After Transmigrating into a Novel as the Master, I Was Forced into Love by the Yandere Villain - Chapter 6

“The Tianyuan Sword has already been sealed; there is no issue with this matter.”

It was rare for Bai Qiuluo to say so many words in one breath. He looked at his disciples with a solemn expression.

“This is of the utmost importance. It must not be leaked to a single soul.”

The Tianyuan Sword was a divine sword, and rumors even whispered that it concealed the secret to ascending to the immortal realm.

Yet because the Tianyuan Sword had long remained unmanifested, the world had been unable to track down its whereabouts.

If anyone were to discover that the Tianyuan Sword was hidden within Su Yuanyuan’s body and had even recognized her as its master, the fate awaiting Su Yuanyuan would undoubtedly be horrific.

“Master, this disciple understands.”

Shen Wang wore a well-behaved, obedient smile, though as he glanced sideways at Su Yuanyuan who remained unconscious on the bed a deep, unfathomable gleam flashed across his eyes in a fraction of a second.

He certainly hadn’t expected his luck to be this good; merely days after sneaking into the Xuantian Sword Sect, he had already acquired news regarding the Tianyuan Sword.

The fact that the Tianyuan Sword had chosen an owner was of little consequence to him; he could easily just take Su Yuanyuan away with him.

However, given his current avatar’s strength, snatching the Tianyuan Sword right under Bai Qiuluo’s nose was probably not going to be so easy. This matter would still require patience and a slow, calculated approach.

Bai Qiuluo waved his hand, tearing through the fabric of the void to return directly to his own dwelling.

According to the book’s plot, everything that had happened thus far served merely as prologue and setup.

The true beginning of the plot arrived with the Sect Grand Tournament, which would take place ten years later.

Relying on the power of the Tianyuan Sword, the female lead would claim the championship crown. After all, this was a female-oriented romance novel, so the perspective naturally centered around the heroine.

As for this disposable master of hers, he was nothing more than a background character meant to deliver resources.

Ten years passed in the blink of an eye. To keep him, the Immortal Venerable, occupied with guiding the protagonists and the villain, the plot had kept his cultivation strictly capped at the peak of the Fusion Realm.

During this period, even closed-door seclusion yielded no benefits for him. Consequently, Bai Qiuluo’s daily routine devolved into watching his disciples cultivate and getting pestered by Shen Wang.

Ever since Shen Wang successfully managed to share his bed, he had spent every single night crashing in Bai Qiuluo’s dwelling.

Whenever Bai Qiuluo showed the slightest inclination to kick him out, Shen Wang would adopt a pitiful, heart-wrenching expression and stare right at him.

After a few rounds of this, Bai Qiuluo gave up on the idea of evicting Shen Wang and tacitly accepted that the youth would continue sleeping beside him indefinitely.

“Good morning, Master.”

A handsome, refined young man greeted his master with high-spirited, radiant energy.

As if completely accustomed to it, Bai Qiuluo pushed him aside and stood up. Ten years of living together had made him extraordinarily familiar with Shen Wang.

Without a care in the world, Shen Wang opened his arms from behind and wrapped them coquettishly around Bai Qiuluo’s slender waist.

“Master, the Sect Grand Tournament is just a few days away. As the master’s eldest disciple, countless people are pinning their high hopes on me…”

Shen Wang deliberately paused for a moment before burying his entire face straight into Bai Qiuluo’s back.

His warm breath deliberately brushed against Bai Qiuluo’s waist. Sensing the slight tremor running through Bai Qiuluo’s body, a mischievous spark flickered in the depths of Shen Wang’s eyes.

“If I fail to secure first place in the tournament, won’t I be bringing shame upon Master? People outside will probably say Master is a terrible teacher.”

Shen Wang’s tone sounded aggrieved as he tightened his arms around Bai Qiuluo, acting thoroughly spoiled.

“Master, I’m under so much pressure. If I lose the tournament, will Master punish me~?”

When Shen Wang uttered the word “punish,” his tone turned exceptionally excited, as though he could hardly wait to experience whatever punishment Bai Qiuluo might dish out.

Bai Qiuluo reached out to pinch Shen Wang’s hand and turned around, fixing a cold, indifferent look upon him.

Ten years had gone by, and while his facial paralysis remained uncured, his social anxiety had improved quite a bit though that improvement was strictly limited to people he was already familiar with.

“…”

Have I raised him wrong? He’s always acting so spoiled and clingy around me; did I end up making him a bit too delicate and pampered?

“You won’t.”

“I knew Master couldn’t bear to punish me~”

Shameless as ever, Shen Wang flung himself right into Bai Qiuluo’s embrace, pressing his cheek against his chest. If he wanted to, he could reach out and pierce straight through Bai Qiuluo’s heart with a single thought.

Yet for now, Shen Wang couldn’t bring himself to do it. Over these past ten years of companionship, his interest in Bai Qiuluo had only grown deeper and more intense.

Dressed in immaculate formal attire, master and disciple walked out of the dwelling one after the other, a sight the male and female leads had long since grown accustomed to seeing.

“Greetings, Master.”

The female lead, Su Yuanyuan, had blossomed into an alluring young woman. At eighteen years of age, she possessed an incomparably pure and exquisite beauty, and her smile was bright and unrestrained, radiating charm like the rising morning sun.

Clad in green dharma robes, her entire set of accessories consisted of spiritual artifacts bestowed upon her by Bai Qiuluo, and her cultivation had already reached the late stage of the Foundation Establishment realm.

Though Su Yuanyuan possessed dual water and wood spiritual roots, the Tianyuan Sword sealed within her body constantly tempered her meridians, causing her cultivation speed to soar with terrifying velocity.

The male lead, Fan Chen, was only at the mid-stage of the Foundation Establishment realm. As for the eldest senior brother, Shen Wang, his surface-level cultivation appeared identical to Su Yuanyuan’s at the late stage of the Foundation Establishment realm.

“Mn.”

Bai Qiuluo gave a cold, detached nod as he sat upright upon the high seat, his chilling gaze sweeping across his disciples.

Despite having spent nearly ten years in his company, they still harbored an instinctive fear toward the cold and majestic Bai Qiuluo.

Ding—

Hello, Host. The main plotline has officially commenced. I am your system, Little A, at your complete service.

A mechanical voice chimed directly inside Bai Qiuluo’s head, exploding like a sudden clap of thunder.

The system?!

That’s right, Host. Just call me Little A. Our mission is to prevent the villain from turning dark and destroying the world, and to stop the villain from leading the Demon Realm to invade the cultivation world.

Current mission progress: 0%. Host, please keep up the good work.

The system rattled off a long speech in a flurry, leaving Bai Qiuluo’s eyes narrowed in sheer incomprehension.

System, hold on a second. Do I absolutely have to complete this mission? What happens if I don’t?

Host, failing the mission carries no direct penalties; it’s just that the host will be subjected to the system’s remodeling adjustments.

For instance, if you fail the mission, the system will remodel the host’s body to feature baby-soft skin that men would fall hopelessly in love with the moment they touch it, along with alluring curved contours, including but not limited to delicate, blushing pink rosebuds~

Hearing the system’s description of “remodeling,” Bai Qiuluo’s brain short-circuited entirely for a split second.

The good news: There’s no penalty for failing the mission.

The bad news: Failing the mission means your body gets remodeled.

System, why did you pick me? I’m just an ordinary office worker caught up in the rat race, and why on earth did you drop me off ten years too early?!

Bai Qiuluo ground his back teeth together in frustration. He didn’t want any alluring curves or blushing pink rosebuds whatsoever!

Heehee, the system selects hosts at random. It’s just that a minor accident occurred during the transmigration process, which is why the host arrived ten years before the plot officially began.

Now issuing the first mission: Have Shen Wang secure first place in the Sect Grand Tournament.

Failure carries no penalty, but a random part of the host’s body will be remodeled, oh~

The system’s gloating tone was impossible to miss, giving Bai Qiuluo the distinct illusion that it was entirely here just to troll him.

Though the exchange in his mind had taken place in a mere fraction of a second, to the outside world, Bai Qiuluo still maintained his usual cold and majestic demeanor.

Only Shen Wang, who knew him inside and out, keenly perceived the subtle shift in Bai Qiuluo’s focus as his attention drifted into the void.

Shen Wang remained entirely oblivious to the mental conversation between Bai Qiuluo and the system, yet he acutely sensed the minute ripples of change taking place within Bai Qiuluo’s aura.
