I heard that I became the villain Bai Yueguang after I died

It was already getting late, and Sang Nian and his companions met Chu Yao safely along the way.

Chu Yao had just obtained a high-level chalcedony from a monster, and was covered in the stinking blood of monsters.

Shen Mingchao covered his nose:

"No, there's a river next to it. Can't you wash yourself? I really can't stand it. It stinks."

Chu Yao curled her lips: "Men are just hypocritical."

Shen Mingchao was extremely angry:

"What do you mean I'm being hypocritical? You're covered in blood, and no one can stand it."

Then he turned around and asked Sang Nian:

"Can you handle it?"

Sang Nian: “…”

Sang Nian was frantically scrubbing his hands by the river as they were accidentally stained with the demon's blood.

Seeing this, Chu Yao had no choice but to walk over. Just as she was about to bend down to wash her hands, her ears twitched.

The next moment, she pulled Sang Nian and Shen Mingchao and hid in the shallows under the bridge.

Shen Mingchao looked at the bloody handprint on his wrist and got furious:

"you--"

Chu Yao put a finger to her lips and signaled him to be quiet with her eyes.

He reacted, immediately restrained his breath, and lay in wait carefully.

The night in the secret realm is not peaceful.

Unlike the large-scale fighting during the day, the crisis at night lurks in the darkness.

After a long while, several monks walked to the other side of the river, talking and laughing.

A bonfire was lit up, and they sat around it, grilling a few fish on skewers with long swords.

Shen Mingchao secretly poked his head out and observed the group of people.

He was about to speak when Sang Nian pulled his collar and pointed in another direction.

She set up a soundproof barrier:

"Don't act rashly, there are people squatting here."

Shen Mingchao looked in the direction she pointed, and sure enough, the reeds were swaying gently in the night.

There was no wind around.

Shen Mingchao: "They want to launch a sneak attack."

Sang Nian nodded: "Look over there again."

She pointed to a small hillside beyond the reeds.

Shen Mingchao: "There are others? What do they want to do?"

Chu Yao put it succinctly:

“They want to be birds.”

Shen Mingchao: “Ah?”

Sang Nian explained:

"The people in the reeds wanted to attack them, and the people on the hillside wanted to attack the people in the reeds. The mantis stalks the cicada, but the oriole is behind it."

Shen Mingchao: "What about us?"

Sang Nian: "In a word, those who steal other people's buttocks will always be stolen by others."

A pufferfish jumped onto the shallows, looking plump and round.

She picked it up and carefully used it to clean her shoes stained with demon blood, then kicked it back into the water with a sinister smile:

"Our target is of course those on the hillside."

Chu Yao showed appreciation and high-fived her:

"Clever enough."

Sang Nian's smile froze, and he turned around and continued to frantically scrub the sticky demon blood off his hands.

Shen Mingchao looked at Chu Yao with condemnation in his eyes, and said:

"Look at what you've done to the child. I'm not the only one who dislikes you."

Chu Yao smelled herself angrily and went to the other side to wash her hands obediently.

On the other side, the people in the reeds lost their patience and started to take action after squatting for a while.

Both sides were sword cultivators, and they were evenly matched in the fight, with neither gaining the upper hand for a while.

Suddenly, a group of monks appeared from nowhere, drew their swords and joined the battle.

Judging from the sect uniforms they were wearing, they were from the same sect as the monks who were grilling fish.

Shen Mingchao took a breath of cold air:

"This is a trap! They have been lying in ambush, and those people are bait!"

"Tsk tsk, how insidious." Sang Nian said, "Let's go. Before they finish fighting, we should also launch a surprise attack on the hillside."

Shen Mingchao quickly caught up with her and Chu Yao.

There was a fierce gunfight going on in front, and they were crawling stealthily and darkly behind.

The person squatting on the hill was concentrating on watching the fight on the shore and didn't notice the shadows approaching.

Sang Nian nodded and sent a voice message to the two of them:

"There are only three of them."

Chu Yao was very confident: "Three against three, it's a sure thing."

Sang Nian: "They are three golden elixirs."

Chu Yao is more confident: "I can beat three people alone, it's safe."

Sang Nian: "Calm down."

Shen Mingchao quickly echoed:

"That's right, calm down. We can't defeat three Jindan-stage warriors at all."

Sang Nian took out a longbow from his storage bag:

"Long-range attacks are more effective at times like this. Try using this, a Tianji magic weapon. I guarantee that one arrow will kill a Jindan stage enemy."

Shen Mingchao: "No need to be calm, just go ahead."

Chu Yao couldn't wait to take the longbow, pulled the bowstring, and praised:

"It's a nice bow indeed."

"Where is the arrow?" she asked Sang Nian.

Sang Nian: "I took it to skewer."

Chu Yao: “…”

Shen Mingchao: “…”

Chu Yao gritted her teeth:

"You apologize to us first, and then apologize to this bow."

Sang Nian hurriedly added:

"I could use a long sword instead, but I thought of something that is more lethal than a long sword and less likely to be discovered."

Chu Yao's eyes lit up: "What is it?"

Sang Nian pointed at Shen Mingchao next to him.

Shen Mingchao: “……?”

Chu Yao's eyes became brighter and brighter.

Shen Mingchao forced a smile:

"Can I say no?"

Chu Yao: “Hehe.”

Sang Nian: Smiled but said nothing.

On the hillside.

"They're almost done."

The leading monk said to his companions:

"Wait a minute, I'll give the order and rush over immediately."

The two companions said in unison:

"understand!"

One of the boys smiled crookedly:

"They definitely never dreamed that we would ambush here and kill them by surprise."

As soon as he finished speaking, a light breeze swept past him.

There was something else faintly mixed in with the sound of the wind.

He looked back warily.

In the night sky, an unidentified object was shooting towards him.

It was so fast that he couldn't even see what it was. It flew in front of the boy in the blink of an eye.

At this moment, time seemed to freeze.

The young man slowly lowered his head and met the pale-faced Shen Mingchao's eyes.

He slowly typed out a question mark.

"Boom-!!"

The young man was hit and flew away, his figure disappeared in mid-air.

"Ding--"

The few chalcedony stones he carried with him fell to the ground.

Everything happened so fast, almost in an instant.

Before the remaining two companions could react, another sound of breaking through the air was heard.

They met the determined gaze of the red-dressed girl, their faces filled with disbelief.

"Boom--!"

The two were sent flying at the same time, and before disappearing, they both uttered a curse in unison.

Chu Yao landed on the ground with one hand, and stretched out the other hand casually to accurately catch the chalcedony falling in mid-air.

She shook off the dust on the chalcedony and stood up with satisfaction.

Sang Nian flew over:

"Is everything resolved?"

Chu Yao pulled out Shen Mingchao who was stuck in the ground with one hand, and also shook off the mud on his body and put it aside, revealing eight white teeth:

“No sweat.”

Sang Nian: "That's good, Shen Mingchao you... Shen Mingchao, what's wrong with you?!"

She looked at the young man bleeding on the ground with horror in her eyes.

Shen Mingchao touched his forehead where blood was gushing out, and withdrew his hand nonchalantly.

He folded his hands in front of him, tilted his head and smiled at her, his expression peaceful:

"I hate all of you."
