Villain: Young Lady, You Must Want Revenge Too - Chapter 17:

Chapter 17: Mo Cinian’s Background and Identity, Passive Skill – Immunity to All Poisons

Duan Weiwei had no idea how she left Moonlight.

After a quick wash and change of clothes, she rushed to the hospital. Her head was not only heavy and groggy, but her mind was also a complete mess. Thoughts kept swirling about the things they had told her earlier.

Did something really happen between her and the boss last night?

She only remembered getting excited after hearing the boss say he could save her grandmother and drinking a glass of wine. After that, she remembered nothing.

Could it be…

Her body was sore, and her head ached badly. The girl became increasingly convinced of her suspicion.

It was over—she was no longer pure!

The thought made her feel like crying without tears. If she had known it would turn out like this, she wouldn’t have insisted on drinking that glass!

She had never imagined she would lose her innocence in a private room of a bar.

Soon, the girl arrived at a hospital ward. Seeing the elderly woman lying in bed, she quickly composed herself. She couldn’t let her grandmother see anything unusual.

…

“Hahaha… that idiot Ye Chen slipped up?”

Early in the morning, Mo Cinian heard the news and laughed. No wonder he gained several thousand Collapse Points last night—this was the reason.

He confessed without being pressed?

“Young Master, but it won’t have much impact on Ye Chen. Lin Zhentian’s body was cremated last night, and the autopsy won’t reveal anything… I did it very cleanly back then,” Chen Jiu said, his tone carrying some guilt.

“It’s my fault. I didn’t understand the law very well. I thought we could imprison Ye Chen for a long time, but now it seems… his charges aren’t that serious! At most a year or two~”

Mo Cinian waved his hand dismissively at Chen Jiu’s self-blame.

“It’s fine. I never expected to pin any serious crime on Ye Chen anyway. As long as I can disgust him, it’s enough~”

“Besides, believe me, someone will bail him out soon!”

Joking aside, how could a Child of Destiny be held down by prison? Even a fifteen-day stay in a detention center would be a miracle.

“Young Master, no one dares to bail him out,” Chen Jiu said slowly.

Mo Cinian shook his head.

“If someone wants to bail him, let them. We should stay low-key for now. I’m already on the blacklist~”

“Young Master, you’ve always been on the blacklist!”

“Uh…”

Indeed, as a villain, being on the blacklist was perfectly reasonable.

His original identity wasn’t ordinary, unlike typical villains. His main family forces were far overseas. His cheap old man, for instance, started in the arms business, growing from a small-time smuggler to full-scale production and sales, eventually establishing his own arms company with a complete R&D and manufacturing chain.

No exaggeration—out in the Middle East, two or three bullets out of every ten came from their family.

His siblings weren’t ordinary either: mafia heirs, Wall Street wolves, assassin leaders… a bunch of ruthless people.

Was this reasonable?

Of course not!

But he was a villain, a stepping stone for the protagonist, and naturally, his family were villains too.

Honestly, with Ye Chen’s background and strength, if they weren’t in Longguo, he could have crushed Ye Chen in seconds.

As for his three masters? Tied together, they probably couldn’t withstand a single rocket attack.

With such a background… he had been on the blacklist since arriving in Longguo three years ago. Many people were watching him!

“As for Ye Chen… just keep an eye on him secretly. Don’t press too hard, just torment him slowly! Most importantly… this guy is very skilled in medicine. Once he’s out, he’ll probably go around saving people… don’t let him succeed in showing off.”

Chen Jiu paused for a moment, then nodded.

“Alright!”

“By the way… Chen Jiu, how long have you been with me?”

“Fourteen years and seven months.”

“That long? Not bad~”

Chen Jiu could be trusted unconditionally. If he could check loyalty, Chen Jiu’s would definitely be the unwavering kind.

“System, do you have a function to check loyalty?”

[Of course, for 100 Collapse Points, meow~]

“Use it, check Chen Jiu.”

[Chen Jiu Loyalty: 100 (MAX)]

“As expected!”

Mo Cinian smiled. Though he was a transmigrator, he had inherited over twenty years of the original body’s memories. It was impossible not to have feelings for a subordinate who had followed him for over a decade.

“Tsk tsk tsk, Ye Chen will probably be out soon! I need to get myself some self-protection abilities.”

Honestly, if Ye Chen were just a normal little doctor, he wouldn’t care at all.

But the problem was: Ye Chen had learned poison arts!

If he secretly poisoned him, who could he complain to?

[Host: Mo Cinian]

[Title: Minor Villain (Comes with high taunt; slightly increases the probability of encountering protagonists)]

[Collapse Points: 36,000]

In just a few days, he had gained over 36,000 Collapse Points.

Nearly 20,000 of them were contributed by the main heroine Lin Qingqiu, over 10,000 by Ye Chen, and the remaining few thousand by Duan Weiwei, the second heroine.

With more than 30,000 Collapse Points… he could afford to buy something to strengthen himself.

“System, is there an ability that can resist poison? I don’t want to be sneakily killed by that bastard Child of Destiny.”

[Ding! System Recommendation!]

[Immunity to All Poisons (Passive Skill): Host will possess a constitution immune to 99% of poisons and highly resistant to rare poisons.]

[Cost: Collapse Points]

[Detox Potion (One-time Item): Removes all toxins from the body with no side effects.]

[Cost: 3000 Collapse Points]

“Stupid system, are you doing this on purpose? You know I just passed 30,000 points and you want to clean me out?”

[No, meow~]

One was a permanent passive skill at a high cost, the other a one-time potion at 3000 points.

Of course he would choose the expensive one.

Who knew if Ye Chen had some instant-kill poison? If he didn’t have time to use the potion and just died, it would be utterly ridiculous!

“Exchange for the skill, Immunity to All Poisons!”

[Ding! Congratulations, Host, you have acquired the skill: Immunity to All Poisons.]

In an instant, a refreshing sensation coursed through Mo Cinian’s body.

“System, also exchange 4 Bad Luck Cards, 1 Gender Change Potion, and 1 ‘Awesome Pill.'”

“Eh? I just realized something interesting. The Gender Change Potion physically changes you into a woman… and the ‘Awesome Pill’ has obvious side effects… If I use the Gender Change Potion and then take the ‘Awesome Pill,’ will the side effects trigger?”

[…]

[Host, you can try it. This system would love to see it, meow~]

“Scram~”

[(╬▔皿▔)╯]

“But maybe I should consider using Ye Chen as an experimental subject.”

Mo Cinian’s face showed a sinister smile~
