiuying and take over the Silver Phoenix Sect from the inside.

'Not now, boner-kun. I can't offend the Wei Clan or whatever demon race they are. I need to make them my allies. I need to manipulate them to fight either Xie Tian or Xu Xiuying. Then, I need Xie Tian to be Xu Xiuying's enemy. I want chaos, but I can't be in the middle of the crossfire.'

This neutral villain was in the middle of laying groundwork for his grand scheme. The time was not ripe yet.
