A Smile From the Villain [BL]

ASV Chapter 25: Mistake

Translator: Chrysanthemum Bud

Shen Feixiao didn't know what was wrong with him. After Qin Kaiyi went out, he began to cultivate. However, he didn't know why, but his originally clear state of mind experienced intense fluctuations.

The eggplant was aware of Shen Feixiao's abnormality, and it circled around Shen Feixiao anxiously. It knew what happened to Shen Feixiao's body, but couldn't speak the human language. It could only pace around Shen Feixiao, squeaking.

Shen Feixiao sat on the ground, frowning tightly. His originally calm spiritual power became like scaldingly hot boiling water, rolling around in his dantian. The pain from this out-of-control spiritual force had Shen Feixiao involuntarily letting out a painful moan. He gritted his teeth fiercely, and soon bright red blood spilled from the corner of his mouth.

It was extremely difficult to break through the Qi Refining Stage to the foundation-building one.

The originally limited sea of qi continued to expand under the impact of spiritual force, and the meridians in the body could not bear the huge spiritual energy infusion, and even showed signs of damage. To some extent, Shen Feixiao's luck this time was not good.

"Mountain Cloud Notes" was originally a practice that went against the natural order. It described a method for gathering auras, which was enough for an ordinary cultivator to practice in even those places that had the lowest amount of spiritual energy. In the Lingshan Sect, because Shen Feixiao lived in place without much spiritual qi, he didn't feel that anything was wrong. However, after Shen Feixiao entered the spiritual energy-rich secret realm, the power of Mountain Cloud Notes was finally revealed.

Not even half a month had passed, and Shen Feixiao actually rose to the foundation-building period from the Qi Refining period. However, the speed with which he broke through was too great, so that the instability in his foundation was hidden.

And this hidden danger revealed itself completely when Shen Feixiao was about to break through.

Out of control spiritual energy attacked Shen Feixiao's state of mind, causing it to fall into chaos. Opening a pair of bloodshot eyes, Shen Feixiao suddenly smelled a strange fragrance which pulled his precarious mental state back from the edge of the cliff.

What was this smell? Why was it so fragrant? What actually was this... scent. With such thoughts, Shen Feixiao pushed up from the ground, stumbling to follow the wisps of that scent.

The sound of water. Shen Feixiao, who stood on the shore, looked silently at the person bathing in the river.

The man's body could not count as robust, but he was definitely neither thin nor weak. He had a firm physique and stood tall and straight. That skin was very white, but not wan–more like a warm jade, from which a kind of faintly flowing brilliance emitted. That slender body was a lot taller than his own, and clear water slid down the shoulders, flowing along a gracefully-shaped spine and finally reaching a pair of lovely buttocks.

Shen Feixiao never thought that his vision could be this good. Standing in the grass and looking at Qin Kaiyi from afar, he was bewitched for a while. Sluggishly staring at the person bathing in the limpid river water, he silently swallowed his saliva–how fragrant.

Originally having calmed down a little, Shen Feixiao's mental state was broken the moment he saw the person in the river turning around. A golden mask firmly rested on the face of the man, but the beautiful lotus pattern etched on the mask seemed to bring a touch of exotic enticement. That pretty and flirtatious appearance instantly had Shen Feixiao losing his reason.

Shen Feixiao couldn't remember what happened afterwards; with only a rough sense from his chaotic memory... he seemed to have done something he shouldn't have.
