After Severing Her Emotions, the Whole Sect Was Overwhelmed with Grief - Chapter 98:
Chapter 98: Ruan Xinyou Felt Overwhelmed by Jealousy
“Pfft!” Bai Ying couldn’t help but laugh after hearing Wang Miaomiao’s words.
Wang Miaomiao, however, didn’t feel ashamed at all. “I’m telling the truth. Don’t think I’m being vulgar or anything. It’s just that everything they did was only worthy of being compared to filth. And that so-called Sect Master of the Radiant Sun Sect, he looks so dignified and proper, but who would have thought he could be so vicious!”
As she spoke, Wang Miaomiao sighed again. It was only because their cultivation wasn’t strong enough that they had to rely on Bai Ying to deal with Xiao Yu by pretending to go along with him. Otherwise, if they could just rely on their cultivation alone to kill them, wouldn’t that have been even more satisfying?
“Since you’re not just blindly in love, I won’t disturb you anymore. I’m going to focus on my cultivation now. Once my strength improves, I’ll help you kill all of those people! I can’t let them bully you like this!” Wang Miaomiao said seriously.
Bai Ying couldn’t help but step forward and hug her. It had been so long since she felt such sincere kindness. “Miaomiao, thank you,” she said softly.
…
Xiao Yu had arrived much earlier than Bai Ying.
Even he hadn’t realized that while waiting for Bai Ying, he had been smiling unconsciously.
When he saw Bai Ying arriving alone, his eyes immediately lit up.
In his mind, memories of when they used to spend time together surfaced—those days when he often hugged Bai Ying.
Xiao Yu really wanted to hug her again, but he restrained himself. He felt that when it came to dealing with Bai Ying, a slow and steady approach was better.
“Let’s go. I know where the tiger is,” he said.
These pieces of information had been provided by the Sect Master of the Radiant Sun Sect. In order to lure Bai Ying in, they had accurately located every beast she needed to hunt.
Today, Xiao Yu even brought some powerful Treasure Artifacts to better impress Bai Ying and attract her attention.
He wanted to perform perfectly in front of her, to make her fall for him when she looked at him.
However, before he even had the chance to show off, Bai Ying had already drawn her Treasure Artifact and rushed forward.
When Bai Ying fought a beast, there was a desperate beauty about her actions.
At first glance, her moves seemed reckless, but a closer look would reveal that every move was carefully calculated.
She could even predict the next move of the beast.
Xiao Yu stood there, mesmerized by her every attack.
By the time he picked up his Treasure Artifact and joined the battle, he felt an indescribable sense of wonder.
Bai Ying, in her attacks, even took his strikes into consideration. This allowed Xiao Yu to feel clearly that he was a part of the battle, not just fighting separately.
They were fighting side by side!
Xiao Yu’s heart was filled with unspeakable joy. He fought with great enthusiasm, while Bai Ying noticed some movement in the nearby bushes.
The corner of her lips lifted into a cold smile.
She knew Ruan Xinyou’s feelings for Xiao Yu weren’t just about strategy; she truly liked him.
But she hadn’t expected Ruan Xinyou to be so insecure that she would secretly follow them.
Well then, watch carefully!
In front of Ruan Xinyou’s eyes, Bai Ying drew her sword and delivered a fatal strike to the Abyss Tiger.
That sword strike was as swift as lightning, the blade tracing a dazzling silver arc through the air. The sword vibrated slightly, letting out a clear, resonant hum. The force behind it was sharp yet elegant, like a magnificent dance, displaying both overwhelming power and breathtaking beauty in an instant.
Bai Ying’s posture was upright, her gaze firm, and her sword seemed to have merged with her, radiating fearless light. This fatal strike carried the force of thunder and was stunningly beautiful.
Xiao Yu was completely dumbfounded.
For a moment, he even forgot to breathe. His eyes were glued to Bai Ying, as if his soul had been captured by her.
Watching Xiao Yu’s gaze fixed on Bai Ying, Ruan Xinyou’s expression turned ugly.
Xiao Yu had truly been captivated by Bai Ying!
She couldn’t understand it. Why was there such a kind of person in the world?
Without much effort, they could easily get what others had struggled so hard for.
Just like Bai Ying—born with a top-grade fire spiritual root, her cultivation talent was monstrous.
In such a short time, she not only mastered the Spirit-Link Sword Technique, a heaven-defying skill, but also cultivated to the late stage of the Golden Core Realm.
It was as if with just a little effort, she could achieve what others couldn’t no matter how hard they tried.
Just like now, the Abyss Tiger, which should have been so difficult to deal with, was cut down as easily as chopping vegetables.
As long as Bai Ying was there, no one could look away from her.
Even the Senior and Junior Brothers that Ruan Xinyou had spent so much effort to win over were starting to think about Bai Ying again.
And now even Xiao Yu’s gaze was fixed solely on Bai Ying.
Ruan Xinyou truly felt herself burning with jealousy!
She was becoming more and more desperate to rip Bai Ying’s spiritual root and Golden Core out with her own hands.
After the battle ended, Bai Ying didn’t say much to Xiao Yu. After picking the Heaven-Mending Mushroom she needed, she prepared to leave.
She knew Xiao Yu well. The more you cared for him, the less he cared for you. Ignore him, and he would start to care.
Sure enough, when Xiao Yu heard that Bai Ying was leaving, he panicked.
“Don’t go! We still have other beasts we can fight together,” he quickly said.
But Bai Ying just pointed to the nearby bushes. “It looks like someone is waiting for you there. I won’t disturb you,” she said before turning and walking away without looking back.
Xiao Yu turned his head toward the bushes and saw Ruan Xinyou walking out.
His brows immediately furrowed in annoyance. “Why are you here? Don’t you know Bai Ying doesn’t like you right now? Aren’t you afraid she’ll misunderstand if she sees you?”
Tears welled up in Ruan Xinyou’s eyes immediately. “Senior Brother Xiao, I was just worried about you,” she said pitifully.
In the past, whenever Ruan Xinyou acted like this, Xiao Yu couldn’t bear to be angry at her.
But now, looking at her like this, Xiao Yu only felt irritated.
He forced himself to say, “I know.”
Ruan Xinyou then said to him, “Senior Brother, when are you going to bring Bai Ying back? My cultivation has been stuck for so long. Master said it’s because of my spiritual root. If I could get Bai Ying’s spiritual root, my cultivation would rise immediately.”
“I know, but it’s not that easy. You’ll have to wait a little longer,” Xiao Yu replied.
Ruan Xinyou frowned.
Wait.
Always wait!
How long was she supposed to wait?
If she didn’t have her system, she might have believed Xiao Yu’s words, but she could clearly sense the loss of her fortune points.
That meant Xiao Yu was already starting to care about Bai Ying!
She couldn’t just sit and watch as Xiao Yu’s heart tilted more and more toward Bai Ying!
Forget it. If Xiao Yu wouldn’t do it, she would take matters into her own hands.
She would personally rip out Bai Ying’s spiritual root and Golden Core!
Emeraldmimi
She struggled? She worked SO HARD?! The system can obviously manipulate people and she’s a white lotus. Her sect poured all their resources and cultivation into her becoming pseudo gc. What exactly has she done? She’s just selfish, greedy, and pathetic. Her only efforts are in drama and theft.
