Transmigrated into a Book as the Villain, the Heroines' Characterizations Have All Changed - Part 7

This seemed to mean... it was fine.

Xu Chen asked the system, "System, this is fine too?"

The system nodded. "There has indeed been a deviation, but it is acceptable in this life. As long as the major plot of you and Ye Xuan entering the Academy together remains unchanged, it will be fine."

Xu Chen's mouth twitched slightly. This fucking worked too?

You should've said so sooner. You scared the hell out of me!

Since that was the case, he had nothing to be afraid of.

After being blasted away for so many lifetimes, he needed to show off this time.

Thus, he casually brushed off his clothes, looked down arrogantly at Xu Chen beneath the platform, and said coolly, "That's it, and you still dared to act arrogant?"

The moment he said that, Xu Chen felt incredibly refreshed.

It was fucking amazing!

It was as if the pent-up frustration of ninety-nine lifetimes had all scattered away at this moment.

Ye Xuan's expression turned ugly. "Damn it, you're actually at the Mid-stage Third Rank."

He had thought he was the only one who knew how to hide his strength.

Who would have thought that Xu Chen had concealed himself even more deeply? Damn it.

The surrounding crowd was also utterly shocked. They had never expected Xu Chen to be stronger, sending someone flying with one punch. Terrifying!

Elder Mingyou sighed inwardly in regret. Although Xu Chen was the strongest, Ye Xuan was no slouch either.

Both were sixteen years old, both were Third Rank, and both were peerless geniuses of Qingyang City!

He announced, "Although the two of you have determined victory and defeat, you are both rare geniuses. Both of you may enter Jixia Academy."

No one dared raise any objections.

After all, geniuses of this age were indeed exceedingly rare.

Li Ruoling clapped her hands, her face showing a playful expression. "Impressive, truly impressive."

Xu Chen looked at this utterly broken heroine and felt his teeth ache slightly.

He had now discovered that the heroine had not gotten together with Ye Xuan ahead of time.

This girl was genuinely fawning over him.

His head throbbed. The dignified number one heroine was fawning over him, a villain. It was simply absurd!

Perhaps because of her, even more absurd plot developments would appear next.

He had to stay far away from her. Once a villain got entangled with the number one heroine, nothing good would ever come of it.

Either people would hate him, or they would envy him. Absolutely, one hundred percent.

He only wanted to calmly finish the plot. Big sister, please do not cause trouble.

"Wow! The Saintess gave her Sun Spirit Storage Ring to Xu Chen! Did you see that?"

At some point, someone noticed the Ring of Holding on Xu Chen's hand. It was almost identical to the one on Li Ruoling's hand.

One was a Sun Spirit Storage Ring, while the other was a Yin Spirit Storage Ring. They were tokens of love.

The crowd cried out in alarm, their eyes then turning red. What had Xu Chen done to deserve such favor from the Saintess?

Ye Xuan clutched his chest, and the feeling of having something stolen from him became even stronger.

Damn it, he felt that Li Ruoling should have been his, and the Sun Spirit Storage Ring should have been his too. Damn Xu Chen.

Li Ruoling felt sweetness bloom in her heart, her face flushing shyly. He had kept wearing it. How wonderful.

Hearing this, Xu Chen stiffly glanced at Li Ruoling's Ring of Holding and was instantly dumbfounded.

Holy shit!

Once I enter Jixia Academy, trouble is definitely going to come in an endless stream!

I'm seriously speechless with this girl!

Big sister, go plague someone else. Stop staring at me all the time!

After all, I'm just a villain!

This fantasy plot was progressing quickly. Although the process was different, the result was about the same.

Ye Xuan's strength was still impressive, his talent in alchemy still shone brightly, and Elder Mingyou still valued him highly.

The greatest difference was Li Ruoling, this heroine.

No matter how hard he thought about it, he could not understand why Li Ruoling was so crazily helping him.

But he still remained somewhat wary, because she was the heroine!

A heroine could not possibly get together with a villain. He was well aware of his own place.

So perhaps someone was directing Li Ruoling from behind the scenes?

After thinking it over, Xu Chen came to another realization. "So that's how it is. I understand."

It was highly possible that it was the Palace Lord of Jixia Academy.

Perhaps this Palace Lord had some ulterior motive in making him suppress the protagonist.

Had she calculated the heavenly secrets?

Or was there some expert who wanted to seize the protagonist's fortune?

Both were possible!

In any case, he just needed to proceed carefully, not mess around, and finish the plot.

As for everything else, he would have to see how things went.

While he was thinking, the matches between the disciples of Qingyang City's other lineages had also concluded.

In the end, a total of nine geniuses were selected, every one of them at least at the Initial-stage Second Rank.

There was not much difference from the original plot.

"The next part of the plot is when news of Ye Xuan's Dual Cultivation of Alchemy and Martial Arts reaches Jixia Academy."

"Then the elders of Jixia Academy will crazily compete for Ye Xuan. Ye Xuan will keep showing off and shock the entire Academy, causing the Palace Lord to personally appear and take him as a disciple."

"That Palace Lord is also one of the heroines. Tsk, if you put yourself in Ye Xuan's shoes, this plot is incredibly satisfying."

"As for Xu Chen, he remains obscure and unnoticed, with no one competing for him, only rising to prominence later."

Thinking of this second major plot, Xu Chen nodded inwardly.

In this life, Ye Xuan still cultivated both alchemy and martial arts, stunning everyone present. Nothing wrong with that.

As for himself, he still could not refine pills and was slightly inferior.

Therefore, when they entered the Academy, Ye Xuan would definitely still be more popular.

Thinking this, Xu Chen said lazily, "This should count as a major plot too. There's no way it can be changed again."

He pondered for a long time before finally deciding that even if Li Ruoling tried to interfere, it would be useless. She could not change it.

After all, he genuinely could not refine pills. Even if Li Ruoling praised him to the high heavens, it would be useless.

Thinking of this, Xu Chen felt delighted.

This second plot could finally proceed more steadily.

Li Ruoling, you little bitch, don't even think about causing trouble this time, I'm telling you.

At this moment, Elder Mingyou continued, "The selected disciples will prepare to return to Jixia Academy tomorrow. I hope you will all make your preparations today."

"Yes!"

Xu Chen and the others answered in unison.

After saying this, the various lineages left one after another.

Li Ruoling and Elder Mingyou did the same, though Li Ruoling was extremely reluctant to leave Xu Chen before she went.

Xu Chen could not help but sigh. Her acting was truly invincible.

He returned to his family courtyard, rubbing his chin as he said, "Although this villain keeps losing, he also keeps growing stronger.

Ye Xuan's advancement speed is fucking as easy as drinking water, while in my previous lives, I had to pay a price.

But for now, it's fine. I don't need to pay any great price.

I can eat these free Human Spirit Pill and Mystic Spirit Pill."

After saying that, he directly swallowed the two pills.

In an instant, medicinal power surged forth, spreading through his entire body and flowing through his eight extraordinary meridians.

A faint golden light began to appear around Xu Chen, making him look like a god.

A vast and powerful aura also began to spread outward from his body like ripples.
