The Villain Doesn’t Want To Get Entangled With the Beautiful Girl After Rebirth

9. The Senior Brother Actually Has Hidden Depths

The swiftly flying spirit sword kept shaking, and it seemed both of them would fall off. At the critical moment, Lin Nuo calmly channeled his spirit energy and regained control of the flying sword.

Thank goodness, it’s stabilized.

That was close.

Falling from such a height, if not dead, would be crippled, truly a premature demise.

He was a calm antagonist, fearing no one, except for the protagonist Su Kexin, towards whom he instinctively felt a bit of panic, having been stabbed to death by her once, leaving a shadow in his heart.

Just now, his sneak attack almost got discovered, throwing him off balance, and he nearly lost control of the flying sword.

Fortunately, he regained control in time, narrowly escaping disaster.

But where was Su Kexin? Did she fall?

“Senior… brother…”

He heard a soft voice and looked down to find Su Kexin in his arms.

What is this development? He was mere millimeters away from contact with the protagonist Su Kexin?! Only separated by their clothes!

The shy Su Kexin’s cheeks flushed red, her first intimate contact with a male peer.

Just as the spirit sword shook and lost stability, she leaned towards her senior brother. If he hadn’t caught her, she might have fallen.

The heights are cold, and the rapid high-altitude flight had chilled her body. Suddenly falling into her senior brother Lin Nuo’s arms, she felt a comforting warmth.

Is this what it feels like to be embraced by a man?

Ah, what am I thinking?

“Senior brother, I’m sorry!”

Realizing her impropriety, Su Kexin quickly withdrew from Lin Nuo’s embrace, blushing and turning her head away, instinctively avoiding his gaze.

At that moment, Lin Nuo stared at her, silent.

Ah, how awkward. Won’t the senior brother say something?

Recalling the recent incident made her uneasy, and she was unclear about Lin Nuo’s thoughts.

She suddenly realized something strange.

Even though she no longer controlled the spirit sword, how could it still fly steadily?

Only now did she notice that she had left Elder Yuan and the others far behind.

So the recent emergency wasn’t settled by Elder Yuan’s intervention.

Could it be…?

She wanted to conduct a test.

“Sorry, senior brother, I didn’t control it well, almost causing you harm.”

“No, carry on.”

“Okay.”

Su Kexin continued to channel energy, and the spirit sword gradually picked up speed.

Lin Nuo kept assisting her in stabilizing the spirit sword. As Elder Yuan and the others caught up from behind, he temporarily dismissed the thought of betraying her.

Well, there would be other opportunities.

“Senior brother, you’re actually the one helping me control the sword, aren’t you?”

“No, I can’t.” Lin Nuo immediately denied.

“But I’m not controlling it now, and it’s still flying smoothly.”

Lin Nuo was taken aback, then came to his senses, realizing that Su Kexin had stopped channeling energy into the spirit sword.

Damn, this girl is trying to trick me?!

Lin Nuo remained calm: “I don’t know, maybe it’s moving on its own.”

“Alright then.”

Su Kexin also understood what was happening.

Senior brother was cold-mouthed but warm-hearted, not quite honest.

But she was quite grateful to him. She had always been afraid of accidents, not daring to let go and fly. The more nervous she was, the worse her control became. She had practiced the sword-flying technique in private for a long time without much progress. But just now, during the rapid flight, she suddenly found the right feeling.

Just as senior brother said, “Let go of yourself, only when you let go can you fly fast and far.”

Although senior brother was only at the second stage of the spirit realm, he seemed more composed and calm than any other fellow disciple. He had just taught her in a low-key manner, deceiving her by saying Elder Yuan was watching, to let her fly high freely.

In fact, Elder Yuan was left far behind, and she was unaware, it was always senior brother secretly assisting her, continuously encouraging her to speed up, more like a mentor.

Everyone said senior brother was unlearned, but perhaps he was just modestly concealing his true abilities.

“What are you laughing at?”

“Oh, that’s a secret.”

Su Kexin covered her mouth and giggled, a young girl in the bloom of youth with all sorts of secrets hidden in her heart.

Lin Nuo had a bad feeling.

“This girl, she couldn’t have realized my ill intentions, that smile hiding a knife, could she?”

…

As Lin Nuo and the others arrived near Zhuxing Town, Su Kexin was scolded by Elder Yuan for her dangerously fast flying.

Lin Nuo glanced at him, “Old man, just because you can’t race, you curse others, that’s not martial virtue.”

Realizing that Su Kexin suspected his ability to fly with the sword and would likely keep an eye on him, he knew he had to be more discreet. To kill her, he needed a fatal blow; otherwise, with her special physique, a surge in strength could lead to a counterattack, and that would be a dog’s death.

He had been defeated before; even at the peak of the demonic path, he couldn’t kill her in one move. She fought back in a burst, and in the end, he was stabbed to death.

He couldn’t make the same mistake again.

People from various sects had come to Zhuxing Town, hearing that a large number of monsters were rampaging nearby, they all rushed over.

In this world, the reputation of sects and schools was extremely important. Suppressing the calamitous monsters naturally built a good reputation among the people.

Near Zhuxing Town was a forest named Fenghai Forest, the site of the monster outbreak. Generally, the sudden appearance of a large number of monsters indicated a mystery within, possibly a holy demonic object, rare wild herbs, or relics, attracting many sect disciples to explore.

“Elder, you’ve come too.”

“Eh? Isn’t that Elder Wang? What a pleasure, you’ve brought disciples too?”

“Yes, the monsters in Fenghai Forest are causing trouble, it’s a good opportunity to train the youngsters.”

Yuan Heng greeted an old man with white hair respectfully with a smile.

Su Kexin slightly tugged at Liu Shuqin’s sleeve, “Senior sister, who are they?”

Liu Shuqin chuckled, “That’s the Imperial Forest Sect, like us, they are a sect dedicated to saving the world.”

Behind the white-haired old man stood several disciples, each full of spirit and vigor.

【Another nauseatingly righteous sect】

Being a major villain, Lin Nuo had no fondness for the righteous sects.

“Hello, I’m Zhong Ping, their senior brother, pleased to meet you.”

At that moment, a flat-headed, honest-looking, squinty-eyed big fellow came over and bowed respectfully to Lin Nuo and the others, looking very friendly.

“Hello, Mr. Zhong, pleased to meet you.”

Liu Shuqin, on behalf of the disciples of Xuan Yun Sect, greeted Zhong Ping.

Lin Nuo sized up the flat-headed big fellow. He looked honest and reliable, but his only flaw was his squinty eyes, narrowed to a slit.

Elder Yuan took Lin Nuo and the others aside and pulled out several spirit rings from his bag, putting them on their hands.

Once the spirit rings were on, they couldn’t be taken off, as if they were stuck to the body.

Then Elder Yuan gave them a Xuan plate, displaying green dots.

“Once you wear the spirit rings, you can sense the status and approximate location of others. Each green dot represents someone’s status, and if it turns red, it means the body is in danger. Be careful when you enter Fenghai Forest, and if you feel unwell, exit immediately. I’ll be here monitoring your status. Alright, go ahead.”

Elder Yuan stayed in Zhuxing Town, while Lin Nuo and the others went into Fenghai Forest to drive out the monsters and explore the cause of the monster uprising.

Linuo lowered his head to check the Xuanpan.

It’s like a radar, sensing the location and status of others. If someone dies, the green dot probably turns black.

This was extremely disadvantageous for his assassination of Suke Xin; his position was exposed. Even if he managed to kill her, the elder Yuan might find out.

He had to find a way to dismantle this cursed device.
