89: Chapter 89 The real villain, someone else will take the blame for his evil deeds.

Disciple's Immortal Cave.

Ever since being struck by the blow of Wang Ming's Breakthrough to Core Formation,

Chen Ye had made up his mind to enter secluded cultivation.

Until he broke through to Core Formation, he would never go out.

He was completely unaware of the recent thefts of undergarments within the Sect.

At this moment, he suddenly opened his eyes.

He exhaled a mouthful of turbid Qi.

A sharp light overflowed from his eyes.

“Foundation Establishment Sixth Layer!”

The joy on Chen Ye's face was hard to conceal.

Compared to Elder Ming in the ring, whose empty talk far outweighed his actual knowledge, the Sunflower Manual was what he considered the greatest Luck of his life.

When he Cultivated it, while progress couldn't be described as 'a thousand miles a day,' a hundred miles was certainly there.

“If I continue to Cultivate at this speed, I can reach Core Formation in three months at most!”

Light finally returned to Chen Ye's eyes.

Even without his junk,

he finally saw a glimmer of hope for the future.

At that moment, Elder Ming's voice suddenly came from the ring.

“Kid, you're doing this wrong.”

“In the matter of Cultivation, haste makes waste.”

“You're Cultivating like this and your progress is too fast; be careful of an unstable Foundation.”

The smile on Chen Ye's face faded, and he said indifferently, “Yes, this Disciple understands.”

He said it with his mouth, but in his heart, he was dismissive.

He talks big enough to pierce the heavens,

but not a single bit of it is practical.

If he truly relied on this old thing, he could forget about ever catching up to Wang Ming in this lifetime.

By now, he had long since stopped placing much hope in Elder Ming.

Everything still had to depend on himself!

Depend on that Sunflower Manual!

Thinking of this, he took out a dagger.

Elder Ming's heart skipped a beat. “What do you want to do?”

A look of absolute determination appeared in Chen Ye's eyes. “To practice the divine art, one must first castrate oneself!”

“Haven't you already castrated yourself?” Elder Ming said in bewilderment.

Chen Ye glanced down. “It wasn't thorough back then; a little bit of the edges was left.”

Hearing this, Elder Ming inside the ring swallowed hard.

Damn!

This kid isn't ruthless to his enemies, but he's too damn ruthless to himself!

He isn't leaving himself any way out at all!

Soon, bursts of tragic, inhuman howls echoed from within Chen Ye's Immortal Cave.

This caused all the Disciples living nearby to look over.

They didn't understand what this Junior Brother had encountered to be in such agony.

...

On the other side.

Gu Qingyi searched for a day but found nothing.

However, she still had to report the situation to Palace Master.

Palace Master said calmly, “For that thief to have the audacity to commit such acts, they must have some level of confidence.”

“It is only normal that you cannot find them.”

Gu Qingyi frowned. “But if we can't find him, he will surely strike again. It’s making all the Junior Sisters anxious, to the point they can't even focus on their Cultivation.”

Palace Master smiled slightly. “Not being able to find him now doesn't mean we'll never find him.”

“I have already activated the Sect Protection Formation. Below the Nascent Soul Realm, no one can leave the Sect.”

“There is plenty of time; you can take it slow.”

“I will be as quick as possible.” Gu Qingyi nodded upon hearing this and turned to leave.

The amount of Spirit Stones required to maintain the Sect Protection Formation was enormous.

Even though the Sect still had a lot in stock,

it couldn't withstand constant consumption.

...

“Stand straight, don't shake!”

Wang Ming held a whip with a serious expression.

This was refined from a vine he had cut in the Black Forest of the Dayan Secret Realm.

It didn't have any special effects, it just hurt particularly bad when used for striking.

Opposite Wang Ming, Little White stood up on its hind legs, blinking its eyes and looking at Wang Ming with a pitiful expression.

What bad intentions could a little kitten have?

It simply saw that those female Disciples always liked to hide these things.

Thinking they were some kind of treasures, it stole them back.

“You're even feeling aggrieved?”

Wang Ming didn't fall for it at all. “The reputation I worked so hard to build was almost ruined by you.”

“Meow!”

Little White lowered its head and gave a soft cry, lifting one paw while placing the other on its chest, indicating it knew it was wrong.

It would definitely be more careful next time.

“There's a next time?”

Wang Ming's brow twitched, and the whip in his hand instantly lashed across Little White's back.

“Meow!”

Little White first let out a tragic cry.

But soon, a look of obvious daze appeared on its face.

Its eyes rolled around, looking at the spot where it had just been whipped, and it gradually revealed an intoxicated expression.

“Meow! Meow meow!”

The grievance on Little White's face vanished instantly, and it kept meowing at Wang Ming.

Wang Ming could clearly hear the provocative tone in these cries.

Wang Ming: “???”

Did the whipping make it feel good?

“You like being hit, do you?”

Wang Ming was amused and simply put the whip away.

He would use reverse education.

If it's afraid of a beating, then beat it; if it likes being beaten, then he just won't beat it anymore.

Sure enough, the moment it saw Wang Ming put away the whip, a flash of disappointment crossed Little White's eyes.

“Meow!”

Little White did a sliding kneel, prostrating itself directly in front of Wang Ming with an incredibly sincere attitude of admitting its mistake.

Wang Ming was about to strike a pose and act tough.

At that moment—

[Ding! Choice triggered!]

[Option 1: How can stealing such a small amount be enough? If our peers next door saw this, they’d think we don’t know how to steal! Collude with Little White and steal the bellybands of every female Disciple in the Sect! Reward: Title 'Bellyband Hero' (Wear a bellyband on your head to increase combat power by one percent!)]

[Option 2: Little White is still young and bound to make mistakes. As its master, it is necessary to lead by example and tell it that stealing alone is useless; one must also know how to use them. Teach it the correct way to use a bellyband! Reward: Title 'Old Pervert' (Automatically enter a daydreaming state for fifteen minutes upon seeing a woman with a beauty score higher than 90)]

[Option 3: A fake villain does bad things and refuses to admit them even unto death; a true villain does bad things and has someone else take the fall! Frame the Child of Destiny! Reward: Will of Feces (When nature calls, feces is the most urgent. The Will of Feces allows you to control the feces of others! Can only be used on those with a lower Realm than yourself)]

Looking at the choices, Wang Ming's brow twitched.

Good heavens!

He was just worrying about not being able to find someone to take the fall!

Hasn't the scapegoat just arrived!

“Three, I choose Option Three!”

Wang Ming silently took out the whip and looked at Little White with a smile.

“Little White, you probably want me to whip you, right?”

Seeing the whip, Little White's eyes instantly lit up, and its tail wagged excitedly without stopping.

Wang Ming leaned down and whispered a few words into Little White's ear.

Then he took those bellybands out of the system space, repacked them, and threw them in front of Little White.

“Go, do the job well. When you come back, I’ll give you a satisfying whipping.”

Little White nodded excitedly, gave a 'meow,' and with a 'whoosh,' it turned into a white light and streaked out.

...

“Foundation Establishment Sixth Layer Peak!”

Chen Ye was covered in sweat, but his face was filled with uncontrollable excitement.

Just as he had thought.

After cutting off that last bit of scrap material, his cultivation actually increased again.

He went directly from the Foundation Establishment Sixth Layer to the Foundation Establishment Sixth Layer Peak.

“Wang Ming, it's you, it's all because of you that I am incomplete, that I can't be a real man!”

“Sooner or later, I will make you taste the feeling of having no love too!”

“That day will definitely not be too far off!”

Chen Ye laughed maniacally. Although he was laughing, his expression was incredibly twisted.

Like a mad dog.

Inside the ring, Elder Ming watched Chen Ye like this and remained silent.

He suddenly felt that there seemed to be no hope for the future.

Chen Ye had completely fallen into Qi Deviation.

If this continued, let alone reshaping his Physical Body, even the Soul Power he had exhausted for Chen Ye wouldn't be compensated!

He muttered to himself, “If a man does not look out for himself, heaven and earth will destroy him. Since you have such an obsession, then I will follow your wish.”
