Fantasy: I Am the Villain.

Chapter Fourteen Duan Yu

Although it's a basic villainous character setting, Bai Ke clearly doesn't want to just be that kind of simple guy who falls down in three seconds.

"I'm a professional super villain, how can I associate with those low-class nobodys?"

To be a villain, you have to do bad things and still have a bunch of righteous people applauding and cheering, manipulating all sorts of gods and powerful beings at will.

As he thought this, Bai Ke darted to the edge of the cliff where the man had fallen. He grabbed the man by the back of the collar with one swift motion.

This man's attire was rather peculiar; he wore a long scholar's robe and had red lips and white teeth. If that were all, he could be described as a handsome young gentleman in this turbid world.

However, the sight of this person with a bruised and swollen face, covering their eyes and screaming, was really ruining the atmosphere.

Bai Ke never expected that he would encounter a "hero saves the beauty" scenario as soon as he transmigrated to this small world.

Whether he was terrified or something else, the man just covered his eyes and screamed, unaware that Bai Ke had already rescued him.

Unable to tolerate it any longer, Bai Ke had no patience to listen to his incoherent rant. He knocked him unconscious with a single slap.

"If it were a beautiful woman, it would be fine. I could patiently appreciate what the ancients meant by 'a face pale with fright.' But this kid is out of the question."

Bai Ke tossed the man to the ground with a look of disgust. He couldn't be bothered to take care of this person who had fallen down out of nowhere. Bai Ke wasn't some innocent, naive, or hypocritical person.

Bai Ke was already being incredibly kind by helping out when he encountered someone he could; he had no time to do anything more.

Every moment in this world, people encounter all sorts of accidents. Some are fortunate enough to be rescued by others, while others, due to bad luck, die. This is called everyone having their own destiny!

Having lived two lives and experienced a period of time in a dog-eat-dog world of cultivation, Bai Ke has come to deeply understand this principle.

"Hmm..." With a painful groan, the man in the kimono rubbed the back of his head and woke up groggily.

Seeing himself lying safely on the ground, Duan Yu knew perfectly well that he had been saved; otherwise, he would not have survived falling off that cliff.

"Duan Yu of the Dali Duan Clan and the Prince of Zhennan's Mansion expresses his deepest gratitude to you, young master, for saving his life! Your kindness is like a second birth. If I ever need to escape again, I will be at your service."

Upon regaining consciousness, Duan Yu saw Bai Ke sitting cross-legged in front of him and immediately expressed his gratitude.

"Hmm? Duan Yu? It seems this system has transported me to the world of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils..."

While pondering this, Bai Ke quickly helped Duan Yu to his feet. "Ah... Brother, what are you saying!"

We, the heroes and heroines of the martial world, uphold justice and rescue the wounded. It is a fundamental principle of heaven to draw our swords and help those in need.

Seeing you fall from such a height, I naturally had to help. Otherwise, wouldn't I be the kind of despicable person who would stand by and watch someone die?

Bai Ke, spouting righteous words to deceive the naive Duan Yu, completely forgot his own rough behavior and the chop he had delivered to the back of Duan Yu's head.

Duan Yu repeatedly expressed his gratitude for being saved, saying he would never forget it, but Bai Ke simply shook his head and refused, unwilling to accept Duan Yu's ramblings in his moment of great joy.

This kid actually wants to give away the entire wealth of the Dali Duan family? That's ridiculous...

Bai Ke has read Jin Yong's "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils". You know, in the entire world of "Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils", Duan Yu is the only one who is simple-minded and easily deceived, almost to the point of being stupid.

Otherwise, why would the Prince of Zhennan's mansion call him "Foolish Child"? It's precisely because this kid can easily become engrossed in whatever he does, ignoring worldly affairs. He seems almost foolish.

Bai Ke wouldn't believe a word he said if he agreed now.

"If you had inherited your cuckolded father's title of Prince of Zhennan, I might have believed you a little. But now? You're giving away half of the Dali Duan family's wealth. Tch..."

"However, this kid is quite useful. Now that we've come to this world of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, we must learn Qiao Feng's Eighteen Subduing Dragon Palms."

"If a group of martial artists who haven't even reached the Innate Realm can unleash such astonishing power, wouldn't they be invincible if they used spiritual energy to drive it?"

Thinking of this, Bai Ke couldn't help but become even more excited. This world of Tian Long Ba Bu may not have many other advantages, but it is full of opportunities.

Whether it's Lingjiu Palace, the Linglong Chess Game, or even the Shaolin Temple's Sutra Repository, you absolutely must visit them. If you can learn even a single move or two, you'll have hit the jackpot.

It's no wonder Bai Ke is so agitated now; unfortunately, the Mountain and Sea Realm has undergone a major tribulation in its cultivation.

The once brilliant world of cultivation collapsed overnight, and the current era of cultivation is mainly about absorbing spiritual energy and wielding supernatural powers and magical treasures.

Although some ancient ruins were unearthed, some alchemy and weapon-refining techniques from the previous cultivation world were learned.

However, it is clear that the cultivators of the Mountain and Sea Realm have embarked on a path different from that of the cultivation civilization.

Although the names of the various stages of cultivation are still based on those of the cultivation world, their essence is completely different.

Just like the Golden Core Realm, in that cultivation world, one can be considered a giant. Overturning mountains and seas might be a bit of an exaggeration, but flying a sword for thousands of miles, traveling the vast ocean in the morning and the Cangwu Mountain in the evening is not a joke.

In today's world, the Golden Core Realm is merely a stage of accumulating spiritual energy within the body; one is not yet qualified to comprehend the laws of heaven and earth, nor capable of wielding magical treasures.

Therefore, among low-level cultivators in the Mountain and Sea Realm, the number of supernatural abilities they possess is also an important factor in judging their combat strength, since everyone's cultivation level is similar and their Xuan weapons are not much different.

They can only rely on supernatural powers to defeat their opponents, and these powers are also the best way for them to comprehend the laws of heaven and earth.

After all, supernatural powers were created by the great masters of the cultivation world who comprehended the laws of heaven and earth.

In the world of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils, the sheer number, exquisiteness, and complexity of martial arts techniques are unparalleled in other similar martial arts worlds, making it a treasure trove for Bai Ke to cultivate.

So, it seems that 70 days isn't enough to learn all the martial arts techniques here, let alone transform them into supernatural powers...

"Hmm, that's something we need to think about carefully, but for now, we should try to get some information out of this simpleton Duan Yu and find out what's going on. Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated!"

Because of Bai Ke's life-saving grace, Duan Yu, who was simple-minded and easily deceived, could not resist Bai Ke's deliberate attempts to win him over.

Soon, Bai Ke learned about the current situation. At present, Duan Yu was still an ordinary person with no strength to even kill a chicken. He came to Wuliang Mountain for sightseeing, but he happened to run into the fight between Wuliang Sword Sect and Shennong Gang.

Duan Yu, caught in the power struggle between the two factions, is now being forced by the Shennong Gang to take the Heartbreak Powder in order to find the antidote from the Lightning Sable in Wanjie Valley and join the Shenlong Gang in saving Zhong Ling and his own lives.

After checking Duan Yu's body and using his spiritual power to force out the poison from Duan Yu's body, Bai Ke comforted Duan Yu, who was worried about Zhong Ling's safety.

He then sat cross-legged on the ground, contemplating his next plans and arrangements.
