I, the Destined Villain, Start by Controlling the Saint

The position of the Son of God is not important, but noble characterFat Elder was a little confused; Xiao Fan came out right after the Blessing of Grace was triggered.

Could it be that he was carried out by a Puppet as soon as he entered the Refining Void Initial Stage - Early Stage?

Fat Elder thought carefully; back then, the Holy Lord, with his Nascent Soul Stage - Late Phase Cultivation, was about to advance to the Soul Transformation Realm, yet he only managed to hold on for three days in the Refining Void Initial Stage - Early Stage.

The Saint, having just formed his Nascent Soul, could already enter the Void Refining layer. This Aptitude was already stronger than the Holy Lord’s back then.

”Give the Saint a little more time to stabilize his Realm. Maybe he can, with a Nascent Soul Stage - Early Phase Cultivation, pass the first wave of attacks in the Refining Void Initial Stage - Early Stage,” Fat Elder thought.

What he didn’t know was that as soon as Xiao Fan entered the Refining Void Initial Stage - Early Stage, he went all out, activating all 21 million giant elephant particles; the Nethergod Spear was ready.

At the same time, he transformed into the Hell Furnace.

Xiao Fan struck with immense power, his fierce fists clashing with the Puppets, and the Nethergod Spear coordinated the offense, gathering the three Puppets together.

Then, he transformed into the Hell Furnace and refined these three Puppets. The three Puppets naturally resisted fiercely, but Xiao Fan calmly dealt with them, refining them with all his might.

Fortunately, these Puppets didn’t have any Magic Treasure, otherwise, he really wouldn’t have been able to suppress them.

He went all out, taking a full two and a half minutes to defeat these three Puppets.

If this were a real battle against a Refining Void Initial Stage - Early Stage Cultivator, the opponent would have run away if he couldn’t win.

”So, my strength can probably only defeat a Refining Void Initial Stage - Early Stage Cultivator, but I can’t kill them.”

Xiao Fan had a clearer understanding of his own strength.

After destroying this wave of Puppets, Xiao Fan chose to stop the challenge, and the Pagoda Spirit, based on Xiao Fan’s strength, bestowed the Blessing of Grace.

Xiao Fan was somewhat expectant. The Blessing of Grace mentioned by the Pagoda Spirit must not be an ordinary item. Will it give me a treasure to Cultivate? Or a Divine Cultivation Technique to comprehend? Or perhaps a precious Pill?

He couldn’t guess at all.

He saw the Pagoda Spirit of the Battle Law Pagoda draw a five-colored divine light from the center of the Pagoda, lightly point a finger, and the divine light shone into Xiao Fan’s eyes. In just an instant, Xiao Fan felt as if he had experienced a hundred years of tempering in the Mortal World.

”Looks so awesome.”

When he opened his eyes, Xiao Fan felt as if he had dreamt for a hundred years.

As expected of a treasure sent down from the Upper Realm, one word: incredible!

”Why are so many people surrounding me? Are they welcoming me?” Xiao Fan saw a group of people standing in front of him and said affably.

Fat Elder stepped forward to explain the situation, informing Xiao Fan that when the Blessing of Grace was triggered, everyone else would be kicked out of the Pagoda.

Xiao Fan was stunned for a moment, and a hint of realization dawned in his heart.

So, the System’s mention of disrupting Ye Chen’s plan just now was to kick him out of the Battle Law Pagoda?

With Xiao Fan’s two and a half years of web novel experience, he instantly saw through Ye Chen’s plan.

Places with rankings and leaderboards have always been spawning points for Qi Luck Children, and this Battle Law Pagoda was naturally no exception.

And Ye Chen definitely wanted to come here to fiercely display his Cultivation Talent, combined with his previously demonstrated Alchemy and Daoist Magic Aptitude.

The Holy Land would certainly make an exception and grant him generous treatment.

Then, he would come to deal with himself.

Damn, what an evil plan!

Although there’s no evidence, do I, a villain, need evidence to intercept a Child of Destiny?

Ye Chen saw Xiao Fan emerge. Currently, Xiao Fan was not his opponent, so he didn’t want to get entangled and turned to leave.

How could Xiao Fan let him have his way?

”You must be Ye Chen, right?” Xiao Fan said to Ye Chen.

Ye Chen paused. Since his Rebirth, he had never said a single word in front of Xiao Fan, so how could he recognize him?

Clearly, his Luck was exchanged for his brain.

Not to mention that Xiao Fan was a villain who could see his script, his high-profile actions in the Scripture Pavilion and the Pill Pavilion had already spread like wildfire throughout the Holy Land.

Many Disciples also recognized him.

”Oh, it really is him!”

”It really is Ye Chen, I’m seeing him in person.”

Ye Chen was already high-profile. Many Disciples had seen him display his Divine Might in the Pill Pavilion and the Scripture Pavilion. Just now, everyone’s attention was on the Pagoda, so no one noticed him.

Now that Xiao Fan called him out by name, he was instantly recognized.

”Who is Ye Chen?”

”You don’t even know this?”

”I just came back from three days of Cultivation a few days ago, recuperating.”

”Next time, take me with you to Cultivate, and I’ll tell you.”

”No problem, it’s not my Dao Companion anyway, you can use her as you please.”

...

Some Disciples began to introduce Ye Chen’s glorious deeds to the other baffled Disciples.

He improved Pill Formulas, wrote new Pill Formulas, and improved Cultivation Techniques in the Scripture Pavilion, making the Elders of the Pill Pavilion and the Scripture Pavilion exclaim that he was a peerless Genius, all wanting to take him as their own.

With this explanation, everyone present understood Ye Chen’s deeds.

It was simply astonishing!

Ye Chen’s heart sank.

This guy doesn’t know I’m a Rebirth. With my Immortal Emperor Realm Dao Heart from my previous life, am I afraid of him?

Ye Chen turned around and bowed slightly, saying, ”Greetings, Saint.”

”Hmm, you’re quite good,” Xiao Fan said indifferently. ”I’ve heard about the matters in the Pill Pavilion and the Scripture Pavilion. I’ve also investigated your family background; it’s quite ordinary. It seems you harbor quite a few secrets.”

Ye Chen’s heart tightened. Although his story of obtaining Opportunity by chance could deceive some Elders, if this Saint forcibly attacked him, he probably wouldn’t be punished.

Ye Chen quickly said, ”The Saint overpraises me. I merely received guidance from a master and learned some superficial skills, which are not worth mentioning.”

Oh?

Now you know how to hide it. Did you think about today when you were so high-profile before?

However, Xiao Fan is a Saint respected by everyone. How can I, a positive figure, do such a thing as casually bullying others?

Xiao Fan: ”Why say all this? Could it be that I would steal your things?”

The Disciples present also noticed some clues.

Why do these two people seem so strange?

”Did Ye Chen offend the Saint?”

”Unclear, but Ye Chen’s high-profile display of talent might indicate he has ambitions for the Saint’s position.”

Ye Chen was also uneasy. His current strength was still very low. If Xiao Fan wanted to act, he could crush him with one hand.

However, Xiao Fan deeply understood the principle of recycling waste.

An Immortal Emperor’s brain must contain many Cultivation Techniques, Pill Formulas, Formations, a walking knowledge treasure trove!

Under everyone’s puzzled gazes, they heard Xiao Fan speak loudly:

”I see your extraordinary talent. If you want to be the Saint, you’re welcome to compete with me.”

As soon as these words came out, the entire place fell silent.

The Saint, he’s looking for an opponent for himself?

”Don’t look at me like that. I’m just a part of the Holy Land.

The so-called Saint is just a special Disciple of the Holy Land. For the Holy Land to prosper and develop, it must inject fresh Bloodline and allow more Geniuses to show themselves.”

”I don’t care about the Saint’s position. The Holy Land has high hopes for me, and I should offer advice for the Holy Land’s development. If you can surpass me, I’d be overjoyed!”

Then he earnestly said to Ye Chen:

”Your Alchemy attainment and comprehension of Cultivation Techniques impress me.

The Elders of the Pill Pavilion and the Scripture Pavilion all want to take you as their Disciple. How about this, I’ll write a letter to the Grand Elder and ask him to arrange for you to Cultivate in the Pill Pavilion and the Scripture Pavilion.

Don’t fight over him, your talent is outstanding, and comprehensive development is the kingly Dao.”

”Oh, and since you’re so versatile, you might also be proficient in Formation and Artifact Refining. I’ll also ask the Grand Elder to arrange for you to learn from the Formation Elder and at the Artifact Refining Pavilion. What do you think?”

”Of course, you’ll have to fight for your own treatment, as I’ve already done my best by arranging four Elders for you.”

Xiao Fan’s tone was sincere and full of earnestness, appearing eager for talented individuals.

It was as if he didn’t care about the Saint’s position and was solely dedicated to the prosperity and development of the Holy Land.

This sight filled many Disciples with respect.

Selfless and utterly without personal gain, what noble virtue is this?

Moreover, this was spoken in public, without any pretense, which showed his true heart!

Silence!

One could hear a pin drop!

Everyone was dumbfounded. Did the Saint know what he was saying?

To let one person Cultivate four skills, how highly did he regard him? This wasn’t even the most crucial part. If Ye Chen truly was an all-around prodigy, his Saint’s position would most likely be in jeopardy!

Ye Chen was also bewildered. He thought Xiao Fan was going to make things difficult for him, but it turned out he was helping him.

Is he that kind-hearted?

Ye Chen asked tentatively, ”How can Ye Chen, of what virtue and ability, receive such courtesy from the Saint? Please, Saint, do not jest with Ye Chen.”

Not only Ye Chen didn’t believe it, but everyone present didn’t believe it either. What did the Saint’s position represent? The future Holy Land Master!

Tai Xuan Holy Land was a top power, and the Holy Land Master was someone standing at the peak of the world, with immense power.

He actually intended to Cultivate Ye Chen towards becoming the Saint; it was inconceivable!

”Did you understand?”

”It’s well-known that big breasts mean no brains, so I don’t understand,” said the female Disciple with large breasts and dull eyes, her voice sounding foolish.

”For a moment, I didn’t know if you were showing off or pretending to be silly,” sighed a female Disciple with a vast, flat chest.

”The Saint has explained it so clearly, why don’t you still understand?” A person stepped forward, none other than Zhou Lin, whose Dao Heart had been shattered by Xiao Fan earlier.

”Elaborate.”

”I once arrogantly fought with the Saint. Although the Saint shattered my Dao Heart in three moves, he wasn’t angry. Instead, he comforted me, saying that failure is the mother of success. I understood the principle and my Realm advanced a step further.”

”The Saint’s temperament is gentle and kind. Even someone like me, who provoked him, he could kindly guide me. Don’t you understand? The Saint has no selfish motives; everything is for the Holy Land!”

Xiao Fan was stunned for a moment. Eh, why is it you again, fellow?

But your assist was beautiful, nice!

Zhou Lin’s words, combined with Xiao Fan’s previous statements, instantly painted the picture of a selfless Saint.

A grand and magnificent image instantly materialized!

Everyone’s gaze towards Xiao Fan also carried a hint of admiration.

Ye Chen, of course, didn’t believe Xiao Fan. Even after a hundred thousand years, the events between Xiao Fan and Ji Qingxue in the Secret Realm were still vivid in his mind.

You must die!

Xiao Fan struck while the iron was hot, immediately summoning a message Immortal Crane, writing a letter, and having the Immortal Crane carry it to the Grand Elder.

”Hmm, I’ve paved the way for you. I hope you don’t disappoint me,” Xiao Fan said meaningfully.

After speaking, he left.

Leaving behind only the confident back of a strong Cultivator for everyone to see.

Ye Chen’s eyes narrowed slightly.

Although I don’t know what you’re planning, I’ll make you realize that recommending me to compete for the Saint’s position is the biggest mistake you’ve ever made in your life!

Xiao Fan was secretly pleased, it seemed his acting just now was good.

After being struck by lightning and Cultivating hard for half a day in the Battle Law Pagoda, he deserved to reward himself!

After Cultivating diligently for over a month, shouldn’t he enjoy himself?

The next moment, he turned towards Saintess Peak.

Mortal World tempering had washed away many Random Thoughts from my heart, but there are always some things that keep me true to my original Dao Heart!!!
