Chapter 231 - The Origin of the Path to Death

Inside the carriage.

Ning Rongrong and Xiao Wu were both stunned.

Uh… what?

No one said you'd have to pass a vote from the group just to become an Administrator?

Ning Rongrong looked at Su Yan. "Brother Su Yan, I don't have any black marks, right?"

Su Yan gave a faint smile.

"Just a tiny bit spicy!"

The little rabbit blinked. "What about me?"

"Pfft—"

Su Yan couldn't hold it in and burst out laughing.

Little Rabbit: ???

Dugu Yan and the others were also amused.

"Good, good, good!"

"The disgrace of Spirit Beasts truly lives up to its name."

"Su Yan only had to think about it and he laughed so hard; little rabbit, you're blessed."

Xiao Wu's face froze; she rolled her eyes at Su Yan, speechless. I really want to keep your mouth shut forever.

[Yanzi is not a Swallow: Sisters, I can leak a bit of gossip—Little Rabbit has so many roast-worthy points that Su Yan laughed just thinking about them.]

[Bibi Dong: Disgrace of Spirit Beasts!]

[Liu Erlong: One word—epic.]

[Call Me Her Majesty the Empress: Aoo, little rabbit you're done for. Just wait till I come and beat you up!]

Meanwhile.

After some thought, Su Yan began.

[Su Yan: In his past life Tang San was an Outer Sect Disciple of Tang Sect in a WuxiaWorld. He stole an inner-door Cultivation Technique and was hunted by the Elders. In the end he jumped off a cliff to prove his loyalty to Tang Sect.]

[Call Me Her Majesty the Empress: Why does that feel contradictory?]

[Dark Avenger: ???]

[Winter Cutie: I don't get it either. An outer Disciple steals an inner technique and then jumps off a cliff to prove innocence—what's the point?]

[Big Cat in the Shadow: Are you guys dense? Doesn't that opening already spell out Tang San's style?]

[Cat in the Shadows: Ice-Pure and Jade-Clean God-King Tang.]

[Bibi Dong: Big and Little Cat are right. Stealing inner techniques = traitor in Tang Sect's eyes. To protect his image and righteous façade he jumps off the cliff—escapes reality and keeps his halo.]

[Group Member Number Nine: High EQ—jump to prove loyalty. Low EQ—suicide to escape punishment. (funny)]

[Yanzi is not a Swallow: As expected of you.]

[Call Me Her Majesty the Empress: Nine, how come your message even shows a funny emoji?]

[Group Member Number Nine: Found something fun, not telling. (Smirk)]

[Call Me Her Majesty the Empress: I'll eat you sooner or later!]

[Su Yan: ???]

[Liu Erlong: Nine, even the Admin didn't know that feature—how'd you dig it up?]

[Ah Yin: As expected of you!]

Back in the carriage.

Dugu Yan and the others all turned to Ye Lingling, eyes wide.

"You're such a clever little imp!"

[Su Yan: Actually, I meant… Tang San didn't know crafting the Buddha's Fury Tang Lotus hidden weapon could commute his death sentence.]

[Nine Treasures Little Princess: Huh?]

[Loves Eating Carrots: So he died for nothing?]

[I Am an Orphan: I can't hold it anymore.]

[Everyone: 666.]

[Su Yan: During Dou I Tang San was two-faced, hypocritical, and ruthless. The worst part: he posed as a moral beacon while being a traitor who stole inner techniques. If he'd just owned up, no one could roast him.]

[I Am an Orphan: Like you, a scumbag who's completely open?]

Back in the carriage.

Su Yan typed after a moment's thought.

[Su Yan: Yep. There's a term—aboveboard schemes can't be stopped. Total honesty makes you untouchable; you play with an open hand.]

[Bibi Dong: So no one can morally bind you because you don't have morals, right?]

[Bo Saixi: Makes sense. This Little Bastard's full of bad ideas yet feels sincere—rotten but not disgusting.]

[Group Member Number Nine: Did you also eat Su Yan's saliva?]

[Cat in the Shadows: Hahaha!!]

[Bo Saixi: Nine, just wait. Sooner or later I'll meet you and see how slick that mouth really is.]

[Ah Yin: You'll be disappointed.]

[I Am a Little Bird: In real life Nine can't say three sentences; totally different from the chatty hero in here.]

[Group Member Number Nine: Did you sniff that out?]

Inside the carriage.

Ye Lingling's expression stayed serene and gentle.

Ling Yuan almost doubted whether the Nine in chat was really her.

"Come here."

Ling Yuan pulled Ye Lingling into her arms and gently pinched her cheek.

Ye Lingling merely gazed quietly at Ling Yuan, her eyes showing no emotion.

"Hahaha!!"

Dugu Yan laughed. "This Group Chat is perfect for Lingling and me."

"One of us loves gossip, the other's usually silent—our favorite playground."

The little rabbit sighed. "Doesn't seem to suit me; I can't keep up."

[Su Yan: Next is the version without me—my presence changed the plot a bit.]

[Su Yan: Last time we said when Tang San awakened his Spirit, Tang Hao didn't plan to send him to school. Only with Grandpa Jack's help did he get into Nuoding Academy.]

[Su Yan: On his first day the gatekeeper doubted and blocked him. Tang San almost pulled a hidden weapon to kill him on the spot—if Gang Zi hadn't shown up, Saint Spirit Village would've been doomed.]

[Cat in the Shadows: Contradiction?]

[Big Cat in the Shadow: Probably just looking down on country folk.]

[Su Yan: Partly. But Tang San's Blue Silver Grass with Innate full spirit power was too freakish—why would a gatekeeper believe it?]

[Cat in the Shadows: Got it. Ex-assassin—first instinct when clashing is to kill.]

[Su Yan: Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record—Rule 3: Once sure the opponent is an enemy with the path to death, show no mercy or you'll only bring yourself trouble.]

[Group Member Number Nine: So that's where 'path to death' comes from?]

[Liu Erlong: Damn! Su Yan, why post this Secret Manual? If the Old Woman sees it we're all dead.]

[Call Me Her Majesty the Empress: Hahaha!!]

[Dark Avenger: Bibi Dong—Liu Erlong, you dare call me Old Woman? You already have the path to death.]

[Ma Xiaotao: Hold on, Xiaoya, did you learn the Mysterious Heaven Treasure Record's path to death too?]

[Dark Avenger: ???]

[Red Dust Meng Meng Meng: Blue Silver Saintess, why so serious? Born without a sense of humor?]

[Dark Avenger: You bastard, one day I'll have my child of destinyDisciple beat you to death!]
