VILLAIN: MANIPULATING THE HEROINES INTO HATING THE PROTAGONIST - Chapter 510: Making His Move On Zhi Xi

Amidst the twinkling stars of the Heavenly Jade Pavilion’s Starry Expanse, the elders of the sect gathered for a momentous meeting convened by the Third Elder and Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan. The atmosphere buzzed with anticipation as the elders took their seats, their expressions a mixture of curiosity and intrigue.

Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan stood at the forefront, her presence commanding the attention of all those present. “Esteemed elders,” she began, her voice carrying the weight of authority, “we have convened here today to discuss a matter of great importance.”

The Third Elder stepped forward, her gaze sweeping over the assembled elders. “As you are all aware,” she continued, “we have been presented with a unique opportunity to welcome a new member into our ranks. This individual possesses unparalleled talent in the arts of array formations and alchemy.”

A murmur of interest rippled through the assembly as the elders exchanged curious glances, eager to learn more about the mysterious newcomer.

Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan nodded in agreement. “Indeed,” she affirmed. “The individual in question, Wang Jian, has demonstrated exceptional skill and insight in both disciplines. His presence would undoubtedly enrich our sect and elevate our standing among the celestial realms.”

The Third Elder chimed in, her voice resolute. “We believe that Wang Jian’s talent is such that he warrants an exception to our rules regarding the admission of men into our sect. Allowing him to join us would be a boon to our sect’s future.”

With the stage set, the elders were given the opportunity to voice their opinions and cast their votes. One by one, they expressed their support for Wang Jian’s inclusion, citing his extraordinary abilities and the potential benefits he would bring to the Heavenly Jade Pavilion.

And when the final tally was taken, the results were nothing short of astonishing. Out of the eighty elders present, a staggering seventy voted in favor of admitting Wang Jian into the sect, a near-unanimous majority that spoke volumes of his exceptional talent and the widespread support he had garnered.

Meanwhile, amidst the bustling activity of the elder’s council, Wang Jian sought out Zhi Xi, eager to share the news of the meeting’s outcome. As they met, Zhi Xi’s eyes sparkled with excitement, her smile radiant with joy.

“Wang Jian!” she exclaimed, her voice filled with enthusiasm. “I heard the news! You’ve been approved to join the sect!”

Wang Jian returned her smile, his expression one of quiet satisfaction. “Yes, it seems the elders have been quite generous in their support,” he replied modestly. “I owe a great deal to Pavilion Mistress Cui Lan and the Third Elder for their advocacy.”

Zhi Xi nodded eagerly, her excitement palpable. “Indeed, it’s a remarkable achievement,” she agreed. “I’m thrilled to have you officially join us in the Heavenly Jade Pavilion.”

As they conversed, Zhi Xi’s expression grew thoughtful, a hint of concern flickering in her eyes. “By the way, Wang Jian,” she began tentatively, “I heard that Chu Yang has left the Starry Expanse. He mentioned something about gathering heavenly resources to enhance his abilities.”

Wang Jian’s brow furrowed slightly at the mention of Chu Yang’s departure. “I see,” he murmured, his thoughts turning inward. “It seems he is determined to pursue his own path.”

Zhi Xi nodded in agreement, her gaze lingering on Wang Jian with a mixture of admiration and concern. “Just be careful, Wang Jian,” she urged softly. “Chu Yang’s ambitions are lofty, and he won’t hesitate to do whatever it takes to achieve them.”

Wang Jian offered her a reassuring smile, his resolve unwavering. “Thank you, Zhi Xi,” he said sincerely. “I’ll keep that in mind. But for now, let’s focus on the future and the opportunities that lie ahead.”

As Wang Jian mentioned looking forward to the opportunities ahead, Zhi Xi’s expression turned slightly puzzled, her brows furrowing in confusion. “Opportunities?” she echoed, her tone laced with uncertainty. “What do you mean by that?”

Wang Jian’s lips curled into a mischievous smile at her puzzled expression. Without a word, he closed the distance between them, his arms encircling her waist as he pulled her into a tender embrace. Leaning in, he captured her lips in a passionate kiss, his desire evident in the fervor of his touch.

As their lips parted, Wang Jian’s voice was a low whisper against her ear, filled with playful mischief. “I mean the opportunity to explore,” he murmured, his breath hot against her skin. “To indulge in desires we’ve kept hidden for far too long.”

Zhi Xi’s cheeks flushed crimson at his words, her heart racing with a mixture of excitement and nervousness. She shook her head in disbelief, unable to fully comprehend the audacity of his suggestion. “W-Wang Jian,” she stammered, her voice barely above a whisper. “You can’t be serious…”

But as she looked up into his eyes, she saw the intensity of his gaze, the sincerity in his expression. There was no mistaking his intent, no doubting the hunger in his eyes. And in that moment, she understood that he was indeed serious.

Wang Jian’s lips curved into a soft smile as he spoke, his voice gentle yet determined. “Zhi Xi,” he said softly, his gaze unwavering. “I want you. I’ve wanted you from the moment I laid eyes on you. And now, I want to make love to you.”

Zhi Xi’s breath caught in her throat at his bold declaration, her pulse quickening with a mixture of excitement and apprehension. She knew that what he was suggesting was risky, forbidden even, but the allure of his touch, the fire in his eyes, was too tempting to resist.

With a shy nod, she acquiesced to his desires, her cheeks flushed with embarrassment as she allowed him to lead her to his chamber. As they entered the room, her heart pounded with anticipation, her body trembling with nervous excitement.

Wang Jian gently lowered her onto the plush bed, his touch sending shivers of pleasure coursing through her veins. With tender caresses, he began to undress her, his fingers tracing the curves of her body with gentle reverence.

As their bodies entwined, a symphony of passion and desire filled the air, their hearts beating as one in the throes of ecstasy. With each touch, each kiss, they lost themselves in the intoxicating bliss of their union, their souls merging in a dance of love and longing.

And as the morning stretched on, their passion burned bright, igniting a flame that would never be extinguished.

As the evening sun cast its warm glow upon the room, Wang Jian lay beside Zhi Xi, her seductive form nestled in the crook of his muscular arms. The air was filled with a sense of contentment, their bodies still tingling from the passionate embrace they had shared throughout the day.

Zhi Xi gazed up at Wang Jian with a playful glint in her eyes, her lips curved into a teasing smile. “So,” she began, her voice laced with curiosity. “Have you ever been with Lin Xingya and Shui Xueying?”

Wang Jian’s expression remained calm and composed, his gaze meeting hers with unwavering confidence. He knew that this question was inevitable, and he was prepared to handle it with finesse. With a soft chuckle, he nodded in affirmation. “Yes,” he admitted quietly. “I have been with them.”

Zhi Xi’s smile faltered slightly at his admission, a hint of sadness flickering in her eyes. She had expected as much, but hearing the truth still stung. However, before she could dwell on her emotions, Wang Jian’s next words caught her off guard.

“But,” he added, his voice low and intimate, “the experience with you, Zhi Xi, is incomparable. It feels… different, special.”

Zhi Xi’s heart skipped a beat at his words, her cheeks flushing with warmth at his praise. She knew that Wang Jian’s words might be a bit of a flattery, but she couldn’t help but feel a surge of happiness at his declaration. Despite the lingering doubts in her mind, she couldn’t deny the sweetness of his words.

With a soft sigh, she snuggled closer to him, her body molded against his in perfect harmony. “You know how to charm a woman, Wang Jian,” she teased, a playful glint dancing in her eyes. “But I won’t let you off that easily.”

Wang Jian chuckled softly, his arms tightening around her in a protective embrace. “I wouldn’t have it any other way,” he replied, his voice filled with warmth and affection. “I’m here for you, Zhi Xi, now and always.”

As the evening unfolded into a tranquil embrace, Wang Jian lay beside Zhi Xi, his mind abuzz with thoughts of their passionate morning together. His body still tingled with the remnants of their intimacy, but amidst the lingering sensations, a mischievous idea began to take shape in his mind.

‘Zhi Xi is just the beginning,’ he mused to himself, a devious smirk playing at the corners of his lips. ‘There are plenty of other influential members of the Heavenly Jade Pavilion to charm.’

With a sly grin, he imagined the thrill of seducing the other core disciples, each one falling under his spell one by one. It was a risky game, but Wang Jian was confident in his abilities to navigate the delicate web of relationships within the sect.

‘Of course, I’ll have to be subtle,’ he thought, his mind already formulating a plan of action. ‘I can’t afford to draw too much attention to myself, especially not from the elders.’

But even as he plotted his next move, a sense of excitement surged through him. The prospect of conquering more women filled him with a rush of adrenaline, igniting a fire within him that refused to be extinguished.

With a contented sigh, Wang Jian closed his eyes, his thoughts consumed by visions of future conquests and the thrill of the chase.
