Under the warm welcome of Tu Zheng and the other high-ranking members of the Ghost Controlling Sect, Jiang Chen and his companions settled in the sect.
It’s worth mentioning that, knowing the Ghost Controlling Sect had discovered her, Xiao Hongyi no longer hid her presence and entered the Ghost Controlling Sect openly.
…….
Several days had passed since everyone settled in the Ghost Controlling Sect.
Jiang Chen was strolling leisurely ahead with Lin Mubai and Zhang Hu following behind.
During this time, Xiao Hongyi was refining pills everyday, and Zhang Hu was diligently studying the ‘Way of the Poison Grandmaster’s Diary’, so Jiang Chen took the opportunity to practice his cultivation as well.
Jiang Chen’s intention was simply to cultivate since he had nothing better to do.
But the result?
There was no progress in his cultivation. The suppression from the heavens was still present.
Indeed, he still had to rely on the system rewards!At this moment, it was noon.
Despite the bright sun in the sky, the Ghost Controlling Sect was filled with an inexplicable chill.
Jiang Chen knew this was because the people of the Ghost Controlling Sect practiced ghostly arts, which were inherently cold.
“Senior Brother Jiang.”
“Young Master Jiang.”
Along the way, many disciples of the Ghost Controlling Sect greeted Jiang Chen with respect.
Jiang Chen nodded in response to each one.
He was a villain, and the Ghost Controlling Sect was also a villainous sect.
Therefore, the people of the Ghost Controlling Sect felt a natural affinity for him, and he also found some of the disciples particularly likable.
Of course, Jiang Chen hadn’t forgotten his purpose.
Although these were all villains, they were still normal people and could be used to earn system rewards!
It was just that compared to righteous disciples, it was a bit more difficult.
Soon, Jiang Chen led the group to an open space in the center of the Ghost Controlling Sect.
This place was where the disciples practiced their skills, and at a glance, it was filled with dense figures.
“Junior Brother Lin, what do you think of that Junior Sister with a face full of pockmarks and a plump figure? Senior Brother thinks she’s quite a match for you!” Jiang Chen pointed casually.
Upon hearing this, the Junior Sister in question trembled.
Although Lin Mubai looked disgusted, he still nodded and said, “Whatever Senior Brother says goes.”
“That won’t do!” Jiang Chen glared.
“How can a man have no opinion of his own?”
“Then I want a pretty one,” Lin Mubai added.
“Sigh, Junior Brother!” Jiang Chen patted his shoulder and sighed.
“Listen to your Senior Brother, that pockmarked Junior Sister is more suitable for you. After all, it’s all the same in the dark.”
Lin Mubai was left speechless.
Jiang Chen nodded, satisfied with his convincing words.
Turning to Zhang Hu, he said, “You, go tie up that pockmarked Junior Sister. She will be Mubai’s first wife!”
Lin Mubai’s mouth twitched, but he didn’t object.
Zhang Hu was shocked and said, “Ah? Just tie her up? Senior Brother, this is the Ghost Controlling Sect, aren’t we being too arrogant?”
“Are we?” Jiang Chen countered.
“Yes! Very much so!” Zhang Hu nodded vigorously.
“Sigh, Junior Brother Zhang!” Jiang Chen sighed.
“We’re all family, so naturally, we should be more relaxed. Besides, this isn’t arrogance, it’s care! I’m taking care of Junior Brother’s marriage.”
This time, it was Zhang Hu’s turn to be speechless.
“Well, aren’t you going?” Jiang Chen glared.
With no choice, Zhang Hu reluctantly stepped forward and, under the watchful eyes of everyone, tied up the struggling pockmarked Junior Sister and threw her beside Lin Mubai. R̃
“I would rather die than submit!” the pockmarked Junior Sister declared.
“Oh, then chop her,” Jiang Chen replied instantly.
“Alright!”
Lin Mubai was overjoyed and raised the chopping knife.
“Stop, stop! I submit!” the pockmarked Junior Sister exclaimed in terror, instantly caving.
“Weren’t you ready to die rather than submit?”
Lin Mubai frowned, regretting that he couldn’t go through with killing his ‘wife’.
“I am a person of the demonic path… going back on my word is the basic operation…” the pockmarked Junior Sister blurted out.
At this, everyone was speechless.
Jiang Chen, even more so, internally exclaims. I was careless!
He hadn’t expected that those of the demonic path could be so shameless, making it impossible for him to establish a proper villainous image!
His eyes darting, Jiang Chen then said, “I observe that this Junior Sister has an outstanding presence and a unique appearance, surely not a common being! I suspect she must be an undercover agent from the righteous path!”
An undercover agent from the righteous path?
Upon hearing these four words, the pockmarked Junior Sister was immediately upset.
She glared angrily and retorted, “Jiang Chen, you’re slandering me! Everyone knows I’m ruthless and specialize in killing men. You can say I’m ugly, but you can’t say I’m an undercover agent from the righteous path! A warrior can be killed but not insulted!”
“In that case, chop her,” Jiang Chen said with a shrug.
“Alright!”
Lin Mubai was delighted once again, raising the chopping knife high.
He really does chop people down.
“That’s right, I am indeed an undercover agent of the righteous path! You’ve uncovered me despite my deep cover!” the Junior Sister cowered once again.
“Haha!”
Watching her expression filled with anger, unwillingness, yet unable to lash out, Jiang Chen burst into laughter.
This is the feeling! How nostalgic! He relishes this demeanor when others can’t stand him but also can’t do anything about him!
Then, he turned to Zhang Hu and asked, “Junior Brother Zhang, what kind of woman do you like?”
“Beautiful…” Zhang Hu inquired tentatively.
“Hmm?” Jiang Chen raised an eyebrow.
“Alright, I’ll leave it all up to Senior Brother,” Zhang Hu quickly changed his tune.
“Good, very good!”
Jiang Chen praised him.
He then turned his gaze to a female disciple of the Ghost Controlling Sect whose face seemed to have been scorched by fierce flames, her eyes filled with scars, and her figure extremely masculine.
The female disciple locked eyes with him for a second.
Then… she ran off like an arrow!
Seeing this, the other female disciples also shuddered.
In just a few breaths, the bustling surroundings were devoid of any female disciples.
Jiang Chen frowned.
He had no choice but to look at a frail male disciple and said, “Junior Brother Zhang, since it’s all up to me, you wouldn’t mind a man, right?”
Zhang Hu immediately looked puzzled.
Hearing this, the male disciples around were so startled that they jumped up and fled in a sorry state.
At the same time, the system’s prompt appeared.
【Host’s actions conform to the villain’s character setting, cultivation level upgraded to the late Earthly Origin stage】
“Haha, good!”
Jiang Chen felt extremely satisfied.
Such feelings and such a situation were not something he could experience in the Jiuyan Sect.
At this moment, he was truly considering the Ghost Controlling Sect as a home.
Zhang Hu let out a sigh of relief and quickly changed the subject: “Senior Brother, what should we do with this Junior Sister? Should Second Senior Brother marry her tonight?”
Upon hearing this, Lin Mubai was furious.
Goodness, this was like diverting a flood to someone else’s field!
His eyes turned cold, and he silently raised his machete.
Seeing this, Zhang Hu shrank his neck and dared not speak further.
Of course, Jiang Chen wouldn’t let Lin Mubai marry this Junior Sister right now, as the dowry hadn’t been secured yet.
After some thought, he finally instructed, “Just throw her to the Master.”
“Is that really okay?” Zhang Hu hesitated.
“The Peak Master is currently refining pills, and if she is sent there, she might be used to test poison pills.”
“What’s there to be afraid of? Just don’t kill her.”
Jiang Chen was indifferent and looked at the two Junior Brothers: “You two also go ahead and do your thing. I’ll take responsibility if there’s trouble. We’re all family here, just don’t kill anyone, but you can rough them up!”
Upon hearing this, Lin Mubai grinned viciously while Zhang Hu alternated between frowning, squinting, and flashing a gleam of insight in his eyes, it was unclear what he was thinking…
