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

Chapter 31

When Jiang Chen arrived at Elixir Peak, the whole place was in chaos.

Shock, screams, and terror filled the air, one after another.

Many disciples were fleeing down the mountain in panic.

Female disciples clutched their clothes with tears in their eyes. Male disciples acted strangely, cursing loudly while clutching their groins as they ran.

During this time, Jiang Chen also heard the pitiful cries of some spiritual beasts and birds.

Whistling with his hands behind his head, he leisurely walked towards the upper reaches of Elixir Peak.

On any other day, his presence at the foot of the mountain would have drawn attention and word would have quickly spread throughout Elixir Peak. But today, everyone was too busy running away to notice the ‘brave soul’ dared to run up the mountain.

Soon, Jiang Chen reached his destination.

The upper peak was where the Elixir Peak disciples, elders, and the pill rooms were located, usually bustling with people and fragrant with the scent of pills.

At first glance, everything was a mess.

Ancient trees had been uprooted and lay on the ground, leaves scattered, branches broken, and the trunks bore deep holes.

The stone tiles on the ground were pockmarked with holes of various sizes and depths as if they had been pounded into.

Birds and beasts were fleeing in all directions, all of them plucked of feathers or fur.

Wherever his gaze fell, he could see puddles of yellow liquid emitting a pungent stench, presumably from those who had been scared into wetting themselves.

Jiang Chen always thought of himself as someone who had seen a lot, but even he had to admit defeat at this scene and could only exclaim in admiration, “Awesome!”

The perfect quality Heart-Devouring Soul-Bewitching Pill could make people lose the distinction between humans and animals, but that didn’t include everything else.

This indirectly proved that perhaps Ma Wu have harbored such thoughts.

Jiang Chen continued forward.

“Don’t come any closer!”

“Help! Someone save me, I’m just here to deliver herbs!”

“Elder Ma, calm down! Look carefully, I’m a man!”

“Ma Wu! This is outrageous, put down my sword!”

“Even the sword scabbard won’t do!”

Cries of alarm and disbelief came from ahead.

Jiang Chen quickened his pace.

Soon, he caught sight of Ma Wu, who was holding onto a sword scabbard with a look of enjoyment on his face and refusing to let go.

“Is that even possible?!”

Jiang Chen was dumbfounded.

His worldview was refreshed once again!

Perhaps because the scene was too bizarre, the several Hall of Enforcement disciples surrounding Ma Wu were also speechless!

An old woman and a male disciple from Elixir Peak saw their chance to slip away.

But just as they were getting up from the ground, a burst of aura unique to Core Formation cultivators erupted from Ma Wu, pressing the two back down firmly.

Seeing Ma Wu drop his scabbard and walk towards them with a strange laugh, the male disciple from Elixir Peak cried for help, “Aren’t you guys from the Hall of Enforcement? Why aren’t you saving me? This is the tenth time already!!”

Hearing this, the disciples of the Hall of Enforcement were in a dilemma.

It wasn’t that they didn’t want to save him. They simply couldn’t!

They had just joined the Hall of Enforcement and were only at the Core Formation Initial Formation stage of cultivation, having just begun to learn the Way of the Sword.

Ma Wu was an elder of Elixir Peak, at least at the Human Origin stage. Now, his pill fire was running wild and he had lost his mind.

If they couldn’t defeat him…

“Ugh!”

One of the Hall of Enforcement disciples glanced at his own scabbard on the ground and swallowed hard.

“Jiang Chen? Eldest Senior Brother of the Ninth Peak? Please save me, I’m willing to be your servant.”

The Elixir Peak disciple pleaded with Jiang Chen again.

Jiang Chen?

Upon hearing this, the disciples of the Hall of Enforcement instantly became alert.

Due to the shocking scene just before, they had only now noticed an additional black figure among them!

“Jiang Chen, what are you here for?”

A disciple from the Hall of Enforcement questioned.

“To watch the show.”

“…”

Jiang Chen replied instantly.

Everyone was speechless.

In an instant, the disciples of the Hall of Enforcement’s eyes lit up.

Although Jiang Chen’s behavior was questionable, they still recognized his talent for cultivation. Even though he was only at the Core Formation Initial Formation stage, if he really took action, just using the treasures from the Jiang family could be enough to smash Ma Wu to death!

In other words. From the current perspective, Jiang Chen was the only one who could stop Ma Wu’s ‘rampage’!

“Senior Brother, Ma Wu has gone mad. Please take action and save Elixir Peak.”

The leading disciple of the Hall of Enforcement said.

“No rush. Doesn’t Elixir Peak have other elders?”

Jiang Chen shook his head.

“It’s urgent! Very urgent!”

The Hall of Enforcement disciple continued, “The cultivation levels of the other elders of Elixir Peak are all on par with Ma Wu. These elders are worried about the consequences if they fail… if you know what I mean.”

In other words, they all ran away?

But this was also within Jiang Chen’s expectations.

After shrugging his shoulders, Jiang Chen still refused, “How could I lay hands on an elder of a peak? Who in the Jiuyan Sect doesn’t know that I, Jiang Chen, am the most respectful towards teachers and the Dao?!”

Shameless!

Everyone thought the same thing in their hearts.

“What’s with those looks? Should I leave then?”

Jiang Chen’s expression became stern.

“Don’t go!”

The leading disciple of the Hall of Enforcement said, “In extraordinary times, extraordinary measures are needed. Besides, I’m not asking you to kill Ma Wu, just to capture him. Ma Wu is one of the few sixth-grade pill refiner in the Jiuyan Sect, so he can’t die.”

He can’t die?

Jiang Chen sneered inwardly!

As expected, these so-called ‘righteous’ people of the Jiuyan Sect only ever focused on him!

Seeing the Hall of Enforcement disciple about to persuade further, Jiang Chen waved his hand to interrupt.

“Enough! I’m not saying it’s impossible for me to take action, but well…”

“But what?”

Disciples from the Hall of Enforcement pressed for answers.

“Kneel down and beg me!”

【Host’s actions conform to the villain’s character setting, reward: Ancient Swordsmanship, First Form: Skybreaker】

As these words were spoken, the faces of the disciples from the Hall of Enforcement darkened instantly!

Could they really kneel and beg Jiang Chen?

They represented the sect’s rules, and Jiang Chen was the epitome of a sect’s disgrace.

It was like black and white or water and fire. How could they possibly kneel to him?

“Judging by the time, the Sect Master should have been informed and is on his way here. What do you think will be the punishment when he arrives and finds that the disciples of the Hall of Enforcement, out of concern for their own safety, have allowed Ma Wu to run amok?”

Jiang Chen said with a sinister smile.

The disciples were startled after hearing this.

According to the sect’s rules, they would at least be expelled from the Hall of Enforcement!

“As everyone knows, the Hall of Enforcement is currently managed by Li Fadu. What will you face if you cause him to lose face in front of the Sect Master?”

Jiang Chen asked.

The disciples knew the answer all too well.

The Sect Master had the intention of promoting Li Fadu, allowing him to become the hall master of the Hall of Enforcement, which is why he delegated authority.

If Li Fadu lost face in front of the Sect Master, it meant losing that possibility.

Would he let them off easily then?

“With such a big incident at Elixir Peak and Ma Wu going mad, who do you think should take the blame?”

Jiang Chen asked again.

At these words, the disciples of the Hall of Enforcement sensed trouble.

Clearly, they had been negligent in their duties, prioritizing their own safety, and they were definitely the best candidates to take the blame!

“Please, Senior Brother, take action!”

After weighing the pros and cons, the disciples finally knelt down in unison.

Jiang Chen smiled in satisfaction.

Glancing at the distant main peak, he walked coldly towards Ma Wu.

At this moment, Ma Wu is still immersed in his own world, completely unaware that his life is in grave danger.

“Ma Wu, it’s time to settle our score.”

Holding the Flame Blood Dragon Sword, Jiang Chen’s voice was like that of a grim reaper.
