I am the villain in the book

Does selfless giving truly exist in this world?

This question is perhaps difficult to discuss clearly.

But at least in this world of cultivation where the strong are respected, the answer is most likely no.

Wei Changtian didn't know the price Qin Zhengqiu paid to help him, nor did he know that Qin Zhengqiu didn't believe his story of "meeting an immortal in a dream."

He couldn't guess Qin Zhengqiu's true thoughts, but he didn't really need to know.

Because Wei Changtian himself had always believed in "giving necessarily requires a return."

Qiu Yun treats him wholeheartedly, so he is willing to kill the prime minister for a maidservant.

Yang Liushi has given a lot for him, so he is willing to risk going to the top of Yanyun Mountain to save her.

Zhang San is his right-hand man, so he is willing to take the trouble to solve his marriage problems.

Now that Qin Zhengqiu has also helped him, if the Tianluo Sect needs it in the future, he will try his best to repay this favor.

As for those who have nothing to do with him, Ning Qingyu, whose family was tragically exterminated, is an example.

Wei Changtian admits that he doesn't have the awareness of a "great hero who serves the country and the people", and he never wants to be a hero like Xiao Feng who saves the world.

He can even kill such a hero directly for his own sake.

Call it selfish or narrow-minded.

Since he was never the protagonist, he should do less of what the protagonist would do.

To put it simply, it's six words—

Mind your own business, and you'll live longer.

"Young master, there are bandits chasing a woman ahead."

The carriage was speeding on the road from Jiuding Mountain back to Shuzhou City, and Zhang San's voice came from the front of the carriage.

"The woman seems to have practiced a little martial arts, and she is running towards us now."

"Huh?"

Wei Changtian was stunned for a moment and asked, "Is she running faster or is the carriage faster?"

"The carriage is faster."

"Okay, go around it."

"Help!"

"Save me!"

A woman in an embroidered skirt ran straight towards the speeding carriage, followed by a group of ferocious bandits.

As Zhang San said, this woman is a cultivator, but she is only at the ninth rank, just entering the ranks.

This situation is actually not uncommon, especially in many wealthy families.

If the women of these families can cultivate, the family will often help them cultivate to the ninth rank.

One is to strengthen the body and prolong life, and the other is to facilitate marrying a good family in the future.

Of course, there are also people like Liang Qin and Xu Qingwan who have completely embarked on the path of martial arts because of this, but in general, they are still a minority.

Most women basically consider it a goal accomplished if they can enter the ninth rank, and they don't plan to continue on the path of cultivation.

The woman in front of her obviously belongs to this category.

"Help!!"

"There are bandits chasing me, please save me!"

The carriage in sight is getting closer and closer, and the bandits behind her are also getting closer and closer.

"Hahaha, get out of here! Don't delay us from enjoying ourselves!"

"."

The bandits were shouting arrogantly while chasing, but their steps were slightly slower, as if they were quite afraid of this carriage.

This is also normal, after all, normal people would probably not rush straight over if they knew there was a group of bandits doing evil ahead.

The woman seemed to understand this, and a glimmer of hope instantly ignited in her eyes, and her pace was a little faster.

A hundred zhang, eighty zhang, sixty zhang...

The distance between the two sides is getting closer and closer, and the carriage still hasn't slowed down.

The woman bit her teeth tightly, using all her strength to stagger towards the only way to survive, and she could even see the coachman's calm expression.

"Help!"

"Sav-"

The desperate cry for help stopped abruptly.

Because with a neigh of the horse pulling the cart, the carriage on the opposite side suddenly turned into the small road next to it when the two sides were less than ten zhang apart, and then continued straight ahead without the slightest pause, bypassing the woman.

"No, don't!"

"Please! Save me!"

The only hope brushed past her, the woman chased the carriage, her cry was full of despair.

The group of bandits not far behind her were stunned for a moment, but they all looked up and laughed.

"I thought they were some heroes! It turns out they are just trash!"

"Hurry up and get out of here!"

"Hahahaha!"

"."

Rampant bandits, a desperate woman.

Amidst the pleas and ridicule, the black carriage still sped straight ahead, and soon completely disappeared at the end of the dirt road.

The woman gradually stopped and stopped chasing.

And the seven or eight bandits slowly surrounded her.

However, the ferocity on their faces had disappeared, replaced by endless fear.

"M-My lord, this..."

"."

The woman didn't speak, just looked at the dust raised in the distance, and narrowed her eyes slightly.

"Interesting."

"It seems I need to think of other ways."

"."

Objectively speaking, the woman's eyes are very beautiful, but none of the surrounding men dared to look up at this moment.

After they were silent for a long time, one of them finally mustered up the courage to ask tremblingly:

"M-My lord, we have already cursed very harshly..."

"I know, it's not your fault this time."

The woman shook her head and casually tied up her disheveled hair: "I thought of him too simply."

The man who asked the question was overjoyed: "My lord, can we leave then?"

"Of course, but if anyone asks about today's events, do you know how to answer?"

"I know, I know!"

The man quickly responded: "We will say that we have ravaged you and left your body in the wilderness!"

"Well, that's indeed the saying, but..."

The woman glanced at the man and chuckled: "But you shouldn't have said it."

"Ah! M-My lord, I..."

The man suddenly widened his eyes, and the words of begging for mercy only managed to say the word "I" before they stopped.

"."

Without any sound, the scarlet blood slowly dripped down his neck the next second.

The man was still standing, even with a horrified expression on his face.

Until a gust of wind blew past.

"Thump!"

"."

Looking at the corpse of their companion, the others stood in place with trembling legs, not even daring to breathe loudly.

The woman didn't care about this at all, only left a sentence "Dispose of the body" before turning around and walking away step by step.

Three hours later.

South of Shuzhou City, the Suspended Mirror Division's Yamen.

"Stop! Who goes there?"

"You Jia!"

The woman stopped outside the door was very lively, holding a small short sword in her arms, her eyes full of curiosity.

"I'm here to find my cousin!"
