Ye Chen's bias against Gu Changge went far beyond mere dislike.
He practically wished he could flay Gu Changge alive, crush his bones, and scatter his ashes.
At this moment, his head was buzzing.
With just a few words and a pill, his Master was won over?
His expression was twisted with pain, even contorted in agony.
Yan Ji didn't know why Ye Chen hated Gu Changge so much.
However, she suspected it might have something to do with Su Qingge, that woman.
In every aspect, Gu Changge was far more exceptional than Ye Chen.
Jealousy was the original sin.
Ye Chen was still too young, just a boy, with immature thoughts, and only acted on his passions, driven by hot blood.
"Little Chen, you don't need to envy Young Master Gu. I believe your future achievements won't be lower than his..." Yan Ji gently advised, trying to ease the rift between them.
After all, if Gu Changge truly wanted to kill Ye Chen, why would he wait until now?
Of course, she didn't know that Ye Chen was the favorite son of the heavens.
He possessed an elusive fate, a mysterious fortune that protected him from the shadows.
Otherwise, Gu Changge wouldn't have taken advantage of this, playing out the previous act so cleverly.
"Always talking about Young Master Gu, always mentioning him... Master, since you like him so much, why not go find him?"
"Why pity me and stay by my side?"
At that moment, Ye Chen suddenly interrupted Yan Ji's words loudly, gritting his teeth, his eyes reddening.
He looked like a wounded beast.
Su Qingge had already left him, and now even his Master, who had been with him all along, was siding with his enemy?
How could he bear this?
He was filled with a rage that bordered on madness.
If it were anyone else, they would have already vomited a mouthful of blood and fainted from the shock.
Thanks to Ye Chen's extraordinary temperament, he managed to keep his sanity despite the tremendous blow.
Hearing this, Yan Ji was stunned.
She lowered her eyelids, and her gaze became tinged with disappointment.
She never expected Ye Chen to speak such words.
Such behavior could no longer be explained by jealousy.
It was pure childishness.
Hadn't he seen that Gu Changge had put in so much effort to make him follow, yet he hadn't agreed?
Did Ye Chen not understand his own heart?
Yan Ji sighed inwardly, a sense of regret welling up. If only it had been Young Master Gu who had awakened her back then, how wonderful would that have been?
"Regardless of what you say, Little Chen, I will definitely take this pill. Even if Gu Changge has other plans, he probably never expected me to use this to get you out of the dungeon," Yan Ji continued, though her voice was now colder and more distant than before.
The Spirit Gathering Pill could not only ease her current condition.
It could also stabilize her fractured soul and unleash greater power.
"Get me out?"
So, Master had intended this all along?
Upon hearing this, Ye Chen didn't speak further.
His heart was in turmoil, and he needed time to cool down.
But even he could sense that something vital, though difficult to define, was rapidly slipping away from him.
...
"Ding! Ye Chen's relationship with his Master has cracked. Fate points reduced by 80, Destiny value increased by 400."
Inside the grand hall.
Once again, the system's notification rang in his ears, causing Gu Changge to smile slightly.
Wonderful!
Things were indeed developing just as he had predicted.
In the blink of an eye, Ye Chen's fortune points, which had been over 500, had dropped to just above 200.
Although this was still an incredibly high level compared to most people, for Ye Chen, it was the worst decline in more than a decade.
The female protagonist was taken, the Master's relationship cracked...
This destined child of fortune seemed to be struggling to stay relevant before him.
Soon after, Gu Changge opened his attribute panel.
No matter what, his goal in dealing with Ye Chen was to harvest fortune and aggressively boost his Destiny value to increase his power.
He couldn't let temporary success lead to complacency and forget the bigger picture.
Before long, his attribute panel appeared.
Master: Gu Changge.
Identity: True Disciple of Daotian Immortal Palace.
Physique and Bloodline: Demon Heart Dao Bone.
Cultivation: Early Stage of the Marquis Realm.
Skills and Powers: Daotian Immortal Scripture (Seventh Layer), Ten Thousand Transformations Demon Body (Talent), Devouring Immortal Magic...
Destiny Value: 1,100.
Fortune Points: 50 (Black).
System Shop: Opened.
Inventory: Broken Domain Talisman *1, Fragmented Third of the World Seed *1.
"Based on my previous experience, even with over a thousand Destiny points, it would only marginally advance the cultivation progress of the Daotian Immortal Scripture. It's unlikely to break through to the eighth layer," Gu Changge thought.
"So, the Daotian Immortal Scripture should be quite high-tier, no need to rush."
"As for the Devouring Immortal Magic, I can't reveal it until I reach the Divine Realm. For now, I can only use some of its secret techniques."
"I have already mastered these secret techniques perfectly. There's no need to learn more through allocating points."
"After all, the Devouring Immortal Magic is incredibly overpowered. Once exposed, it would probably lead to a situation where everyone in the world becomes my enemy."
As Gu Changge analyzed his situation, he opened the system shop.
Recalling his memories, he realized the original villain's identity was truly set in stone.
The Devouring Immortal Magic, even in the higher realms, was a terrifying magic art that struck fear into the hearts of many ancient and formidable beings.
It had long been severed from the river of time, and no one dared to mention it. It was a taboo inheritance.
"It seems I'm really going to walk further and further down the villain's path..." Gu Changge mused, focusing on the items in the system shop.
As he had suspected, the items were primarily divided into three major categories: Cultivation Techniques, Powers and Talents, and Auxiliary Items.
Gu Changge browsed through the main cultivation section.
He saw levels ranging from Heaven-level, Divine-level, Saint-level, to Supreme-level...
"Not enough Destiny points, Supreme-level cultivation techniques not unlocked?"
"Below Heaven-level techniques are not recorded."
"These techniques are quite affordable. A Heaven-level technique that could directly take a cultivator to the Void God Realm only costs 50 Destiny points?"
"Or is it that Destiny points actually have significant purchasing power in the system shop?"
"Saint Yang Heavenly Skill, collects Saint Yang energy to forge..."
"Saint Yin Heavenly Skill, collects Saint Yin energy..."
Gu Changge couldn't help but click his tongue in wonder.
It could be said that even a random Heaven-level cultivation technique would stir up a bloody storm in the Eastern Desolation.
