Chapter 49

"Wake up~~~ Hey? Wake up~~~"

At his ear was a gentle and charming voice, calling and whispering, as if it were the tinkling of wind chimes.

Wu Fan remembered that he had fainted after killing Wu Yuanhao. Could it be... a hero saving a beauty? No! A beauty saving a hero?

Even though his eyelids were incredibly heavy, Wu Fan still forced them open. He wanted to see the beauty who saved him with his own eyes and thank her properly!

Then...

Then there was nothing after that.

The person in front of Wu Fan was indeed a beauty, a beauty who was propping her chin up, exuding a lazy and alluring charm. But... beauty isn't just used to describe women!

At this moment, Wu Fan really wanted to say—The saddest thing in the world is not the distance between a flying bird and a swimming fish, but mistaking a eunuch for a beauty!

The little eunuch, Man Ning!

"You really can sleep! For a whole day and night! It really tired me out!" The little eunuch Man Ning somehow produced a small copper mirror, admiring herself from all angles, front and side, and then said coquettishly, "It's all your fault! I have dark circles now~~~"

Wu Fan: "...", so cold! Why did he feel a chill all over?

"Alright! Since you're fine, I'm leaving!" The little eunuch stood up from the bed, swaying as she walked to the door, and then turned back with a hundred enchanting smiles: "Don't forget what your godfather told you~~~ Otherwise, I'll kill you~~~"

Wu Fan: "...", what kind of eerie tone is that?

"Creak!"

The wooden door creaked, and the little eunuch Man Ning was gone.

[Inn?]

Looking at the surroundings, Wu Fan furrowed his brow.

"Ouch! Ahhhh!"

Wu Fan instinctively tried to get up to determine where he was, but as soon as he moved, his whole body ached terribly! Especially the tearing sensation in his arms, which made him break out in a cold sweat!

Glancing at the fine steel saber still in his hand, Wu Fan tried to let go but found he couldn't... he had gripped it too tightly. He could only wait for his body to fully relax before he could release it.

To avoid the pain, Wu Fan entered the "Great Villain Cultivation System," where he could disconnect his body from his consciousness.

"Ding! System update complete!"

"Ding! Congratulations, Host, for deepening your understanding of the essence of villainy. Your ruthless interrogation techniques are impressive and despicable. Reward: 500 villainy points. Please continue to work hard!"

"Ding! Congratulations, Host, for completing the four consecutive kills of the Shangguan family. After Chen Yu, Guo Ye, and Zhong Xiu, you've killed a big fish. The name 'Shangguan Killer' is indeed well-deserved. Reward: 3000 villainy points. Please continue to work hard!"

"Ding! Congratulations, Host, for grasping the essence of shamelessness. Recognizing a dead eunuch as your godfather is quite a feat! Reward: 3000 villainy points. Please recognize more godfathers!"

"Ding! The Host currently has a total of 12,300 villainy points."

The electronic chimes bombarded Wu Fan's ears. Listening to those words that seemed to be both contemptuous and praising, Wu Fan, even though he was used to it, still... still felt very awkward!

Sighing, Wu Fan said, "Let me ask something first. Is there any antidote to the Miaojiang insect poison?"

"Ding! The Miaojiang insect poison comes in many types. Please determine which type it is!"

Wu Fan patted his forehead, feeling helpless, lying on the ground in the system space, and said dejectedly, "Is there no universal antidote? A universal one! Damn it!"

"Ding! There isn't one."

Wu Fan, feeling helpless, shifted the topic, saying, "I feel you've tricked me. The internal cultivation technique I'm practicing doesn't match the Yuyang saber at all."

"Ding! Because the Host is too poor, there's no choice! In this world, the cultivation of internal energy is actually the simplest method. The upper limit is set, and at most, it can form various shapes. It's not very exaggerated. In this simple and brutal cultivation system, any internal cultivation technique can reach the final realm, but some require more effort and talent, while others are more refined, saving time and talent. 'Purple Qi from the East' is already a top-notch technique in this world's cultivation system. It's just that the Host's talent is too poor to unleash its power. As for the matching techniques, as long as the Host has enough villainy points, you can exchange for suitable techniques and then use the special 'Skill Learning' to master any technique in a day, and update them at any time."

After hearing this, Wu Fan put his hand on his chest and sighed, "Do you know? I'm heartbroken now! Not because you subtly called me a low-ability idiot. But... why didn't you fart earlier! It made me spend 5000 points on a low-level 'Rapid Learning' skill and apply it to that damn Yuyang saber, ahhh!"

"Ding! The Host was in a hurry at the time, and there wasn't time to remind you..."

Wu Fan: "...", are you blaming me? Blaming me? Blaming me?

After being depressed for a long time, Wu Fan did a fish leap in the system space, stood up, walked to the light screen, and reached out to search for something on the "Skill Page." Indeed, he now had a pressing desire to enhance his personal strength and had a lot of villainy points to use, but he had more important things to do!

After a long time, finding what he wanted, Wu Fan sighed deeply and muttered, "Damn, it's so expensive! It's almost killing me! Tsk tsk! I remember what you said? 'Grasping the essence of shamelessness, recognizing a dead eunuch as your godfather is quite a feat! Reward: 3000 villainy points. Please recognize more godfathers!' Is that it?"

"Ding! Yes, word for word."

Wu Fan nodded, pondering, and said, "According to what you said, recognizing a eunuch as your godfather gives you 3000 villainy points. Shouldn't I just go to Chang'an, where there are said to be 100,000 eunuchs? I could blow you up in no time!"

"..."

The system seemed speechless, unable to respond for a while.

"Ding! The system has discovered a major flaw that could lead to a system crash. Preparing for an update. Please exit the system as soon as possible! Please exit the system as soon as possible! Please exit the system as soon as possible!"

"Hey hey hey! I was just saying it casually! Hey! Wait a moment! Wait until I recognize 100,000 godfathers before you do anything... ahhh..."

His consciousness returned to his body, and the excruciating pain made Wu Fan scream.

"Clang!"

The knife he had been tightly gripping finally loosened after a day and night.

"Ouch!!!"

Biting his teeth tightly, Wu Fan struggled to stand up, not for any other reason, but because he was hungry and wanted to get something to eat.

But—

"Creak!"

The door suddenly opened, and a person in black robes and a hood walked in.

Wu Fan was startled and quickly reached for the fourteen-form saber box by the bed, but his weak and sore body made him fall to the ground.

"You've really done a great deed!" The hooded person lifted their head, revealing a scarred face. It was none other than Yu Xiang. She looked at Wu Fan blankly, her face expressionless: "Why were you exposed?"

Wu Fan lay on the cold ground, looking relieved, and after a long time, said slowly and angrily, "Because the Yellow Gate Guard Luo Yuan did the same thing as you!"
