The Villain: You Proposed Breaking the Engagement, So Why Are You Crying Now? - Chapter 2:
Chapter 2: Since the Engagement Is Broken, These Things Are No Longer Yours
The students of Capital Martial University had only one thought in their minds: Capital was about to undergo a major upheaval.
The Su family and the Lin family were breaking off the engagement…
The Lin family, which had only secured its position as a first-tier family with the Su family’s support, would now likely be swallowed up by other first- and second-tier families.
“W-Why did the plot suddenly change like this?”
“Young Master Su can’t handle Lin Panxi wanting to break off the engagement?”
“Is something wrong with today’s script?”
“No way! I need to report this to my family immediately so we can prepare in advance!”
“I’m calling my dad right now.”
After a moment of silence, the entire training field burst into commotion. Whispered discussions rose endlessly.
However, as the person directly involved, Lin Panxi felt nothing wrong. After her brief daze, delight appeared on her delicate face.
“Are you serious?” Lin Panxi asked eagerly.
Breaking off the engagement!
It was something she had always wanted, but her family had stopped her, blocking what she believed to be her happiness.
Now Su Yu had personally suggested it.
Su Yu did not get angry at her reaction. His handsome face still carried a calm smile. “Yes. Tomorrow I will personally visit your home to dissolve the engagement.”
She’s looking forward to it? I’m looking forward to it even more.
A bootlicker gets no house.
I will never be that pathetic bootlicker.
With my background in this high-martial world, what kind of woman can’t I have? What kind of life can’t I enjoy?
My talent was tested as having the potential of a Martial Saint. As long as I don’t die prematurely, I’m destined to become one.
Yet in the original novel, someone with Martial Saint potential had cultivation even lower than some of his peers.
That was beyond ridiculous.
Upon hearing his words, Lin Panxi pressed further, “Words alone are not enough. Do you dare to swear an oath?”
She did not believe Su Yu would so easily give up pursuing her. To obtain her, he had used every possible method. She needed him to swear before the will of the world as witness to feel at ease.
Otherwise, this could very well be another one of his schemes.
The onlookers all gasped.
Good grief.
How much does Lin Panxi hate her own family? Is she determined to push them to the brink?
Su Yu sneered inwardly. A female lead who could not even read the situation. He truly did not understand how the original version of himself had fallen for her.
Low talent, low intelligence, low emotional quotient, low cultivation…
Although men tend to lower their standards, this was scraping the floor.
Despite his inner sarcasm, he calmly replied, “Fine.”
After saying that, Su Yu immediately made his oath. “I, Su Yu, will no longer have even the slightest affection for Lin Panxi. Tomorrow I will personally break off the engagement. I will never regret it. If I do, may my Dao heart shatter and my will perish!”
Buzz!
The moment the oath was made, Su Yu felt a tremor in his mind. A mysterious aura surrounded him.
He understood that this was the response of a successfully established oath.
Seeing that Su Yu had truly sworn, everyone was finally convinced that he was completely severing ties with Lin Panxi.
The training field erupted into uproar.
“Damn, he really swore!”
“Tsk tsk, Lin Panxi has completely cut off the Lin family’s retreat this time.”
“I’m sorry, but I kind of want to laugh. I just want to see how the Lin family reacts next.”
“Will Lin Panxi regret this?”
“Regret? Haha.”
The noisy discussions did not reach Lin Panxi’s ears. At this moment, she had only one thought.
Su Yu had truly sworn to stop pursuing her and to stop liking her. It was an oath witnessed by the will of the world. If he broke it, he would die with his Dao destroyed.
At that moment, Lin Panxi felt an immense sense of relief.
“Good! I believe you this time, and only this time,” she said, her beautiful face glowing with satisfaction.
From her expression, it was as if believing Su Yu once was a form of charity.
The crowd was puzzled.
Where did her sense of superiority come from?
From the Lin family?
Without the Su family’s support, the Lin family was not far from decline.
At the very least, the status of a first-tier family would be out of reach.
Incomprehensible.
Su Yu was not surprised by her reaction. In the original novel, Lin Panxi had never liked him. Any bad news about him could make her happy for a long time.
Not to mention the breaking of their engagement.
However…
Swearing not to like Lin Panxi did not mean he could not ruin her, the Lin family, and that protagonist.
After all, in the original novel, he and the Su family were destined to be trampled under her and the Chosen One’s feet.
If he wanted to live longer and more comfortably…
The Lin family and the Chosen One had to die.
At that thought, a thick killing intent flashed in Su Yu’s eyes.
If I’ve been defined as the villain, then what’s wrong with being one?
The moment the thought of becoming a villain arose in his mind, a cold mechanical voice echoed within it.
[Ding! Destiny Villain System successfully bound!]
Hearing the voice, Su Yu was stunned for a moment. Then he instinctively asked in his mind, “System? What functions do you have?”
[Ding! When the host breaks the original plot settings, generous rewards will be granted. By reversing the predetermined cannon-fodder villain fate, the host will receive massive rewards. Each action that violates the original plot will yield corresponding rewards based on its impact.]
[The system’s goal is to cultivate the host into the destined villain of all realms!]
[Current main mission: Kill the Chosen One: Chu Feng!]
Note: The Chosen One can be killed once his luck value drops below 10%.
Note 2: Methods to plunder the Chosen One’s luck value are as follows.
- Seize the Chosen One’s opportunities. Luck value gained depends on the significance of the opportunity.
- Take in the Chosen One’s confidantes and other supportive characters. Luck value gained depends on their overall importance.
- Suppress the Chosen One and shatter his mentality. Luck value gained depends on the degree of his anger.
After hearing the system’s explanation, Su Yu quickly formed a judgment.
In that case…
If the entire Lin family were destroyed… the protagonist’s luck value would likely be greatly plundered.
In the early stages, the Lin family and Lin Panxi had used the Su family’s resources to cultivate this Chosen One.
At this moment, Lin Panxi, still excited, noticed Su Yu had fallen silent. She restrained her smile and returned to her cold demeanor. “Since everything is clear, I’m leaving.”
“I’ll be waiting at home. I hope you don’t break your word. If you don’t come, you’ll die with your Dao destroyed.”
“Honestly, I’d prefer you not to come.”
Her words caused subtle changes in everyone’s expressions.
That was practically a curse wishing Su Yu dead.
Who would have thought the campus beauty spoke so ruthlessly?
Su Yu exited his conversation with the system and glanced at Lin Panxi, a faint smile on his lips. “Don’t worry. I’ll be there at exactly 12 p.m. tomorrow.”
“Good. I’m leaving,” Lin Panxi replied, pleased with his confirmation.
Just as she turned to walk away, Su Yu’s unhurried voice sounded behind her.
“Since you no longer wish to have any connection with me or the Su family, then please return the B-grade extraordinary alloy weapon in your hand and the ring on your right index finger.”
“Those… are not things you are qualified to keep.”
Hearing this, Lin Panxi abruptly stopped. Shock filled her beautiful eyes.
“Su Yu, what do you mean?”
