Fantasy: I Am the Villain.

Chapter Forty: The Snake Swallows the Elephant (Part Six)

Meanwhile, Bai Ke was sparring with the disciple beside Xin Shuangqing, and the crowd on the stage, including Zuo Zimu and Xin Shuangqing, were paying close attention.

Needless to say, Xin Shuangqing's disciples stood up for him, and no matter how despicable their methods were, they were still his disciples, so of course he had to take good care of them.

As for Zuo Zimu, it was partly to observe the current strength of the Northern Sect, and partly because he was at odds with Xin Shuangqing.

When Bai Ke entered, he used his supreme divine sense to force everyone to believe that he was the Northern Sect successor of the Wuliang Sword Sect who had fled to Shanxi.

But ultimately, the hardest thing to fathom is human nature. How could he possibly gain everyone's complete trust? Even brothers have their disagreements and conflicts, let alone this imposter apprentice.

For Zuo Zimu, Bai Ke's flattering words earlier pleased him, but it was much more difficult for him to help Bai Ke wholeheartedly.

Seeing Bai Ke whipping his disciple until his nose and eyes were unrecognizable, Xin Shuangqing couldn't sit still any longer and immediately stood up to stop Bai Ke.

Seeing that Xin Shuangqing seemed to want to disrupt the competition, Zuo Zimu slowly said, "Junior Sister Xin, let the juniors play around for a while!"

Your disciple keeps asking Junior Nephew Bai for guidance! The ten-move agreement isn't over yet, Junior Sister, what's the rush?

The moment the promise of 10 moves was uttered, even Zuo Zimu couldn't help but chuckle, and a burst of laughter erupted from below. There was no other reason than that the man's boast was simply too grand.

Previously, Xin Shuangqing's disciple, seeing that Bai Ke was young, thought he could defeat him and made a 10-move agreement with him. However, the outcome was decided in less than 3 moves.

"What's more..." Zuo Zimu stroked his long beard and said in a sinister tone, "Just now, didn't Junior Sister Xin keep saying that she wanted them to see what it means to be outmatched?"

"Hmm... I remember Junior Sister Xin also told us not to get carried away? What, if your own disciples are not as skilled, you have to personally take action?"

As they spoke, Zuo Zimu's voice grew louder and louder. Seeing the tense atmosphere between the two, the disciples standing below the stage also gripped their swords tightly.

Just then, a thud was heard. It was Bai Ke kicking away the unconscious disciple of the Western Sect, who crashed into a large tree next to the garden.

Leaves fell from the tree, and one of them fell right onto his face, as if even the tree thought he was too ashamed to show his face.

“Uncle Xin, I was too heavy-handed and knocked this… senior brother unconscious. I am truly ashamed and beg you to punish me.”

Despite saying that, Bai Ke was in high spirits and had come with the momentum of a great victory, so how could Xin Shuangqing say anything to punish him? He only ordered his men to help the disciple who had fainted to the side away.

"Huh? Junior Sister Xin, wasn't this what we agreed on before? Does this mean that what this boy said about serving tea and water to Junior Nephew Bai is just a formality?"

"Senior Brother Zuo, don't be so unreasonable! My disciple Yuan Jie is so badly injured, how can I possibly serve him tea and water? Senior Brother Zuo, are you trying to fool us in the Western Sect by being so persistent?"

"Hehe, Junior Sister Xin, you're exaggerating! I'm merely seeking justice for Junior Nephew Bai." Seeing Xin Shuangqing's anger, Zuo Zimu added fuel to the fire.

"Nephew Bai, you must have anticipated this moment by using a bamboo branch as a weapon. Was your disciple faking unconsciousness?"

"You...!" Seeing that Zuo Zimu was relentless and showed no regard for the status of a sect leader, Xin Shuangqing couldn't help but want to attack, but she forcibly restrained herself and turned to Bai Ke, saying:

"And you? Do you expect my poor disciple to serve you tea and water?" Seeing the anger in Xin Shuangqing's eyes, Bai Ke chuckled and then said:

"I will naturally follow my senior uncles' opinions, but..." Bai Ke said with a smile, pointing to the unlucky guy who was being helped to the side.

"Your sect's... senior brother seems to be waking up. To be honest, I'm quite puzzled. He didn't exert much effort at all, so how did he... senior brother collapse?"

As everyone burst into laughter, Yuan Jie, who had unfortunately fainted, swayed and stood up on his own, groaning incoherently.

Frustrated, Xin Shuangqing slapped him hard, nearly knocking him unconscious again.

"Hahaha! Junior Sister Xin, now that your disciple has woken up, why don't you let him go downstairs and change his clothes before coming back in?"

"It wouldn't be good if it got dusty when you served tea to my junior disciple Bai later!" Zuo Zimu kindly reminded Xin Shuangqing about the bet.

Just now, Bai Ke had thoroughly humiliated Xi Zong and Xin Shuangqing on his behalf, so Zuo Zimu was naturally overjoyed and even addressed Bai Ke with much more affection.

Xin Shuangqing, with a grim expression, chased Yuan Jie, who had come to her for help, out and ordered him to wash up and come back.

He used that lazy donkey roll move over and over again, and coupled with his previous "bold words," Xizong has truly lost face and dignity today.

With a wave of her hand, she ordered someone to take the disgraceful and embarrassing Yuan Jie away. Only then did Xin Shuangqing sit down again. "Senior Brother Zuo has been very kind to my Western Sect today. Junior Sister will never forget it and will surely repay you handsomely in the future."

Xin Shuangqing said this through gritted teeth. If it weren't for the presence of Bai Ke and his disciples, she would have already stepped forward to fight Zuo Zimu.

"Haha, no problem, no problem. Junior Sister Xin and I are as close as family. Why say such things? Wouldn't that be making a scene with your senior brother?"

Zuo Zimu didn't care at all. The Eastern Sect had defeated the Western Sect again, and he could spend another 5 years comprehending the secret of the Boundless Jade Disc.

Recently, he discovered that every time the moon is full, there are always shadowy figures moving around the Boundless Jade Wall. He will soon be able to understand the secret of the jade wall, and then he will no longer need to give Xin Shuangqing face.

Bai Ke watched Zuo Zimu and Xin Shuangqing argue back and forth without saying a word. He just kept raising his hairpin to drink, knowing that the wine would be spiked later and that he should drink less now.

Just now, Bai Ke was sparring with that person. His swordsmanship was superb and his demeanor was elegant, which won the hearts of a group of female disciples. In just a short while, Bai Ke had already noticed several of them stealing glances at him.

Bai Ke smiled and raised his glass to the female disciples who were stealing glances at him, eliciting gasps of surprise.

There's no need to go into details about how everyone was having fun in the garden, but Sikong Xuan, who had been waiting anxiously outside, was quite impatient.

He had been waiting by the side for more than an hour, but not a single servant had come or gone. How could he "add ingredients" to the meal?

Even if the Shennong Gang has some supernatural methods, they can't just poison someone out of thin air; they always need a medium. But right now, Sikong Xuan is like a clever woman trying to cook without rice, which makes him extremely frustrated.

Just as he was feeling annoyed, Sikong Xuan saw a disciple, disheveled and covered in dust, hurrying towards him.

"Hmm? The opportunity has come..." Sikong Xuan was overjoyed. Instead of retreating, he advanced and actually went to meet the person.
