A Smile from the Villain - Chapter 74

Chapter 74: Tang Shayun’s World

Tang Shayun thought she was almost crazy. 

She never thought that she would experience such a terrible thing when she entered this world. After meeting Ziyang Pei in the secret realm, she watched Qin Shi take away her long-awaited Rain-Soaked Bell, and she herself… unfortunately fell into the hands of Ziyang Pei.

Since then, Tang Shayun’s idea that she was the protagonist had been completely broken.

Born with a natural demonic body, she was imprisoned by Ziyang Pei in an extremely cruel way to heal his younger brother. Tang Shayun was in so much pain that she didn’t want to live, and she almost harmed herself. If not for the remaining scraps of conviction left in her heart supporting her, she would have long ago committed suicide. 

That conviction was that she knew the plot, and that she might be able to wait until Shen Feixiao saved her!! After all, she was a member of Shen Feixiao’s harem… maybe…

But this thought was completely destroyed when she was taken away by the human-shaped eggplant. She saw Shen Feixiao coldly discussing conditions with Ziyang Pei, and the gaze he had towards her was like one towards an inanimate object. 

Tang Shayun, who saw this scene, almost mentaly collapsed. At this moment, she finally woke up to reality–the plot of this world had long ago changed!! If not for the plot changing, how could she have such unfortunate encounters, if not for the plot changing, how could Shen Feixiao have no interest in her at all?? Thinking up to here, a person’s figure appeared in Tang Shayun’s brain–without a doubt, the person who saved Shen Feixiao in the secret realm and the changed plot were extremely related, maybe… that person was a second transmigrator! 

With these thoughts, Tang Shayun was unable to return to heaven at all. She was imprisoned by Ziyang Pei and didn’t have the ability to change anything. She could herself walk towards ruin step by step. 

However, at that moment, the despairing Tang Shayun found her opportunity…

Qin Kaiyi didn’t expect that he would be able to see the Tang Shayun who had been taken by Ziyang Pei. 

He wasn’t sure if it was negligence or something else, but Qin Kaiyi, who had been shut in by Shen Feixiao for a whole month, one evening actually opened the wooden door that had been tightly closed.

Qin Kaiyi’s first reaction when he looked at the wide-open door was that it was Shen Feixiao conspiring, but when he returned to the room to think about it carefully, he found that Shen Feixiao didn’t have any reason to do so. 

There really was no reason. Qin Kaiyi was already a prey in Shen Feixiao’s cage, and he could be rubbed flat or pinched round with a single word from Shen Feixiao. He did not need to spend extra effort to test Qin Kaiyi. In front of absolute power, ingenuity was of no importance at all.

Qin Kaiyi, who didn’t know that Shen Feixiao had other plans, walked into the trap.

He ran out along the long corridor. He had bare feet because he had no shoes. The surrounding scenery seemed very familiar. After thinking a little, he remembered that this building appeared in his dream. Of course, there were those scenes that made Qin Kaiyi’s blood run cold when he thought about them, but that fear was useless. Wanting to escape, Qin Kaiyi suppressed his fright into the deepest part of his heart.  

Qin Kaiyi may have never thought of how many eyes Shen Feixiao had cast on him, and he may never know that Shen Feixiao could recall all the actions and words of the masked man. The influence of the masked man, who came and went without a trace, on Shen Feixiao had exceeded a certain limit. It had unwittingly left a deep mark on Shen Feixiao’s soul.

Because of this excessive attention, only the could certain abnormalities be noticed. 

Shen Feixiao saw the strange atmosphere between Qin Kaiyi and Tang Shayun in the secret realm. Although the two had hardly said anything, they all exuded the same kind of aura… they had a secret. 

This secret may explain why Qin Kaiyi would act as the masked person while trying every method to harm him. 

Shen Feixiao sat on a chair without expression. He watched Qin Kaiyi hurry out of the room and walk in a certain direction following the formation he laid out. The eggplant stood behind Shen Feixiao, and there was a longing smile on the corner of his mouth–he firmly believed that after this meeting, Tang Shayun would completely belong to him. 

When Qin Kaiyi walked halfway along the long corridor, he noticed something was wrong. It was too quiet, and there was not a hint of anyone around him. Qin Kaiyi looked around and found that the surrounding scenes were almost always the same–the same rooms, the same lanterns, even… the same angles of light.

A layer of cold sweat formed on Qin Kaiyi’s back. He always felt this kind of scenery… had in it a strange sense of wrongness. After hesitating for a long time, Qin Kaiyi gritted his teeth and turned to go back–he should have known that Shen Feixiao wouldn’t let him go so easily. 

Shen Feixiao didn’t react very much after seeing Qin Kaiyi’s movements. Qin Kaiyi finding his situation abnormal was expected. If he didn’t, Shen Feixiao would find that strange. 

But having walked so far, there was no difference between him discovering this abnormality this or not.  

Qin Kaiyi soon noticed the strangeness after turning around and walking back. He glanced down at the wooden floor under his feet and sighed heavily–sure enough, he fell into a formation. What did that fellow Shen Feixiao want to do? 

This confusion didn’t last long. Qin Kaiyi heard a subtle voice after moving forward a short distance. The voice resembled a woman’s moan, but contained something else.

“What is this…” Hearing that voice, the hairs on Qin Kaiyi’s body stood up… This scene was too much like the prelude to a female ghost’s arrival in a horror film.

“Help… Help…” Qin Kaiyi was frozen in place, but the voice in his ear became louder and louder, as if it were… behind him.

“Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!” When his shoulder was clapped, Qin Kaiyi was like a cat whose tail had been stepped on. He sharply screamed and then unhesitatingly aimed a fist towards his back. 

“Ah!” The person who was hit directly in the face cried out, and then retreated several steps at once.

“Scared me to death, scared me to death!” Qin Kaiyi put his hand over his leaping heart: “Don’t you know you can scare people to death, fuck…”

The person who was punched by Qin Kaiyi covered his face for a long time before coming back to himself. After doing so, he said angrily: “You’re crazy, I worked hard to come save you, and you just treat me like this!”

“Yan Gu!” Qin Kaiyi, who heard this familiar voice, immediately calmed down. He looked at the person who had the same appearance as himself and said, “How can it be you?”’

“Why can’t it be me.” Yan Gu didn’t said in a not-so-good tone: “Otherwise, who do you think it is?”

“… Ah.” Qin Kaiyi showed an embarrassed expression, he couldn’t say that he thought it was a female ghost!

“Yo, look at you looking like this, seems you’ve been living all right?” Glancing over Qin Kaiyi’s entire body, Yan Gu’s gaze was mocking: “I don’t know if your Shen Feixiao has been good to you?”

“…” Qin Kaiyi’s face was bitter: “How did you come in without Shen Feixiao finding you?”

“I’m not a human. How can he find me.” Yan Gu said carelessly: “I’ll take you away, do you want to go?”

“Is that it.” Agreement lingered in Qin Kaiyi’s mouht, but there was a suspicious expression in his eyes–Yan Gu appearing was really too coincidental.

“Then let’s go.” After Yan Gu said this, he wanted to pull Qin Kaiyi forward. However, at the moment he reached out, Qin Kaiyi avoided him without hesitation.

“What are you doing!” A trace of anxiety slipped through Yan Gu’s gaze: “Aren’t you leaving?”

“You are not Yan Gu, why should I leave.” Qin Kaiyi snorted: “You think I’m really stupid?”

“You!” Yan Gu saw that Qin Kaiyi wasn’t fooled, and his expression distorted in an instant. His eyes revealed poison: “Since you won’t follow me, don’t blame me for being rude.”

“…” Qin Kaiyi, whose cultivation was sealed, was suddenly under great pressure…

“Give me your body!!!” Seeing that his own plans had been foiled, “Yan Gu” finally flew into a rage. After shouting, he rushed towards Qin Kaiyi and tried to grab his neck with his hand.

“… Didn’t your parents tell you not to announce it when you make a move?” Qin Kaiyi easily escaped this person’s attack: “Also, my body is my own, how can I give it to you. “

“You!” It took a lot of demonic energy to maintain the illusion. Seeing that her disguise was broken, Tang Sha Yun attacked Qin Kaiyi wihtout hesitation–she must quickly find a body to possess, otherwise she would meet with a soul-scattering ending! 

The man in front of her was obviously the best candidate. His natural demonic body currently had no cultivation at all., Tang Shayun gritted her teeth and wanted to take Qin Kaiyi’s body away quickly!

But would Qin Kaiyi make Tang Shayun’s task so easy? Of course not. Although Shen Feixiao imprisoned his cultivation, his body had still practiced until he formed a core. It was more than enough to deal with a Tang Shayun who didn’t even have a body. However, the biggest problem now was not Tang Shayun ’s attack, but… 

“Are you crazy, Tang Shayun!” In fact, Qin Kaiyi felt somewhat of  a kinship when he saw Tang Shayun. After all, they were both  people who had transmigrated. They must have something in common. Tang Shayun suffered in the Hua Lian Sect, and although he had the idea of ​​helping her, he was really weak and he didn’t do anything in the end. However, now it seemed that this girl was far more determined than him…

“Do you know me?” The more Tang Shayun looked at him, the more she felt Qin Kaiyi gave her a strangely familiar feeling: “Who are you? You know me?”

“… I.” Qin Kaiyi didn’t know what to say. He could only temporarily distance himself from Tang Shayun, trying to calm down the person in front of him: “Don’t be impulsive, if you have something to say let’s speak  well.”

“Are you also transmigrating? It’s you who changed the plot!!!” But Tang Shayun, whose soul had left her body, apparently didn’t have the patience for Qin Kaiyi to explain slowly. Her voice was sharp. Her reason affected by Shen Feixiao’s formation, her mind began to become chaotic: “Why do you want to hurt me? Why do you want to hurt me!!! Obviously I am the protagonist, I am the protagonist!!! The one Shen Feixiao should like is me… it’s all your fault, it’s your fault!!!! “

“…” Qin Kaiyi took a cold breath. He didn’t expect that Tang Shayun would spit out this unspeakable matter just like she was spitting out a pea!
