Chapter 2: The Ruthless Bandit Takes Over, Planting the Seeds of Darkening

Under everyone's watchful eyes, Su Ye walked over to the green-robed girl and extended his palm: "Then let Junior Sister Meng'er return this hundred-year sacred medicine to me first."

Upon hearing this, the green-robed girl thought that her senior sister had finally relented and would give her the thousand-year sacred medicine. Without much thought, she happily handed over the hundred-year sacred medicine to Su Ye, extending her pale, delicate hand.

"Then thank you, Senior Sister, for the thousand-year sacred medicine. I will definitely not forget your help when I strengthen my foundation."

As she spoke, a smug smile spread across the green-robed girl's face.

Hmph.

Compete with me?

I'm the treasure in Master's and the senior sisters' hearts.

The sacred medicine you, Luo Qinghuan, risked your life for will now obediently be used by me, won't it?

"Is that so?"

A disdainful smirk curled at the corner of Su Ye's lips. Without hesitation, he snatched the hundred-year sacred medicine from the green-robed girl's hand. Then, to everyone's astonishment, a faint glow flickered from the storage ring on his finger as he stored both sacred medicines inside.

"Hmm...?"

"Qinghuan, what... what do you mean by this?"

Seeing this, Taiyin True Person's forced smile froze on her face, leaving her stunned.

"What... what are you doing?"

Luo Qinghuan, seeing this, was also at a loss. When she noticed everyone's gazes fixed on her, she felt an overwhelming sense of shame, wishing she could dig a hole and bury herself in it.

With her Innate Pure Saint Body, if she were on Blue Star, she'd be the ultimate socially anxious individual.

This girl is too kind.

She has the shabiti disposition.

"Luo girl, this is the first lesson I want to teach you. Since both sacred medicines were obtained by risking your life, why should you give them to her? Does she even have a choice? Is she shopping at a market?"

"As long as you don't care about morality, they can't morally pressure you."

Su Ye gave Luo Qinghuan a faint smile.

"Morality... pressure?"

"What's that?"

Luo Qinghuan blinked her beautiful eyes, confused.

Su Ye didn't explain further. Instead, he raised his head and looked coldly at Taiyin True Person.

"It doesn't matter."

"These two sacred medicines were obtained by me in the Kunlun Mirror. They belong to me. Even if they're useless to me, I have the right to throw them away to feed dogs if I want. Master, you have no right to interfere."

With these words, Taiyin True Person and the disciples of Xuan Yin Holy Sect were all stunned, looking at Luo Qinghuan with confusion. At this moment, the girl's previously soft and gentle face had lost some of its weakness, replaced by a hint of indifference.

This feeling... it was as if the person before them wasn't the senior sister they knew, but someone else entirely.

"You..."

"Sister... how could you say such things? You'd rather throw it away to feed dogs than give it to Meng'er? Am I really so unworthy in your eyes? So despised?"

Hearing Su Ye's words, the green-robed girl's face turned pale, her teeth lightly biting her red lips, appearing pitiful and fragile.

Anyone who saw this couldn't help but feel sympathy for her.

However...

At this moment, Luo Qinghuan wasn't moved by this act. After all, the one controlling her body was Su Ye, known among the Xuan Tian cultivators as the Ruthless Emperor. What kind of scene hadn't he seen?

"Yes."

"I despise you."

Su Ye nodded, directly admitting it.

"Not only do I think giving you the thousand-year sacred medicine is a waste, even using the hundred-year medicine on you would be a waste."

"One year of cultivation, five years of effort, and yet your cultivation is barely at the Spirit Sea Realm. If we gave it to a pig, after all this time, its cultivation would probably surpass the Spirit Sea Realm, wouldn't it?"

"This...!"

These words caused an uproar.

No one expected that the usually soft-spoken senior sister could be so sharp-tongued and shocking.

"Se... Senior Sister, even if you don't want to give me the sacred medicine, you didn't have to humiliate me like this... F... Fine, Meng'er will go to the Kunlun Mirror myself to find sacred medicines to strengthen my foundation."

The green-robed girl bit her silver teeth, still pretending to look pitiful and fragile.

"Alright."

"Then go ahead."

Su Ye crossed his arms, coldly watching the green-robed girl, then added:

"When you go, remember to carry a talisman in your mouth so that when the sect finds your corpse, they'll at least be able to identify who it is. After all, only cultivators at the Divine Sense Realm can enter the Kunlun Mirror. With your abilities... hah, you're far from qualified!"

"You..."

"You... you... waaaahhhhh!"

The green-robed girl was left flustered by Su Ye's words, her eyes gradually reddening until she burst into loud sobs.

Such a petty little manipulator.

How could she possibly match up against the Ruthless Emperor?

"Luo Qinghuan!"

"You've gone too far!"

"How could you make your junior sister cry like this?" Seeing the green-robed girl sobbing loudly, Taiyin True Person's expression darkened, and she immediately scolded him.

"I made my junior sister cry?"

"Hehe."

"Master, you're joking. Clearly, my junior sister underestimated herself and wanted to risk her life by entering the Kunlun Mirror. As her senior sister, I kindly advised her against it, and she was so moved that she cried."

"How could you say I made her cry?"

Su Ye crossed his arms, speaking with complete seriousness.

"You...!"

Taiyin True Person clenched her yellow teeth, not expecting her disciple to change so drastically. She coldly snorted: "You dare to defy your elders and bully your juniors! I will send you to the Law Enforcement Hall to reflect on your actions!"

"Is that so?"

Hearing this, Su Ye remained completely calm, crossing his arms and mockingly looking at Taiyin True Person.

"If I remember correctly, our Xuan Yin Holy Sect values strength above all else."

"And I am one of the top prodigies among the younger generation of Xuan Yin Holy Sect. If the sect elders found out that you pressured a prodigy disciple into handing over cultivation resources like a thousand-year sacred medicine to someone whose cultivation talent is far inferior, how do you think they would punish you?"

"You...!"

With these words, Taiyin True Person's lips twitched uncontrollably.

Of course, she knew these rules. But previously, because Luo Qinghuan had such a soft personality, she could easily manipulate her. She never expected that this stubborn girl would suddenly become so assertive.

For a moment, silence fell over the room.

"So, Luo girl, how does it feel? Isn't it satisfying?"

Seeing their silence, Su Ye smiled and asked Luo Qinghuan.

"This..."

Luo Qinghuan bit her silver teeth. Though these words weren't spoken by her, they came out of her mouth, making her feel as though she had personally experienced them. It was an indescribable feeling.

But...

There was a sense...

As if something that had been suppressed was finally being released.

"I... I don't know."

After much deliberation, Luo Qinghuan finally managed to squeeze out a response.

But that was enough. Su Ye knew that a seed of darkening had already been planted in Luo Qinghuan's heart. All that was left was to wait patiently for it to take root and grow.
