I became a villain master, but I conquered the heroine

"After taking a hot spring bath, I came to Zizhulin to find my master."

Looking at the little girl in front of him with her head buried and an expression as if she was troubled, Yuan Chu felt helpless. He said this in a gentle voice, straightened his sleeves, and left first.

Hearing this, Gu Xi raised his head and looked at Yuan Chu's departing back, and fell into thought: the Purple Bamboo Forest in the back mountain was where he and his master often practiced.

Is Master going to test and teach me swordsmanship again?

Gu Xi was covered in sweat and her clothes were almost soaked. Although the cleansing technique could solve the problem, she felt that it was not clean enough.

She felt sticky all over and very uncomfortable, especially because she always felt that there was a strange smell on her body, so she followed Yuanchu's advice and went to the hot spring in the back mountain to take a bath.

Gu Xi untied the rope tied around her waist, and the layers of white dress slipped off her shoulders and piled up on the stone slab, leaving only the white inner garment.

She lifted her bare feet lightly and then stepped on the water. Her white toes lightly touched the water surface, causing a few ripples.

Then he stepped into it, the warm spring water slowly swallowed up his feet, followed by his slender straight calves and beautifully curved waist...

After walking in, the rippling hot spring water immediately formed circles of ripples, and the water temperature was just right.

A burst of steaming mist rose from the sparkling water surface, and a warm current instantly surged through the body like lightning.

In less than a moment, the warm water dyed her fair skin a light pink. Occasionally, a drop of water slid down her skin and fell into the water, creating ripples.

Misty mist lingered in front of her eyes. Gu Xi closed her eyes and sank her whole body down, submerging half of her body in the water, and then leaned against the side of the hot spring.

The warm spring water moisturizes every inch of skin like nectar, and also soothes the slightly restless heart of the girl.

Gu Xi came here mainly to wash away the dirt on her body, so she simply took a shower and then got up.

The girl's round toes stepped on the stone slab, and water drops fell on the stone slab, making a 'tick-tick' sound. She then cast a spell, and in an instant all the water stains on the girl's body disappeared.

This hot spring really has miraculous healing effects. After she soaked in it for a short while, Gu Xi felt that her physical fatigue was relieved a lot, and her limbs were not as sore as before.

She had always known about the hot spring on the back mountain, but normally, the master and disciple would practice the Body Cleansing Technique, and rarely used the hot spring.

Because she had just come out of the water, Gu Xi's eyes were still moist. The clear water in her eyes was like a pool of blue waves sparkling in the sunlight.

Her eyelashes drooped slightly, and she stood there, as straight and upright as a green bamboo. The slender rope was tied tightly around her slender waist, and the girl's figure began to take shape.

She changed her clothes and tied the belt around her waist. Insects and birds were chirping here, and a ray of morning light from the forest shone obliquely on her, casting a thin figure on the ground.

Behind the mountain, there is a bamboo forest.

Approaching the border of the purple bamboo forest, Gu Xi saw Yuan Chu standing in the open space of the purple bamboo forest from afar. Gu Xi approached her step by step and called out behind her: "Master."

Immersed in her own thoughts, Yuanchu heard her little apprentice calling her. She turned around in surprise, then frowned and said, "Why did you come so quickly? Why don't you soak in the hot spring for a while longer?"

I had just arrived when my apprentice came over within half an hour. Why was he in such a hurry?

Yuanchu asked her to take a hot spring bath, originally intending to help her loosen up her muscles and relieve her body fatigue, but he didn't expect that his little disciple would come so quickly.

Forget it. According to his plan, his little disciple might go to take a bath again in the afternoon. When he thought of this, Yuanchu shook his head in his heart, feeling that he was committing a great sin and had committed a great crime!

After Yuanchu finished speaking, he saw Gu Xi raised his hand and said, "My disciple has finished his bath and rushed over."

Well, now that we are here, let’s get started with today’s topic.

Then Yuanchu restrained his expression, put on the airs of a master, and said calmly: "Next time you can soak for a while before coming back."

Gu Xi stared at the person in front of her. The hot spring had a therapeutic effect. She asked him to soak in it for a while longer. Was the master concerned about her?

Gu Xi's mind was full of thoughts. He bowed and replied, "Yes, Master."

After saying that, Yuan Chu turned around again, raised his hand and waved it in the air, and a magic circle appeared in front of Gu Xi.

Yuan Chu turned sideways, trying not to block Gu Xi's view.

There was a trace of confusion in Gu Xi's eyes. She looked at the scarlet magic circle that suddenly appeared in front of her, then glanced at Yuan Chu, somewhat confused about her intention.

"Go in first." Yuanchu said these three words concisely.

Gu Xi was a little hesitant, but still listened to Yuan Chu's words and slowly walked into the magic circle.

As soon as Gu Xi stepped in, the red light around the magic circle became brighter, and then a puppet appeared in the magic circle. The puppet looked exactly like Yuan Chu.

But the puppet's face was very stiff and expressionless, its eyes were empty and lifeless, and it just stared blankly ahead.

Gu Xi looked at the scene in amazement, then raised his head to look at Yuan Chu outside the magic circle.

Yuanchu looked at the colorful expression on his little apprentice's face, cleared his throat, and explained: "This is a puppet that I took a drop of my own blood and condensed here. It has 50% of my magic power. From now on, it will fight against you on my behalf."

"It has a trace of my consciousness on it. I know how far you have come in your practice."

This was an idea that Yuanchu suddenly came up with. It could both promote his young apprentice's practice and avoid embarrassment.

The embarrassment was mainly because Yuanchu was afraid that he couldn't bear to hit his little disciple, after all, he would have to use his fists and feet on him.

But this puppet is different, it has no independent consciousness and only acts as an opponent, but it has both attack and combat power and can replace itself. Isn't that the best of both worlds?

Yuanchu sighed inwardly: As the saying goes, a strict teacher produces excellent students. I am a strict master who appears cold on the outside but is warm on the inside and never speaks a word. My little disciple must understand my good intentions.

"When you want to activate the formation, remember the location of the circle. Just stand inside it. If you attack it, it will fight you back."

"Relax, it has no consciousness itself, it is just acting as your opponent."

Hearing Yuanchu's explanation, Gu Xi couldn't help but feel disappointed. Why didn't the master teach in person? Why did he make a puppet?

But since the master arranged it this way, she must have her reasons, so Gu Xi expressed her willingness to obey.

Yuan Chu saw that Gu Xi was just standing there in a daze, standing very straight, and didn't say a word. She frowned and asked worriedly: "Do you understand what I mean?"

Gu Xi came back to his senses, focused his eyes on the puppet that was close at hand, and replied: "Disciple understands."

"In that case, why don't you try it first?"

Yuanchu thought about seeing the effect first. If it really didn't work, she would do it herself. Of course, she should teach her own apprentice well.

Although the opponent was an unconscious and expressionless puppet, it was bearing the master's face. Gu Xi was very hesitant at first and moved very slowly, fearing that he would hurt it.

But after a few rounds, Gu Xi discovered that she was extremely wrong. This puppet was much more powerful than she had imagined.

Then she became serious, and each of her moves became more fierce, and she gradually got better and better at competing with the puppet.

Gu Xi threw a punch, but the puppet reacted even faster and dodged by moving sideways.

Then the puppet quickly counterattacked, and in an instant it came to Gu Xi's side with unstoppable force, slapped Gu Xi on the shoulder, and Gu Xi was thrown out.

A smell of blood surged up, Gu Xi gritted his teeth, stood up tremblingly and continued to fight.
