System is out to hurt me! But I can't take it lying down right?

Imagine being reincarnated in a magical world with martial artists capable of severing mountains, and dividing seas. A world where gods exist, and are deemed supreme and like to cause chaos. If one has a system bent on tempting then to become the biggest devil, to enjoy most of its benefits. The story follows Wang Lu's reincarnation and his journey in a new world as he struggles to retain what he deems as good about himself while taking benefits from the system. Wang Lu: "Villains die old, good people die faster! I'm such a good person, is this seeking death?" System: "??? ... You? A good person? Then everyone in this place is a saint!"

Wang Family men should keep their promises! let me help you!

Wang Lu was complaining, but still stood up, followed by Wang Xingyue towards the venue as fast as he could.

The information was very important, and he didn't plan on missing out at least he got in trouble because of it.

It was only half a year ago that he realized he had been wrong! Beyond this world existed gods! That was not all, from the information he had already read from the library, this world didn't have any so-called Immortals. The term was only used when talking about those that lived for as long as half a million years. The term was only used for the strongest existences in the world, and most of them spend time in a sealed state, to act as some back up for their factions, preventing it's destruction.

All the strongest factions had such beings, but they rarely appeared, because once they showed up, it was a sign of catastrophe. He was somewhat depressed upon learning of this, but he still didn't have the same thoughts about trying to be among some of those figures that have close to half a million years in lifespan, but the brainwashing in the hall was just becoming too much. He even wondered whether the Wang clan needed a special physique that badly? After all he had seen that special physiques came along with some constraints, and most of the owners had to be strong devotees of the god their physique fell under.

He already had a feeling that something was wrong, he might not end well if he was discovered to be an outsider. He thus had to do everything to avoid getting himself in the eyes of such beings, that are said to have been around for who knows how long. But he was already able to gain some information from the discarded historical records in the Library. Apparently the Special physiques didn't exist in some era in the past, that made him suspect that even the gods might not have existed then. But that was all his suspicions, they couldn't be proved.

As the two of them ran off, they could see the building in the distance, but Wang Lu frowned. He remembered that only he and Wang Xingyue spend their time on the cliff, and thus this middleaged man with a few disciples following him didn't have any good intentions. It was even so clear seeing as to how he had just blocked their path. Perhaps others children might not be able to see through this tricks, and think they met some uncle and cousins by coincidence, but he didn't believe in such things. This old thing was just waiting for him and Xingyue to arrive before showing himself.

But this was somewhat unexpected, after all he was just an eight year old. What would make an old man approach him? He already declared the man had ulterior motives, but didn't say anything or act in any strange way. He maintained his running speed and the Xingyue behind him didn't think much. He continued running until the old man finally called Wang Lu out.

"Little nephew Wang Lu!" The voice was not loud, but it was enough for him to hear. Since that was the case, he couldn't pretend not to have heard it. Perhaps avoiding will only make the old guy come again, as such it was best to see what he wanted. He didn't think the old man could dare do anything to him within the Wang clan domain. Since it was like that, then only one explanation was possible, the old thing was scheming something.

In the entire clan, he was not that important, but his grandmother also was, due to her strength and realm. Wait! He was! He had just remembered something he had overlooked. His grandfather mentioned that the men of their line had failed a certain senior, and he hoped this curse could end with him. But he had some suspicion, as nothing else of significance was mentioned later. He was curious about what the letting down he was talking about even was.

But he stopped thinking about this complicated things and looked at the old man with interest. He could feel he was Unfathomable, that was to his mortal self and the fact that his sensory ability had been magnified due to the cold pool. The same feeling came from the two kids about five years older than him behind the older man.

"Hello! I'm Wang Lu! You are?" He indeed didn't know this man calling him nephew from nowhere.

"Nephew Lu', I am your uncle, Wang Dazi!" The man introduced himself with a smile. He then turned around, as though he wanted to say something and then stopped himself.

"Are you going to join the classes?" He asked such a question, even after blocking their path?

When Wang Lu looked at him, deep down, he despised this old man for his poor acting skills.

He didn't loose his smile, and continued to further say, "Your cousins are also just coming to visit their parents! If you have time you should hang out together!"

Looking at the old man, he had a look of confusion on his face. Clearly looking innocent and naive! He then started to cry!

The cry was so loud, it actually attracted some eyes, "Uncle is a bad person! Wants to kidnap Wang Lu!"

The words he said as he cried while sitting down seemed dramatic. He really didn't think this old man was up to any good. The best way to deal with him was make him unwilling to approach him any longer. After throwing some tantrum, the old man and two kids behind him, he didn't know when they escaped. But the children that had been attracted to this drama didn't stop gathering. Wang Lu stood up dusted his clothes and backside, before pulling Xingyue towards the hall some distance from them.

When approaching the classroom, Xingyue asked, "Lu! What is happening? Why did you start crying back there?"

"Oh! That! It was nothing. I just wanted to scare that old guy away and make him unwilling to approach me!" He replied with a slight smile.

He indeed didn't like that Wang Dazi! Something about him was off. He might not be afraid of anything happening to him, but who knows about the future. He had to be crafty, and with what happened, even the old man had any bad plans, he might be incapable of doing anything now!

He already had realized that the Wang clan was far from harmonious as it looked on the surface.

*****

"Father! What is wrong? Why did you leave like that?" Wang Dazi's son asked after they had escaped further from the hall.

Wang Dazi's expression shifted slightly, before he replied without looking back. "That child is simply lawless! I haven't even said anything and he is shouting for help! Let's avoid him for now!"

Wang Dazi spoke in a stern tone, "let's not mention this for now!"

Only his face was angry almost contorting. "Since I can't decieve that kid, I should make him fulfill their promise. That would be considered in line with the nature of the man of the Wang clan. Besides, why do I have to do it myself? Kid! You can only blame yourself for not cooperating!"
