Reincarnated and Regressed Villain - Make heroines beg for forgiveness - Chapter 245

Chapter 245: Chapter 245- Yao Lian (the Second Villainess)
“Liu Wei, even after being crippled, you are still as pathetic as ever, fufu,” With a devilish smirk, Yao Lian muted her laughter with her fingers, hinting at her ridicule aimed at the man kneeling on the ground, his teeth clenched in anger and eyes burning with fury.

“How dare you!” Struggling to stand up, Liu Wei pushed his body forward in the direction of the woman, only to lose his footing and collapse onto the floor yet again. His disabled body prevented him from maintaining his balance, resulting in him unintentionally hitting the ground with his face.

“My, my, don’t move too much or else the poison will kill you instantly.” As she squinted her eyes, seemingly sizing him up with a hint of amusement, Yao Lian released her fingers from her lips, letting her hands rest delicately on her chest. Her feet moved gracefully as the only audible sound in the room was the rhythmic beating of the man’s heart.

“Argh, damn it, you have completely destroyed my body,” Liu Wei felt his whole body being filled with an incomprehensible pain and torment which seemed to make his muscles paralyzed, with his bones not having enough strength to stand up.

The poison appeared to eat away at his bones and consume his flesh, leaving his body looking like nothing more than a skeleton as a result of severe malnutrition.

“Do you really think that I will sit idle after that declaration you made?”, Yao Lian looked at his figure lying face down on the floor, then walked past him and gracefully took a seat on the bed. Crossing one leg over the other, she placed her hands gently clasped on her knees.

It was amusing to see Liu Wei blaming her for poisoning, when he was the one who encouraged her to take such actions.

A few years ago, she discovered that she possessed a special physique called the Moon Essence Divine Physique. This physique rapidly converts moonlight into spiritual energy and boosts her Kundalini.

However, in addition to her physique providing her with increased spiritual strength, her dual cultivation partner would have also gained the ability to absorb spiritual energy from the moonlight, thereby indirectly enhancing his Kundalini.

With the information about her physique becoming known to everyone, the head of the Wei family proposed a marriage alliance between her and one of his most talented and prodigious sons, who was considered a once-in-a-thousand-years genius.

Coming from Middle Town, one would have expected Yao Lian’s family to approve of the marriage proposal. However, to the surprise of the Wei family, the Lian family indirectly rejected the proposal, causing offense. This led to the intervention of the Elders from the Phoenix Order, who were part of the Wei family.

Before the situation escalated to potential violence, Yao Lian made the decision to accept the proposal on behalf of her family. She ultimately ascended to the upper town with a clear intent of seeking revenge.

If the Wei family wanted to use her as a pawn for their own benefit, then she would also use the Wei family for her own gains. Standing in her way was Liu Wei, who fell in love with her at first sight.

Did she believe in love at first sight?

Not in the least.

From her perspective, it was simply the lust of men who claimed to love a woman just by seeing them once.

In the end, Liu Wei only saw her outer appearance and not her personality, yet he claimed to love her.

When she destroyed the self-proclaimed genius by trapping him in poison inside one of the apparent inheritances, he vowed to return after becoming stronger and seek revenge on her, making her regret it.

Wouldn’t it be foolish for her to just let him escape after he has just shown his determination to seek revenge against her?

“Cough!, Kugh, H-how? Who revealed it?” Liu Wei burst into anger as he couldn’t understand how this woman was able to know his exact location even after he used a soul talisman. ‘Master, please help me.’

In the end, the best course of action was to seek help from his master. He knew that the woman now had the power to easily kill him. Even if she decided not to, he still wanted to confront her for betraying and backstabbing him.

“Tsk, weren’t you the one who foolishly boasted about having immortality?” The woman felt a headache due to the man’s weak memory, as he had forgotten that he was the one who bragged in an attempt to impress her by claiming to have a way to survive even after death using an artifact to protect his soul.

And naturally, after learning about this, Yao Lian made sure to obtain the artifact and added some precautions to be prepared in case he somehow escaped and returned for revenge.

Therefore, she added a soul-tracking technique to his talisman.

“N-No,” Liu Wei felt his mind spinning due to the effects of his current body’s condition. He had been relying mostly on his willpower, but now that he was already crippled, his eyes grew heavy and he fell to the floor. As his eyes began to close, his thoughts drifted away, “I have to kill…”

“Hm, as always, men are pathetic,” Yao Lian grinned as she tilted her head, her eyes looking down on the now unconscious man. Her mind felt proud once again after defeating this guy who was considered a genius, boosting her ego even more about the whole race of men whom she saw as nothing but bugs.

“Let’s also take care of that other guy,” Feeling amused, she unclenched her hand, revealing a green jade pendant that appeared from the dimensional ring she wore. She focused her internal energy to contact someone who had gathered information about the man in the black robe who might be responsible for Liu Wei’s death.

Indeed, she had gathered all the information about what exactly happened in the lower town from the fact that a young master claimed the woman Liu Wei was attached to, and then that young master directed his sidekicks to beat Liu Wei.

From the moment she found out about her engagement to the prodigal son of one of the mistresses of the Wei family, she slowly began making preparations to set traps that she knew he would fall into and fall in love with her at first sight.

After gaining his trust over time, she finally got a chance when they were inside a tomb to claim an inheritance. However, she betrayed him by stabbing him after secretly implanting a tracking technique in his talisman.

For all these years, she was aware of Liu Wei’s location all the time but remained quiet because she needed to gain complete control within the Wei family by using her paralyzed husband.

Manipulating things, she kept feeding slow corroding poisons to his body to prevent it from healing when she brings Liu Wei back to his original body.

Coincidentally, today was the day when she was declared as one of the members of the family council among the existing five, prompting her to send her Aunt to kill Liu Wei. But while doing so, she got the news that he had already offended some young master.

Not thinking much of it, she perceived it as a coincidence and instructed her Aunt to mix poison into the healing potion to feed Liu Wei.

However, now that she saw him return to his body before the poison could take effect, she realized that someone had killed him.

“Aunt?” she asked, narrowing her gaze. With one hand holding the jade pendant and the other resting on her folded knees, she calmly waited for updates.

However, there was no response.

“….So, she is dead, huh”, Yao’s eyes sparkled when she noticed that, after a second, she had not received a message prompting her to at least try to listen to the voice of the person on the other end of the call. ‘Is it that black-robed man?’

Her suspicion was directed towards none other than the young master who could be on the other side. However, to her surprise, she heard a woman’s voice speaking in a soothing tone.

“Your aunt is in pieces, could you please provide me with your address so I can send her to you?
