A Smile From the Villain [BL]

ASV Chapter 51

Translator: Chrysanthemum Bud

Shen Feixiao spent six years in God's Medicine Valley.

The wound on his arm already healed by the second month of his stay in this strange place, but Yu Hong, who claimed to be a doctor, still said that he was sick with heart disease.

Shen Feixiao spent four years thinking about this question: what was his heart disease and how was he sick? However, after time passed like running water, as slow and long as a thousand days and nights, Shen Feixiao still did not have his answer. How exactly was he sick?

So Shen Feixiao simply ceased to think about that problem.

After growing up, the teenager was no longer thin, and the stunting caused by his past abuse had been perfectly corrected in these six years. His hair was no longer dry and yellow, nor his body thin and weak. Six years gave Shen Feixiao long black hair like the most beautiful silk, which exuded the gloss of black pearls. A blue hair gauze secured that long hair–if Shen Feixiao didn't say so, no one would think that this gauze was the Rain-Soaked Bell which had transformed from a tool for killing into something soft that could wrap around a finger. What Shen Feixiao learned most from this place which stood aloof from worldly affairs was concealment.

That elegantly slender figure and beautiful face were enough to make all women have a good impression of this boy of an age between his teens and early adulthood. That indifference that he never hid before was finally concealed by those eyes that were brighter than stars.

Shen Feixiao still didn't talk much, but he could smile beautifully.

Time had always been an invincible, matchless force. Six years ago, no one would have imagined that that cold boy with his extreme ways could grow into his present self. Even Yu Hong, who witnessed Shen Feixiao's growth, could only sigh. Some people were born to be dragons.

But looking at Shen Feixiao like this, the anxiety in Yu Hong's heart was getting stronger day by day. Shen Feixiao's heart demons still remained.

"I have a heart demon?" Shen Feixiao put a chess piece in front of him. Those black and white chess pieces paired with his long fingers looked unspeakably attractive. He lowered his head slightly. Instead of looking at Yu Hong standing beside him, he dedicatedly observed the chessboard.

"Yes." Yu Hong was the same as he was six years ago. He had eaten the Face Pellet, and his appearance would not change even a little until he died.

"How do I have heart demons?" Shen Feixiao raised a corner of his mouth, revealing a beautiful arc: "Shifu, you think too much."

Yu Hong sighed heavily. Yes, he had taken Shen Feixiao as a disciple, and wanted to rid him of heart demons as soon as possible. But he did not expect that... the symptoms disappeared inexplicably. Even so, Yu Hong was still certain that Shen Feixiao's demons were not gone, but were suppressed to a deeper place.

"Feixiao, you don't say, you don't understand? Too much obsession will eventually become a demon. Your cultivation speed was too fast, and doesn't conform to the laws of the world at all. If you go on like this, I'm afraid that when you cross from Core Formation to the Nascent Soul stage, you will not be able to withstand the tribulations." Yu Hong persuaded Shen Feixiao many times. Although he knew this was totally useless with Shen Feixiao, he still didn't give up.

"Shifu, I only ask for one thing in this world." Shen Feixiao's eyelashes shuddered, like a black swallowtail butterfly spreading its wings in desire for flight: "Except for this matter, I have no reason to continue."

"This is your heart demon." Hearing Shen Feixiao's words, Yu Hong helplessly shook his head: "The thing you mean, is it the masked man who sent you that day?"
