Villain: After Truncating the Heroine, the Protagonist Collapses

240: Ye Tian was killed! The outer sect brother Sikong Ming who was practicing body trainingYang Yucheng’s peripheral vision, all his attention, was focused on Su Ran.

He watched as the excitement on Su Ran’s face gradually faded, finally turning to calm, and his heart was also filled with a sense of disappointment.

In the end, did it still fail?

As expected.

His Luck was still not enough.

Yang Yucheng was, after all, a major villain, not a Child of Destiny, and not someone who could have everything go smoothly.

Meanwhile, Su Ran’s thoughts were:

“This method sounds really good, but couldn’t This True Disciple do it alone? Why drag the two of them into it?”

“I have a method!”

“It’s simple and easy for This True Disciple to find someone; just kick those two aside, and This True Disciple can take everything for himself. Wouldn’t that be better?”

As he thought about it.

Su Ran’s slightly narrowed eyes now held a hint of ill intent when he looked at Yang Yucheng.

Even the Protector Han, his nominal Revered Master beside him, seemed to be in danger.

Indeed.

The inherent nature of those in power is to think this way at the first opportunity.

A single phrase can describe it:

Mine, mine, all mine!

…This day, in the early morning.

White mist rose, and the surroundings were hazy.

Inside the Servant Courtyard, all the Utility Disciples were gathered!

Ye Tian was no exception.

Although he was currently a Utility Disciple by Yang Yucheng’s side, there was a chasm between their statuses.

Utility Disciples could only live in the Servant Courtyard.

Unless Yang Yucheng personally summoned him and kept him by his side, the Servant Courtyard was his current place of residence!

Ye Tian was not the only one in this situation.

Most of the Utility Disciples who were previously in Ascension Immortal City and now in the Servant Courtyard were in the same predicament!

Even those who had already become official Sect Disciples, most of the Utility Disciples by their side, nine out of ten, remained here and did not accompany their patrons, the official Sect Disciples, to live together.

On one hand, the Servant Courtyard was the true home for Utility Disciples within the Sect.

On the other hand, for most official Disciples!

Even a Steward like Yang Yucheng was only just settling down, and whether he could establish himself was still an unknown.

Bringing their Utility Disciples along would likely only add to the trouble!

Therefore.

Utility Disciples like Ye Tian, who had patrons, would only gradually leave after a certain period.

It could be as quick as half a month, or as slow as a month, and it wasn’t that difficult to endure.

Ye Tian sat alone in a not-so-obvious corner of the Servant Courtyard.

He didn’t have many tasks.

The Steward Lord of the Servant Courtyard knew his identity, so he only needed to go through the motions. Most of his days were spent cultivating the basic introductory Cultivation Technique that Qingyun Grotto-Heaven had given them after they entered the Servant Courtyard.

The other two from the Ye Family, Ye Mei and Ye Yu, were in a similar situation.

Although they were not Utility Disciples, but concubines.

Their current situation was still very similar to that of Utility Disciples; they also needed to wait for half a month or even a month before they could return to the side of a patron like Yang Yucheng.

However, there was still a difference in status compared to Utility Disciples.

So, the two of them had their own independent rooms, no tasks assigned, and the amount of spirit crystals they received each month was basically on par with what Outer Sect Disciples received.

Therefore, at this moment, the two of them sat together, their gaze falling upon.

The busy figures of the Utility Disciples before them.

Their eyes swept over Ye Tian.

Ye Yu’s pretty face revealed a hint of helplessness.

She sighed.

“Our Young Clan Head of the Ye Family is truly arrogant. He could easily use the Young Master’s name to make things easier, so why not?”

“He insists on not wanting to owe the Young Master any more favors, as if he owes him little now.”

“The Young Master particularly admires Ye Tian! With such arrogance, perhaps he can help the Young Master in the future.”

“With A-grade Aptitude and the potential to Awaken a spiritual body, his future is destined to be different from ours!”

Ye Mei raised her delicate eyebrows slightly, and a subtle hint of expectation appeared on her face, but what she anticipated was not Ye Tian before her, but her own future!

Upon hearing this, Ye Yu’s expression froze, and seeing Ye Mei in a way she had never seen before, slight ripples appeared in her heart.

She had only been grumbling and complaining.

She truly hadn’t expected Ye Mei to explain so earnestly.

Moreover.

The other party’s perspective was indeed much grander than she had previously imagined!

For a moment, it was Ye Yu who seemed to lack ambition!

“But it seems!”

Ye Yu was about to explain something when she suddenly changed the subject, her words lingering, “Our Young Clan Head, who can help the Young Master in the future and even become his right-hand man.”

“Is currently facing some trouble!”

Following the sound, she looked!

Ye Mei’s expression changed, but she wasn’t flustered.

Ye Tian was their Ye Family’s Young Clan Head.

With his talent returned, not just anyone could bully him!

Regarding the previous competition between their Young Clan Head and the noble daughter of the Su Family, Inner Sect Disciple Su Tianqing, at the Ye Family market, both of them had heard quite a bit.

They wouldn’t be overly nervous because of this small friction.

“Ye Tian, are you sure you’re not joining us? What’s so good about following Yang Yucheng?”

“From beginning to end, in his eyes, you’re nothing but a dog. You truly don’t amount to much. Joining us is what you should do!”

“A-grade Aptitude, what a waste!”

Outer Sect Disciple Sikong Ming said slowly to Ye Tian, a smile on his face.

He wore gray-black clothes and was quite handsome.

However, this seemingly sincere smile at the moment was truly nauseating.

“Senior Brother Sikong, you must be talking about yourself, right? Just because you have an Inner Sect Disciple as a patron, you dare to act so recklessly within the Grotto-Heaven?”

“And you’re causing trouble here in the Servant Courtyard? Do you really not put the Steward Lord of the Servant Courtyard in your eyes?”

Ye Tian spoke indifferently, directly refuting him.

“And in the eyes of that Inner Sect Senior Brother, Senior Brother Sikong should be a true and proper dog!”

“The relationship between Senior Brother Yang and I is not as simple as you think, Senior Brother Sikong. I, Ye Tian, am an upright and honorable person!”

Ye Tian crossed his arms.

He looked straight at Sikong Ming, a faint hint of sarcasm in his eyes.

“Ye Tian, don’t forget your status.”

“Even if you have Yang Yucheng as a patron, so what? Right now, you are just a lowly Utility Disciple. A mere Utility Disciple dares to show off in front of me?”

“I think you don’t want to live today!”

A flicker of coldness and anger passed through Sikong Ming’s pupils as he looked at Ye Tian.
