Hearing the magnificent voice in his mind.
Di Juetian was a little dumbfounded.
"System, say that again?"
Di Juetian began communicating in his mind with the voice from before.
[Master, the Heavenly Fate Villain System is awakening.]
"I'm not a Child of Fortune?"
[Sorry, Master, your personality isn't suited to being a Child of Fortune. Besides, how could being a Child of Fortune compare to being a villain?]
"So the young man in front of me is the Child of Fortune?"
[That's right. The man in front of you is the Child of Fortune, and the young woman is a heroine of fortune.]
Hearing that, Di Juetian was speechless.
He had thought he was a son of fortune who could tread upon the heavens. Now look at him—he had become a cannon-fodder villain.
"A villain it is, then."
Di Juetian thought about his status and foundations.
He realized that being a villain really did suit him.
"System, tell me what you do."
[The Heavenly Fate Villain System is dedicated to helping the host become a successful villain.]
[Why should sons of fortune encounter opportunities as soon as they step outside? They're the darlings of the Heavenly Dao.]
[We villains are stepping stones. Why should foundations built up over countless years be so easily destroyed? So we must shatter it all, seize the fortune of the sons of fortune, and finally eliminate them.]
[After Master seizes a Child of Fortune's opportunities, Master can seize his Heavenly Mandate Value and obtain Villain Value.]
[Villain Value can increase your strength, or be used in the system shop to purchase cultivation techniques, weapons, and all manner of things from the myriad heavens and worlds.]
[However, Master must kill a Child of Fortune to unlock the system shop.]
[The rule for killing a Child of Fortune is that his Heavenly Mandate Value must be reduced to zero.]
[But we villains can't be left without any room to maneuver.]
[A Child of Fortune's women and heroines of fortune can be killed by Master without any conditions.]
[Master now has a newbie gift pack. Open it?]
When Di Juetian heard that, a light appeared in his eyes.
It vanished in a flash.
"Open the newbie gift pack."
[Newbie gift pack opened.]
[Congratulations, Master, on obtaining the Chaos Demon Scripture.]
[One Fifth Stage of Divine Ability realm card.]
[Divine ability: Heaven-Cutting Seal.]
[Divine physique: Spatial Divine Eye.]
[Ten thousand Villain Value.]
[Heavenly-Fated Villain Halo: can ward off the Great Dao's probing.]
Di Juetian's heart stirred when he heard the system's notifications.
"Not bad. Pretty lavish."
[Master's panel is being generated.]
Master: Di Juetian Identity: divine son of the Di Lineage of the Immortal Domain Physique: Chaos Devil Physique, Spatial Divine Eye, Heavenly-Fated Villain Halo Strength: Fifth Stage of Divine Ability Cultivation techniques: Chaos Demon Scripture, Heavenly Emperor Scripture, Emperor God Palm, Free and Easy Wandering, Heaven-Slaying Sword Art, Human King Seal... Divine ability: Heaven-Cutting Seal Villain Value: 10,000 Inventory: none
Just as Di Juetian's panel was generated, a terrifying transformation had already taken place inside his body.
But with the help of the Heavenly-Fated Villain Halo, none of it leaked out.
Unless Di Juetian exposed it himself.
Looking at the Chaos Devil Physique, Di Juetian fell silent.
No wonder his predecessor, Di Juetian, had cultivated Li Xi as a fruit.
It was to suppress his own Demon Body.
There were quite a few devil physiques in the Immortal Domain: the Three-Life Demon Body, the Gods and Devils Body, and the Heavenly Demon Body. All these physiques bore the word "demon" or "devil."
But only one physique, the Chaos Devil Physique, was taboo in the Immortal Domain.
As Di Juetian recalled, the Chaos Devil Physique had not appeared for a million years.
The last time the Chaos Devil Physique appeared, more than a hundred Great Emperors had fallen across the Immortal Domain.
"That era was also called Emperor-Fall Day."
The Chaos Devil Physique had also become taboo.
The main reason was fear.
All of this came from his memories.
When Di Juetian arrived at the Li Family, he had only been at the peak of the Void Hollow Realm.
Now he had already reached the Fifth Stage of Divine Ability.
The previous Di Juetian had always been suppressing the devil Qi inside his body, with no better way to control it.
So over the years, Di Juetian had always been somewhat bloodthirsty.
It was just that outsiders didn't know.
Seeing Di Juetian ignore him, Ye Chen was a little annoyed. Di Juetian's status was noble, that much was true, but his own status wasn't low now either.
Besides, he was different from these pampered prodigies. He had fought and killed his way here.
How many hardships had he endured to get from a small place to becoming a prodigy of Tianyang Domain?
Did they know how he had spent these past years?
He recalled meeting Li Xi during a previous training expedition. She had been like a fairy descended from the heavens.
The moment Ye Chen first saw her, he had a feeling: this woman was his, and no one could take her away. That was his intuition.
He hadn't expected to meet her again during another training expedition.
She had been in danger.
When she was in the greatest danger, Ye Chen had saved her.
After spending more than half a month together, the two had become a couple!
When he learned that this woman had previously been raised by Di Juetian, he grew even more excited. He didn't know why he felt that way, either!
Di Juetian actually ignored him.
Even Ye Chen's good composure began to slip.
"I know Xi'er is beautiful, like a fairy in the heavens. Prodigies from great families like you would like her when you saw her too."
"But sometimes, you have to know your own place. You're all prodigies from great families. Surely you wouldn't force people as weak as us, would you?"
"Besides, if you love her, you should let her have what she wants!"
"If you really love her, you should let her go and pursue her happiness. As long as she's happy, even seeing her from afar would make you happy too, wouldn't it?"
After saying that, Ye Chen cast a provocative glance at Di Juetian, then looked at Li Xi!
Li Xi looked at Ye Chen, her eyes filled with happiness and emotion!
She hadn't expected Brother Ye Chen to confront Di Juetian so directly for her sake!
Di Juetian still said nothing, seemingly not even glancing their way.
Ye Chen was angry.
After all, he was a Child of Fortune who had fought and killed his way here. In the past, he had killed people at the slightest disagreement, but this young man's status made him somewhat wary.
Of course, it was only the power behind him.
Ye Chen believed his strength was no weaker than that of any young prodigy.
Given a little more time, Ye Chen was confident he could catch a glimpse of the Great Emperor Realm.
"Insolence! Where did this wet-behind-the-ears brat come from? Kneel, apologize, and kill yourself!"
Li Xi's father looked at Ye Chen and shouted at him.
Li Xi couldn't help but pale as she looked at her father.
Because when her father looked at her now, there was actually killing intent in his eyes.
That had never happened before. Whenever her father looked at her in the past, he had always been pleasant, and often even took her opinions into consideration.
"Little sister, are you sure you want to do this? Are you going to betray the family?"
Li Mu looked at Li Xi and asked.
In truth, he was a little delighted. After all, the family had always revolved around Li Xi before. Now that Li Xi didn't know what was good for her, wasn't his chance here?
If I win Di Juetian's favor, won't I rise to glory and wealth? That's so much better than being the young master of a family.
"What I do is none of your business. You'd better look after yourself."
Seeing Li Mu drop stones on someone who had fallen into a well as well, Li Xi snapped right back at him.
In her eyes, her elder brother was nothing but trash.
"Fine, just fine! It looks like you really don't take the family seriously anymore."
"Don't you like him?"
"Then I'll kill him first."
As soon as Li Mu said that, a powerful presence erupted from him, and green light began to envelop his body.
"First Stage of Void Insight? You broke through?"
A trace of surprise flashed in Li Xi's eyes, though it was only a momentary surprise. After all, she had broken through half a year ago.
