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

Chapter 32

“Hehe… hehehe…”

Ma Wu kept letting out a strange laugh, his eyes fixated on the disciples of Elixir Peak with a pink light flickering in them.

Seeing Jiang Chen approaching with a sword, the disciples of Elixir Peak felt as if they had been pardoned and struggled to get up, fleeing desperately towards the distance.

The prey was escaping, so Ma Wu seemed displeased.

After exhaling a heavy breath, the fiery energy within his body formed into a serpent shape and lunged at the Elixir Peak disciples.

Jiang Chen had no intention of saving them, but the fire serpent also darted in his direction.

“Whoosh!”

With a swing of the Flame Blood Dragon Sword in his hand, a flash of blood light decapitated several fire serpents, dissipating them into the air.

Even in his maddened state, Ma Wu was taken aback by this.

The moment he saw Jiang Chen, drool flowed from the corner of his mouth as if he had seen a rare treasure, and he let out an even louder “hehe.”

Jiang Chen instantly got goosebumps.

The Flame Blood Dragon Sword swung again, its blade bursting with blood-red light. Under the drive of vital energy, a zhang-wide blood-colored Sword Qi shot out from the blade.

With a whoosh sound, the swiftly moving Sword Qi caused all the surrounding spirit swords to tremble. Wherever it passed, the air was sliced, stone bricks shattered, and a scorching aura emanated from the Sword Qi, instantly sweeping the area!

The Sword Qi enveloped the surrounding spiritual power and enhancing itself.

In just a moment, it expanded from one zhang to two, then three… By the time it reached Ma Wu, the Sword Qi was ten zhang wide!

“Way of the Sword—Minor Achievement, Sword Qi manifestation?!” exclaimed a disciple from the Hall of Enforcement upon seeing this.

Since Jiang Chen was a ‘special’ person of interest to the Hall of Enforcement, they were very familiar with his information.

Even the newest disciples knew that although Jiang Chen had exceptional talent, when his Core Formation was destroyed, his understanding of the Way of the Sword was merely at the Beginner level, having just obtained the Sword Heart!

But now, he had actually reached the Minor Achievement stage of the Way of the Sword and manifested Sword Qi?

Wasn’t that a bit too exaggerated?

Keep in mind that it had been less than a month since Jiang Chen’s Core Formation was destroyed!

To go directly from Way of the Sword Beginner to Minor Achievement in such a short time was something perhaps only those with special Way of the Sword physiques could achieve!

What was even more exaggerated was…

“Ordinary Sword Qi isn’t this exaggerated. If I’m not mistaken, that blood sword in Jiang Chen’s hand must be a superior grade spirit sword!” said the leading disciple of the Hall of Enforcement with envy.

The other disciples also coveted it.

That was a superior grade spirit sword! A spiritual weapon that only sword cultivators of the higher four realms could possess!

Elder Li Fadu of the Hall of Enforcement had been practicing the sword for many years, and he was only one step away from the higher realms, yet his spirit sword was merely high-grade!

“Tsk, tsk, worthy of being the young master of the Jiang Family, his wealth is indeed different”, another disciple from the Hall of Enforcement commented sourly.

As for Ma Wu, having lost his sanity, he did not show any sign of shock.

However, the blood-colored Sword Qi that was getting closer still instinctively made him feel a threat to his life!

No longer laughing crazily, all the pill fire within his body mixed with a hint of pinkish aura burst out after a mad roar and condensed into a fire snake as thick as an adult’s thigh, biting onto the Sword Qi.

But it was futile. The appearance of the fire snake did not hinder the blood-colored Sword Qi at all.

The next second.

“Sizzle—”

The fire snake was cut in half in its struggle, and in the blink of an eye, the blood-colored Sword Qi pierced through Ma Wu’s body!

“Ahh!!!”

Ma Wu screamed in horror.

His remaining left arm along with the left half of his body and left leg were directly severed!

Blood sprayed everywhere, turning the surrounding crimson.

Such an injury would have certainly resulted in the immediate death of a cultivator in the lower four realms.

However, a Core Formation cultivator could use the vital energy in their Core Formation to forcibly sustain their life.

Even so, Ma Wu still fell straight to the ground, no longer capable of any movement.

Seeing this, Jiang Chen walked forward with his sword, his expression stern and his cold voice echoing around, “A superior grade spirit sword is certainly not easy to control. Otherwise, with that strike just now, you would have surely died even if you were at the Human Origin level!”

“Hehe… hehehe…” Ma Wu continued to let out a strange laugh even with his breath as thin as a thread.

Jiang Chen shook his head, his gaze looking down from above.

With a slight tilt, he pressed the tip of the Flame Blood Dragon Sword against Ma Wu’s heart.

Sensing Jiang Chen’s intent to kill, the disciples of the Hall of Enforcement wanted to intervene, but none dared to speak up.

The reason was simple. The murderous aura emanating from Jiang Chen was terrifying to the bone!

The disciples feared that if they tried to stop him at this moment, Jiang Chen might turn his aggression towards them.

Jiang Chen slowly exerted force, and the Flame Blood Dragon Sword gradually pierced into Ma Wu’s chest.

The intense pain made it impossible for Ma Wu to laugh any longer.

Perhaps due to excessive blood loss or the weakening effect of the medicinal pill, a trace of clarity returned to his eyes.

“Jiang Chen?!” Ma Wu was horrified and filled with panic.

“How does it feel to be betrayed? Did you enjoy the pill?” Jiang Chen asked with narrowed eyes.

Upon hearing this, everything that had just happened flashed through Ma Wu’s mind.

He had thought that the Heart-Devouring Soul-Bewitching Pill Jiang Chen had given him was of inferior quality, as the perfect ones were extremely rare even in the upper domain.

But the result…Struggling to turn his head, Ma Wu looked not far behind him.

There lay a gruesomely unwatchable corpse, his young disciple. From the look of the death, it seemed the disciple had committed suicide after being unable to bear the humiliation.

“Jiang Chen! Do you even have any humanity?!” Ma Wu shouted with the last of his strength.

Humanity?

Jiang Chen shook his head.

He had always possessed it through nine cycles of reincarnation. Even in this life, determined to play the villain, he still had it.

However, he had none for people like Ma Wu, who aimed to eliminate him!

Indeed, to kill Ma Wu with the least collateral damage, Jiang Chen had indeed implicated many others.

But how many of them were truly innocent?

Through the repeated cycles of reincarnation, the pain they had inflicted on Jiang Chen out of their own dislike was undoubtedly many times greater than what they were suffering now!

Take, for example, Ma Wu’s young disciple.

For several lifetimes, this person had followed Ma Wu’s orders, repeatedly deceiving Jiang Chen into taking poisonous pills!

Even when exposed, he would only say, ‘My master forced me to do it!’

In previous lifetimes, Jiang Chen had not held it against him. After all, he saw that the young disciple was indeed involuntary, but after many lifetimes, he realized the crux of the matter.

The young disciple feared him and thus also wanted him dead.

“Each snowflake in an avalanche pleads not guilty. To be able to forgive even a few snowflakes… that is the greatest extent of my humanity.”

Jiang Chen murmured to himself.

“Jiang Chen! Stop it now!!”

A deep roar suddenly sounded from behind him.

To this, Jiang Chen turned a deaf ear.

With a cruel smile, he exerted force in his arm, and the blood sword fiercely plunged down!

“Pfftgh—”

The blood sword instantly pierced through Ma Wu’s heart, and blood sprayed out of his mouth.

Even in the last moment of his life, Ma Wu still cursed: “You… you will not die a good death!”

‘Indeed, I will not die a good death.’

‘After all, I have already died like this nine times.’

While murmuring to himself, Jiang Chen pulled out the blood sword, raised his hand to wipe the blood splattered on his cheek, and then flashed a grin.

Seeing this scene, the disciples of the Hall of Enforcement felt a tingling sensation on their scalps.

At the same time.

Li Fadu appeared, questioning coldly: “Didn’t you hear me when I told you to stop just now?!”

“Ah, sorry.”

Jiang Chen squinted and smiled: “I really can’t hear the words of an idiot.”
