Villainess Breaker: Raising Broken Beauties Against Destiny

Damian was just about to pay for the two martial arts when he suddenly paused and looked to the side.

At the very corner of one of the shelves, there was a single old jade slip sitting there all by itself, looking strangely neglected.

But what truly caught his attention was its description.

---

[Thousand Illusion Sound Art]

[Top-Rank Profound Grade]

---

The rank of this art was quite high, making him walk closer so he could inspect it further.

But when he got there, he was even more surprised after seeing the price, as it was merely priced at five hundred Low-Rank Spirit Stones.

It was far too cheap for a martial art of this rank, and he couldn’t help but feel that something was wrong.

The attendant quickly noticed his reaction and smiled awkwardly. "Fellow cultivator, are you interested in this martial art?"

Damian looked at him directly and nodded. "Yeah, but not because of its power. I’m interested because of its price. Why the hell is this so cheap despite being top-rank?"

The attendant only coughed before explaining helplessly. "Because this sound martial art is extremely difficult to cultivate."

Damian was surprised upon hearing that. So the harder it was to cultivate, the cheaper it became?

The attendant then continued, "Not only is it difficult to learn, but if the cultivator isn’t careful, it can backfire and injure the cultivator instead."

He shook his head afterward. "Over the years, many cultivators have tried learning it, but most either failed or injured themselves. That’s the reason for its cheap price."

Damian immediately thought about Violetta.

She was, after all, a genius and quite a beauty. And with her former courtesan background, she should be able to cultivate this, right?

Not to mention, this was a top-rank profound-grade martial art. If it was given to her, just how great would the return be?

Thinking about it already made him so happy that the thought of losing money was quickly forgotten.

Damian directly took the jade slip and gave it to the attendant. "I’m buying this too."

The attendant’s smile immediately widened greatly. "Of course, fellow cultivator!"

The martial arts that Damian purchased came to a total of two thousand and five hundred Low-Rank Spirit Stones.

Even for Foundation Establishment cultivators, this was a huge purchase, so the attendant couldn’t help but grin widely because of how big his commission would be.

Meanwhile, Damian himself silently sighed. Still, he was so happy that just thinking about the return he would get after gifting all of this to Violetta already made him excited.

Damian finally returned to his residence after spending nearly an entire week outside.

The moment he entered the familiar courtyard, he immediately felt more relaxed and safe.

Recently, he had spent far too much time either inside the dangerous Black Mist Forest or wandering through crowded markets.

Compared to those places, his residence felt much quieter and safer.

Damian soon sensed a familiar aura, and as he turned slightly, he saw Violetta currently cultivating under the same tree in the garden.

At the same time, the familiar blue screen immediately appeared before him.

---

[Name: Violetta]

[Spiritual Root: Mortal Grade Neutral Root]

[Physique: Mortal Body]

[Bloodline: Human]

[Cultivation: Fourth Stage Qi Refining Realm]

[Comprehension: Genius]

[Multiplier: 50×]

---

The moment Damian saw her cultivation level, even he became slightly shocked.

It had only been around a week since he left the residence, and during that period, Violetta had already broken through into the mid-stage Qi Refining Realm.

Damian could only sigh inwardly. "As expected of a true genius. Even with a Mortal Root, she can still rise."

It seemed that he had really underestimated the importance of comprehension talent.

Meanwhile, Violetta herself also noticed that her master had just returned home.

She quickly stopped her cultivation and walked toward him while bowing down. "Master, you’re back."

Damian only smiled. "Yeah, I’m back. And it seems you’ve broken through again to the mid-stage Qi Refining Realm."

Violetta lowered her head slightly afterward. "It’s only because Master gave me good resources and techniques."

Damian just sighed. "No, it’s not that. It’s because you’re a genius, so don’t you dare lower yourself."

Violetta became slightly embarrassed after hearing that and quietly lowered her gaze again.

Soon afterward, Damian casually walked past her and entered the residence building.

Meanwhile, Violetta silently watched his back for several moments before going to the kitchen to get some food and drinks.

Not long afterward, she returned while carrying a simple tray containing tea and several warm dishes.

She then carefully placed the food onto the table in front of Damian. "Master, you just returned from outside, so please eat something first."

Damian looked at the food for a while and smiled. "Thanks for the food, my dear disciple."

Violetta quietly nodded before standing respectfully nearby while Damian began to eat the food and drink the tea she had prepared.

They tasted okay, but after spending days inside the dangerous Black Mist Forest, surrounded by blood, killing, and constant danger, this simple peaceful atmosphere felt really good.

Damian leaned back slightly while letting out a long sigh. "This kind of life honestly isn’t bad at all..."

Compared to the madness inside the Black Mist Forest, this residence now felt almost peaceful enough to make him forget how dangerous the cultivation world truly was.

Meanwhile, Violetta quietly looked toward Damian before asking, "Was the Black Mist Forest dangerous this time too, Master?"

Damian immediately laughed bitterly afterward. "Dangerous? That place is basically a giant battlefield now."

Just remembering the possible Golden Core cultivator alone made his body shake in fear.

Violetta frowned after hearing that, but Damian still waved his hand casually. "Don’t worry. Your master is stronger than you think."

Violetta could only smile helplessly afterward.

Then, after making sure Damian no longer needed anything, she quietly returned to the garden to continue cultivating.

Meanwhile, Damian himself remained sitting alone while drinking tea slowly, thinking about what he needed to do next.
