The next morning.
Jiang Che leaned against the sofa in the villa's living room, an inscrutable smile playing on his lips.
The various Emotion Points generated by Xiao Chen last night had practically flooded his system, leaving Jiang Che with quite a haul.
Combined with the ten thousand-plus Emotion Points he had farmed from Xiao Yi, he had accumulated a full hundred thousand—enough for a ten-pull.
Given how mentally shattered Xiao Chen was now, it probably would not be long before he obediently offered up the billion RMB with both hands.
Then Jiang Che could use Xiao Chen's money to finance Lanzi Group and seduce the woman Xiao Chen had his eye on. Wouldn't that be wonderful?
"System, give me a ten-pull!"
Suppressing the various wicked thoughts in his heart, Jiang Che focused his mind and issued the command to the system in his head.
"Ding, deducting 100,000 Emotion Points. Beginning draw..."
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining Shadow Guard ×10..."
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining Shadow Guard ×10..."
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining Child of Destiny Locator Card ×3..."
(Child of Destiny Locator Card: Can locate Children of Destiny whom the host has not yet encountered and receive the Related Plot.)
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining Cultivation Advancement Card ×1..."
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining Cultivation Advancement Card ×1..."
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining Bad Luck Talisman ×10..."
(By silently reciting someone's name, you can cause them to suffer continuous bad luck for three days.)
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining Hummingbird Robot ×10..."
(Hummingbird Robot: A technological product from a hundred years in the future. Three millimeters in size, it hides in darkness and moves without a sound. It can monitor in real time and transmit high-definition 4K, 360-frame footage. Its energy is replenished through sunlight and moonlight. Note: Martial artists below the Celestial Being realm cannot detect it.)
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining Crazy Pig ×100..."
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining Hundred Year Ice Mountain Snow Lotus ×10..."
"Congratulations to the host for obtaining Splatoon Meal Experience Card ×3..."
(Splatoon Meal Experience Card: Upon using this card, the user can transform into a Splatoon warrior, with feces and urine spraying uncontrollably in an endless, ceaseless stream for seven days. Note: Once this Experience Card takes effect, it cannot be stopped. Please use with caution.)
After examining the various rewards from this draw, Jiang Che's expression became somewhat strange.
Crazy Pig?
Splatoon Meal?
Damn it, why did this shitty system seem to be getting more and more heavy-handed?
But then again...
These things could be arranged for those Children of Destiny.
Whenever a Child of Destiny was showing off, he could directly give him a Splatoon Meal. Wouldn't the Emotion Points come pouring into his hands?
As for this Hummingbird Reconnaissance Robot, that was good stuff too!
He could send it to Xiao Chen, film those scenes, then upload them to the open web and the dark web.
If Xiao Chen's sworn enemies saw those videos, wouldn't they die laughing?
Over the years, Xiao Chen had run rampant in some small African country, bringing disaster to the region. He had made quite a few enemies.
When that time came, the name of the Wolf Fang Mercenary Group's commander would become famous throughout the world.
Oh, no, that was wrong. Former commander.
Jiang Che lowered his head and glanced at his phone. An article titled Wolf Fang Mercenary Group Wiped Out Overnight was displayed on the screen.
The corners of Jiang Che's lips curled up slightly. He only hoped that when Xiao Chen saw this report, his mental state would not suffer too severe a blow.
"System, use the Cultivation Advancement Cards for me."
Without further thought, Jiang Che continued issuing orders to the system.
"Ding, activating..."
As the system prompt faded, Jiang Che felt an enormous, pure energy suddenly appear in the area of his lower abdomen, his dantian.
It began flowing through his limbs, bones, and major acupoints throughout his body.
Cycle after cycle, it circulated repeatedly before finally converging once more in his lower dantian.
A warm and comfortable sensation swept through Jiang Che's entire body. He could not help narrowing his eyes slightly as he enjoyed the brief tranquility.
After a while, once the pure energy had completely fused with him, Jiang Che's cultivation broke through two realms in succession.
He went from the initial stage of Dark Strength directly to the late stage of Dark Strength.
"As expected, this kind of cultivation method suits me best!"
Feeling the tremendous power coursing through his body, Jiang Che sighed.
"System, open my Attribute Panel."
Host: Jiang Che Identity: Destined Great Villain, Linjiang's Number One Young Master Age: 21 Charm: 99 Cultivation: Late-stage Dark Strength Cultivation Techniques: Nine Yang Divine SkillTread Snow Without a Trace Skills: Fluent in 18 Languages, God-Tier Piano Skill, God-Tier Hacker Skill, Advanced Tea Ceremony, Advanced Investment Ability, Advanced Management Skills...

Personal Wealth: 13.66 billion Emotion Points: 1314
After examining his current Attribute Panel, Jiang Che smiled in satisfaction.
With a thought, he directly took two Hummingbird Reconnaissance Robots out of the system space.
He sent one to the Police Station to monitor Xiao Chen, while the other went to keep an eye on Lin Ming, the protagonist who was about to awaken his system.
After arranging everything, Jiang Che enjoyed the massage from the little maid's delicate hands behind him and waited quietly.
Jiang Che believed that, by noon at the latest, Xiao Chen would obediently offer up the one billion with both hands.
Once Xiao Chen's funds arrived, he could begin his plan to win over Leng Qingqiu.
"Xiao Hua, put a little more strength into it."
"Hehe, as you command, my dear Young Master~"
At the Police Station, in the solitary confinement room.
Because of his repeated fights, Xiao Chen had been placed here in solitary confinement.
Of course, this was only temporary. At night, he would still have to return to Cell No. 7 and face that inhuman torture all over again—only with a new batch of people.
At that moment, Xiao Chen leaned lifelessly against the wall. His eyes were vacant, his pupils unfocused, and his entire body had fallen into a prolonged stupor. Even his legs trembled without stop.
He wanted to squat down and rest for a while, but for certain reasons, he could not do so. He could only force himself to remain standing against the corner of the wall.
The miserable life of the past three days had dealt Xiao Chen an extremely severe blow. The former spark in his eyes had long since vanished.
At that moment, Xiao Chen was already considering compromising with Jiang Che.
Rather than return to Cell No. 7 again, Xiao Chen would rather hand one billion over to that damned bastard Jiang Che for nothing. His will to resist was no longer as firm as before.
Maybe I should just compromise?
After all, he still had three billion left in his overseas account.
Once it was all laundered through various channels, he would still receive 2.5 billion—more than enough to finance Leng Qingqiu's company.
Thinking of Leng Qingqiu, the hesitation in Xiao Chen's eyes gradually turned into resolve.
Lanzi Group had long reached the critical point where it was teetering on the brink of collapse.
If he remained trapped here and Jiang Che took advantage of the situation, then wouldn't he be completely doomed to lose any chance with Leng Qingqiu?
Absolutely not!
