I Transmigrated As A Three-Year-Old Villain With A Redemption System?! - Chapter 4:

Chapter 4: Digging Out the Supreme Sacred Bone

Su Yun muttered inwardly, “What did I even give up?”

He hadn’t really done anything—just revealed the evil technique he obtained. The Devour Heaven Demonic Art was powerful, but its side effects were absurdly terrible. A stimulant might be effective, but any sane person wouldn’t voluntarily ingest something so harmful, right?

Buzz!

A mysterious power surged outward from within, and for a brief moment, Su Yun’s body became translucent. But due to the illumination from the golden vertical eye, everyone assumed it was the result of a spell.

Although Su Yun’s soul and body remained unchanged, the obscure and indescribable source of his being was nourished by the universe’s purest spiritual essence. Every deficiency was filled, and every imperfection repaired.

The Dao Rhythm of Heaven and Man allowed Su Yun to merge seamlessly with the world, unbound by any environmental limitations. All things have flaws, but with Su Yun nearby, the Dao Rhythm of Heaven and Man could act as a bridge, continually repairing those flaws until reaching perfection.

In other words, Su Yun had become a walking manifestation of the Great Dao—a mobile aura amplifier. Everything around him would be enhanced. Any cultivation would be twice as effective with half the effort. Even in daily life, the Dao Rhythm would repair the body, strengthen it, and extend one’s lifespan.

“Not bad at all,” Su Yun thought happily.

He remembered how Xi Yaoyue had risked herself to touch the water of the Youlan Pool, been poisoned by Chaotic Poison, and even burned her Essence Blood for his sake. She had paid a tremendous price. At the very least, he had to do something to repay the damage she suffered.

Now, things were better. Just by lying nearby, Su Yun could help Xi Yaoyue recover, or even surpass her previous state.

Buzz!

The golden vertical eye swept over the scene, seeing Su Yun’s illusory image getting his bone extracted and then tossed into the pool. Shortly after, the Su family guards arrived and cautiously retrieved him. In just the time it takes to burn one stick of incense, Su Yun had acquired the Devour Heaven Demonic Art.

“It seems to have been a coincidence,” the golden vertical eye spoke in a deep hum. “This child has remarkable fortune—despite this disaster, he still gained a blessing.”

The eye swept over Xiao Qingchen again. It said nothing, but its pupil trembled faintly, as though mocking him with disdain.

Tears filled Xi Yaoyue’s eyes. “Astrologer, please save my son!”

A beam of light shot from the golden vertical eye, falling upon Su Yun’s small body. At once, a “Seal” character appeared on Su Yun’s left palm.

“I’ve cast a spell. In one month, the demonic technique will be drawn out. At that time, hand it over to the imperial court.”

The golden vertical eye spoke gently, then another ray of light swept over.

Steam burst from Su Yun’s body, instantly vaporizing the remaining water from the Youlan Pool. The twisted plants beneath him all withered away.

Xi Yaoyue became anxious. “Astrologer, my son…”

The golden vertical eye was silent for a moment, then replied, “He’s fine.”

Xi Yaoyue immediately bowed. “Thank you, Astrologer, for your aid!”

The golden vertical eye blinked with a look of confusion before vanishing.

“Strange… This child has no cultivation at all. Why does he show no signs of poisoning after falling into the Youlan Pool?”

A thousand kilometers away at the Star Observation Tower, the Astrologer stroked a chess piece and pondered. “Could it be that the demonic technique purged all the Chaotic Poison to allow itself to be inherited?”

“Heh. So be it. This child is indeed blessed by fortune. The Su family is about to birth a qilin child.”

Even before the steam had dispersed, Xi Yaoyue hugged Su Yun tightly, asking urgently, “Yun’er, are you alright?”

Su Yun weakly opened his eyes, called out “Mother,” and fell asleep again.

He had just gained two divine powers, and his body still needed time to absorb and adapt.

Seeing his complexion slowly grow rosy, Xi Yaoyue relaxed a little. Since he was only asleep, she felt reassured.

Suddenly, she stood up, her robe fluttering without wind, her body exuding a chilling aura.

She turned her head sharply, eyes filled with sorrow and fury. “You… You actually conspired with outsiders to harm your own brother!”

If the household guards hadn’t arrived in time, Su Yun might have drowned in the Youlan Pool. If not for the Astrologer’s intervention, Su Yun might have been unable to cultivate for the rest of his life.

Her own flesh and blood… had tried to kill his sibling.

Xi Yaoyue was furious and heartbroken.

The household guards shook their heads, whispering to one another.

“I can’t believe it. It was Eldest Young Master who harmed the Young Master!”

“He’s only three years old. How can he be this vicious?”

“The Young Master is so lovable—how could he do such a thing?”

“Too ruthless!”

“I knew it. The Young Master is kind, gentle, and well-mannered. How could he possibly hurt anyone?”

Xiao Qingchen’s expression changed drastically. “I have no brother. He’s not even part of the Su family!”

“He’s just an outsider—who cares if he dies!”

“Outsider?” Xi Yaoyue laughed bitterly. She couldn’t believe these words came from a three-year-old.

“In your eyes, Yun’er is an outsider?”

That was the child she had raised herself, one mouthful of milk at a time. Their bond had long surpassed blood.

She could never accept the idea that such a gentle child might end up as a lifeless corpse.

Lin Ying’er also looked grim. She never imagined things would unfold like this.

“Su Yun, you really are a jinx!”

“Why should I hand over my Devour Heaven Demonic Art, and even attract the Astrologer’s attention?”

An immortal-grade technique—even if it was demonic—was bound to attract attention. Why couldn’t Su Yun just behave?

Eyes red with rage, Lin Ying’er gritted her teeth and said, “Madam, Eldest Young Master is right!”

“He is the rightful heir of the Su family. He carries Su blood.”

“The Young Master Su Yun is just an outsider. He fell into the Youlan Pool—what does that have to do with the Su family?”

She was certain that Xiao Qingchen, being of Su blood, would inevitably be the final victor.

Even if the truth was revealed—so what? Would the Su family abandon its own bloodline?

In the end, everything would be downplayed and forgotten.

Xi Yaoyue’s gaze turned icy. She seemed to be deep in thought and said nothing.

Seeing this, Lin Ying’er thought she had struck a nerve and was overjoyed.

She continued, “That place was dangerous. And the Young Master insisted on going in.”

“Even if Eldest Young Master was wrong, doesn’t Su Yun bear any responsibility?”

“Besides, Su Yun’s Heavenly Bone has already been dug out. His Dao foundation is ruined.”

“Even with the Astrologer’s help in removing the Chaotic Poison, his future is already ruined.”

“Madam, you shouldn’t waste more of your efforts on an outsider.”

“Now that the Heavenly Bone is gone… Are you going to find a Sacred Bone for the Young Master?”

Whoosh…

Xi Yaoyue let out a long breath and suddenly laughed. “You’re right.”

Lin Ying’er was elated. Success! She’d persuaded the Su family matron!

She quickly turned to Xiao Qingchen with a look of pride.

Xiao Qingchen also smiled. This matter was finally settled.

Once they returned home, he must reward this sharp-eyed maid.

Xiao Qingchen steadied himself and said, “Then let’s return to the estate—”

Splash!

Xi Yaoyue lifted her hand. A sealing spell locked both of them in place.

In front of a Five Realms cultivator, a 2nd stage maid and a three-year-old child had no chance to resist.

Xiao Qingchen’s eyes widened in terror. “What are you doing?!”

A sense of dread surged in Lin Ying’er’s chest.

Xi Yaoyue said coldly, “You colluded with outsiders and stole Yun’er’s Dao foundation.”

“She was right—it needs to be replaced.”

“And this one of yours… will be the compensation for your brother.”

Xiao Qingchen was stunned. Then he roared in fury, “You dare—!”

Slash!

Xi Yaoyue flicked her finger. A hole tore open in Xiao Qingchen’s chest.

A brilliant, radiant bone was drawn out, glowing with dazzling light.

Mysterious runes were engraved on its surface—just one glance made one’s head spin.

“Supreme Sacred Bone—” Lin Ying’er gasped.

Xiao Qingchen’s eyes widened in horror. “My Sacred Bone—My Sacred Bone!”

Splash!

Xi Yaoyue pressed her hand down, and the radiant bone was implanted directly into Su Yun’s chest.
