I Became the Villain's Pendant - Chapter 55

Yin Xuezhuo was speechless when he heard that.

Yin Xuezhuo did have that thought.

However, he had to choose a suitable day to beat up Ji Yunqing. Although Yin Xuezhuo handled matters in a simple and rough manner, he was so just because he had the strength to match it. He had the qualifications to be willful but it did not mean that he was a reckless person.

Ji Yan stayed at the residence and rested for a while. After she woke up, the people Ji Yunqing sent to serve Ji Yan had quickly arrived.

Those were a few female disciples with cultivation. As Ji Yan was still using Bai Xiu’s identity, they only knew that the sect leader had specifically instructed them to look after Bai Xiu attentively so their attitude towards Ji Yan was barely considered respectful. The thing that made Ji Yan unable to bear was they were actually more clingy than Yin Xuezhuo. If she said Yin Xuezhuo was within ten steps from her, then they could be considered as following her closely.

To put it plainly, they were supervising her.

Occasionally, they would take advantage of Ji Yan being a waste without cultivation and gathered around to discuss about her.

“That Bai Xiu was said to have been targeted by devils before and appeared near the spiritual veins inexplicably. Wasn’t there a saying before that devil energy entered a body and thereby would control one’s mind? The sect leader asked us to look after her, could it be that she had been controlled by the devils?”

“What? If she is really being controlled, will we be in danger?” Someone was very worried, “I heard that Senior Brother Shao was very close to her before, but then his whereabouts were unknown without a reason. Do you think that he was killed by her?”

“It can only control one’s mind but it cannot increase their cultivation. She is a waste so what storm can she create then?” Another person sneered, “If I were her, I would just commit suicide. People with no cultivation are more useless than a lame. I guess it won’t be long before she will be expelled from the sect.”

A moment of silence.

They were not talking loudly. Ji Yan tossed about in bed in the middle of the night and wanted to sit up and shout—Sisters, can you keep a low profile when you’re talking bad about someone behind their back?

She didn’t have any cultivation but she was not deaf.

Couldn’t they let her sleep in the middle of the night?

Ji Yan’s temper had always been very good. To be precise, she was actually not a submissive character but a saint. Everything was philosophical to her that when others were still fighting, she could sleep soundly. Even if she was angered during the day, she would not go without eating or drinking and let herself be aggrieved.

That was also the reason why she could tolerate Yin Xuezhuo. She couldn’t beat her anyway so it’s a waste of expression to be angry at him and she could get herself killed or whatever.

Therefore, it didn’t matter if she was being discussed in private. As long as it was not related to her whole family, she could pretend not to hear them. Anyway, they were discussing Bai Xiu, not Ji Yan.

But Ji Yan couldn’t fall asleep now.

She intentionally turned over her body hard while attempting to make a slight movement but those female disciples were still chatting. Ji Yan was silent for a long time and finally reached the end of her patience. She jumped out of her bed and sat up straight. Before she went over to rip them apart, she heard several sounds of dull crashes.

Yin Xuezhuo retracted his hand and raised the corner of his indifferent eyes. He snorted, “Noisy.”

Devil Lord Yin couldn’t stand it anymore.

It was the first time he saw someone noisier than Ji Yan that made him have the urge to kill them.

Ji Yan hurried over to check it, then only she let out a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the Devil Lord had a sense of propriety and only knocked them out.

“Let’s go while they’re still unconscious.” Yin Xuezhuo grabbed the quilt through the air, wrapped Ji Yan quickly and flew out with her in his arms.
