Manipulating Everyone Against Protagonist

"If there's nothing else, I should go now. I have some things to do. Let's keep in touch," Yun Che said with a smile. After some idle chit-chat, he made his excuses to leave.

He didn't really have any pressing matters; he just wanted to make a brief appearance in front of Shen Qingqiu to avoid seeming too clingy.

"Okay…" Shen Qingqiu didn't say anything to keep him, quietly watching him leave.

…

"Mom, I have something to do, so I'll go first. Uncle Shen, I'll visit you another time," Yun Che said to Su Shanshan and Shen Feng in the living room.

"You're leaving so soon? Won't you stay with Qingqiu a bit longer?" Su Shanshan asked with some suspicion, knowing her son likely harbored feelings for Shen Qingqiu.

"There's plenty of time in the future, no need to rush," Yun Che replied with a light smile, then turned to leave.

…

Outside the Shen family compound, sitting in his sports car, Yun Che asked uncertainly in his mind, "System, is Shen Qingqiu currently an early-stage Transformation master?"

"Yes, Host. Shen Qingqiu is introduced as an early-stage Transformation master," the system confirmed.

Yun Che grimaced slightly, acknowledging the prowess of the first female lead. Many martial artists never reach Transformation in their lifetime, but Shen Qingqiu achieved it in just eight years, proving her exceptional talent.

"Seems my plan won't work…" Yun Che sighed. He had contemplated overpowering Shen Qingqiu, but considering her strength, she would surely retaliate if he tried anything.

"Seems I need to think of another way… System, did I change the plot just now?"

"Ding, you've altered Shen Qingqiu's first impression of the host. Awarding 2000 villain points."

Hearing the system's notification, Yun Che nodded in satisfaction. "What can I use these villain points for?"

"Villain points can be used to enhance cultivation, enter lotteries, purchase items, etc…"

"How many points to enhance cultivation?"

"To advance from peak Light Energy to early-stage Dark Energy requires 2000 points. Each advancement up to peak Transformation will cost 2000 points."

"Upgrade my cultivation."

"Ding, 2000 villain points deducted. 'Limitless Pure Yang Cultivation' upgraded."

"So this is the power of Dark Energy." A few minutes later, Yun Che opened his eyes, feeling the strength in his body. He had transformed from an ordinary person to an early-stage Dark Energy master in just half a day.

"What's Ye Chen's current cultivation level?"

"Ye Chen starts as an early-stage Innate master and quickly advances after arriving in Tianhai City."

Yun Che: ...…

…

Returning to Crouching Dragon Mountain Villa at 7 PM, the sunset painted the sky in brilliant hues.

"Young master, you're back."

"Dinner is ready, your favorite caviar," said a young maid as Yun Che entered the living room. The maid, named Ah Qing, wore a maid's outfit, her long legs wrapped in black stockings, exuding sensuality.

Yun Che paused, looking her over a few times…

After absorbing the memories, Yun Che knew this young maid was trustworthy. In the original story, Ye Chen fancied her but Ah Qing remained loyal, even following Yun Che in death after his demise. Sadly, the original Yun Che never understood her feelings.

"Thank you…" Yun Che gently patted her head.

"Ah… No… it's not hard work," Ah Qing stammered, her cheeks flushing with surprise and sweetness from Yun Che's unexpected intimacy.

Yun Che withdrew his hand, knowing he had time and shouldn't rush things with the young maid.

"Let's have dinner…"

…

After dinner, Yun Che stood by the floor-to-ceiling window in his bedroom, looking at the sunset, lost in thought. "I never thought I'd actually transmigrate… But entering the village, follow its customs. Since I've become a great villain, it's time for the chosen ones to meet their end!"

Having realized this, Yun Che felt a sense of clarity and enlightenment.
