I Am The Fated Villain
Chapter 43: Yarn of Destiny; Random Task System!
Young Master Gu treated her differently — Lin Qiuhan's heart became muddled as he recalled the warm expression Gu Changge showed whenever he spoke to her.
It was normal for him to have such feelings and reactions at the moment. The beautiful girls in front of her were either Royal Princesses or Holy Girls, and none of them were worse than her in terms of background.
They had many suitors following them like dogs, yet all of them pretended to be aloof and untouchable. They rejected everyone's progress, and gained fame as Elves and Goddesses.
But now, they were cursing at each other and taking heart in front of Young Master Gu. Today, they do not look any different from how women who sell their meat in brothels are described in the book.
Such a scene, which was completely different from their normal actions, would shock anyone if they saw it from the outside.
Still, it was indeed the attitude they had to hold before Gu Changge!
'Young Master Gu is very good to me ...'
Lin Qiuhan recalled all the time he spent with Gu Changge, and all the topics he discussed with him, and inevitably felt dizzy.
Su Qingge, on the other hand, was already used to such a scene. No matter how one looked at her, Gu Changge had everything a woman wanted in a man. How could this beautiful woman treat him just like everyone else after knowing his strength?
He had no doubt that they had the following thoughts in their minds: 'if he (Su Qingge) and Lin Qiuhan could accept the Young Master's help, why couldn't they?'
Once they established a relationship with the Young Master, their status would change by one-eighty degrees for the better. There was nothing they could not get back then, so how could they refrain from pleasing the Young Master?
Su Qingge took a quick look at their thoughts.
His expression was calm, and not the slightest bit of worry appeared in his heart. Did these women really think the little makeup on their faces could attract the attention of her Young Master? Impossible, given his temperament.
The warm and elegant expression he showed them was just a facade. The real Gu Changge was indifferent to everything in the world. He is a loner and elusive man who ignores everything from above.
One had to praise Su Qingge's sharp mind. He had only been with Gu Changge for a while, yet he had already developed a certain understanding of his antics.
[Dig! You have successfully conquered Lin Qiuhan, and this has triggered the Fortune Event! You have received 200 Luck Value Points, and 1000 Destiny Points!]
The System Prompt suddenly sounded in Gu Changge's mind, washing him with euphoria. The thousand Fate Points he had been waiting for the entire day were already in his pocket!
Lin Qiuhan did not disappoint him.
Right now, he could no longer be bothered to listen to, or respond to, the talk[1] spewed out by the group of 'geniuses' in front of him who kept talking about their contest.
[VILFIC: nonsense means nonsense used by salespeople to trick you into buying their junk.]
Who in their right mind would want to listen to a bunch of brats touting their own horns?
Gu Changge no longer paid attention to them, and focused his mind on the System. Immediately, the System Attribute Panel appeared before him.

His Fortune value had already broken through the 300 Points mark. It was not all because he had conquered Lin Qiuhan, but also because he had brought Su Qingge with him. Both of them were blessed with great Luck, so Gu Changge's Fortune Value naturally increased as he used it well.
Gu Changge felt an incredible sense of comfort after receiving this wave of harvest from the leaves of his bringer.
Gu Changge pondered for a moment, and decided not to increase his strength. After all, his current realm was quite powerful in the Lower Realm. He decided to order these almighty Destiny Points for an opportunity where he could make the most of them.
After which, he glanced at the items in the System Shop.
Finally, after taking a look around for a while, he found a [Pill Dao] Technique that matched the value of a hundred Destiny Points.
[Interchange!]
After spending a hundred Fate Points, Gu Changge managed to receive the [Basic Level Pill Dao] technique. He was planning to find the right opportunity to hand it over to Lin Qiuhan. After all, if he wanted to train it for himself, he would have to start early.
It was a good [Pill Dao] technique, so he hoped that he would not waste it.
As soon as Gu Changge's consciousness came out of the System, another Prompt sounded in his mind.
[Dig! Finding someone with a series of destinies connected to a Preferred Heavenly Son! Please press sworn brother of the Loved Heavenly Son! You will receive 500 Destiny Points to complete this task! There is no penalty for failure.]
Gu Changge was startled, and an expression of interest appeared on his face. This was the first time he had encountered such a random task. Specially? There is a reward if he finishes it, but no penalty even if he does not finish it.
It was basically up to him whether he took it or not.
500 Destiny Points..it was quite an appetizing sum!
Merely, who exactly was the brother of this sworn Heavenly Son, and with whom was that Heavenly Son related? He concluded that that person was definitely related to Ye Chen, after all, Lin Tian was already dead.
The system did not mention the identity of the target, but the person was supposed to be one of the outstanding children in front of him.
It should not be someone from the Eastern Wilderness, unless, of course, they had something wrong with their heads and foolishly decided to prosecute death. Knowing that Ye Chen offended him, the people there would definitely sever all and all ties with Ye Chen, and even hide themselves somewhere far away.
Since Ye Chen fled to the Middle Country all the way from the Eastern Wilderness, he must have found one or two geniuses from the Middle Country on his way. It was then that he swore brotherhood to genius, and paved the way for himself to enter a new map, the Middle States.
That's a pretty normal figure.
It's just that he never thought he would have to deal with this 'brother oath?
Anyway, it was a good offer.
Gu Changge took a sip of his tea, and a slight expression of excitement appeared on his face as he considered the matter. He quickly swept a glance at all the geniuses around him, completely ignoring everyone from the Eastern Wilderness, and the beautiful woman who was trying to take heart before him.
He knows who to look at.
"Chu Xuan ..."
Gu Changge spoke in an authoritative tone.
"Sir, what are your orders?"
Chu Xuan ran over as soon as he heard his call, and responded with a respectful and flattered expression on his face. This scene made many youths develop envy and jealousy towards him in their hearts. They were also heaven-favored, yet this Chu Xuan had won the award of the mighty Young Master. They estimated that it would not be long before Chu Xuan surged into Heaven, and left all of them as they became people from two different worlds.
"Is there any news of Ye Chen in the Middle States?"
Gu Changge asked indifferently. He naturally knew the answer to his question, after all, Ye Chen's location was always in his eyes. It was just not time for him to squeeze it dry.
The only reason he asked that question was to see the reaction of the crowd.
"You're Chen?"
Chu Xuan's expression turned to shame. He touched the back of his head, and said, "My master ..."
"You're not gonna lose track of him, are you?"
Gu Changge looked at him deeply, and immediately, Chu Xuan felt cold sweat running down his forehead. He was scared, and inevitably looked towards Su Qingge for help.
Although it was an honor for him to be the Young Master's shepherd dog, he was unable to withstand such a frightening pressure from her.
Ye Chen's?!
Who'sis that?
The expressions of the other geniuses around him also changed. Fortunately, Gu Changge did not ask them this question, or else they would not know how to remain standing.
They had heard some rumors from the Central State, but they were not too sure about the details.
At this moment, the Holy Son of the Holy Land of Buddha, Jin Yang, felt extremely uneasy in his heart. Although he was a straightforward and honest person, he also had self-esteem. He hated this group of arrogant 'geniuses', and even felt disgust towards them when he saw them licking Gu Changge's boots.
In his opinion, the temperament of his younger brother Ye Chen who was 'quiet and firm'[1] was many times better than all these 'geniuses.
When he heard Gu Changge ask about Ye Chen's whereabouts, he could only moan in his heart. He thinks that something is wrong. Fortunately, he did his best to hold back and did not show any abnormalities.
