Villa Head Nie, Shen Ming, Leader Zhao, and two other clans took part in the scheme that year.
This was why so many people agreed when the Medicine King Valley suggested keeping the event a secret. Once a significant number of people agreed, the rest would just follow the crowd blindly.
The monk sighed and shook his head. “Amitabha.”
“Are you the one that annihilated the Half Moon Villa?” someone asked leader Zhao.
“Don’t listen to the demon. I never did such things before. Don’t be fooled by them,” Leader Zhao tried to explain.
“Let me guess, she killed Shen Ming as well as the people at Half Moon Villa.” Ming Shu interrupted their conversation. She smiled and looked at Wei Yunrou. “She is not trying to shut them up. She is taking revenge.”
Wei Yunrou sneered when her thoughts were read.
Ming Shu’s smile got deeper. “Why are you going against me? Are you crazy?”
Wei Yunrou didn’t bother hiding her intentions. She said with anger, “How can Mu Changfeng have a child with another woman? You have to die.”
Just great, Ming Shu went to the Half Moon Villa so Wei Yunrou pushed the blame onto her.
“You are really sick.” Your illness is quite serious. I have to be a lunatic to win over you.
Ming Shu glanced at Feng Bei.
Feng Bei: “…”
Why are you looking at me? I am not sick.
“Then why did you want the Five Treasures Bible?”
Wei Yunrou kept silent. She didn’t answer the question.
That was Mu Changfeng’s property… How could she let it rest in the hands of other people. Not even his daughter could have it.
[Hatred Points are full.]
Ming Shu looked at Feng Bei silently. These Hatred Points must be Hatred Points from the masses. When would she be able to get Hatred Points from Feng Bei?
This was a problem without any solution.
Now, most of the puzzle was solved. Only a small portion remained.
For example, why did Villa Head Nie participate in the event even though he hated the Five Treasures Bible? Did something happen after that which made him hate the Five Treasures Bible?
No one could answer her. Villa Head Nie was dead.
…
Ming Shu beat the people that scolded her the most till they were half dead. Wei Yunrou was included too. I can’t kill them but I can hit them!
After beating them, Ming Shu remembered something important. She went to the Alliance Master’s study personally and took out some writing materials. Then, she gave everyone a “Five Treasures Bible.”
The people who got the fake Five Treasures Bible: “…”
This is the Five Treasures Bible you said you would give us? You might as well not write it. Are you trying to anger us to death?
“Keep it safe. My writings might become very valuable in the future.”
Who wants to keep it safe!
Although the words were written very beautifully…
Why do they feel so angry looking at it?
Ming Shu searched Wei Yunrou’s body for the antidote and allowed her disciples to be able to move and jump around. As for the rest of the people… let them continue lying on the floor.
The bunch of people lay on the floor. They burned holes in Ming Shu’s body with their gazes.
“See you next time.”
Ming Shu smiled sweetly at them and waved as if the person who beat them up wasn’t her.
“Mu Ling!”
Wei Yunrou suddenly called her.
Ming Shu stopped in her tracks and turned back to look her. Wei Yunrou gave a weird and sinister smile. She didn’t say anything.
…
Ming Shu didn’t know what happened to Wei Yunrou and her people. She just knew that she was cleared of the charges of killing the entire Half Moon Villa.
However, there were still a lot of people chasing after her. The Five Treasures Bible was like a time bomb.
Ming Shu thought of something very important.
“Harmony System, is Nie Shuang dead?” Although the entire Half Moon Villa was annihilated, as a fake female protagonist, Nie Shuang should be able to live a while longer.
[The mission is written as incomplete.]
That meant that she was not dead.
Let’s go find her to get some Hatred Points.
The best-laid plans of mice and men often go awry. Before she could find Nie Shuang, she was lured back to the Five Treasures Immortal Clan by the protector.
The protector was very angry about Ming Shu tying him up and creating such a mess outside.
In the end, he asked Ming Shu to settle the clan’s businesses by herself and he went to meditate behind closed doors.
Ming Shu: “…” Why is the life of a leader so hard!
“Leader, do you want us to snatch a young man back to help you settle all these things?”
“Leader, the weather became colder recently. It will be good to have a young man warming your bed!”
“Leader, if you don’t mind, you can choose from within the clan too. Look at me. My body is really good!”
“Leader, me me me…”
Ming Shu looked up from a pile of booklets. “Are you all very free?”
The disciples laughed. “Our mission is to protect you!” And at the same time care about your personal life too.
They said it righteously.
“Do I need your protection?” Ming Shu rolled her eyes in her heart but maintained a smile on her face. “When a fight happens, you run faster than anyone else.”
She believed that if someone attacked the clan, the disciples would abandon her and ask her to fend for herself.
” Cough cough … that was to allow you to show off your abilities.”
“Yes yes, our leader is so powerful. If we don’t show your abilities to them, how can we show off our powerful leader and enhance the reputation of our clan?”
Ming Shu knocked on the table and signaled them to keep quiet. “Get an arrest warrant.”
“Who are we arresting? The hall master of the Seven Stars Hall? I felt that that hall master is quite handsome, but he wrapped himself up in a cloak on such a hot day. Do you think he has some illness? Leader, why not change to someone else?”
“If the leader likes him, we will go catch him. Who cares about his illness? If he has one, we can try to cure it. If it can’t be cured, we can change him afterward.”
“Yes yes yes, as long as our leader likes him.”
Leader Ming Shu: “…” I haven’t even said anything. What the hell are you all thinking?
“Arrest Nie Shuang.”
“Nie Shuang? The one from the Half Moon Villa? Isn’t that a lady… Leader, don’t take things too hard!”
Ming Shu slapped him. “If you continue talking nonsense, I will…”
“Okay, Leader.”
“No problem, Leader.”
“We will go now. We promise that we will settle it beautifully.”
The disciples ran off but they didn’t bother hiding their worries for their stupid leader. If there were no successors for the Five Treasures Immortal Clan next time, what would they do?
Ming Shu: “…” Idiots idiots idiots.
After sending the disciples away, Ming Shu pushed the things on the table aside and took out a snack box from below.
She practiced after finishing her food. If she didn’t, she would experience the same thing every month. Although practice… didn’t make much difference.
From what she heard, she wouldn’t have to suffer every month if her practice came closer to the end.
Ming Shu suspected that this was not the case. However, she wouldn’t be able to see the ending pages if she didn’t practice. Hence, she continued practicing.
“Leader, this is not good!”
“Leader, Leader, something big has happened!”
The shouts outside almost caused Ming Shu to cramp up while practicing. She flicked Little Beastie off her body and jumped down the bed. “What are you all doing bright and early in the morning? If you are sick, go find the chef to get something to eat. Your leader is still alive and well!”
The disciples rushed toward her hurriedly and shouted, “Leader, someone is attacking us!”
“Attack us, then. What are you all shouting for?”
The disciples were excited and not the least worried. “Leader, someone is attacking us!”
“I know.”
I am not deaf. Do you have to repeat yourself?
