Reborn As A Villainous Cannon Fodder-Chapter 302: Ch - We Are Truly in Love! II

"Pavilion Master, you probably don't want Yino to know that his most respected aunt has been involved in black market trading in Western Province City for years, do you?"

Jinyue's lips curved upward in undisguised mockery.

At this moment, Xinyao's heart sank.

She was furious and embarrassed, wanting to kick Jinyue hard, but when her anger reached her leg, Xinyao remembered all the little moments she and Yino had shared over the years.

Xinyao finally suppressed her anger.

Because she wasn't a crazy witch like Jinyue; she had her own life and career, as well as family she cherished.

Following the principle that the happy ones should yield, Xinyao would only lose more by cornering Jinyue, since no one could guess what was going on in a madwoman's mind.

"How did you know I'm his aunt..."

Xinyao released Jinyue and withdrew her killing intent. Even the golden phoenix markings on her legs faded back to dimness.

At the same time, the red foxgirl also concealed her blood-colored totems.

Since Xinyao was no longer choking her, Jinyue instinctively slid down the wall, sitting on the ground and leaning against it, lifting her face to look at Xinyao while panting.

"Ever since Yino came to the Wuji Sect, he's constantly talked about his aunt from the Grand Tutor's Mansion."

Jinyue touched her neck, speaking softly as if she had just survived a disaster.

Although she didn't think Xinyao had the ability to kill her, having just been kicked hard against the wall and then suspended by the throat with phoenix wings, Jinyue genuinely felt sore all over. The aftermath of the beating was lingering.

However...

She couldn't show her cowardice.

Jinyue still needed to continue lying to Xinyao. She certainly couldn't tell Xinyao that she had once infiltrated the Grand Tutor's Mansion and almost killed Yino.

"Really? What did he say about me?"

The phoenix spirit girl raised her eyebrow. Her previous anger temporarily subsided, seemingly intrigued by Jinyue's words.

"He said a lot. He said all his skills were taught by his aunt... including his physical conditioning and his incredibly skilled massage techniques..."

Recalling the memory from the Mountain Temple, though her abdomen was painfully swollen, Jinyue's eyes couldn't hide a sense of nostalgia and happiness.

Xinyao listened silently, her feelings mixed.

She was happy that Yino thought of her and often mentioned her at the Wuji Sect, but Xinyao felt jealous that the little pervert seemed to be using all the skills she taught him to seduce other girls!

"You mean he gave you a massage?"

Xinyao puffed up her cheeks, her face visibly pouty.

Her spirit phoenix mask had shattered earlier, so now Xinyao and Jinyue were face to face, each able to clearly observe the other's expressions. fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

Jinyue leaned against the wall, sighed deeply, and recalled the past, her almond eyes reflecting a sense of happiness:

"I spent half a year with Yino. He made me ecstatic with just his skills, and I completely fell for him~"

These words were actually spoken with contradictory intentions by Jinyue, mostly to lie and irritate Xinyao.

She used a genuine tone to express completely fabricated feelings.

Jinyue naturally liked Yino, but not for his skills in that regard. However, she couldn't tell others about her true relationship with Yino, so Jinyue simply chose a way of expression that matched her pleasure witch image.

As expected, upon hearing this, Xinyao was immediately provoked.

The girl's leg rose from under her slit red dress, but the white foot adorned with silver bells stopped inches from Jinyue's face.

"Go ahead and kick me"

Fierce wind and killing intent howled past, but Jinyue didn't even blink. She just stared at Xinyao with a mocking smile.

Xinyao clenched her hands, nearly grinding her back teeth, but still didn't dare to strike.

"If you have the courage, just kill me, then take my corpse to meet Yino. Tell him that because I'm a bad woman, you, as his aunt, kicked and disposed of me..."

Perhaps to overcome her inner fear, Jinyue spoke crazily.

From Xinyao's perspective, she didn't seem normal at all, just like the newly born crazy witch she had heard about in the Western Region seven years ago.

"You just said you don't care if Yino knows your identity."

Xinyao suppressed her jealousy and began to analyze the rhetoric in Jinyue's words.

She seemed to notice what Jinyue had been relying on all along—

Her relationship with Yino.

She seemed very confident in front of Xinyao.

And the source of this confidence was her trust in Yino. Her words were consistently threatening Xinyao: if Xinyao dared to kill me, Yino would certainly turn against you because of me.

To be honest, Xinyao didn't believe this.

How could years of emotional accumulation between her and Yino be destroyed by a fox temptress who had inserted herself halfway?

Moreover... Xinyao's current identity was the Pavilion Master of the Hundred Spirits Pavilion.

As long as she could disguise herself for life and never let Yino discover her true identity, even if Xinyao killed Jinyue today, at most it would be the Pavilion Master becoming enemies with Yino. What did that have to do with Yino's aunt?

However, while Xinyao thought this way, when she was actually facing Jinyue, she didn't dare to gamble even with a one percent chance.

She truly feared losing Yino.

Moreover... Although Xinyao had strong possessiveness, her heart wasn't that dark. If what Jinyue said was true, Xinyao naturally couldn't bear to kill a woman Yino cherished.

"So, are you saying that Yino already knows you're a witch, but has still been with you all this time?"

Summarizing her thoughts, Xinyao asked another question from her heart.

"I didn't expect our auntie to be so clever."

Jinyue chuckled.

Perhaps because she was inherently a fox demon, from Xinyao's perspective, the girl's enchanting almond eyes now carried a strange sense of familiarity even when looking at her.

"Don't try to get close to me! Who's your auntie?! Do you really think you've married into the my family?!"

Xinyao listened with a belly full of fire. As a phoenix, she already disliked dealing with cat or fox demons, let alone a natural charmer like Jinyue among fox demons!

But even so, the red foxgirl maintained her innocent, charming expression:

"Who knows, maybe one day Yino will marry me?"

"He would never marry a witch!" Xinyao said decisively.

"Yes, that's what I thought at first too."

Somehow, Jinyue suddenly lowered her tone considerably.

She was no longer so flippant, seemingly recalling certain memories. That sense of happiness that had made Xinyao jealous earlier emerged once again.

"Initially, I hid my identity, afraid to let Yino know I was a witch..."

"But later I discovered that Yino knew who I was all along. Even knowing I was a witch, he was still willing to fight alongside me in the secret realm, and he truly accepted my identity. He even risked his life to fight monsters in the Mountain Temple to save me..."

"So you see, Yino and I are truly in love! What difference would it make even if you told him I'm a witch?"
