The Female Lead Decides to Act Wickedly-Chapter 431 - 189: Entering the Martial World for the Second Time (Part 9)_2

Chapter 431: Chapter 189: Entering the Martial World for the Second Time (Part 9)_2

Wenren Jie sat on a stool cushioned with a mat, managing to give the shabby roadside tea stall an air of a lavish palace.

He slightly lowered his eyelids, looking at Zi Yi with a reserved air, and said lightly, "Hmm, not bad! Zi Yi is indeed very well-behaved!"

Behind him, the newly appointed maids and guards all displayed arrogant, satisfied expressions.

Yet Zi Yi was completely oblivious, her head slightly raised, her posture humble, with eyes brimming with infatuation.

A few disciples of the New Beggar Gang standing behind him couldn’t endure such humiliation and jumped out to denounce:

"Pavilion Master Wenren, isn’t this a bit too dismissive?"

Wenren Jie ignored these New Beggar Gang disciples and simply uttered a light "hmm."

Although soft, the sound carried threads of dissatisfaction.

With just that single syllable, no other words were necessary; Zi Yi once again lowered her head, maintaining a humble kneeling posture.

She even repeatedly apologized: "Young master, please forgive me. It is the fault of this servant for not training my people well!"

Wenren Jie burst out in a triumphant laugh.

Even if they were not the original three elders from the Beggar Gang, seeing such a scene, these disciples were filled with shame and indignation.

They had been incited by Gongsun He to leave the Beggar Gang, and were already somewhat regretful.

Unwilling to submit to a woman was their reason for not staying with the Beggar Gang.

Yet no sooner had they left the Beggar Gang than Gongsun He installed a woman as the gang leader!

This was... downright playing them for fools.

And that woman named Zi Yi practiced Deceptive Martial Arts, with her poison needles being particularly vicious.

Several disciples who regretted joining the New Beggar Gang and wanted to leave were poisoned to death by Zi Yi!

Their bodies bled from all orifices; the manner of death extremely horrific.

Such ruthless methods truly intimidated the disciples, who had no choice but to grit their teeth and follow Zi Yi and Gongsun He.

At this moment, seeing their proud "New Beggar Gang" leader crawling before the Master of Carefree Pavilion—an entity perceived as neither wholly righteous nor evil—in what seemed like fawning submission.

And acting as if he were the master!

Where was Zi Yi placing the brotherhood of the "New Beggar Gang"?

Were these Beggar Gang disciples also meant to serve the Master of Carefree Pavilion like servants?!

"Damn it, I can’t stand such a pathetic leader any longer!"

"Exactly, exactly. I originally didn’t want to serve the powerful as a servant, that’s why I ended up in the Itinerant World as a beggar. Now, look where we are—"

Aside from Gongsun He, the other Beggar Gang disciples were whispering amongst themselves, their dissatisfaction with their leader Zi Yi reaching a peak.

However, what was even more heart-wrenching for them was yet to come—

"...Later, you will go to Jade Villa and challenge Pei Jinghou, strike him dead with one palm!" Wenren Jie, holding a white jade teacup, sipped tea pretentiously while he casually ordered.

"Yes, young master! This servant will surely kill Pei Jinghou!" Zi Yi agreed without a moment’s hesitation.

The disciples standing behind her were having none of it, "Leader, our Beggar Gang is the world’s largest sect—"

Indeed, although these people followed Gongsun He to leave the Beggar Gang and establish their own sect, deep down they still considered themselves Beggar Gang disciples.

"Known for valour and righteousness, and Hero Pei, as the Martial Arts Alliance Hierarch, serves the country and the people, and has always acted with honor. How could you harm an innocent man?!"

The disciples of the Beggar Gang echoed in agreement, "Yes, exactly!"

Only Gongsun He thought differently; he was, after all, nothing more than a dog raised by Wenren Jie.

Understanding and supporting Zi Yi’s respectful obedience, Gongsun He wanted to quell the burgeoning anger.

He stepped forward to explain, "The leader is thinking of the greater good in doing this. With the Master of Carefree Pavilion’s exceptional martial arts, and the support of Pavilion Master Wenren, allying with them offers the best chance to seize the position of Martial Arts Alliance Hierarch!"

But Gongsun He’s words did little to convince the masses.

"Helping a tyrant! Even if, by some fluke, you defeat Hero Pei and seize the position of Martial Arts Alliance Hierarch, you will be scorned by heroes all over the world!"

"Having you as a leader is a disgrace to the Beggar Gang! Zi Yi, you’re simply unworthy to lead us."

Gongsun He countered once more, "Spreading malicious rumors, disturbing the morale. Leader, kill him!"

Zi Yi could accept any amount of humiliation from Wenren Jie but couldn’t stand being despised by others.

Being reminded of her duties within the Beggar Gang already caused her shame. Hearing Gongsun He’s words and seeing Wenren Jie’s approving look, she suddenly felt a surge of killing intent.

Rising from the ground, she swung a palm towards the Beggar Gang disciple.
