A system?
The sight rooted Lin Fan to the spot. A sharp gleam flashed in his eyes, and towering waves surged through his heart. System, you finally fucking came!
[The system may be late, but it will never fail to show up!] [This system is dedicated to helping the host sweep aside the sons of fortune and become an invincible villain.] [As an invincible villain, how can you tolerate others slandering you?!] [System mission issued: host, please make those who slandered you pay a devastating price, in a manner befitting a villain. The kind are bullied-a villain must stop at nothing!] [Upon completing the mission, the host will receive a beginner's gift pack: Chaos Gods and Devils Body, Immortal-Grade Nine-Turn Nirvana Pill, Chaos Scripture, and 100,000 villain points.]
Chaos Gods and Devils Body: close to the Great Dao, capable of smelting and refining all things in heaven and earth, and standing above countless physiques-the strongest supreme divine physique in the universe!
Immortal-Grade Nine-Turn Nirvana Pill: whoever swallowed it could undergo nirvana, reverse everything, reshape their foundation, and forge a supreme foundation.
Chaos Scripture: a supreme immortal scripture containing a thousand forbidden divine abilities, a cultivation method exclusive to the Chaos Gods and Devils Body, capable of taking one to the pinnacle of the Great Dao...
Kekeke!
At the mission issued by the system, Lin Fan first froze, then his lips curved into a smile exclusive to a great villain. Every last thing is good stuff!
"As the Holy Son and the Grand Elder's disciple, you defiled a fellow disciple-a heinous crime! Today, the sect has decided to execute you tomorrow as a warning to others! Do you have any last words?"
Before Lin Fan could speak, Elder Yan of the Law Enforcement Hall spoke again, his voice deafening as he pronounced Lin Fan guilty with the imposing authority of Lord Bao Qingtian.
"The Holy Son is so cold-blooded that he can still smile?"
"Elder Yan, there's no need to say anything more. Carry out the execution immediately in accordance with sect rules!"
The Holy Land's First Elder spoke in an aged voice, resting with his eyes closed like an old man, sitting high above them. Yet a single word from him decided whether Lin Fan lived or died.
With the Holy Lord missing and the Grand Elder in seclusion, he was the master of the Holy Land.
"Kill me? Are the likes of you worthy?"
"Do you know my true identity? Don't tell me you really thought this Holy Son was an orphan. I am the Imperial Son of the supreme imperial Lin Clan! Do I need to explain to you what I have or haven't done?"
Lin Fan straightened his back and sneered without fear. Naturally, he wasn't afraid of dying here.
As the Lin Clan's Imperial Son, he had a powerful personal protector who would intervene in a crisis.
What was more, his parents and ancestors had stuffed several imperial weapons into his hands. A mere little Holy Land couldn't do anything to him.
He hadn't acted earlier only because he wanted to see the true faces of the people of the Holy Land...
Unfortunately, their attitude chilled his heart. Even if he killed everyone present, he would no longer feel the slightest trace of guilt.
Lin Fan looked at Mengdie beside him, the corner of his mouth curling upward. "You're closest to me. I'll start with you!"
Mengdie's pupils contracted. "What are you doing..."
Before she could say anything more, Lin Fan unleashed his Spirit Sea Realm presence, killing intent soaring skyward as he drove a thunderous punch toward Mengdie's chest.
Bang!
Before Mengdie could react, his fist pierced her chest. Regret showed in her eyes as she fell heavily into a pool of blood.
She shouldn't have agreed to Senior Brother Luo Chen's request for those benefits. Otherwise, she wouldn't have died.
That felt good!
Having only just awakened his memories, Lin Fan was deeply influenced by those of his previous life. He still had something of his former life's penchant for reasoning.
But after experiencing what had just happened, he finally understood that using his previous life's approach here would leave him devoured without even a scrap of bone remaining.
The law of the Ancient Desolate World was that the bigger fist was the truth.
As long as your fist was big enough, you were qualified to set every rule.
As an invincible villain with an invincible background, did he need to care about these people's slander?
He ought to have a villain's resolve. Why waste his breath? He could simply kill them all. Who would care what dead people thought?!
No more pretending. Cards on the table! I am the Lin Clan's Imperial Son! Whoever dares slander me dies!!
[Ding! The host countered evil with violence, ruthless and sparing of words, instantly killing Mengdie. This conforms to villainous behavior. Awarded 1,000 villain points.]
"System, what are villain points used for?"
With a thought, Lin Fan asked what villain points were used for. A vast flood of information poured into his mind, and he quickly learned the system's functions.
[Ding! Villain points can improve cultivation, martial skills, cultivation methods, and more. The host must discover further functions independently.] [Ways to obtain villain points: primarily through behavior befitting a villain and through sons of fortune (daughters of fortune), including killing sons of fortune, humiliating them, seizing their opportunities, and other methods. Please explore further functions independently.]
After learning this, Lin Fan felt that the more villain points he had, the better. At the thought of soon receiving a hundred thousand villain points and so many rewards, wild joy filled his heart. If only the system would give him a son of fortune too!
The stench of blood filled the hall.
Inside the hall, the people of the Holy Land first fell silent, their eyes wide. No one had expected Lin Fan to suddenly kill someone in front of so many people.
"How dare you! Lin Fan, are you killing her to silence her? Elders, please seize this villain at once!"
Luo Chen's voice rang out, a sneer at his lips. He had been worrying about how to kill Lin Fan, only for Lin Fan to jump into the pit himself. It suited him perfectly!
[Ding! Legendary-tier son of fortune Luo Chen detected.] [Son of fortune's name: Luo Chen] [Identity: born with double pupils; illegitimate son of Quasi-Emperor Shenshang of the imperial Luo Clan; Great Emperor Tianchen reborn; currently a prospective Holy Son of the Primordial Holy Land.] [Realm: fourth level of the Spirit Sea Realm] [Life script: wanting to return to the Great Emperor Realm to take revenge, he needs more resources. He has set his sights on the resources attached to Lin Fan's position as Holy Son and wants to bring Lin Fan down.] [After the Grand Elder entered seclusion, he guessed that Lin Fan had no other background. He also accidentally discovered that Mengdie possessed the Supreme Yin Sacred Body, a top-tier human cauldron physique. Greed arose in his heart, and he devised a scheme: defile Mengdie, give her tremendous benefits, and join forces with the First Elder to frame Lin Fan. By killing Lin Fan and obtaining the position of Holy Son, he could gain Great Emperor Taichu's inheritance.]
Faced with so much information, Lin Fan froze on the spot. All he needed to know was that Luo Chen was a son of fortune. "Holy shit, system, you really did it? Whatever I want, I get! You're amazing, system!"
Only after seeing Luo Chen's panel did Lin Fan understand.
No wonder no one believed anything he said. He was the villain, while Luo Chen was the son of fortune, and Heaven was secretly helping the other side.
But now that he had the villain system, Luo Chen couldn't kick up even the slightest fuss. He was nothing but a plump little lamb delivering villain points to him.
He looked at Luo Chen like an old lecher seeing a gorgeous woman and let out a wicked chuckle.
Sensing Lin Fan's gaze, Luo Chen frowned, uncomfortable all over, as though something filthy had set its sights on him.
"How dare you, Lin Fan!"
"Not only did you rape your fellow disciple Mengdie, you've shown utter disregard for us and committed murder in public. Your audacity knows no bounds! Die!"
The Law Enforcement Hall elder roared. Mengdie had died right in front of him; it was a failure of his duty.
He thrust out his huge, withered hand and grabbed at Lin Fan, intending to kill him on the spot and salvage his authority. The might of the Saint Realm came rolling forth.
However, golden light emerged from Lin Fan's body and repelled the Law Enforcement Hall elder's huge hand, leaving everyone present dumbfounded. What was going on? A Saint couldn't kill Lin Fan?
"I told you, I am the Imperial Son of the supreme imperial Lin Clan, yet you still dare slander me? You're truly courting death!"
"And not only was I going to kill her, I'm going to wipe out the Primordial Holy Land too. Of everyone seated here, not a single person who slandered me will escape!"
Lin Fan wasn't surprised in the slightest. Facing the might of the Holy Land's elders and other experts, he had nothing to fear, secure in his backing.
"Useless! You can't even deal with a mere disciple!"
How could the First Elder believe Lin Fan's words? This bullshit about being the Lin Clan's Imperial Son and wiping out the Holy Land was, to him, nothing but Lin Fan's dying nonsense.
Who didn't know Lin Fan's origins?
He was an orphan the Grand Elder had brought back from his travels two and a half years ago, with no father, no mother, and no background whatsoever.
How could he possibly have anything to do with the supreme imperial Lin Clan now?
As for the golden light, he thought it was merely a lifesaving measure the Grand Elder had left Lin Fan!
Better not let a long night breed more dreams!
He immediately ordered the Fourth Elder, Fifth Elder, and the others to act, paving the way for his dear disciple...
As the First Elder's lackey, the Fifth Elder roared as he attacked, "Lin Fan has repeatedly flouted the sect rules. I don't care who you are! If I want to kill you, no one can stop me!"
But just then, a cold snort rang out. Sage King Realm pressure descended, blotting out the sky and sweeping across the entire Primordial Holy Land.
"Hmph! Let me see who dares touch my Lin Clan's Imperial Son. Are you courting death?!"
