Quick Transmigration: Saving The Crazy Villainess - Chapter 441

Mohan’s instinct which led him to instruct everyone not to kill Wang Yu Yan stemmed from the plot. In the original timeline, the latter was the one who indirectly informed him about the plan.

Unfortunately, this time around, the female lead was the one who captured Wang Yu Yan.

The villainess was careful but when the elite squad comprised of nobles were provoked, they dropped their wariness from being too deep into enemy territory and just retaliated with all they had. Nuwa had even eliminated almost a hundred soldiers guarding the command center of the south, further throwing everyone there in a mess.

When the operation ended, Mohan’s squad was divided. Contrary to what was planned, four of them managed to come out of the southern region. Mohan was one of them since he was the commander of the team imprisoned several days prior.

Nuwa and three others were left in the Southern region, still doing their best to split the forces going after their leader. When the battle ended, they convened in a secret gathering spot, a room in the bas.e.m.e.nt of one of the steel factories.

“Nuwa, are we really staying here to guard this lowly human?”

The one who asked was called Damos, the youngest among them, looking like a teenager. Like the others, he was busy catching his breath and was obviously not in good shape. A worried expression showed on his face as he studied the human thrown on the floor. He dared to raise the question now since Mohan was no longer around. “Nuwa, I don’t think this is good. What if Mohan and the others run into a situation where they need some backups? Do we truly have to keep this human alive?”

Another male fae frowned at the foul, iron-like smell coming from the girl. “Hey, vice-leader, you stunk of blood. How many did you kill?”

The female lead put on an indifferent face as she wiped away the blood from her dagger.

Just like what was mentioned earlier, Mohan, the scion of a ducal family who was also highly regarded by the Pontiff, was not on sight anymore. To Nuwa, it meant that no longer had to put on a careful expression.

As a female heroine from a Marquis family who knew how to fight, she was above several men in military rank. She was also one of the most talented within the family. Naturally, she had the capital to put on airs. She hid this arrogance before Mohan, but now, it was in full display, evident from her eyes and raised chin. The female lead was back to her real self.

She lifted her left brow at the male fae. “Andre. Since you know I am the one in command now, is there a need for me to answer you?” Apparent from her response that she didn’t like being questioned about her decision and action.

When Nuwa glanced at the unconscious Wang Yu Yan on the floor, she sneered. Then she looked at the youngest fae and said, “As for you, good that you raised this topic. I’ll leave a task for you. Make sure you made her fess up everything she knows. The person entrusted to us by His Holiness said this ant has a use, so we can only give him the benefit of the doubt and extract everything we could from this person.”

They nodded. The one she specifically called furrowed his brows. Yet he didn’t dare refute Nuwa so resigned to his fate, he strode towards the villainess. Disgust could be faintly seen in his eyes.

Meanwhile, the last person in the room finally spoke. “Tch. Such a pretty face sadly belonged to a bug. Will the method used matter? I can definitely help.”

“Up to you.” Nuwa plopped down on the floor. She closed her eyes and prepared to meditate to recover her strength.

Time passed. Wang Yu Yan was forcefully awakened but her willpower was strong so no one managed to make her speak up any confidential information. The physical torture did not make her flinch. She viewed the fae’s tactics with disdain. However, in actuality, the four fae race members were also casual about Wang Yu Yan’s attitude since they knew no pain would work on tough humans like her. They were only punching her from time to time to relieve stress.

“Heal her. Mohan won’t like it if he learns we did something to this ant when he’s not around.” Every time, Wang Yu Yan was covered with wounds and bruises, Nuwa would indifferently order this.

“If only Andre’s healing power is stronger, we could even try cutting off some fingers or limbs to add in our fun,” muttered by the fourth guy in annoyance.

“Last one,” Nuwa spoke again. This time, everyone realized what she meant by it. Last round of punching and stabbing.

The two men took this seriously. Wang Yu Yan gritted her teeth and did not let out a single sound, which made the fae admire her tenacity. But that was it. When Nuwa ordered a stop, this female lead stepped sheathed her dagger and stepped forward.

The villainess had long felt badly humiliated by their actions, so she glared at them. Her glare was particularly murderous towards Nuwa as she remembered that this demonic witch was the one who killed so many of her subordinates.

However, she was clear in her heart that she was powerless and at the mercy of the other now that her abilities were sealed and communication devices taken away.

“Tough, huh?” Nuwa stopped in front of the other woman, kneeling in one knee as flashed a grin at the pathetic-looking figure before her. “Didn’t you have fun toying with us for days?”

After tracing the smooth but swollen cheeks of the female human commander, Nuwa moved her fingers toward Wang Yu Yan’s forehead. The latter’s expression changed, predicting the physical violence was over and that the enemy was now planning to directly interfere with her thoughts or read her memories through magic.

‘Not good!’ Things had taken the worst turn for Wang Yu Yan.

Unfortunately, so what if she knew? The other elite faes were like iron chains as they made sure she wouldn’t be able to move.

A soft glow emitted from Nuwa’s fingertip. There was an amused smile on the beautiful face of the female lead. Even though it was a fake appearance, this woman did not accept anything ugly. However, no matter how beautiful the exterior was, it would not change the fact that the current expression on her face was malicious.

‘Now, what secrets does this ant hold?’ Expectations bloomed in Nuwa’s heart.

Yet a few moments after, her smile froze when the various protective measures was triggered by her attempt to read Wang Yu Yan’s mind.

“Nuwa?” called out Andre when the female lead suddenly trembled.

The woman tried to cast her spell again. But whether it was hypnosis, mind control, mind reading, brainwashing, nothing worked.

“How annoying.” Nuwa became annoyed and ordered the others to do the job. Yet none of them could breach the mental barriers.

They began to exclaim in shock. “Just how many have been cast on her?”

“We’ve really caught a big ant!”

“Yeah. I thought this woman is just a lucky border commander of a huge city. Now it seems this woman is someone fairly important to the entire human race.”

No backlash presented itself so the fae elites lowered their guards more.

Wang Yu Yan became relieved as she didn’t want to be labeled a traitor in the future in case the mind magic worked on her. Yet there was still a trace of worry in her eyes. Nothing could change the fact that she was in the hands of the enemy and that not being able to hypnotize her now didn’t mean they would not be able to do so in the future.

“Don’t be happy yet.” Nuwa snorted. The female fae was only concerned about the fact that she couldn’t do anything more to Wang Yu Yan.

The female lead’s expression was dark when she turned to her comrades. “None of you alerted anyone when you tried to break her mental defense, right?”

“We’re okay so, yeah. If we did, we would have felt some recoil by now.”

Nuwa nodded. Even she didn’t receive any counterattack when she tried to read Wang Yu Yan’s memories. This was why she relaxed her guard and sat down in a corner. However, it was really hard to erase the faint feeling of humiliation in her heart from the failure.

Nuwa ordered the others to take turns guarding the door while everyone else rests. No food was to be served to the prisoner, of course. ‘Wang Yu Yan’ was destined to starve and endure the pain from the wounds and injuries that were purposely left unhealed.

The captive could only satisfy her urge to kill everyone there in her imagination.

…

Several thousand miles in the South, Jiang Li suddenly opened his eyes. He was sitting cross-legged at the center of an ice lake when he felt that the spiritual awareness left in one of Wang Yu Yan’s mental barriers was touched by a foreigner’s magic power.

Suddenly, the man stood up wearing a frown.
