Chapter 751 Su Xuan is defeated - I Became the Rich Second-Generation Villain

Su Xuan felt his scalp tingle with apprehension. Not only had Wang Haoran taken away several of his girlfriends, but now he was audacious enough to make a move on his beloved master! [Ding, the host has caused Su Xuan mental distress, gaining 18,000 villain points. Su Xuan's protagonist halo -900, Su Xuan's villain halo +900!] "Master, you can't be with him, I object!" Su Xuan cried out in desperation. "Xiao Xuan, the rice is already cooked. Your objections are futile. Your master and I have already discussed it; we'll be holding a wedding soon, and you must come to the Wang family to celebrate," Wang Haoran announced. As the words "the rice is already cooked" echoed, Gu Hongyi's face flushed, while Su Xuan nearly fell apart. [Ding, the host has inflicted further mental distress on Su Xuan, gaining 10,000 villain points. Su Xuan's protagonist halo -500, Su Xuan's villain halo +500!] [Ding, the host has inflicted further mental distress on Su Xuan, gaining 10,000 villain points. Su Xuan's protagonist halo -500, Su Xuan's villain halo +500!] [Ding, the host has inflicted further mental distress on Su Xuan, gaining 10,000 villain points. Su Xuan's protagonist halo -500, Su Xuan's villain halo +500!] "Master, I refuse to accept you marrying him, no matter what!" Su Xuan shouted. "Xiao Xuan," Gu Hongyi frowned slightly, feeling that Su Xuan had overreacted a bit. Wang Haoran bluntly revealed, "Xiao Xuan, I know you have feelings for your master, but she is your master — such thoughts are rebellious!" Gu Hongyi looked at Su Xuan in shock. Su Xuan clenched his teeth and remained silent, seemingly admitting. Gu Hongyi's frown deepened as she felt a pang of discomfort. She had always regarded Su Xuan as a disciple and never expected he harbored such feelings toward her. "Xiao Xuan, I have always held high hopes for you, hoping you would grow and achieve great things. Even though you've had improper thoughts, if you can realize your mistakes, I won't blame you. Our master-disciple relationship can remain unchanged," Gu Hongyi earnestly said. "Back to how it was? Sure, but Master, you can't marry him!" Su Xuan insisted, pointing at Wang Haoran. "This matter is settled and won't change because of you," Gu Hongyi replied firmly, her typically gentle demeanor unyielding in the face of such a significant issue. "Master, I won't change my mind either!" Su Xuan declared resolutely. "Is there truly no room for compromise?" Gu Hongyi sighed. "Either him or me, not both!" Su Xuan stated clearly. Gu Hongyi's complexion paled slightly, wrestling with her emotions before decisively declaring, "Very well, then our master-disciple relationship ends here." Su Xuan stood frozen in place. His master was willing to sever their ties for a man who had taken several of his girlfriends? Su Xuan always believed that even if all his girlfriends left, his master would never abandon him. As anger slowly bubbled up, his face twisted with rage. [Ding, because of the host, Su Xuan's mindset sustained damage again. Gaining 20,000 villain points, Su Xuan's protagonist aura -1000, the host's villain aura +1000!] [Ding, Su Xuan has succumbed to darkness and lost his protagonist status.] The pent-up frustration and resentment erupted at that moment. "Gu Hongyi, you took me in as a disciple with ulterior motives, planning to use me to reconstruct your body. And now that you’ve achieved rebirth, you want to discard me? Very well, very well!" Su Xuan roared. "You" Gu Hongyi felt deeply hurt. While it was true that she hoped for him to help, she had always treated him as a true disciple, investing her genuine care. To be repaid with such accusations was heart-wrenching. "What's the matter? Struck speechless by the truth?" Su Xuan accused. Gu Hongyi sighed deeply, recognizing the futility of further words and choosing silence. Su Xuan continued to vent his anger with harsh words, disparaging Gu Hongyi before storming off with his unhealed injuries. Gu Hongyi was exceptionally gentle, taking Su Xuan’s verbal attacks in silence. Had it been anyone with a hotter temperament, they might have struck Su Xuan down with a slap long ago. With her newly regained body and her cultivation significantly restored, Gu Hongyi could easily turn Su Xuan to dust with a single blow. Gu Hongyi watched Su Xuan's departure, her heart aching profoundly. Wang Haoran held her in his arms, comforting her for a considerable time, slowly improving her mood. Afterward, Wang Haoran left Gu Hongyi’s sight, pulling out the bloodline sample previously collected from Su Xuan. His eyes held a hint of killing intent. Su Xuan, having succumbed to darkness and relinquished his protagonist role, was of no further value. Moreover, a darkened Su Xuan would stop at nothing to retaliate in the future. Wang Haoran had no intention of allowing Su Xuan to gain power. Had Gu Hongyi not been present, Wang Haoran would have killed Su Xuan on the spot. After leaving Red Flame Mountain, Su Xuan was single-minded about honing his skills, setting his sights on becoming strong enough to kill all those who had wronged him. "Wang Haoran, Xu Qingtong, Hua Jieyu, Jiang Qingkui, Yan Ling’er, and Gu Hongyi — all of you, just wait..." Su Xuan shouted to the air, venting his feelings. Yet before he could finish railing against his perceived betrayers, Su Xuan collapsed and died, lying lifeless in the wild. Wang Haoran sensed Su Xuan's death, allowing himself a slight, cold smile. The use of a bloodline curse was twofold: efficiency and the possibility to frame someone else. The Red Flame Mountain dispute had long ended, and all Wang Haoran needed to attend to was complete — it was time to leave. Wang Haoran departed from Red Flame Mountain along with Gu Hongyi and the Jiang family's bodyguards. En route, Wang Haoran intentionally drifted closer to where Su Xuan died. Gu Hongyi stumbled upon Su Xuan’s body, momentarily stupefied. Despite having severed ties, seeing Su Xuan dead evoked a sense of sadness in her. Upon examining Su Xuan's cause of death, Gu Hongyi quickly concluded it resulted from a terrifying curse. Recently, a family in the Gold Flame Manor had also perished from such a curse. Ye Xuantian was the one who had exterminated that family. Having clashed with Ye Xuantian in Red Flame Mountain and formed a grudge, the perpetrator was apparent. Su Xuan had been killed by Ye Xuantian. Gu Hongyi had no inclination to avenge Su Xuan, but out of lingering attachment, she wished to bury him properly. She consulted Wang Haoran for his opinion. Wang Haoran offered no objections. Su Xuan was dead, and even Wang Haoran wasn't heartless enough to let beasts devour his body. Wang Haoran even personally dug a grave for Su Xuan and buried him. In the process, he stealthily retrieved the jade that Fang Youruo had given Su Xuan. It was the engagement token from Fang Youruo. Should she inquire about it in the future, its absence would be awkward. After laying Su Xuan to rest, Wang Haoran and Gu Hongyi headed straight back to the Wang family in the Eastern Region. There was still half a month left until the wedding. The soon-to-be-married returned to their respective homes. Feng Xuansu returned to Fengxi Mountain, while Zuo Qiu Shen Yu and Zuo Qiu Luo Yan went back to Cangzhou, ready for Wang Haoran to come for them as the wedding approached. (End of Chapter)
