The Entire Sect is Full of Villains, Yet the Junior Sister Conquers All

In Gaohuan City, all inns, big and small, were already full, with only two superior rooms left at the Fulai Inn.

This inn was lavishly decorated, but it was known in the city as a black-hearted establishment that raised prices arbitrarily, only recognizing money, not people.

Mu Chihuai was chatting and smiling with the innkeeper at the front desk, about to take out money to book the last two rooms, when a group of people barged in from outside.

Several people appeared in Chu Sang’s vision, backlit. They all wore white robes with two golden sun discs embroidered on the sleeves—inner disciples of Tianyan Sect.

No wonder their aura was so arrogant and domineering.

The slender, beautiful figure in a soft gauze dress surrounded by the others was also very familiar to Chu Sang—wasn’t this the Mary Sue female protagonist?

She was quite surprised to encounter Qin Xixue in such a small secular town.

After the surprise came joy.

What did the female protagonist’s presence represent?

It meant that the seemingly ordinary small secret realm opening in three days must hide quite a few lucky opportunities and treasures!

This trip was worth it!

But speaking of the delicate female protagonist going out alone, it was understandable that Chang Yu, as a sect elder, had too many affairs to accompany her. But hadn’t Mo Qingchen come along either?

This was a bit different from the inseparable description of the two in the original story.

However, since this was probably Qin Xixue’s first trip far from home, Chang Yu had still sent these disciples with decent cultivation to accompany her. To put it nicely, they were companions, but in reality, they were there to protect Qin Xixue.

The man in bamboo-green robes to Qin Xixue’s right was dressed unusually well, with handsome features, standing quietly to the side. He wasn’t wearing Tianyan Sect’s disciple attire, likely a disciple from another great family or sect.

Chu Sang rubbed her chin and sighed. As expected of the delicate Mary Sue female protagonist, it had only been a few days since they last met, and she already had a new bootlicker.

“We’ll take the last two superior rooms!”

These people came in and immediately tried to snatch the rooms, not even sparing them a glance.

Tantai Ming hugged his sword with both hands, glaring back, “On what grounds? We saw these two rooms first!”

The leading male Tianyan Sect disciple, with upturned eyes, looked Tantai Ming up and down, his contempt fully visible, “Dressed so shabbily, you look like paupers at a glance. Can you even afford superior rooms?”

Mu Chihuai heard the argument and turned to look, raising an eyebrow at these words, “What do you mean?”

He had no objection to calling that stinky brat poor, as it was a fact.

But in all his eighteen years under heaven, it was the first time Mu Chihuai had heard someone use “poor” to insult him.

“No ears or no brain? Can’t understand human speech?”

Qiu Xiude saw that their robes were unfamiliar, assuming they were from some unknown small sect. The contempt in his eyes grew even stronger as he sneered, “Which small sect dares to compete with us? Do you know who we are?”

He then looked at Qin Xixue with a fawning expression, “This beautiful female cultivator beside me is the little junior sister of Tianyan Sect, a once-in-a-century supreme fire spirit root. She broke through to Foundation Establishment at a young age and has a limitless future. We have specially come to the secret realm on the orders of Elder Chang Yu of Tianyan Sect.”

“If you know what’s good for you, give up the rooms. Don’t force us to take action.”

Qin Xixue slightly puffed out her chest, blushing shyly. Her beautiful eyes showed a hint of anger as she glared at him, softly chiding, “Xiude, have you forgotten what Master reminded us before we left? We should maintain our dignity as disciples when outside and not use the sect’s name to bully others.”

Although her words sounded nice, she had waited until after the male disciple finished speaking before slowly and softly speaking with her sweet voice.

Ugh~ Hypocrite.

Since seeing through this little junior sister’s true face, Chu Sang found her increasingly white lotus-like.

Indeed, dog-blood Mary Sue novels never cared about logic. Even such a female protagonist could rise to the top.

“No wonder he’s called Xiude, it’s because he lacks virtue.” Chu Sang moved two steps to the right, very politely covering her mouth before quietly complaining to Tantai Ming, “They’re really shameless.”

“Yes, yes, indeed lacking virtue and shameless.”

Tantai Ming nodded in deep agreement, agreeing with both hands and feet.

“Say that again?” Qiu Xiude heard these two openly insulting him and immediately became enraged, about to draw his sword.

Qin Xixue didn’t want to cause a publicly known scandal in a public place, damaging her image. She extended a slender jade arm to lightly stop him. After softly calling him “Senior Brother,” she slightly raised her lotus-like face to look at the three.

Her gaze only swept over Tantai Ming and Mu Chihuai. She curled her pink lips, her clear and moving beautiful eyes seemingly containing autumn waters, “I’m really sorry, but we do have urgent matters to attend to. Why don’t you give me some face? We’re willing to pay double the price for these two rooms, and give you one hundred low-grade spirit stones as compensation.”

One hundred low-grade spirit stones wasn’t a large sum, but for low-level cultivators from small sects, it was already quite a considerable amount of money.

Qin Xixue’s move was indeed high EQ, making people happily take the money and leave while feeling they had gained an advantage. Many onlookers changed their opinion of these people.

However, this didn’t mean the other party had to agree.

“One hundred low-grade spirit stones?”

Mu Chihuai opened his folding fan, covering his half-smiling lips, “Are you trying to feed beggars?”

“It’s as if only you have urgent matters. Why should we give you face?” Tantai Ming frowned in confusion, “Why is your face so big?”

“Sixth Senior Brother and Seventh Senior Brother are right.” Direct slap in the face.

Chu Sang cheered for the two of them.

As expected of destined villains. They hadn’t even turned to the dark side yet, but their skill at attracting hatred was already so refined.

What made her most gratified was Seventh Senior Brother. She had thought that Seventh Senior Brother, being simple-minded, would be unable to move when he saw the female protagonist, starting on the path of a bootlicker like in the original story… Now it seemed her worries were unnecessary. Not only had Seventh Senior Brother not taken the bait, but he was even retorting. Not bad, not bad, he showed promise!

“…”

Perhaps never having been treated this way by men before, Qin Xixue’s smile became a bit stiff. Her slender white fingers hidden in her long sleeves tightened a bit.

It was only when Chu Sang spoke that Qin Xixue spared a glance for the young woman beside them. This one look made her expression suddenly change. She stepped back as if she’d seen a ghost, nearly losing control of her gentle and proper expression, “Se-Second Senior Sister…?”

She never imagined she would encounter that fool Chu Sang here.

Wasn’t she expelled from the sect?

Had she joined a new sect so quickly?

Chu Sang gave a casual “Hi” in return.

Hello, female protagonist. What a coincidence, we meet again.

Qin Xixue seemed to recall something frightening and guilty, momentarily losing her composure. Her smile became a bit stiff, “After I woke up that day, I heard that Second Senior Sister had already left. I didn’t expect to meet Senior Sister here, what a coincidence.”

She noticed the change in Chu Sang’s aura and was secretly shocked. How had this useless person reached Foundation Establishment?

Qin Xixue felt inexplicably uncomfortable, but then she remembered that she had broken through to Foundation Establishment earlier than Chu Sang. Her raised heart quietly settled down, and she secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

She was the once-in-a-century supreme fire spirit root, the true genius.

The green-robed young man beside Chu Sang looked either rich or noble. He must be her senior brother who had given her many pills. Otherwise, this useless person couldn’t have broken through to Foundation Establishment.

Cultivation level achieved through piling on spirit medicines was very weak and would hinder future cultivation. It was simply not worth it.

She had actually compared herself to this useless person, truly losing face.

But then thinking about how this useless person could have such connections, Qin Xixue felt another wave of irritation. In her memory, Chu Sang had always been unsmiling during those years in the sect, with very poor relationships. Few people were willing to associate with her. Handsome young men with family background and wealth like this had always circled around her, but now how…

Chu Sang saw the female protagonist’s reaction and knew she must be thinking something in her heart again. But she couldn’t be bothered with Qin Xixue’s little thoughts. As long as the other party didn’t interfere with her and her senior brothers, she was naturally happy to draw a clear line with them.

“It’s all thanks to you, otherwise how could I be standing here talking to you?” Chu Sang said with a beaming smile.

She was truly happy to be able to distance herself from that dog-shit sect. The new sect was incomparably better.

In a sense, she also had to thank the dog female protagonist for giving a push.

Qin Xixue only thought the other party was being sarcastic towards her. Her expression became even uglier as she tugged at the handkerchief in her hand, not knowing what to say for a moment.

“Little Junior Sister, you know this woman?” Qiu Xiude shot a hateful glance at the three, then turned to look at Qin Xixue, deliberately softening his voice. Those upturned triangular eyes became so gentle they could drip water.

Large sects often had tens of thousands of disciples, with very clear class distinctions.

Menial disciples, outer disciples, inner disciples, and personal disciples all had their own living areas, not interfering with each other. Moreover, Chu Sang hadn’t liked to show her face much before, and after her spirit root was damaged, she became even more indifferent to interpersonal relationships. Qiu Xiude, as an inner disciple, didn’t know her.

Chu Sang shook her head and sighed. This extra hadn’t even appeared in the original story, just a nameless bootlicker.

A bootlicker who would end up with nothing in the end.

How pitiful.

“Little Junior Sister, who is she?”

Tantai Ming and Mu Chihuai were also quite curious. The three had already formed a “One Sect Family of Mutual Love and Affection” group chat in their sea of consciousness and were chatting away.

Chu Sang didn’t feel there was anything to hide about her past, so she spilled everything about her previous experiences. As the two listened, their expressions became increasingly ugly. They hadn’t expected their little junior sister to have suffered such unfair treatment in her previous sect!

The two silently vowed to treat their little junior sister even better, to make up for the lost camaraderie,

while also remembering their little junior sister’s admonition—

Stay away from white lotuses, be happy every day!

“White lotus” was a term taught by their little junior sister.

It had to be said, it was apt.

“Second Senior Sister, although you’re no longer in Tianyan Sect, Master painstakingly taught you for ten years. A teacher for a day is a father for life. Could you, for Master’s sake, let us have these two superior rooms? We’re willing to pay double the price.” Qin Xixue clutched her handkerchief, looking pitiful and helpless.

Since force didn’t work, she started playing the emotional card?

But Mu Chihuai didn’t even wait for her to finish before turning to the innkeeper, “I’ll pay two hundred spirit stones, four times the price.”

“I’ll pay two hundred and fifty spirit stones.” Qiu Xiude was truly dedicated to his role as a bootlicker. He couldn’t lose face in front of his beloved and quickly raised the price.

Mu Chihuai calmly said, “Three hundred spirit stones.”

“Four hundred spirit stones!”

The two started bidding against each other.

But unexpectedly, Mu Chihuai directly raised the price to “One thousand spirit stones.”

Qiu Xiude’s expression finally faltered a bit, realizing the other party was indeed a tough opponent. He immediately lost his initial composure and decided to end this quickly. Gritting his teeth, he said, “One thousand five hundred spirit stones.”

He turned to look at the innkeeper’s delighted face and said in a deep voice, “One thousand five hundred spirit stones for two superior rooms is already an outrageous price. No one else can offer a higher price. Quickly give us the keys!”

“Why so anxious?” Mu Chihuai said with a smile, “I’ll pay two thousand spirit stones.”

Qiu Xiude was cursing in his heart. Although he was also from a large family and relatively wealthy compared to ordinary cultivators, casually throwing out thousands of spirit stones was still very painful for him.

But he had already spoken, and if he gave up now, wouldn’t it be very face-losing?

He decided to go all in, “Five thousand spirit stones!”

He hadn’t taken this small secret realm trip seriously and only brought a few thousand spirit stones with him. He really didn’t have any more.

Five thousand spirit stones for two ordinary rooms without spirit-gathering formations—anyone who saw this would silently curse him as a sucker.

Seeing Qiu Xiude and Qin Xixue’s expressions as ugly as if they had swallowed flies, Chu Sang felt utterly delighted.

Being impolite felt so good. Being a villain was so much fun.

She originally wanted to stop Mu Chihuai, as they had already achieved their goal of annoying the others. They should stop now, no need to be suckers themselves.

But Mu Chihuai’s voice came first,

“One hundred thousand spirit stones.”

The moment these words fell, the air in the room seemed to freeze for an instant. Everyone doubted if they had heard correctly.

Qiu Xiude came to his senses, veins bulging on his forehead, his eyes reddening, “One hundred thousand spirit stones, don’t spout nonsense! Do you take us all for fools?!”

“Who are you looking down on?” Mu Chihuai raised an eyebrow and smiled, immediately throwing a storage bag containing one hundred thousand spirit stones to the innkeeper, slapping their faces hard,

“Young master doesn’t lack money.”

One hundred thousand spirit stones!

Look, this is what it means to be a rich young master who throws money around like dirt.

Everyone drew in a sharp breath. The innkeeper’s fingers trembled as he counted, nearly fainting. This was one hundred thousand spirit stones! He couldn’t earn this much in a lifetime… no, in ten lifetimes!

The group that had come in so fiercely suddenly fell silent.

Qin Xixue lightly bit her teeth, her face alternating between red and white. She felt she had never been so embarrassed in her life!

Qiu Xiude’s face burned even more painfully. Remembering how he had just called them poor and shabby, he suddenly felt that the complex gazes around him were all mocking. He wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl into.

Tantai Ming was laughing so hard beside them that he could barely breathe. He put his arm on Chu Sang’s shoulder, deliberately imitating Qiu Xiude’s earlier affected manner, “You poor and shabby fellow, no money, and you dare to want to stay in superior rooms?”

Qin Xixue, living up to her role as the delicate female protagonist, reddened her eyes at the slightest provocation. With tearful eyes, she looked at the three, “You… you’re going too far…”

A beauty in tears would usually soften most men’s hearts, but Tantai Ming and Mu Chihuai, knowing her previous actions, only found her extremely hypocritical.

They were the ones who started the trouble in the beginning, so how come now they seemed like the victims?

“Alright, the inn is full, and it’s getting late. Outsiders, please leave, so as not to disturb the guests’ rest.”

The innkeeper, having been in the marketplace for many years, immediately saw that the atmosphere was off. A smart person didn’t need many words, so he directly issued an eviction order to Qin Xixue and her group.

“Do you know who we are? We are…”

The innkeeper, who recognized money but not people, became impatient, “I don’t care who you are. If you don’t have money, get out.”

The innkeeper released his aura, revealing himself to be a Foundation Establishment cultivator.

“You!”

Qiu Xiude was about to burst with anger. He also knew that taking action in this situation would be smearing his own and the sect’s face. He held back again and again, snorting heavily before turning to leave, “Let’s go!”

Whether before or after entering the sect, Qin Xixue had always been pampered and spoiled. This was the first time in her life she had been treated this way. She was so angry her chest hurt, tearing her handkerchief in half.

After leaving, Qiu Xiude said sympathetically, “Little Junior Sister, don’t be sad. Those three also look like they’re going to the secret realm. When we enter the secret realm later, we’ll deal with them properly and vent this anger!”

“It’s perfectly normal for a couple of cultivators to die in a secret realm, especially cultivators from such small sects. Even if they die, no one will care…” As he said this, a vicious and gloomy look flashed in his eyes.
