After Defying the Villain’s Fate for Nine Lifetimes, the Heroines Turn Mad!

Chapter 27

“Clang—”

The twin machetes fell from his hands, dropping to the ground.

He wiped the tears from his cheeks and cried out, “Eldest Senior Brother!”

After that, Lin Mubai opened his arms and ran straight towards him.

Jiang Chen’s scalp tingled after seeing this.

He hadn’t expected that the ‘savage’ before him was actually Lin Mubai!

Although there were rumors that Lin Mubai had burned thousands of books and achieved Earthly Origin in one night, and that he had fallen into madness, Jiang Chen didn’t believe them.

After all, he knew better than anyone how much Lin Mubai valued books and how resilient his nature was.

But at this moment, he had no choice but to believe.

Since the madness was real, it naturally followed that Lin Mubai’s overnight achievement of Earthly Origin was also true.

In an instant, Jiang Chen decided…

To retreat!

He had no desire to deal with a madman.

What if Lin Mubai went crazy and attacked him?

Not that he was scared, but why should he fight a madman?

He wasn’t crazy!

Moreover, with Jiang Lianyue’s madness before and Lin Mubai’s madness after, Jiang Chen felt that this kind of madness might be contagious!

With a “swoosh,” Jiang Chen quickly turned and sprinted away.

“Eldest Senior Brother, wait for me!”

Lin Mubai’s shout came from behind, to which Jiang Chen disdainfully curled his lip.

Only a fool would play with a madman!

As he ran, he found himself being overtaken by a figure—it was Zhang Hu, who was also running for his life at full speed!

Clearly frightened by Lin Mubai, Zhang Hu’s potential was unleashed, and his speed even surpassed his own cultivation level!

“Eldest Senior Brother, listen to me…”

Lin Mubai’s voice rang out again.

Listen my foot!

Cursing inwardly, Jiang Chen sped up, reached forward, and grabbed Zhang Hu by the collar.

Zhang Hu was bewildered.

“Dare to run ahead of me? Ahaha, go back!”

Jiang Chen gathered his vital energy in his arm and threw the happily running Zhang Hu back towards Lin Mubai while laughing.

【Host’s actions conform to the villain’s character setting, reward: Heart-Devouring Soul-Bewitching Pill!】

Coincidentally, the rapidly flying Zhang Hu crashed precisely into Lin Mubai’s arms, who instinctively caught him.

Both stood still, looking at each other.

Lin Mubai: “…”

Zhang Hu: “…”

After a brief pause, Zhang Hu swallowed hard and awkwardly smiled, “Second Senior Brother, how about you put me down and I run again?”

“Courting death!!”

Enraged, Lin Mubai threw Zhang Hu to the ground and started pummeling him with punches.

Moments later, Zhang Hu lay on the ground, barely alive, and Lin Mubai, having vented his anger, looked up only to find that Jiang Chen had long disappeared.

“…Sigh.”

Lin Mubai let out a long sigh with a somber expression.

Jiang Chen had run away too fast, making him feel as if his Eldest Senior Brother was unwilling to forgive him.

Memories of a thousand years across nine lifetimes surfaced in his mind, and he felt it was to be expected.

After all, his Eldest Senior Brother, Jiang Chen had shouldered everything alone!

With this thought, Lin Mubai kicked Zhang Hu.

“Ah!”

Zhang Hu screamed in agony.

Hearing this, Lin Mubai frowned and decided to deliver a few more kicks.

There was no particular reason. He simply felt disgruntled.

……

Half an hour later, Lin Mubai appeared at the foot of Elixir Peak.

He was still dressed like a ‘savage’, carrying two machetes on his back.

These two machetes, he had specially visited the Weapon Peak earlier that day and robbed them from the Weapon Peak’s armory.

Though unnamed and unremarkable in appearance, both were superior-grade spiritual weapons.

Such level of spiritual weapons, even for a sect as well-endowed as the Jiuyan Sect, were only entitled to be owned by true disciples of each peak and senior elders who were high in the hierarchy, and they required a considerable amount of merit to be exchanged.

Had Xiao Hongyi not appeared in time during Lin Mubai’s robbery to negotiate with Weapon Peak’s Peak Master and exchange them for equivalent-level spiritual weapons, Lin Mubai wouldn’t have been able to seize them.

And Lin Mubai had only one purpose for coming here.

To kill Ma Wu!!

Only by doing so could he alleviate his guilt and vent Jiang Chen’s anger!

He had inquired that Ma Wu had awakened from his coma, but due to the massacre of the Ma family, the Hall of Enforcement feared Jiang Chen would strike again, so they took strict measures to protect Ma Wu.

Lin Mubai was well-regarded by the disciples of both Elixir Peak and the Hall of Enforcement.

Although these people didn’t understand why Lin Mubai was dressed like this today, they did not prevent him from entering the peak.

After all, it was normal for disciples from other peaks to come to Elixir Peak to refine or exchange pills.

In the first place, the only person the disciples of the Hall of Enforcement were on guard against was Jiang Chen alone.

Upon entering Elixir Peak, Lin Mubai, familiar with the place, quickly arrived at the residence of Elder Ma Wu.

“Mubai, why are you dressed like this?”

“…”

Li Fadu said at the door in surprise.

Lin Mubai remained silent.

Over the course of nine cycles of reincarnation spanning a thousand years, this Li Fadu also made things difficult for Jiang Chen multiple times.

He didn’t act immediately because he knew he was no match.

Seeing that Lin Mubai did not respond, Li Fadu’s confusion deepened.

“Is it you, Nephew Lin? Please, come in quickly.”

Ma Wu’s voice called out from inside the room.

Hearing this, Lin Mubai strode in.

Li Fadu thought for a moment but did not stop him.

In the past, because both Lin Mubai and Ma Wu were extremely angry about Jiang Chen’s actions, the two had a good relationship and often visited each other.

Now that the Ma family had been slaughtered and Ma Wu had just woken up from a coma, it seemed reasonable for Lin Mubai to come and visit.

However, Li Fadu could never have imagined.

After Lin Mubai entered the room, as Ma Wu had just risen from his bed…

“Die!!”

Lin Mubai shouted ferociously and immediately swung his twin machetes at Ma Wu’s head, unleashing several strikes!

“Lin Mubai! Have you gone mad?!” Li Fadu exclaimed in shock.

Seeing that Ma Wu’s life was in danger, he unsheathed the ancient sword on his back with his vital energy and instantly unleashed several Sword Qi strikes!

Although he didn’t understand the situation, Li Fadu had always had a good impression of Lin Mubai.

Therefore, although the Sword Qi was fierce, it ultimately only struck Lin Mubai’s machetes, narrowly saving Ma Wu’s life by a hair’s breadth.

“Clang—”

Impacted by the Sword Qi, the machetes emitted a piercing tremor.

The peak cultivation of Heavenly Origin was something Lin Mubai couldn’t withstand, and the impact caused by the Sword Qi forced him to retreat several steps in an instant!

“Master!” Lin Mubai suddenly looked towards the door and shouted loudly.

Xiao Hongyi is here?

Li Fadu was startled and turned his head to look as well.

But to his surprise, there was nothing there, absolutely empty!

“Not good!”

Li Fadu guessed what was happening and exclaimed in shock.

He quickly turned his head.

Sure enough, he saw Lin Mubai once again raising his twin machetes, with vital energy converging upon them.

As he swung the machetes, several blade shadows appeared, their cold light piercing to the eye!

At first glance, Lin Mubai’s blade technique seemed crude, but the intense killing intent, coupled with the crazy surge of vital energy, also displayed the strength of the Earthly Origin realm to its fullest!

Li Fadu felt it might be too late, but he had to try.

“Ha!”

With a loud shout, his peak Heavenly Origin aura pressed toward Lin Mubai like a tsunami.

At the same time, he swung his sword again, and a Sword Qi a zhang wide reappeared.

The overwhelming aura hit Lin Mubai, causing him to stagger.

Facing the rapidly approaching Sword Qi, he had no intention of dodging and still gritted his teeth to swing down his blade.

“Are you insane!? You’re willing to be seriously injured just to kill someone?”

Li Fadu was furious.

Lin Mubai possessed the Innate Dao Bone, and the fact that he had reached Earthly Origin in one night was already known by the sect.

Li Fadu certainly did not want to harm the sect’s prodigy with his own hands, so he had to strike with another sword move, faster this time, instantly neutralizing the previous Sword Qi.

But as a result.

“Ah! My hand!!”

As the blade light fell, Ma Wu clutched his bloody right shoulder while screaming in pain.

Li Fadu let out a long sigh of relief.

Although Ma Wu had lost an arm, it was good as long as he wasn’t dead.

Seeing Lin Mubai about to make another move, he quickly rushed in to stand in front of Ma Wu and sternly rebuked him.

“Lin Mubai! Do you really think I wouldn’t dare to kill you?!”

Lin Mubai did not reply but gripped his twin machetes tighter.

But the next moment, he retracted his aura and said towards the door: “Master…”

“You’re so stubborn! Still want to deceive me?!”

Li Fadu grew even angrier.

As soon as his words fell, a red figure floated in.
