After Reincarnating as the Villain in a Novel, All the Female Leads Went Off Script - Chapter 2:

Chapter 2:

“Who did you say sent it?”

Su Mu was extremely surprised.

“It was Miss Su Hanying,” Uncle Mo replied, bowing respectfully.

“Su Hanying? She would send me a gift? … Is this thing safe?”

Su Mu suddenly looked at the storage ring in his hand with intense caution, as if he wanted to throw it as far away as possible.

Su Hanying was one of the female leads in the original novel and could be considered Su Mu’s sister. However, they were not related by blood. She was the orphan of Su Ningye’s sworn brother and had been adopted by Su Ningye.

A long time ago, Su Hanying had always been cultivated as the future heir of the Su Clan, until Su Mu was born.

The relationship between the two had never been good, especially after Su Mu fell for Qing Jingrou. It became even worse, to the point where they could come to blows just by meeting.

Su Hanying spent most of the year outside the clan, and on the rare occasions she returned, the look she gave Su Mu was filled with nothing but disdain and disgust.

The meaning was obvious. If a brainless simp like you becomes the patriarch in the future, the Su Clan will be finished.

Because of this, Su Mu was absolutely certain of one thing.

Su Hanying would never send him a gift.

“Isn’t this a bit strange?”

He frowned and pondered.

Was there such a plotline in the original novel?

Or did she have a new plan, trying to curry favor with Su Ningye this way and reclaim the right of inheritance?

But unless she directly killed Su Mu, nothing she did would matter. His father had only one son.

So what was the reason?

“No matter how I look at it, this feels like a weasel paying New Year’s respects to a chicken…” Su Mu muttered to himself.

He sent his divine sense into the storage ring. Inside, there was only one item. A golden halberd shining with dazzling light.

A sacred artifact. And a growth-type one at that.

“Damn!”

Even Su Mu was shocked.

Such a huge gift. What exactly was Su Hanying trying to do?

He took out the golden halberd and gave it a casual swing. It felt as light as nothing, with Dao rhythms flowing through it. It was indeed a fine weapon.

Moreover, because it was a growth-type sacred artifact, it automatically adapted to Su Mu’s current cultivation, allowing him to unleash its maximum power without the slightest burden.

“Oh, right!”

Uncle Mo suddenly seemed to remember something.

“Miss Hanying said that after some time, she will return to the clan. She hopes that you can attend her welcome banquet.”

“What? Me going? Did she take the wrong medicine? Or is she…”

Su Mu raised a hand and pointed at his own head.

“Has she stayed too long on the Desolate Prison Battlefield and fried her brain? Could it be that she wants to trick me into going there just to beat me up?”

Uncle Mo: …

It had to be said that the Young Master was actually a very good person. He was filial to elders, loyal to brothers, and even treated servants like them quite well.

Only when facing “Miss Hanying” did he seem like a completely different person.

“Could it be… that Miss Hanying disciplined the Young Master too harshly when he was young, causing a rebellious mindset?”

Uncle Mo speculated.

The golden halberd was extremely well-suited to him and clearly chosen with great care, yet Su Mu only felt that it was troublesome.

This part did not exist in the original novel. He was a seasoned actor. There was no way he remembered wrong.

Before he could ask the system about it, a massive rumbling sound suddenly came from nearby.

Boom!!!

An equally luxurious flying boat descended. From far away, Su Mu saw a familiar figure flying toward him.

“Well, well, isn’t this our Young Master Su? You’re also coming to the Holy Land to cultivate? Don’t tell me it’s really all for your Qing Jingrou?”

A tall young man landed steadily and bumped Su Mu on the shoulder.

“Get lost…”

Su Mu frowned, curled his lips, and turned around to give a thumbs-down gesture.

Luo Haicheng, the first heir of the Immortal Luo Clan, Su Mu’s best brother. Their relationship was so close it was unimaginable.

When they were kids, they had even shared the same pair of split-crotch pants. Although Luo Haicheng was not as “brainless” as Su Mu, no matter what Su Mu wanted to do, Luo Haicheng would fully support him.

If Su Mu killed someone, he would set fires.

If Su Mu went bankrupt, he would sell—

No, that was going too far.

Unfortunately, in the original novel, his later fate was not good either. Although Su Mu had not seen the final ending of the novel, since the author was still updating when he transmigrated, based on the plotlines he had already read…

Before long, the protagonist Chen Shu would scheme and kill the “early-stage villain” Su Mu in the Lightless Forbidden Land. That way, Qing Jingrou would have no one by her side except him.

The sudden disappearance of his good brother left Luo Haicheng in disbelief. In order to investigate the truth, he used every means possible, even resorting to ruthless methods.

Because of this, he lost his status as the first heir and was expelled by the Luo Clan.

Sadly, under the influence of Chen Shu’s protagonist halo, not only did the investigation yield no results, but Luo Haicheng himself ended up with his family destroyed, his cultivation crippled, and finally died miserably in the wilderness.

The one who killed him was even his own biological sister, who was also one of Chen Shu’s harem members.

“Sigh…”

Su Mu let out a sigh and patted Luo Haicheng on the shoulder.

“What’s wrong? You don’t look very happy.”

Luo Haicheng was a bit puzzled. In the past, if he said “your Qing Jingrou,” Su Mu would definitely be overjoyed.

What was going on today?

Did his great uncle come?

“From now on, only I’m allowed to say the name Qing Jingrou. Also, remember to treat your sister better.”

Luo Haicheng: ???

Su Mu had not forgotten his identity as a simp and constantly paid attention to self-discipline.

“We’ve been brothers for so many years and I can’t even say her name? And what do you mean about my sister? You’re not thinking about her, are you?”

Luo Haicheng’s expression shifted between suspicion and shock.

Actually, even if Su Mu had feelings for his sister, Luo Haicheng would only laugh and play matchmaker. It was just that Su Mu’s attitude today was too strange, making him confused.

“Something happened? Say it. Your brother will help you.”

Seeing how loyal the other party was, Su Mu could only feel regret.

After all, Luo Haicheng was not a bad person. His talent, temperament, and looks were all excellent. It was just that because of Su Mu, he offended the protagonist and ended up with a tragic fate.

“If you stay a bit farther away from me, then nothing will happen.”

Su Mu said half-jokingly. He truly hoped the other party would stay away from him, so he would not get implicated.

This was not the first time he had tried to remind him.

“Something really happened?”

Luo Haicheng frowned, sensing something off.

He was about to continue speaking when Su Mu raised his hand to interrupt him.

“I’m not talking anymore. Qing Jingrou is here.” As he spoke, Su Mu’s entire expression lit up.

Luo Haicheng: …

With a rumbling sound, the Qing Clan’s flying boat slowly descended.

The Qing Clan was not one of the Ten Great Immortal Clans, but a rising force. To a large extent, it benefited from Su Mu’s support, and the scale of its flying boat could not compare to those of the Su Clan and the Luo Clan.

A graceful figure slowly descended.

Qing Jingrou had arrived.

At this point, the Disciple Acceptance Ceremony was about to begin, and many people had already gathered around. In an instant, everyone’s attention was drawn over.

Silence fell.

Su Mu also nodded inwardly.

Qing Jingrou truly deserved to be the first female lead. At such a young age, she possessed peerless beauty, bright eyes and white teeth, and a graceful figure.

Although she was still only a mortal, she already carried a faint aura of “immortality.”

Because of her cold and aloof personality that kept strangers at a distance, she was often called the Cold and Pure Immortal Maiden.

To be the first female lead, she was naturally not just a pretty face. She possessed an ancient divine physique, the Nether Phoenix Ice Severing Body. Her talent was so shocking that it spanned past and present. Even without cultivation, her cultivation would automatically increase until she ascended to immortality.

Seeing her approach, Su Mu felt a surge of excitement.

Here we go.
