Otherwise, this could escalate into a huge problem.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Don't! Do you not love your life? If young master Bai Zihan finds out, you can say goodbye to your life!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>…\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the face of Bai Zihan's antics, the servants and onlookers were powerless to do anything.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They didn't have the courage to call for help or stop the conflict, knowing that doing so would mean going against Bai Zihan—and no one wanted that.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yun Qingmei and Fei Ling exchanged glances.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They might have let it slide if it were just a personal insult, but Bai Zihan had crossed the line by insulting their sect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fei Ling finally spoke, her tone cold.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Senior Brother Shen, this is Bai Zihan—Bai Xueqing's younger brother. He has been openly insulting both us and the Heaven Sword Sect.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Liang's expression shifted slightly from anger to reluctant understanding.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had heard of Bai Zihan—the infamous troublemaker of the Bai Clan, known for his lack of talent yet abundance of arrogance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Realizing who stood before him, he took a deep breath and suppressed his fury.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He looked Bai Zihan up and down with a condescending gaze before speaking.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"So, you're Bai Xueqing's younger brother?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He continued.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"In consideration of my relationship with Junior Sister Xueqing, I'll let you off this time. However, I suggest you stop harassing female disciples of our Heaven Sword Sect.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His tone carried an air of superiority, as if he were showing mercy to a mere child.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, there was an implicit threat in his words.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan might not be talented in cultivation, but he wasn't stupid—he understood the underlying meaning.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Additionally, being threatened in his own territory? How could Bai Zihan let that slide?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Oh? So, you're one of those disciples, huh?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan chuckled, his tone dripping with mockery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"What do you mean?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Liang frowned, displeased that someone he considered a 'waste' dared to mock him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Chasing after my sister like a licking dog! Haha…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan burst into laughter after throwing his insult.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Liang's expression darkened instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan continued, acting as if he had just realized something.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Actually, now that I think about it… this is a perfect opportunity for you, isn't it? My dear sister just broke off her engagement. A disciple like you must be thrilled at the chance to take advantage of the situation.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Liang's jaw clenched.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Mind your words, Bai Zihan!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His voice carried unmistakable anger—like a child caught red-handed.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Why?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan spread his arms, feigning innocence.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm just stating the obvious. Maybe… maybe you even had a hand in persuading my sister to break her engagement and go against our ancestor's promise? That would explain a lot, wouldn't it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he knew it was probably untrue, he said it anyway to further provoke Shen Liang.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Haha… But do you truly think you have a chance? Who are you to even dream of being with my sister?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan added, wanting to humiliate Shen Liang further.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Elsewhere, who would dare to mock and underestimate Shen Liang?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He might not be as talented as Bai Xueqing, but he was still a top talent—respected by many and admired by his fellow disciples.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If any male disciple in the Heaven Sword Sect was considered worthy of Bai Xueqing, Shen Liang was one of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Yet here he was, being ridiculed by a so-called waste.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Liang's expression twisted in pure fury.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His aura surged violently, but he still had enough rationality to restrain himself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He knew that if he attacked Bai Zihan here, in the Bai Clan's territory, the consequences would be severe.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Moreover, even though his relationship with Bai Xueqing wasn't particularly close, attacking her younger brother would definitely leave a bad impression on her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instead, he took a deep breath and sneered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hmph! A dog who only dares to bark behind the safety of his family. No wonder Bai Xueqing never mentions you—you're just a disgrace to the Bai Clan!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The moment those words left Shen Liang's mouth, Bai Zihan's expression shifted slightly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>SLAP!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The slap was so fast and sudden that Shen Liang didn't even register it before his face snapped to the side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A deep red mark instantly formed on his cheek.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Silence!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Everyone in the courtyard—Bai Clan servants, Heaven Sword Sect disciples, and other onlookers—froze in utter shock.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan grinned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You were saying?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Liang's entire body tensed as his fury reached its peak.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"YOU—!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Without thinking, his hand shot to his sword, ready to strike.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But just as he was about to unsheath his blade—\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>BOOM!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A powerful force slammed into the ground between them, shaking the earth.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A towering figure stepped forward—Bai Zihan's personal guard.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His presence alone was like an immovable mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>His sharp gaze bore into Shen Liang, and his voice was calm but carried a chilling weight.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Please restrain yourself! Otherwise, I will be forced to take action.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Liang's fingers twitched on his sword hilt.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He was livid.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Every fiber of his being wanted to strike, to wipe that smug grin off Bai Zihan's face.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the rational part of his mind screamed at him—he was still in the Bai Clan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If he made a move now, he wouldn't just be fighting Bai Zihan but the entire Bai Clan itself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He had no choice.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With every ounce of restraint he had, he exhaled sharply and released his grip on his sword.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan laughed, shaking his head.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"See? This is the problem with you Heaven Sword Sect types. Always barking, always acting superior… but you can't do anything in the end.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He smirked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"You're nothing more than a licking dog. And I hope you remember that—especially while you're in my territory. Haha…\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Bai Clan servants shook their heads in pity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Even the esteemed geniuses of the Heaven Sword Sect had to suffer when dealing with their young master.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Shen Liang and the other disciples trembled with fury, but they were helpless.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They were merely at the Golden Core Stage, while Bai Zihan's personal bodyguard was at least in the Nascent Soul Realm.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And even if they somehow managed to defeat Bai Zihan's bodyguard, there were many other guards who would intervene before they could even lay a finger on Bai Zihan.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They stood no chance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This was a complete humiliation for Shen Liang and the Heaven Sword Sect disciples.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bai Zihan stretched lazily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Well, that was fun! Shen Liang, make sure to ice that cheek—you wouldn't want people to think Heaven Sword Sect disciples go around looking like they lost a fight to a mosquito.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With that, he turned and walked away, hands behind his head, as if this entire situation had been nothing more than an amusing little game.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The crowd parted for him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Behind him, Shen Liang stood frozen in place, his fists trembling in silent rage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"This isn't over,\" Shen Liang muttered.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Not by a long shot!\"\u003C\u002Fp>",1186,"2026-05-28T18:17:14.212Z","2026-06-01T04:28:34.960Z",1,"novelbin.me","dd7c105f3a236d52285a45990720c7e6cb028816e40d6d6455da440e36b7be98","turns-out-i-m-in-a-villain-clan-chapter-9","turns-out-i-m-in-a-villain-clan-chapter-7",580,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fturns-out-i-m-in-a-villain-clan-cover.jpg"]
