I became the male protagonist's cannon fodder wife, I rebelled

In the study filled with the fragrance of ink, Youliangchuan sat on a mahogany chair like a scholar, tasting the freshly brewed tea in an elegant posture.

Cha Yiyi followed Youlan Shang into the study and immediately noticed that Youliangchuan was different from usual.

If it were in the past, no matter how much he disliked Youlan Shang and her, he would at least look up at them.

But now, from the moment they entered the study, Youliangchuan didn't even raise his eyelids, and just immersed himself in drinking tea.

Of course, Cha Yiyi didn't believe that the cup of tea could have such a great appeal to Youliangchuan. She just wanted to give her and Youlanshang a warning.

She lowered her head, bowed slightly, and confessed her guilt with a very sincere attitude.

"Master You, I was a coward and fled because I was afraid of the crime. I came here today to admit my mistake. I hope Master You will forgive me."

Before she came to see Youliangchuan, she had already decided what to say. She didn't want others to have any complaints, so she pondered over it for a long time.

Maybe this sentence is not the most perfect opening line, but it is the best for her.

Hearing this, You Liangchuan put down the carved teacup in his hand and snorted.

“Why is it an admission of guilt instead of an admission of guilt?”

Cha Yiyi pursed her lips and explained in a neither humble nor arrogant manner.

"I was charged with two crimes. The first was causing the Netherworld Immortal Crystal to be infected by demonic energy. Fortunately, I later helped find the dragon's breath, so I made amends and wiped the slate clean. The second was fleeing out of fear of punishment. I heard that my husband has already taken the punishment on my behalf, so this matter can be considered over."

After saying this, she slowly withdrew her hands from the bow and straightened her back.

"I admit my mistakes because I'm sorry for some of my previous actions and hope to gain other people's forgiveness."

Youliangchuan was very angry at Cha Yiyi's words. It was the first time he had seen such a sharp-tongued girl.

She has figured out the tricks of avoiding the important issues and making unfounded arguments.

But he couldn't refute it. It was a fact that he was making up for his mistakes and it was also a fact that he was taking the punishment for them.

If he holds on any longer, he will inevitably give people a chance to criticize him.

But how could he swallow the anger in his heart if he just let her go for nothing like this?

"To expect everyone to forgive you simply by admitting your mistake is probably too far-fetched."

Cha Yiyi was neither happy nor angry, and her expression was extremely calm.

Of course she knew that an apology alone would not be convincing, and she would have to be punished in order to convince everyone.

It's just that before the final judgment comes out, she must minimize the severity of her punishment.

If she doesn't even defend herself...

She was sure that the punishment she was about to receive would definitely exceed her endurance limit!

What's more, Youliangchuan already hated her because of Youlanshang.

"What Patriarch You said is true. A verbal admission of guilt is indeed difficult to convince others. I wonder how Patriarch You plans to deal with me?"

The reason why Cha Yiyi asked this was just to test You Liangchuan's attitude and see how much malice he had towards her.

The man sitting on the mahogany chair pretended to think for a moment before speaking, "Shang'er took the punishment for you before and was beaten with the Soul-Calming Whip fifty times..."

You Liangchuan paused for a few seconds, and his phoenix eyes, which were hiding a dark light, glanced at You Lanshang inadvertently.

Sure enough, the other party's face turned gloomy.

The corners of his lips curved slightly, as if in triumph or revenge...

"I see that you are quite sincere in admitting your mistake, so I think it would be best to give you a lighter sentence. How about this? I will punish you with five strokes of the Soul-Calming Whip."

Five blows of the Soul-Calming Whip!?

Cha Yiyi lowered her eyes, hiding the astonishment and resistance in them.

She was right as expected. Youliangchuan's malice towards her was even greater than she had imagined.

There are two types of punishment systems in Tianlan Continent. One is designed for cultivators, and the other is designed for mortals without spiritual power.

The Soul-Suppressing Whip is a magical weapon and is a punishment only given to cultivators who have committed serious crimes.

Not to mention mortals, even cultivators with low cultivation levels may die under the Soul-Suppressing Whip.

But Youliangchuan actually wanted her to experience the taste of the Soul-Calming Whip...

If she accepted it, I'm afraid that one whip would shatter all her internal organs.

It is true that a man without cruelty cannot be a hero. She also broadened her horizons.

Cha Yiyi clenched the hem of her clothes tightly with her two small hands, and endured it again and again, not yelling at You Liangchuan.

This shameless guy might have deliberately made things difficult for her just to irritate her.

She must not fall into the trap!

"Master You, you really want to force me to usurp the throne, don't you?"

While Cha Yiyi was still trying her best to calm down her anger, Youlan Shang's voice, which was difficult to tell whether it was happy or angry, was already ringing in the study.

His tone was nonchalant, as if he was talking about something very ordinary.

Cha Yiyi was stunned by these words that came out of nowhere. Before she could react, another furious voice exploded in her ears.

"presumptuous!"

Youliangchuan was furious.

He stood up suddenly and slammed his big hand on the mahogany table.

The desk broke in two, and the exquisitely carved teacup fell to the ground, splashing tea everywhere.

"Evil boy! Say it again if you dare!"

You Liangchuan's gentle and handsome face was twisted and red with anger. He raised his finger and pointed at You Lanshang who was smiling faintly.

"Master You, since you've already heard it, why do you need me to say it again?"

"What do you mean?"

"That's what you understand."

"you!"

Cha Yiyi stood aside, feeling somewhat uneasy and fearful, yet also secretly delighted.

What Youlan Shang said was tantamount to supporting her. Although she didn't know whether he was sincere or fake, she was undoubtedly happy.

At least she is not alone and fighting alone.

She quietly held Youlan Shang's hand, and the man's dry and warm palm made her feel at ease.

This allows her to feel confident and no longer afraid when facing the ferocious Youliangchuan.

"Master You, I am just an ordinary person without spiritual power. Even if I accept punishment, it should be judged according to the laws and regulations of mortals."

Cha Yiyi's words contained no anger or sarcasm, she simply stated the basic facts as usual.

It could not only calm You Liangchuan's anger a little, but also give the other party a good opportunity to back down.

"Yiyi is right. I was just joking just now. I wanted to see if you were truly repentant. I didn't expect Shang'er to take it seriously."

You Liangchuan showed a hypocritical smile. He was no longer a young man, so he would not do anything that would make him regret on impulse.

He has always believed that 'a little impatience will ruin a great plan'.

Youlan Shang is a rare genius among cultivators. Although he is younger than him, his cultivation is far superior to his.

The current situation does not allow him to become enemies with this evil creature.

He paused, then continued, "Seeing that your relationship is getting better and better, I am very pleased."

As soon as these words were spoken, the small piece of white clothing outside the study door disappeared instantly...
