Chapter 1: The Villainous Eldest Senior Brother of the Divine Phoenix Peak

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

“His eyes are like bright stars, his nose is like a hanging gall, and his facial features are like carvings of a god. He’s invulnerable…”

“You’re the villain, Brother! Is it necessary to be this handsome?”

Beside the water stream, a tall, handsome young man clad in snow-white was gazing at his reflection in the water, muttering to himself.

The young man’s name was Lin Xiao.

15 years had passed.

The current Lin Xiao had gradually accepted his character role in this life!

Yes, he had transmigrated!

However, what was ridiculous was that he had transmigrated to a harem novel he had read in his previous life, into a scumbag villain with the same name as him!

As the eldest disciple of the Divine Phoenix Peak in the Azure Mist Immortal Sect, one of the eight cultivation orthodoxies of the Eastern Region of the Central Continent…

His cultivation level was mediocre, he was indolent, and his character was rotten. Even dogs would shake their heads upon seeing him!

His daily routine consists of idling around and bullying others. Today, he would tease his junior brother. Tomorrow, he would take advantage of a few beautiful junior sisters. He did not have the quality of an immortal sect!

It could be said that the only thing outstanding about the evildoer was this heaven-defying face!

But in Lin Xiao’s opinion.

The reason why the damn author made him, the villain, so attractive, was to provide a contrast to the protagonist and give the story an added level of drama!

After all, everyone had the right to punish these hypocritical scoundrels!

Yet.

Although he knew that his true colors would be exposed time and time again by the protagonist, that he would be beaten up by his beautiful master and a few of his junior sisters, that he would become a cripple, and that in the end he would go into despair and commit suicide…

However, Lin Xiao looked forward to this day!

Yes, like all transmigrators, Lin Xiao was under a system—a lazy villain System!

This dang system told him that as long as he followed the original plot and fulfilled his role as the villain, he would be able to transcend this world, become immortal, and travel myriads of worlds!

Speaking of which.

What attracted Lin Xiao the most was not the immortal ascension in the far future, but—

The ability to transcend this world and travel freely across a myriad of worlds!

Yes, once he obtained this ability, it also meant that he could finally return to the Blue Planet and reunite with his family!

In his previous life, although his family was not rich, he had parents who loved him and a cute, sensible sister!

After having transmigrated for more than ten years, Lin Xiao always wanted to return to his family’s side!

As for whether he was an immortal or a mortal in doing so…

‘That’s not important!’

“System! I can’t take it anymore. Tell me quickly, when is the protagonist, Ye Chen, going to pay his respects!”

“This villain does such dirty things every day, I’m about to vomit!”

Lin Xiao was speechless.

Ding!

“The system has already given the host a perfect memory. Please recall the plot yourself!”

A cold, electronic voice rang in his head.

Lin Xiao became more speechless.

There was no point in keeping this careless system!

But then again.

This book was named “Emperor Supremacy”, a typical web novel with a Gary Stu male lead. Lin Xiao had, unfortunately, read it back when he was a muddle-headed youth.

At that time, he had stayed up all night reading the book. It was indeed satisfying, to read the protagonist’s pretentious triumphs and victories.

But the novel became serialized in the middle.

The protagonist, Ye Chen, had a beautiful harem, but he never moved past the flirting stage with all the girls. He was like a eunuch, it truly disgusted Lin Xiao!

In the later stages, the strength system and the characters were destroyed. Later on, upon hearing that the author had found a ghostwriter, Lin Xiao stopped reading.

“Although my knowledge of this book’s story is only the two million words in the first eight volumes…”

“However, my storyline was completed in the first one million words. What happens in the later stages has nothing to do with me.”

Lin Xiao felt slightly relieved.

Then, he sat cross-legged and recalled the following plot…

“In the year 851 of the Vast Earth Calendar, in Lidong, the Great Zhou Dynasty’s Empress Wu Yue began her attack on the mighty Beichuan King, Ye Qingtian.”

“First, she issued an edict beheading the 81 families of the Ye clan, who were still in the imperial capital, for treason. Only Ye Qingtian’s legitimate son, the heir of Beichuan, Ye Chen, escaped from the Great Zhou with the help of a mysterious old man’s remnant soul stored in a ring.”

“Then, under the guidance of this mysterious grandfather, Ye Chen ran from the Great Empress’s pursuit while heading to the Immortal Sects in the Eastern region. The Qinglan Immortal Sect there acknowledged him as their master…”

“851, Lidong…”

“That means tomorrow!”

“Ye Chen, Ye Chen, I’ve finally waited for you. Don’t disappoint me!”

After waiting so painstakingly for more than ten years, Lin Xiao was overjoyed. The worry on his face dissipated immediately!

He leisurely brewed a pot of fairy tea, tasting it as he recalled the rest of the plot:

“According to the opening plot in the book, Ye Chen will already be staying at the Cloud Inn in Taoyuan Village, in front of the Azure Mist Sect, tonight.”

“At around midnight, the spirit beast raised by Fourth Junior Sister Lu Yingying will get shocked by the thunder emitted when she broke through to the Foundation Establishment Realm. The beast will then run down the mountain.”

“Just as Fourth Junior Sister fell into despair looking for her beloved pet, the well-rounded male lead, Ye Chen —who could refine pills, weapons, and beasts— successfully controlled the spirit beast and handed it to Fourth Junior Sister unharmed.”

“Upon meeting for the first time, the young boy and the young girl started to develop feelings for each other…”

“No, to be precise, Fourth Junior Sister will develop a good impression of Ye Chen. As for Ye Chen, being a male lead in ancient times, his imagination will run wild upon seeing a fair fox demon! He’s worse than a beast!”

“Anyway, after the two of them exchange their beast-taming insights, they will regret not meeting sooner.”

“When Fourth Junior Sister learns of Ye Chen’s motive for this trip, she will be even more excited to bring him up the mountain personally.”

“I will happen to see the two of them walking together!”

“Then, I’ll get jealous and will be prepared to poison him!”

“However, I will be caught by the sharp-eyed Second Junior Sister Guo Yourong and will be exposed on the spot!”

“After that, I’ll begin spouting nonsense and scolding Ye Chen for being trash. Ye Chen will propose to duel with me. With the help of the old grandpa in the ring, he, a Qi Refinement cultivator, will defeat me, a Foundation Establishment cultivator. From then on, Ye Chen’s name will send shockwaves through the entire sect, while I, Lin Xiao, will have my dignity killed on the spot!”

“Tsk tsk, this taste of drama is even stronger than pickled vegetables. As expected of a typical period Gary Stu novel.”

“However…”

“Isn’t there a missing plot somewhere in the middle?”

Lin Xiao frowned.

He was deep in thought.

Halfway down the mountain, Junior Brother Huai Zhen’s voice sounded.

“Eldest Senior Brother, are you up there?”

“It’s your turn to fulfill your filial duties to Master today!”

Hearing this, Lin Xiao had a realization, his eyebrows relaxed!

“That’s it!”

“Before Ye Chen pays his respects, there’s another small scene!”

“I went to clean the Beautiful Master’s room tonight. Under the temptation of lust, I couldn’t help but steal Master’s white silk stockings and hide them in my trouser pocket. When I fight with Ye Chen the next day, it will be brought out by the latter’s spirit pet, the sable!”

“This will lead to an uproar, and my reputation will be ruined!”

“But…”

“Stealing my master’s underwear… This is too much!”

Lin Xiao gritted his teeth and fell into a dilemma.

“Forget it! It’s a fictional novel world anyway!”

“To maintain my villainous persona, I’ve been doing shady business for so many years…”

“This is just stealing socks! Get her!”

In an instant, Lin Xiao’s eyes sharpened, his entire body emitting a destructive aura!

Much like the villain in the novel!

The Azure Mist Immortal Sect was located atop Azure Mist Mountain, in the eastern region of the Central Continent.

The Azure Mist Mountain Range stretched over thousands of kilometers, with peaks rising and falling. At a glance, one could see five main peaks floating in the air. Auspicious clouds surrounded them, and waterfalls and strange rocks flew. Beasts cried out and resembled a group of immortals.

The five main peaks were named Phoenix’s Cry, Divine Phoenix, Crimson Cloud, Heavenly Chi, and Dragon Head.

Each main peak had a First Seat presiding over the preaching.

Lin Xiao’s beautiful master, who was known as the number one female cultivator in the Eastern Region, lived at the Goddess Cliff, which was located at the steepest area of the Divine Phoenix Peak.

“Whoosh ~”

Lin Xiao rode his sword, crossing three spiritual energy bridges. After consuming most of his vital essence, he finally arrived at the Goddess Cliff.

The cliff was filled with colorful spiritual herbs. There was a small purple bamboo forest beside it, with a waterfall in the middle that flowed down into a river, drawing up a poetic and picturesque scene.

“Usually, when I see my junior sisters going to the Fairy Cliff to fulfill their filial duties, they would arrive in a flash. I’ve been flying for most of the day and am exhausted. I’m useless.”

“Looks like I have to finish the storyline as soon as possible and get rid of this scumbag persona!”

Lin Xiao shook his head and walked towards the wooden house that was decorated with pink flowers.

This was the residence of his master, Xiao Hongling.

Despite being one of the five Chiefs, Xiao Hongling’s personality was completely different from that of the other Chiefs.

She had a carefree disposition and a penchant for alcohol. Though she was hundreds of years old, she occasionally made innocent gestures reminiscent of a young girl. She was also quite narcissistic about her looks.

Of course, she, who was known as the number one beauty in the Eastern Region, did have the right to do so.

In addition, Xiao Hongling’s attitude towards her disciples was rather casual. She lacked the seriousness of a teacher.

But that didn’t mean she didn’t care about her disciples!

‘On the contrary!’

This woman was extremely protective!

Lin Xiao remembered clearly.

At the beginning of the original novel, after the villainous Eldest Senior Brother, Lin Xiao, was defeated by the male lead, Ye Chen, and was exposed for his poison attempt and stocking stealing.

The entire Azure Mist Sect was furious!

Sect Master Zi Yun even personally ordered that Lin Xiao’s cultivation be crippled and that Lin Xiao be expelled from the sect!

At this moment, Xiao Hongling, who had been in seclusion all year round, came out of seclusion early. She went against the Sect Master in public and protected Lin Xiao, lightening his punishment to three years of confinement.

However, after the male lead, Ye Chen, joined the sect, Lin Xiao, as the villain, was embarrassed repeatedly. His heart became even more twisted and manic. In the end, he did a series of crazy actions that completely disappointed Xiao Hongling. She had no choice but to personally sever his spiritual root and cripple him as a mortal.

But in the end, she still couldn’t bear to kill him.

In the middle of the story, this Eldest Senior Brother, hated by both his junior sisters and his master, committed suicide on Goddess Cliff.

As for the male lead, Ye Chen, he naturally took off and won the hearts of Lin Xiao’s three junior sisters. In the end, even his beautiful master, Xiao Hongling, could not resist his charms!

Although the original author did not allow the protagonist to have any actual physical relationship with these female protagonists to draw in lazy cash and lure readers into investing more money into the story.

However, Lin Xiao was still a little unhappy!

What right did he have?

Just because this idiot Ye Chen was the protagonist, he could make the four ravishing beauties fall in love with him at the same time?

“Let’s not think about it. After all, this is a world of fiction!”

“What I need to do now is follow the villain script to the end, get the system reward, and ascend back to the real world!”

Lin Xiao affirmed himself in his heart.

Then he crept into the house.

A soft, warm fragrance wafted over.

It smelled like flowers, but it also smelled like a woman who had applied makeup.

“According to the original plot, Xiao Hongling should be in seclusion at the Lotus Cave Abode under the waterfall.”

“And I, Lin Xiao, went to Master’s bedroom after smelling this fragrance!”

Lin Xiao recalled the plot of the novel as he decisively pushed open the bedroom door!

He glanced around.

He saw a pair of pure snow-white, ice-silk stockings casually placed on the edge of the bed.

“There’s actually someone who’s into this? And it is his master’s clothes?”

“This Lin Xiao is such a f*cking pervert!”

Lin Xiao cursed in his heart and hesitated for a while before putting the pair of stockings into his pocket.
