The Villain Pleads With the Heroine To Kill Him

“Father, Mother, you’re here?” Hearing the voice, Qin Lu and Ye Qingcheng confirmed that the little thing in front of them was indeed their ‘child’.

“Little Gu, what happened to you? How did you become like this?” Ye Qingcheng felt some heartache; her good child actually became like this!

“Father, I wanted to refine some pills, but it suddenly exploded.”

“Refining pills? Little Gu, you know how to refine pills?” Qin Lu and Ye Qingcheng were perplexed. In the entire Holy Maiden Sect, there were many people who could refine pills, but this child, Little Gu, actually knew how to refine pills too! This was something they knew nothing about!

“I don’t know!”

“Ah, you don’t know? Then why did you refine pills?”

“I saw the Ninth Elder refine pills like this, so I tried to refine pills.”

“Uh…” The two looked at each other.

“Why did it exploded? The Ninth Elder also refined pills like this, but her furnace didn’t go boom!” Little Gu scratched his little head, very puzzled.

Seeing this little guy trying to imitate the Ninth Elder refining pills, Qin Lu and Ye Qingcheng didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

“Little Gu, tell your father, how do you refine pills?”

“That’s right, I light a fire in the furnace and then throw in the ingredients.”

“Light a fire, throw in the ingredients, what else?” Qin Lu asked again. Refining pills was indeed like this, but what about after that?

“Nothing else! Isn’t refining pills like this?” Little Gu blinked his purple eyes and said with a serious expression.

Qin Lu and Ye Qingcheng were momentarily speechless. If refining pills was really that easy, everyone could do it!

“Father, isn’t refining pills like this?”

“Little Gu, although refining pills is like lighting a fire and then putting in the ingredients, this matter is very complicated.”

“Different ingredients have to be put in at different times. When refining pills, sometimes the fire has to be very big, and sometimes the fire has to be very small. Everything has to be accurate; if it’s wrong, the furnace will explode!”

“So it’s that complicated!” Little Gu suddenly understood. No wonder the pills he refined would explode.

“That’s right, Little Gu, where did you get this furnace and these ingredients? Our Wuchen Peak doesn’t seem to have pill furnaces or ingredients, right?” Ye Qingcheng curiously asked.

“I went to the Ninth Elder to get them.”

“Huh? The Ninth Elder gave it to you? Is the Ninth Elder so generous nowadays? Not only did she give you the pill furnace, but she also gave you the ingredients.” Qin Lu staggered. Although the Ninth Elder’s attitude towards him had changed, it was not to the point where she would be so generous towards him.

She actually handed these things over to Xiao Gu. It was a little unbelievable!

“When I went, the Ninth Elder wasn’t there, so I took it back myself,” Xiao Gu stated.

F*ck, you brat, you actually brought things back like this. How is this taking? This is clearly stealing! It was over, it was over. The Ninth Elder was a person who cherished spirit herbs the most. Now that her pill furnace and spirit herbs have been ruined by Xiao Gu, it would be tragic, and he would probably get scolded to death!

“Xiao Gu, if you take someone else’s things back without their consent, that’s not taking, that’s stealing.”

“It’s wrong to steal from others!”

“Oh, Xiao Gu understands.”

“It’s good that you know. You can’t refine pills anymore. Father will take the rest back to the Ninth Elder. You should also go with me. When the time comes, you can properly apologize to the Ninth Elder.” After Qin Lu finished speaking, he put away the spiritual herbs and took the pill furnace with him.

While Qin Lu was doing that, Ye Qingcheng took Xiao Gu to take a bath. Such a cute little beast, was actually blasted black and swarthy. It was really unsightly.

Pill Queen Valley. The Ninth Elder was sitting on a chair with a gloomy face. Below her stood dozens of disciples. “Tell me, where did my pill furnace and spirit herbs go?”

Last night, her pill furnace and spirit herbs were prepared. She was just waiting to get up early in the morning to refine pills, but once she woke up, the pill furnace was gone, and the spirit herbs also disappeared without a trace.

Except for the time when the demons came to steal her spirit herbs and pills, there had never been a theft in Pill Queen Valley. This time, it unexpectedly disappeared. Not only did she lose her spirit herbs, but even the pill furnace she often used to refine pills was gone.

If this thief is not caught and severely punished, more of her things will be lost in the future.

Speaking of which, dozens of disciples were reprimanded by the Ninth Elder. One by one, they lowered their heads and remained silent, not daring to make a sound. They also wanted to know who stole the Ninth Elder’s spirit herbs and pill furnace.

The Ninth Elder was the only elder in their Holy Maiden Sect who was good at refining pills. Eighty percent of the pills in the Holy Maiden Sect came from the Ninth Elder. If the Ninth Elder was angry and refused to refine pills, then they would be the ones to suffer.

Who was it? Who was so bold as to steal the Ninth Elder’s things? At this moment, two auras attracted everyone’s attention. They all looked up and saw Senior Sister Qingcheng and Junior Brother Qin Lu coming.

Seeing them come over, the Ninth Elder was stunned for a moment, then stood up. “Why are you two here?”

“Elder Sun, what’s happening?”

“Hey, improper management, there’s a thief in Pill Queen Valley!”

“Elder Sun, did you lose the pill furnace and spirit herbs?”

“Yes, I lost more than thirty spirit herbs and the pill furnace I often use. Hey, how did you know that I lost the pill furnace and spirit herbs?” The Ninth Elder was stunned. The place where they lived was still some distance away from here. The news shouldn’t have spread so fast. How did he know?

“Elder Sun, I am here to apologize to you for this matter.”

“Apologize? Why are you apologizing? Don’t tell me you took my spirit herbs and pill furnace?”

“Uh, you can say that!”

“Ah, Senior Sister Qingcheng actually took Master’s spirit herbs and pill furnace. Why didn’t you say so earlier? You caused us to be punished here!” The dozens of women grumbled.

Senior Sister Qingcheng, you’re not kind!

“Qingcheng, what’s the matter? If you need any pills, just tell me. Why did you secretly take the spirit herbs and pill furnace? Did you want to refine pills yourself?”

“It’s Xiao Gu who wanted to refine pills!”

“Xiao Gu?” Sun Siyao and the disciples present were stunned. Xiao Gu, wasn’t that Senior Sister Qingcheng’s little cute beast? It actually wanted to learn how to refine pills. A little beast wanting to refine pills—this was too unbelievable!

“Xiao Gu, were you the one who took my spirit herbs and pill furnace?” Sun Siyao asked.

“Yes, I came to take them last night. I saw that you were asleep, so I walked back by myself!”

“You want to refine pills?”

“Yes.”

“Why do you want to refine pills? What kind of pills do you want to refine?” Although she was a little angry, when she thought that this little beast wanted to refine pills, she immediately became interested.

“Mother’s health is not good, so I want to refine some pills for her so that she can recover quickly.”

“Ah, your mother’s health is not good?”

“What happened? Qingcheng, are you injured?” Sun Siyao was stunned and then looked at Ye Qingcheng.

“No, I’m not injured.” Ye Qingcheng was also confused.
