I Am The Fated Villain
Chapter 117: Trustworthy Brothers; Gu Changge’s Puppets! ll
"Ye Ling ..."
Bai Lie called his name with a heavy expression.
This time, he did not refer to Ye Ling as the 'Godly Li'l Bro' and instead, used his full name.
"Bai Lie's brother ..."
Ye Ling reacted to her call in haste and showed an embarrassed expression as she realized that she had gone too far this time by talking to Yin Mei without paying attention to Bai Lie, her fiance.
However, it did not bother him too much, and he thought that Bai Lie's mind was too narrow; after all, he was talking to Yin Mei from a distance, so why was he so distracted by her?
Still, Ye Ling looked at the dark sky outside and stood up to leave with a smile as she said, “My dear brother, I will not bother you two anymore! It's getting late, so I have to go and rest. ”
He could see Bai Lie's annoyance and anger, so he decided to leave now so that Bai Lie could calm down. His eloquent speech and divine luck had made him know some beautiful women in the past, so he felt that Yin Mei exchanging a few words with him was no big deal.
Bai Lie was making a mountain out of a mole's nest, he thought.
Bai Lie skin did not look so good and he believed that Ye Ling had gone too far with her actions. He took good care of Ye Ling on an ordinary day and gave her all the cultivation resources she wanted, yet now, he was trying to 'connect' with his fiance in front of her!
Whatisthis?
Bai Lie remained silent and watched him leave with a grim expression.
Before long, Ye Ling also said goodbye to Yin Mei and left the pavilion.
The place he had chosen to stay was not too far from the pavilion.
With that, only Bai Lie and Yin Mei were left in the pavilion.
Bai Lie looked at Yin Mei, who was sitting a bit away from him, with an ugly expression and moved her lips to ask him about what he had just done, but back then, it was, yin Mei's smile disappeared and she stepped towards him and said in a low voice, "There's something wrong with Ye Ling, so you should stay away from her in the future."
The sudden change of Yin Mei surprised Bai Lie and he stood in place with a dumbfounded expression.
A moment ago, he chatted with Ye Ling in a joyous mood, yet once he left, he returned to his polite, indifferent, and estranged expression from before.
The change overwhelmed Bai Lie and he could not react for a while.
Still, it didn't take long for his mind to process the meaning behind Yin Mei's words and he widened his eyes in disbelief.
So Yin Mei's previous actions were a test for Ye Ling?
Just then, Yin Mei looked at him with a dissatisfied look and asked, “What are you thinking? What kind of woman do you consider me to be? ”
“I noticed Ye Ling's impure gaze and mind as soon as you introduced us some time ago, but you never noticed anything. It's just that I never said it out loud because I was afraid you might think I was trying to make a wedge between the two of you! You must have seen well your brother's virtuous character today, right? ”
As soon as Yin Mei finished her words, she looked at Bai Lie with furrowed brows and a disappointed expression.
"That's…"
Bai Lie was stunned.
Yin Mei's words and her previous actions and behavior immediately made Bai Lie aware.
He did not doubt Yin Mei's words.
He had no reason to doubt it.
After all, Ye Ling's exaggerated behavior was clearly visible back then.
Bai Lie thought highly of the matter and concluded that Yin Mei did everything to make him see Ye Ling's real face.
Bai Lie's heart was moved by his actions as he never expected Yin Mei to show such care and attention to him.
But he— he just suspected it…
Guilt flooded Bai Lie's moved heart.
“Yin May, please don't take heart! I know I'm guilty of you now! I've never thought that you only think of me ... "
Bai Lie explained to himself.
But soon, his expression turned cold and he continued, "I know Ye Ling's temperament more than anyone else's, but I never expected him to bend down to a level where he even dared to covet you ..."
He already knew that Ye Ling was going to hit the fourth princess of the Supreme Immortal Dynasty, Yue Mingkong, so he immediately put her into the same category as Gu Changge when he took into account her actions.[1]
“I know that this person, Ye Ling, just showed me respect on the surface! Actually, he hid his venomous fangs under that layer of pretence.”
"There's no difference between him and that Gu Changge!"
Bai Lie said with a cold snort while thinking about the action to face Ye Ling.
Drowning in his own delusions, Bai Lie failed to notice the fleeting light scorn that passed through Yin Mei's eyes. After all, everything he said and did tonight was arranged by Gu Changge.
Yin Mei simply complied and followed the script she had prepared for her.
Everything went according to Gu Changge's plan without the slightest deviation and it made Yin Mei's heart pound in fear.
Gu Changge's ability to manipulate people was too frightening.
He never expected him to make a wedge between Bai Lie and Ye Ling — who was a trustworthy brother for a long time — so easily.
He, the main character, only needed to say a few words to Bai Lie and that alone did everything.
He doesn't even have to try hard.
Yin Mei thanked the heavens for the fact that she was the Holy Girl from the Nine-Tailed Sky Fox Family, and having outstanding acting skills that not many people could see — after all, there was no way Gu Changge would maintain it.
Gu Changge's precise understanding of Bai Lie and Ye Ling's heart and mind made Yin Mei's spine goosebumps.
Gu Changge had never appeared, yet everything was going in the direction he had prepared before; bai Lie and Ye Ling were playing in his palms like string puppets.
They would never have imagined that all of their actions were directed by Gu Changge.
He's too scary!
This made Yin Mei bless her heart for making the right choice back then, or else she would die without a burial in her hands long ago.
"Yin Mei, it's getting dark so are you going back to the Heavenly Immortal Dao Palace?"
Bai Lie suddenly asked Yin Mei with a hopeful look in her eyes.
After all, Yin Mei could not return to the Heavenly Immortal Dao Palace in the middle of the night, right?
Yin Mei's expression and state returned to normal and she did not show any abnormalities to herself when she heard her words, and said, “I will not be back tonight; I have a small courtyard in this ancient city, so I will go there to rest. ”
His response disappointed Bai Lie, but he understood that he could not force it.
Yin Mei chatted with him a little more and then left. But before his figure completely disappeared, a glint flashed past his eyes, and an alluring sound floated into Bai Lie's ears, "My night isn't too far from here, it's only three hundred miles to the east."
"Three hundred miles to the east ..."
Bai Lie's eyes sparkled and his heart leaped in excitement as he wondered if Yin Mei gave him a hint?
Still, this was not the time for him to worry about clues as he had more important issues to deal with.
Bai Lie's face sank and he waved his hand, "Show!"
The void behind him fluctuated and a terrifying figure with an oppressive aura emerged from here. The newcomer is his secret protector, a mighty master of the White Tiger Family.
"On your orders, Little Lord!"
Bai Lie's followers also appeared before him at the same time and waited for his orders. They were numerous in number and all of them were extremely strong The weakest — among them was at the Saint Realm.
“Take that Ye Ling for me! How dare he think of sabotaging me like this ?! ”
Bai Lie commanded with a grim expression.
"As you command, Little Master!"
Immediately, the group rushed out of the pavilion and went towards Ye Ling's place, including the mighty protector.
Bai Lie was relieved about the matter because his patron personally led the charge. He knew very well about Ye Ling's tricks, so he felt that Ye Ling would have no way of escaping with the mighty master personally taking action.
"The words that Yin Mei left behind before she disappeared..it must be a clue to me, right?"
Immediately, a smile appeared on Bai Lie's face and he went to the place Yin Mei mentioned hurriedly.
