Great Villain: Starting by Humiliating the Son of the Heavenly Fate

Chapter 54: The Bitter End of Lin Feng

"Hmph!" Jiang Chen scoffed, "You can think whatever you want. I’ve got you completely figured out, including your opportunities and even your future!"

"I can easily take everything away from you!" he declared confidently.

Jiang Chen, of course, wouldn’t reveal anything about Protagonists, Villains, or Heavenly Fate. After all, who knew if there were any exceptionally talented individuals with divination skills in the Immortal Martial World? If his secrets were exposed, his greatest edge would be revealed.

Lin Feng felt like a puppet, and that was exactly the effect Jiang Chen wanted.

"What?! You control everything about me?" Lin Feng gasped in disbelief.

"No, that can’t be! I, Lin Feng, am a heavenly prodigy destined for greatness! You can’t take everything from me; it’s impossible, absolutely impossible!" he cried out wildly, his whole being like a fiery beast, completely irrational.

With a fierce battle cry of "Die!" he resumed his relentless attacks on Jiang Chen.

Poof! Poof! Poof! Poof! Poof!

The mighty Burning World Raging Flames unleashed such tremendous power that they completely destroyed Jiang Chen’s cold qi. Countless fire serpents opened their jaws wide, lunging at him.

However, Jiang Chen was ready for this. With a quick step, he blurred into a ghostly image, disappearing from where he stood.

Boom!

The Burning World Raging Flames hit the ground, leaving a huge crater filled with flowing lava and volcanic glass.

"Ha! You’ve got some serious power, but sadly, you’re just not fast enough." Jiang Chen’s taunting voice came from a different direction.

Even after powering up, Lin Feng’s speed was only comparable to average cultivators at the Early-stage of the Mysterious Platform realm, like Zhou Ruiyu and Jiang Xingtai. While Jiang Chen was faster than all of them.

’What? He dodged it!?’ Lin Feng thought, shaking with frustration. His attack had used up a lot of his strength, and now it had been wasted.

"Hahaha!" Jiang Chen burst out laughing, "Lin Feng, you’re probably finding it hard to believe that I can anticipate your every move, aren’t you?"

"Well then, check this out!" he exclaimed, unveiling a large pile of spiritual plants. These were the treasures taken from Zhou Yihe and his team, which rightfully belonged to Lin Feng as spoils of war!

Blood poured out, drenching the ground in red.

"This can’t be happening..." Despite being close to death, Lin Feng whispered in disbelief. He even tried to summon the Burning World Raging Flames again.

However, Jiang Chen’s speed exceeded all expectations. The powerful Violent Tiger Power took hold, unleashing its force unrestrained. Lin Feng’s body shook violently, blood spurting from every orifice.

At the same time, a wave of intense cold qi spread, and a thick layer of white frost quickly covered Lin Feng’s body, clearly visible to the naked eye.

"I... won’t... accept this!" With these last words, Lin Feng fell into an eternal sleep.

Following this, a series of system notifications echoed in Jiang Chen’s consciousness.

[Ding! Congratulations on successfully killing Protagonist Lin Feng!]

[Ding! You’ve earned 7,000 points of Villain Value!]

[Ding! You’ve accumulated 5,880 points of Black Heavenly Fate Value!]

[Ding! You’ve acquired the Heaven-Defying Fate Changer, the Burning World Red Lotus. Would you like to use it now?]

Instantly, a bright crimson light emerged from Lin Feng’s body, shooting straight up and merging into the space between Jiang Chen’s eyebrows, where it was captured by the System.

As Jiang Chen listened to the continuous system notifications in his mind, a joyful smile appeared on his face. ’Seven thousand points of Villain Value! That’s impressive!’ he thought to himself.

’And nearly six thousand points of Black Heavenly Fate Value too. This means I’m sure to come across more high-level opportunities. Of course, it also makes it easier for me to fit into the villain’s role.’

’But I’m not worried about that. Facing the Son of Heavenly Fate comes with life-and-death challenges, but it also means incredible opportunities. Eliminating Lin Feng has earned me my second Heaven-Defying Fate Changer, the Burning World Red Lotus!’ he mused. Then, he turned his attention to the Burning World Red Lotus.

The Burning World Red Lotus was prominently displayed on the System’s main interface, impossible to miss. It appeared as a withered scarlet lotus, with only a single layer of petals, clearly indicating that many were missing. Moreover, it was covered in cracks, looking as if it might fall apart at the slightest touch.

Beneath it, a detailed description was provided: The Burning World Red Lotus was a remnant of a Demon Lord who had reached the Void Tribulation realm but failed in their attempt to ascend to the Fourth Step of the Cultivation Path.

This formidable being’s soul was supposed to have dissipated into nothingness, but by an extraordinary stroke of luck, a minuscule fragment of their soul essence survived, fusing with the remnants.
