At the Beginning, The Villain Went for the Saintess, and the Protagonist Lost His Cool!

Chapter 2: Don’t Want It? Fine, I Won’t Give It!:

“Holy Son, I need to focus on my cultivation. If there’s nothing urgent, please don’t summon me again.”
Fairy Leng Yue spoke calmly, her tone distant.

Clearly, she was displeased by Su Mo’s summons.

Hearing this, Su Mo retracted his gaze, his expression remaining indifferent, as though nothing in the world could disturb his state of mind.

“No wonder she’s called the Green Tea Saintess. She’s really good at putting on airs,” Su Mo thought with a faint smile, completely unbothered by her impatience.

From what he knew, Fairy Leng Yue was one of the female leads tied to the protagonist’s fortune early in the novel.
She and the protagonist had grown up together as childhood sweethearts, forming a solid bond from a young age.

However, because Leng Yue possessed the Heavenly Enchantment Physique, she caught the eye of a prodigy from a top-tier sect.
Later, she was forcibly taken as a concubine by this prodigy.

This marked the first major crisis faced by Leng Yue and the protagonist.
The conflict escalated into a large-scale battle, with the families of Leng Yue and the protagonist joining forces to resist the prodigy.
Even so, they suffered heavy losses, and both families were nearly wiped out.

If Su Mo not happened upon the scene and recognized Leng Yue’s rare physique, he might never have intervened.
Without his help, Leng Yue would have likely been turned into a cultivation furnace, and the protagonist would have ended up as a cold corpse.

When Su Mo appeared back then, his entrance was nothing short of spectacular, embodying the aura of a true powerhouse.
With a single move, he suppressed the top-tier sect’s prodigy.

Though the prodigy wasn’t killed, Su Mo warned him sternly, forbidding any further actions against Leng Yue or the protagonist.
To defy Su Mo’s orders would mean challenging the entire Absolute Void Holy Land.

That battle ended with Su Mo’s intervention, and Leng Yue and the protagonist were saved.
At first, both Leng Yue and the protagonist were deeply grateful to Su Mo, treating him with utmost respect.

After all, his rescue was equivalent to granting them a second life.

Seeing their potential, Su Mo had brought them into the Absolute Void Holy Land.
He even used his status as the Holy Son to elevate them both to the rank of true disciples.

This series of actions made Su Mo better to Leng Yue and the protagonist than even their own parents.

Of course, as the Holy Son at the time, Su Mo had his reasons.
The protagonist’s talent was extraordinary, and Su Mo saw the potential for future benefit.
As for Leng Yue, her Heavenly Enchantment Physique made her an ideal cultivation partner. If he could win her over, it would greatly enhance his cultivation.

Taking them in seemed like a win-win situation.

But now, as Su Mo reflected on it, these two were like ticking time bombs within the Absolute Void Holy Land.
If he didn’t suppress them completely, they would surely become a massive problem in the future.

His eyes flickered as he thought about the situation. Although he had only recently taken over, things had already progressed beyond repair.

For instance, when Leng Yue first joined the Absolute Void Holy Land, the previous Holy Son couldn’t help but fall for her.
He became infatuated, pursuing her madly.

Despite the Holy Land already having a Saintess, he had used his position to pressure the elders into appointing Leng Yue as a second Saintess.

This led to an awkward situation of having two Saintesses in the Absolute Void Holy Land.
The original Saintess was heartbroken and fell into despair, becoming so depressed that she almost succumbed to illness.

Still, the previous Holy Son ignored everything, doubling down on his fawning efforts.
He was so devoted, so earnest in his pursuit that it became both laughable and pitiful.
He could easily be crowned the ancestor of all fawning fools.

As for Leng Yue, she was no easy character either.
While she rejected the Holy Son’s advances, she readily accepted all the benefits he offered.

What was even more infuriating was that many of these benefits ended up in the hands of the protagonist.
In fact, aside from his golden finger, the protagonist’s greatest opportunities early on came from the resources and techniques gifted by the Holy Son.

The families of Leng Yue and the protagonist also rose to power with the Holy Son’s support, becoming the top two families in Xuantian City.
They went from ordinary clans to elite powerhouses.

Yet, in the end, these two betrayed the Saint. Under the guise of righteousness, they turned against him.
Claiming they were abandoning darkness for light, they justified attacking the Absolute Void Holy Land as an act aligned with the heavens’ will.

When Su Mo had first read this part of the novel, he thought the Holy Son’s character was absurdly foolish.

As a dignified Holy Son of a holy land with unparalleled status, what kind of woman couldn’t he have?
Why insist on hanging himself on this one tree?

Moreover, the Holy Son had a childhood sweetheart—the original Saintess of the Absolute Void Holy Land—who was known as one of the ten most beautiful women in the Eastern Wilderness.
Why overlook her in favor of fawning over Leng Yue, the “Green Tea Saintess”?

Still, Leng Yue’s beauty and Heavenly Enchantment Physique were undeniably exceptional. If one avoided emotional entanglements and treated her solely as a cultivation partner, she would be invaluable.
After all, the Heavenly Enchantment Physique was one of the ten great physiques.

Dual cultivating with her would not only improve one’s innate talent and foundation but also significantly enhance cultivation progress, balance yin and yang, and deepen comprehension.

As a villain, why should Su Mo concern himself with morality?
He would do whatever benefited him most!

This Leng Yue? He was determined to have her!
Why choose when he could have it all?

With this thought, a cold glint flashed in Su Mo’s eyes as he fixed his gaze on Leng Yue once more.

Leng Yue noticed his attention and grew visibly more impatient.
Before Su Mo could speak, she interjected, her tone indifferent.

“Holy Son, I know why you summoned me. There’s no need to gift me more pills or techniques. Leng Yue doesn’t lack such things.”

Her words were calm, but her frustration was evident. She didn’t want anything from Su Mo.
Yet, the Holy Son kept giving, and if she refused, he would destroy the items instead. His domineering behavior disgusted her.

Leng Yue shook her head slightly, not even sparing him a glance. She appeared fearless.

She understood the Holy Son’s feelings for her, which emboldened her to act this way.
As the Saintess of the Absolute Void Holy Land, even though she lacked support within the sect, her status was equal to the Holy Son’s.

Leng Yue sighed quietly, feigning disappointment. Inwardly, she thought, “Fine, if he insists on giving, I’ll just pass everything to Brother Lin. After all, Brother Lin still hasn’t recovered from his injuries from the last battle.”

Hearing Leng Yue’s response, Su Mo sneered inwardly: “She doesn’t lack these things now that she’s been appointed Saintess. Does she even remember who raised her to this position? And now she’s putting on airs?”

Su Mo didn’t voice his thoughts. Instead, he nodded slightly and said, “Very well, then. I won’t give you this Heaven Origin Pill.”

Don’t want it?
Fine, I won’t give it to you!
