Forced Once Again, the Child of Fortune Roared in Fury

[The Child of Fortune has knelt, and his Dao heart has been humiliated. Heavenly Mandate Value decreased by 700. Master's Villain Value increased by 700.]

Hearing the notification, Di Juetian hadn't expected this Child of Fortune to be ruined so quickly.

How boring.

"Do you want your family to live?"

Di Juetian's voice was seductive.

Ye Chen raised his head.

Drip, drip.

Blood dripped from both his hands.

A flicker of demonic light appeared in his eyes.

The people of the Li Family watched Ye Chen, not daring to say a word.

When Ye Chen had first appeared, he had been brimming with arrogance and confidence.

Now he was as bedraggled as a stray dog.

"You don't want your family to die either, do you?"

"Don't you like Li Xi? Kill her, and I'll let you all leave."

Di Juetian spoke softly.

Hearing those words, Li Xi felt her scalp go numb.

Especially when Ye Chen's gaze happened to turn toward her.

Li Xi actually felt afraid.

She didn't know whether Ye Chen would kill her.

But Di Juetian's words made him seem like a stranger to her.

"Brother Juetian, are you joking with Xi'er? You dote on Xi'er so much."

"You couldn't bear to let Xi'er die, could you?"

Li Xi was like a canary in a gilded cage, born without a princess's fate but afflicted with princess syndrome.

With Di Juetian looking after her before, people had shown her respect wherever she went.

Now, hearing Di Juetian say he wanted her killed,

Li Xi was completely panicked.

Ye Chen calmed down and looked at Di Juetian's mocking expression.

Ye Chen knew perfectly well that this was Di Juetian's scheme, but there was nothing he could do.

He wasn't as strong as Di Juetian, and his Lineage wasn't as powerful. His own Lineage had been dragged into this because of him.

Now they had become hostages.

Ye Chen fell silent.

He hadn't expected Di Juetian, a member of the younger generation, to play so far outside the usual rules.

Weren't these pampered prodigies of the great Lineages the ones who cared most about face?

Why was Di Juetian different from those prodigies?

Di Juetian watched the struggle on Ye Chen's face.

If he were another villain, he might have agreed to Ye Chen's terms.

Then he would have served up experience and helped Ye Chen grow.

That would have been nothing more than the influence of Ye Chen's fortune halo.

But Di Juetian had a villain halo.

Ye Chen's fortune halo had no effect on him.

"It seems you don't like what I said, Young Master Ye Chen."

Di Juetian spoke softly.

Hearing those words, Ye Mu, who had long been ready, acted.

Ten more heads fell to the ground.

The Ye Family members didn't dare speak; there was only terror in their eyes.

"Divine Son, a few members of the Ye Family want to speak."

Ye Mu watched several members of the Ye Family stammer, trying to say something.

"Oh, go ahead."

Di Juetian had nothing better to do anyway.

"Ye Chen, what are you waiting for? Kill that woman! I'm still young, I don't want to die!"

"How many resources did the Lineage pay out for you before? You were always stirring up trouble."

"Are you going to stand there and watch your clansmen die now?"

"Shut up!"

Ye Chen suddenly roared.

"You want me to shut up?"

"It wasn't your relative who died, was it? It was my grandfather!"

"Ye Chen, you're an ungrateful wretch! And to think my grandfather said you were a true dragon of the nine heavens."

"You're just a bedbug from a filthy ditch."

"Pah!"

After saying that, the person bit his tongue and killed himself.

When he died, his eyes were wide open, staring at Ye Chen.

Before Di Juetian could speak, someone had already sealed the Ye Family members' meridians, leaving them unable even to kill themselves.

Ye Chen's expression darkened.

His face flushed, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

Then he kowtowed to Di Juetian.

"Please, spare my family."

Di Juetian smiled.

"The choice isn't mine. It's yours."

"Ten people every three breaths."

"There are still over a thousand people, enough to play for a while yet."

Di Juetian waved a hand and spoke indifferently.

Ye Chen turned his head and looked at Li Xi.

He fell silent.

"Di Juetian, today's affair started because of me. I was arrogant and offended you. Spare my family and Li Xi, and I'll kill myself. How about it?"

Ye Chen looked at Di Juetian and spoke calmly.

"Good resolve. I still prefer the way you looked when you were so pleased with yourself!"

"I won't agree to your request. If you dare kill yourself, your family will surely die, and their souls will be banished to suffer torment in the Netherworld for countless ages!"

"Di Juetian, what more do you want from me?"

"Di Juetian, you only took an interest in Li Xi because of her Nine Yin Saint Body, didn't you? She's a natural cultivation vessel."

"As long as you spare my family, I'll give Li Xi to you. From now on, I won't appear before you again."

Ye Chen clenched his hands tightly.

His voice trembled as he said those words.

Di Juetian, as long as I survive, I'll become a nightmare for you and your Di Lineage!

Ye Chen roared wildly in his heart.

Di Juetian smiled.

"Give her to me? How amusing. Do you really think I care?"

"She's just a pet I kept to pass the time when I was bored. You're the only one who treats her like a treasure!"

Li Xi felt as though thunder had exploded in her head.

I actually have a Nine Yin Saint Body. I'm a natural cultivation vessel.

The expressions of the Li Family members changed as well.

No wonder Di Juetian had taken an interest in a woman from a small family.

He had even wanted her to share his bed.

Everything made sense now.

But what did Di Juetian mean by saying that now?

So they were both after my constitution.

Li Xi wore a complicated expression.

At that moment, Li Xi felt such pain in her heart that she couldn't breathe.

They were both just using me.

But what did it matter now that she knew?

No one knew what she was thinking of as Li Xi looked at Di Juetian.

She showed him a smile captivating enough to bewitch anyone.

"Brother Juetian, I was wrong before. I've only just realized that you're still the one I like."

Hearing that, Di Juetian smiled.

"So I'm still the one you like."

Seeing Di Juetian's smile, Li Xi felt a little uneasy, but she nodded anyway.

"Then can you kill Ye Chen?"

Hearing that, Li Xi fell silent.

"Xi'er, don't listen to him."

"He's a hypocrite. He just wants to use your constitution. He must have some shameful secret."

"Otherwise, why would he give you so many resources?"

"He definitely wouldn't dare kill you!"

After hearing Ye Chen's explanation,

Di Juetian smiled.

"If a brat from who knows where knows about her constitution, how could I not know?"

"I knew, yet I never touched her, and you say I have a shameful secret."

"How ridiculous. If I had designs on her, do you think you would have been able to meet her?"

"Or that you'd still have the chance to bark wildly here?"

Ye Chen wanted to refute him, but he opened his mouth and didn't know what to say.

"You, on the other hand, have a Nine Yang Sacred Body. It's quite a match for the Nine Yin Saint Body."

Di Juetian made the remark casually.

Hearing that, suspicion appeared in Li Xi's eyes.

She came up to Ye Chen.

"Do you really like me or not?"

Hearing that, Ye Chen fell silent for a moment.

Like her or not? At first, he had valued this woman's constitution, but later, a figure had become fixed in his mind.

"Xi'er, I did intend to use you before, but now I have only love for you."

"Oh, so you love Li Xi."

"Then kill all of Ye Chen's family and let them be together."

Hearing those words, Di Juetian gave the order.

Ye Mu was about to act.

"No, no! I don't like her anymore. I'm just using her."

"Even when I saved her before, it was for her constitution, to win her favor."
