Villain: After Intercepting the Female Lead, the Protagonist Collapses

“System, do you have any cultivation methods related to Feng Shui?” Jiang Che curiously asked the system in his mind. Since Yang Wei was skilled in Feng Shui, to prevent him from setting traps, Jiang Che thought it necessary to get some secret Feng Shui arts.

“Searching as per host’s request…”

Feng Shui Secret Art: 3,000 villain points.

[Covers all Feng Shui techniques.].

Heavenly Insight Technique: 10,000 villain points.

[A secret method practiced by taoists, encompassing Feng Shui techniques, Miaojiang witchcraft, corpse-driving techniques, etc.].

“Get me the Heavenly Insight Technique!” Jiang Che bit the bullet and exchanged for the Heavenly Insight Technique. No pain, no gain, and with this secret art, he could surely farm villain points from Yang Wei!

“Ding, Heavenly Insight Technique exchanged successfully…”

“Do you wish to receive the knowledge transfer?”

“How long will it take?” Jiang Che curiously asked, unable to wait too long.

“With your current Transformation cultivation level, it will only take about five minutes to transfer all the knowledge.”

“Proceed with the transfer.”

Five minutes later, Jiang Che slowly opened his eyes, feeling his mind suddenly filled with a vast and complex array of knowledge, yet without any headache.

After stabilizing his mind, he got up from the bed, went to the garage, drove a Lamborghini towards the Gu residence.

…………

Gu Residence.

Jiang Che parked outside and walked in. The new batch of guards recognized him and did not stop him.

“Master, Young Master Jiang is here…” In the living room, Gu Dezheng was talking with Yang Wei when the butler approached and whispered in his ear.

“He’s here?” Gu Dezheng was surprised but quickly got up to greet Jiang Che, despite Jiang Che’s respect for him. He knew Jiang Che respected him because of his daughter, not for his own sake.

“Uncle Gu, good day.” Jiang Che entered the living room and greeted Gu Dezheng with a smile.

“Young Master Jiang, please have a seat. May I know the reason for your visit today?” After Jiang Che sat down, Gu Dezheng directly asked.

“Nothing much, just here to check on Yunqi. She told me she’s being forced into marriage! As Yunqi’s male best friend, I can’t just stand by and let this happen.” Jiang Che spoke earnestly, as if he was genuinely concerned for Yunqi’s well-being.

“Heh…” Gu Dezheng laughed awkwardly, clearly understanding the implication in Jiang Che’s words. It was obvious he was targeting him.

Gu Dezheng sighed and said, “Young Master Jiang, you’re overthinking it. I’m not forcing Yunqi to marry anyone, just encouraging her to interact more with Yang Wei. She’s at the age for marriage and not getting any younger.”

“Uncle Gu, that’s not the right approach.” Jiang Che shook his head, then continued. “Will Yunqi truly be happy marrying someone she doesn’t like? If she’s unhappy in marriage, she’ll think about divorce.”

“A divorce would be a stain on her in our circle and make it hard to marry again. Plus, Yunqi is only 23, not too old. These matters can’t be rushed, the right person will come eventually. Rushing could lead to regret…”

Yunqi was the oldest amongst her fellow female disciples; even Shen Qingqiu was only 21. But because she joined later, she had to call Shen Qingqiu ‘Senior Sister’.

After hearing Jiang Che’s words, Gu Dezheng pondered with a frown. He might have been too hasty.

His daughter had just met Yang Wei today and would surely not agree to marry him. And as Jiang Che said, a divorce would indeed make it difficult to remarry in their circle unless she married a commoner.

“Jiang Che’s words really woke me up from a dream, making me realize the truth. Thanks to Jiang for his advice. This matter indeed cannot be rushed. Yunqi’s love life is not something I should interfere with excessively.”

“And indeed, Yunqi’s age is not that old. After all, nowadays, many young people don’t marry until they’re thirty.” Gu Dezheng nodded slightly, gratefully addressing Jiang Che.

Jiang Che was somewhat surprised by Gu Dezheng’s easy acquiescence. He hadn’t expected the old man to agree so readily just after a few words of persuasion. It seems Gu Dezheng is not as conservative as other elders and is quite reasonable.

“What do you mean!” Hearing Jiang Che’s words, Yang Wei was not happy. He glared at Jiang Che resentfully. Damn it, he was almost done negotiating with Gu Dezheng, and then out of nowhere, this Jiang Che comes and changes everything.

“You are Yunqi’s fiancé?” Jiang Che turned to look at the shabbily dressed Yang Wei. He hadn’t noticed him before; he thought this guy was some beggar that Gu Dezheng brought back.

“System, check his attribute panel.”

Protagonist: Yang Wei

Cultivation: Early Stage of Transformation

Luck: 15000

Skills: Advanced Feng Shui Technique, Intermediate Miaojiang Witchcraft.

“This time it’s a protagonist at the Transformation stage?” Jiang Che looked at Yang Wei with interest. He hadn’t expected to meet another protagonist at this level so soon.

With his high luck value, if Jiang Che plays his cards right, he could easily earn the villain points needed to reach the peak of Transformation.

“Yes, I am Miss Yunqi’s fiancé! We don’t need an outsider to interfere in our matters!” Yang Wei stood tall and firm, looking at Jiang Che with a defiant tone.

“An outsider?” Jiang Che couldn’t help but laugh insincerely. He had teased Yunqi so many times, how could he possibly be an outsider?

“Can you give Yunqi happiness?” Jiang Che’s tone was mocking.

“Of course!” Yang Wei didn’t even think before blurting out. He could promise Yunqi happiness, after all, such verbal promises don’t cost anything.

“With what? With your shabby clothes?”

“Or your hot blood?”

“Do you have any qualifications?”

“Any background?”

“Any connections?”

“I…” Yang Wei was left speechless by Jiang Che’s questions, unable to find a suitable rebuttal. As Jiang Che said, he was just a poor young man with nothing. How could he promise Yunqi a good future? For a moment, Yang Wei wavered under Jiang Che’s words.

“Ding, the host has shaken Yang Wei’s resolve, striking his arrogance, altering the plot, reward 2000 villain points.”

“Ding, Yang Wei’s self-denial reduces his luck by 1000, reward 2000 villain points.”

Is this self-denial? Jiang Che was somewhat speechless. Yang Wei’s Dao heart was indeed fragile, unlike the other protagonists Jiang Che had encountered.

Could it be because of his name? Thinking this, Jiang Che’s expression turned strange…

In the original story, although Yang Wei had ambiguous relationships with many women, he never succeeded with any of them. Could it be because of his name?

“Yang Wei, what a name…” Jiang Che chuckled lightly and stopped paying attention to him, greeted Gu Dezheng, and went upstairs.

After Jiang Che left, an awkward silence filled the room. Gu Dezheng and Yang Wei looked at each other, each lost in their own thoughts, neither willing to speak first.

…

In Yunqi’s bedroom on the second floor.

Jiang Che entered and saw Yunqi playing with her phone on the bed. She turned her head curiously and, seeing Jiang Che, showed a joyful expression.

“You finally came. If you hadn’t, I’d have been taken away by someone else~” Yunqi got up from the bed and walked over to Jiang Che, whispering in his ear with a seductive voice and expression.

“You’re a siren!” Jiang Che steadied his mind and inwardly cursed. Yunqi’s demeanor could easily disrupt his mental state.

“I’ve already persuaded Uncle Gu, and he agreed not to force the marriage on you anymore.” Jiang Che took a deep breath and said.

“Really?” Yunqi looked at Jiang Che skeptically. Her father didn’t listen to her, but he changed his mind just because of a few words from Jiang Che, an outsider?

But then she thought about Jiang Che’s identity and felt reassured. He must have mentioned his family’s name to persuade her father.

“Hee hee, thanks to you this time, Xiao brother~ I’ll definitely repay you well next time~”
