No one expected this.
A majestic Tier 3 demonic beast was instantly killed with a single sword strike right after making its appearance. Who could have imagined that?
In the distance, Su Xiao's pupils shrank.
Th-th-this, this isn't right, is it?
How did the male lead kill Xiaojiu with one strike? Logically speaking, shouldn't the male lead subdue the berserk griffon, and then Su Qingyun, who was chasing after her spirit pet, would arrive just in time to see this scene and develop romantic feelings for him?
Then, I would just happen to pass by, feel jealous, and couldn't help but step forward to mock the male lead, goading him into attacking, and finally get kicked flying by the male lead using a ghost possession technique, thereby forging a grudge.
But this... he instantly killed someone's spirit beast with a single strike.
How is the script supposed to continue?
The only person who wasn't surprised was probably Qin Ke'er, who had anticipated this.
However, even she hadn't expected Ye Shu to be so ruthless.
On the other side, seeing her spirit pet lying in a pool of blood, Su Qingyun stumbled out of the bushes like a madwoman. She hugged the already stiffening corpse of the griffon and wailed bitterly.
"Xiaojiu!!!"
"Xiaojiu, Xiaojiu, what happened to you? Xiaojiu, say something! Talk to mommy."
"Xiaojiu... Xiaojiu... woo woo woo..."
Meanwhile, looking at this sudden, seemingly crazed woman, Xiao Qingli timidly hid behind Ye Shu.
"Big brother, she's so scary. Qingli is afraid..."
"Don't be afraid."
Ye Shu softly comforted her, reaching out to protect her behind him, and then stared coldly at Su Qingyun.
"Is this beast your spirit pet?"
"I was merely walking here. What is the meaning of you letting your demonic beast attack people for no reason?"
"Have I ever offended you, miss?"
Drowning in the pain of her spirit pet's death, Su Qingyun slowly raised her head. She looked at the culprit who killed Xiaojiu, her eyes bloodshot and her teeth clenched.
"You, you killed him... You killed him..."
"You are a murderer!"
Su Qingyun cried and shouted, "He was just a child! What did he do wrong? How could he suffer such a cruel fate!"
It seems she's another reincarnated female lead.
Ye Shu's expression was indifferent, and he remained silent.
However, Su Qingyun was already somewhat delirious. Xiaojiu had been her companion for many years, and they shared a deep bond. Now that he had died right in front of her, she simply couldn't accept the reality.
"You murderer... you really are no good..."
Su Qingyun choked out, looking up at Ye Shu with eyes full of killing intent.
"I will avenge Xiaojiu!!!"
Before she could finish her sentence—
Slap!
A crisp slap echoed throughout the area. Su Qingyun was sent flying backward, spitting out a few broken teeth. She rolled several times on the grass, one hand ending up behind her back, her right cheek swelling up high like a large steamed bun.
She covered her face, filled with disbelief.
"You, you dare to hit me?"
"Why wouldn't I dare to hit you?"
Ye Shu unhurriedly withdrew his hand and said coldly, "You like walking your dog without a leash? I'm beating up exactly you idiots who walk your dogs without leashes and then try to blame others!"
"This, this..."
Qin Ke'er, hiding in the bushes, was completely stunned.
Fortunately, she hadn't gone out, otherwise she probably wouldn't have escaped a slap either.
Further away, Su Xiao was even more dumbfounded.
What did he just see?
The male lead hit the female lead?
The male lead! Hit! The female lead?!!!
Are you kidding me!!!
Is this the kind of thing that should happen in a novel? It shouldn't be like this! They were supposed to clear up the misunderstanding, let bygones be bygones, fall in love, and then get all intimate.
The script wasn't like this at all!!!
Just as Su Xiao was completely baffled, a cold electronic voice sounded in his ears.
[Host, please complete the plotline.]
[Conflict with the Son of Destiny and forge a grudge.]
"No, is this plotline really correct?" Su Xiao asked through gritted teeth.
[Host, please complete the plotline.]
"Fine, you're so freaking awesome!"
Seeing the system persistently playing dead, Su Xiao was out of options.
Since things had come to this, he might as well just act for now.
He took a deep breath, puffed out his chest, and tried hard to put on an arrogant and domineering posture. Flying over on his sword, he blocked Ye Shu's path.
"Halt!"
He glared fiercely, staring coldly at Ye Shu, first looking at him suspiciously a couple of times.
"You guy... are you that rogue cultivator from the Holy City?!"
"Snatching this young master's Green Lotus Heavenly Fire was one thing, but now you want to join my Azure Profound Sect? And you even injured a disciple of my Azure Profound Sect?"
"A mere rogue cultivator, truly arrogant!"
"I advise you not to make a mistake, quickly apologize to my junior sister!"
"Kneel down and kowtow to her three times, then leave my Azure Profound Sect. We don't accept trash here. As long as this young master is around, don't even think about joining the Azure Profound Sect!"
"You won't pass the disciple recruitment ceremony!"
After finishing his speech, Su Xiao couldn't help but feel proud in his heart.
Standard villain dialogue.
Whether it was the acting, the look in his eyes, the tone of his voice, or anything else, it was all impeccable.
He didn't believe this Son of Destiny could hold back.
Even if the script had a flaw, he was still diligently playing the role of the villain.
Next, all that was needed was for the male lead to explode with power.
Then he would fall to the ground heavily injured.
This wave of the plotline would be pretty much complete.
Come on! Come on quickly!
Su Xiao stared intently at Ye Shu in front of him, his heart full of anticipation: "Come on quickly! Use your ghost possession to hit me, don't pity me just because I'm a delicate flower!!!"
In the distance, Qin Ke'er was dumbfounded.
She watched helplessly as her senior brother jumped up and down like an idiot, even putting on a punchable expression, as if he was afraid others wouldn't hit him.
Is he a clown?
However.
Ye Shu's reaction was even more brilliant.
He simply looked Su Xiao up and down once, then slowly spat out a word.
"Dumbass."
Having said that.
He held Xiao Qingli's hand, turned around, and walked away.
Qingli curiously wanted to turn her head back, but he reached out to stop her: "Be good, Qingli. Don't look. Looking at this kind of dumbass too much will affect your IQ."
"Oh..."
Xiao Qingli obediently turned her head back and stopped looking.
Su Xiao stood frozen in place, the expression on his face changing from anticipation to bewilderment, and from bewilderment to utter confusion.
No, why did he leave?
My performance was so wonderful, Son of Destiny, why did you?
You, who should have cooperated with my performance, chose to turn a blind eye.
Seeing Ye Shu taking Xiao Qingli further and further away, a bewildered Su Xiao scratched his head and muttered to himself in confusion.
"So... did I successfully forge a grudge or not?"
"Whatever, it should count as forging a grudge."
As for why he didn't chase after him to pester him and force a fight with Ye Shu, the reason was very simple.
The system's requirement was—
Conflict and forge a grudge.
Now that he had cursed the guy out, no matter what the other party said, the grudge should be considered forged. Why would he exhaust himself running up there just to get beaten up? Wouldn't that be purely idiotic?
Thinking of this, Su Xiao didn't even spare a glance at Su Qingyun lying on the ground. Ignoring her outstretched hand, he summoned his flying sword with a wave of his hand and departed.
"Time to clock out~"
Su Qingyun stared blankly at his departing figure, completely stunned.

ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on...
