Chapter 96 - What To Do if You’re the Villain and the Heroine Likes You

This time, He Yunxiao became clever. Instead of directly using internal force to rush into Chu Chu's body and stimulate acupuncture points like using silver needles, he chose to float on the surface of the skin, using a “blowing” method to gently press the acupuncture points. Although this approach has limited effects, the advantage is that Chu Chu, who currently cannot use internal force, cannot detect his subtle movements. With Chu Chu's control over her body, she should be able to sense what strange techniques He Yunxiao is using to press her acupoints with careful perception. However, Chu Chu is now completely focused on resisting her physiological impulses, letting He Yunxiao, who initially only dared to cautiously probe and gently press, take advantage, finally becoming completely unrestrained. Chu Chu is in a very dangerous situation. The redness that had faded a bit because of He Yunxiao's temporary pause has now intensified on Chu Chu's face. Even her usually quiet and honest body, on the verge of collapse, involuntarily and restlessly starts moving slightly. Under her beautiful dress, those long, well-proportioned, and straight legs, the legs that once stepped on many martial arts giants, the same legs that once almost kicked He Yunxiao half to death, are now tightly pressed together, quietly rubbing against each other in an attempt to alleviate the impending collapse. Chu Chu is not the only one suffering; He Yunxiao is also enduring torment. The contrast between the once overbearing, indifferent Chu Chu and the present one is too stark. Who can stand this? Although he cannot stand it, He Yunxiao knows he has to. Now is the best opportunity to torment Chu Chu. She will agree to anything at the moment. If he softens now and lets her go, although it would be convenient, the next time he encounters another female lead, she would undoubtedly act relentlessly. He would be clueless about what to do then. Pleading with her would be futile, fighting her would be fruitless, and offering money would be futile. It can be said that apart from being sincere, Chu Chu has no other opening. "The Strengthened Edition of The Peach Blossom Spring!" In the Jin Dynasty, a fisherman of Wuling made his living by fishing. In the following year, there was peace and the country flourished. The north was established as the central plains, where all the weak and dull would be eliminated, and the wicked and evil would be removed. The Han dynasty was restored to its former position... Chu Chu, who usually doesn't like to speak first, finally couldn't help but speak up. "He Yunxiao." He Yunxiao's inner force doesn't diminish, but he looks innocent. "What's wrong, Lady Chu?" "You know you can't beat me, and I won't make things difficult for you. You just need to admit defeat, no need to apologize." He Yunxiao nods, "Okay." Okay, but with no action. He's stalling! After waiting for a while, Chu Chu can't hold back anymore and grits her teeth, "He Yunxiao, why haven't you admitted defeat yet?" During this ongoing "examination of principles," Chu Chu can only use her right hand and is unable to use internal force. According to her character, she will never back down even if she's furious. He Yunxiao has no fear of Chu Chu becoming impatient and striking. At this moment, Chu Chu can't compete with He Yunxiao in terms of physical strength. That's why this is indeed a rare opportunity. While He Yunxiao firmly presses down Chu Chu's right hand, his expression becomes serious. "Lady Chu, I've gained a lot from sparring with you. I have a faint feeling that my cultivation is about to break through to the ninth level. I cannot miss this opportunity. Please wait a moment, once I break through to the ninth level, I will immediately admit defeat." Chu Chu can't wait any longer and hastily says, "You better admit defeat quickly. After that, I'll help you break through to the ninth level." He Yunxiao is surprised, "Chu Chu, will helping me break through to the ninth level affect my promotion to Grandmaster?" Previously, He Yunxiao didn't even dare to think about becoming a Grandmaster, but now, with Chu Chu's help, transitioning to the Grandmaster realm is a piece of cake. As long as Chu Chu makes an effort, he can achieve it as easily as plucking something from a bag! Chu Chu bites her lip, her face flushed. Even though she has good physical strength, her chest is heaving, breathing lightly. "If you assist me well, I'll be able to help you become a Grandmaster." "What about my Soul-Eating Pill..." "I'll figure something out." "If there's no antidote, I don't want you to use your internal force to prolong my life." "There's another way." Hey, there really is another way. He Yunxiao is intrigued, but he isn't particularly concerned about Chu Chu's method of prolonging life. Now, he receives daily medicine from Nan Zhu, and the antidote from the girl who can cure any poison. He's as difficult to kill as a dung beetle with constipation - he just can't die. What He Yunxiao is truly afraid of now is Chu Xiaoxiao, with her unpredictable nature of wanting to kill the female lead at any time. An irrational romantic interest is something He Yunxiao still doesn't understand. Why does she have such a strong intention to kill Fan Ziruo? Back then, when he saved Du Yinyun at Chunfeng Tower, Chu Xiaoxiao repeatedly warned him, solely because Du Yinyun looked at Chu Fan. Now, even though Fan Ziruo doesn't even look at Chu Fan, and they barely meet in the same room, Chu Xiaoxiao's murderous intent is even stronger. Simply put, it's because her favorability is too low. He has to hurry and increase Chu Xiaoxiao's favorability. It would be better to change her unpredictable nature, so he can deal with it once and for all. Then he wouldn't have to seduce anyone else. Why act cold when being all shy and red-faced is much cuter? But how can he stably improve Chu Xiaoxiao's favorability? "He Yunxiao, are you still not admitting defeat?" During this period, even Chu Chu, who usually maintains a firm tone, can't summon her former toughness, indicating that she has truly reached her limit. Then He Yunxiao sees an opportunity as he watches Chu Chu's right hand being constrained. He remembers the time when he almost got dragged behind Chunfeng Tower because he touched Chu Xiaoxiao's hand slightly. Without his cleverness and good looks, the outcome would have been different. Now, even though his left hand is pressed against her right hand due to the pretext of "sparring," it can't be considered completely legitimate. If a girl has a high favorability towards you, she wouldn't hesitate about physical contact. Similarly, frequent physical interaction can boost favorability. Holding hands is a good way to promote favorability, just like it did with Nan Zhu. Now is the time to try it out on Chu Chu. When sparring, touching palms won't work. He needs a reason to hold her hand during usual times. Recalling that Chu Chu promised to assist him in reaching the Grandmaster realm, He Yunxiao suddenly comes up with an idea. "Chu Chu, how do you plan to help me achieve Grandmaster status?" Chu Chu grits her teeth and says solemnly, "You must admit defeat first... then I'll tell you." "Why not just directly transmit your skills to me? That way I won't have to train again." "Transmitting skills to me is no issue, but it poses a great danger to you. If your body can't withstand my power, it might even burst." Seeing Chu Chu about to fall into his trap, He Yunxiao raises an eyebrow, "You can give me a little bit every day. Little by little. You can train yourself back immediately." Seeing Chu Chu hesitating, He Yunxiao increases the output of the hand pressed against her upper abdomen. "You'd better assist me, practice on your own. Then... um..." "I'll give you a bit, and I'll train a bit. Will that work for you?" "Um..."
