Chapter 76: Phoenix Nirvana
Medicine King’s Valley, Little White Mice Breeding Center.
Yue Wuhuan was conscientiously cleaning their cages, changing their food, and checking the health of each mouse. Over the years, in order to get the special mice that Song Qingshi wanted, he put aside the breeding ideas written down in the materials and tried using a combination of pills and magical arrays to achieve the desired effect. He failed many times but finally found a suitable method. There was now one special mouse that was pregnant. The likelihood of it giving birth to more special mouse babies was very high. This would enable them to form a stable production of this mouse.
This batch of little white mouse babies will be his engagement gift to Song Qingshi.
Yue Wuhuan wished he could stay in the breeding house for the entire twenty-four hours in a day, taking care of this pregnant mouse, so as to prevent any mishaps.
Suddenly, the door of the breeding house opened.
Yue Wuhuan froze. There were several mice breeding centers in the Medicine King’s Valley. Most of them were of ordinary mice that were taken care of by the apprentices. This room engaged in special mice breeding was listed as off-limits. It was strictly disinfected and kept clean. Only he, Song Qingshi and Qing Luan were allowed to come in.
Song Qingshi was away.
Qing Luan would never push the door open in such a noisy manner.
There had been no movement in the Poisonous Fog Formation and the barrier enchantment. The Blood King Vine he had placed in a hidden spot hadn’t responded, not having detected the presence of the intruder.
In the immortal realm, such things represented the coming of danger.
A terrifying gaze was cast Yue Wuhuan’s way. The intruder indifferently sized him up, as though looking at a beautiful prey that was about to die. He whistled frivolously…
Yue Wuhuan conducted strict disinfection whenever he entered the breeding center. Not only did he wear a white robe, he also placed the golden mask on the shelf outside. Now, the danger had come silently, and he was unprepared. It was too late to mobilize the Cold Jade Technique and use the toxins to cover his features. He could only raise his head, revealing his clear face. He asked softly, “Can you go out?”
In front of him was an unfamiliar cultivator. Tall, handsome and imposing, he wore garments of golden feathers and black jade. He carried on him countless magical instruments, and around his waist was a sword with roving divine light. He was extraordinary. He looked at Yue Wuhuan as though he was an amusing joke. He suddenly released an immense amount of pressure. Waves of killing intent swept before him, trying to force to his knees this Foundation Building cultivator who knew not the height of the heavens or the depth of the earth.
This was a Fen Shen cultivator.
Yue Wuhuan could hardly stand firm. The mice beside him were affected by the pressure’s effects, making them cry out shrilly in pain.
These were Song Qingshi’s most precious little white mice. They mustn’t be harmed.
Yue Wuhuan hurriedly placed a barrier enchantment around the cages, begging, “Please don’t kill me here. It will dirty this place. Let us go out before you kill me.”
The Fen Shen cultivator was a little surprised when he saw him using all his willpower to hold on, refusing to kneel. He then saw the mice protected by the enchantment and his brows furrowed in disgust. With a snap of his fingers, several wind blades directly tore opened the roof and destroyed the walls. Dust flew up and rubble fell one after another, smashing onto the cages and experiment equipment. Hundreds of mice died and hundreds fled. Years of their heart's blood were destroyed in an instant.
Yue Wuhuan held firmly the cage containing the pregnant mouse, blocking all attacks.
His hair crown was smashed, long fine black hair spread out. His meridians were all injured because of the mighty pressure of his resistance. A trace of blood flowed out from the corner of his mouth…
Yue Wuhuan sat on the ground, looking at the scene before him in disbelief.
“Let me introduce myself. My name is Zhao Ye. Perhaps you know me by Yuan Yang Xianzun?” The man who claimed to be Zhao Ye stepped forward. He violently snatched the mouse cage from his arms and placed it on his fingertips, looking at it. He said in disgust, “What kind of dog-shit toy is this? So dirty.”
He threw the cage into the air and released several wind blades, tearing it to pieces. He then admired Yue Wuhuan’s shocked expression. One-handedly, he set off a magical burst. Raging fire ignited, burning away all the blood and corpses. He said with a smile, “Can you look at me now?”
With much difficulty, Yue Wuhuan shifted his gaze to him and said vigilantly, “Yuan Yang Xianzun closed his death gate eight hundred years ago. Who are you? What hatred do you have towards the Medicine King’s Valley?”
If a breakthrough seems hopeless for a cultivator, he may try to close the death door. Unless he dies or ascends, he would never leave. Books in the Medicine King’s Valley have recorded the achievements of the cultivator, Yuan Yang. He was a very determined Fen Shen cultivator. In order to break past his cultivation base, he has closed his death gate for many years. It was said that he had passed away a long time ago. How could he leave before he has managed to breakthrough? And on top of that, come looking for himself who was a total stranger?
“Haha, eight hundred years? I told them this body had a weird smell. It was even growing mushrooms. I almost thought it was a zongzi,” Zhao Ye laughed. “I will re-introduce myself. I am Space-Time Tasker #081, having just returned from the wild world, I received a last-minute task from the system to clean up the trouble caused by the rookie.”

It wanted to obtain Yue Wuhuan’s despair.
Zhao Ye would occasionally receive such tasks with additional conditions, and the rewards were extremely generous.
The mission this time was so simple, it was like going on a vacation.
“The tasker who saved you was called Song Qingshi? I have never seen such a stupid rookie,” Zhao Ye squatted down and grumbled with a smile on his face, “Novice missions have a difficulty safeguard. It’s super easy. He was just supposed to rescue the protagonist shou. How did he end up rescuing you, this cannon fodder?”
Yue Wuhuan sobered up from the agony caused by the destruction of the breeding room. He revealed just the right amount of fear, and grasped the key point. He carefully asked, “What is a protagonist shou?”
Zhao Ye said, “Bai Zihao, he is this world’s son of destiny.”
Yue Wuhuan thought for a while, and then asked, “And me?”
“You’re someone who was supposed to die,” Mentioning the rookie, Zhao Ye hated iron for not becoming steel. “There must be something wrong with that rookie’s brain. Even if the protagonist shou weren’t kindhearted, he should at least be pure in body. He shouldn’t have been f*cked by a man yet, right? How could he mistake him for filthy, horny trash like you?”
Yue Wuhuan trembled slightly.
Zhao Ye saw his fear and struck while the iron was hot, continuing to humiliate him. He vividly described the interesting scenes in the book. Bai Zihao saw the spectacle of him catering to the guests of the manor. Those unbearable poses, those wanton words, and then seeing his shameful expression…He sighed with feeling, “You truly are depraved.”
But, this cheap good was really beautiful.
Zhao Ye has also done this kind of task before. What he liked was the protagonist shou type, clean and lovable, simple and easy to coax, easily embarrassed. He just needs to save the other party from devil’s clutches, face-slap the vicious villain, and then pamper him sweetly in his palm. They’ll be happily rolling between the sheets. He’ll let him spend his life happily, and he’ll get a high score at the end of the mission.
He didn’t like Yue Wuhuan’s debauch kind of beauty. But, looking at the beautiful teardrop mole under his phoenix eyes, the luxurious and gorgeous facial features, and that slender waist…He felt a little itch in his heart. Even without the additional task, he would have wanted to ruthlessly bully him for a while, until he pushes him into the abyss of despair, and then he’ll kill him off. He didn’t conceal the matter regarding his mission, because he saw the pride in his bones from the opponent’s unyielding character. He wanted to deprive him of everything he had, destroy everything he cared about… and then after all that, kill him.
He skillfully humiliated him with each line he delivered. He sought out the weakness in the other party’s heart.
Yue Wuhuan’s only response was, “I don’t believe it.”
How could he possibly believe such an outrageous thing?
Zhao Ye had been prepared long ago. When he took on the additional task, he downloaded the rookie’s information, and now it came in handy as he revealed it to Yue Wuhuan using the water curtain technique.
In the water curtain technique, the scene of when Song Qingshi accepted the task from the system appeared. Although he has been sick for many years, his entire body was thin and out of shape, not the least bit good-looking, with hair cut short and wearing weird clothes, Yue Wuhuan still recognized those clearest of eyes. This was the young man he liked…
Song Qingshi was in a strange space, swearing to a strange sphere “I have read tens of thousands of books and they’re all imprinted in my memory. I am knowledgeable in medicine and nursing and have taken elective courses in psychology, which will allow me to solve the protagonist shou’s physical and mental issues. Moreover…I…I am very experienced in love…I love communicating with others. I can ab-absolutely complete this mission!”
…
Yue Wuhuan’s eyes opened wide. He was completely stunned. After a long while, the water curtain technique disappeared. He finally came back to his senses, and begged in a panic, “I don’t believe it. I want to see Qingshi. I want to ask him! ”
“You can’t see him anymore,” With a smile, Zhao Ye said the cruelest words, “He made a huge mistake and failed the mission. He’s been caught and brought back for punishment.”
Yue Wuhuan was surprised, “What punishment?”
“I failed once before and had my memory wiped, so I forgot what the punishment was. It should be something terrible,” Zhao Ye thought about it, but he couldn’t remember it. He smiled and said, “Don’t think about it anymore. He won’t be coming back to save you. You’re better off begging me. I might just be merciful and leave you with your life.”
From the book given to him by the system, Yue Wuhuan was a dissolute brainless flower-vase beauty. A mortal with a bad physique for cultivation, so his Foundation Building cultivation base must have been achieved by stuffing him with pills. Now that Song Qingshi has been taken away, he was just an ant that could be easily crushed to death with a single finger. He simply wasn’t worth the effort. On the other hand, those tricks in bed mentioned in the book were very interesting. He also wanted to see if this cannon fodder’s ability to serve in bed was as captivating as the book described. If he were to serve him well, he wouldn’t mind coaxing him, letting him live a few more days, and then killing him when he gets tired of playing with him.
Yue Wuhuan lowered his head, and tremblingly said, “I beg Xianzun for mercy…”
The fire in the breeding room was about to burn out, leaving countless black ash and sparks dancing in the wind.
Zhao Ye came over, lifted Yue Wuhuan’s face by his chin. He said ambiguously, “That depends on your performance.”
Yue Wuhuan momentarily froze. He then tremblingly stretched his fingers to the belt of Zhao Ye’s garment.
As soon as he touched it, he was caught by Zhao Ye. His hands were caught in his palms as Zhao Ye looked at them. Zhao Ye couldn’t help but praise, “These are a pair of really beautiful hands. Best suited for serving a man. It’s a pity that there are a few calluses on them. You should have taken care of them better.”
He liked to play with the hands of beauties the most. Yue Wuhuan had the most beautiful hands he had ever seen in his life. These hands alone were worth playing with for half a month.
Yue Wuhuan’s trembling was getting stronger and stronger. He gently withdrew his hands and after expending a lot of effort, finally, untied his belt, undoing the defensive formation of his vestment. He then looked at Zhao Ye with beseeching eyes. Speaking very gently but carrying with it a bit of the stimulation of desire, “Wuhuan has lots of fancy tricks. I will definitely be able to serve Xianzun to the fullest…”
It was such a nice voice. It must be even more seductive when he uses it to cry out in bed.
Zhao Ye stretched out his hand, thinking of sampling this devastating beauty.
With a smile, Yue Wuhuan took two steps back, “No need to rush.”
Suddenly, countless fiery red vines appeared on the ground, frantically wrapping around Zhao Ye’s body.
Zhao Ye realized that the little mouse still wanted to resist, but in the face of overwhelming power, what use was using tricks to take off his vestments? He sneered, and easily tore the vines apart. The vines fell into the fire and burned, emitted a lot of sparks. Immediately more Blood King Vines surged up, trying to block from chasing after Yue Wuhuan. But it was in vain. He walked step by step towards the struggling cannon fodder. He sneered, “I wanted to be gentle, but unfortunately you don’t know how to appreciate my kindness.”
Yue Wuhuan stepped back slowly, looking very pitiful. Clutching his neckline tightly, those beautiful phoenix eyes were full of entreaties, but he didn’t utter a single word. It was enough to arouse a man’s sadistic desires.
Zhao Ye became more and more excited. He didn’t pay attention to the situation behind him. From the burning flames of the Blood King Vine, a beautiful golden red butterfly flew out, pretending to mix in with the sparks dancing in the wind. It quietly landed on Zhao Ye’s neck. It instantly paralyzed him, injecting its poison. Zhao Ye’s powerful body began to rapidly decay. His limbs began to crumble piece by piece…
Yue Wuhuan stood up straight. The “pitiful” on his face disappeared, replaced by a bloodthirsty crazy smile.
Zhao Ye finally realized that he was not the brainless beauty written in the data. All the fear and timidity were an act, breaking down his defenses, shattering his guard. By the final blow, it was already too late.
The Nirvana Butterfly finally found a test subject.
“Xianzun, do you like this trick?”
“Xianzun, are you enjoying yourself?”
“Xianzun…”
Yue Wuhuan’s body was still trembling slightly. He looked at the pieces of flesh with its foul-smelling black water on the ground. There was no pity in his eyes, only disgust. He carefully avoided the dirty things, and placed this sinful soul into a specially-made soul lamp. He smiled and said, “I originally had this soul lamp made for Qingshi. Unfortunately, you’ve already soiled it. I don’t want it anymore.”
Zhao Ye’s soul rammed against the soul lamp in vain, wanting to rush out and kill this lunatic.
“Many of the things Qingshi did and said were incongruous with this world. He didn’t try very hard to conceal it,” Yue Wuhuan held the soul lamp and said softly, “I already knew early on that he was not a person of this world. I just didn’t dare ask… I was afraid he would disappear if I did. So I customized this lamp. If he were to leave this world, I would snatch him back and have him stay with me forever… I would treat his soul very tenderly. I would never hurt him.”
Feeling it might be a bit inappropriate, he hesitantly asked Zhao Ye, “Is this pathological?”
Zhao Ye was trapped in the soul lamp and wanted to curse eighteen generations of this madman’s ancestors.
The enchantment of the Nether secret realm cut off his interactions with the Phoenix Blood, but at this time, Song Qingshi should have already come out.
Yue Wuhuan started biting his nails, biting them until a fine trail of blood began to ooze. He was trying to calm down but the pain could not calm his anxiety. Instead, he became more and more irritable. He angrily tore this hateful soul to pieces, and then re-constructed it again. “Give Qingshi back to me! He’s mine!”
He was familiar with how to torture a soul. He tore it apart again and again, and then reformed it again and again.
Zhao Ye almost collapsed from the pain. His soul was constantly weakened until he sunk into a mindless state and a hole appeared.
Yue Wuhuan took this opportunity to invade his soul and directly checked his memory.
But, he hadn’t lied…
This unthinkable thing was true. Song Qingshi accepted the system’s mission to save the protagonist shou of the book, Bai Zihao, but… somehow, he mistakenly saved himself and caused the mission to fail. Those who failed their mission needed to return to the system space, accept punishment and have their memory wiped… and then start a new mission.
He couldn’t find where the system was…
He couldn’t find where Song Qingshi was…
Yue Wuhuan was extremely terrified. He used his fingers and scratched bloody marks on his wrists, desperately trying to convince himself not to be afraid.
Qingshi liked him.
Qingshi promised that when the special mice were bred, they would be Daoist companions. But, but what about the mice?
Yue Wuhuan turned his head hesitantly, looking at the burning ruins everywhere. He rushed in desperately, heedless of the scalding heat. He desperately broke open the crumbling wall, trying to find the little white mice that were still alive and Qingshi’s research notes on the little white mice.
His hands were scalded with numerous blisters. He got burns everywhere. But no matter where he looked, he was disappointed again and again.
In his heart, there suddenly came a premonition like the coming of end days.
His little white mice were gone…
Was his Daoist companion gone too?
Happiness was, in the end, just flowers in a mirror and the moon reflected in the lake. He had just been carried away by his own wishful thinking.
Yue Wuhuan suddenly remembered something. He took out Song Qingshi’s life card from the mustard seed bag. The life card was covered with cracks and was about to break. He brought out lots of materials, trying to protect this life card, trying to curb its collapse. But there were more and more cracks, growing bigger and bigger…
The Emotion Locking Gu on his neck couldn’t hold against the despair, and finally backlashed.
The sealed away love surged violently, engulfing everything, smashing the spider silk threads maintaining his reason.
The amount of love he has, was the amount of despair he has.
Yue Wuhuan was holding the almost shattered life card. He couldn’t stand steady and slipped into sitting among the ruins. He suddenly felt a dampness at the corners of his eyes. Strange drops of water fell on the scorched earth. Was it raining? He reached out and touched the wetness, then put it in his mouth and tasted it. The bitterness was almost unbearable… Was this his tears?
He still had tears?
How truly ridiculous…
Yue Wuhuan’s breathing was going chaotic, becoming more and more rapid, until he couldn’t get air into his lungs. His heart was constantly twitching and hurting more and more. His mind was sinking into confusion, gradually losing its ability to think. He knew that he was about to collapse. He knew that he had to believe in Qingshi. He had to wait for Qingshi. He couldn’t let his imagination continue to run wild. But the truths from Zhao Ye’s soul, continued to appear before his eyes. Even if he wanted to ignore it, he just couldn’t.
Song Qingshi submitted the wrong answer to the problem. He saved the wrong person, directed his gentleness to the wrong person.
Bai Zihao was the correct answer, he was the wrong answer.
What was Song Qing’s attitude towards mistakes?
The Grand Master’s mistakes, he seriously amended…
When he made a mistake in making friends, he ruthlessly abandoned…
The mistaken Dao Heart, he decisively destroyed…
Now, he has become a mistake…
Yue Wuhuan clutched his head, his teeth rattled. He let out a terrifying and desperate sound. He couldn’t continue thinking.
He slowly curled up in the darkness, trembling uncontrollably. He desperately grasped his hands, scratching them into a bloody mess. He wanted to scratch away all the skin on his hands. He didn’t want these beautiful hands that were suited to serving men. He didn’t want his body, he didn’t want his face, he didn’t want his hair, he didn’t want his eyes. Destroy everything…
Yue Wuhuan was a vicious lunatic. His body was unclean. His heart was not kind. He couldn’t be the pure and lovable protagonist shou who was pitied by everyone.
Therefore, he was a mistake. He did not have the qualifications to be saved.
“Qingshi, don’t give up on me…”
YUE WUHUAN AGHHHHHHHH you were never the mistake!!! You were the true answer!! Don’t give up don’t ever give up

Gaaahhh!!! Noooo!!! Wuhuan!!!! It’s not true! Qingshi Loves You! It’s Gotta be YOU!!! It’s Not a Mistake!!!! Gahhhh!!!!
(ノಥ益ಥ)ノ ┻━┻
I think I get it tho. So Qingshi messed up 1350 times, got his memories washed by System and can only remember the first thing he said every time he starts again. The part where he’s read lots of books and he’s got love experience. Without realizing his past lives are a fail because he keeps on falling for Wuhuan’s reincarnations again and again and again.
(ʃƪˆ▿ˆ) ♡ So in total, Qingshi has loved Wuhuan for 1350 life times!!! YAY!!! IT’S TRUE LOVE I TELL YOU!!! Thank you translator!
