Could it be that I am the cruel villain?

"Peak Master."

"Senior sister, we've completed the check. Senior brother seems perfectly fine, doesn't appear to have been possessed..."

"Indeed, he's exactly the same as before, especially with that weird obsession. Hmph, we can be sure it's him."

"Or is Peak Master planning to interrogate? I've got whips and candles here, do we need to stuff his mouth with socks..."

The girls chirped away, especially Lu Luo who seemed to enjoy stirring up trouble, openly discussing whips and candles, unabashedly speaking vulgarities with not a trace of girl-like reserve.

Ever since coming to the mountain, Lu Luo was undoubtedly the one who adapted the fastest.

Initially, she was not very familiar with Liu Tangxi, and thought this Sword Immortal was aloof and untouchable, very disdainful of their crooked dual cultivation paths.

After all, those who practice Sword Cultivation often have firm morals and are intolerant of impurities, and Purple Cloud Immortal Palace is self-proclaimed as a Reputable Sect, people like her don't stand a chance.

So she spent over a year wandering around outside, running errands for the Mountain Gate, but after living on the mountain for a while...

She discovered they truly didn't despise her.

That's integrity.

It's also why Swordmaster Peak enjoys worldwide fame.

For the first time, Lu Luo met people without racial discrimination. Normally, people would show discomfort when they learn about her crooked ways, let alone inviting her to the mountain, even chatting a bit more might feel unlucky.

But Liu Tangxi remained calm and composed, not pretending but genuinely indifferent. Sometimes, he even proactively asked about her Dual Cultivation Technique.

For instance, asking what insights she gained or how to increase efficiency, directly discussing the advantages and flaws of her technique, suggesting she could share insights with disciples from other sects. Undoubtedly, this was incredibly surprising.

Initially, she thought it was to benefit Jiang Feng, since Jiang Feng's strength far exceeds his realm. Others might become unstable with rapid strength improvement, but definitely not this guy. His control over Spiritual Energy and Daoist Skill levels surpassed those in the same realm.

But then she realized.

He truly treated everyone equally.

While unable to be completely fair, he absolutely treats disciples of the same attitude upon accepting them. And towards junior brothers and sisters, the attitude remains consistent. When she was injured, this Sword Immortal even personally took her out for walks sometimes.

So...

"Hehe, my whip has some barbs, just enough to break the skin without cutting deeply, very fitting, there's no way he won't confess!"

"If he doesn't talk, I've got something special in my Qiankun Bag, self-developed aphrodisiac that makes you feel all tingly and hot, suppresses Spiritual Energy. If you don't release Primordial Yang, lightly the meridians might get damaged, severely you could die suddenly."

"How about binding him and pouring two bottles, one for ingestion and the other for external use, surely that villain will have the time of his life."

"I've got half a bottle of Widow Poison here, targeting cultivators specifically. Even immortals would itch for a while. Peak Master, should we make this brat confess..."

Simply revealing true colors.

With soft chatter, after months of recuperation, Lu Luo's body healed rapidly. Although still unable to walk, her torn muscle tissue and meridians were quickly recovering, and previously broken dozen bones had mostly healed.

Her complexion was rosy, vitality abundant. Whenever Jiang Feng visited her, this vile woman always appeared half-dead, complaining of pain here or there, always asking for a hug.

But now, once in a car scenario, this brat's speed exceeded even an AE86 by eight gears, making even Jiang Feng's jaw drop.

"Wait, you used to tinker with that stuff in the pharmacy?"

His mind went blank.

Even he was unaware of this vile woman's hidden stash, sometimes observing Lu Luo enter the pharmacy for alchemy. After all, she was like Su Yi, her Spiritual Energy aligned with Su Mu, naturally suited to healing the injured.

Initially, he figured this vile woman was tinkering with Spiritual Medicine, who would have thought she was actually concocting... Aphrodisiacs really are Spiritual Medicine; those that stimulate or suppress Spiritual Energy indeed belong to the category of Spiritual Medicine.

A tank directly rolled over several other girls present, Su Yi merely smiled silently, Miss Lin remained quiet. Although a little embarrassed, having cared for Lu Luo for so long, she slowly grew accustomed.

Of course, Liu Tangxi was unfazed, not even a twitch, among those present, the biggest reaction came from.

The newly arrived little princess sister.

"Playing, playing so intensely? Wasn't I supposed to be at Swordmaster Peak, how, how could it be like this, I know she's part of the Demon Race, but this is simply outrageous."

Feeling dizzy, Liang Yu likely hadn't anticipated hearing Lu Luo's few words would be more exhausting than being beaten up by Jiang Feng, her legs felt weak, just imagining the scenario left her breathless.

"Such a confession under duress, if you poured those bottles into him, he'd probably confess to being Xuan Mingzi without hesitation."

Helplessly shaking his head.

"Hehe, that's not a bad idea, anyway, the master confesses, then we'll grab him to find Sect Master for a reward."

No shame, but rather proud. That's how people are, pushing their luck. Once subconsciously making a vulgar joke and seeing Liu Xianzi didn't react, naturally came a second and third time.
