Chapter 934 - I Became a Villainess and Was Pestered by Beautiful Girls
Since coming into contact with Senior Xinghong, the frequency of the system's appearances seems to have significantly decreased. It used to send out playful tasks or options from time to time, pranking the eldest disciple sister. Now, it's mostly serious business... "Digging a hole? With such an obvious loophole, can this really work? Wouldn't the Blood Honor Hall be on guard?" [Strategy Assistant Iv3: The rocks in the Hell Realm are quite special, tough, and capable of blocking divine sense detection. Normally, even peak Dao integration cultivators would be unable to sneak into the underground area of the lab.] "Eh? You're giving a serious answer? This isn't a joke this time?" Having found a way, Tang Xin turned to ask the Seventh Elder. "Hey, do you know how to dig?" "?!" .... Half a day later. "Huff, puke, this..." Ling Hua, in the tunnel, was sticking out her tongue, looking utterly exhausted. The assistant’s analysis wasn't wrong; the rocks of the Hell Realm were out of the ordinary. The lab was built on top of a special rock layer. Trying her might, Tang Xin found she could only leave a faint scratch on its surface. The Seventh Elder, on the other hand, was remarkably more efficient, at least ten times more so than her, but it still took a solid half-day to dig to the designated spot. "You, why didn't you, lend me, the divine tool." Ling Hua, drenched in sweat, her clothes clinging to her graceful body, was irresistibly alluring. "Brooms are for sweeping, not for this kind of work," Tang Xin sniffed, enjoying the unique fragrance emanating from Wanjian Ling, "Stop complaining, dig a little further up, and we can get out." "Darn it, who exactly is the elder, and who is the disciple here..." After some more effort, Ling Hua’s treasured sword touched soil. Carefully, she dug a hole, using her sword as a medium to check the situation outside. "Guards are patrolling everywhere, there’s no way to sneak out discreetly." They had noticed earlier that the buildings in the lab area were densely packed, leaving little open space. This ensured guards could patrol every corner. "Then let's dig further inside," Tang Xin pointed forward, "Dig through!" "Damn, you shower Su Ling with all your love, but show no mercy to me, Su Ling’s master... When we get back, I must complain to Su Ling! Can't let her forget her mother after getting a wife!" Digging a bit further, Ling Hua directly reached the walls of an underground chamber. It was dim inside, and seemingly unoccupied. Quietly, the two women jumped out of the hole, remembering the location and repairing the surface as a precautionary retreat path. [Strategy Assistant Iv3: It’s recommended that the host draw the Blood Honor Demonic Mark between their eyebrows to avoid suspicion.] "Draw it on? That'll work?" [Strategy Assistant Iv3: I speculate that the lab’s external security is tight but internal controls are lax. Inside, people won’t be bored enough to verify the authenticity of others’ demonic marks.] "What if there really are such nosy people?" [Strategy Assistant Iv3: Advise immediate escape.] "... Is this really the new version... Tang Xin found a glowing red paint in her storage spiritual device and drew a Blood Honor Demonic Mark on both her and Ling Hua’s foreheads. Having already changed their appearances, with the marks, they should theoretically be able to fool ordinary people. The underground chamber was divided into multiple sections with closed doors, and it was unclear what was inside. "You two, stop, turn around!" Just a short while later, a call from behind made Tang Xin and Ling Hua stiffen. Told you the assistant isn’t reliable. The two women slowly turned around, quietly gathering strength, ready to eliminate the pursuer with a thunderous force. "In this stronghold, everyone is busy to the point of collapse. Why do you still have time to loiter? Are you dissatisfied with unpaid overtime? Do you feel wronged by Blood Honor Hall?" The white-robed cultivator merely glanced at them before scolding. "Now is a difficult time for the hall, being able to issue your rewards on time is already commendable. Don't you know gratitude? As members of Blood Honor Hall, shouldn't you actively contribute during such times? Don't always expect the hall to support you; learn to repay it, understand?" "Understood, I'm proud to do overtime, Blood Honor Hall is my home!" "That’s the spirit... Go to the third room on the left ahead, take the box marked 'Important', and deliver it to the high-level meeting room at the very end!" "Got it!" "What are you waiting for, move!" The two hurried into the room, grabbed the box, and dashed off without looking back. "How come you’re so skilled at this? Your slogan sounded heartfelt..." Back at the sect, the sect leader also exploited me like this... The scolding Blood Honor Hall cultivator watched from a distance. The two women didn't dare to stop, proceeding to the place he mentioned. At the door, someone took the box from them and ordered them to stand aside and wait for further orders. Tang Xin and Ling Hua had no choice but to stand there awkwardly, not knowing whether to stay or go... Listening closely, it seemed like a group of high-ranking individuals inside was engaged in a heated discussion. "Why would the hall suddenly pull so many people causing trouble in the Jiuzhou Continent? What's the point? What if we really anger those folks and they come at us armed?" "Yes, the experiment has entered phase three; we are only one step away from success. We can’t afford any accidents now!" "Exactly, making decisions without consulting us is too much!" As they listened, Tang Xin and Ling Hua exchanged looks. Huh? Even Blood Honor Hall’s own members don't understand why they're attacking the Jiuzhou Continent so aggressively? I thought the goal was to kidnap young talents for experiments? "And they're diverting our attention to research the massive production of 'mindless blood soldiers. What’s the point of these defective products? Is our plan just to use a lower-rank human sea strategy against external enemies?” "Exactly! This isn't what we signed up for! We should demand an explanation from the hall!" "An explanation?" Suddenly, a clear and cold voice rang out. Hearing this voice, Ling Hua’s face changed, her eyes widened, and her lips slightly parted, as if she couldn’t suppress her excitement. Although Tang Xin was also surprised, she quickly suppressed it, giving Seventh Elder a subtle kick, telling her not to act rashly. "Deputy Palace Lord Fei Yao, you... weren't you supposed to arrive in three days..." The room fell silent instantly, with only the sound of someone's teeth chattering faintly audible. "I am here to give you your explanation," Fei Yao said coldly, "What the hall wants you to do, you do. Otherwise, prepare to die, understand?"
