In Ye Wu's voice, there was a chilling coldness, making those two disciples tremble.
One of them was so frightened that he collapsed directly to the ground.
The other stammered, "Ye... Senior Sister Ye! Previously, Ling Jue often came too! And he, he only stayed in the medicinal garden for a stick of incense time, how could he know there was a Nine-grade Xuan Ginseng here!"
Not only did Ling Jue come, but every time he came, Ye Wu would eagerly pick the freshly matured spiritual medicines and implore him to take them!
Wasn't this a routine?
This time Ling Jue suddenly came over, and they initially didn't let him in.
But Ling Jue threatened a few words, saying if he wasn't let in, Ye Wu should have someone else guard the medicinal garden!
The reward for this task was high, and the work was easy, they absolutely couldn't bear to let someone else take it.
If it were in the past, without Ye Wu accompanying them, they wouldn't dare let Ling Jue in rashly.
But this time, a batch of mature spiritual medicines in the garden had just been picked, and there wasn't anything rare.
The two were so scared by Ling Jue's threats that they allowed him in.
Ling Jue didn't stay long in the garden, just a stick of incense time, before hurriedly leaving.
The two went back and checked, the garden didn't have anything unusual, so they let the matter drop!
Who could have thought.
Ye Wu had actually buried a Nine-grade Xuan Ginseng there.
And Ling Jue, in such a short time, discovered it and even dug it up!
This, this is too coincidental!
The two disciples trembled in fear.
Anger surged in Ye Wu's heart!
In the original story.
This Nine-grade Xuan Ginseng was given by the female supporting character to Ling Jue, who then used it for the female lead.
This time.
She never intended to give the ginseng to Ling Jue.
And yet he came and stole it himself!
There's a problem here!
How did Ling Jue know there was a Nine-grade Xuan Ginseng buried in the garden?
To avoid unexpected occurrences, she didn't tell anyone about it, not even her mother knew where she had buried the ginseng!
And Ling Jue?
His timing was impeccably right!
There weren't any matured spiritual medicines in the garden, so his special visit was clearly for the ginseng, wasn't it?
Could he actually predict it?
A glint of coldness flashed in Ye Wu's eyes.
Or perhaps.
The inertia of the plot is just that hard to change?
Could it be.
All her efforts were in vain, in the end, the story would return to its original course?
No!
Ye Wu has never believed in fate.
If becoming a female supporting character, trampled under the female lead's feet, is her destiny.
Then.
She will defy this damned fate!
"Senior Sister Ye, we..." The two disciples trembled slightly.
Ye Wu gave them a cold look: "Stay here properly, I'll come to settle accounts with you later!"
Right now.
Compared to punishing these two disciples.
She has more important things to do!
In the original storyline, the female supporting character was just a bootlicker of one of the male leads, her narrative presence was insignificant.
The time Ye Wu transmigrated over was when the female supporting character was digging out Fire Nether scales to gift Ling Jue.
This was a painful memory for Fire Nether.
Yet, in the book, all the female supporting character's acts of flattery were casually summarized in just one or two sentences.
Ye Wu had no clue which storyline node this digging scales part occurred in.
But now.
She knew.
Ling Jue stealing the Nine-grade Xuan Ginseng proves that it's now the point in the story where Lin Huanhuan goes mad, and Ling Jue saves her using the ginseng!
Xuan Ginseng is a sacred healing item. According to the plot, Ling Jue prepared many other rare herbs to concoct a potion with the ginseng to cure Lin Huanhuan.
Then.
The book had lengthy ambiguous descriptions.
Lin Huanhuan complained about the potion's bitterness, playfully refusing it.
Ling Jue, having no other way, fed it to her with his mouth.
These entangling ambiguities spanned two pages in the book.
Thinking of this.
Ye Wu couldn't help but let out a cold laugh.
Ling Jue left merely an hour ago.
In the book, Lin Huanhuan was in Ling Jue's cave abode until dawn the next day.
So now.
Undoubtedly, some explicit scenes are being enacted in Ling Jue's cave abode.
In the original book.
Although Lin Huanhuan had a large harem, these men were always hidden in the background, and Lin Huanhuan on the surface was a pure, sweet little junior sister.
Right up to the book's conclusion.
The female supporting character's indignant accusations of Lin Huanhuan's shamelessness were never believed by anyone!
If that's the case!
This time, she'll show everyone well.
Just how "pure and innocent" this little junior sister really is!
Ye Wu grabbed Qingxuan and directly headed towards the Cangming Sword Sect!
The Nine-grade Xuan Ginseng should not have been consumed by Lin Huanhuan yet; if she rushes there now, she might still be in time!
Her belongings are not so easily taken!
"The Nine-grade Xuan Ginseng should have been taken by Ling Jue," Ye Wu said, "I'm going now to take it back."
Qingxuan merely glanced at her calmly.
Ye Wu frowned, "You don't believe me?"
Qingxuan said indifferently, "If you didn't tell him, how would Ling Jue know where the ginseng is? Ye Wu, stop pretending."
He... no longer harbors any hope, nor will he ever believe Ye Wu again.
"That part puzzles me too," Ye Wu said, "Once I see him, I'll find out what's going on."
Qingxuan simply lowered his gaze, saying nothing.
Ye Wu couldn't be bothered to explain.
The most urgent thing was to retrieve the item; everything else could wait.
Ye Wu, on her way to the Cangming Sword Sect, sent a message to Ye Liuyun: "Mother, Ling Jue stole my Nine-grade Xuan Ginseng."
Ye Liuyun paused for a moment, then quickly replied, "Are you sure he stole it, and it's not that you gave it to him?"
Ye Wu was silent for a moment, then said through gritted teeth, "Of course! I'm heading to the Cangming Sword Sect now! He snatched away such a high-level treasure, destroying his cave abode shouldn't be too much, right?"
Ye Wu spoke with a voice full of an icy murderous intent!
Ye Liuyun also realized quickly; she gave a cold chuckle, "Go cause a scene! It's perfect; I'll also go and ask those people from the Cangming Sword Sect how they educated such shameless disciples!"
With Ye Liuyun's words.
Ye Wu was completely at ease!
Lin Huanhuan and Ling Jue are the female and male leads; killing them directly might be quite difficult.
But.
Causing a ruckus and tearing off their masks would be a piece of cake!
The sword cultivators of the Cangming Sword Sect, all preaching the supremacy of Heartless Dao, saying the Joy Sect could not achieve the great Dao with furnaces.
This time.
She'll let these people see for themselves what kind of people their respected senior brother and beloved junior sister truly are!
Ye Wu soon arrived at the territory of the Cangming Sword Sect!
Cangming Sword Sect, Joy Sect, and the neighboring Carefree Sect share this mountain range, basically neighbors.
Although the Three Sects privately looked down on each other, they always maintained harmony on the surface.
Three Sects Disciples frequently interacted, Ye Wu brought Qingxuan straight through without any hindrance.
"Look quickly! Ye Wu is here!"
"Tsk tsk, coming to find senior brother again?"
"She ultimately couldn't resist."
"This is the longest she's held out so far."
Upon seeing Ye Wu, the disciples of the Cangming Sword Sect couldn't help but watch the spectacle.
