Chapter 168: Scheme to seize a heart

“Miss, think about it clearly, now that I have lost all my martial art, not only will I not be able to help you regain Heimuya in the future, but I’ll be just a burden. Am I worth your help?” If it was normal, Song Qingshu would have agreed without any issues. Song Qingshu had always believed that he and Dongfang Muxue were equals, but he didn’t expect that he would suddenly lose all his martial art and instead needed to rely on her for help.

“Do you think Dongfang Muxue is that kind of short-sighted person? I will help you when you are in danger, and you will pay me back a thousand times in the future. If you still have doubts, treat it as me making an investment. It’s just a calculated investment.” Dongfang Muxue said lightly, but thought in her heart, ‘You let me touch the clouds in the sky, and that is more than enough for you to be worth my help.’

“That’s good, I’ll feel more comfortable this way.” Song Qingshu stretched, and his mood finally returned to normal, “Didn’t your little apprentice say last time that there was a rebellion in the Five Poison Cult, so why are we going there?”

Dongfang Muxue explained, “Although Zhang Wuji saw you and I fall into a cliff of ten thousand feet, and knew that we would definitely die, I’m afraid Ren Woxing will quietly send someone to investigate our whereabouts. The Sun Moon Holy Cult is too powerful in the Central Plains. If I hide in the Central Plains, I can’t guarantee that my whereabouts will not be exposed. As my injury is not healed, I really can’t afford to deal with them right now. However, the Five Poison Cult is different. The leader Lan Fenghuang has always been loyal to me, it is really a good place for us to rest in peace.”

“Since Lan Fenghuang has always been loyal to you, Ren Woxing must also know this, so won’t he send someone to investigate?” Song Qingshu asked.

“It will take Ren Woxing at least three years to five years to take over the position of the Cult Master. He has to completely integrate the elders of the sect, the various leaders, and the subordinates everywhere, he has no time to make any big moves during this time. Moreover, the Five Poison Cult has always only resigned to Heimuya in name, even if Ren Woxing knew that I was hiding here, there is nothing he can do.”

Dongfang Muxue secretly rejoiced in her heart, fortunately, she sent Qu Feiyan to Yunnan on a whim before, otherwise, as her confidant, she would have been harmed by those fiends. 

As for the other elders and hall masters who were loyal to her, they were nothing important. They all were just like the grass on the wall. In the future, when she takes back the control of Heimuya, they will naturally stand on her side again. Her only regret was losing Tong Baixiong. He was really loyal to her brother, and more than just a grass on the wall. It is a pity because he offended Yang Lianting, he was killed by Dongfang Bubai. (G: Idom, meaning bystander.)

“Unfortunately, it will take ten years for you to recover to your full strength. Maybe he will settle everything by then. How can you take revenge?” .

“That’s why I need your help.” Dongfang Muxue said as a matter of course.

“But now I have lost all my martial arts…” Song Qingshu said sadly.

“Where did you get your high spirits when you clamored to be my man?” Dongfang Muxue comforted him, “Don’t worry, you have your usefulness even without martial arts and brains.” (G: Notice the veiled jab.)

“That’s right, even a piece of toilet paper has its purpose.” Song Qingshu suddenly rekindled his fighting spirit, and started to feel that all kinds of ideas were coming, “Even if you can’t return to your original strength, it is not impossible to reclaim Heimuya. After all, there is only one Xiang Wentian and one Linghu Chong.”

Song Qingshu continued to analyze the situation.

“This time Ren Woxing was able to see the light of the sun again, and the person who he should be most thankful for is Xiang Wentian. But it is not uncommon for a great kindness to become a great enmity. As the Master of a cult, Ren Woxing was rescued by his subordinate, and there must be a thorn in his heart. In addition to seeing Xiang Wentian holding his head high and not bowing down, it is inevitable that he would think that his shameful appearance in the West Lake Black Prison was clearly seen by Xiang Wentian. It must prick him like a thorn in his heart. So, it won’t be difficult for us to put a crack on that wall.”

“As for Linghu Chong, we can use his sense of righteousness and loathing against evil to make a situation, um, we can even find a way to destroy his relationship with Miss Ren, provoking him and Ren Wuxing to turn against each other. Then Ren Wuxing will be left alone and naturally he won’t be that difficult to deal with.”

Listening to him talking, Dongfang Muxue finally showed a satisfied smile, and looked at the rising sun with her hands behind her back, “I’m more curious about how you plan to divide the relationship between Linghu Chong and Ren Yingying. As far as I know, the two went through many hardships together, I’m afraid it won’t be that easy to break them up.”

Song Qingshu said confidently, “Although they are in love on the surface, there is a great hidden danger between the two, and that is Linghu Chong’s feelings for his junior sister Yue Lingshan. If I am right, Linghu Chong’s favorite is always his little Junior sister. As long as we create a situation around this, Ren Yingying is just a woman no matter how generous she is, and a woman’s natural jealousy will become a weapon in our hands.”

“I’m a woman too, do you think you can use me too?” After hearing what he said, Dongfang Muxue’s expression became a little unsightly.

“How can that be…” Song Qingshu sneered and said, “Sister, you are invincible in the world of martial arts, you are born with world toppling beauty, and you have no emotional attachments. I really can’t find any weaknesses that can be exploited.”

“You really can’t?” Dongfang Muxue spoke with a dark expression, “If it wasn’t for you who incited Feng Qingyang back then, would I need to be in such an embarrassing situation now?”

“At that time, we were enemies, not friends.” Song Qingshu felt embarrassed when he thought that he had really schemed against her many times in the past.

“The only thing that is fortunate is that— you, a little basta*d with a black heart, is now on my side.” Dongfang Muxue said depressedly.

“Although I sometimes use unscrupulous means, I am still overall a good person.” Song Qingshu felt that it was necessary to emphasize that point.

“In my heart, there is no distinction between good people and bad people,” Dongfang Muxue shook her head indifferently, “There are only useful people and useless people. By the way, you can add another thing in your scheme for dealing with Linghu Chong and Ren Yingying.”

“What is it?” Song Qingshu was taken aback.

Dongfang Muxue showed a playful smile, “On one hand, we can use Yue Lingshan to deal with Linghu Chong, and on the other hand, we can also use you to deal with Ren Yingying. That way they will be separated from each other for sure.”

“You look down on me too much.” Song Qingshu said with a wry smile, “Sister, you haven’t seen how I treated her on Heimuya. If she sees me again, she will want to tear me up!”

“That is even better. Miss Ren has always had her eyes up in the sky and didn’t put men in her sight. After the incident in Heimiya, congratulations on becoming the second young man in Miss Ren’s heart. And it can be said that I have watched Ren Yingying grow up. Her character, her hobbies, and what she hates… I know about it all. Seducing women has always been one of your strengths, and with my help, you are guaranteed to successfully capture Miss Ren’s body and mind!” Dongfang Muxue felt that after being together with Song Qingshu for a long time, her thoughts seemed to become a little bit more diabolical.

  1. Everyone is like “I like Muxue” and well the standards for girls in this novel are so low. She clearly is a coldblooded person who only sees the mc as a tool, and yet she’s already the #2 girl.
