Coming of the Villain Boss!

"Xuan Ji, you better not disappoint me during the Nine Zigzag Mountain Array."

This was the sentence Yan Yin said to Ming Shu.

He didn't ask about the location of the blue-sea stone and didn't say any other useless things.

He just threw this sentence at her and disappeared from the room.

Ming Shu held the kitchen knife. She didn't know if he was really angry or if he was not angry at all. She couldn't tell from his tone…

She just wanted to quietly gain some Hatred Points. Why was it so difficult!

…

It was getting closer and closer to the day of the activation of the Nine Zigzag Mountain Array.

All the outer sect disciples started to cultivate more intensely.

Lin Jin and his sidekicks continued to cultivate immortality together.

Most of the time, Ming Shu would stay with them and occasionally go back to her room to sleep.

"Xuan Ji, where are you going? That area belongs to the Seven Peaks…!" Lin Jin shouted at Ming Shu.

"Go back to your cultivation." Ming Shu waved her hand.

Lin Jin watched as Ming Shu walked into the haze. The sky started to darken.

He was not very worried. She would always walk around the area to look for food and he would follow her sometimes too.

Lin Jin went back and continued his cultivation with his sidekicks. However, the next day, he realized that Ming Shu had not returned.

The last few times she left, she would always appear the next morning and wait for him to feed her.

But she didn't come back today…

Lin Jin waited on the mountain for a while. Ming Shu still did not appear by the afternoon.

Lin Jin started to worry. He traced his footsteps from yesterday night and reached the border of the Seven Peaks. He couldn't move forward anymore.

Lin Jin didn't know if Ming Shu went in or if she walked around them. He ordered the rest of the people to split up and find her.

"No one."

"I didn't see anyone."

"I couldn't find her."

They searched all the places that Ming Shu usually went to but still couldn't find her.

"What are you all looking for?"

A blue shadow stepped out of the forest. His posture was casual and had a hint of laziness to it as if he was taking a stroll here.

The silver mask on his face was shining really brightly as though there were diamonds mosaiced on it.

The light reflected in his eyes like stars.

"Master…" Lin Jin's heart skipped a bit and he instinctively lowered his head.

They had met once and he heard from someone that this was Master Yan Yin from the Lihun Peak.

Yan Yin asked then again nicely, "What are you all looking for?"

Lin Jin didn't dare to raise his head, but he could feel the cold glare that the person opposite was giving him. He was too scared to lie to him.

Lin Jin swallowed worriedly. "Xuan Ji… Xuan Ji disappeared. We are looking for her."

He didn't provoke this master before, right?

"This area belongs to the Seven Peaks. She is just an outer sect disciple. What is she doing here?"

Outer sect disciple was a nicer way of putting it. If you wanted to put it in a not-so-nice way, she was just a servant disciple.

What was a servant disciple trying to do by coming so near the Seven Peaks?

Lin Jin read Yan Yin's sentence this way. His heart was pumping so fast it could almost jump out. "Master… Xuan Ji was cultivating nearby. I parted with her yesterday night and she wasn't back by this morning. That's why I came to look for her."

There was nothing wrong with this reason, right…

"She can cultivate?"

Lin Jin didn't know what Yan Yin was trying to say. He couldn't detect any emotions from his tone and didn't dare to say anything.

Yan Yin looked at Lin Jin and waved his hands lazily. "You can go back. If I find her, I will ask her to return."

"Master…"

Yan Yin looked back.

There was nothing special about the gaze, but Lin Jin felt a shiver ran down his spine. He was getting a case of the cold sweats. He didn't dare to speak anymore and left with his sidekicks unwillingly.

Xuan Ji should be safe with Master around, right?

"She must be blind if she really likes such a person," Yan Yin muttered.

He used his magic arts and inspect the area around the Seven Peaks. There was no sign of Ming Shu.

Did she really enter the Seven Peaks?

Yan Yin couldn't believe it himself. But after remembering the fact that she would become the big boss in the future, he decided that she might have really entered that place.

In the end. Yan Yin found her near the Lingjian Peak.

He used magic arts and transported himself over.

The girl was squatting beside a clear stream and washing her hands. The stream reflected the lights and was sparkling. The lights fell on the girl's face and cast waves of light on her face.

In that instant, she looked like a fairy that fell from Heaven.

Her clothes were slightly messy and she looked like she'd been in a fight. However, this didn't affect her gentle and soft aura.

There was a corpse of an animal beside her. It looked like a spirit deer from the Seven Peaks…

Yan Yin didn't step out, and just stood in the shadows and watched her.

She finished washing her hands and started dragging the spirit deer out of the Seven Peaks slowly.

Yan Yin realized that she walked straight through the barriers of the Seven Peaks without alarming anyone and just left the Seven Peaks blatantly.

Yan Yin stood within the Seven Peaks and watched Ming Shu leave.

"I thought she was supposed to have psychological disorders, be bullied by others, and always be hungry and cold?"

This was different from the information he got!

Did I enter the wrong story?

He always saw her bullying other people. Who dared to bully her!

[The storyline is just for reference's sake. We have met many people who were different from the description in the stories. There is nothing strange about it.] The system was calmer.

A single story could have many different storylines. As long as the ending was okay, it was not a big issue.

As a system that had been through so much, what had it not seen? Be calm, be calm.

Yan Yin: "…"

The logic was there, but he still felt it was odd.

As for why he felt that way, he couldn't put a finger on it.

It was an instinct.

[Lord Nine, you should read more of the experiences collated by the department. I believe that you will become an expert at it soon.]

"Haha, will I need their experience?"

I am a genius.

I! Don't! Need! It!

[…] Sigh.

…

One month later…

The Nine Zigzag Mountain Array was activated.

Anyone could participate in the array formation as long as they had the courage.

The sect's aim was to be fair and impartial.

However, most of the outer sect disciple in the external division were servant disciples and didn't go through any foundation training. Even if they entered the Nine Zigzag Mountain Array, would they be able to come out alive?

The Nine Zigzag Mountain Array was easy to understand.

It was a mountain that had many arrays. The aim was not to destroy the arrays but to escape them.

They would enter from the bottom of the mountain and anyone that could reach the top of the mountain could enter the internal division.

Ming Shu participated.

All the servant disciples were surprised.

They didn't think that Ming Shu, who only had a three-spirit root, would be so courageous.

"Is she crazy?"

"She most probably is."

"I heard that she tried to secretly learn from the internal division but gave up after a while. She then disappeared for half a year and when she came back, she was either eating or sleeping. How is it that she still dares to participate in the Nine Zigzag Mountain Array?"

"She is good at fighting, but the Nine Zigzag Mountain Array requires magic arts, tsk tsk…"

Everyone could visualize the sad scene of Ming Shu being carried back.

Some people were waiting to laugh at her. Others sneered at her for overestimating herself.

Ming Shu kept her smile all the way and her senior brothers from the internal division who came to fetch her couldn't help but stare at her.

She appeared even more composed that the disciples from the external division. However…

The senior brothers from the internal division shook their heads. She had the courage but only had a three-spirit root. Also, she never trained before. It was almost impossible for her to pass through the Nine Zigzag Mountain Array.

Some people just had to try it out themselves before giving up.

As the only servant disciple that participated, Ming Shu was "happily" sent off by the crowd.
