Ascending the Heavens as an Evil God

A shut-in accidentally transmigrated while playing a dark R18 banned-cultivation gal game, and he brought this game panel called 《Evil God Cultivation》 with him… The cultivation of an Evil God requires him to go to the various planes’ dungeons to complete dark missions and finish daily evil events. “Evil Event triggered: Adopt the orphan Lin Yunyun.” “Lin Yunyun? Orphan? Old Wang, find someone to hit Lin Yunyun’s old geezer of a father with a car! Quickly, I’m in a hurry!” This is a story of an ambitious shut-in who, under the “persecution” of the portable game system, happily embarked on the path to become an Evil (human) God (scum).

Chapter 103: Orphan

"The champion of the Innate Realm category: Lu Wu. The champion of the Acquired Realm category: Lin Yunyun. They're all familiar faces!" Gu Nan looked at the results of the Martial Arts Competition in his hand and commented.

After Gu Nan's meddling, fewer people were now following the Martial Arts Competition, which originally attracted much attention.

It was because too many people died or were injured that day, and they all came from powerful backgrounds. In addition, over half of the participants withdrew from the competition, so even if someone won the championship, it still didn't mean much. Naturally, no one cared to follow such an event anymore.

"Young Master, will you personally present the awards?" Wang Dong asked cautiously.

Gu Nan was first appointed as a judge by Gu Nian. However, he was lazy and didn't even attend a single match, hiding here to sip tea alone.

Anyhow, the Evil Event's key condition was completed, so the result of the competition had nothing to do with Gu Nan anymore.

"Just find a random person to do it." Gu Nan waved his hand.

"Yes." Wang Dong nodded, but then he seemed to think of something. He hurriedly said, "By the way… Someone reported that Lin Yunyun used stimulant drugs during the match."

"Of course she used them! Or else she wouldn't even be able to fight any of her matches." Gu Nan said impatiently, "Just kill anyone who objects."

There was no doubt that Lin Yunyun had to take drugs before fighting a match. She must rely on this to relieve the pain, otherwise she wouldn't be able to fight at all.

Gu Nan had to take the Evil Event into account before and couldn't kill any participants. However, the event was about to conclude right now—he didn't have to worry as much anymore.

"Understood." Wang Dong nodded repeatedly. "I'll have someone handle that immediately."

...

After Wang Dong left, Lu Zhanyu appeared again.

Gu Nan asked with a surprised expression, "You still haven't left?"

Lu Zhanyu rolled her eyes. With Gu Nan's current cultivation, there was no way that he didn't sense her presence. He was clearly trying to drive her away…

"There is someone—if he inadvertently offends you in the future, please spare his life," Lu Zhanyu said quickly.

"Oh?" Gu Nan raised his eyebrows.

"He is our family's younger cousin…"

"What makes you think I'll listen to you?" Gu Nan raised his head slightly and smiled. "You have a grudge against this Lu Wu, don't you? You want to use me to kill him?"

Faced with three counter questions, any words Lu Zhanyu still wanted to say were immediately swallowed, and her face twitched a little.

'This fellow's paranoia is really… Does he consider everything from the opposite direction first?'

In reality, Lu Zhanyu really misunderstood Gu Nan. It wasn't that he considered things comprehensively; he was simply used to guessing at other people's intentions with the greatest malice.

Lu Zhanyu, who wanted to scheme a little but ran into a wall in one second, could only leave without another word.

After Gu Nan sat still for a while, the Evil God Temple in his head shook slightly.

「Evil Event completed: Martial Arts Competition. Total Evil Value earned: 10」

The Martial Arts Competition officially concluded, so the Evil Value reward was also paid to his account. The reward this time wasn't out of Gu Nan's expectations.

The difficulty of this event was neither high nor low.

The Martial Arts Competition only had a location and time limit. Everything else could be controlled by the player, which reduced its difficulty level.

However, he also had to search for the key figure in this event, and a Prodigious expert like Gu Nian also participated, so the difficulty wasn't low either. After an overall evaluation, he got 10 Evil Value.

In the next second, a notification regarding a new event notification appeared in the Evil God Temple.

「Evil Event triggered: Adopt the orphan Lin Yunyun」

"Lin Yunyun? Orphan?" Gu Nan raised his eyebrows slightly and shouted at the door, "Old Wang!"

Wang Dong hurriedly rushed in again, only to hear Gu Nan say, "Lin Yunyun's family still has a deadbeat dad, right? Find someone to hit him with a car."

Wang Dong didn't say much this time and merely agreed. Lin Yunyun's family was very poor. Killing an ordinary civilian was nothing to the Gu family.

"Young Master, Lin Yunyun also has an older sister…"

"Older Sister? How old?" Gu Nan asked after some thought.

"Seventeen."

"Oh, then kill her in the car crash as well. Too old."

...

In the white hospital, Lu Danze sat on the bed with an ashen face, an injury identification report in his hand.

The report said: "Fractured kneecap, unable to neutralize high-energy injury. Chance of recovery: low."

With Ruby Fish Star's medical technology, injuries like broken legs or fractured kneecaps were nothing. However, the power of shadows left behind by Gu Nan was resistant to many powers, which rendered most medical methods ineffective.

Thus, Lu Danze likely wouldn't be able to stand up anymore, becoming a cripple.

"Son of a bitch!"

Lu Danze punched the bedding hard, crumpling the paper report, but he still couldn't vent his anger.

To fall from a martial arts genius who might advance to Prodigious Realm to a cripple with broken legs only because of two kicks from that person…

"Why?! Why is that kind of scum Prodigious Realm? Is there still any justice left in this world?" Lu Danze clenched his fists with bloodshot eyes.

Just as he sat alone in the ward and roared wildly, a voice came from the side. "We can give you justice, but the question is, what can you pay in exchange?"

Lu Danze suddenly looked up and saw seven people standing in a row at the door of his ward. The first person was easily recognizable, because he actually had three hands.

...

No matter who died, the world would still continue on. Gu Nan's killing was enough to shake the entire Ruby Fish Star's upper society, but for ordinary people, this just meant that this year's Martial Arts Competition was shorter.

After the Martial Arts Competition concluded, the military was silent. It was said that after Hu Wei heard the news, she left Ruby Fish Star overnight. Nobody knew where she went.

Zhou Xuewen was sent to the hospital as soon as possible, but because his injuries were too serious and because of his old age, he died after struggling for three days.

The Gu family made no comment on this. They neither broke with Gu Nan nor stood up for him. It was as if they had become a mere spectator.

However, Zhou Xuewen had great influence in all sectors of society, especially in the martial arts and Daoist circles. Many of his disciples spontaneously organized themselves, publicly demanding that Gu Nan be punished.

Some of them marched on the streets, some blocked the door of the Gu family, and others ran to the Xu family to ask the Xu family's old man to "carry out justice on Heaven's behalf."

Naturally, this was useless. Politicians dealt with the protestors, and the Gu family and the Xu family would never pay attention to these people.

As for why no one went to Gu Nan directly… Firstly, no one was willing to court death, and secondly, there were too few people who knew him—Gu Nan's whereabouts were a mystery, and he was difficult to track.

But today was different, because Gu Nan finally appeared at a more public location.

[Capital Adoption Agency]

Lu Danze sat in a wheelchair on top of a tall building nearby, nervously watching the adoption agency downstairs. Beside him stood a blue-haired girl in fashionable clothes.

"That's him, no doubt about it!" Seeing Gu Nan's figure, Lu Danze quickly opened his mouth.
