Blame the Villain – Chapter 226

Villainous Emperor (26)

In the beginning, Song Xu Yi intended to take a risk and wake up Jiang Ruoyu.

Although waking Jiang Ruoyu might lead to injuries and awkward situations, completely breaking through the thin barrier between them, Song Xu Yi has decided to run away now. Even if it means facing embarrassment, it’s still better than being trapped in the dream world. So, instinctively, Song Xu Yi starts struggling, trying to break free from Jiang Ruoyu’s embrace…

However, Jiang Ruoyu appears quite dominant at this moment. Instead of breaking free, Song Xu Yi becomes even more disheveled in the tugging and pulling. Jiang Ruoyu’s previously hazy eyes now seem to be ignited with a dense and spreading fire. When Song Xu Yi meets Jiang Ruoyu’s gaze, she feels like she’s being consumed by the flames…

“Your Majesty, you can’t do this,” Song Xu Yi speaks up, realizing that her voice has turned soft and somewhat coquettish, and in that instant, Song Xu Yi can’t help but wish to bite off her own tongue…

And as expected, Jiang Ruoyu’s embrace around Song Xu Yi tightens a little.

She gasped and panted quietly, her vibrant red lips kissing Song Xu Yi’s cheeks randomly as she pleaded in a low, sorrowful voice, “Yiyi, please save me!”

“You hurt my heart during the day, and now, in this dream, won’t you grant my wish? Can you really watch me being consumed by this drug and die here?”

At this moment, Jiang Ruoyu seemed completely engulfed in her own emotions, completely ignoring Song Xu Yi’s words of “You don’t have the medicine, wake up, it’s just a dream.” She cupped Song Xu Yi’s face and continued, “I truly wish you could see how much my heart desires you.” Her voice quivered with a touch of grievance, “You shouldn’t treat me like this…”

Song Xu Yi felt a tingling sensation rushing from her toes to the top of her head. She looked at Jiang Ruoyu, who was trying to kiss her lips, and finally turned her head to avoid it. “You shameless person! Who’s bullying who now?”

“It’s me who’s shameless! I always want to get closer to you, but I can’t control myself,” Song Xu Yi never expected Jiang Ruoyu to confess everything. Jiang Ruoyu hugged her waist, burying her head in Song Xu Yi’s neck, and once again, with a soft and pleading tone, she said, “Please, Yiyi…”

“Yiyi, I don’t even know why I love you so much, but could you please be a little kinder to me…”

“Just one kiss, just one peck—”

If Jiang Ruoyu were still sulking like during the day, Song Xu Yi would have definitely remained firm and not softened her heart. However, at this moment, with Jiang Ruoyu’s soft and pleading words, and the shimmering watery glimmer in her eyes, Song Xu Yi feels as if her heart has turned into water—

In the end, it doesn’t matter, right?

……

In that moment, the defense line in her heart collapsed, and Song Xu Yi chose to compromise, trembling as she closed her eyes—

“Just one kiss, just one peck—”

But Jiang Ruoyu remained motionless.

Unable to resist, Song Xu Yi opened her eyes, and Jiang Ruoyu’s enlarged face was right in front of her. They had never been this close before. The flames in Jiang Ruoyu’s eyes ignited with an overwhelming force. Song Xu Yi was taken aback, subconsciously sensing danger. She tried to step back, but her waist tightened, and in the next instant, their lips were pressed together…

“Yiyi, you’re really obedient!” Song Xu Yi heard a low chuckle. Her cheeks flushed, and she instinctively wanted to retort, but the words didn’t come out—lips parted, providing Jiang Ruoyu with the perfect opportunity to conquer her territory…

The truth proved that one should never believe the words spoken by their lover, such as “I’ll just give you a peck” or “I’ll just kiss and won’t do anything else.” If those words could be trusted, even a mother pig would climb a tree…

On this night, Song Xu Yi experienced a series of torment and joy, thoroughly embodying this truth.

The next morning, Song Xu Yi woke up earlier than Jiang Ruoyu.

In her sober state, Song Xu Yi felt immensely disgusted with her momentary lapse of reason. She had never imagined that she would succumb to Jiang Ruoyu’s seduction the previous night and that their relationship would cross boundaries to this extent!

Due to fully absorbing the consciousness of the Divine Attractor, Jiang Ruoyu’s body was now automatically in a deep slumber, appearing incredibly peaceful in her sleep.

Song Xu Yi glanced at the exposed half of Jiang Ruoyu’s shoulder, involuntarily recalling the seductive figure Jiang Ruoyu revealed the previous night and the alluring appearance when she called out to her as “Yiyi”… Instantly, her cheeks flushed, and she quickly sat up.

Jiang Ruoyu didn’t know her true identity, which led to their intimate encounter. But Song Xu Yi had always claimed to treat Jiang Ruoyu as a junior, and now they had this kind of relationship. Whenever she thought about it, Song Xu Yi felt ashamed to face Jiang Ruoyu.

Now that Jiang Ruoyu had fully absorbed the power of the Divine Attractor, she knew Jiang Ruoyu would become even stronger after waking up. Staying any longer, Song Xu Yi worried that she would soon be exposed. This was the perfect time for her to leave Jiang Ruoyu’s side.

Song Xu Yi took a deep breath, not even bothering to pack her belongings, as there was little for her to pack. Supporting her sore waist, she got up from the bed and concealed herself using her accumulated divine power. Swiftly, she left the palace of Jiang Kingdome and returned to the gathering place of the Nine-Tailed Fox…

When Mother Song and Father Song heard that Song Xu Yi mentioned Jiang Ruoyu had absorbed the power of the Divine Attractor, they marveled at the news. They also didn’t doubt the idea of Song Xu Yi wanting to go into seclusion. They casually mentioned that a certain immortal’s son had been making remarkable progress lately and suggested that they could arrange a blind date between Song Xu Yi and that divine lord…

At this moment, Song Xu Yi didn’t want to deal with anything and casually agreed to the arrangements. Afterwards, she entered the seclusion chamber.

It wasn’t until she sat down in the secluded chamber and crossed her legs that Song Xu Yi truly relaxed—

The system in her mind made a clicking sound as if it wanted to say something, but Song Xu Yi didn’t wait for it to speak. She covered her reddened face and blocked the system—

In fact, Song Xu Yi had a rough idea of what the system wanted to say.

She also knew that her actions might make her appear like a heartless woman—sleeping with Jiang Ruoyu and then running away. She didn’t know how Jiang Ruoyu would react to her sudden departure, but Song Xu Yi just couldn’t face Jiang Ruoyu. The moment she thought about their current relationship, she felt an overwhelming sense of guilt.

Song Xu Yi could only console herself that Jiang Ruoyu might come out soon and then hide herself like an ostrich, focusing all her attention on cultivation—

After all, Jiang Ruoyu’s moral values seemed to be somewhat intact for now. She probably wouldn’t do anything to cause chaos in the Three Realms as described in the original plot summary. This thought allowed Song Xu Yi to ease her mind and focus on her seclusion. At least for the next three to five years, she felt that she couldn’t face Jiang Ruoyu again.

Not long after Song Xu Yi left, Jiang Ruoyu woke up from her slumber.

She could sense the surging power within her body, an unprecedented feeling of immense strength that could almost control everything. The last trace of the Divine Attractor’s consciousness in her body had completely disappeared.

Jiang Ruoyu knew what this meant: She had attained godhood in her human form, becoming the most powerful deity in the world.

However, Jiang Ruoyu couldn’t feel joy—

She found herself lying on the large bed in the bedroom, her clothes disheveled, and a strange sense of satisfaction and contentment filled her body. However, there were no traces of the little palace maid around.

What had happened?

Jiang Ruoyu furrowed her brows. She had previously had indescribable dreams involving the little palace maid, but the scenarios weren’t as vivid as this, and upon waking up, the current situation was not what she expected…

Fragments of memories began to flood back into her awareness—

The self that was taken over by the Divine Attractor; the self trapped in a dream, seducing the little palace maid—the incredibly realistic and pitiable demeanor of the little palace maid, the blissful delight…

Could all of this truly be just a dream?

Recalling the jealousy the Divine Attractor had towards her and the eerie silence from yesterday, Jiang Ruoyu suddenly widened her eyes, almost immediately understanding everything—

……

So, everything from last night wasn’t just a dream!

But if everything from last night was real, how would the little palace maid think of her?

Jiang Ruoyu looked around the empty bedroom, feeling an unprecedented sense of panic.

She slowly got up and dressed herself. During the process, Jiang Ruoyu couldn’t help but blush: She was also somewhat shy in her heart. She had never imagined that she would progress to this point with the little palace maid. But last night, it was her who had seduced the little palace maid. Jiang Ruoyu felt that she needed to give the little palace maid enough time to accept this fact, so she could slow down and not rush to find the little palace maid…

There was no sign of the little palace maid near the bedroom. Instead, Jiang Ruoyu picked several flowers in the courtyard, thinking that the little palace maid might have gone back to her mother Dong Rou. Jiang Ruoyu planned to apologize to the little palace maid later by giving her the flowers…

However, there was no trace of the little palace maid at Dong Rou’s place either.

The smile at the corner of Jiang Ruoyu’s mouth gradually faded, and she tightly held the bouquet of flowers, feeling an inexplicable sense of panic—

Where could the little palace maid have gone?

Jiang Ruoyu pressed her lips together and released her divine consciousness.

Her divine consciousness was now incredibly powerful. When she released it, almost the entire scenery of the capital city was encompassed by her divine consciousness. However, as time passed, Jiang Ruoyu’s brows furrowed tighter and tighter—

Once, twice, thrice…

Jiang Ruoyu stubbornly searched the entire capital city several times, but there was no sign of the little palace maid!

She questioned the palace guards at the gate, but they hadn’t noticed any strangers coming and going. She even called the city’s defenders to inquire, but they found no trace of the little palace maid…

After tossing and turning until midnight, Jiang Ruoyu waved away the soldiers who were searching for her, her eyes burning with redness. She pressed her lips together tightly:

The joy she felt when she woke up in the morning had completely vanished from her heart. All that remained in Jiang Ruoyu’s mind at this moment was endless worry and confusion—

—In the span of one night, the little palace maid vanished from the world!

Did she leave on her own accord, or was she taken by something or someone?

What could make a living person suddenly disappear from the world?

Jiang Ruoyu couldn’t help but consider some cryptic possibilities—

She searched for all souls around the palace, but still found no trace of the little palace maid…

However, Jiang Ruoyu couldn’t believe, or perhaps didn’t want to believe, that in her subconscious, she still felt that the little palace maid was alive somewhere in this world.

But how could the little girl vanish from the world in just one night?

This was not something that human power could accomplish.

Jiang Ruoyu’s gaze became heavy as she looked up at the heavens, and a gloominess filled her heart like dark and heavy storm clouds, slowly spreading throughout her being—

If she couldn’t find any traces in the Mortal Realm, then she could only go to the Divine Realm where the immortals gathered.

After all, the current her was the new Divine Attractor, the natural enemy of those gods. Perhaps one of them had hidden the little palace maid…

However, Jiang Ruoyu was not afraid. Even if she had to search the heavens and the underworld, she would eventually find the little palace maid!

The author has something to say:

The flag has fallen, and this little world won’t conclude today~

It’s probably going to be tomorrow~

Wow, throughout the whole day today, “Thank you, because of you…” kept echoing in my mind.
