A Smile From the Villain [BL]

ASV Chapter 10: Demonic Cultivation

"How about it?" It seemed that Zi Yangpei had not given up on luring Qin Kaiyi into being his disciple.

"... Brother Ziyang, let me think about it again," Qin Kaiyi replied with difficulty. Although he did have to step onto the path of demonic cultivation eventually, he did not want to do so under the old monster in front of him!

"Then consider it slowly," Zi Yangpei said with a face full of smiles.

"Brother Zi Yang, what to do about your sable?" Seeing that Zi Yangpei showed no signs of anger, Qin Kaiyi cautiously said, "I really don't know where it ran off to."

"..." As soon as he mentioned the sable, Zi Yangpei's gaze cooled. He checked Qin Kaiyi's dongfu again and confirmed that the spiritual energy he had attached to the sable had almost disappeared.

"Ran away?" Zi Yangpei sneered, seeming to have thought of something: "Don't let me catch you."

"Since the sable has run away, then take me to look around your Lingshan Sect." Qin Kaiyi, who had thought that he could send this honored senior away, was like a deflated soccer ball after hearing this sentence. He itched to roll his eyes, but Zi Yangpei was standing beside him, and Qin Kaiyi didn't dare to go too far. He could only fake a smile and consent.

The Lingshan Sect occupied an area as large as dozens of soccer fields. It was mainly divided into several large blocks. The first block was for dongfus where disciples could practice, the second was for refining medicine and contained fields of spirit grass, and the third was a martial arts training field. These three places occupied half of Lingshan sect, while the other half was a forbidden area full of formations.

The forbidden land was covered by a large formation, and the knowledge of who set up this formation was lost with time. It was said that this formation was set up in ancient times, so the items presumed to be inside of it were even more intriguing.

In the realm of cultivation, the most attractive items were magic weapons and elixirs. Clearly, the ancient immortals arranged formations in order to protect something. Therefore, before the Lingshan sect set rules in place, countless cultivators tried to enter the formation every year. Among those seeking to seize treasures, there were many old monsters in the Nascent Soul stage.1 However, seeing that all who entered encountered difficulties in exiting, the Lingshan School finally panicked. In order to avoid unnecessary losses in their disciples, the first article of the prohibition of the Lingshan Sect banned getting close to the forbidden land–if a disciple were to be found out to have done so, the sect would immediately abolish that disciple's cultivation and expel him from the sect.

This guy Qin Shi entered the forbidden area for Liu Ling'er. If he hadn't been there as a head disciple and received Qing Xuzi's undeserved protection, he might have already become a waste.

Qin Kaiyi walked out with Zi Yangpei, but thought that Zi Yangpei should not have the ability to break the formation now. So what was Zi Yangpei thinking when he woke him up early to take him around the entire sect? Qin Kaiyi really couldn't figure out what confusing thoughts the old monster was considering.

"How long have you been at the Lingshan Sect?" Zi Yangpei began to chat with Qin Kaiyi in a seemingly nonchalant manner.

"Well, it's been a few years," Qin Kaiyi vaguely said, not being stupid enough to lay all his cards on the table.

"How many years?" Zi Yangpei evidently had the requisite intimidating manner to get to the bottom of things.

"Eight or nine years." Qin Kaiyi had no choice but to answer Zi Yangpei's question.
