I, the Destined Villain, Start by Controlling the Saint

Keep a low profile”Greetings, Saint,” Yu Yue and Xin Xi said respectfully when they saw Xiao Fan exit his seclusion.

Yu Yue’s perception was quite keen; she felt the vast aura emanating from Xiao Fan, and was rather surprised.

”Oh? Saint, your cultivation seems to have advanced again,” she said with a hint of pleasant surprise, as if Xiao Fan’s Breakthrough was something that made her happy.

”Huh? No way, Saint, you’ve only been in the Holy Land for half a year. At that time, you were still at the Golden Core Stage - Initial Stage. A Breakthrough in half a year is one thing, but now you’ve had another Breakthrough.”

”The Saint’s Genius is simply too strong,” Xin Xi also said with a smile.

”Just by luck,” Xiao Fan said with a faint smile.

The most shocked was none other than Su Yiyun. She knew very little about Xiao Fan, only that he was a Genius whose talent was strong enough to be parachuted in as a Saint.

But how strong exactly, she wasn’t clear.

Now she understood. Half a year ago, Golden Core Stage - Initial Stage, one Breakthrough in between, and now another Breakthrough.

So, this guy only took half a year to go from Golden Core Stage - Initial Stage to Golden Core Late Stage?

What kind of monstrous cultivation speed was this?

She couldn’t help but think of herself. With a good Family background, she entered the Qi Refinement Stage at three years old, and after all this time, she was only at Late-Stage Foundation Establishment, not even having formed a Golden Core.

Compared to Xiao Fan, it was like a firefly next to a bright moon, incomparable.

”No wonder this guy said we weren’t a good match; it actually makes a lot of sense.”

”Then what did he mean by telling me to pursue him? Was he playing with my feelings?” Su Yiyun’s thoughts ran wild, and she inwardly prayed not to be messed with.

Xiao Fan didn’t have as many thoughts as she did. He figured he had been in seclusion for a month, and this guy only had three months left, so she was probably anxious by now.

Good, let me see what you’ll do.

”Junior Sister Su, may I ask why you have come this time?”

Yu Yue and Xin Xi stood on either side, looking at Su Yiyun with hostility. It was this vixen!

Su Yiyun also found it strange. It seemed like this was the first time she had met the two of them, so why the hostility?

”Well, you said to come to you if I needed anything, so here I am.” With two outsiders standing nearby, she didn’t dare to be direct.

She could only make up a random excuse.

Perhaps because she was lying, her complexion was unnatural, slightly stiff and awkward.

Xiao Fan didn’t say much. Right now, conquering the female lead was very important and could not go wrong.

So, he found an excuse, ”Since Junior Sister has a request of me, I can’t very well refuse.”

”By the way, what was the matter again?” Yu Yue interjected abruptly, her gaze fixed on Su Yiyun.

Her jade hand, hidden beneath her fragrant, soft sleeve, was already clenched tightly into a fist, though a gentle smile still graced her face.

Vixen! Vixen!!

”It’s about an auction of ancient Secret Realm treasures in Feng Ning City. I thought the Saint might find it useful, so I came to tell him,” Su Yiyun said.

She came prepared, having already found an excuse.

Moreover, this auction of ancient Secret Realm treasures was indeed a real event.

”Auction?” Xiao Fan’s eyes lit up.

Martial arts world’s martial arts competitions for marriage;

Xuanhuan world’s auctions, appraisal events, Alchemy competitions, etc. These types of events have an extremely high probability of spawning a Child of Destiny!

He thought about the Villain Value; it seemed that when it reached 1000, new rewards would be granted, and it was already at 900.

Furthermore, from Xuan Ji Elder, he also learned that as a villain, he would be besieged by many Qi Luck Children.

Rather than passively react, it was better to strike first and take the initiative.

Xiao Fan said, ”Alright, I also wanted to see what treasures are at this treasure auction. Tell me the specific details.”

Su Yiyun explained the situation to Xiao Fan.

Recently, an ancient Secret Realm had appeared, and many ancient treasures were found within it. However, many of these ancient treasures were of unknown purpose due to their age.

Those who obtained these ancient treasures feared they would be useless and become dead weight.

So, they put them up for auction, hoping to earn Spirit Stones by selling them.

People who bought these items were likely similar to those who go treasure hunting in antique markets, relying on luck.

By purchasing ancient treasures at a relatively cheap price, one might unearth a great treasure.

Those who obtained ancient treasures of unknown purpose wanted to transfer the risk; those who bought ancient treasures hoping for luck wished to unearth a peerless wonder.

The demands of both sides complemented each other, and this ancient treasure auction was built on this foundation.

The more Xiao Fan listened, the more he felt it was right. Qi Luck Children could always buy treasures far exceeding their price at a low cost. The more unpromising an item was, the higher the probability they would unearth a treasure from it.

Then, a dramatic reversal would occur, making them look incredibly impressive again.

This auction would definitely spawn a Child of Destiny!

My villainous scythe is already eager. Child of Destiny? Just wait to be harvested, hehehe...

As a villain, it’s perfectly reasonable for me to harvest Qi Luck Children, right?

Although Su Yiyun was now a Saintess, her Family had been annihilated, so her foundation was ultimately insufficient. She needed to quickly increase her strength.

The Holy Land’s stipend had already reached her hands, and she needed to quickly convert it into power.

The treasures at this auction were undoubtedly the best choice for her.

Moreover, what if this guy got lucky and unearthed a good treasure, becoming pleased, and perhaps even returning the recording crystal to me?

Xiao Fan: ”When does the auction start?”

Su Yiyun: ”In seven days.”

Seven days? That’s quite a long time.

Xiao Fan, having just emerged from seclusion, also found cultivation a bit tedious and boring.

After all, I’m a second-generation immortal, and also the Saint of a Holy Land. Going out to sightsee and cultivate feelings with the Saintess is quite reasonable, isn’t it?

”Do you need to prepare anything else?” Xiao Fan suddenly asked.

”I’ve already prepared the Spirit Stones; we can depart now,” Su Yiyun replied, everything was ready.

Xiao Fan nodded. The next second, he summoned a middle-aged man, who was the Void Refinement Cultivator who had previously driven the purple-gold carriage.

”Young Lord.”

”Uncle Jiang, I need to go to Feng Ning City.”

”Understood.”

After a pause, Xiao Fan added, ”This trip is just for fun; let’s keep a low profile.”

”Low profile? I understand,” the middle-aged man named Uncle Jiang left.

The conversation between the two left Su Yiyun a bit confused. Was there something about traveling that needed to be kept low-key?

”Are we waiting for Uncle Jiang?” Su Yiyun could tell that Uncle Jiang was probably Xiao Fan’s Dao protector.

And he wasn’t wearing the Holy Land’s Daoist robe, so he was probably arranged by his Family.

”Yes, we need to wait a moment.”

Yu Yue spoke at the opportune moment, ”Saint, do you need us to accompany you?”

Xin Xi also nodded, ”Yes, Saint, Xin Xi also wants to go out and play,” she said weakly.

She directly took Xiao Fan’s arm, looking pitiful, and glanced at Su Yiyun from the corner of her eye, very wary.

Hiss!

Xiao Fan gasped, a soft, warm sensation came from his arm. This soft touch...

No, what’s going on? Are you also testing the cadres?

Xiao Fan detected something unusual, feeling as if it were a Shura field. His Junior Sisters’ attitudes towards him recently seemed to have changed.

From being mere attendants, they were gradually trying to claim him for themselves.

Moreover, their hostility towards Su Yiyun was simply too obvious!

The identities of these two sisters were not simple. Even the Inner Sect Elders had to bow and scrape to them. Being attendants was most likely just a hobby.

This was also why Xiao Fan hadn’t ’dealt with’ them; not that he didn’t want to, but he didn’t dare!

Stop right there!

Xiao Fan slowly withdrew his hand from Xin Xi’s embrace, though he felt a bit regretful.

He smiled, ”Yu Yue, Xin Xi, I’m going out to handle serious business. You two should stay in the palace and cultivate diligently. I’ll be back as soon as I’m done!”

Upon hearing this, their expressions stiffened slightly. They only said ”As you command” and said no more.

However, Xiao Fan could clearly feel that their hostility towards Su Yiyun had deepened.

After about a quarter of an hour, Uncle Jiang returned.

Su Yiyun initially found it a bit slow, but after seeing the situation clearly, she couldn’t help but look astonished and turn her head. She stared blankly at Xiao Fan and said, ”This is what you mean by ’keeping a low profile’?”

Xiao Fan nodded seriously, ”Yes, it’s quite low-key, isn’t it?”
