After Defying the Villain’s Fate for Nine Lifetimes, the Heroines Turn Mad! Chapter 29

The young apprentice visibly relaxed after taking back the dicine bowl from Ma Wu.

“Cough! Cough!”

Ma Wu suddenly started coughing.

The abrupt sound startled the young apprentice, causing him to tremble and drop the dicine bowl from his hands.

“Crash—”

The bowl shattered, scattering in all directions.

Ma Wu frowned and turned to look at his apprentice.

That one glance caused the young apprentice to lose his composure, his face turning as pale as paper.

With a ‘thud’, the young apprentice knelt and kowtowed.

“Master! Spare my life, Master! It was all Jiang Chen who forced ! I… I had no choice!”

Jiang Chen?

Hearing this na, Ma Wu’s eyes widened suddenly, and he imdiately made a connection.

Glancing at the broken bowl on the ground, he suppressed his anger and asked, “What have you done?”

“The disciple just… just crushed the pill Jiang Chen gave and mixed it into the dicine bowl earlier. Jiang Chen said that the pill could make you, Master, instantly vigorous and at least ten years younger…”

The young apprentice kowtowed again.

“You!!”

Ma Wu was furious, his eyes blazing with anger.

What vigorous and ten years younger?

He knew at once that these words ant it must be a harmful dicine pill!

Fortunately, although his cultivation was not high, he was a sixth-grade pill refiner, and a re poison pill could easily be forced out of the body with the use of pill fire.

“Jiang Chen really underestimates .”

Ma Wu scoffed while saying to his apprentice, “I know you fear Jiang Chen, but I didn’t expect you to be so terrified. Well, considering you were forced, as your master, I will forgiv…”

Before he could finish, a surge of dicinal power erged from his dantian, rushing to his head through his limbs and bones!

Driven by this dicinal force, he breathed rapidly, drenched in sweat, indeed feeling vigorous as if he had beco ten years younger!

In an instant, Ma Wu thought of the Ma family.

He thought of the Ma family’s cook, the gatekeeper Da Zhuang, and the sister-in-law he used to often bother.

He also thought of…

The Ma family’s big yellow guard dog!

“Not good!”

Ma Wu was alard and sat cross-legged on the bed.

He never expected that the pill he had ingested would be so potent! And take effect so quickly!

Imrsing in his mind, Ma Wu imdiately stimulated the pill fire within his body, hoping to use its power to burn the chaotic heat inside.

The power of the pill fire is related to the grade of the pill refiner.

A sixth-grade pill refiner is already a rare existence in the Central Domain, and the pill fire they possess is naturally extraordinary.

Just as Ma Wu was confident and ready to destroy the dicinal power in one fell swoop, an unexpected event occurred!

Influenced by the dicinal power, the pill fire also started to act abnormally!

It beca overly excited as if it had t a loved one and was ready to dance!

The next second, the pill fire went out of control, perfectly rging with the dicinal power, running wild through the ridians, quickly beginning to seep into the soul, gnawing at the mind, and penetrating deep into the marrow!

“Heart-Devouring Soul-Bewitching Pill!!”

Ma Wu cried out in shock!

It was only then that he rembered an important issue.

Being a sixth-grade pill refiner himself, how could he not have noticed sothing odd in the dicine bowl?

Not only did he not notice, but he also drank it directly!

This could only an…

The pill that Jiang Chen tricked him into taking was a poison pill of a grade higher than six, with extrely potent and concealed toxicity!

The Heart-Devouring Soul-Bewitching Pill was precisely of the seventh grade!

Ma Wu panicked.

Just monts ago, he was planning to use the Heart-Devouring Soul-Bewitching Pill to expose Jiang Chen’s true colors.

Who would have thought that he himself would have taken it by now!

As a pill refiner, he naturally knew the effects of the Heart-Devouring Soul-Bewitching Pill.

A slight mishap could lead to a loss of reputation and social death!

Suddenly turning his head, he looked at his young disciple and roared angrily, “You dare to collude with Jiang Chen to poison your master?! Unforgivable!”

“Master, please spare my life!”

The young disciple begged again, “Jiang Chen threatened with the lives of my family mbers outside our sect. I had no choice but to comply! The Jiang Family is too powerful, so I can’t fight them!”

“Not only you’re as cowardly as a mouse, but you also help a tiger hunt! Jiang Chen is ruthless and inhumane! Do you think he will let you go after this? How can he hide his despicable actions if you remain?”

Ma Wu roared again.

“This disciple is not stupid. I obviously know all of this. But by doing so, only I would die, yet it could save the lives of my family mbers,” the young disciple replied.

Ma Wu closed his eyes, montarily speechless.

Perhaps having resigned himself to his fate, the young disciple suddenly stood up, his face no longer showing any fear, replaced instead by hate!

Bitter, teeth-gritting hate!

Looking straight at Ma Wu, he hysterically said:

“Master, you’re so noble! You’re so great! Even now, you’re still scolding !”

“Great! Really great! But have you ever thought about my situation?”

“Do you know how I’ve been bullied? Just because I am your disciple, the disciple of an elder who ‘hates evil as if it were his enemy’! Those disciples you’ve scolded and reprimanded all co to bully !”

“I’m wronged! I haven’t done anything wrong! You want to be the pioneer of righteousness, then go ahead! Why do you have to drag and my family into this?”

“I can’t take it anymore! Better to be dead, then no one will bully anymore!”

“I don’t regret what happened today! You forced to listen to so many grand principles, but today I want to be a bad person! A person who personally betrays his master, a person beyond redemption!”

“You… you…!”

Ma Wu was so angry he couldn’t speak coherently.

He had sworn to never coexist with evil, yet he never imagined that the disciple he had taken in would kneel before evil!

What does it matter if one is bullied or wronged?

For the sake of righteousness! For the sake of the sect, one should be prepared to sacrifice oneself, even to the point of tarnishing one’s own reputation!

“Today! I will cleanse the sect!”

After a roar, Ma Wu leaped up from the bed and swung his left palm toward his disciple’s forehead.

Seeing this, the young disciple closed his eyes in despair.

Indeed, Jiang Chen had forced him, but wasn’t this also a form of rebellion?

Shortly after becoming Ma Wu’s disciple, he had realized. Sooner or later, he would be killed by his own master!

That’s why he was so terrified when he heard that the Ma family had been slaughtered!

But… the anticipated pain did not co.

The young disciple was sowhat surprised and slowly opened his eyes.

Ma Wu was still in front of him, but it seed he had abandoned the idea of ‘cleasing the sect’ and was instead gently caressing his cheek with his remaining left hand.

The palm on his cheek was slightly rough, but the young disciple’s tears fell like rain.

He regretted it.

He truly regretted it!

He could never have imagined that after making such a grave mistake, not only did his master not strike him, but he also forgave him with this gentle caress on the cheek!

The young disciple’s heart was wracked with guilt and self-reproach!!!

After a mont…

“Waahhh——!”

The young disciple cried out loud, once again kneeling and clinging to Ma Wu’s legs, sobbing loudly:

“Master! How can I ever repay your kindness to ?”

“Disciple is wrong! I failed to see the good intentions behind Master’s strictness, and I couldn’t learn Master’s integrity and nobility!”

“I will definitely reform and start anew!”

“I will reflect on myself daily and vow to never coexist with evil!”

“Master, I was wrong!!”

Such sincere and heartfelt words moved the young disciple to tears.

But as soon as the words were spoken, “Hehe… hehehe…”

The strange laughter of Ma Wu echoed.

“???”
