Option two seems pretty sweet—not only does it come with a bottle of Skybreak Pills, but it also includes three free Heavenly Force peak-level puppets as bodyguards.
[Skybreak Pills: Can help martial artists at the Heavenly Force peak level break through their limits with a 100% success rate, advancing to the Skybreak Phase.]
Each bottle contains 16 pills. Combined with the three free Heavenly Force peak puppets, Jiang Che could create three Skybreak Phase powerhouses!
"Not bad, not bad. System, you’ve got some decent perks. Knowing how tough inflation is these days, you’re handing out welfare now, huh?"
Jiang Che smirked. Gotta admit... being spoon-fed like this feels pretty damn good.
Questioning the protagonist → Understanding the protagonist → Becoming the protagonist → Surpassing the protagonist.
As for the third option’s reward... now that’s interesting!
[Anti-Force Particle Weapon Blueprint: Contains designs for 16 different weapons of varying lethality, capable of effectively harming martial artists at different levels.]
Oh ho, so we’re using science to beat magic now?
"I’ll take options two and three."
......
"Come forth, Misfortune Card!"
With a flick of his wrist, Jiang Che summoned a silver-white card, crushing it instantly.
Invisible to others, countless beams of light surged into Ye Qing’s body.
The Misfortune Card had been gathering dust in Jiang Che’s system inventory—finally, it was time to put it to use.
"Huh?"
Ye Qing frowned, instinctively sensing something was off, but he couldn’t pinpoint what.
After activating the card, Jiang Che stepped forward without hesitation.
"Go on, show us what priceless treasure you’ve brought as a gift."
Honestly, Jiang Che couldn’t wrap his head around Ye Qing’s logic. As a so-called "Child of Fortune" with zero connection to him, why would this guy suddenly crash his college celebration banquet?
[Host, your Villain Aura naturally attracts those blessed by fate.]
Jiang Che: "..."
Ah, so you’re cranking up the spawn rate, huh?
...
Mentioning a "priceless treasure" made Ye Qing smirk.
This was the moment he’d been waiting for—his time to shine!
Before leaving, his fortune-telling master had warned him of a great tribulation in his future. Overcoming it would be like a carp leaping through the Dragon’s Gate!
The master even wrote a single character in his palm: Jiang.
Following the clue, he arrived at the Jiang family’s estate in the capital.
"Trust me, the treasure I’ve brought will leave you speechless."
Ye Qing reached into his pocket... only for his expression to falter.
"Ahem... maybe it’s in this one."
In front of nearly a thousand guests, he frantically checked every pocket—only to realize his storage pouch was gone!
That pouch was a priceless heirloom from his second master, capable of holding countless treasures. Every valuable he owned was inside it.
And now it had just... vanished?
What kind of sick joke was this?!
Panicking, Ye Qing even dropped to the floor, searching desperately.
"Where is it? It can’t be gone!"
"Ow—!"
His head smacked into a table corner—clearly, the Misfortune Card was in full effect.
"What’re you looking for? Don’t tell me you’re trying to scam us?"
Jiang Che’s sinister voice whispered in Ye Qing’s ear.
Ye Qing looked up—just in time to see a fist the size of a sandbag flying toward his face.
!!!
Instinctively, his defensive Force Barrier flared to life.
But Jiang Che was faster.
BOOM!
The barrier shattered like glass as the punch connected squarely with Ye Qing’s jaw.
"This guy dared to challenge the Jiang family with his measly Grandmaster peak strength! Beat him down!"
In seconds, a swarm of Jiang family Grandmasters descended upon Ye Qing.
Officially, the Jiangs had only five Grandmasters. But who actually believed that?
Even the hunched old servant carrying trays unleashed the aura of a Grandmaster at peak strength!
At least five Grandmaster peak experts were wailing on Ye Qing alone.
"Wait, let me explai— AHHH!"
Sure, protagonists could fight above their weight class—but this was a straight-up gang beating, with several Heavenly Force Grandmasters watching from the sidelines!
Ye Qing stood no chance.
He was promptly pinned and pummeled into the ground.
Jiang Che, of course, joined in. Against a Child of Fortune? He fought dirty.
Eagle Claw Technique, Monkey Steals the Peach, Nutcracker Kick—he threw everything into the mix.
"SCREEE—"
The agonized screams turned the refined banquet into a back-alley brawl.
"Nice, nice. Truly worthy of a villainous family."
Jiang Che nodded approvingly at Ye Qing, now lying limp as a dead dog.
"Do you... even know who I am? Cough—"
"Don’t care! Keep hitting him!"
...
The sheer brutality left the guests stunned.
Other martial arts families in attendance instinctively clenched their buttocks.
This was the Jiang family?
No wonder they were called the martial world’s most ruthless tyrants!
Chen Hao’s legs trembled. Thank goodness he’d never crossed Jiang Che—he’d hate to end up like that.
"I need to get Shuang'er to whisper in Young Master Jiang’s ear... Shuang'er, don’t blame your brother. If you don’t suffer, I’m finished!"
But the most shocked was Jiang Ruoxu.
He stared at Jiang Che, utterly dumbfounded.
Jiang Che’s strength—now at mid-Grandmaster level—blew his mind.
How... how did Jiang Che improve so fast?
Two months ago, Jiang Ruoxu was at mid-Transcendent Force, while Jiang Che was at late-Transcendent. Back then, Jiang Che had crushed him effortlessly.
Since then, Jiang Ruoxu trained like mad in the Forbidden Martial Zone, reaching half-step Grandmaster. He’d thought his progress was godly—yet Jiang Che was already mid-Grandmaster?!
HOW?! This defied all logic!
Jiang Che’s talent was supposed to be trash! The self-proclaimed genius’s pride took another brutal hit.
Then, Jiang Che dragged Ye Qing by the hair and tossed him at Jiang Ruoxu’s feet like a sack of meat.
"Here. Revenge served. Wanna punch him a few times to vent?"
Jiang Ruoxu: "..."
For some reason, all his resentment toward Jiang Che evaporated instantly.
"Heh—"
Jiang Che chuckled. Dealing with a tsundere brat like Jiang Ruoxu was child’s play.
So what if Ye Qing was a "Child of Fortune" with 18 legendary masters? So what if he was a Grandmaster peak prodigy?
Did it matter?
Against Jiang Che’s shameless tactics, he never stood a chance.
[Ding! Host has completed Villain Options 2 and 3.]

yet utterly incapable of cultivation. In the end, his master cast him out. Roaming the mortal world with his companion, the qilin Da Huang, he eventually returned to the Chen family. There, he obtained the Innatal Womb Pearl and finally unlocked the path to cultivation. Little did Chen Chang'an expect—his true talent for cultivation had been hidden within his mother's womb all along?
d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!
