I Am The Fated Villain
Chapter 12: Inciting Discord; Stupid Protagonist!
[In the dim and damp Dungeon.]
Ye Chen cut a pitiful figure with a drooping head and disheveled hair. He has suffered a lot over the last three days in solitude. No one is guarding his cell, nor has anyone come to visit him — as if the world has abandoned him.
His hatred for Gu Changge had broken through the roof, and he could not wait to cut the man into millions of pieces.
But suddenly, a shocked expression appeared on Ye Chen's face as he looked at the person he had cursed so many times over the past three days. The only person he did not want to see was heading towards him, led by a disciple from the Taixuan Holy Land.
"Young Master Gu, everything will be to your liking! This is where we imprisoned Ye Chen all this time."
Gu Changge walked behind the disciple and immediately arrived in front of Ye Chen's cell.
"I understand. You can go now."
Gu Changge indifferently nodded to the disciple, and the disciple did not dare to stay after he heard the order.
Now was a good time to see how well the Protagonist, Ye Chen, did now.
Just one glance alone was enough for him to know that Ye Chen had gone through quite a miserable time after his imprisonment. To please him, the Taixuan Holy Land had ordered Ye Chen to remain aloof.to the point that he had not even been given a single drop of water for the past three days.
The Loved Heavenly Son had a disheveled appearance, and he looked extremely pitiful. Of course, Gu Changge had no intention of showing him any mercy.
After all, the moment Ye Chen gained the ability to deal with him, he would definitely not let go. There was no way Ye Chen could wait to spread his ashes in the world.
"Gu Changge, what do you want?"
Ye Chen roared towards Gu Changge, feeling that his enemy had come with evil intentions. His subconscious mind believed that Gu Changge had come to end his life.
"Obviously, I came to see you."
"ah! That's not true; to be exact, I came to see your Master."
Gu Changge smiled and frankly pointed out Ye Chen's secret.
"You ... What do you mean? I don't understand what you're talking about!"
Ye Chen's complexion paled, and he panicked. Gu Changge's words suddenly shocked him.
After all, how could Gu Changge know about the whereabouts of his Master? It was a secret that no one but him knew!
Ye Chen could not help but feel his limbs turn cold. In front of Gu Changge, he felt like an ant who could not hide his secret.
"Don't try to pretend; do you think you can trick me with that expression on your face?" Gu Changge sneered, and then continued, "Senior, aren't you going to show yourself? Or do you want to overcome this by using a little trick? An Elder like you doing something like that won't look good."
As Gu Changge said those words, his gaze landed on the ring on Ye Chen's finger. This one glance from him made Ye Chen's heart sink. Not only did Gu Changge know about the whereabouts of his Master, but he also knew where his Master was hiding.
"Does Young Master Gu need to humiliate me like this?"
A******** was faintly heard from Ye Chen's current ring. Although his voice sounded pleasant, one could hear the feeling of helplessness that was stringing his words together.
As those words fell, a red burst flashed in front of Gu Changge, and a red-clothed figure emerged from thin air.
"Mastering?"
Ye Chen's expression changed. He had not expected his Master to appear on his own initiative. His sudden actions increased the unease in his heart.
Gu Changge's expression did not change, but he could not help but laugh in his heart. He thought Ye Chen had a portable Grandpa, but it turned out that he had obtained a portable Beauty!
Red pupils and an alluring face... Heaven must have blessed this Ye Chen with a very bad luck to have such a beautiful Master. Well, whatever, he'll soon be hers.
"I wonder what this fellow can do for Young Master Gu?"
Yan Ji asked in a soft voice that was laced with a cold tone. He didn't want to show up, but he had no choice. Since this Gu Changge was able to figure out his whereabouts, then he would naturally also have some way to force him out.
Rather than letting the other party force him out, it would be best if he took the initiative and showed himself.
"Not much, really. I was just curious about the expert behind Ye Chen, and wanted to know who Senior was."
Gu Changge replied as if the truth was what he said.
At least, from the surface, no one could see through his true thoughts. Both Yan Ji and Ye Chen were like that. Although it was like that, Ye Chen believed that Gu Changge had come to meet them with malicious intentions.
He glared at Gu Changge with eyes full of hatred and killing intent.
Yan Ji also did not know the true intent of Gu Changge, so he could only keep watch.
"Then, is Young Master Gu satisfied now that he has seen me? As you can see, I am nothing more than a fleeting female ghost; I am not an expert as you say."
Yan Ji's cold voice sounded again.
"You helped someone as stupid as Ye Chen get all of his current achievements, so why are you putting yourself down like that, Senior?
“Since ancient times, how many pearls have been buried by dust? What they say: A good bird chooses a tree for nesting; a virtuous official chooses a worthy master.
"Senior, won't you waste your talent if you stay by Ye Chen's side?"
Gu Changge showed a sincere smile as he finished his fact-filled speech.
Just now, he was secretly calculating whether he could forcefully take the ring from Ye Chen's hand, but trying to act on his mind had immediately filled his heart with a strong sense of danger.
Gu Changge could not help but curse the misfortune of his dog. On his face, however, he showed no signs of abnormalities.
"Gu Changge, who do you call stupid ..."
Ye Chen's face turned green as he heard Gu Changge's words full of contempt. Worse still was the fact that this bastard did not hesitate as he tried to poach his Master right in front of him.
This Gu Changge is too despicable and shameless!
Still, Ye Chen could not help but panic. What would he do if his Master really left him? He could not imagine his fate if that happened.
On the other hand, Gu Changge's words also shocked Yan Ji. While it was true that Ye Chen was rather boring, he still had other good qualities such as perseverance, courage, tenacity, and the others.
Moreover, he had woken up thanks to Ye Chen, so he couldn't just leave it alone due to a few words from him. What did Gu Changge mean by doing this?
'Instituting discord?'
Yan Ji's complexion changed and he quickly reacted. Inciting discord was probably the real purpose Gu Changge visited them and said all those words.
Although he could see this much, Ye Chen probably could not. In the end, he was indeed just like Gu Changge had described: 'a little stupid.'
