I became a villain master, but I conquered the heroine

After finishing the work over there, it was already dark when Yuanchu returned to his own yard in Qingqi Peak.

The whole yard was silent, the only sound being the light footsteps she made on the bluestone road.

Yuanchu felt that she was now just like a complaining worker who was squeezed to the bone by the black-hearted capitalists.

In modern times, she would definitely be a "model worker". She would run around every day without taking a break. Even the donkey in the production team would not work as hard as her.

Yuanchu sometimes wondered if she must have violated the heavenly rules in her previous life, and that was why she had to be punished like this in this life. What a sin!

She saw that the little apprentice's room was still lit. Yuanchu's eyelashes trembled. She didn't know how the little apprentice was doing now.

During these long and boring years, at least he still had a little apprentice to accompany him, which gave Yuanchu a little comfort.

The little apprentice is the person with whom she has the deepest ties in this world, so she often thinks that she should not only think about the mission, but should consider the little apprentice more, but things always go against her wishes.

She has been too busy these days and has no time to care about the healthy development of her little apprentice, but it should be soon.

The new elder should be able to take her place soon, and she will be able to have some free time again soon. Thinking of this, Yuanchu felt more hopeful.

On the other side, Gu Xi, who had just finished meditating in the room, felt a little resentful towards his master Yuanchu, but then he calmed down and began to think about another strange thing.

For some reason, the spiritual power I have cultivated over the past month has not increased.

But apart from the fact that the spiritual power he cultivated disappeared inexplicably and without a trace, there was no apparent discomfort in his body.

Gu Xi always felt that there was something she had overlooked, but she couldn't find any actual evidence, which was really strange.

But she didn't dare tell Yuanchu. She was afraid that there was something wrong with her cultivation and that she would disappoint her master, so she chose to remain silent.

These days, Gu Xi has been running to Meili Snow Mountain, and every time he comes back he is covered in injuries.

Disciples from all the peaks of Kunlun Sect speculated whether Gu Xi was rejected by his master Yuanchu, which led him to do such a dangerous thing.

After all, no normal master would let his disciple go to the snowy mountains for training, it would be a living torture.

Those who used to envy Gu Xi for having a master who protected her so well, have all restrained their envy, and some even expressed sympathy for Gu Xi.

Rumors spread behind the scenes, from one person to ten, from ten to a hundred, from a hundred to a thousand, becoming more and more exaggerated and outrageous.

But Gu Xi, who was in the vortex of rumors, was not affected, and she didn't have much energy to care about so many things.

Besides, she would not believe what everyone said. In comparison, she would rather believe that her master was really trying to hone herself.

She believed that her master would never have the intention to harm her. It was like that in the past, it is like that now, and it will definitely be like that in the future.

This confidence not only came from Gu Xi's heart, but also came from her unreserved trust in Yuan Chu.

Over the past month, Gu Xi has made rapid progress. He fights monsters on the snowy mountains every day and has learned many close combat techniques against monsters.

He recognized many spiritual plants and fruits unique to the snow-capped mountains, and mastered the art of keeping out the cold.

Gu Xi went to the Meili Snow Mountain day after day to look for the two materials, and never complained or expressed dissatisfaction in front of others.

Just a few days ago, Gu Xi went to Meili Snow Mountain again as usual, with ease and ease.

But this time she suddenly found the trace of the Xuantian Purple Spirit Snow Fruit. It turned out that the Xuantian Purple Spirit Snow Fruit grew around the waterfalls in the snow mountains.

The waterfall was previously covered by the mountain, and Gu Xi had not noticed that there was a waterfall on the side of the snow forest. It was only by chance that he realized that there was a steep waterfall spanning dozens of meters there.

As the ice and snow melt into water, the huge height difference causes the water to rush down the mountain wall. Under the reflection of the sun, the waterfall looks like a silver crystal ribbon woven together.

Like a gigantic silver dragon, it poured down from the sky, with a mighty force, the water roared into the cold pool below, making a roar that resounded through the sky and splashing countless crystal water droplets.

Around the cold pool under the waterfall, Gu Xi found the trace of the Xuantian Purple Spirit Snow Fruit, but was blocked by a spirit beast with a cultivation level comparable to that of the Golden Core Stage.

Just as Gu Xi was about to get close and pick the Xuantian Purple Spirit Snow Fruit, a huge column of water spurted out from afar, blocking Gu Xi's way.

Gu Xi was directly knocked back several meters by the water column, making her feel dizzy.

A spiritual beast covered in scales and more than ten feet tall suddenly emerged from the cold pool at the bottom of the waterfall.

When Gu Xi came to his senses, he saw that the water column was actually gushing out from a strange-looking spirit beast. When the spirit beast finished spraying water, a rumbling sound came from its nasal cavity.

Looking at the spirit beast in this state, Gu Xi's heart suddenly tightened. This spirit beast possessed the strength of the Golden Core Stage, while he himself was only at the Foundation Establishment Stage.

But if he wants to get the Xuantian Purple Spirit Snow Fruit, he must fight with this spirit beast.

Gu Xi stood by the cold pond, ready to attack the spirit beast.

Immediately afterwards, a stream of water carrying powerful spiritual energy rushed straight to her face.

Gu Xi dodged sideways, turned her chest to block the attack, and quickly moved away from the water column. She gathered her spiritual power, turned her wrist, and drew her sword with all her might.

The spirit beast was also very fast and followed to block.

The sword in Gu Xi's hand trembled violently, and then he stabbed out with his backhand. The spirit beast dodged and attacked again, with more and more impatient and brutal moves.

Gu Xi's eyes narrowed, he raised his sword and stabbed it back, stabbing the spirit beast in the back.

The spirit beast felt pain, its eyes turned bloodshot, and it howled in anger.

Then the spirit beast lowered its head and stretched its head to the edge of the cold pond. It suddenly dived into the water and gulped down a large mouthful of water. The water column then spurted out like an arrow.

Gu Xi put the two fingers of both hands together, overlapped them, poured his spiritual power into the sword, and began to recite the magic formula silently.

The long sword standing in the air quickly spun, and only a sword shadow could be seen forming a closed loop, blocking the attack of the water column.

Although Gu Xi had grown rapidly, he was still too weak in front of the Jindan-stage spirit beast. Gu Xi gradually overdrew his spiritual and physical strength and soon could not hold on any longer.

The most important thing is that Gu Xi always felt that the spiritual power in his body had not been fully utilized, as if it was held back by something.

With the last blow, the spirit beast knocked her away. Gu Xi fell to the ground, sweat pouring down her forehead, and her face was pale with an abnormal redness.

She supported herself with the sword, her palms covered in blood, and stood up shakily. She pursed her lips, and blood flowed down the corners of her mouth, which she then gently wiped away.

Gu Xi was unwilling to give in, unwilling to admit defeat, and unwilling to accept his fate, and stabbed the spirit beast with another sword.

Yuan Chu, who was far away at Chaoyang Peak, felt inexplicably nervous.

After a while, the system called out in my mind: "Host, it's not good, the heroine is in danger in the snowy mountains!"

"What!" Yuanchu jumped up from her seat. Without even having time to greet the other elders, she went straight out of Chaoyang Peak and flew straight to Meili Snow Mountain.
