Reborn As A Villainous Cannon Fodder

Chapter 485: Ch 485 – From now on, I will be his guardian.

“Junior Chaerin, are you still unconvinced?”

Yino turned around, looking at Ye Chaerin who was in her prime years, with black hair flowing in the September cold wind. Though his tone was gentle and caring, his eyes couldn’t help but contain some meaningful depth.

I didn’t expect that wearing that pair of rings with Ruoning and obtaining the inheritance of the Primordial Phantom Butterfly would trigger this kind of hidden plot…

This floor’s illusion probably replicates the Liuli Sect’s situation from a hundred years ago?

Young Chaerin was really a generation’s stunning sect idol Senior Sister, though the flute-playing attack style is still too elegant. Compared to the equally young Yuyan, it lacks several points of sharp energy.

And… I always feel like standing before young Chaerin as Senior Brother gives me an indescribable feeling of guilt…

“I am unconvinced!”

While Yino gazed at the lost in thought Chaerin, she had already bitten her red lips, she felt quite humiliated as she lowered her head to Yino.

“I was just careless, which is why I lost to such an… outsider silly girl”

The more Chaerin spoke, the more unwilling she became, her originally beautiful face unable to hide her shame and humiliation at this moment.

I didn’t expect young Chaerin to be quite arrogant…

Observing the girl’s facial expressions, Yino inexplicably felt his lips were hard to suppress.

After all, this scene was too different from the real Chaerin.

Who could imagine that the scheming, cold and calculating beauty who had Yino’s every move figured out was actually this naive when she was young.

“Cough… There’s no need to blame yourself. In my view, your performance just now was already quite good.”

Yino cleared his throat, trying to say some comforting words.

But this time, as his words fell, the azure-skirted girl kneeling on one knee suddenly looked up at Yino.

“I don’t know why, but Senior Brother’s gaze today is particularly nauseating?”

“…?”

Her voice was cold, her eyes full of humiliation and disgust, instantly making Yino break out in cold sweat.

Yino couldn’t help but take a cold breath.

Thinking carefully, this was an illusion replicating the Liuli Sect from a hundred years ago, and now Yino, due to various circumstances, was playing the role of the future Liuli Palace Master Jing Chen( but in his youth as the chief senior brother).

So Yino needed to act in accordance with Jing Chen’s consistent style.

But the key issue was, Yino had no idea what Jing Chen’s personality was like in the original work!

In the game, when the Liuli Palace Master appeared at the end of the illusion, he had already been brainwashed by the Crimson Prince and was in an almost mad state…

Who knew what Jing Chen’s personality was like when he was young?

“Tsk.”

Thinking of this, Yino couldn’t help but click his tongue.

He squinted coldly, staring at Ye Chaerin’s beautiful eyes, and tentatively tested some dialogue:

“Junior Chaerin, after all these years, can you only throw tantrums and roll around? You can’t even beat a silly girl from my side, and you still have the face to boldly challenge me? your Senior Brother?”

“?_?!”

The sudden mockery immediately made Chaerin’s humiliation turn even more shamefully red.

Hearing her Senior Brother’s words, many disciples below cried out in surprise.

Under everyone’s gaze, Chaerin’s delicate body trembled slightly, her hands clenched tightly under her azure sleeves. She raised her face with tears in her eyes, staring at Yino: ” One day, I will defeat you at the Liuli Grand Assembly! I will let everyone in the world know that I, Ye Chaerin, am the strongest illusion master of the Liuli Sect! I will make you understand! I am the one most qualified to be the Illusion Chief – the daughter of destiny!”

“Really? Do as you please.”

Looking at Ye Chaerin’s, Yino found it more and more amusing.

He couldn’t help but chuckle lightly and waved his hand: “Ruoning, let’s go. Don’t bother with this attention-seeking little clown.”

“A… are we really going to betray Master like this?”

On the Cloud Summit Platform of the Liuli Sect, Liu Ruoning glanced back at the humiliation on her master’s young face and cautiously leaned toward Yino to ask.

Yino didn’t seem to care in the slightest, shrugging his shoulders:

“What’s wrong with that? It’s just an illusion; the real Chaerin won’t know… Besides, I originally intended to be polite to her, but she looked at me with such disdain.”

“Well, that’s true… It seems that when Master was young, she didn’t have a good relationship with Sect Master Jing Chen?”

As they walked away from the scene, Ruoning couldn’t help but feel her heart fluttering like a startled deer.

Just two hours earlier, she and Yino had emerged from an ancient ruins and seamlessly entered this fourteenth-layer illusion.

Then, when Ruoning opened her eyes, she was already surrounded by numerous Liuli Sect disciples, being treated like the center of attention in the front gate plaza.

At that moment, Ruoning was utterly confused.

She found herself fearfully holding onto a man’s arm. When Ruoning looked closely, she noticed that the young man dressed in a purple brocade robe, who was shielding her from the crowd, looked exactly like Yino.

Ruoning looked up and noticed that the woman with a high ponytail and a green dress, making a grand entrance at the front of the crowd, bore an striking resemblance to her real-world master, Ye Chaerin.

At first, Ruoning asked Yino in their spiritual sea, but the latter also had no idea what this illusion meant. Jinyue and Yuebai were equally clueless.

Fortunately, as Chaerin stepped forward to initiate a conversation, Yino and Ruoning gradually immersed themselves in the different roles of this hundred-year-old Liuli Sect history.

Ruoning roughly pieced together the outline of the duel’s background.

This story actually follows the plot where Liuli Palace Master Jing Chen rescued Dia from the East Sea dungeon and brought her back to the sect.

At that time, Jing Chen, as the chief senior brother, returned from wandering the East Sea, and immediately, many young disciples swarmed around him with curiosity and admiration.
