The Villain Awakens the Supreme System and Plunders the Chosen One’s Fate - Chapter 2:

Chapter 2: The Cute Loli Sword Spirit, Forced to Acknowledge a Master

Gu Lingxiao held the Heavenly Supreme Sword and examined it carefully. Meanwhile, Ye Han, who had lost control, collapsed weakly onto the ground.

Cold sweat soaked his entire body. Only now did Ye Han truly realize the vast gap in strength between them.

In front of Gu Lingxiao, he had no ability to resist.

Even the mysterious divine sword that had always accompanied him had been discovered and taken away by Gu Lingxiao.

This filled him with both rage and fear.

From a remote and impoverished place, he had risen step by step to the center of this world. No matter how powerful the experts he encountered were, none had ever seen through the divine sword hidden within him.

Yet Gu Lingxiao had not only seen through it at a glance, but had also stripped it from his body in less than a minute.

The sword spirit within the divine sword had been his greatest support since he began cultivating.

The sword spirit taught him cultivation, saved him from life-and-death crises using the divine sword’s power, and occasionally chatted with him during quiet moments.

Most of Ye Han’s life had involved the sword spirit. He could not accept losing her.

“Give it back to me!!!”

At that thought, overwhelming anger surged through his entire body.

Ignoring the difference in strength, he roared furiously at Gu Lingxiao.

“Give it back to you? Hmph!”

Gu Lingxiao sneered.

Sensing danger, the Heavenly Supreme Sword began trembling.

Although it was an ancient divine artifact, it had not yet been activated and could not escape Gu Lingxiao’s grasp.

As for the sword spirit inside, she was completely suppressed by Gu Lingxiao and could not leave the sword or communicate with Ye Han.

“Today, I obtained a divine artifact. I won’t bother arguing with trash like you. Get lost.”

Gu Lingxiao waved his hand casually, as if dismissing garbage.

But Ye Han refused to accept this. Clenching his fists tightly, he stared at Gu Lingxiao with hatred, wishing he could tear him apart.

“If you want to die, I can grant your wish!”

“No!!”

A clear and sweet loli voice accompanied by a sword cry echoed from the Heavenly Supreme Sword.

Gu Lingxiao knew this was the sword spirit speaking.

However, since she was suppressed inside the sword and unable to leave, only Gu Lingxiao could hear her voice.

Gu Lingxiao sneered and, with a single thought, twisted the surrounding laws of time, causing time around him to temporarily stop flowing.

“Heavenly Supreme Sword Spirit, Lingyue.”

Gu Lingxiao spoke her name, causing Lingyue’s heart to sink.

She was not some famous figure, yet this person knew her name. This meant his abilities far exceeded her expectations.

“I am Lingyue. May I ask if Senior can spare Ye Han’s life?”

A small loli phantom emerged from the Heavenly Supreme Sword.

Her snow-white, delicate skin and exquisite features made her look like a lovely porcelain doll.

With white hair, red eyes, and a childlike face, she did not resemble an ancient being who had lived for hundreds of thousands of years, but rather an adorable little girl.

However, her eyes lacked the carefree innocence of a child. Instead, they were filled with sorrow.

“Yes, of course. As long as you agree to my condition, sparing Ye Han is naturally possible.”

“May I ask what condition Senior has?”

Lingyue felt uneasy. She did not know what this terrifyingly powerful young man would demand.

After all, she was only a sword spirit and had little to offer.

“Acknowledge me as your master. Completely and absolutely.”

“This…”

Lingyue instinctively wanted to refuse.

As the sword spirit of the Heavenly Supreme Sword, she had always been proud.

But the terrifying aura emanating from Gu Lingxiao made her realize something.

If she refused, Ye Han would die.

Even she and the Heavenly Supreme Sword might not end well.

“Senior…”

Lingyue’s voice carried a hint of pleading.

“And as far as I know, your identity is not as simple as being the Heavenly Supreme Sword Spirit.”

“I don’t understand what Senior means…”

“Still pretending? Gu Lingyue.”

Gu Lingxiao spoke calmly.

As the Golden Finger of the Son of Destiny, Lingyue’s identity was far from simple.

She was a descendant of the ancient Gu Clan. The Gu Clan and the Fu Clan had been allies for generations.

Both were supreme powers, controlling countless multiverses, with some beings capable of overturning entire epochs.

Such powerful clans should have easily lasted dozens of epochs.

Yet disaster struck one day.

A mysterious and terrifying existence descended and sought to destroy both clans.

Lingyue, the most talented descendant of both clans, was sealed into the ancient Fuhuang divine artifact using secret techniques.

That artifact was the Heavenly Supreme Sword.

She became its sword spirit and was fortunate enough to survive.

Other talented descendants could only flee on their own, preserving the bloodlines of their clans.

Lingyue bore the responsibility of rebuilding both clans.

On one hand, she needed to find surviving bloodlines and help them grow.

On the other hand, she needed to discover who had destroyed her clans.

All of this was learned by Gu Lingxiao after ascending the Path of Destiny and tracing Lingyue’s past.

“Acknowledge me as your master, and I will spare Ye Han.”

“Refuse, and I will cross the heavens and eliminate every descendant of the Gu Clan and Fu Clan.”

“You choose.”

Lingyue smiled bitterly.

Was there really a choice?

Though she appeared to be a child, she carried countless responsibilities.

She possessed the strongest divine artifact of her clans, along with all their secret techniques and inheritance.

If she refused, her clans’ bloodlines would be exterminated.

She and Ye Han would also die.

Her clans would vanish forever.

“My time is precious. Make your decision.”

Gu Lingxiao was not worried.

Lingyue was the protagonist’s Golden Finger, righteous in nature, experienced, and wise.

She would choose the greater good.

She would submit.

“I understand. I choose to acknowledge you as my master.”

Lingyue spoke with humiliation.

Immediately, a powerful soul force wrapped around her.

It was Gu Lingxiao’s soul power.

She knew his intention.

He would completely control her, turning her into an obedient servant.

Even if she became strong enough to oppose him someday, a single thought from him could make her suffer endlessly.

The Heavenly Supreme Sword would also become his artifact.

But compared to the extinction of her clans, this outcome was easier to accept.

Without resistance, Lingyue was completely controlled within seconds.

Gu Lingxiao waved his hand, and golden light descended upon her.

Countless heavenly treasures poured out, reconstructing her body.

Looking at Gu Lingxiao’s expressionless face, Lingyue felt conflicted.

She knew he was not a good person.

Yet rebuilding her body was something she had dreamed of for hundreds of thousands of years.

And this new body was of excellent quality.

Although Ye Han had treated her well, he was too weak.

He could not protect her or rebuild her body.

The revival of her clans was still far away.

In terms of benefits, Gu Lingxiao had already surpassed Ye Han.

And at her core, she admired strength.

Her previous fondness for Ye Han was also because of his potential.

Despite herself, she now felt a trace of gratitude and admiration for Gu Lingxiao.

These emotions mixed with humiliation and hatred, leaving her confused.

“I have rebuilt your body. Do what a servant should do.”

Gu Lingxiao spoke calmly, signaling with his eyes.

“Yes… Master…”

Lingyue slowly lowered herself, beginning to fulfill her duty.
