The Villainess Won’t Let the Main Leads Break Up!

Chapter 63: Insomniac.

This is a chess game set up by the system.

Shen Wanqing is well aware of it.

The explanation given by the system is that Xie Wuyan’s current state cannot be restored with external help. Therefore, they must go to a place where his soul is sealed.

That place is where the Solitary Light Sword is located.

The seal formed by the sealing curse gradually drains his soul, and then returns to the Solitary Light Sword. Relying on the immense power stored there, it completely erodes Xie Wuyan’s soul.

One month.

If they cannot find the Solitary Light Sword within a month, Xie Wuyan will probably remain in this mindless state for the rest of his life.

So Shen Wanqing must find Feng Yaoqing, the only one who can find the Lonely Light Sword. They are intricately intertwined. As long as she wants Xie Wuyan to survive, she cannot completely escape from the main storyline of the original book.

As for what they will face after finding the Solitary Light Sword and restoring Xie Wuyan, it remains unknown.

How to find Ji Feichen…

Shen Wanqing calculated.

It has been nearly three to four months since she left these two people. According to the original book’s plot, it should have reached the last supporting female character, who is also the most difficult one to deal with, the “the charming and vicious banshee”.

Being the ace supporting female character in the original book, she is certainly not as easy to deal with as the previous ones, especially in terms of her species.

The emotional journey of this supporting female character is quite simple. It starts with her accidentally seeing Ji Feichen while shopping. Seeing his handsome appearance and strong physique, she thinks he can replenish her energy. So she wants to seduce him to absorb his yang energy and improve her cultivation.

However, she didn’t expect Ji Feichen, being the male protagonist, would not be affected by ordinary seduction tactics.

So the supporting female character suddenly aroused a despicable desire to win, thinking, “Why are there men in the world who are so indifferent to me?” So she found a reason to cling to them. Then she took the opportunity to constantly find faults with the female lead, overtly and covertly seducing the male lead.

Shen Wanqing didn’t know the specific progress of the plot, but she knew that Ji Feichen was going to eliminate this female banshee near Chitong Pass. And because this female banshee’s cultivation was extremely terrifying, it caused quite a stir in the cultivation world.

So as long as you go to the vicinity of Chitong Pass and wait for the rabbit by guarding the stump, it will be enough1.

But logically speaking, she wasn’t suitable for appearing in her true identity now since almost everyone in the world could recognize them by their faces.

Even mountains and rivers in the martial world have painters who use them as prototypes to create picture books. These books have sold extremely well, directly pushing down Jiang Shujun2‘s works from the altar.

So Shen Wanqing used a disguise technique on herself and Xie Wuyan, and incidentally turned the Xuanniao into a parrot.

But it seemed that Xie Wuyan didn’t like being disguised. As soon as Shen Wanqing turned her head, he burned off his newly changed face.

After going back and forth more than a dozen times, Shen Wanqing started training Xie Wuyan like a child, saying, “Listen, we need to change our faces.”

Xie Wuyan refused.

Not only did he refuse to change, but he also angrily burned off Shen Wanqing’s disguise technique and stubbornly turned Xuanniao into a crow.

So the two of them inexplicably started fighting, and inside the carriage, it was filled with smoke and banging sounds. Xuanniao experienced almost every animal from a crow to a rat.

Finally, Shen Wanqing couldn’t take it anymore and said angrily, “Xie Wuyan!”

Xie Wuyan seemed to sense Shen Wanqing’s anger, clenched his teeth, and defiantly stared back at her.

Shen Wanqing was infuriated.

So she turned her body, hugged her arms, and made a light grunt without looking at him.

Xie Wuyan was also angry with her and ignored her without saying a word.

Only Xuanniao, who was affected by the two, lay weakly on the table, looking at these two troublesome ancestors.

After about half an incense stick’s time, Xie Wuyan moved and quietly looked up at Shen Wanqing.

Shen Wanqing was still angry.

Another half incense stick’s time passed, and Xie Wuyan glanced at Shen Wanqing again.

Shen Wanqing was still angry.

So Xie Wuyan moved closer to her side.

Shen Wanqing noticed Xie Wuyan’s action. In fact, given her temperament, she had stopped being angry with this mentally two or three-year-old Xie Wuyan a long time ago. But because of the dignity of a girl, she pretended not to notice him.

It was not until Xie Wuyan moved next to her that Shen Wanqing turned her head with an expressionless face.

Xie Wuyan looked into her eyes, pursed his lips, and then lowered his head. A layer of purple light surged like ripples all over his body, and then he transformed into the appearance of another person.

He used a disguise technique on himself.

Just like a child trying to make someone happy.

Shen Wanqing was stunned. She looked at Xie Wuyan, who was hanging his head and looking unhappy, and seemed to suddenly understand something.

According to Xie Wuyan’s current mental state, he couldn’t understand why he should change into another person’s appearance. He was unhappy because he thought she didn’t like his face.

For Xie Wuyan, who was incredibly proud even if he lost his soul, this was something that deeply hurt his pride.

But in order to make her happy, he still chose to obediently listen to her.

Shen Wanqing didn’t know why, but suddenly she felt sorry for him.

She reached out her hand and pulled Xie Wuyan into her embrace, letting him bury his head in the crook of her neck and rubbing his hair like stroking a pet.

She sniffed and forced back her choked voice.

Although she knew that Xie Wuyan couldn’t understand the meaning behind her words, she still wanted to say it to him.

“I’m sorry.”

“I don’t dislike you.”

“You won’t have to suffer like this soon, and then you can do whatever you want.”

After a few days of traveling, Shen Wanqing estimated that they would reach Chitong Pass tomorrow, so that night they found an inn to stay in.

Xie Wuyan had just returned from that place and was covered in injuries. Even though he seemed unaware of it himself, considering his condition, it was still not easy for him to continue traveling for a long time.

Moreover, Chitong Pass at this moment was likely to face a fierce battle.

At first, Shen Wanqing was indeed worried that Xie Wuyan’s current condition might lead to some problems, but soon she dispelled this doubt.

He is very obedient now, even more so than Xuanniao. And when she argued with Xuanniao, he would protect her especially and even pluck half of Xuanniao’s feathers.

However, at night: obedient my foot.

Shen Wanqing, who was being used as a pillow in his arms, was very annoyed. Why, after such a long time, had she evolved into an esteemed palace master, yet still couldn’t escape this fate.

Moreover, the previous Xie Wuyan, at the very least, respected the dignity of the pillow, just holding it without moving. But now, Xie Wuyan really enjoys moving! Hands! And! Feet!

Shen Wanqing felt utterly hopeless as he kneaded her back and forth. Finally, when his hand was about to touch her chest, she couldn’t bear it any longer and firmly held it back.

Then, she pushed Xie Wuyan away a little.

No, she couldn’t tolerate this.

How could she, the upgraded version of Shen Wanqing, let someone like Xie Wuyan, who has weakened to the point of becoming a milk dog, be so unbridled?

So, she started to get angry with great dignity and said, “Xie Wuyan, let go of me!”

Xie Wuyan’s right hand was held by her, his pair of pitch-black pupils staring at her face, lips pursed, not saying a word, and then he frowned.

… For some reason, she always felt that his frowning face alone could be quite intimidating.

Shen Wanqing felt a slight guilt in her heart, but quickly remembered that she was the one who was in the right. So she raised an eyebrow and spoke with great determination, “Let go.”

Xie Wuyan stared at her motionlessly for a while, then let go of her hand.

Shen Wanqing: “?”

So obedient?

However, at that moment, Xie Wuyan lowered his head and, like an angry beast, bit her neck.

Shen Wanqing instinctively turned her head.

However, Xie Wuyan didn’t bite hard. His brow furrowed, originally filled with displeasure, but when his skin touched Shen Wanqing’s, he hesitated.

He paused for a long time, lifted his head again, and looked at Shen Wanqing’s face.

Shen Wanqing tilted her head and didn’t look at him.

She paused for a while, closed her eyes, then released her hand that was holding Xie Wuyan’s, and instead caressed his back, followed by a soothing pat.

Xie Wuyan’s expression relaxed slightly, and then, under her comfort, he quickly let go of his grievances.

He bent down, buried his head in the nape of her neck, and closed his eyes.

Whether it was because Shen Wanqing’s body contained his own spiritual power or for some other reason, in any case, Xie Wuyan really liked the scent on her.

Finally, under Shen Wanqing’s comforting, Xie Wuyan let go of all his vigilance and fell asleep peacefully. He lay quietly on her, with a calm expression, and could even hear faint breathing sounds.

Just like a very easy-to-soothe puppy.

So, as Puppy Xie fell asleep, he instinctively hugged Shen Wanqing tightly. He nuzzled around, searching for a comfortable place to rest and sleep.

He searched and nuzzled.

And he succeeded一

Soft!

Comfortable!

Puppy Xie fell asleep contentedly.

And then一

“Xie Wuyan! Get out of my way!” Shen Wanqing wanted to kill someone. “Can’t you just sleep on a pillow? Even a three-year-old child is easier to handle than you!”

. . . . .

The next day, Shen Wanqing went on the road with dark circles under her eyes, looking numb.

In order to reach Chitong Pass as quickly as possible, she chose to go straight through the dense forest. However, there were monsters everywhere in the forest. Not only did she have to concentrate on controlling the carriage with her spiritual power, but she also had to hide her presence from those monsters.

Shen Wanqing was tired, and she began to miss the days when she was a salted fish.

Being a strong person is really exhausting.

She glanced at Xie Wuyan beside her.

He perfectly inherited her salted fish attributes, sitting next to her rubbing his sleepy eyes, nodding his head like a woodpecker, looking very sleepy. Finally, he comfortably rested his head on Shen Wanqing’s shoulder and fell asleep.

Judging by his recent frequency of sleeping, it seemed like he wanted to make up for all the years he hadn’t slept well.

Shen Wanqing was furious.

Who was the one who couldn’t sleep yesterday!

She glanced at Xuanniao beside her.

Xuanniao seemed to be in a better mood. It stood by the window, enjoying the scenery, and occasionally flirted with passing extremely beautiful birds.

The thing Shen Wanqing couldn’t tolerate the most in her life was when she was busy working on her tasks, her colleagues could happily slack off.

So she grabbed Xuanniao, bullied it a bit, and also closed the window where it could flirt with other female birds. Then she turned her head, ready to confront Xie Wuyan.

But what caught her eye was his peacefully sleeping face.

To avoid drawing attention, Xie Wuyan wore a black cloak, with the hood covering half of his face, making his complexion even paler. He breathed lightly, his eyelashes trembling slightly, appearing devoid of any hostility or vigilance.

He seemed quite pitiable.

Shen Wanqing felt a deep sense of heartache.

And then, the next second, she shook him awake.

Surprising, isn’t it? I have no heart, I don’t pity people.

Yesterday, you didn’t let me sleep, so today I won’t let you sleep.

Xie Wuyan, who was awakened, looked a bit confused, gazing at Shen Wanqing with a bewildered expression.

Shen Wanqing gently reached out and touched his head, confidently finding a reason to scare him, “You can’t sleep, oh. It’s dangerous around here now.”

Xie Wuyan tilted his head as if he didn’t understand, showing a puzzled expression. Then he yawned and prepared to go back to sleep.

And then, Shen Wanqing shook him awake again.

Xie Wuyan: “?”

Shen Wanqing began to coax him like a child, “Be good and listen. Just think, what if a monster attacked you while you were sleeping? Isn’t that dangerous?”

Dangerous…?

This time Xie Wuyan understood.

And then, the next second, he disappeared in an instant.
