The Book Soul Chronicles: Godslayer
Chapter 47 It's time to show off your acting skills!
Time passed quickly, and Mengmeng woke Ye Ling, who was cultivating in the space.
Ye Ling checked her cultivation level and found that it was more stable and her foundation was more solid. Moreover, she had already encountered a barrier and was only one step away from the Fusion stage. Breaking through this barrier would make her successful, which made Ye Ling very happy.
She put away the array plate, walked out of the cave with a smile, and slowly flew towards the exit of the secret realm on her sword. On the flying sword, she closed her eyes and took a deep breath.
"Ah, this is the air of freedom! Finally, I don't have to hide anymore!"
She was so immersed in joy that she forgot the saying that excessive joy can lead to sorrow.
As soon as she finished her exclamation and opened her eyes, she found a huge bird's nest not far from her. She was about to crash into it, and to make matters worse, she happened to run into the mother bird at home. She was radiating an aura of anger and staring intently at Ye Ling. A ball with a purple aura and crackling with lightning sparks condensed in her huge beak, and she threw it at Ye Ling.
Ye Ling was startled by the sudden turn of events, but her actions were faster than her brain's reaction. She immediately turned in a different direction and dodged the ball, but the shockwave from the ball hitting the ground still affected Ye Ling, who was nearby.
Ye Ling dared not stop, because she knew that stopping might lead to her encountering the Purple Lightning Vulture. So even though she knew the shockwave would affect her, she still flew forward towards the sword, and the shockwave helped her fly even further.
However, this was extremely risky. Although she activated a protective shield to block some of the aftershocks, it could only protect the surface of her body and she would still suffer internal injuries.
And the most terrifying thing is that if he fails to withstand the attack, he will not only be injured, but he also won't know where he will be thrown. If he happens to fall into the territory or lair of another spirit beast, then he will surely face certain death.
Ye Ling definitely didn't want to face such a situation. If she failed, she would have to face the Purple Lightning Vulture, especially a spirit beast with a cub. Not only was the vulture extremely irritable, but its attack power would also be greatly increased. She would definitely suffer a loss if she faced it.
But if she succeeds, even if she gets injured, it's still better than facing a spirit beast mother in her nursing period. After all, maternal love should not be underestimated, and Ye Ling firmly believes in this.
She had heard many stories of mothers seeking revenge for their dead children in her modern life. So, although she had never experienced that kind of maternal love herself, she understood and respected all mothers, whether human or non-human.
Ye Ling finally held on and escaped, but her sword swayed precariously.
The shockwave had left her completely disoriented, and to make matters worse, her internal organs felt as if they had been displaced, causing her excruciating pain that made it difficult for her to think. Blood was also visible at the corner of her mouth, indicating that she had indeed suffered internal injuries.
The next second, unsurprisingly, it crashed directly into the hill in front of her. With a loud bang, dust flew everywhere, and a large crater appeared. The person in the crater was motionless; anyone who didn't know better would have thought she was dead.
After a long while, Ye Ling in the pit moved her hands, raised her head, coughed, and then spat out the dust in her mouth with a "pui pui pui" sound, followed by a complaint.
"Holy crap, it hurts like hell!"
"Luckily, I'm tough and can take a beating! Otherwise, I would be dead here today!"
As she spoke, she scrambled to her feet in a disheveled state, eventually turning over and sitting up.
She stared blankly at the huge crater she had created, then glanced at the healing pill in her hand, and finally lowered her head to ponder.
Taking a healing pill immediately after being injured is probably the first reaction of every cultivator. Even Ye Ling, who had only recently transmigrated, would take out a healing pill.
But then she suddenly realized that if she took the healing pill she had just taken from her cheap master, she would be able to stand up and run and jump right away. However, she suddenly remembered that she would have to face the female lead later, and a plan suddenly came to mind.
Now that she's injured, and seriously so, it's even more convincing for her to fabricate a reason for surviving the secret realm. Besides, she used to give the male and female protagonists so many good things when she saw them injured, and she did it in front of many people. So now that she's injured, it's not unreasonable for her to ask them to take some things back!
Although he was injured, he could still fly on his sword, especially since he was not far from the exit of the secret realm. He could get out if he gritted his teeth.
She'll rest here first, fly slowly for a while, take a break, and wait until there are enough people outside before making a pitiful entrance. The male and female leads, in order to show off their prowess, will definitely not be injured at all and will be dressed neatly. Then, she'll play the victim, praise them, and ask for something. When others see the stark contrast between them, they'll definitely side with her. It's perfect timing, location, and people!
Thinking this, Ye Ling couldn't help but let out a sinister laugh. When she came to her senses and heard her own malicious laughter, she quickly looked around to see if anyone had heard her. After all, she didn't want to be discovered on her very first attempt to scheme against someone after just transmigrating, especially since they had heard her demonic laughter. Not only would she give someone leverage over her, but she would also be in deep trouble.
A head can be severed, blood can flow, and one can die without a complete corpse, but not a social death. She would be unable to resist wanting to return to her mother's womb and be reborn.
After making her decision, she began to prepare for her acting skills. She pulled off the storage bag from her waist and threw everything into the Hongmeng Space Bracelet. This way, she could act out the reason why she ran out with such serious injuries, and even lift up the male and female leads to force them to spit out her things.
He then took several twigs of varying sizes, sharpened them, and used them to make cuts in his clothes, to create the illusion of his haste in escaping and the near-death experience he had endured.
Then she dug out the loose powder used by female cultivators in the cultivation world to cover up her complexion and lip color, making her look pale and weak.
Then she flew towards the exit of the secret realm on her sword, while searching for plants with strong scents to cover the smell of the powder on her face so as not to be noticed by someone with a keen eye.
Eventually, she found a plant that was common and widely distributed in the secret realm, and whose scent was enough to mask the smell of face powder.
She found a patch of Floating Dizziness Grass, chose an inconspicuous spot, and rolled around on it, getting herself completely covered. When the Floating Dizziness Grass is intact, it doesn't have a strong smell, but if you injure it, even by lightly scratching its skin, it will immediately release a strong and pungent odor—this is its self-protective defense mechanism.
When she stood up and smelled herself, she looked like she was about to vomit. Her expression was indescribable. The smell was so strong that she didn't even need to use powder to cover her face; it turned white on its own and made her dizzy.
She couldn't take it anymore, feeling like she was about to roll her eyes back. She shut down her sense of smell and finally felt herself come back to life.
She looked at her masterpiece and was very satisfied. She not only wanted to make those two ingrates vomit up everything she had, but also to disgust them.
Thinking this way, Ye Ling's feelings of frustration and negative emotions from the past few days dissipated considerably. She realized that she was indeed suited to stabbing people in the back. There was nothing she could do about it; her cultivation was inferior to theirs, her luck was not as good, and she just happened to have the nature of repaying kindness with kindness and revenge with revenge. Most importantly, she was also vindictive.
I can't beat you now, but who knows what the future holds? If I'm not having an easy time, you won't be either.
Ye Ling increasingly felt that she had the potential to be a villainous supporting character, and that she should be promoted to a higher rank so that she could be a villainous supporting character instead of a cannon fodder character.
After planning everything out, Ye Ling even thought of her lines and rehearsed the scene. She adjusted her facial expressions and the most aesthetically pleasing movements from which angles. With precise attention to detail and perfect preparation, all that was left was for her to step onto the stage and start showcasing her acting skills.
Thinking about it, Ye Ling happily flew towards the exit of the secret realm. She was so excited and euphoric that she didn't even notice the deep purple-blue light emanating from the crystal given to her by her cheap master, Qingyu.
Little did she know that all her actions, contrary to her wishes, were being observed by someone.
The figure hidden behind her was in the shadows; one could vaguely see the corners of his lips curling up, and his terrifying eyes revealed interest.
A deep male voice rang out, carrying the madness of someone eyeing intriguing prey, "Floating Light Sect, Ye Ling? Seems to have many secrets! Truly interesting! I love digging up other people's secrets!"
After saying that, he chuckled softly!
