I, the Destined Villain, Start by Controlling the Saint

In the chess game, one thing defeats anotherDressed in the celestial blue gown made of Divine Silkworm Silk prepared by the maid, Lan Yuhong looked like a graceful Fairy, appearing even more radiant and captivating.

She excitedly held up her skirt, twirled in front of Xiao Fan, and with a lively, playful twinkle in her starry eyes, she asked,

”Xiao Fan Gege, do I look good?”

”Of course, Yuhong, you are the most beautiful in the world,” Xiao Fan praised sincerely.

Although it wasn’t the first time he had complimented a girl as the most beautiful, women are emotional beings; as long as the words sound good, whether they are true or not doesn’t matter.

Hehe, Lan Yuhong smiled sweetly, revealing two charming dimples.

Then, she began to help Xiao Fan change, just like a little wife, tidying his attire.

It was her first time doing it, so she was a bit clumsy.

Xiao Fan enjoyed it immensely. Hmm, this type of gentle, wifely young girl was truly wonderful!

Lan Yuhong patiently worked, while also saying,

”Xiao Fan Gege, I just got a very mysterious Cultivation Technique from that jade pendant. Do you want to learn it? I can teach you.”

A Cultivation Technique? It’s probably something recorded in the Ice Soul Clan’s Legacy Holy Jade, Xiao Fan thought.

”No need. You just focus on comprehending it well.”

Generally speaking, a certain race’s Cultivation Technique is only suitable for people of that race to cultivate. The more powerful the Cultivation Technique, the more stringent the cultivation conditions, perhaps even requiring a special Physique.

Moreover, no matter how high the Rank of this Cultivation Technique, could it surpass the Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength? Impossible.

Lan Yuhong didn’t say anything more, only obediently and sensibly replied, ”Okay.”

Looking at the innocent and lively Lan Yuhong, Xiao Fan tucked a strand of her hair from her forehead behind her ear and said,

”Let’s go.”

”Mm.”

...

”Madam, Young Lord has arrived.”

Inside Xiao Mother’s palace, a maid brought her the news.

Xiao Mother awoke from her meditation, her eyes holding a hint of confusion. She understood Xiao Fan’s personality.

He was typically someone who wouldn’t visit without a reason. After he turned six, he rarely Actively stick to her, and even seldom came to her palace.

Something must be up!

”I understand. Bring him in.”

”Yes.”

Xiao Mother took a deep breath, a loving smile on her face, preparing to see what Xiao Fan was up to.

Xiao Fan held Lan Yuhong’s hand as they walked into the main hall. Lan Yuhong was a bit nervous, gripping Xiao Fan’s hand tightly, which made her feel much more at ease.

Seeing his loving mother, Xiao Fan said with a smile, ”Mother, this is Yuhong, my newly recognized younger sister.”

”Yuhong, this is my mother. You must get along well with her from now on.”

A newly recognized younger sister? What was this all about?

Xiao Mother was puzzled, but when she saw the space between Lan Yuhong’s eyebrows, she was dumbfounded.

As an experienced person, she immediately saw that the space between Lan Yuhong’s eyebrows had opened, and her charm was beginning to show. This boy had taken advantage of the girl.

She didn’t object to Xiao Fan having many wives and concubines, but he had just gotten engaged to Jiang Lan Zhi a few days ago and was already looking for other women.

At least win over Jiang Lan Zhi first!

Lan Yuhong looked up at the beautiful woman in front of her and timidly said, ”Greetings, Madam.”

Calling her ’Mother’ would be presumptuous. Lan Yuhong was too sensible; her words and actions were always appropriate.

Originally, Xiao Mother didn’t have a good impression of Lan Yuhong; she preferred Jiang Lanzhi. However, Lan Yuhong’s natural obedience and well-mannered behavior quickly changed Xiao Mother’s mind.

”Yuhong, tell me, did Xiao Fan force you?”

Xiao Fan’s mother didn’t believe that her son could make a woman fall for him in half a month.

Lan Yuhong whispered, ”Xiao Fan Gege didn’t force me. It was all my own will.”

Xiao Mother: ???

Alright, boy, you’re good at tricking young girls.

Xiao Mother: ”Did he and you...”

She didn’t explicitly state it, but Xiao Mother Lan Yuhong understood the unspoken meaning.

”Please listen to my explanation. It wasn’t Xiao Fan Gege’s fault. I was the one who Active push... pushed him down,” Lan Yuhong said, lowering her head, her face burning red.

These words left Xiao Mother utterly dumbfounded.

Ah?

After a while, she regained her composure and said with a smile,

”Mm, Yuhong, please step out for a moment. I have something to say to Xiao Fan.”

Lan Yuhong looked back at Xiao Fan, and seeing him nod, she sensibly left.

After everyone had left, Xiao Mother’s face tightened, and she said coldly,

”Tell me, what kind of mesmerizing potion did you give that girl?”

”It seems I’ve been too lenient with you, and now you’ve gone and done something big.”

Xiao Fan immediately knelt down and pleaded, ”Mother, I know I was wrong.”

”Wrong about what?” she said, puffing out her cheeks.

Xiao Fan: ”Wherever you say I’m wrong, I’m wrong.”

Xiao Mother: ??

Is that your attitude for admitting fault? She was so angry that she rubbed her forehead. She pulled out a green vine, ready to give Xiao Fan a good beating.

Xiao Fan immediately stepped forward, took her arm, and said with a chuckle, ”It hurts you more than it hurts me. Don’t be angry.”

As he spoke, he casually dislodged the vine and tossed it aside.

It was an old trick; every time, Xiao Mother would feign anger but never had the heart to actually hit him.

Xiao Mother sighed, helpless:

”Mother allows you to find women. Even if you establish a harem of three palaces, six compounds, and seventy-two concubines, Mother won’t say anything. But could you please consider Jiang Lan Zhi’s feelings?”

”If she knew that you were having fun with other women during your engagement to her, how upset would she be?”

Xiao Fan said with a smile, ”If you don’t tell her, won’t that solve it?”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Mother’s eyes rolled back; this rascal was hopeless.

”I mean, your first woman should have been Jiang Lan Zhi, not Yuhong. This is a matter of principle.”

Xiao Fan still smiled and said, ”Who said Yuhong is my first woman?”

Xiao Mother was shocked. Ah?

You’ve been left unsupervised for half a year, and you’ve just let yourself go, haven’t you?

She took a deep breath and said,

”Who was that woman?”

”Which one?” Xiao Fan asked.

Xiao Mother truly felt her vision blur, her heart almost giving out from the shock.

”Honestly, how many are there?” she asked sternly.

”Before Yuhong, there were only two.”

Alright, only two, barely acceptable.

But Xiao Fan’s next words struck her like lightning.

”One is the Saintess of Tai Xuan Holy Land, and the other is the Saintess of Yaoguang Holy Land. Trust me, my taste isn’t bad.”

”What! You even managed to win over Holy Land Saintess? And two of them?”

Xiao Fan said seriously, ”Yes, I wouldn’t even look at ordinary women.”

Xiao Mother felt her head buzzing. She sent him to the Holy Land to cultivate, and all he thought about was women. She regretted letting her son leave home in the first place.

She felt some regret.

”Sigh, you handle it yourself. I can’t even bear to look at you anymore,” Xiao Mother said irritably.

Xiao Fan, however, wouldn’t give up. Lan Yuhong’s arrangements were still unsettled.

He recounted Lan Yuhong’s background to his mother.

Listening to the introduction, Xiao Mother began to sympathize with Lan Yuhong. So she was a child of misfortune after all.

Women are emotional. Listening to Lan Yuhong’s experiences, Xiao Mother’s attitude towards Lan Yuhong gained a hint of pity.

”Tell me, how do you want me to arrange it?” Xiao Mother said irritably.

”Just, you arrange it so she can have a good cultivation environment and cultivate well. She’s very much a Genius; she learns everything quickly,” Xiao Fan affirmed.

”Really, you only come to your mother when you need something; otherwise, you never come to see me,” she said with a stern face.

Xiao Fan chuckled, ”No way! I have a gift to give you.”

In the Wanlong Nest, he found several glowing exotic treasures, among which was a jade hairpin shining like a star, of very high Rank, hidden in a box made of Phoenix bones.

Xiao Fan took out the jade hairpin and handed it to her.

”Look, I spent a lot of effort to find this for you.”

Xiao Mother initially thought he was trying to fool her and casually glanced at it, but when she saw the jade hairpin, a hint of surprise flashed in her eyes.

However, she quickly returned to normal, so much so that even Xiao Fan didn’t notice.

”What a beautiful hairpin! Where did you get it?” Xiao Mother said delightedly.

”A Secret Realm called Wanlong Nest,” Xiao Fan replied truthfully.

”Alright, I will teach Yuhong.”

”It’s settled then, you must take good care of her.”

”Go away! No matter what, she’s still my daughter-in-law. If I don’t take good care of her, who will? You boy, you’re the type to forget your old mother once you have a Dao Companion.”

”No, Mother, in my heart, you are forever the most beautiful in the world. You are the most important.”

Xiao Mother’s face bloomed into a smile upon hearing this. Although she knew it was flattery, she was still very happy. No wonder he could win over two Saintess from Holy Lands.

”As expected of my son,” she said with satisfaction.

Xiao Fan said a few words to Lan Yuhong, telling her to listen to his mother, then left.

Lan Yuhong’s greatest strength was her obedience, so she naturally had no objections.

After leaving the palace, Xiao Fan suddenly remembered that his mother’s head seemed to have no script.

White, green, red, purple, gold—not even the simplest white script was there. Strange.

He looked at the other people in the clan and found that they all had scripts. Truly strange.

”System, what’s the reason? Why doesn’t my mother have a script above her head?” Xiao Fan secretly wondered.

[There are two reasons.]

[One, walking corpses, Puppet Clones; these are considered tools and naturally will not have scripts.]

[Two, an existence whose name cannot be spoken.]

Xiao Fan was stunned. His mother’s care for him was genuine; he could feel it.

”Then my mother, she is...?”

[The second type.]

Xiao Fan fell silent. Since his mother had such powerful strength,

Why did he still die in the world line without the System?

His parents dying in a forbidden land? How ’forbidden’ could a forbidden land in the human realm be?

The more he thought about it, the more terrifying it became.

It seemed he had fallen into a chess game, with an invisible grand hand manipulating the board, and he was just an ordinary chess piece.

”System, will you be detected?”

[No, besides the Host, no one knows of Lord System’s existence.]

Lord System? You’re getting ahead of yourself.

”What about my parents?”

[They are all real. You are their biological child; you just don’t know their true identities.]

Forget it. If the sky falls, someone taller will hold it up. This wasn’t something he, a small Nascent Soul fish, should be thinking about.

Discarding everything useless, Xiao Fan prepared to reach Soul Transformation. Dual Cultivation had also improved his strength further, so he could prepare for Soul Transformation.

On the other side, Xiao Fan’s mother glanced at Lan Yuhong and immediately knew her origin.

”The Ice Soul Clan? Most of them are dead. Currently, there are still some clinging to life.”

”This girl must be the goddess who was sent down to this realm back then,” she thought to herself.

Alright, since she is my son’s woman, I will lend you a hand.

She gently tapped, and Lan Yuhong instantly froze, her consciousness falling into darkness.

Her body became increasingly transparent, and the cold aura grew more solid. The Legacy Holy Jade also accelerated its Fusion with her body.

”Senior.”

Xin Xi emerged. This was her first appearance since being taken away by Xiao Fan’s mother last time.

”Mm, it seems you’ve gained a lot.”

”It’s all thanks to Senior’s help,” Xin Xi said respectfully, completely devoid of her Immortal Palace Master aura, more like a Junior.

”She is?”

”Hehe, one of my son’s Dao Companion.”

Xin Xi was speechless and stunned. Saint, he’s still the same.

”Don’t think too much. I don’t interfere with my son’s affairs. If you have the ability to win him over, I’ll fully support it.”

”However, you also cannot interfere with him. You can only listen to him, understand?” Xiao Fan’s mother said coldly.

Xin Xi smiled bitterly, ”Junior understands. I will definitely obey the Saint.”

”Go.”
