Reborn as a Villain in Tales of Demons and Gods

Meeting Ninger Again



The date of the final test had arrived. All students had to test for their soul force and rank in front of everyone. The students with sufficient strength would then be transferred to special class training.

'According to the story, my brother Shen Fei would find trouble with Nie Li for being close to Ninger. But since Nie Li is not very close to Ninger this time, there should be no major conflict.'

As expected, Nie Li and his group scored high on the test surprising everyone. Shen Yue tested after most of them and controlled his strength to only reach a three star bronze rank. It was neither too high nor too low compared to Nie Li's group. Ninger was looking at Shen Yue but when she noticed his gaze, she turned away immediately. When she tested, she was five star bronze rank only one star lower than Zi Yun who was the first. Everyone was surprised by the accomplishments of the class.

When everyone has started to leave, Ninger slowly came up to Shen Yue. She has a nervous face as if hesitating about something.

"Shen Yue, can I talk to you?"

"Sure. Let's walk back together." Shen Yue was excited that she came to see him of her own accord.

"Shen Yue, your cultivation technique was very helpful. I was able to raise my cultivation so high because of it. I…I'd like to thank you." She was blushing a little.

"Don't worry about it. I am glad it was suitable for you."

"I'd like to give you this red jade as my thanks...and my momento." She was seriously blushing at this moment. She turned around to leave without saying goodbye.

"Oh, thanks a lot. Wait." Shen Yue followed her and caught her arm. She seemed surprised and shy while looking at his hand on her arm. Shen Yue quickly released his hand when he realized.

"I'd like to give you a gift as well. This is abstruse gemstone I got by chance. I want to give it to you. It should help with your cultivation." Shen Yue handed her the gemstone he got from the ruins.

She looked hesitant at first, then smiled beautifully. She didn't refuse it and took the gemstone necklace.

"Thank you. I will see you next semester." She turned around run away fast.

As Shen Yue was holding the red jade necklace, he remembered the significance of it. In the story, Ninger gave it to Nie Li and it was considered a token of love. This must mean that Ninger already has some feelings for me!' Shen Yue was ecstatic as he was holding this red jade. He was grinning and completely oblivious of his surroundings. When he recovered, he noticed many eyes looking at him with looks almost resembling jealousy and anger. But as soon as he looked back at them, they turned away. He was the young master of Sacred Family after all.

Among the crowd, Shen Yue also noticed the gazes of Nie Li and Zi Yun who were walking on the other side of the road. Nie Li had a serious look with a subtle displeasure on his face while Zi Yun was looking at him with a confused and somewhat curious expression. He just ignored them and kept walking with a smile on his face. He’s having a good day and nothing can affect his mood.

Back at home, Shen Yue started thinking about how the original storyline progressed. According to the story, Nie Li should have gone back home to visit his family after the school break. He will gain influence in his family with the help of Alchemist Guild. But since Nie Li didn't antagonize Shen Fei and made a bet with him, he will not be invited to the martial arts tournament Sacred family held where he manipulated Sacred Family elder Shen Ming into losing money.

As the story progressed further, Nie Li was supposed to be invited to City Lord's mansion for protection due to his performance in the tournament but since he didn't participate that will not happen now. But he will get invited to set up an array inside the mansion at some point. But he should now be going to Heaven's Sacred Border to meet Founder Ye Yan and pick up the Thunder God's meteorite sword with murderous aura.

'Right, on his way back he was supposed to be ambushed by a group led by my family elder Shen Ming because they thought he recognized them during the trip to the ruins. I don't know if that still happens now that I have changed certain things but I can't be sure. But this will be a turning point. Now is the time to make a decision on how to survive.’

This has been on his mind since he transmigrated. How to use his knowledge of his family’s connection with the dark sects and their plan to betray the Glory City. If he does nothing, he is sure he will be swept away by the tide and will not have a good ending. But he is too weak to change the overall direction of his family. The only way he could think of was to betray his family and cooperate with City Lord in return for some benefits. He doesn't have any close feelings to his family so he will not feel any strong guilt. The thing is how to approach the City Lord since any misstep can lead to disaster.
