I, a Villainous Cannon Fodder, Pick Up the Female Lead at the Start? - Chapter 2

Chapter 2: The Female Lead, Su Wanqing

***

When she felt like she was about to suffocate, Lin Muyu was suddenly released, her small face flushed red as she gasped for breath.

The fairy seemed to regain some clarity.

“Fairy, you’re finally awake!”

Lin Muyu wept tears of joy, thinking she was about to lose her chastity here.

“Who are you?” came a hoarse voice.

“I am…”

Just as Lin Muyu was about to answer, those jade-like slender and cold hands had already gripped her neck.

The suffocating sensation like a black snake coiling around her brain climbed up, and she could only stare at the person before her while clawing with her hands.

“Sorry, I don’t want to…” The fairy’s face was full of apology, her eyes filled with conflicted pain.

Lin Muyu suddenly understood, she was being mistaken for a man, and the fairy didn’t want to lose her chastity, so she planned to strangle her to death!

But I just wanted to save her…

Lin Muyu felt some regret. She shouldn’t have been soft-hearted and saved someone randomly. In this life, she was going to die here again, dying just as carelessly as in her previous life…

Thinking of this, two streams of hot tears flowed down Lin Muyu’s cheeks. The suffocating sensation made her struggle continuously, her head becoming more and more dizzy, her lungs more and more parched.

“So sleepy, am I going to die?”

Using up the last bit of her struggling strength, Lin Muyu weakly let her hands drop, accepting her fate. Perhaps giving up wouldn’t be so painful.

Great-grandmother seemed to be beckoning to her…

Past experiences flashed before her eyes faster and faster. Was this her life flashing before her eyes?

Just as she was about to lose consciousness, the restraint on her neck suddenly loosened, and gulps of air nourished her parched lungs through her nostrils.

“Cough cough, didn’t you want to…” Having caught her breath, Lin Muyu was just about to harshly question the person before her when…

The fairy’s mouth was still murmuring: “So hot~”

Oh no!

Lin Muyu tried to run again, but just as she moved her legs, she was pulled back. The difference in strength left her with no power to resist.

This time she wasn’t so lucky, the fairy didn’t regain consciousness again.

……(All censored!)

The drowsy Lin Muyu had just woken up when she discovered her whole body was extremely sore.

Lin Muyu struggled to open her eyes and met a pair of cold, conflicted eyes.

A cold sword was pressed horizontally against her neck, slightly drawing blood.

Was she planning to kill her to silence her?

Cultivators really did care about their reputation. Even though she was also a girl, the fairy didn’t plan to spare her.

A trace of loneliness flashed in Lin Muyu’s eyes, and a touch of sadness surged in her heart.

She really shouldn’t have meddled in others’ affairs…

The person before her had conflicted eyes, her red lips slightly parted: “Thank you. Sorry.”

Completely opposite words came from her mouth.

Was she thanking her for saving her, yet unwilling to spare her?

What a cruel heart…

Lin Muyu didn’t know where she found the courage. She gave a bitter laugh and moved her neck with difficulty, shouting in a hoarse voice: “Come on then.”

Then she quietly closed her eyes, a string of salty, bitter tears seeping from the corners of her eyes as she waited quietly for death to arrive.

Even though she was willing to give up everything and come live in a remote village, fate didn’t plan to spare her.

Maybe fate was punishing her for not following the script and serving as a stepping stone for the male and female leads. But didn’t cannon fodder deserve their own lives too?

How truly tragic…

“Sigh.”

A deep sigh reached her ears. Lin Muyu felt the cold sword on her neck had been removed, and she opened her eyes with some confusion.

At this moment, the fairy had already put on her clothes. She was unwrapping the cloth strips from her arm. What surprised Lin Muyu was that the huge wound had actually healed completely without a trace of scarring.

“You’re not going to kill me?”

Lin Muyu struggled to wipe the tears from the corners of her eyes with her hand, somewhat puzzled. Didn’t she care about her chastity? Wasn’t she planning to kill her?

“I’m sorry, it was my fault. I shouldn’t have blamed you. I’ll take responsibility.”

The fairy solemnly used a spell to clean the bloodstains from the cloth strips and returned them to Lin Muyu.

“Take responsibility?”

This person still had some conscience!

Lin Muyu didn’t want to die either, and chastity wasn’t really a big problem for her since she could never marry anyway.

If she wanted to marry, with her beauty, she could completely make big money.

After all, she was known as the highest quality cultivation material in the Hehuan Sect in nearly a hundred years… Who would want to become cultivation material!

But she definitely wouldn’t do that.

Logically speaking, she was still quite profitable from this.

After all, the fairy before her was too beautiful, too much her type. Lin Muyu was willing to give her beauty a perfect 10!

It’s just that she actually wanted to kill her just now, minus 1 point!

But why was she so violent…

Not gentle at all.

Minus another point.

Lin Muyu reached out to take the cloth strips, but her whole body was so sore and weak that she couldn’t move at all.

This feeling was like sprinting 1,000 meters a hundred times in a row.

She felt like she was going to die…

How long had passed? Why was her whole body so sore?

Looking at the stars twinkling outside the window, it was already night. Had so much time passed?

Seemingly noticing Lin Muyu’s predicament, the fairy cast a small spell. A green light shot from her fingertips, and Lin Muyu immediately felt much lighter.

“So this is a spell? How nice.”

Sighing with admiration, Lin Muyu finally sat up. Only then did she realize she was still completely naked, her body covered with unknown red marks.

There were also a few drops of bright red blood on the bedsheet.

“Ah! You pervert!”

Lin Muyu’s face immediately turned red, and she hurriedly covered her body with the bedsheet, looking like a little lady who had been bullied.

The fairy tilted her head in confusion, seeming not to understand Lin Muyu’s reaction: “But we’re both girls…”

At this point, the fairy suddenly realized something, yesterday she had done that kind of thing.

Her porcelain-white face quickly flushed red, and she hurriedly turned around.

Lin Muyu picked up her clothes with some shame and anger, preparing to put them on, only to discover that these clothes had been completely torn apart.

…This person looked so beautiful, so why was she so violent!

“Ah ah ah, you owe me clothes!”

“Clothes?”

The fairy tilted her head slightly and cast a spell. Lin Muyu was immediately wrapped in the same style of plain dress as her.

Lin Muyu had just complained casually, but unexpectedly the person before her really gave her a set of dress and directly put it on her. This silk-made dress must be worth quite a lot.

Mm, why did this dress have a fragrant scent, very similar to the fragrance the fairy had given her yesterday? Could it be that the fairy had worn it before?

That was actually quite nice.

Lin Muyu struggled to get up, her steps unsteady. Suddenly remembering that she still didn’t know the fairy’s name, she asked: “Um, my name is Lin Muyu. What’s your name?”

“Su Wanqing.”

“What?!”

Lin Muyu couldn’t believe her ears. Wasn’t this the name of the female lead she had been avoiding all along?!

No wonder she was so beautiful.

She was doomed… She was going to be thrown to the Hehuan Sect by the male lead to become cultivation material…
