Reborn As A Villainous Cannon Fodder

13/14,

Another chapter and all the debt has been paied :3

-----------

As a fox demon, Yuebai possessed peak Nascent Soul realm cultivation, half a step into Divine Transformation. Though her innate talent might not match Jinyue's, Yuebai's illusions excelled in stability and duration. Normally, unless facing a cultivator at Divine Transformation realm or above, it was difficult to discern Yuebai's true identity.

Though not a permanent solution, it was sufficient to deal with Xumo in the medium term!

Because Yino had promised Yuebai.

He said after resolving his troubles in the Western Region, he would return to the Central Plains and help Yuebai escape from the Jianlan Sect...

Though Yino had made similar promises to Ruoning, quite the playboy, whenever Yuebai thought of this promise, she still held hope for a genuine life at the Jianlan Sect.

She believed Yino would return...

After all, she wore the ring on her ring finger, and her soul was mortgaged to Yino through the sacred mark. Yuebai could contact Yino anytime, anywhere. If she truly couldn't bear it, she could arrange a time to meet Yino at night for relief.

No!

Back in Jiangnan for less than two days, how could I already have such weak thoughts!

Yuebai snapped out of her reverie again, steeling her heart and slapping her shamefully flushed face, which refused to show any dignity.

I must persevere!

I can't keep thinking about Yino, or the more I think of him, the emptier my heart feels... it was just a one-night stand, a physical relationship. The ring and spiritual markings are just his means of controlling me...

From this separation, unless Yino actively comes to Jiangnan to find me, I will absolutely not contact him first, even if I starve to death at the Jianlan Sect or jump from the Heartbreak Cliff!

Under the moonlight, the white foxgirl gritted her teeth and made her determination.

…

At Ranmo Peak.

Night had fallen, and the intense battle in the small room had ended.

Yino lay limply on the bed, too exhausted to get up, while Yuyan sat beside him, silently flipping through the evil-dispelling manual.

They seemed to have reached a strange understanding.

Since Yuyan was sitting and Yino was lying face down, the young man's face was almost pressed against his senior sister's leg. Yuyan didn't mind, neither sending Yino away nor being stingy about bringing her thigh close to Yino's face.

This felt like a silent compensation.

Because during the energy channeling earlier, Yuyan had truly hurt Yino, who was still somewhat exhausted. Even with his senior sister's white silk jade legs right by his mouth, Yino couldn't summon any enthusiasm...

"Yino, are you asleep?"

Yuyan had originally thought that by sitting at the head of the bed and placing her leg by the pillow, Yino would surely be unable to resist touching her and taking advantage.

But unexpectedly, she had flipped through the manual for quite some time, and the young man lying by the pillow showed no movement.

When Yuyan softly inquired just now, the young man still didn't respond, only breathing steadily and rhythmically.

Looking at the young man's sleeping face, Yuyan sighed.

She couldn't understand her own contradictory state of mind...

If Yuyan weren't carrying such a burden of clan vengeance, she might be willing to try dating Yino, as she wouldn't need to worry about involving him in her future.

But conversely, if not for her clan's extermination in her childhood, which led to Yuyan's current solitary state, she might not have allowed Yino to take such liberties. If Yuyan had a complete family, she would need to consider her clan's interests and public opinion, and wouldn't easily date male disciples outside, creating complications...

So contradictory.

Yuyan now had nothing left, and in this world, having met such an exceptional young man, naturally wanted to take a chance before facing her final destiny. She wanted to date like an ordinary girl, at least experiencing it before facing death with equanimity.

But if it was destined to end in tragedy, why should Yuyan waste Yino's time now?

"Father, Mother..."

"Tell me, should I let my selfish desires lead me to be with Yino...?"

"I have never liked a man before... and doesn't know if these hesitant feelings count as true affection. Perhaps my experiences with Yino are too brief, unlike my youthful romance as childhood sweethearts through life and death... Perhaps this isn't love, but just me softening from persistent persuasion, because Yino is handsome, gentle in nature, repeatedly establishing merit for the righteous path, brave and responsible like Father was in his youth, Mother, and he keeps pursuing me..."

"Such an ambitious young man, if you were alive, Mother, would you admire him too?"

In the quiet darkness of the small room, Yuyan sat alone at the head of the bed, hugging her knees, her cold and dim beautiful eyes faintly reflecting starlight.

But just as Yuyan hesitated, the young man at her leg turned in his sleep and embraced her white silk leg—

"Is he having a wet dream again?"

Yuyan looked down, not pulling away, just quietly watching the young man hugging her leg in sleep.

The more she looked, the more pleasing he seemed...

Though Yuyan had resolved to bear her vengeance and live in solitude, heaven had unexpectedly blessed her with an almost perfect junior.

Even...

Yuyan no longer considered being a little pervert a flaw.

Spending each day with Yino, Yuyan had been influenced to occasionally indulge in fantasies.

"Forget it, I'll just continue reading tonight..."

After countless thoughts, Yuyan was left feeling empty.

She now barely minded letting Yino hug her body while sleeping, thinking that if she feared a relationship would burden Yino's future, she might as well let him touch her for relief while they were still just senior and junior disciples. After all, the physical body meant little to Yuyan—it couldn't be brought into life nor taken into death—so giving Yino some joy could be an opportunity for Yuyan to experience life without responsibility.

"By the way..."

"Does the Celestial Medicine Temple really have such strange detoxification positions?"

While pondering, Yuyan found strange illustrations in the later pages of the evil-dispelling manual.

If she wasn't mistaken, these diagrams and text descriptions clearly resembled dual cultivation techniques, along with various positions and methods for expelling internal evil energy.

This was truly convenient timing...

Yuyan had just been fantasizing about Yino embracing her.

Within minutes, she had discovered similar positions and formal instructions in the book.

"But..."

"Aren't these too extreme for Yino, a bit too early...?"

"Why would a righteous sect like the Celestial Medicine Temple have techniques in its later pages resembling Western Region dual cultivation, with such bizarre cultivation positions...?"

"Hmm... 'Energy-Condensed Breast Milk'?"

"'Take internally to supplement energy and cleanse evil...'"

"This seems worth trying, it doesn't seem difficult. I'll see if it has any effect when Yino drinks it tomorrow morning."
