Chapter 4: The villain's plan for revenge

Chapter 4: The villain's plan for revenge

Hao's eyes opened wide, his anger evident. The situation had been calmed thanks to Elder Tian's talks, but now Fang Ryou had worsened it.

"Lad, don't you fear death?" Hao asked, his gaze directed at Fang Ryou, who had a smirk on his handsome yet punchable face.

"Death? It needs to pass through my grandfather before touching me," Ryou said confidently, mocking Hao.

Hearing that, Hao almost instantly stood in rage, slamming his left leg to the ground, causing cracks to appear in the esteemed room!

"You dare!" Chen Hao's voice roared, causing even the entire house to tremble.

Zhi Tian merely facepalmed himself at what Fang Ryou had done. As for the other Elders, they were startled as well, almost falling off their seats when the house shook.

"Old man, it's not good to be angry at this age," Fang Ryou didn't stop and mocked further.

Zhi Ning, watching and hearing this, questioned to herself, 'What is he doing?'

'Does he lack common sense or what?'

'If he had stayed quiet, then everything would have been so peaceful... why did he...?'

Hao's body was covered in a deadly aura, his killing intent evident.

"I am not a fool to attack just based on talks, but you have disrespected me today..."

"Speak, why are you so confident? Who do you have backing you!? Who is your grandfather!?" Hao asked, his voice loud.

However, Fang Ryou merely twirled his fingers in his ear canals and pulled them out, then blew away the non-existent dust.

"Old man, you don't even deserve to hear his name," Fang Ryou said.

"Yo—", Hao was about to lash forward, his anger uncontrollable, when Zhi Tian used sound transmission and informed Chen Hao.

"The patriarch of Heavenly Sky Sect, ranked 1 in the entire world..."

"That's his grandfather."

The moment Chen Hao heard that, it was as if the world under his feet slipped.

"You mean, the possessor of Heavenly Dragon Sword, the Sword God, Fang Xuan?" Hao asked back through sound transmission, and Tian merely nodded his head in confirmation.

Hao lowered his face in embarrassment, for he knew how mighty the Sword God was...

He had challenged him in a fight but lost in just 3 moves! That was the difference between a rank 7 and rank 1.

Chen Hao blamed it on the difference in cultivation, as it was the first time he had lost. He said that just because Fang Xuan was in the Immortal Ascension realm and he was in the Nascent Realm, he lost.

But the Sword God had none but just one word to say, "Pathetic."

Chen Hao's fame suffered damage ever since. Even today, he is not praised like he used to be – heck, if a Rank 90 and over rank 100 elders could talk to him without batting an eye, then one could only imagine how much his reputation had decreased!

Having nothing to say, Chen Hao decided that it was best to sit down. He took a step back, about to sit down when Fang Ryou did it.

"Pfft, what a coward…"

"Ryou! What is this behaviour?", Nhi Tian rose in anger, about to scold more.

"Elder I-", Fang Ryou wanted to continue and justify himself when Chen Hao spoke in the middle, "It's fine Tian, what he speaks is the truth…"

"…", All the elders remained mum, merely watching Hao's next step when all of a sudden, a voice called out to Chen Hao.

"Master… Master Hao!" An older lady with grey hair sitting atop her head and a bit of fat and chubbiness panted as she appeared in front of the main entrance, which was opened.

"Master Hao, young master Chen is awake," she said, wiping the sweat from her forehead as she had run all the way.

"What!?" Everyone in the room asked in unison.

"Hao, that's good news—" Nhi Tian was going to congratulate Hao, but his gaze turned to Chen Hao's seat; he only found it vacant.

The moment the old lady mentioned it, Chen Hao had instantly vanished from the room.

He was so quick that even the elders failed to notice his departure.

"So… this is the agility of a top 10," Nhi Tian gulped a large chunk of saliva as he leaned back in his seat.

"Killing your fiancée? Certainly, that's among the tasks you need to do, but..."

"Say no more, killing her will be the first thing I'll do," Bozo nodded his head, raising his hand to stretch.

"No, listen. You can't do it right now. You are suffering from Qi Deviation."

"What's that?" Bozo asked.

"Qi Deviation: Imbalance or disruption in the flow of Qi."

"In simple words, you are suffering from an injury that is blocking your powers. You will only die if you attack your fiancée."

But Bozo, hearing that, smirked and said, "Who said I would be fighting her head-on?"

"What?"

Silence enveloped the room, with only Bozo smirking.

"Don't tell me..."

"You will attack her from behind? Like a coward?"

"Coward? That Zhing Zong definitely deserves the title."

"Her name is Zhi Ning... and you are right. Just kill that bitch. I don't care... use whatever means you want."

Getting the approval of the system was indeed something!

"Aye, don't worry. I will do exactly as it is mentioned in the Goblin Code…"

"Huh? What?"

"Goblin code, 11th Fang: If anyone harms you, then repay them tenfold!"

"Nice! So what do you plan on doing?"

Bozo smirked alone in the room, his eyes ablaze with flames.

"Fufufu, Poison…"

The system was excited to hear his plan, but hearing the word "poison" almost made its excitement die.

[That's it?]

[You plan to kill her from get-go? What was that talk about ten times blah blah…]

"Hah, listen…"

"I will use a poison that won't kill her…"

[Wait, what?]

"Yes."

"I will use a poison that will make her skin rot, making her ugly."

[Wow...]

"She will look at the world... Everyone who adored her will hate her! Treat her like a bitch!"

[Haha, indeed.], the system kept imagining the scenes unfolding.

"Then the poison will snatch away her vision, making her only hear the ridicule. She wouldn't be able to determine who her friend or foe is!"

[Fantastic!]

"Finally, I will snatch away her hearing... The poor girl wouldn't be able to let go of the words she heard... It will keep tormenting her."

[Fabulous!]

"And only after she finally begs for death, I will turn myself, painstakingly, into her savior..."

"I will approach her, and be her god. Without me, she wouldn't be able to live..."

"She will fall in love!"

[Wait…]

"I will keep manipulating her, and in the process…"

"I will help her regain her hearing and sight... and finally, when she regains her vision for the first time, whom will she see?"

[You!]

"And that's when her heart will break, and so will my revenge... because I will kill her on the spot."

[…]

"Imagine the betrayal…"

"Imagine being killed by the person you love."

"Imagine the satisfaction! Hahahaha!"

[H-help… I think I am tied up with a psychopath…]
