A High Spec Protagonist!

[In other words, you're just trying to make sure that you won't create an inner demon?]

"Basically... this trauma from 'Long Yu' is quite deep. As a child... he literally saw his entire village being mercilessly massacrated."

[But what if that "demon lady" wasn't the one who planned the attack on your village? I mean, who would care about mere mortals?]

[How can you know that it was her?]

"I don't care if it was her that ordered or not. The owner should bear the consequences of its errors or whatever since her group attacked the village." Long Yu dismissed the system.

[...]

"Besides... you should know about who did it. You're pretty much omniscient." Long Yu added as he looked at the panel with a faint smile.

[I cannot disclose that kind of information.]

"Hah... I don't need your help."

[About the inner demon, though, can't you simply buy pills to prevent it?]

"...If I had a Sacred Medicine Spirit Body, I'd do it."

[...]

[Nice try.]

"Regardless, I can obtain it if I truly want it. I'm just not that helpless; however, if I indeed get thrown into the depths of hell, I'll resort to it."

[???]

[What do you mean?]

"Ah...who knows?" Long Yu smiled misteriously.

He had found quite a few things about the system, and one of them was that it couldn't read his thoughts unless Long Yu himself allowed it.

After all, when he wants to talk with the system, he thinks about the process of asking the system something.

If he simply doesn't do that...

The system won't be able to know what he's thinking.

[What are you going to do now?]

"Get rid of this damned physique." He said nonchalantly.

[How?]

"Well... I'll create a 'protagonist' myself."

[...What...?]

With those words, Long Yu stepped into the city and walked around.

He started to appraise every single guy that was present, until one finally caught his interest.

He had a pretty average appearance, but he indeed had a pretty weird aura around him.

Not to mention his devastated face...

Protagonist Halo—Level: 9

Evaluation: A highest-level protagonist. Luckily enough, the Immortal Emperor is about to possess this body in a just a few minutes.]

'Oh~, just the classic 'Ye Chen' name...' Long Yu's lips curled into a smile.

Supposingly, Long Yu's best option was to kill him directly and absorb his protagonist's halo.

However, he had another plan.

"Little guy," Long Yu smiled faintly as he approached Ye Chen.

"W-what...?" Ye Chen replied with a weird face and tired eyes.

It seems that he has gone through a lot.

"Would you like to have an opportunity to become the strongest?" Long Yu continued, waving his hand, making both of them disappear from the streets.

"W-WHAT!?" Ye Chen hurriedly looked around in horror after disappearing from the city's streets.

He immediately became wary of Long Yu.

However, upon seeing his beautiful features, Ye Chen couldn't help but swallow hard.

Even with the blindfold in Long Yu's eyes, Ye Chen could feel that they were going to be extremely beautiful.

"Reply to me." Long Yu reminded Ye Chen of his words.

"Y-yeah... obviously. Since my childhood... I have always been a wea—!"

"Alright, enough chit chat." Long Yu waved his hand.

'I'm not in the mood to hear your entire backstory.'

"The reason I brought you here, is to simply give you that opportunity. To become stronger than anyone!" 

"R-really?" Ye Chen's lifeless eyes gained a string of hope.

"Yes. However, I will only give you a push. Now... come a bit closer." Long Yu tilted his head with a smile.

Hearing his words, Ye Chen slowly approached him.

Touch...!

And suddenly, he felt a finger touching his forehead directly.

"KEGUH!" He screamed loudly in pain.

"Endure it." Long Yu coldly spoke, which made Ye Chen clench his teeth tightly.

And this happened for a few minutes, if not hours. Ye Chen endured the whole thing while gritting his teeth and clenching his fists.

"Haaah!" Ye Chen fell into the group as the process was finally done.

"Listen, Ye Chen, what I gave you is called the Innate Yang Body; it's a divine body that focuses on the 'Yang' property. And don't worry; in just a few minutes, you'll understand how precious it is."

"After all... you'll finally come back..." Long Yu smiled mysteriously, disappearing from Ye Chen's eyes.

Ye Chen's eyes blinked twice, and suddenly, they widened as he found himself back on the city's streets.

"What... did he mean by that?" Ye Chen scratched his head.

However, he suddenly had a bad feeling...

CRACKLEE!

"ARGGGGHHHH!!"

Suddenly, a peculiar purple thunderbolt fell on his body, and Ye Chen immediately passed out due to the intense pressure.

The black clouds that had created the purple thunderbolt quickly disappeared after...

And a few minutes later...

"Ah!?" Ye Chen finally opened his eyes.

However... he was different.

He looked at his hands and clenched his fists, sensing an unfamiliar feeling spreading through his body.

"Argh...?!"

Suddenly, a flood of memories struck his brain, and in just that moment, seventeen years worth of memories passed before his eyes.

"I see now... I actually reincarnated..." Ye Chen clutched his fists tightly.

"Long Yu... I swear I'll fucking kill you!" He screamed inwardly, full of rage, even making his killing intent escape his body.

But he quickly calmed down, and a faint smile appeared on his lips.

"That guy... he seemed to know that I was going to reincarnate..." He said with a thoughtful expression after recalling the last moments before 'Ye Chen' was struck by lightning.

"However... now that I have an Innate Yang Body, things will become much easier! I'll definitely find him and repay the favor!" He said it with a determined tone.

Immediately, he hurried out of the city. He already had a few plans in mind, and knew exactly what to do...

Meanwhile...

[You fucked up.]

"Fuck, I don't need you to tell me! Besides, why the fuck didn't you warn me that I was the main villain in his plot!?"

[...Well, you didn't ask me to transfer you his plot.]

"Whatever! Just do it now...!!!"

[Yeah... here it goes!]

"Ah... I'm already used to this now." Long Yu sighed as a batch of memories reached his mind.

"Ahhh... seriously? I was besties with him, and then I betrayed him for power so I could take his position...? Seriously!?"

"It couldn't be me." Long Yu shook his head.

[...It was you... in another lifetime...!!!]

"Yeah, I get it, bruh." He scratched his eyebrows in annoyance.

"Either way, now I have a lot of places that I can simply steal... I'll let Ye Chen reach the 8th heaven, at least. I'll need him for that place. Thankfully, I didn't simply kill him directly." He sighed in deep relief.

"Now that I'm done with that physique... it's time to focus on Ice spells and swordsmanship." Long Yu stretched his arms.

He was going back to the sect...
