The Villain Doesn’t Want To Get Entangled With the Beautiful Girl After Rebirth

43. Searching for the Princess

—

[Damn, I’ve let my guard down again]

Lin Nuo found himself unwittingly taking a bite of Su Kexin’s tofu… cake, and to his surprise, it was incredibly delicious. The meat floss cake was addictive, and he ended up devouring it all.

Damn, this protagonist is too cunning, plying me with a bunch of pastries when I’m hungry, and they’re not just fragrant but delicious.

Truly worthy of a protagonist, standing tall and graceful, with a beauty like peach blossoms over water, not only blessed with talent but also possessing great strength, and crucially, her baking skills are maxed out, producing pastries of a master’s level.

I must admit, such a protagonist would make an ideal wife.

Pah, no matter how superb her baking skills, she must die, for a world ruled by villains cannot allow such a bug to exist!

“If senior brother likes them, I’ll make more for you next time~”

“No need, the pastries are quite ordinary.”

“Oh, alright then~”

Su Kexin covered her mouth and giggled softly. It wasn’t the first time her senior brother said one thing and meant another. The body doesn’t lie, and the empty basket was the best proof.

Seeing her senior brother willing to finish all the pastries she made, the gloom in her heart also dissipated significantly.

Senior brother is just not frank, usually cold and indifferent, but at heart, he’s kind, and even a bit cute.

…

At Tianling Mountain, in the grand hall of Xuan Yun Sect.

Lin Nuo was summoned there, now facing Han Xianzi and the sect leader of Xuan Yun.

A personal summons from the sect leader was no small matter.

Lin Nuo had an idea of what he was going to say, probably asking why he was so formidable, how he did it, and so on. He had already thought of how to reply.

However, this time it was beyond Lin Nuo’s expectations.

“Lin Nuo, our sect has received an important commission. Princess Luo Xiaoxue of the Puhan Dynasty has gone missing, and we have been asked to dispatch someone capable to assist the royal army in finding the princess. After careful consideration and discussion, we have decided to entrust this task to you, to represent our sect in its execution,” Sect Leader Zhao said solemnly.

“Me? Why me?” Lin Nuo asked, puzzled.

“Because during the last trial in Fenghai Forest, you demonstrated remarkable abilities. In the unfamiliar forest and amidst the dense white fog, not only were you able to extricate yourself, but you also rescued other disciples from dire straits. Your ability to remain fearless in the face of danger, to think calmly and seek the best strategy, makes you the most suitable for this task.”

“…”

Wow, you’re really laying it on thick. Sending a great villain to find someone, are you serious?

Headmaster Zhao paused before continuing, “This mission isn’t about who has the highest cultivation level. The princess’s disappearance is surely related to the dark sects’ forces, perhaps even tied to the Demon Refining Sect. Whether it’s strength, logical reasoning, or perceptiveness, you meet the requirements. Set off as soon as possible, follow the instructions in the commission letter to investigate the situation in Huang City, then figure out a plan.”

“Yes, Lin Nuo, although this mission is significant, you needn’t feel too much pressure. After all, the Jin-Han realm is vast; just do your best. No one will blame you if you can’t find her,” Fairy Han said softly. “You will lead this mission, and you may choose disciples to assist you. Both Shu Qin and Ke Xin from my sect are willing to follow your orders. If you need Shi Li’s help, I can talk to her personally.”

Suddenly tasked, Lin Nuo roughly understood the situation. He was ordered to go to Huang City to consult with the royal army and then search for Princess Luo Xiao Xue.

Luo Xiao Xue? Isn’t she that domineering empress? Before reaching the pinnacle of the demonic path, he had often been “cared for” by her, to the point of being wanted all over the world, making him hide like a game of cat and mouse, utterly embarrassed.

To look for her? Why bother, he wished she would just die sooner.

Luo Xiao Xue’s disappearance followed the original script, but the task of venturing out had changed to him, Lin Nuo.

But it wasn’t a big problem. After all, Luo Xiao Xue wasn’t found by a disciple of Xuan Yun Sect in the past; those disciples merely found loneliness on their journey.

So, whether Lin Nuo went or not didn’t matter. According to the plot, Luo Xiao Xue wasn’t dead, she would be found, and in the future, she would become a powerful empress, a thorn in Lin Nuo’s side.

Lin Nuo was just worrying about not having a chance to go out, and now it couldn’t be better.

He outwardly agreed to carry out the mission, show his face in Huang City to represent his participation, a good explanation for Xuan Yun Sect. Then, he would head to the black market to get his hands on the Black Scale Stone. Not only that, but he also needed to establish his own laboratory outside, purchase forbidden materials from the black market, craft demonic equipment himself, lay a net of heaven and earth traps. After all, once he killed Su Ke Xin, he would definitely be hunted by Xuan Yun Sect. He needed a place to hide, and once he reached the demonic pinnacle, he would kill them all.

From noble mtl dot come

Perfect, an excellent villain must have such a grand vision, and he was already halfway there.

Lin Nuo calmly said, “I can go alone.”

“Can you manage alone? I think Shu Qin and Ke Xin would want to go with you.”

“No need, having more people on this mission might be inappropriate. Besides, they are both cultivating recently and shouldn’t be interrupted. Let them stay at Tian Ling Mountain.”

“Alright then, do you need any help?” Fairy Han asked.

Help, huh…

After a moment of thought, Lin Nuo said earnestly:

“Prepare more pork floss buns for me.”
