The Villain's Inner Thoughts Exposed Everything, Shattering the Female Lead’s Persona - Chapter 1:
Chapter 1: Starting as the Ultimate Villain.
In the comment section of the novel ‘The Dragon Emperor Returns to the City of Beauties’.
“Idiot protagonist cultivating that damn ‘Extreme Yang Divine Art,’ only flirting without ever claiming those ten-thousand-year virgins. Toxic.”
“Trash author already dropped the novel. Brothers, no need to read it.”
After posting two negative reviews, Wei Tianci’s vision suddenly went black, and he fainted.
…
[Hello, Host. Welcome to the novel plane of ’The Dragon Emperor Returns to the City of Beauties’.]
[Your identity is the number one ultimate villain, Wei Tianci.]
[You must personally push the protagonist’s plotline toward a perfect ending before you can return to the real world with a super reward.]
Wei Tianci woke up on the bed because of the voice and stared blankly at the luxurious and magnificent master bedroom around him.
As a novel enthusiast, he was no stranger to transmigration or systems. But now that it had actually happened to him, his mind felt completely numb.
The Dragon Emperor Returns to the City of Beauties was a male-oriented online novel.
The protagonist’s parents were murdered. Carrying hatred on his back, he fled overseas. By chance, he obtained a martial arts manual called the “Extreme Yang Divine Art.”
He endured humiliation and trained in silence. In the end, he rose abruptly within the international mercenary circle and became famous in all directions.
He gathered countless followers and established the fearsome Dragon Emperor Hall, dominating the seas with overwhelming power and influence.
Because unlocking the ultimate chapter of the Extreme Yang Divine Art required extremely harsh conditions, he had to gather nine pure Yin women of Chinese descent, then sleep together with them under the same quilt and complete ten dual cultivations to activate it.
So the protagonist decisively returned to the country and descended upon Zhonghai in Magic City.
He concealed his identity and blended into Ankang Pharmaceutical Group under the first female lead, An Muyue, while searching for clues about his enemies from the past.
At the same time, he hunted beauties throughout the city to find pure Yin women: the cold and aloof female CEO, the heroic policewoman, the rich heiress…
The villains in the novel were utterly miserable. They repeatedly served themselves up to be humiliated, allowing the protagonist to show off, slap faces, and gain favorability. A single word, tragic, ran through their entire lives.
Wei Tianci’s role was An Muyue’s number one bootlicker and ultimate villain. His future could easily be imagined.
He said irritably, “System, what happens if I don’t push the plot forward, or if I mess around in this novel world?”
[Hello, Host. If the plotline deviates significantly in direction, the novel world will completely collapse, and you will be annihilated along with it.]
Wei Tianci’s mouth twitched.
[Each time you advance a staged portion of the plot, you will receive rewards, including but not limited to money, skills, physique enhancements, and transformations.]
[All rewards can be brought back to the real world.]
Wei Tianci asked with an uncertain expression, “Where has the plot progressed to now?”
[Replying to Host: Currently at Chapter 9. Ankang Group’s new drug launch conference. Young Master Wei confesses to female CEO An Muyue. Security guard Ye Fan performs a heroic rescue.]
This plot setup was truly infuriating.
Wei Tianci’s father was a powerful political heavyweight in Zhonghai, a man whose word carried immense authority.
His mother was a business magnate who controlled a colossal top-tier conglomerate.
Yet Wei Tianci, as a top young master, was infatuated with a single woman and repeatedly frustrated in love.
According to the idiotic plot setting, at the new drug launch conference, An Muyue would stand on the podium with her trusted team, accepting interviews from various media reporters.
Wei Tianci would suddenly arrive at the venue. In full view of cameras and flashing lights, he would passionately confess his love to the most beautiful woman in Zhonghai.
After An Muyue expressed rejection, Ye Fan, the Dragon Emperor disguised as a low-profile security guard at Ankang Group, would step forward righteously.
Relying on his martial prowess, he would beat Wei Tianci up, then call the police to arrest him, earning the female CEO’s admiration.
Enough was enough.
…
Wei Tianci put on slippers and shorts, grabbed the keys to his Lamborghini, and left the house. He sped toward Ankang Group like a gust of wind.
While waiting at a red light halfway there, he casually plucked a foxtail grass from the roadside greenery. He planned to use it instead of a rose for his confession later.
Normally, by routine, he was supposed to wear a handsome suit, style his hair fashionably, and appear at the conference holding a bouquet of roses.
But since he already knew he would gain nothing from going there, why bother putting on a show?
When the Lamborghini drove into the gates of Ankang Group, the system’s voice immediately sounded.
[Ding! Congratulations, Host. The plot has officially activated. You have obtained an ancient martial physique reward: Repay in Kind.]
A surge of heat flowed through his entire body, and he instantly felt energized.
Wei Tianci raised his eyebrows. Not bad.
Wasn’t this the legendary unique technique of the Murong family of Gusu from [Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils]?
Repay in Kind physique? Did that mean an all-around automatic counterattack? That would certainly save him trouble.
After getting out of the car, Wei Tianci walked toward the launch conference venue with one hand in his pocket.
[If it weren’t for pushing the plot forward, why would I chase after a woman like An Muyue who’s as frigid as ice?]
[This kind of female CEO doesn’t even touch household chores. She must not do any housework at all. Always keeping a straight face. Whoever marries her will be truly unlucky.]
Wei Tianci muttered inwardly as he walked.
He had no idea that these inner thoughts were transmitted directly into An Muyue’s mind.
The cold and aloof female CEO, who was sitting on the stage answering reporters’ questions, suddenly froze.
Was that a hallucination?
Whose voice was that?
I’m frigid? I don’t do housework? Marrying me brings bad luck?
An Muyue glanced around the venue in confusion. Everyone else looked completely normal. Was she the only one experiencing something supernatural?
At that moment, the conference hall doors were slowly pushed open, and Wei Tianci strolled in casually.
As soon as he entered, the atmosphere instantly heated up. People began whispering among themselves.
As the leader of the Four Young Masters of Zhonghai, Wei Tianci’s reputation as a playboy was thunderous and widely known.
An Muyue crossed her arms and frowned slightly as she looked at this uninvited guest.
Wei Tianci waved at the reporters present and said boldly, “Good morning, everyone. I’m here to tell you that today is a double celebration for Ankang Group!”
The crowd was stunned. What did he mean?
Wei Tianci first looked at An Muyue on the stage. She was wearing a tailored white suit, had short hair cut neatly to her ears, diamond earrings, and a delicate face. So this was the number one female lead.
He then said loudly, “The first piece of good news is that under Muyue’s leadership, Ankang Pharmaceutical Group has developed version 2.0 of its antihypertensive drug. Once it goes on the market, it will surely trigger a buying frenzy. I deeply admire that!”
The reporters nodded. That was exactly why they had come today.
On stage, however, An Muyue felt indifferent. Being admired by a notorious playboy was nothing to be proud of.
She was about to speak calmly and ask what the second piece of good news was.
But immediately afterward, she heard Wei Tianci’s inner thoughts again.
[I admire? I admire my ass. If An Muyue had built everything from scratch, I’d at least respect her as a strong woman.]
[But who doesn’t know the truth? Young Miss An started her company with family support. How different do you think you are from me?]
[Such a self-righteous woman.]
