Reborn As A Villainous Cannon Fodder

After countless struggles against her instincts, Mei finally found herself completely controlled by her desires.

For years, she had lived by the philosophy of seize the day within the Full Moon Sect.

She acted according to her moods.

On good days, she’d capture a few righteous cultivators to toy with or seek out Liuli to cause trouble. She savored that indignant expression and those eyes filled with resentment and killing intent.

On bad days, she could still capture righteous cultivators to play with, then enjoy watching them desperately try to please her just to survive.

Of course, Mei had moments of hesitation too. Tʜe source of this ᴄontent s ovelfire.net

Sometimes she’d feel sympathy for those timid cultivators who reminded her of her childhood self, the ones cast aside by their companions as worthless.

Other times, she’d feel kinship with those strong-willed cultivators who possessed strength rivaling her own, who could actually make her excited in battle after so long.

During such moments, Mei would show mercy.

She followed her heart’s instincts. She enjoyed the rush of combat and the unrestrained freedom of her lifestyle.

Mei had always thought she’d live this carefree existence until someone eventually killed her.

But then she met Yino.

He existed completely outside the rules of her worldview.

He wasn’t particularly powerful, Mei had never even fought him, yet he commanded the loyalty of two women she truly feared.

Liuli served him.

Yuyan served him.

Using incomprehensible methods, he’d captured her effortlessly.

Mei’s proud soul naturally refused to submit to Yino.

But…

After months of his training, her body had developed entirely new instincts.

She’d been conditioned with impulses carved into her very bones. She’d grow excited from her master’s scent, feel joy when he praised her good behavior, and experience happiness beyond anything she’d ever known when he showed her favor.

In a way, this past month had seen Mei living purely by instinct.

Her mind had gradually become strange.

Though her will hadn’t surrendered, this rebellious spirit seemed to contradict her “seize the day” philosophy.

Like now…

Mei cursed even as she served the man she both loved and hated.

The cursing came from her proud soul’s resistance.

The intimate service came from her already corrupted body’s desire to please.

Clearly, in this battle between freedom and pleasure, Mei hadn’t escaped her body’s instinctual cravings.

She knew this had to be another of Yino’s schemes!

But she couldn’t find proof.

Gradually, Mei began regretting why she hadn’t just killed Yino from the start.

What she regretted even more was why she had knelt down to serve him before striking, all to humiliate him.

That service had begun as better revenge, a provocation and defilement of her conqueror.

But as she continued serving, Mei’s consciousness slowly sank into the abyss.

In a way, Mei had been incredibly stupid.

She’d known this thing held irresistible temptation for her, yet she’d still arrogantly tried to provoke and even defile it.

Damn it!

Damn… damn… damn it…

This isn’t the ending I wanted! Why won’t my body behave!

Right now, Mei couldn’t stop herself from sucking, lost in the act, yet her eyes blazed with the desire to kill the man feeding her.

At some point, the tables had turned.

Yino, who should have been bound by plum blossom branches, had easily broken free. He’d grabbed Mei’s gradually fading red twin-tails and turned around, pressing the kneeling flower demon girl against the tree and pinning her down completely.

After several exchanges of verbal sparring and deep probing, Yino’s anxious heart finally settled.

He relaxed, the tension leaving him. Feeling that primal power surge again, Yino chuckled coldly and tightened his grip on Mei’s head.

“Hah? Wait! You wouldn’t dare! —-mmph!”

As pressure reached the gates, Mei’s murderous gaze again showed traces of unease.

The familiar sensation instantly made her realize what he intended.

But she couldn’t resist, or rather, her body didn’t want to resist. It had been trained over this month to respond instinctively.

This instinctual response existed solely to better serve her master.

Mei didn’t want this.

But like a puppy that won’t refuse milk, once the precious liquid reached her throat, even if it might choke her, she’d still swallow instinctively rather than waste that precious, sweet nectar.

“Bastard!!!”

During the long feeding, the flower demon girl’s throat convulsed repeatedly.

Such skilled swallowing, definitely a greedy little pup.

“Hic…”

Perhaps from drinking too eagerly, Mei hiccupped unexpectedly.

In this atmosphere, the sound seemed strange. After briefly breaking free, Mei quickly covered her mouth, but when she looked up, she caught that playful yet slightly doting smile in his eyes.

She hated his mockery, yet couldn’t resist his affection.

“Bastard… are you satisfied now?”

Mei wiped her stained lips and leaned weakly against the tree, breathing heavily.

Somehow, she felt something caught in her throat.

Looking back, she’d probably swallowed too reluctantly, causing her to inhale too much air during her mental struggle between consciousness and instinct.

Helplessly, Mei covered her mouth again, quietly releasing the trapped air.

“Mmph…”

Another muffled hiccup.

As the familiar scent returned, the girl’s face flushed as if she were drunk, her previously humiliated eyes briefly losing focus before falling into a daze.

But quickly, Mei blinked and snapped out of that intoxicated state.

“Disgusting! Now my mouth tastes like you!”

The girl wiped her mouth and couldn’t help cursing in disgust again.

Yino watched her coldly, somewhat helplessly:

“I didn’t force you to swallow.”

“-_-!”

Mid-argument, as Mei prepared to explode with angry curses, she suddenly noticed a flaw in Yino’s behavior.

Just now, after she’d reluctantly swallowed everything, Yino had stopped restraining her. Taking this opportunity, Mei was finally free from that terrifying curse’s mind-washing proximity. Didn’t this mean she’d regained her freedom?!

“Just a temporary victory! I won’t fall for your tricks again!”

No longer containing the curse, Mei sneered and summoned two plum blossom branches, stabbing toward Yino.

But this time, under Mei’s Divine Transformation stage killing intent, Yino no longer showed fear. Instead, he smiled coldly.

He simply raised his hand and snapped his fingers. A dark purple curse mark appeared on Mei’s lower abdomen.

“How! How is this possible?!”

The sudden suppressive force instantly withered the plum blossom branch she’d extended.

She tried to draw her sword against Yino, but such killing intent toward her master violated the taboo. Almost instantly, Mei felt her abdomen tingle like electricity, her whole body going weak and limp.

The girl’s feeble sword strike was easily caught at the wrist by Yino.

“…!”

Meeting the flower demon girl’s shocked and barely concealed shy gaze, the young man’s absolutely dominant masculine strength suddenly slammed her against the ancient tree behind her.

The familiar sense of oppression rose in her heart. Besides shock, Mei didn’t know what expression to make.

Her cultivation was sealed by that strange curse mark on her abdomen. Without the power she’d always prided herself on, her delicate and extremely sensitive body was nothing more than a lowly female beneath Yino.

“When did you…”

“Want to know why you lost?”

Yino smiled faintly.

His hands were large, one hand could pin both of Mei’s hands against the wall.

Meanwhile, Yino pressed his body forward, using his physical advantage to also restrain the girl’s slender but dangerous legs.

Right now, the only part of Mei that could move seemed to be her face.

But this almost face-to-face confrontation with Yino made Mei repeatedly blush with shame and humiliation.

She lacked both the courage and the face to meet this man’s gaze, just as she kept insisting on acting while never admitting that her body truly couldn’t live without his affection.

“Guess when I completely let my guard down around you?”

“Actually, it was when your hair turned white…”

Yino pressed against her, leaning close to her ear and patiently explaining gently.

Hearing about her hair color change, Mei finally realized the issue.

Yes… When had her emotions stopped raging? When had her body stopped suffering from the blood fury buff’s overclocking? Even her cultivation had long since retreated from half-step Emptiness Refining stage back to normal Divine Transformation stage.

Yet Mei, whose mind was occupied with internal struggles over her appetite, had never noticed any of this.

“Why… my Red Plum state couldn’t have faded so quickly…”

“Unless… unless it was…”

Led by Yino’s words, Mei finally calmed down and began seriously analyzing the details she’d missed while being greedy.

“Yes, unless the wounds on your body healed at some miraculous speed.”

Yino continued speaking unhurriedly.

As his words fell, Mei hesitated briefly, her brain overloaded and unable to process everything yet.

But just then, Yino suddenly leaned in.

He gently took the girl’s earlobe in his mouth. As incredibly abundant natural spiritual energy flowed into Mei’s mind, her beautiful face immediately flushed hot from Yino’s intimate attention.

Right now, forget feeling pain, Mei felt like she might explode from excitement.

“You’ve been using Lily and that deer spiritual energy to heal me from the beginning?!”

“You were pretending to argue with me while secretly healing me! That’s why my body lacked pain stimulation, causing my blood fury state to fade rapidly, which allowed your seal to regain control of my body..”

Mei finally understood the secret of her lightning-fast defeat and stared wide-eyed in sudden realization.

“Of course, you’re the potted plant I personally watered. When someone else damages my plant, naturally I need to tend it carefully.”

“…!”

“What, too moved?”

“B-bastard! Who asked you to water it with those filthy things.!”

“Really? You truly don’t want to replenish your nutrients?”

“I don’t!”

“The battle just ended. Is eating just this little really enough?”

“I! I, I, I…”

“If you want to eat, just say so. Ruoning was knocked out by you, and no one else is around. Considering you helped save Ruoning and me, I’ll overlook your betrayal and revenge attempt… In other words, with senior sister constantly challenging me recently, you probably haven’t had nutrients in at least a week, right?”

“Just! Just this once! But you’re the one tempting me, I don’t want your thing!!!”

“Looks like he really got away.”

Liu mansion’s back courtyard.

Shang Hua sat at the stone table’s side, legs elegantly crossed under her dress, one hand supporting her chin while the other held a letter she studied carefully.

After reading for a while, she continued with interest:

“Summarizing everything, this young man truly deserves to be called the little wolf who offended Yune in the Western Region.”

“At tonight’s Liu mansion banquet, he first openly showed affection with Ruoning, then publicly humiliated Lin Ze while proving his own strength, and finally used special methods to steal Lin Ze’s Azure Dragon bloodline…”

“Besides that, while escaping he also silently abducted Liu mansion’s young lady Ruoning…”

“Beyond these achievements, during his escape this young man cooperated with the Full Moon Sect holy maiden to kill seven Nascent Soul stage shadow guards from Liu mansion. One shadow guard was even deliberately left with parasitic demon seeds to self-destruct in the mansion courtyard, clearly a deliberate mockery aimed at Liu and Lin mansions, right?”

“Even your Lin mansion’s Elder Ming, with his impressive Emptiness Refining stage cultivation, was forced to retreat by that young man and the Full Moon Sect girl working together…”

“Honestly, in these past centuries, besides that National Advisor who can divine heavenly fortune, I truly haven’t seen such talent that inspires genuine admiration.”

Finishing, Hua folded the letter and turned curiously to observe Yune’s expression.

At the table’s other end, the Azure Dragon princess’s expression had darkened like black iron.

“Since you know he’s dangerous, you should have let me act earlier to strangle this evil spawn in its cradle!”

“A heaven-sent genius, wouldn’t killing him be a waste?”

The Silver Dragon beauty smiled. “Moreover, according to my sources, when that young man was in the Western Region, he moved and was protected by Nina the entire time… Since he’s Nina’s trusted subordinate, he likely has life-saving trump cards she gave him. If you rashly tried to kill him, you might end up losing more than you gain!”

“Hmph, so by your logic, we should just let him run wild in front of us?”

“He lives in the strictly regulated He mansion yet secretly collaborates with heretical cult. He’s clearly not some righteous loyal person…”

At this point, Hua narrowed her dragon eyes and smiled calmly: “Since he’s profit-driven and doesn’t distinguish between enemies and allies, why not try poaching him from Nina’s side?”

“What that silly girl give him? I can offer double.”

Yune stared in shock.
