Chapter 26 The Villainous Female Supporting Character in Immortal Cultivation (8)
Changning Town is no ordinary small town. It was here that Xia Mingwei and Mo Yuan met the female lead, Bai Yaoyao.
This time, with the gears of fate turning, everything seems to have returned to its starting point, and the story is about to begin anew. However, this Xia Mingwei is no longer the Xia Mingwei who was completely devoted to Mo Yuan.
The thought of their upcoming meeting filled Xia Mingwei with excitement. She felt she was ready and just waiting for the female lead and her group to take the stage.
She silently counted down in her mind, "Three, two, one."
No sooner had she finished speaking than a commotion erupted. Xia Mingwei thought to herself, "They've finally arrived!"
She slowly turned her head, and a stunningly beautiful face came into her view.
Unlike the terrifying members of the demonic cult, this girl in front of him, apart from her different clothes, had a face shape, eyes, nose, lips, ears, skin color, figure, hands and feet that were exactly the same. She looked exactly like a proper young lady from a respectable cultivation family.
Her bright, clear eyes, sparkling like stars, seemed to be thinking of something. She smiled excitedly at herself, her eyes curving like crescent moons, as if overflowing with her own spirit. With every smile and gesture, a noble air naturally emanated from her, leaving one in awe of her refined and elegant radiance.
She weaved through the crowd, occasionally picking up various novelties from the stalls and playing with them. Yan Sheng, who was guarding her, looked at Bai Yaoyao's smiling face and also smiled, a rare occurrence for him.
Just then, this peaceful atmosphere was shattered by a shout from the crowd.
"Stop! Thief!" An older woman had her purse snatched by a pickpocket while she was paying her bill.
She hurriedly chased after him, but there were just too many people coming and going. Seeing the thief darting away in the crowd and about to slip away, she hurriedly called out.
Hearing the cry for help, Bai Yaoyao, who always considered herself kind, couldn't sit still. Seeing this, she said to Yan Sheng, "Asheng, go help her! Don't let that thief get away!"
Yan Sheng nodded, then flew towards the thief.
With a flick of his whip, Yan Sheng entangled the thief's legs. With a quick pull, the thief, powerless to resist, tumbled in the air before crashing heavily to the ground.
Faced with overwhelming power, the thief could no longer protect the stolen money bag and allowed Yan Sheng to take it back.
Xia Mingwei naturally didn't miss such a good show. Long before Yan Sheng made his move, she hurriedly pulled Mo Yuan into the circle.
Knowing he had no chance of escaping today, the caught thief closed his eyes in despair as he watched Yan Sheng retrieve his money bag and prepare to strike again with his whip.
Xia Mingwei had been too far away to see clearly before, but now she could see him more clearly. Only then did she have time to examine the thief closely.
He was emaciated, with filthy long hair, a dirty coat, a dirty shirt, and dirty shorts. Calling him a thief was an understatement. His exposed arms were covered in bruises, and he looked like he had very little flesh on his body.
After such an analysis, it wouldn't be an exaggeration to call him a beggar.
Perhaps seeing a reflection of his past self, Mo Yuan, unusually, felt a pang of compassion. He grabbed Yan Sheng's whip and said, "The money pouch has been taken back, and the person has been caught. Let's show some mercy!"
Just then, Bai Yaoyao arrived. Hearing Mo Yuan's words, she angrily said, "Who are you? Why are you meddling in other people's business? This guy was just unlucky to be caught today! If we don't teach him a lesson, he'll probably do it again!"
"In my opinion, we should beat him up and then hand him over to the authorities!" Yan Sheng suggested from the side, standing next to Bai Yaoyao.
Upon hearing Yan Sheng's words, the thief became frightened and began kowtowing repeatedly on the ground.
While kowtowing, he kept saying, "Please, please don't send me to the authorities! This is my first time. I was so hungry that I had no other choice but to do this! Please!"
Before long, his forehead was bleeding from the force of his head hitting the ground.
It's not surprising that he was so afraid of seeing the authorities. Before descending the mountain, Xia Mingwei had specifically collected various laws and regulations concerning the human world. Among them was a mention that if a thief was handed over to the authorities, he would not only be punished but also tattooed. For a moment of impulsiveness, he would bear such severe punishment. Xia Mingwei felt that such punishment was far too harsh for this "thief."
"Even if it's the first time, we can't let it go so easily!" Bai Yaoyao insisted on her point of view, determined to send him to the authorities.
Xia Mingwei frowned upon hearing this. Was she really going to keep bringing it up?
Xia Mingwei never considered herself a saint, but thinking about the price this "thief" was about to pay, she was suddenly overwhelmed with sympathy. She couldn't help but say, "Look at his attire, he's probably out of options! Can't you be a little more lenient?"
Bai Yaoyao's words were abruptly interrupted, something that had never happened to her in the Demon Realm before. She immediately became angry.
She frowned and asked in a somewhat unfriendly tone, "And who are you? Why are you meddling in other people's business?"
Xia Mingwei had long known that she would have to avenge the original owner of this body, and that confronting the female lead was only a matter of time. Therefore, she was not afraid of her gaze at all and went straight to meet her.
Actually, this is quite different from the original owner's life. Logically speaking, Bai Yaoyao should be a kind and gentle person, but now it seems that this is not the case!
Before Xia Mingwei could speak, Mo Yuan, who had been silent for a long time, spoke up: "We come from Qingyun Peak and are disciples of Master Nanhua. May I ask who you are?"
Bai Yaoyao was stunned when she heard this. She hadn't expected that these two people had such a powerful background.
Yan Sheng watched Bai Yaoyao intently, his gaze never leaving her. Hearing Mo Yuan's question, he finally replied, "We're from the Mo Sect. It's perfectly normal that you haven't heard of it, brother. It's not a major sect; it's just a minor, insignificant one!"
Upon hearing this, Mo Yuan frowned and muttered to himself, "Mo Sect? I've never heard of such a sect! Am I truly ignorant?"
Although the voice was soft, Xia Mingwei didn't miss it. However, she scoffed at Yan Sheng's answer, "With the Demonic Sect being so universally reviled, would those two dare to show their true faces? If they revealed their real names, they'd probably be beaten to death before they even reached half a mile!"
