Please, Expel Me! I Need to Activate My Villain System! - Chapter 11:

Chapter 11: How Dare You Covet the Nine-Turn Golden Body Pill?

“Zheng!”

A clear and sharp sword hum echoed across Jade Spring Peak.

Ye Chen stepped gracefully onto the peak, riding a Flying Sword. He stood tall and proud in a green robe, his facial features radiating an extraordinary and transcendent immortal aura.

Ye Chen cupped his hands and said warmly, “Disciple greets Master and Aunt. I hope all the Senior Sisters have been well recently.”

That aura! That appearance! That temperament!

He was clearly the Child of Destiny!

Qin Fan panicked inwardly. Brother System, don’t you dare play dead now! Save me!

Just as everyone returned the greeting, Ye Chen’s gaze suddenly froze. For today’s morning cultivation, that trash Qin Fan actually dared to sit in the chief seat?!

He sneered internally, That worthless trash with Five Spiritual Roots dares to sit in my place? No, wait… Yesterday, I stuffed Second Senior Sister’s undergarment into his robes. How is he still unharmed?

Ye Chen coldly snorted inwardly. Looks like during the time I was in seclusion, someone has forgotten their place…

He narrowed his eyes and activated the Strongest Heart-Voice System. [System, activate forced heart-voice broadcast mode!]

With that, his heart-voice echoed throughout everyone’s consciousness.

“Huh? Junior Brother Qin Fan’s Spiritual Qi is surging… could it be… the sign of a Golden Body?”

Feigning surprise, he reached toward his storage pouch and thought again, “The Nine-Turn Golden Body Pill Master gave me is suddenly missing! Could it be…”

“Last night, I sensed someone sneaking around outside my Cultivation Residence. It must’ve been Junior Brother Qin Fan who stole it!”

His heart-voice continued, this time with a tone of tolerance and compassion. “Forget it… since he needs it, let him have it. It’s not easy for Junior Brother Qin Fan to cultivate… I just hope this pill can help him reach Foundation Establishment sooner.”

Hearing Ye Chen’s heart-voice, Xia Qingyue trembled.

She had indeed noticed something strange about Qin Fan. A faint golden radiance circulated around his body—something a cultivator in the Qi Refining Realm should never have. Could it really be as Senior Brother Ye Chen said?

Immortal Yuquan’s expression darkened instantly, fury boiling within him. This wicked disciple dared to steal Ye Chen’s pill?

Aunt Xiao Hongling’s eyes blazed with anger, though she said nothing yet.

The Senior Sisters all looked at Qin Fan with disgust and were about to explode in outrage.

Immortal Yuquan raised his hand slightly to silence them.

He forcibly suppressed his rage and asked deliberately, “Ye Chen, the Nine-Turn Golden Body Pill I gave you—once consumed, your physical body would become as hard as metal and stone, rivaling the early Golden Core Realm. Why haven’t you taken it yet?”

A flicker of coldness passed through Ye Chen’s eyes, but his face showed guilt. “Master, it’s my fault. I was careless and lost the pill.”

“What?!” Immortal Yuquan feigned fury. “That was a third-grade Spirit Pill I shamelessly begged from Huangshi Peak!”

Ye Chen lowered his head in mock shame. “Disciple is guilty. Please punish me.”

Whoosh! A dozen pairs of eyes pierced through Qin Fan like sharp swords, as if they wanted to skin him alive.

Qin Fan looked dumbfounded. He touched his face. What’s going on? Do I have something on my face?

Suddenly standing up, he thought, This is bad. Even without thinking too hard, I can tell… that bastard Ye Chen must’ve used the Strongest Heart-Voice System to confuse everyone!

Too bad I can’t hear his heart-voice! Looks like hiding isn’t an option anymore. I have to confront this head-on.

He shouted, “Why are you all looking at me like that?! I didn’t steal anything…”

Xia Qingyue’s eyes instantly reddened. “Junior Brother Fan… if you needed a pill, you could’ve asked me. I wouldn’t have refused. Why must you…”

“Pa!”

Xiao Hongling drew her Crimson Flame Whip. “Wicked child! Still denying it?! If you affected your Senior Brother’s cultivation, what crime should you bear?”

Su Meier and Leng Qingshuang glanced at each other, disappointment flashing in their eyes.

Only Lin Xiaolu tilted her head and mumbled, “Weird… wasn’t Junior Brother Qin Fan acting crazy the whole day yesterday? He doesn’t seem like a thief…”

What the hell…

Looking at the crowd suddenly accusing him, Qin Fan had a flash of inspiration. He spread his hands with a helpless look. “Fine, fine. Whatever Senior Brother Ye Chen says must be right. Since Master, Aunt, and all the Senior Sisters believe it… I admit it! The pill, yeah, I stole it!”

“Junior Brother Qin Fan, how could you say such a thing?” Ye Chen shook his head, his face full of sorrow, though inwardly he was startled. That trash actually admitted it?! Where did he get the guts to do that? He’s like a different person!

Pretending to be magnanimous, Ye Chen waved his hand, “Since Junior Brother has confessed, let’s leave it at that. From now on, we’re neighbors. If there’s anything you don’t understand in cultivation, feel free to ask me.”

“So that’s what happened!” The disciples suddenly realized and murmured among themselves.

“Senior Brother Ye Chen lives in Cave Residence A1, and Qin Fan just moved into A2 last night…”

“And in just one night, he did something so disgraceful…”

“What will he do in the future?”

Qin Fan looked at the warm smile on Ye Chen’s face and sighed internally. No helping it. This was the charm of the Child of Destiny!

Brother System, I can’t escape… absolutely can’t escape! I’m either on the road to being humiliated by the Child of Destiny or already being humiliated.

Such is the fate of a cannon fodder…

Immortal Yuquan’s forehead veins bulged. He was truly in a dilemma.

This wicked disciple couldn’t be beaten, killed, or expelled from the sect. But if he didn’t punish him, how could he face the rest?

He gritted his teeth, suppressing his anger, took a deep breath and forced a kind smile. “Qin Fan!”

He clenched his teeth and said with forced warmth, “As long as you return the pill, I’ll pretend none of this ever happened.”

Ye Chen’s pupils shrank slightly.

What’s going on?

Normally, Master would’ve already pulled out the Discipline Ruler by now. And Aunt… how could she be this calm?

Back then, Qin Fan would’ve been beaten half-dead by now.

Ye Chen took half a step forward and said sincerely, “Master, please understand. Junior Brother Qin Fan must’ve acted out of desperation due to his stagnant cultivation. That’s why he made such a terrible mistake.”

He then added, “Please don’t be angry, Master.”

Every word sounded considerate, yet each one stabbed like a dagger.

Not only did he show off his generous heart before the whole peak, but he also solidified the accusation against Qin Fan. Most importantly, he could get system rewards for suppressing a small villain like Qin Fan.

Killing three birds with one stone—this trash Junior Brother was the perfect stepping stone.

Immortal Yuquan’s face twitched uncontrollably.

As the saying goes, comparison only brings pain.

Ye Chen was generous and gifted, while Qin Fan was vile and stubborn. Truly incorrigible!

“Wicked child!” he roared. “How dare you covet the Nine-Turn Golden Body Pill?! Hand it over immediately!”

Xia Qingyue quickly stepped forward to shield Qin Fan and spoke softly, “Junior Brother Fan, that pill won’t help you much. Take this Spirit Gathering Pill from me instead. It will also aid your cultivation.”

Qin Fan was furious. Steal? Steal your damn pill?! He felt more wronged than Dou E!

But what could he do? Ye Chen was the Child of Destiny, with that damn heart-voice system that manipulated minds at will. Just one carefully crafted heart-voice could turn black into white.

All the surrounding disciples joined in.

“Qin Fan, hurry and return the pill to Senior Brother Ye Chen!”

“Yeah, don’t be ungrateful!”

Qin Fan was so angry he laughed. “Hahaha! I won’t return it. What are you going to do about it?”

He sneered, eyes full of mockery. “If you’ve got the guts, expel me from the sect!”

Xia Qingyue’s face froze. Her eyes brimmed with deeper disappointment. She had thought Qin Fan was just too wronged and misunderstood. But now, he truly seemed beyond redemption…

She hated nothing more than thieves. Now, her heart wavered.

“Junior Brother Fan, why must you be like this?” she asked with a trembling voice.

“I’m already a thief. You’re still asking me why? Got kicked in the head by a donkey or something?” Qin Fan sneered. “If I said I didn’t steal it, would you even believe me? In your eyes, I’m just a despicable piece of trash. Might as well sever all ties now, how about that?”

Xia Qingyue bit her lip. Still unable to bear it, she stepped forward and said, “Master, there might really be a misunderstanding. Why don’t we investigate first?”

Immortal Yuquan flicked his sleeve and shouted, “The evidence is clear! What misunderstanding could there be? Qingyue, stop protecting that disgrace!”

He pointed at Qin Fan. “Besides, he already admitted it!”

“But Master…”

“Ugh, Second Senior Sister, you’re just too softhearted. You don’t even realize someone is taking advantage of you,” a female disciple couldn’t hold back any longer.

At that moment, a clear voice suddenly rang out.

“Wait! Isn’t there a Heaven-Mirror installed outside Cave Residence A2? Just pull up the recording and we’ll know the truth!”

Everyone turned toward the voice.

A woman in a green dress stepped out. Her beauty was breathtaking—it was Qin Fan’s Seventh Senior Sister, Zhao Wanqing.

“That’s right! Qin Fan must’ve snuck in while Senior Brother Ye Chen was cultivating and stole the pill!”

Ye Chen’s expression instantly turned extremely ugly.
