After Defying the Villain’s Fate for Nine Lifetimes, the Heroines Turn Mad!

Chapter 113



Gu Changqing felt that the Old Ancestor was wrong.

What did he mean by ‘your main peak’?

Although he was the Sect Master of the Jiuyan Sect, the Jiuyan Sect was founded by the Old Ancestor.

Specifically speaking, the owner of the main peak should be the Old Ancestor, right?

The Old Ancestor had been lying in the jade coffin under the main peak all year round, which was the best proof.

This was quite unreasonable.

The appearance of the Jiuyan Old Ancestor made Xiao Hongyi subconsciously shrink her neck.

Obviously, even though she was mad and her heart consumed by phoenix blood, she still respected and feared the Old Ancestor.

Directly insulting him was something she only dared to vent about in the nine cycles of reincarnation.

“Hongyi,” the floating Old Ancestor suddenly called out.

“I’m here!”

Although her expression was indifferent, Xiao Hongyi still reflexively tensed up.

Seeing Jiang Chen glance at her, she added emotionlessly, “Well, what does it matter if I am here or not?”

“…”

The Jiuyan Old Ancestor was speechless.

Jiang Chen gave his master a thumbs up!

What a fierce person!

Although this was his first time meeting the Jiuyan Old Ancestor in nine cycles of reincarnation, through the original story, he naturally knew how formidable this dying old man was.

Let’s not talk about how many years the Jiuyan Old Ancestor had lived, that’s just one point.

The Jiuyan Old Ancestor was the only cultivator in the Central Domain who was above the four upper realms!

Don’t be fooled by the old man’s appearance of being close to death: if he really started fighting, the Old Ancestors of the other sects in the Central Domain wouldn’t stand a chance even if they’re tied together!

In the original story, the Jiuyan Old Ancestor took action twice.

The first time was before the end of his life.

After Jiang Chen was expelled from his sect, Lin Feng’s growth accelerated.

While continuously gaining opportunities, he also made enemies everywhere, leading the Jiuyan Sect to be gradually isolated by the other righteous sects of the Central Domain.

Worried about the sect’s potential destruction after his death, the Jiuyan Old Ancestor began to scheme.

He first feigned death to deceive various Demonic Sects, leading ten sects to attack.

At the critical moment, he suddenly ‘came back to life’, severely injuring the Old Ancestors of the Myriad Dao Demon Sect, Ghost Controlling Sect, and other ten Demonic Sects with one move.

His wild laughter echoed throughout the Central Domain.

This battle also drastically reduced his lifespan.

The second time was after his death.

After confirming his demise several times, the vengeful Demonic Sects almost came out in full force while the righteous sects watched indifferently.

Little did they know that although the Jiuyan Old Ancestor had died, he left behind a remnant soul.

Although the combat power of that remnant soul was not as strong as when he was alive and not conscious, it only took a few moves to severely injure all the Demonic Sect Old Ancestors and even kill several!

That battle greatly weakened the strength of the Central Domain Demonic Sects.

Although they believed that the Jiuyan Old Ancestor should be completely dead this time, to be on the safe side, the Demonic Sects no longer dared to attack in full force.

Instead, they changed their strategy and gradually ousted the Jiuyan Sect from the ranks of the top sects in the Central Domain.

However, this also brought enough time for Lin Feng’s growth and the Jiuyan Sect’s resurgence.

Undeniably, the Jiuyan Old Ancestor was a great figure in the Central Domain, but Jiang Chen did not admire him before.

Because this Jiuyan Old Ancestor was originally a cultivator from the Upper Domain!

The path of cultivation is such that to advance is to live and to retreat is to die.

Jiuyan Old Ancestor’s move from the Upper Domain to the Central Domain was already a resignation, having lost the will to ascend and only wishing to cling to life.

But now, he felt he was wrong! Because the eyes of this old man were set on defying the heavens!

He was not the kind of person who just wanted to cling to life as he had thought!

In fact, Jiang Chen did have some fondness for the Jiuyan Old Ancestor. After all, hoping to protect him, the Jiang family would not have been able to make him a disciple of the Jiuyan Sect if not for the Jiuyan Old Ancestor’s approval.

He believes the Jiuyan Old Ancestor was very clear about the risks involved.

Furthermore, in the original story, the Jiuyan Old Ancestor and Jiang Chen’s father had fought side by side, so there was some camaraderie.

Indeed, in the nine cycles of reincarnation, the Jiuyan Old Ancestor had never really looked after Jiang Chen, but compared to those who always misunderstood and blamed him, it was already much better.

Besides, Jiang Chen was also puzzled.

The character setting of this Jiuyan Old Ancestor was a bit off!

According to the original story, the Jiuyan Old Ancestor was calm as still water, unaffected by honor or disgrace and as untroubled as a deep well, but at this moment…

Thinking of this, Jiang Chen glanced at the Jiuyan Old Ancestor again.

Hmm, his aura was still volatile, and he was puffing his beard and glaring.

Especially after hearing Xiao Hongyi’s words, Jiuyan Old Ancestor’s white eyebrows trembled slightly, and his white beard and his chest kept heaving.

He was the spitting image of an irritable old man!

‘Could he have gone mad too? Is the poisonous buff added by the system so powerful that it could drive even a man of iron will like Jiuyan Old Ancestor insane?’

Jiang Chen thought to himself.

Perhaps sensing that Jiang Chen was looking at him with a strange expression, the Jiuyan Old Ancestor fell silent for a while, feeling that he indeed needed to compose himself.

But he was furious!

Although only a few moments had passed in the real world, his lifespan had been directly reduced by several years!

After four times, he now had only a few years left to live.

He might die even earlier in this life than in the previous nine…

Despite this, he didn’t blame Jiang Chen because his life was already nearing its end.

In fact, he would die content if he could learn the truth of this world before dying.

But was there really a need for him to watch it over and over again?

He hadn’t done anything bad!

The first few times were bearable, but this time, he had to watch his descendants go mad and be scolded by Xiao Hongyi.

Had anyone considered the feelings of an old man on the brink of death?

If it weren’t for his truly resilient nature, he might have actually gone mad this time!

Feelings of grievance, helplessness, and resignation surged in the heart of the Jiuyan Old Ancestor.

He wanted to communicate with Jiang Chen, but for a moment, he didn’t know what to say.

In the end, he could only sigh and turn his head after a bout of swallowing his words.

Then he glanced at Jiang Chen again and sighed, repeating this more than ten times.

‘You must be seriously ill!’ Jiang Chen cursed inwardly.

He was very experienced with the state, actions, and words of those driven mad.

A madman would never hesitate to speak like this, looking aggrieved like a wronged little wife!

Therefore, the Jiuyan Old Ancestor probably wasn’t insane, but he was definitely sick!

“Jiang Chen, I have fought side by side with your father and shared a brotherly bond,” the Jiuyan Old Ancestor finally spoke.

“My father has mentioned this,” Jiang Chen replied with a composed expression.

“After you became a disciple of the Jiuyan Sect, although I spent most of my time in… in a feigned slumber! I had instructed others not to be overly harsh or biased against you,” the Jiuyan Old Ancestor spoke again.

Jiang Chen knew about this from the original story and nodded in thanks.

“As the Old Ancestor of the Jiuyan Sect and with my life nearing its end, I cannot be partial. Everything must be done according to the sect’s rules…” the Jiuyan Old Ancestor continued.

Sect rules?

These two words made Jiang Chen frown.

Suddenly, he found the old man before him less agreeable.

Because in the nine cycles of reincarnation, everyone who mentioned the sect rules to him wanted to punish him.

“Does the Old Ancestor mean that my crime is unforgivable and must be severely punished?” Jiang Chen asked in return.

Upon hearing this, Gu Changqing, who was still in a dazed state, immediately brightened up! Xiao Hongyi’s beautiful eyes flashed with anger again.

The elders and disciples of the Ninth Peak looked solemn and trembled with fear.

Everyone understood that if the Jiuyan Old Ancestor personally punished Jiang Chen, no one could resist.

Under the watchful eyes of all.

“No, what I mean is,”

The Jiuyan Old Ancestor took a deep breath and said earnestly, “Would you be willing to take me as your Master and, from then on, be above the sect rules, with no one else qualified to punish you except for me?”

These words shocked everyone!

Gu Changqing was confused again.

If this were true, then Jiang Chen would leap from being a true disciple of the Ninth Peak to a true disciple of the Old Ancestor!

In terms of seniority, he would be even higher!

Xiao Hongyi was utterly unwilling.

She knew she had been a negligent master, but even the Old Ancestor couldn’t compete with her for her disciple!

Just as the phoenix fire on her body flared up again, intending to take Jiang Chen and run away.

“Hongyi, your filial piety has deeply moved me,” the Jiuyan Old Ancestor murmured softly with a poetic tone.

As he spoke, the phoenix fire on Xiao Hongyi’s body extinguished itself, retracting rapidly as if encountering a natural predator.

She stood frozen in place as if imprisoned by the world, unable to move.

Looking at the equally shocked Jiang Chen, the Jiuyan Old Ancestor smiled with satisfaction, feeling assured.

At this moment, he was all in to help Jiang Chen, an act no less than defying the heavens!

He believed that he wouldn’t have to witness the nine cycles of reincarnation anymore.

After all, that mysterious power must have wanted to use him to help Jiang Chen, not to drive himself mad!

Once the goal was achieved, there was no reason or logic to force him to watch the nine cycles of reincarnation with his life on the line.

‘Perfect.’

The Jiuyan Old Ancestor stroked his beard and nodded, feeling it was a smart move.
