Villain: I Possess The Dragon Yang Dao Physique, All Saintesses Turns Into Villainesses Chapter 193
Chapter 193: Gleaning Luck from the Blessed Maiden, Zhao Yunji’s Gift
A daughter of luck could only have her Luck gleaned once a day. To accumulate more, Lin Qi’an needed to be persistent and make regular visits.
He decided to stop by Zhao Yunji’s place first, then visit Zhao Qingng afterward. Otherwise, he might not make it back in ti, as Zhao Qingng had a habit of insisting he stay over.
—
Since returning from the Forbidden Zone, Zhao Yunji had been in a constant daze. Strange phenona often plagued her, such as Lin Qi’an’s figure inexplicably appearing in her mind at night.
After much internal struggle, she finally admitted the truth—she liked him. There was no other explanation.
Lin Qi’an was simply too outstanding. In the entire Canglan Dao Domain, who wouldn’t be smitten by him unless they were bound by religious vows?
He had singlehandedly upheld the dignity of the Canglan Dao Domain, subduing the prodigies of the Tianhai Dao Domain entirely.
Yet, his excellence was only a small part of her feelings. The real cause of her budding affection lay in all the little monts they had shared.
For instance, during the Grand Hunt, Lin Qi’an had saved her by shielding her from the Purple Heaven Divine Thunder, holding her tightly. Or the ti they sailed across the lake, studying thunder techniques together in his Lotus Realm, where she had seen things she shouldn’t have.
Not to ntion their cooperation in the Forbidden Zone, where they wielded an Emperor Weapon to defeat the Emperor Corpse and escaped the Blood Sea together.
“He’s supposed to be my fiancé…” she murmured, her thoughts tinged with bitterness. Zhao Yunji was especially indignant about losing him to her younger sister.
Yet, approaching Lin Qi’an herself was unthinkable for soone with her pride, especially since she wasn’t strong enough. She couldn’t shalessly chase after him unless she beca stronger.
“I must grow stronger!” With this conviction, she began planning her next steps.
To elevate her thunder techniques, she had two options: delve deeper into Lin Qi’an’s Thunder Emperor Technique or cultivate in the Thunder Pool of the Tianhai Dao Domain.
However, she couldn’t pursue both simultaneously, which only added to her frustration.
—
“Your Highness, the Crown Prince has co to visit,” a servant announced.
“Lin Qi’an? Let him in,” Zhao Yunji replied, quickly suppressing her private thoughts and regaining her dignified composure. Dressed in a luxurious golden gown, she exuded nobility and elegance befitting the most beautiful woman of the Canglan Dao Domain.
“Lin Qi’an, do you need sothing?” she asked, her voice calm yet curious.
“Not really. Just ca to see you. Hmm, not bad.” Lin Qi’an casually patted her shoulder, as if greeting a friend.
Zhao Yunji: ???
Ding! Successfully absorbed Luck 20.
“Alright, I’ll be off now,” Lin Qi’an said, turning to leave.
Still bewildered, Zhao Yunji quickly called after him, “Wait! What are your plans going forward?”
“My plans? Nothing special.” Lin Qi’an kept his true intentions secret, wary of the Great Emperors in the Tianhai Dao Domain targeting him.
“Well… I’m planning to visit the Tianhai Dao Domain,” Zhao Yunji admitted, biting her lip. “The Thunder Pool there is perfect for my cultivation. Perhaps this will be goodbye for a long ti.”
Her tone was lancholic, but Lin Qi’an simply smiled. “If fate allows, we’ll et again. Don’t worry too much.”
“I’m not worried!” she shot back, quickly retrieving a jade pendant strung with a red cord from her robes.
“Take this. Keep it safe,” she said, handing it to him.
“A jade pendant? What’s this for?” Lin Qi’an asked, puzzled.
“It’s just a simple pendant. Consider it a token of gratitude for saving my life in the Forbidden Zone,” she replied nonchalantly.
“Alright, I’ll take it then,” Lin Qi’an said, pocketing the pendant.
Just then, Bai Jiuli’s voice sounded in his mind. “That’s no ordinary pendant. It’s called the Tianhai Heart-Guarding Jade, capable of blocking one fatal attack. It’s a lifesaver in critical monts.”
“That valuable?” Lin Qi’an was surprised.
“Tsk, tsk. Such a precious gift, and yet you’ve chard another girl. You really leave no hearts unbroken,” Bai Jiuli teased.
Lin Qi’an said nothing, choosing not to expose Zhao Yunji’s true intentions. Instead, he left her residence quietly.
The Celestial Heart-Guarding Jade had been Zhao Yunji’s protective treasure since childhood, capable of deflecting even the deadliest attacks. Despite its value, she gave it away without hesitation. Yet, her heart was heavy with disappointnt.
“He couldn’t even give a small parting gift,” she thought, fuming.
At that mont, her maid Xiaocui entered the room.
“Your Highness, is this what the Crown Prince left for you? Why is it on the table?”
“What?!”
Zhao Yunji hurried over, her eyes widening in shock. On the table lay a jade slip—one containing the Thunder Emperor Technique.
“He… he left the Thunder Emperor Technique?” Her voice trembled, her eyes growing misty.
This parting gift was far too valuable.
“Your Highness, what’s wrong…?”
“Nothing! Leave be,” Zhao Yunji said, turning away to hide her emotions. Taking a deep breath, she smiled faintly, her beauty radiant and intoxicating.
“At least he has a conscience.”
—
“So this is how the younger generation expresses their feelings,” Bai Jiuli chuckled softly. “The gifts only grow more extravagant.”
Lin Qi’an had no use for the Thunder Emperor Technique. He could simply use Villain Points to enhance his abilities. The Thunder Emperor’s path was better suited for Zhao Yunji, and she was the most appropriate person to inherit it.
“Are you jealous?”
“Do you think that’s possible? I’ve seen more of the world than you can imagine. Why would I be jealous of such trivial matters?”
“Then here’s the question—have you ever been in a relationship?”
“…” Bai Jiuli fell silent, montarily at a loss.
The truth was, she hadn’t. She’d always felt no man was worthy of her, and no one ever caught her eye.
“A pure-hearted old fox, huh? Hilarious!”
“Watch your mouth, brat…”
—
Afterward, Lin Qi’an made his way to Zhao Qingng’s residence. As expected, he didn’t co out for the rest of the day.
Zhao Qingng had her own take on the situation: “You touched , and now you think you can leave without giving sothing in return? Dream on!”
Helpless, Lin Qi’an had no choice but to leave her sothing behind. There was no other way. That evening, while they were talking, Lin Qi’an revealed his plans to visit the Tianhai Dao Domain, trusting Zhao Qingng enough to confide in her.
After all, this sly little vixen was cunning enough to figure it out eventually.
“Go ahead, but try to stop adding won to your collection. I don’t want to see more courtyards popping up in your Lotus Realm next ti you return.”
“Am I that kind of man? You underestimate too much!”
“You are,” Zhao Qingng replied with a blank expression.
“You’re amazing. You guessed right, babe.”
“You’re done for!”
—
The next morning…
Lin Qi’an fled Zhao Qingng’s residence in a hurry, looking utterly disheveled, as if he’d battled a hundred rounds in a spider’s den.
One word sumd it up: exhausting!
anwhile, several Great Emperors were still waiting for their god sons to erge from the Forbidden Zone. But as ti dragged on, they were forced to confront the reality—they weren’t coming out. They were dead.
“I still don’t understand. How could that weaker girl make it out alive, but not a single one of our divine sons?” the Kui Dragon Emperor muttered, utterly baffled and desperate for answers.
At one point, he had even questioned Zhao Yunji, one of the survivors. Her response was the sa: “I don’t know.”
That single sentence dismissed the deaths of the god sons from the Tianhai Dao Domain, leaving its mbers fuming with rage.
“There’s another option. We question that other girl,” the Kui Dragon Emperor suggested during a discussion with the Golden Crow Patriarch.
“You think she knows, or that she’ll tell the truth?”
“We can use Soul Searching! Our people cannot die without reason.”
Soul Searching was a thod that left no room for lies. They didn’t dare use it on Lin Qi’an or Zhao Yunji, but the girl nad Yu Xianglan lacked a powerful background and was easy to manipulate.
With their decision made, the Kui Dragon Emperor dispatched a Saint to handle the matter personally. The Saint infiltrated Yu Xianglan’s courtyard with ease.
“Who’s there?!” Yu Xianglan barely managed to speak before the Saint’s overwhelming power immobilized her. Unable to move or call for help, she was helpless as a terrifying spiritual force surged into her mind.
The Soul Search began.
After a while, the Saint left, leaving the unconscious Yu Xianglan behind as he hurried to report back.
“What did you find? Did you uncover the truth?”
“Nothing… She genuinely doesn’t know the whereabouts of the god sons.”
“What?!”
It was inconceivable, but the Saint’s findings confird it—Yu Xianglan knew nothing. If she didn’t know, then it was possible Lin Qi’an didn’t know either. Reluctantly, the Kui Dragon Emperor was forced to accept this reality.
“Hey, Fox, are you sure that mory-altering technique of yours is as flawless as you claim? What if it didn’t work?” Lin Qi’an asked, a hint of concern in his tone.
Tampering with mories wasn’t sothing just anyone could do. It was an ability even most Great Emperors wouldn’t bother to learn.
“Relax. When I act, there’s no room for error,” Bai Jiuli replied smugly, her confidence unwavering.
