I, the Destined Villain, Start by Controlling the Saint

Lin Yu appeared, one set after anotherThe beautiful woman in red could not hide her excitement; after ten thousand years of searching with no news, she had once thought the child was no longer in this world, but unexpectedly, she was still alive.

“Sister, your child is still alive, and I will protect her well, so please rest assured.”

The beautiful woman in red came before a tombstone and said with tears in her eyes, yet smiling.

Perhaps it had been too long since she had spoken to anyone, so she stayed here a bit longer today.

“The struggle to become a Saint, even among family, can lead to falling out.”

“If there hadn’t been the so-called Sacred Book back then, our Zhao family wouldn’t have been torn apart, and you, sister, wouldn’t have met with misfortune; everything… sigh.”

The beautiful woman in red spoke of the past, hesitating, but realized that talking about these things now was useless; protecting that child was the most important matter at hand.

“I won’t let anything happen to her,” the beautiful woman in red secretly vowed.

… … … … … …

This was Xiao Fan’s first long journey.

Starting from Eternal Immortal Domain, Xiao Fan and Zhao Ling’er took a trans-domain teleportation array to Reincarnation Immortal Domain.

After several transfers, it took more than a month to reach the southern part of Reincarnation Immortal Domain.

The two walked on the streets of an Immortal City, planning to find a place to stay and rest for two days first.

They also intended to inquire about the Zhao family’s situation.

Although Zhao Ling’er was usually a bit boisterous, she still expressed her gratitude to Xiao Fan for accompanying her on the long journey without complaint.

“You’re actually a pretty good person; it would be perfect if you were a bit more serious,” Zhao Ling’er said, nodding.

“How am I not serious?” Xiao Fan asked.

“You just look pretty unserious, and I suspect you’re very lustful, though I have no evidence,” Zhao Ling’er said with disdain.

“Do you understand what it means to be a true hero?”

“Also, what do you mean by ‘suspect’? I’m just showing my true nature.” Xiao Fan chuckled; this little girl was actually suspicious. Had he not been obvious enough?

Zhao Ling’er was stunned; how could he say it so proudly?

This guy wouldn’t think I was praising him, would he?

The two spoke past each other, which was quite amusing.

Behind them, followed a large black dog as tall as a man, its eyes glowing blue as if flames burned within them, and a collar around its neck with a chain attached.

However, no one was holding its chain, so it could only hold the chain in its mouth and follow behind.

Aside from the large black dog, there was also a three-legged bird, entirely brown but emitting golden light, which was very strange, especially the flames on its body that burned unceasingly.

It looked like a walking great sun, so scorching that it was impossible to look directly at it.

A Golden Immortal girl, a Golden Immortal three-legged bird, and a similarly extraordinary large black dog, along with a remarkably handsome young man—this unique combination clearly indicated a significant background.

Passersby, fearing to offend them, would choose to take a detour and steer clear when they saw them from afar.

“What kind of bird is that? It has three legs.”

“Such powerful Demonic Qi, I’ve never seen anything like it.”

“That dog isn’t simple either; it’s enveloped in Death Qi. I feel like if it bit me, I’d lose my life.”

Being a villain is good; even when keeping a low profile, passersby will avoid you, fearing to invite disaster.

Unlike the protagonist, who gets ridiculed from start to finish, to the point of being utterly humiliated.

They found a restaurant called Water Cloud Pavilion, which had a serene and subtly luxurious environment. Xiao Fan and Zhao Ling’er didn’t want to waste much time on accommodation, so they decided to stay there.

Xiao Fan said seriously, “Let’s just share one room. That way, I can protect you if there’s danger.”

Zhao Ling’er clenched her jade hands into small fists, her shoulders hunched as she snapped, “Get lost! Your mind is full of perverted thoughts! Don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking.”

Xiao Fan shrugged helplessly, finding it quite amusing.

However, even though Zhao Ling’er refused, Xiao Fan wouldn’t let his guard down.

“Wangcai, you take Jin Yan over there. You guard the front door, and Jin Yan watches the backyard. If there are any strangers, drive them away.” After speaking, Xiao Fan turned and left.

“Yes, Master,” Wangcai replied respectfully.

Wangcai turned his head and said to Jin Yan, “Come with me. We need to protect Lady Ling’er’s safety.”

Jin Yan was a bit confused. Wasn’t I supposed to be a mount?

How did I become a doorkeeper now?

Mounts are already considered inferior, and doorkeepers are even worse than dogs.

Jin Yan’s proud heart would not allow him to do such a thing.

Wangcai noticed the hint of reluctance. Reluctant?

Wangcai had also heard that Ah Kun said this scruffy bird was a noble of an ancient great demon, of distinguished status, and even a Golden Crow Prince, so being thin-skinned was normal.

Wangcai teased, “Can’t you save Face?”

Jin Yan hesitated for a moment, then nodded, “There’s a little bit of that.”

“You’re already a mount, what Face do you still want?” Wangcai said disdainfully.

This left Jin Yan speechless.

Seeing its reluctance, Wangcai continued, “Everyone wants to be the chosen one, but in the end, they’re not even a passerby. Don’t think too highly of yourself; you’re not that important.”

“You little brat, don’t be ungrateful. It’s your honor to be a mount by Master’s side. Others who want to follow Master, Master doesn’t even look at them.”

“If you weren’t rare and uncommon, do you think you’d be a mount? Don’t be unappreciative! If Master gets angry, I could be eating your bird legs tonight.”

Wangcai spoke as he walked, then lay down by the main entrance of Zhao Ling’er’s bedroom, vigilantly watching the surroundings.

Jin Yan felt nothing but humiliation!

You’re already a dog, so of course you think guarding is your nature.

But I am a Golden Crow, a noble among demons! Now you want me to guard the courtyard? Isn’t that making me a dog?

You might think being a dog is an honor, but I don’t!

Full of reluctance, Jin Yan went to the backyard obediently after a difficult internal struggle.

Because Wangcai had said one thing that was true: if he didn’t comply, he might be eating bird legs tonight.

Returning to his bedroom, Xiao Fan calmed his mind and focused on cultivating his Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength.

With his cultivation having made a leap, his killing moves also needed to be updated synchronously, as the more techniques, the better.

The Divine Elephant particles had formed, and Xiao Fan broke through the shackles of 840 million Physical Body particles, with the number of Divine Elephants growing wildly.

The rapid increase of these Divine Elephants required a massive amount of Immortal Stone Medicinal Pills. Fortunately, Xiao Fan did not lack these, and he could continuously pour large amounts of cultivation resources into his body at every moment.

This allowed the number of Divine Elephants within his body to increase rapidly.

One billion Divine Elephants…

Two billion Divine Elephants…

Three billion Divine Elephants…

Almost every day, hundreds of millions of Divine Elephant particles awakened. This was the huge benefit brought by breaking through the Bottleneck.

Now, even if a single drop of Xiao Fan’s blood fell to the ground, it could create a massive pit in Reincarnation Immortal Domain.

If he were to release the Divine Elephants within his body, and without a Saint appearing, he alone could now sweep through three thousand Immortal Domains.

Each Divine Elephant possessed the power to tear apart the heavens and rend the earth. With hundreds of millions of Divine Elephants stacked upon one person, he wouldn’t even need to use spells; pure strength alone could suppress everything.

One force breaks all methods!

“No, the killing moves are still not strong enough. Although the Great Sage Offering can sacrifice all living beings and everything, what if the enemy kills all living beings and destroys everything in sight?”

“This move isn’t safe enough; more effort is still needed.”

Xiao Fan continued to comprehend the Dao, having thoroughly grasped the Divine Elephant Suppressing Prison Strength; only the last few moves needed to be mastered proficiently.

On the other side, Jin Yan lay idly in the backyard, lamenting the impermanence of his bird life.

“I, the dignified Golden Crow Prince, have fallen to the point of being a mount for someone, and now I even have to take on the job of guarding the house.”

“Sigh, I’m too difficult.”

“How will I Face my clansmen in the future?”

Jin Yan had originally thought that after his birth, with his outstanding talent, he would at least have a smooth start, if not soar to the heavens.

Who would have thought he’d be captured and made a mount as soon as he appeared?

It was a disastrous start.

“When can I escape his clutches? I want to be a Prince, not a mount.”

Jin Yan thought to himself, but he knew this was just his fantasy; he had to accept his fate.

Just as Jin Yan was about to doze off, someone suddenly appeared in the sky, and the sharp killing intent startled Jin Yan awake from his dream.

“What’s going on? Who’s not afraid of death and dares to cause trouble?”

Jin Yan immediately flew up, spreading his wings, and the Great Sun True Fire splattered out overwhelmingly, forming a wall of fire above Xiao Fan and Zhao Ling’er’s residence to prevent these unknown individuals from disturbing their peace.

Although he said he didn’t want to be a mount, fear still made him act.

He dared not be distracted, his gaze constantly fixed on the source of the killing intent in the sky.

He saw a cold young man holding a long sword, full of killing intent, chasing a ragged, dying Cultivator.

The Cultivator fearfully shouted, “You’re not already dead, how could you still be alive? Don’t haunt me!”

The young man chasing with the sword smiled coldly, “Before I kill all of you, how could I bear to die?”

The distance between the two grew closer. Seeing that he couldn’t escape, the pursued man begged, “Lin Yu, I know I was wrong before. Will you spare me?”

“Weren’t we brothers before? For the sake of our past relationship, spare my life.”

“Brothers? When you betrayed me and set me up, did you consider me your brother?”

Lin Yu grew angrier as he spoke, memories of the past flooding his mind. It was this person, as close as a brother, who had stabbed him in the back.

He could not tolerate betrayal!

“Die!”

Enraged, Lin Yu swung his long sword, and a dazzling white sword light flew from the blade, like a white rainbow piercing the sun, striking the person in front of him.

With a soft sound.

The person fleeing in front couldn’t dodge in time and was directly cut in half at the waist by the sword light. Blood splattered on the ground, landing squarely on Jin Yan’s head.

This terrified Jin Yan. Are you kidding me?

Blood rained down, along with two legs. If these had hit the roof, they would surely have disturbed the people inside.

Without thinking, Jin Yan made the Great Sun True Fire burn fiercely, instantly drying the falling blood. The two legs were even cooked and swallowed in one gulp.

The taste was quite good.

It had been a long time since he ate a human. This human seemed to be a pretty good Genius.

The meat quality was good. It would be even better if he could eat his upper body too.

Jin Yan stared intently at the remains, as if looking at delicious and tempting ingredients.

Some were happy, some were sad. The ingredient with severed legs let out a wail.

“Ah!!”

A piercing wail echoed through the sky, attracting countless eyes.

Just as Lin Yu was about to succeed, intending to sever the man’s neck with a single sword strike, the figure of a middle-aged man suddenly appeared before him, blocking the sword’s edge.

“Elder, save me,” said the man whose legs had been severed.

“With me here, he can’t kill you. Tell me what happened.”

“I don’t know how this Lin Yu came back to life, but I couldn’t defeat him and was forced to flee. My legs were severed. Elder, you must avenge me!”

“Step back, I’ll take him down.”

This middle-aged man, a Taiyi True Immortal Realm Cultivator, didn’t put Lin Yu in his eyes at all. A mere True Immortal, not fleeing when he saw me, and still daring to continue killing people.

He didn’t put me in his eyes!

“Lin Yu, I don’t know how you came back to life, but I know you only have one path: death,” the middle-aged man said with a harsh threat.

Lin Yu showed no weakness, he laughed, “Do you think you’re very strong? Let me tell you, I don’t put you in my eyes at all.”

“What’s so great about a Taiyi True Immortal? Today, I will slay a Taiyi True Immortal. I’m sure when news of your death gets back, they’ll be restless, won’t they?”

That person was furious. A mere True Immortal, daring to boast so shamelessly, claiming to slay a Taiyi True Immortal.

“Heh heh, truly the ignorant are fearless. Today, I’ll show you what cruelty is.”

Lin Yu said disdainfully, “What does it matter if a dying person says a few more words?”

The two immediately began to fight, battling above the galaxy.

However, Lin Yu was constantly holding back, his gaze looking back, as if he had something to worry about.

“No, I must finish this quickly!”

… … … …

At some point, Jin Yan noticed someone standing on his back. He came to his senses and realized it was Xiao Fan.

“Master, these people truly don’t know proper etiquette, disturbing your peace,” Jin Yan said, quickly distancing himself.

Xiao Fan didn’t speak, but his gaze was fixed on the young man.

Betrayal, revenge, confidently fighting across two Realms, it’s hard not to make connections.

Just as he was thinking of finding an informed person to ask, there was a cripple right next to him.

Xiao Fan grabbed with one hand, and the man whose legs had been severed flew uncontrollably towards Xiao Fan. The man tried to shout for help, but found he couldn’t speak, and his body was stiff and unable to move.

Meeting Xiao Fan’s gaze, the man felt only indifference, neither killing intent nor pity, as if he were looking at an ant.

Xiao Fan smiled at him, “You disturbed me, so I’ll borrow your life for a moment.”

Soul Search!

The man’s pupils constricted, filled with terror, but soon his eyes rolled back, and he was lifeless.

Lin Yu, the betrayed Genius, had his imprint dug out, his Immortal Physical Body crippled, and his innate treasure stolen…

These buffs are a bit much.

A bit tricky!

But when he saw the latter part, he felt it was still acceptable.

“A beautiful younger sister and a gentle aunt, right nearby? Hiss! It doesn’t seem so tricky after all.”

Jin Yan stood to the side the whole time, not daring to breathe a single breath.

Damn, this is too brutal. He kills people just because they disturbed his rest?

Good thing I listened to Brother Dog and diligently guarded this backyard, otherwise if that had hit the roof just now, I would be the one dead.

Jin Yan secretly rejoiced, glad that he had taken it seriously just now.

Littering and polluting the environment—that guy just now seemed to have eaten two legs. Xiao Fan, adhering to the principle of recycling, threw the remaining remains to Jin Yan.

“Here you go, eat it if you want.”

Facing the heaven-sent ingredients, Jin Yan beamed with joy and swallowed them immediately.

Killing people without cause is indeed brutal, but if the killed are ingredients, then Xiao Fan is still a pretty good person.

Jin Yan thought so.

Jin Yan didn’t forget to thank Xiao Fan, thanking his Master for the reward.

The more respectful one is, the more Thank you will come; great progress.

Looking at Lin Yu fighting fiercely outside the dome, Xiao Fan smiled slightly, “Keep fighting slowly, I’ll take care of your sister and aunt for you.”

Following the direction in the man’s memory, Xiao Fan flew away. His strength was already powerful enough that he could reach his destination in a single thought.

He was still wondering what reason he could use to approach Lin Yu’s sister and aunt, but he hadn’t expected to arrive and immediately have a chance for a hero to save the damsel.

This kind of plot happening to a Child of Destiny, Xiao Fan found it cliché.

But if it happens to me, I only hope it’s like an old sow wearing a bra—one after another.

Xiao Fan didn’t make a move but returned to pick up Jin Yan, the lighting technician.

The entrance must be perfect, ideally striking the girl’s heart with one blow.

It’s time to show some real skill.

“Come here, play a scene with me. If you do well, I’ll give you extra drumsticks.”

Jin Yan didn’t understand why, but he didn’t need to figure it out; he just needed to follow orders.
