Chapter 1: My Entire Family Are Villains
Chapter 1: My Entire Family Are Villains
“Doctor, please come quickly! My wife vomits every day, and it gets worse whenever she sees me. What could be the matter?”
“Master Chen, your wife is pregnant!”
“Really?”
“Absolutely!”
“Ha ha ha! I, Chen Tianliang, finally have an heir!”
Nearby, a series of voices fluctuated between near and far.
Chen Zhi, in a daze, tried to push away his covers to see which shameless person was making such noise in the middle of the night.
He pushed but couldn't move it.
It felt soft to the touch.
Chen Zhi frowned and, unwilling to give up, gave a strong kick.
“Ouch! This little brat kicked me!”
Immediately, a woman’s pained voice sounded near Chen Zhi's ear.
Then, the earlier laughter resounded again.
“Ha ha ha! As expected of my child, Chen Tianliang’s offspring, kicking people even from the womb? Come on, everyone, leave so my child can rest.”
With the sound of rustling footsteps and a door creaking shut, the world around Chen Zhi fell silent.
“Child? In the womb?”
Chen Zhi’s entire body jolted, his mouth gradually opening wide as a horrifying realization dawned on him.
Hiss!
No way?
Did he transmigrate into a womb?
Or was he reborn into one?
In the next moment, Chen Zhi had his answer.
A gentle hand softly caressed his “home,” and a tender voice spoke:
“My little one, I only hope that after you are born, you will be healthy and safe. As for your cultivation talents and whether you can revitalize our immortal family, none of that matters.”
Chen Zhi quickly picked up on the key terms in this sentence.
Cultivation talent!
Immortal family!
Yes, there was no doubt about it!
And this was a fantasy world where one could cultivate?
Chen Zhi’s heart brightened at once. As an avid reader of web novels in his past life, who didn't dream of cultivating to seek immortality?
Moreover, listen to this: an immortal family!
Clearly, his birth was not ordinary!
However, before Chen Zhi could fully revel in his joy, he recalled something, and his mouth closed slowly, a chill running through his heart.
Wait!
The Chen family of the Immortal Family?
Chen Tianliang, with his sinister laughter?
Damn it!
Isn't this the villain family from the game “The Great Cultivation”?
Chen Zhi had played this cultivation game at least ten times in his previous life and was very familiar with its characters and plot.
Among them, Chen Tianliang’s son, Chen Zhixing, was a key villain NPC in the early stages of the game!
He remembered this character well.
It was this character who, out of jealousy in the early stages, offended the game’s protagonist, leading to his own death and the protagonist gaining power and treasures, setting off the main storyline of the game.
The rest of the story was nothing but a cliché: the Chen family continuously hunted the protagonist, providing him with easy victories and warmth.
It perfectly illustrated the lyric, "Without guns or cannons, the enemy makes them for us."
In the end, the protagonist grew stronger, gathered a harem, and ultimately crushed the Chen family, completing his triumph.
“In the game, Chen Tianliang has only one son. So that means…”
“That miserable cannon fodder used to kickstart the plot is me?”
Chen Zhi’s head buzzed.
When he played the game before, he saw himself as the protagonist, feeling elated and satisfied.
But now, having switched identities to that tragic villain, he could only say one thing…
Family, who would understand this?
“What to do?”
Chen Zhi started racking his brains to find a way out of this predicament.
When the plot reached the point of offending the protagonist, should he just admit defeat and avoid the conflict?
Soon, Chen Zhi shook his head.
Impossible.
“The Great Cultivation” game had nine main storylines, each with a completely different ending.
But each main storyline began uniformly with the protagonist killing Chen Zhixing!
There were even storylines where the Chen family and the protagonist made peace, but none where Chen Zhixing survived.
To put it simply.
As an experience points provider.
The Chen family could live, but Chen Zhixing must die!
“This is beyond absurd!”
Chen Zhi stretched out his tiny hands, swatting away the umbilical cord swaying in front of him and rubbing his forehead in frustration.
“Then, I should cultivate and become stronger so that when I meet the protagonist, I’ll be far more powerful and quickly crush him?”
Chen Zhi started planning a backup plan.
But halfway through, he despondently shook his head again.
In the game, Chen Zhixing was a cultivation failure, with extremely poor comprehension.
When it came to cultivation, it was like he had six blocked senses, utterly clueless.
On the other hand, he was a grandmaster of debauchery and indulgence.
A natural in all sorts of debauchery, excelling to the point of perfection!
Countless gamers in his past life jokingly said: "If the world hadn’t birthed Chen Zhixing, the art of debauchery would be shrouded in eternal darkness!"
“Transmigrating is fine, but why as this character…” Chen Zhi let his hands fall weakly.
This character’s setting could be summed up in one word—
Absolutely pathetic!
Just as Chen Zhi was feeling despondent, he suddenly felt his small abode tighten.
Then, he heard his mother's voice murmuring.
“Yu Bu Gang Dou, palm technique of the eyes, the essence of the Dao, the root of all methods…”
“Embrace the essence, return to oneness…”
“Inhale the true essence of heaven and earth, transform into the primordial…”
“This is the Chen family’s immortal technique, the Primordial Scripture?”
Chen Zhi’s brows twitched slightly.
The “Primordial Scripture” was one of the rare immortal techniques in the entire game. Cultivating it would grant one the Primordial True Force, making them invincible in the same realm.
In the game, the protagonist cultivated the “Primordial Scripture” and became invincible in his realm, even defeating those in higher realms!
Of course.
The pitiful Chen Zhixing, being a total failure, could never comprehend this technique.
“If he couldn’t, naturally I couldn’t either.”
Chen Zhi despondently shook his head, no longer struggling.
Forget it, give up!
If he was doomed to fail at the end, he might as well surrender from the start and save himself the effort.
Ding! Randomly selecting max-level talent for you!
Ding! You have drawn the max-level Extraordinary Comprehension!
Suddenly, a cold notification sounded.
Chen Zhi’s heart leapt.
Before he could react.
You have fully listened to the “Primordial Scripture” and, with Extraordinary Comprehension, extrapolated a higher-level technique: the “Innate Primordial Dao Scripture.”
“Innate Primordial Dao Scripture”: Cultivating it during the fetal stage enhances one’s natural aptitude, compensates for innate deficiencies, and bestows the Innate Primordial Dao Body, allowing the use of the Primordial Force of Heaven and Earth!
“Innate Primordial Dao Body?” Chen Zhi was stunned, then slowly began to smile.
What was this?
Was this the ‘Give up, and luck will come’ law?
