I, the Destined Villain, Start by Controlling the Saint

Can’t gather together, the arrogant Ye TianLuo Ruyan was free; Spring Breeze Pavilion dared not keep her any longer.

Luo Ruyan was targeted by three parties: Yaochi Immortal Palace, the Wang Family of Creation Immortal Domain, and the Saint Academy of Eternal Immortal Domain. The struggle between these three major powers was something Mystic Bliss Convent, a Green House, could not possibly interfere with.

Without Xiao Fan needing to speak, Miao Ling tactfully allowed Luo Ruyan to leave with Xiao Fan.

As for buying her freedom? That was something only ordinary people needed. Miao Ling saw that Luo Ruyan’s charm had blossomed and, coupled with Xiao Fan staying in her private courtyard for a month, it was clear that Luo Ruyan had become his woman.

Inside the private courtyard, Miao Ling paid a visit, saying she felt it was inappropriate for Ruyan to stay in such a place of pleasure.

”I believe that a beauty like Ruyan should belong to Young Master.”

She saw Luo Ruyan and Xiao Fan were intimately close, with subtle gestures that only lovers would make.

Xiao Fan raised an eyebrow and said, ”Do I really not need to pay a ransom? Why do I feel like I’m taking advantage of someone?”

”No, I just genuinely feel that Ruyan is suited to be with Young Master, not here.”

As much as Miao Ling cherished Luo Ruyan before, she now wanted to let her go, seeing her as a hot potato.

”Then I shall relieve the Miao Ling’s worries and take Ruyan with me,” Xiao Fan said softly, embracing Luo Ruyan.

”Thank you, Young Master,” Miao Ling chuckled, feeling a sense of relief.

She was very tactful. After saying this, she wisely left, not disturbing the two.

Luo Ruyan looked at the scene, feeling a bit emotional.

Previously, many people brought large amounts of Immortal Stone and Heaven And Earth Treasure to Miao Ling, just to meet her, let alone buy her freedom.

Now, she was actively letting go and giving herself to Xiao Fan.

The change was too great, and she felt a bit emotional; everything was a result of strength.

”What, you seem to have something to say?” Xiao Fan gently pinched her baby-faced cheek, looking at the beauty reclining in his arms.

Luo Ruyan smiled and said, ”Nothing, I just feel that Miao Ling is so easy to talk to; it’s the first time I’ve seen it in so long.”

”Haha,” Xiao Fan laughed loudly, ”She’s a smart person. She knows her own strength. Having you now wouldn’t bring any benefits; on the contrary, it would bring endless trouble.”

”You don’t need to feel indebted. She didn’t have good intentions either; she just used you as a favor to give to me.”

”She should even thank me for taking you in. Otherwise, if something happened to you, she wouldn’t have any peace.”

”Mhm.”

Xiao Fan took Luo Ruyan away. Of course, he wouldn’t take Luo Ruyan back to Yaochi Holy Land. Women, once gathered, would have their own schemes and infight for favor.

He didn’t want such things to happen.

Moreover, by scattering his women, they wouldn’t be able to unite against him; they would only think about when he would arrive.

This way, they would only try to please him, hoping he would stay with them longer.

A woman’s heart is like a needle at the bottom of the sea. Although Xiao Fan didn’t doubt his women’s loyalty, infighting for favor when gathered together was an unavoidable female nature.

Xiao Fan planned to buy a luxurious mansion for Luo Ruyan in Eternal Immortal City for her cultivation, so he would also have a place to be alone with her when he visited.

Actually, he didn’t spend any Immortal Stone, because this mansion was prepared for him by Xin Xi.

Although he might not necessarily live there, Xin Xi didn’t consider such things.

Even if he only stayed for one day, this mansion had to exist forever.

”It’s somewhat sinful to use something prepared by one woman to support another. I’m truly a beast.”

Xiao Fan felt a little guilty; Xin Xi was truly good.

Looking at the vast, luxurious, and grand Immortal City mansion, Luo Ruyan’s small mouth was slightly agape, dumbfounded. This environment was simply heaven and earth compared to her small private courtyard.

Originally, she thought the small private courtyard in Spring Breeze Pavilion was the most perfect mansion in her heart, but seeing the place Xiao Fan brought her to, her worldview was once again refreshed.

”Even a Golden Immortal Realm Cultivator can’t afford this mansion, can they?” Luo Ruyan said, somewhat surprised.

Visible divine materials, tangible Immortal Qi and Dao rhyme, a pill room, an artifact pavilion, cultivation secret rooms, and a scripture pavilion with countless books. Behind it was a lake tens of thousands of miles wide, as if the entire ocean had been brought in?

To the west of the mansion, there was also a medicinal field. The entire mansion was well-arranged and fully equipped, almost a perfect Small World, a miniature version of a Sect.

And all of this was for her alone!

How could this not shock her?

Xiao Fan didn’t feel anything special. With Xin Xi and Yu Yue’s Realm, creating a world within their palm was not an issue. They had put a lot of effort into transforming the mansion like this.

”This, is this our future residence? It’s a bit too big,” Luo Ruyan exclaimed.

From the outside, it looked like just a relatively luxurious mansion, but upon entering, she found it contained a hidden universe, truly a blessed land.

”Heh heh, not ’ours’, but ’yours’.”

”From now on, you’ll live here. If you need anything, tell the people of Yaochi Immortal Palace. All you need to do is improve your cultivation, the stronger the better, and then, get all cleaned up and wait for me to return.”

Xiao Fan said with a light chuckle.

Luo Ruyan rolled her eyes at him. Couldn’t he be a bit more serious?

But her heart was very sweet. He arranged such a good mansion for me, which shows how important I am to him.

”Such a large mansion, it feels a bit lonely without people,” Luo Ruyan said. She hadn’t seen a single person since entering.

”Simple.”

Xiao Fan directly summoned Hells Gate and selected ten female Demon Gods from within, all of them in the Taiyi True Immortal Realm.

He enlightened them, forming Primordial Angels.

Besides that, he also summoned hundreds of Golden Immortal Realm female Demon Gods and thousands of True Immortal Realm female Demon Gods, all of whom he enlightened to become Primordial Angels.

They would serve as guards for the mansion.

Luo Ruyan was stunned. This...

She saw the scene inside Hells Gate: billions of Demon Gods, almost as countless as seawater, each one fierce and formidable.

But in front of Xiao Fan, they were incredibly docile.

”His identity might be even more noble than I thought,” Luo Ruyan thought, overjoyed. This is great, my man is amazing!

As his cultivation increased, the cultivation of the Demon Gods Xiao Fan could summon grew higher and higher, and the number of Demon Gods he could control and enlighten also increased.

”From now on, you will guard the mansion and ensure its safety, understand?”

”Understood, Master.”

Xiao Fan then spoke to two of the most powerful Taiyi True Immortal Taigu Female Angels: ”You two will serve as Ruyan’s personal bodyguards from now on. Your lives may be forfeit, but she must not be harmed.”

”Yes, Master.”

”Good, go.”

As soon as Xiao Fan finished speaking, all these people disappeared, appearing in every corner of the mansion the next moment.

Luo Ruyan’s beautiful eyes, filled with passion and tenderness, gazed at him, almost solidifying.

She felt she had received immense favor. Xiao Fan’s trickery in taking her virginity was even glorified as a courageous way to pursue love.

With such a wealthy and powerful man treating her so well, what more could she be dissatisfied with?

Everything in this mansion was something she might not obtain even after cultivating for a hundred thousand, a million years, or even until death. Yet now, with a single word from this man, all of it was hers.

This wasn’t her fault; after all, how could a small Ascension Cultivator, at the mercy of others, not be bewildered when receiving such immense favor?

”Thank you, you’re so good to me,” Luo Ruyan said, deeply moved, and offered him a fragrant kiss.

...

After settling Luo Ruyan, Xiao Fan returned to the Yaochi Immortal Palace’s outpost in Eternal Immortal City.

As soon as Zhao Linger saw Xiao Fan return, her fiery temper immediately flared up. She cursed and grumbled:

”You scoundrel, what’s with leaving me here?”

”And where did you go? You were gone for almost two months! Did you go to a Green House to have fun!”

She was furious. He went out to have fun, but made her stay here, and even had people watch her, not letting her leave.

You really do all sorts of bad things!

Xiao Fan glanced at her indifferently, not caring.

He merely said, ”Is this the attitude a maid should have?”

”You!” Zhao Linger said angrily.

”Or are you saying you don’t want to be a maid and are looking for an excuse to go back on your word?”

”You’re the one going back on your word! Your whole family goes back on their word! This Young Miss is the most trustworthy!” Zhao Linger said displeasedly.

”Then that’s settled. I am your Master. Do you, a maid, have the right to question where I go?”

”I!”

Zhao Linger was speechless.

Who was so stupid as to suggest fighting him in the first place?

Xiao Fan ignored her. A maid should act like a maid.

He turned to find the Female Elder of Yaochi Holy Land and told her about his plans to Breakthrough, asking if there was anything he needed to pay attention to.

”There’s nothing particularly special to note about a Human Immortal Realm Breakthrough. You just need to prepare Immortal Pills for healing and restoring Origin Qi during the Undergoing Tribulation,” the Female Elder said.

”Is that all?” Xiao Fan asked.

”Yes, before reaching the Taiyi Realm, Heavenly Tribulations won’t be very strong. This is the experience of our Immortal Palace’s Disciples and Elders during their Breakthroughs.”

”Young Master can take a look.”

Saying that, the Female Elder handed a scroll of scriptures to Xiao Fan.

”Okay.”

After all, it was his first time Undergoing Tribulation in the Immortal Realm, and Xiao Fan had no experience, so he still needed to be careful.

Meanwhile, Zhao Linger was completely dumbfounded.

No, you’re Undergoing Tribulation?

Thinking that he could already easily defeat her at the Human Immortal Realm, if he Undergoing Tribulation, would he be able to pin her down with just one finger?

”Little Maid, prepare some Immortal Pills for me,” Xiao Fan said with a smile.

...

While Xiao Fan was preparing to Undergoing Tribulation, Ye Tian also returned to the Saint Academy.

Along with him, the news of Ye Tian’s great battle with Wang Teng and his defeat of Wang Teng also spread.

”Senior Brother Ye, how did you do it? That Wang Teng’s Realm is higher than yours, and he can even kill enemies across Realms. You actually defeated him, that’s amazing!”

”Senior Brother Ye, can you fight ten?”

”Nonsense! Who are you looking down on? Senior Brother Ye can fight a hundred!”

Although Ye Tian was a new Disciple in the Saint Academy and his Realm was only Late Stage Human Immortal, he was very powerful. He had even defeated Wang Teng, who was known as a Genius in Creation Immortal Domain.

No one dared to underestimate him. Some Profound Immortal Realm Disciples would respectfully call him Senior Brother Ye when they saw him.

Ye Tian found it very satisfying. He recalled how, when he first entered the Saint Academy, everyone looked down on him, stepped on him, and mocked him.

Now, everyone called him Senior Brother Ye.

”Heh heh, what is Wang Teng? My goal has never been him. It’s just that he was blind and had to run into my fist.”

”What I want to do is become a Saint and lead our Eternal Immortal Domain Saint Academy to defeat other Saint Academies and become the strongest Saint Academy.”

”Let the name of Eternal Saint Academy shake the universe and resonate in every corner of the Immortal Realm.”

He made no secret of his goals.

Because he already understood that after his battle with Wang Teng, his reputation was thoroughly established.

If becoming a core Disciple before only brought him fame within the Saint Academy,

then now, after defeating Wang Teng, his name as a Genius had truly spread throughout the various Immortal Domains.

At this time, he had to be ostentatious, not appear calm or hide his strength.

Because a Disciple who appeared too calm would instead make people wary. He understood human Heart-Nature well; only an arrogant Genius could make people feel at ease.

This could be considered a protective color he put on for himself.

These words, falling into the ears of the Saint Academy Disciples, only made them feel that Ye Tian was arrogant and spirited.

But when they reached the ears of the Elders and Saint Lord of the Saint Academy, they subtly shook their heads.

”This child’s Heart-Nature is not good; he cannot bear great responsibility.”

”Arrogant, too arrogant! How vast is the Immortal Realm? Defeating a mere Wang Teng, and he dares to treat all heroes in the world as nothing. Such a Heart-Nature will surely lead to defeat due to arrogance.”

”His talent is indeed good, but he seems a bit naive.”

Many Elders lost interest in him upon hearing this.

The other five core Disciples had various thoughts.

”Ye Tian is so arrogant?”

”A person from the Lower Realm, a frog at the bottom of a well. Defeating a Wang Teng, and his tail is already wagging in the sky.”

”Heh heh, I even considered him an opponent. What a waste of thought.”

”Now it seems this Ye Tian is merely a frog at the bottom of a well, who accidentally caught a glimpse of the sky.”

Four of the Disciples scoffed at Ye Tian’s remarks, subtly feeling contempt.

However, one of them was secretly vigilant.

Between green mountains and clear waters, there was a quiet bamboo forest courtyard. Inside, a young girl was drinking tea and bathing, looking at the information reported by her subordinate.

Her beautiful eyes slightly narrowed, and a serious expression appeared on her pretty face, within her dark blue pupils.

”There’s a problem, a big problem.”

”A Genius from the Lower Realm absolutely cannot have such a poor Heart-Nature, otherwise he wouldn’t have grown at all.”

Her maid said, ”Young Miss, is something wrong?”

”Heh heh heh, if I’m not mistaken, this guy is probably pretending to be stupid.”

”It’s so obvious, does no one really see it? I’m starting to doubt everyone else’s intelligence.”

”Order my subordinates to pay more attention to Ye Tian. Only I can become the Saint of the Saint Academy. Anyone who stands in my way must be eliminated.”

”Understood.”

The maid retreated.

Warm steam and misty fog, half-concealing, half-revealing, the young girl stood up. Although she hadn’t fully matured, her beauty, capable of toppling nations, was already taking shape.

Seeing no one around, she let out a soft ’meow’. From beneath her seemingly empty hair, two erect ears emerged.

Seven long tails, like a peacock fanning its feathers, appeared behind her. These tails were of various colors: red, orange, yellow, green, blue, and purple.

Her dark blue pupils, with a leisurely gaze, showed no hint of feigned delicacy, yet were incredibly alluring.

”Foolish Human Race, let this cat girl dominate you.”
