I Am the Fated Villain – Chapter 117

Chapter 117: Just a few Petty Schemes; won’t Brother Bai have a drink?

Gu Changge stood by the window in a quiet and elegant courtyard, arms crossed with a smile on his face.

[Ding! the random side quest from The Favoured Son of Heaven has been completed, reward settlement is in progress.]

[Perfect evaluation, you have received 1000 points of Fortune Value and 5000 Destiny Points, 40% extra reward.]

[Final reward is being settled, you have received 1400 Fortune Value and 7000 Destiny Points.]

The system alert sounded in his mind. Everything was as Gu Changge had expected, and the relationship between the White Tiger clan’s Young Lord Bai Lie and Ye Ling had been severed, just as he had planned.

‘What’s the use of such a brotherly bond if it can’t even resist the temptation of beauty?’

Gu Changge looked somewhat intrigued.

“Brothers are like hands and feet, indispensable, and women are like garments, everchanging.” This saying is, of course, merely an expression, but how many people can genuinely follow it in reality?

Letting your brothers wear your garments?

Gu Changge simply laughed at it.

He had only exploited the flaws of the two, Ye Ling’s lustfulness and Bai Lie’s foolishness, using Yin Mei’s ability to sway both of them with just a few words.

She hadn’t actually done anything, Gu Changge merely used her as a medium to amplify the rift between Ye Ling and Bai Lie.

According to the system’s notification, the result was excellent, at least Yin Mei didn’t let him down.

Now, it was time for Gu Changge to strike.

It was time for Bai Lie’s last flames to burn out.

“I’m going out, wait for me in the courtyard.”

After saying that, Gu Changge gently smiled at Yue Mingkong in the courtyard, his white clothes were looking transcendent in the moonlight.

After saying that, he gently leapt onto the courtyard wall, like a stunning star, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

‘What is he doing over there?’

Yue Mingkong walked out of the courtyard with a frowning and puzzled expression.

She had followed Gu Changge all the way from the Heavenly Dao Immortal Palace, hoping to learn some of Gu Changge’s hidden methods and secrets.

But after Gu Changge had brought her here, he didn’t tell her anything about his plans, nor did he let her follow him.

After saying this, he disappeared in a flash.

This made Yue Mingkong a little angry, knowing that she couldn’t possibly follow after him.

Of course, she also knew that if Gu Changge truly didn’t want her to know his whereabouts, it would be impossible for her to track him with her current ability.

With Gu Changge’s strength, evading her pursuit would be far too easy.

‘Is he going to kill Ye Ling now? Is that why he won’t let me follow him? He’s going to have a feast for himself without leaving me so much as a crumb.’

Yue Mingkong gritted her teeth at that moment.

She was worried that Gu Changge would suffer at the hands of Ye Ling, so she used the investigation as an excuse to tell him what she knew about Ye Ling.

She thought that when the time comes, Gu Changge would consider giving her some benefits.

But now, Gu Changge simply ran away and told her to wait in the courtyard without moving.

This made Yue Mingkong’s teeth ache with hatred. Her good husband really wasn’t willing to leave anything for her, he was just too selfish and cold-hearted.

But she was also curious as to how Gu Changge planned to deal with Ye Ling and how he would put the Forbidden Demonic Art’s black pot on Ye Ling’s head.

Right now, Gu Changge was in the shadows and Ye Ling was in the light.

Perhaps Ye Ling didn’t even realise that he was already being targeted by Gu Changge.

At this point, Yue Mingkong suddenly felt that something was amiss.

‘As the Reincarnation Ancient Deity’s successor, Ye Ling has many tricks up his sleeves. If Gu Changge wants to kill him, then unless he reveals his own cards, it’ll be very difficult to do so now which means Ye Ling might escape…’

‘So Gu Changge is unlikely to go after Ye Ling right now, he will likely do it after Bai Lie has done his part.’

‘After all, with Gu Changge’s nature, Ye Ling still has a lot of use for him. Let him take the blame for a while, and during that time, Gu Changge can freely practise the Forbidden Demonic Art without being suspected…’

‘On the other hand, Ye Ling will take all the blame and become a scapegoat for everyone to yell at, making it difficult to even walk in the Upper Realm.’

Yue Mingkong figured out what Gu Changge was up to now.

In her last life, Gu Changge had secretly developed his strength not once, but twice.

This time, Ye Ling has taken the initiative to come to his door, Gu Changge would certainly not waste this chance. Instead, he’ll make sure to get the best out of it.

In other words, it was unlikely that Gu Changge would kill Ye Ling right now.

‘The more I know, the more risky it will become.’

Yue Mingkong frowned, because she couldn’t find a way to overcome the current predicament, and now the only option was to pretend to know nothing.

“Isn’t my brother Bai Lie a little petty and narrow-minded just because I said a few words to Yin Mei, Old Turtle? Look at his face; he looked as though I’d done something horrible.” Ye Ling said, with an unconcerned look.

When the old turtle within the pendant heard this, he rolled his eyes and said, “Your lustful nature is just like that Favoured Son of Heaven from back then.”

“It’s very natural for you to say such things. If you don’t stop, sooner or later you will suffer a great loss because of women.”

“Have you forgotten why you were almost killed last time?”

It was better if he didn’t say it, but as soon as he did, Ye Ling’s face became a bit pale.

That incident was a complete disgrace to him, and he even wasted a very precious life-saving jade talisman.

Although he still had many such jade talismans, having one less than before naturally made his heart ache.

“Old Turtle, let’s not talk about that, I’ll have my revenge on Yue Mingkong sooner or later, such a woman will have many tricks up her sleeve, it’s a shame she isn’t beside me.”

“But why is there so much fuss about Gu Changge, isn’t he just from an extraordinary family? What else is so remarkable about him that so many people are afraid of him?” Ye Ling disdainfully brushed his mouth.

He had not relied on his family’s background, but on the Inheritance of the Ancient Heavenly Emperor of Reincarnation, and he had gone from being weak to strong, killing his way to his current position.

Therefore, from the bottom of his heart, he looked down on Young Supremes like Gu Changge who had stood at the top since birth.

He had various means to kill them in the event that they met.

“Who is it?”

Ye Ling was alert in his heart and stared intently at the outside of the mansion.

The wind had stopped.

In the moonlight, he could only see a long white figure standing there, looking elegant and transcendent.

It was as if it didn’t exist in this world.

However that face was shrouded in an endless mist, a strange rune flowing from it, and the aura was powerful beyond measure.

Only a pair of deep cold eyes were staring at him, as if they hadn’t noticed him before.

Those eyes were staring at him as if they were sizing up his prey, giving Ye Ling shivers down his spine.

‘Who is this person? I never noticed him, so when was he there?’

In this instant, Ye Ling’s heart tensed up, a chill filled his back and his hands and feet went cold!

A feeling of unease suddenly gripped his heart!

His breath surged, and a black, mysterious rune with the aura of Samsara appeared, containing great destructive power. As he held it in his palm, he was ready to strike at any moment.

Ye Ling was extremely nervous. The person in front of him was definitely the most terrifying person he had ever seen.

It wasn’t the cultivation level, but the aura!

However, when the man in white just observed him from afar and did not attack, Ye Ling was stunned.

He merely let out a faint laugh as his figure gradually blurred and disappeared into thin air.

“heh…”

“We’ll meet again, little leek…”

As the man in white disappeared, Ye Ling’s brow furrowed, and even the Old Turtle within the pendant sensed that something was wrong.

The next moment, Ye Ling’s face changed drastically, “Not good!”

Buzz!

An old man in black suddenly appeared out of the void, holding a pitch-black sword in his hand, slashing straight down as if he wanted to tear everything apart!

“Who is this man? Why is he trying to kill me?”

Ye Ling’s face changed drastically, this old man in black was actually an existence at the God King realm, he was hiding his aura and appeared out of nowhere to kill him.

The black rune in his hand suddenly surged out with a terrifying aura, as if it could destroy everything and contained a supreme divine might! 

“Who are you?”

“Run! He’s most probably here to assassinate you, he probably doesn’t want to make too much noise…”

The Old Turtle within the pendant also hurriedly shouted to Ye Ling, telling him to run for his life, he couldn’t stay around for long.

When Ye Ling heard this, he instantly understood that this was a way to get himself out of here.

However, what puzzled him was that the mysterious old man in black behind him seemed to be quite wary of him as he didn’t actually use his God King Realm techniques.

Otherwise, it was absolutely impossible for him to have only this much power.

Ye Ling couldn’t figure it out at all, but he didn’t dare to stop and had no choice but to run for his life.

He did not want to use his precious life-saving methods just because of the existence of a God King realm, after all, using it on a mere God King Realm cultivator would be a waste.

“What exactly is the Young Master’s intention? He actually knew that I couldn’t kill this kid, so he told me not to push him too hard…”

The black-clothed old man chasing after Ye Ling was naturally Old Ming.

He frowned, unable to figure out why Gu Changge would give such an order.

Just now, he did feel a terrifying aura in the hands of the young man in front of him, an aura that could destroy him if it bursts out.

He noticed that it was a pitch-black rune.

For a moment, he did not dare to get too close.

Gu Changge’s original words were a request for him to go after the man, but not to push him too hard.

Although he was confused, Old Ming did as he was told.

It was beyond his ability to guess what Gu Changge was thinking.

….

On the other hand, while Bai Lie sent his protectors and the followers to capture Ye Ling, he proceeded straight to the secluded courtyard mentioned by Yin Mei.

There were two white jade lions by the entrance, looking very imposing and magnificent.

‘I’m sure Yin Mei is already waiting inside, right?’

A smile appeared on Bai Lie’s face as he felt Yin Mei’s aura from there and directly pushed the door open to enter.

The courtyard was quiet, and after crossing the corridor, he finally saw the candles that lit up the depths.

The moon was hazy, a clear spring was flowing, and the bamboo’s shadows swayed lightly.

A cup of warm wine was placed on the stone table, its fragrance wafting through the air.

A figure dressed in red sat beside it, cradling a glistening, snowy white, fluffy fox tail in her arms.

She held a seductive smile on her fair face as though she was waiting for someone.

‘Yin Mei is really waiting for me, and she even warmed up the wine for me.’

Bai Lie was overjoyed to see this scene and thought he had guessed correctly that Yun Mei’s words were giving him a hint.

“Yin Mei, I’m coming!”

Bai Lie said loudly as he strode towards the inner courtyard. 

Bamboo shadows dappled and rustled, coupled with the rumbling sound in his veins like Yin and Yang, causing him to feel a deep sense of thrill and excitement in his heart.

Upon hearing it, Yin Mei, who was sitting at the stone table, looked up at him with a strange look in her eyes. She replied with the same seductive look, “Looks like Master was right, you really came.

“Hmm, what do you mean by that, Yin Mei? Weren’t you waiting for me?”

“Master? What master?”

At this moment, the smile on Bai Lie’s face slightly fell, feeling that Yin Mei didn’t seem surprised by his arrival and there seemed to be a bit of indifference and mockery in her words that he didn’t understand.

He thought he had misheard Yin Mei’s words.

Master?

What master?

Who is so capable that his fiancée, Yin Mei, addresses him as Master?

“Master will come soon, you will see him then,” she said indifferently.

Hearing this, Yin Mei didn’t bother to keep up her charade in front of him anymore.

Her expression was no longer the gentle one Bai Lie had seen before, it was filled with annoyance and coldness.

“What?”

At this moment, Bai Lie froze, as if a bolt from the sky struck him, his whole body was stunned.

He couldn’t believe that Yin Mei, who was usually so gentle with him and even helped him see Ye Ling’s true colours, would suddenly change her appearance.

She was like a complete stranger to him! 

“Brother Bai, you thought correctly, Yin Mei was naturally waiting for you.”

At that moment, a voice with a faint smile resonated, and outside the inner courtyard, a white-clothed figure approached under the moonlight.

Seeing the visitor, Yin Mei’s face revealed a respectful and pleasing expression as she said, “Yin Mei greets Master!”

Gu Changge nodded and descended to the ground.

He casually picked up the white jade wine cup on the stone table and raised his hand to his mouth, “Hmm, not bad, I’ve come just in time, the wine hasn’t gotten cold yet.”

He finished it in one gulp and exclaimed, “Your skill at warming tea is getting better and better.”

“Thank you for the compliment Master.” Hearing these words Yin Mei immediately revealed a sweet smile and looked super happy.

“Brother Bai, why are you just standing there? Won’t you have a drink?”

Only then did Gu Changge look at Bai Lie, who was standing there frozen, and asked with a light smile.
