The Villain Spoiled the Female Leads Too Much, Isn’t It Only Natural They Fell? - Chapter 6:

Chapter 6:

Cui’er felt helpless. That afternoon, she had not been at home, so she did not know what had happened. She answered truthfully, “Miss, I don’t know the details, but I vaguely heard that someone came by.”

Someone came by? Su Wan’er frowned deeply. That person must be the key to why her family was treating her this way.

She immediately said, “Go and find out clearly who came, and what exactly he did and said to the Old Ancestor, my father, and the rest of my family.”

Cui’er dared not delay. She quickly nodded and turned to leave.

…

Meanwhile, Gu Yun had returned to his residence, his mood joyous. Although he had given away many things, compared to what he had gained, those gifts were insignificant. The Gu Family was powerful, and what he had offered was priceless to the Su Family, yet to him it was nothing.

Even so, this was his first time acting like a bootlicker, and he felt somewhat embarrassed. What if his subordinates looked down on him? Where would his dignity as a wealthy Young Master go? He quickly adjusted his demeanor, cleared his throat, and looked to the side at Han Ying. “Ying’er, what do you think of what I did at the Su Family today?”

Han Ying immediately put on a serious expression, nodded, and said firmly, “Young Master first intimidated Su Wan’er, making the Su Family feel as though they faced a great enemy. Then you magnanimously forgave them and gave them benefits, allowing them to breathe a sigh of relief. First the stick, then the sweet date, advancing and retreating at will, you have the Su Family firmly in your grasp. I admire you!”

She looked at him with admiration, her face full of sincerity. “Young Master acting in this way must have a deeper plan that I cannot see through. It is definitely not just for Su Wan’er.”

Gu Yun’s mouth twitched. It seemed his subordinate thought highly of him. That being the case, he might as well continue with this approach.

He nodded lightly, saying with pride, “Indeed, I naturally have my reasons for treating the Su Family this way. I am glad you can understand.”

He waved his hand and said, “Alright, you may go for now. I suddenly feel inspired and plan to go into seclusion to cultivate.”

Han Ying bowed slightly and withdrew.

Excitement surged through Gu Yun as he entered his secret chamber and sat down cross-legged, examining the gains of the day.

[Name: Gu Yun]

[Gender: Male]

[Age: 18]

[Constitution: Primordial Dao Bone (High-grade)]

[Realm: 1st stage Divine Ability Realm]

[Techniques: Ancient Body Refining Manual, Primordial Carefree Mind Technique, Heaven-Piercing Sword Intent, Wandering Phantom Movement Technique]

[Divine Weapon: Primordial Divine Sword]

With his eyes closed, Gu Yun observed his attributes in his mind. Soon, he noticed tremendous changes.

First was his constitution. Originally, his Primordial Dao Bone was only of medium grade, but now it had advanced to high grade. With such a constitution, cultivating any technique would bring twice the result with half the effort. With this improvement, mastering techniques became even easier.

He circulated the Primordial Carefree Mind Technique for a few cycles and immediately felt that his progress was ten times faster than before.

Next was his cultivation. Before, his cultivation had been stuck at the 9th stage of the Core Formation Realm. Breaking through to the Divine Ability Realm was a great barrier requiring fate, opportunity, and luck. But after obtaining 100,000 cultivation experience points from the Su Family, he had directly advanced to the Divine Ability Realm.

With his current strength, along with his Saint-level techniques and a Saint-grade divine weapon, even the ordinary inner elders of the Primordial Holy Land might not be his match. Among his peers in the entire Great Wilderness World, few could compare to him. Even the protagonist Ye Bufan was only at the 3rd stage of the Core Formation Realm at this time.

Not to mention the Saint-level supreme technique, Heaven-Piercing Sword Intent. This was one of Ye Bufan’s trump cards in the mid-stage of the original novel, its power extraordinary.

Gu Yun smiled with satisfaction. “With my current strength, even if I clash directly with Ye Bufan, he would hardly be able to gain any advantage over me.”

Yet, despite his confidence, Gu Yun remained cautious. He had no intention of opposing Ye Bufan, but according to the original plotline, once Ye Bufan entered the inner sect, he always sought trouble with him. Even if Gu Yun wanted to avoid conflict, he could not keep hiding forever.

Thus, he resolved to prepare for both outcomes—avoid conflict when possible, but also devise methods to counter Ye Bufan if necessary. Suddenly, his eyes lit up as a thought struck him.

“According to the original plotline, after Ye Bufan entered the inner sect, he went to Tianjue Peak in the back mountains and obtained the Seven-colored Glazed Soft Armor. That was a treasure left behind by the Divine Phoenix Empress in ancient times, a Saint-level supreme artifact containing a trace of Emperor’s blood essence. Wearing it, not only was it light as silk, it could withstand the attacks of any Dao Palace Realm cultivator beneath the 9th stage, and it could even nourish and enhance one’s constitution.”

“In the early stages, Ye Bufan relied heavily on this treasure to act so arrogantly, ignoring even me, the Young Master of the Gu Family. But if I intercept that treasure before him, he may not be so bold as to provoke me!”

A smile appeared on Gu Yun’s face. He decided to head immediately for Tianjue Peak, to seize the treasure before Ye Bufan entered the inner sect.

…

At the outer sect, in a pavilion, Ye Bufan let out a cold snort, his face full of indignation. “Hmph, that inner sect senior brother Zhao Tiande is truly bullying others with his power. Junior Sister Qingling, don’t worry. If he dares harbor ill intentions toward you, I, Ye Bufan, will never let him go.”

As he spoke, he reached out, intending to pull the innocent and lovely girl beside him into his arms. He planned to sweet-talk her, and perhaps win her over tonight.

But just as his hand moved, the girl stood up, troubled, and turned her back to him, taking two steps forward. “Senior Brother Ye, it’s useless. That Zhao Tiande is a 7th stage Core Formation Realm cultivator, with countless divine weapons and techniques. Even if you and I join forces, we might not be his match. Moreover, I heard he is a subordinate of the Holy Son Gu Yun. With people like us, how could we dare provoke someone tied to the Holy Son?”

Her voice was cold and heavy, filled with sorrow and helplessness.

At the mention of Gu Yun’s name, Ye Bufan’s face twisted with disdain, resentment, and extreme irritation. Gu Yun again! He harassed Su Wan’er in the inner sect, and now his subordinate harassed Chen Qingling in the outer sect. The women he liked, Gu Yun always had to interfere with. Was this deliberate?

Ye Bufan sneered, “So what if it’s Gu Yun? What’s there to fear? Junior Sister Qingling, don’t worry. I have already passed the inner sect assessment and am now an inner sect disciple. Tomorrow I will report there, and when I return, I will deal with Zhao Tiande for you. For your sake, I fear neither Gu Yun nor anyone else. Besides, I already have a way to handle Zhao Tiande.”

Chen Qingling’s eyes lit up with surprise as she turned to him. “Really?”

Ye Bufan’s expression was full of confidence as he said proudly, “Of course.”

Chen Qingling’s heart was filled with joy. She knew Ye Bufan’s talent was exceptional and his methods many. Perhaps he truly had a way to deal with Zhao Tiande.

At this moment, a voice sounded in Ye Bufan’s mind—it was Luo Wushang. “Bufan, you have just broken through to the 3rd stage of the Core Formation Realm. Even with the methods I taught you, you may not be able to contend with a 7th stage Core Formation Realm cultivator. To risk yourself for a woman is too reckless.”

Ye Bufan only smiled faintly in his heart. “Rest assured, Master. I will not rashly provoke a 7th stage Core Formation cultivator. But did you not say the Primordial Holy Land’s inner sect still holds the treasure you left there tens of thousands of years ago? As long as I obtain it, what need have I to fear Zhao Tiande?”

Luo Wushang’s tone was dissatisfied. “It has been tens of thousands of years. I cannot be certain that thing still remains. What if it is gone?”

Ye Bufan grew impatient. “Master, wasn’t that treasure something you foresaw in your fate, something you deliberately left behind? And you said only one fated to you could obtain it. Clearly, I am that destined person. Who else could it be if not me?”

Luo Wushang sighed helplessly, trying once more to dissuade him. “But with your current strength, you are not qualified to make an enemy of the Gu Family. To do so for the sake of a woman, you—”

Before she could finish, Ye Bufan cut her off angrily. “Enough, Master. What do you mean, for the sake of a woman? I do this to uphold justice! Would you rather I stand by and allow villains to run rampant, bowing to power like a coward?”

Hearing this, Luo Wushang could only sigh again, her heart sinking with disappointment. Arrogant, overconfident, and blinded by false righteousness—yet consumed by lust. She truly could not understand why her fate was tied to someone like Ye Bufan, a man so unworthy.
