An Unexpected Turn: Villain Becomes Dad-Chapter 204

Chapter 204

“Hm? Another 1,500 VPs? Not bad, not bad.” A slight smile crept onto Yang Chen’s lips.

Junior Brother Xiao Dong must be feeling utterly humiliated.

Glancing at Xiao Dong, who was still kneeling on the ground, Yang Chen couldn’t help but click his tongue in amusement.

There was no denying it—Xiao Dong really did look like a dog in that position.

“Martial Aunt, please, spare Junior Brother Xiao Dong for my sake! After all, you wouldn’t want …” Yang Chen leaned over and whispered into Zhan Qiuyun’s ear.

Her beautiful eyes blazed with anger as she turned to glare at him, gritting her teeth.

“Scoundrel!” She genuinely wanted to slap this little rascal hard. This entire mess was his doing, and now he was even daring to threaten her.

How infuriating.

The next time he thought about touching her again, he could forget it.

Hmph.

Zhan Qiuyun gave a cold snort.

Then, with a sweep of her sleeve—Bang!

A blast of true energy struck Xiao Dong squarely, sending him flying.

Pfft!

Xiao Dong spat out a mouthful of blood.

“Hmph. Survive this strike, and consider yourself lucky!”

Zhan Qiuyun said icily before turning to give Yang Chen one last scathing glare, then vanished in an instant. freeweɓnovel.cøm

“Xiao Dong!” Chu Xi rushed over to him.

Zhan Qiuyun hadn’t used her full strength in the blow, yet if it had been anyone else—even a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator—they’d likely be dead by now.

But Xiao Dong, ever the destined “Son of Destiny,” still clung to life. His resilience was truly remarkable.

“Thank goodness, Xiao Dong is still alive!” Chu Xi breathed a sigh of relief, quickly taking out a pill and placing it in Xiao Dong’s mouth.

“Junior Sister Chu Xi, today’s events were entirely my fault! When Xiao Dong awakens, I’ll apologize to him! But please, don’t misunderstand—I and Martial Aunt were only … practicing a cultivation method.” Yang Chen offered in explanation.

After transferring a bit of true energy to Xiao Dong to aid the pill’s effects, Chu Xi gently laid him down and then stood up. Her eyes met Yang Chen’s, a soft, melancholy gaze.

“Senior Brother Yang, you … you don’t have to explain. I understand! And besides, I … I don’t mind!” Chu Xi’s cheeks flushed a faint red as she spoke. “As long as Senior Brother Yang doesn’t find me bothersome, I … I won’t mind who Senior Brother Yang … shares that kind of relationship with!”

Her voice trembled, broken by pauses.

Even though it hurt a bit to see Senior Brother Yang so close with Master, she knew deep down that someone as exceptional as him wouldn’t be bound to one person in the future.

What she hadn’t expected, however, was that even her esteemed Master, the revered Master of Youyue Peak, would share that kind of relationship with Senior Brother Yang.

Then, in the future, wouldn’t she and her Master …

Imagining that scene, a hot blush spread across Chu Xi’s cheeks.

“Junior Sister Chu Xi, you’re so understanding!” Yang Chen was genuinely moved.

He had thought he’d have to comfort her a bit, but Chu Xi’s kindness and empathy exceeded his expectations.

In this moment, seeing her face tinged with shyness yet laced with a trace of sorrow, Yang Chen opened his arms and pulled her into a warm embrace.

“Senior Brother Yang!” Chu Xi clung tightly to Yang Chen, her soft body pressing against him.

Her gesture conveyed her deep feelings for him.

Feeling the softness in his arms, Yang Chen couldn’t help but glance at the unconscious Xiao Dong lying on the ground. A sense of regret rose in his heart. If only Junior Brother Xiao Dong were conscious.

Sigh.

If he were awake and saw his sister in Yang Chen’s embrace once again, it would surely earn him another substantial amount of VPs.

Such a pity, indeed.

Two months passed in the blink of an eye.

Yang Chen emerged from seclusion, fully recovered from the weakness brought on by Zhan Qiuyun absorbing a large amount of his Origin Yang Qi.

His cultivation at the Sixth Stage of the Soul Transformation Realm was now completely stable.

During these two months, he primarily focused on comprehending the Pure Yang Sword Manual and mastering many powerful sword techniques.

The Pure Yang Sword Manual, crafted by the Pure Yang Venerable, encapsulated a lifetime of swordsmanship. To be called “Venerable” signified a cultivator at the pinnacle of the Dao Integration Realm, a title reserved for the most powerful figures in Central Continent.

Comprehending their swordsmanship could take an ordinary cultivator hundreds or even thousands of years.

But with his villain points, Yang Chen could accelerate his understanding.

In two months, he managed to grasp nearly forty to fifty percent of its teachings.

His swordsmanship had already surpassed that of most Void Refinement cultivators, with a sharp sword aura that could reduce anything nearby to ashes.

As he opened his eyes, the intense sword aura surrounding him gradually faded.

“Senior Brother Yang, you’re out of seclusion!” Chu Xi’s bright smile greeted him as she stood in the courtyard, her beauty so striking it could overshadow all the flowers.

Yang Chen’s lips curled into an amused smile.

Over the past two months, since Chu Xi had been busy caring for the heavily injured Xiao Dong and he had mostly been in seclusion, they’d only been able to meet once every two weeks.

And every time they met, they couldn’t help but share an intimate moment together. Although each time they were close to taking the final step, Xiao Dong would unexpectedly interrupt them.

Still, their relationship had deepened significantly.

For example, Xiao Dong had found traces of white stains on Chu Xi several times.

Despite his anger, Xiao Dong’s tolerance had gradually increased with each incident, reducing the amount of points Yang Chen could earn.

Lately, he only received 300 or 500 points, with the most recent encounter yielding just 200 destiny points.

This situation left Yang Chen feeling a bit helpless.

“Senior Brother Yang, the meteor rain is about to appear over the Fallen Star Mountains. The Holy Land has already gathered the disciples at the martial arena, so we should prepare to go! Master will also be coming along!” Chu Xi spoke, her cheeks taking on a faint blush.

In the past two months, her master had guided her in cultivation a few times. Yet each time, she couldn’t help but recall the sight of her master and Senior Brother Yang embracing, which made her imagination run wild, ultimately earning her several scoldings from her master.

“Fallen Star Mountains!” Yang Chen’s gaze fell on the faint purple star mark on Chu Xi’s forehead. It had grown even more prominent, enhancing her noble aura.

“Junior Sister Chu Xi, it’s been ten days since we last saw each other, hasn’t it?” Yang Chen remarked suddenly.

“Yes, it’s been twelve days,” Chu Xi nodded. She remembered every single day of separation from her Senior Brother.

Yang Chen stepped closer to her and gently tousled her hair.

“Junior Sister Chu Xi, I missed you.”
