Chapter 321: Chapter 321
Lin Xiao's expression was solemn. Yes. With his Insight Skill at maximum, he sensed an overwhelmingly terrifying killing intent in Lu Yingying's eyes!
In fact, he had noticed something was wrong a long time ago!
Since last month, this girl's personality had suddenly become cold and aloof, full of hostility towards everything!
Only when she faced him would she revert to being that cute and fragile little girl!
Her personality profile... it seems it hasn't just deviated from its original path; it's gone completely off the rails.
That's the look of someone who wants to destroy the world!
Lin Xiao took a deep breath and walked over.
The handsome and towering Eldest Senior Brother faced the petite and frail junior martial sister. The two of them formed a stark visual contrast.
"Eldest Senior Brother..."
Upon seeing the god-like man before her, dressed in snow-white robes, the coldness in the girl's pupils instantly melted, as if reflecting a galaxy of stars!
"Mm, as long as you're alright..."
The girl lowered her head; her small, oval face flushed faintly.
Then, she subconsciously glanced behind her.
Lin Xiao understood instantly.
Just as I thought. This girl really did bring a group of monster beasts to wreck the place!
According to her, she's here to... save me?
This plot development is beyond absurd.
Lin Xiao smiled bitterly in his heart.
"Yingying, what are you trying to do?" Lin Xiao asked tentatively.
"I want…" Lu Yingying seemed somewhat nervous. She clenched her small fists and spoke in a voice as faint as a mosquito's buzz, "I want to take Eldest Senior Brother away, to be with Eldest Senior Brother forever..."
Upon suddenly hearing the girl's confession, even Lin Xiao, now a major villain, felt his mature face flush.
Although age doesn't matter much in the world of cultivation...
But adding his two lives together, he was almost damn forty years old!
And she's just a girl of fourteen or fifteen!
How is this even acceptable!? This is practically criminal!
Lin Xiao had roughly three theories about the change in Lu Yingying's personality.
First, she must have misunderstood something or heard some rumor that made her suddenly so attached to him.
Second, Lu Yingying's soul had been possessed.
Third, and this was something he'd suspected all along: the original author, after cashing in on the initial success, had probably hired a ghostwriter who then completely butchered the later parts of the story, creating inconsistencies in the timeline and character personalities!
In any case, regardless of which it was...
The only thing he had to do now was one thing!
Lin Xiao took a step forward, coming to stand before his junior martial sister.
At this moment, he could even hear the girl's racing heartbeat!
"Eldest Senior Brother, actually I..."
Lu Yingying started to say something.
The Eldest Senior Brother before her wore a warm smile on his handsome face as he opened his arms to her.
"There's no need to say anything."
The words struck the girl's heart like a thunderbolt!
Her cheeks burned, and her heart pounded furiously.
After hesitating for a second, she trotted a few steps and plunged into her Eldest Senior Brother's embrace!
"That's a good girl."
Lin Xiao gently stroked the girl's silky long hair and glanced sideways.
He saw that the Beast Taming Demon Bead that had been around her neck was now gone!
Good thing I sacrificed my pride to turn the tide.
My maxed-out Charm Value did have some effect after all.
Lin Xiao breathed a sigh of relief.
"Congratulations, Host, for successfully suppressing the Child of Destiny! Rewards: Sword Dao +5 (Your Sword Intent realm has advanced!), Endowment +3, Secret Manual of the Hehuan Sect x1 (Bonus Skill: Rotating Method)!" The rıghtful source is novelFɪre.net
A new system prompt sounded in Lin Xiao's mind.
Lin Xiao was slightly surprised.
I just comforted my junior martial sister, and that counts as suppressing that idiot Ye Chen?
But on second thought...
What the hell is this Secret Manual of the Hehuan Sect?
And what in the world is this Rotating Method?
Is this even a proper technique?
Ye Chen was kneeling on one knee, his face contorted in pain.
"Old Shi, I think... my eyes were injured by that Immortal Stick's Sword Qi!"
"Now, when I look at the sky, everything has a faint green shimmer!"
Corrupted? Whatever! I'm sick of this broken world! Let it all be destroyed!
Lin Xiao's eyes were bloodshot, like an enraged lion!
"Host's emotional state detected at 5%! Extremely close to the Corruption Threshold!"
"Warning! The Idle Antagonist System is collapsing!"
A loud bang resounded in his mind!
Just when Lin Xiao thought it was all over, another familiar "DING!" rang out!
"Congratulations, Host! You have acquired the 'Destiny Villain System'!"
"Your identity has been revised from [Minion: Lin Xiao] to [Ultimate Villain: Lin Xiao!]"
"Your status has been automatically upgraded!"
"The current world module has been slightly modified!"
Lin Xiao's eyes turned blood-red, like those of an enraged lion!
Destiny Villain, huh...
Very well. Since all you protagonists have such messed-up personalities, then... let's all join the glorious descent into darkness!
Ye Chen! You useless, good-for-nothing trash that can't be helped!
From now on, your women, your opportunities, the aces up your sleeve, and even your sister in the North Barbarian lands commanding thirty thousand Dragon Knights—all of it will be under my, Lin Xiao's, control!
Lin Xiao's eyes sparkled with a crazed light.
Golden sunlight slanted down, bathing his handsome, flawless face, casting him as a dangerous yet alluring Evil God!
The outcome was decided.
The entire venue erupted!
All eyes were on the stage, fixed upon the Eldest Senior Brother of Divine Phoenix Peak. Dressed in robes as white as snow, he was as handsome as a divine Buddha and capable of summoning heavenly thunder with a single sword strike!
A mixture of shock, awe, and adoration filled their expressions!
On the high platform, the five Chairmen each wore a distinct expression.
"Congratulations, Sister Hongling. After Lin Xiao's battle today, the power hierarchy among the younger generation of our Qinglan Sect will be completely redrawn!"
