บท 7: First Villainess
"Senior Brother! Mind your conduct! This is our esteemed Sect Leader, Yu Minhe, the greatest genius in the Qian Prefecture, and perhaps even in the whole Tianxin Dynasty!"
Me Feng felt a second-hand embarrassment as his goon flattered this divine woman incessantly. He cursed him inwardly. This kind of woman always had a godly sensor to detect your true intentions, so your flattery shouldn't be this bootlicking!
She could easily see through your intentions! Damn goon!
The Sect Leader, Ye Minhe, merely glanced at Li Yuan, to which he quivered, before she placed her eyes on Me Feng.
Her phoenix eyes narrowed slightly. This is...?
"What's your name?"
"Huh?" Me Feng dumbly asked back. He cursed himself inwardly. Damn lover boy, can you talk to her properly?
"Tell me your name, disciple," Her cold voice discreetly softened. Unfortunately, despite his wits, Me Feng, who was agitated, could not detect it.
The man tried to calm himself down. After a second, he bowed appropriately, "I am Me Feng, an Outer Disciple. It's an honor to meet you, Sect Leader!"
"You saw it?"
Me Feng widened his eyes. He looked at her, whose eyes were graced with untold elegance. He was helpless. Of course, she, who could contend with Sect Leaders at the age of 23, could see it.
He just hoped she would not spread the news. Me Feng knew instinctively, just how much of a rarity for a cultivator to remain spirited after they saw that path.
"Don't worry. I don't talk much. You could say it freely here," Yu Minhe stared right into his eyes seriously as she assured him. Inwardly, she was somewhat perplexed.
She just come down from her abode, and was intending to search for the madman that caused unrest within the sect, and out of nowhere, a seedling from the Outer Division who could overcome that path appeared in this random clearing.
Yu Minhe wondered, is this perhaps what they called 'fate'?
She observed the disciple, who remained still under her gaze. After a while, his eyes hardened, "Yes, Sect Leader. I saw it."
Yu Minhe creased her eyebrows, skeptical. She couldn't believe her eyes either. A Body Reinforcement junior, overcoming that extremity? Even she, who holds these eyes, struggled endlessly to overcome it.
"If you don't mind, can I ask you how?"
Her starry, crimson eyes brightened, their stars magnified, showcasing their potency. Her eyes, the Heaven Gazers, could see through fake, manipulated truths, rendering trickery and lies useless.
At this moment, Me Feng seemed to be entranced by her question. His heart took over, awakening his subconsciousness. While his mind would make up cryptical answers, his heart would tell the essence of the reason why he did it.
"It's a meaningless struggle to love an Immortal. If I... cowered in fear by a mere path, how could I be her worthy half?"
Me Feng's essence was revealed at this very moment. His cynical attitude was subsided, replaced by what his heart truly contained.
To chase a meaningless struggle for the sake of loving an Immortal!
The will it required, the spirit it demanded, the courage it imbibed, the despair it gave out, the difficulty it laid out!
In her sea of consciousness, Ye Minhe was overwhelmed by the sheer will of this young man. She was bombarded by his despair and his unprecedented spirit to fight on!
Her starry eyes shimmered.
To love an Immortal as a mere mortal!
How torturous it was? Just how could someone dare to set such a despairing path as their dao heart? As the path of their heart?
Ye Minhe realized her inadequateness. She realized just how foolish she was to immerse herself in the glory of being the greatest genius of her sect.
She realized just how insignificant it was to set out her heart to defy the world that took her master away. To fulfill a 'small' dream of competing against those thousands-years-old legacies.
Compared to his aspiration, her so-called dao heart as a cultivator who was supposed to defy the heavens was nothing short of pathetic!
Yu Minhe's breath hitched.
At this moment, she grasped the true meaning of a cultivator, a being who defies fate!
It's to not feel even a bit of grief and hopelessness in the face of something that was impossibly far from her current standing!
Instead, her heart should spring out in vigor, excited to undertake any challenge ahead of her to accomplish what her heart had set out for!
"To love an Immortal... Me Feng, was it?"
After witnessing the manifestation of his will, Ye Minhe's cold gaze softened as she laid down the exhausted form of Me Feng. She looked at his face, the face of someone who dared to love an Immortal.
As a woman herself, her heart even fluttered a little. His courage to fight for his impossible love was extremely fatal. Yu Minhe shook her head a little to brush off her unnecessary thoughts.
It had surpassed the boundary of a fool long ago, and she, as an observer, could only watch in admiration.
In her sea of consciousness, as if something had been unrestrained, her Violet Palace exploded. It was filled with regality and boundlessness!
Li Yuan dumbly watched it all, his brain could not comprehend nor measure the length of what just happened. What he knew, however, was how the divine Sect Leader, Yu Minhe, tenderly caressed Me Feng's hair as she laid his exhausted form down.
She took out a worn-out book, along with some pills. There are even some natural treasures that could be used to strengthen his foundation and boost his cultivation. Finally, a small, sapphire prism-shaped pendant was hung by her over his neck.
Her white, black-streaked hair swayed in the wind as she ascended to the sky. Her crimson eyes glimmered, filled with enlightenment and determination.
"I truly wish to take you by my side, but you wished to remain undetected. Me Feng, I'll watch over you."
As for Li Yuan, she merely flicked her fingers, turning him unconscious.
As a peak Nascent Soul Formation expert, even a Golden Core Concoction expert was but a child. Not to mention a Body Refinement junior.
With a gush, Ye Minhe's divine, enlightened form disappears from the sky, leaving a strand of beautiful hair on Me Feng's forehead. After a while, Me Feng also disappeared, moved by mysterious, mystic power.
Afternoon arrived, Me Feng, who was unconscious, gasped in surprise as he woke up in his bed. He looked around the hut in confusion, noticing something seemed to be missing. He wondered, "What was it?"
Meanwhile, in the middle of the forest...
"Help! My bones aren't boning! They're broken! Junior Brothers?! Senior Brothers?! Sisters?! Boss?! Someone, Help!!!"
Li Yuan just wake up, feeling confused and lost. Where am I? Why did I became unconscious? And why the f*ck can't I remember anything? He cried as he held out his dislocated knee, only to realized that he did not feel any pain from it, or any parts from his body.
"Oh, they're fixed?" Li Yuan was dumbfounded, looking at his located knees as if he were looking at some sort of miracle. He swore they were jammed just a moment ago.
Perhaps this was the doing of Senior Brother Feng? Who was saved by the Immortals?
Li Yuan tearfully jerked his nose to his robe, shouting out for his savior, "Boss!!! You're truly a man with integrity!!"
Back to the present,
"If I forget it, it means it was not important," Rather than formulating himself a headache, it was better to forget. Shrugging his shoulders, Me Feng was intrigued by the sudden prompts on his face.
He curiously looked at them,
"What happened?"
| The Soaring Cloud Sect's Sect Leader, Yu Minhe, was acquainted with you!
| The Soaring Cloud Sect's Sect Leader, Yu Minhe, regarded you as a friend!
| The Soaring Cloud Sect's Sect Leader, Yu Minhe, likes you!
| The Soaring Cloud Sect's Sect Leader, Ye Minhe, admired you!
| Detected that the host has unclaimed boons. Do you wish to claim it?
Me Feng widened his eyes. What the f*ck happened? How could Ye Minhe, the divine, cold, powerful Sect Leader, like him?
He was not particularly handsome, his aura was not dashing, and his intention was not admirable either. Me Feng tried to find any reason for this accident, but he truly couldn't make out anything. It's not that he regarded himself as sh*t, but in the eyes of a prodigious woman such as Yu Minhe, perhaps he was even worse than sh*t.
Of course, how could Me Feng possibly know the methods of a Nascent Soul expert like Yu Minhe? It was like a kindergarten trying to understand the means of a researcher.
In the end, Me Feng decides to put it aside.
"Claim!"
He wondered if it was comparable to what Chu Qing'er gave out. Me Feng's face turned strange. When he put it that way, it sounded really weird.
| Unclaimed boons have been claimed!
| You received 70,000 Karma Points!
| You received Blue Talent: Purple Lighting Eyes!
| You received 5 years of cultivation!
| You received a Yellow Ticket! It could be used to evolve a technique below Earth grade!
| You received a Mortal Aspect Elevator! It could be used to elevate one aspect below the Foundation Establishment level!
Me Feng widened his eyes. So many boons! He was ready to be overwhelmed by everything that he received, preparing himself to withstand any sort of disturbances.
However, he was struck still when his eyes simply turned purple lighting, capable of emitting hot, purple beams. They also boost the reaction time of his sight, upgrading its vision by a notch.
The breakthrough to the Qi Refinement realm was even more undermining. He blankly pry his meridians, feeling the increased amount of qi. He silently reached the 3rd Stage of Qi Refinement realm, just a shy away from Qi Condensation phase.
Me Feng should've been excited, but compared to the thrilling, exciting breakthrough in the clearing near the forest, this was... A little bit underwhelming.
"It was like a peaceful, serene lake."
With qi regularly circulated throughout his physique, now, Me Feng could enhance his body functions. Although it was the most primitive, downward way to utilize qi known to the cultivation world, it was still overwhelming if used correctly.
He demonstrated his newfound power through the Stance of the Snake. With a deadly punch, a hole was created! Me Feng stood still for a moment, staring at a fellow disciple through the said hole.
"Uh, hello, fellow disciple?"
The young man just stared at him blankly before he ran away. Me Feng scratched his head. Well, at least he did not hurt anybody.
Me Feng opened his status in curiosity. He wanted to see if there was anything new, if there actually was.

"Oh, my spiritual root was upgraded."
Me Feng had this sense of happiness. He didn't know what was that state, but he knew it was because of his love for his wife.
His cultivation was boosted, nearly skipping a whole realm, and his spiritual root was upgraded by a grade.
Me Feng looked at the sky, smiling widely. My wife, you didn't know, but when you were unbelievably far from me, this was the first time I got something from you. You were the reason why I did not bend in the face of the unbelievably vast path of cultivation.
He marvelled. Perhaps if you did not like me, I would already die at the hands of that monkey...
Without his realization, so many coincidences have happened that either saved him from death or granted him an immense opportunity.
Me Feng couldn't explain it clearly, but he felt this intangible and ethereal line that was interconnected him, like a weaved string of something inexplicable.
In his reminiscence, at the corner of his eyes, Me Feng noticed something. He turned to the side, spotting a pouch placed on a simple table, with a strand of beautiful hair acted as its drawstring. He cupped his fists in gratitude, recognizing the beautiful hair on the pouch.
"It seems like my position was quite high, for the Sect Leader to personally gave me her trademark signature."
It took a while before Me Feng could regain his focus. Afterwards, he passionately rubbed his hands together, staring at both the interface and the pouch with a suspicious look.
"Now that I'm excited, let's see how powerful I could be after I use what I have!"
The amicable, grateful man suddenly showed a greedy smile. There are boons from the interface, and there are also boons from the Sect Leader!
It's time for a huge boost yet again!
Me Feng laughed gleefully like a madman,
"Mweheheheheh—!"
