Villains in Film and Television: Starting with Yang Ke in "The Golden Age"

After hearing Yang Ke's words, Lin Xian'er didn't say much, but her actions spoke volumes.

She had originally dreamed of marrying Li Xunhuan, but in the end, even if she offered herself to him, he wouldn't accept her. How could Lin Xian'er, a fairy who was praised every day at the Wan Hua Lou, possibly stand this?

As the saying goes, the deeper you love someone, the deeper you will hate them.

"Congratulations, host, for successfully making Lin Xian'er give herself away for free. Reward: Immortal Aura."

The system quickly sent a reward while Lin Xian'er was busy cleaning up the mess.

At first, Yang Ke thought the reward was nothing special, but after reading the system introduction, he realized that he had underestimated Lin Xian'er.

The aura of a celestial being is an aura that can make others feel inferior, and it is also a kind of advantage, but it is an advantage in appearance.

When fighting against someone, just seeing you might make your opponent feel jealous or inferior, putting them at a disadvantage.

While it doesn't directly boost combat power, it suits Yang Ke better, making it easier for girls to give themselves away for free.

For example, Lin Xian'er was dumbfounded when Yang Ke used his immortal aura.

"What's wrong? Aren't you going to continue with your work?"

Yang Ke glanced at Lin Xian'er indifferently, but she...

"That's true. He's still a novice, and his experience is not as good as it will be ten years later."

Yang Ke hadn't expected Lin Xian'er to be such a lovesick fool, but considering her behavior towards Li Xunhuan, it wasn't hard to understand.

Now that Lin Xian'er had made her choice, Yang Ke naturally wouldn't just give her empty words to appease her. Instead, he began teaching her martial arts the very next day.

The Nine Yin Manual and its Nine Yin White Bone Claw are actually quite suitable for Lin Xian'er. Although they are a bit sinister, it depends on who uses them.

The woman in yellow also knew the Nine Yin White Bone Claw, but it didn't affect her.

Ten years have passed in the blink of an eye.

During this period, Yang Ke had no interest in staying in Li Garden and attracting attention, so he simply handed it over to Li Huan's sworn brother, Long Xiaoyun, to manage.

He himself took Lin Shiyin and Lin Xian'er back to his own Hidden Sword Manor, where he used the knowledge he gained in the modern world to forge many lesser divine swords.

Although they are all top-tier divine weapons in the world of Little Li Flying Dagger, they are still not as good as those given by the system.

As a sword technique, it's okay to use the Myriad Swords Technique, but it's not enough for real masters to use.

However, although the inferior products from Hidden Sword Manor were just average in Yang Ke's eyes, they were not in the eyes of outsiders.

After he gave a sword to his former master, Xue Yingzi, his master was immediately pleased and began to show it off everywhere.

This was great; the famous swords of Cangjian Manor suddenly became hot sellers, and Yang Ke's fame also increased.

During this time, some people did have ulterior motives, but their attempts were like throwing stones into the sea. Over time, everyone came to regard Hidden Sword Manor as a sacred place of swordsmanship.

Even in private discussions, many people in the martial arts world believe that if Bai Xiaosheng were to rearrange the weapon rankings, Yang Ke of Cangjian Villa would definitely be in the top 5!

Yes, the weapon ranking list is quite prestigious. The top 5 are not on the same level as the top 10, top 20, or top 100. So being able to enter the top 5 is a really great honor.

On the other hand, ten years later, Xunhuan returns to Li Garden, but encounters the swordsman Afei on the way. The two become sworn brothers because of the golden silk armor.

The two heard the storyteller and Xiao Hong at an inn near Li Garden, and upon hearing their story, they both stopped to listen attentively.

It turned out that the old storyteller was recounting the deeds of Yang Ke from Cangjian Manor.

Li Xunhuan stopped because he thought of Lin Shiyin, while A Fei wanted to challenge all the swordsmen in the world, and Yang Ke was naturally among them.

"Brother, is this Yang Ke the one you mentioned before...?"

After hearing this, Afei immediately remembered what Li Xunhuan had told him about his cousin's husband.

"Yeah, Fei, you can't win with your current strength."

"The strength of the top 5 in this weapon ranking is only from ten years ago. With his talent at that time, plus his understanding over the years, even the number 1 Heavenly Mystery Elder might not be able to beat Brother Yang."

Li Xunhuan nodded and began to talk about Yang Ke's situation.

"Old Man Tianji is ranked number one on the Weapon Ranking. Yang Ke hasn't even been re-ranked by Bai Xiaosheng yet, and even if he were, he'd only be in the top 5. How could he possibly defeat Old Man Tianji? You're really something..."

Upon hearing Li Xunhuan's words, Sun Xiaohong immediately retorted, clearly unconvinced.

After all, her grandfather was the Heavenly Secret Staff, ranked number one on the weapon list, also known as the Heavenly Secret Elder.

Now that Li Xunhuan is looking down on her like this, she, who doesn't know that the person in front of her is Li Xunhuan, naturally finds this person extremely hateful.

"I'm sorry, gentlemen. My granddaughter is naive and has never seen much of the world, so she spoke nonsense. I'm so sorry."

Others might not be able to tell, but the Old Man of Heavenly Secrets naturally recognized that the person in front of him was Li Xunhuan, the Little Li Scholar, and that the person who was calling him brother was certainly no ordinary person either.

Moreover, Ah Fei has just entered the martial arts world and is still at a stage where he can show his talent. Tianji Laoren naturally saw his strength at a glance.

Sun Xiaohong was still unconvinced, but after being pulled back by the Heavenly Mystery Elder, she didn't say anything more.

"It's alright, old man, don't worry about it. It was just that we exaggerated a bit when we talked about it outside."

Li Xunhuan politely cupped his hands in greeting, then led A-Fei to a table where they sat down and began to drink.

"Brother, why didn't you come to Li Garden to see me when you returned to Baoding Prefecture?"

Just as Li Xunhuan and A Fei were both preoccupied with Yang Ke, Long Xiaoyun arrived at the inn with a hint of reproach and spoke to Li Xunhuan.

His acting skills were hardly acting skills anymore, since Long Xiaoyun suffered for ten years because of Li Xunhuan.

Back then, Yang Ke gave Long Xiaoyun the Three Corpse Brain God Pill in order to win over Lin Shiyin. Although he kept giving him the antidote afterward, who wouldn't be afraid?

Unable to afford to offend Yang Ke, Long Xiaoyun naturally wanted to get some interest back from Li Xunhuan, such as the Little Li Flying Dagger technique.

"Big brother, I just got back too."

"This is my sworn brother, Afei, whom I met when I returned to the Central Plains."

“Ah Fei, this is my older brother Long Xiaoyun, who saved me ten years ago.

At this point, Li Xunhuan was unaware that Long Xiaoyun was Yang Ke's man. After all, the plot had changed; Yang Ke had married Lin Shiyin, and Long Xiaoyun was now merely managing Li Garden on behalf of Yang Ke.

"Brother Long."

After hearing that Long Xiaoyun was Li Xunhuan's savior, Afei didn't look down on him like he did in the original series.

At that time, everyone knew perfectly well that it was Long Xiaoyun who had set a trap to take everything from Li Xunhuan, so how could they possibly give him a kind look?

Now Yang Ke and Lin Shiyin are deeply in love and are a famous couple in the martial arts world. Yang Ke has not lived in the Li Garden given to him by Li Xunhuan, but has handed it over to Long Xiaoyun, Li Xunhuan's sworn brother, for management.

So even Li Xunhuan and A Fei couldn't say anything, and could only deliberately avoid the topic.

Since Long Xiaoyun had asked Li Xunhuan to return to Li Garden, the two of them naturally did not refuse and had no choice but to go back with him.

Li Xunhuan also wanted to see what Li Garden had become over the years, since it was his former residence, and Lengxiang Xiaozhu was where Lin Shiyin used to live.
