Chapter 1
A woman’s scream sounded in his ears.
As soon as consciousness came, he found himself standing in an unfamiliar garden with a man lying at his feet.
And he was holding a longsword high, in the midst of slashing down.
Fiery anger burned his brain, and an extremely irritable emotion ran rampant throughout his body.
The cry for mercy could be faintly heard, but his mind was dominated by an extremely violent emotion.
There seemed to be an invisible barrier enveloping his body, with everything outside the barrier dull to his perception. Even the sound of begging for mercy seemed to travel a far distance before reaching his ears. Only the anger continuously burns in his mind, wanting to vent regardless of everything.
The long sword swings through the air!
He was about to kill the person under his feet.
At the last moment, the right hand shifted, and the elbow suddenly retracted inward.
Therefore the long sword tilted, the sharp blade tilted away from the chest instead striking his outstretched left hand.
Which he held without hesitation——
On the side of the rockery, the thin lips of a young man in black clothes tightened, making him seem very cold. Fiery anger was burning in his gloomy eyes, which made the originally pale cheeks suffused with flame like crimson.
Tick, tick.
The blood dripped down the palm of the young man and soon merged into a small pool of blood on the ground.
The cold and stinging touch of the palm felt so real.
His face was brimming with violence, then the red of anger faded, gradually recovering his indifference like ice and snow. Every aspect of him exuded frost.
Yuan Buwei finally completely suppressed the out of control mood.
He lowered his eyes and looked coldly at the youth paralyzed from fright beneath his feet. Pupils as dark as ink also become clear, looking without a trace of emotion.
The man shivered from his gaze.
The youth didn’t care about him, only continued to clench the sharp blade in his palm.
Blood dripped down from the wound, and the sharp pain cleared his head, keeping him awake at the edge of the overwhelming emotions, becoming more and more indifferent.
His eyes swept around.
The young man curled up at his feet looked about 20 years old. Originally blue royal clothes were stained with a lot of dirt because he rolled on the ground. His handsome face was also covered in a layer of gray.
Seeing that Yuan no longer paid attention to him, his body trembled slightly, and his face showed an indelible expression of fear.
“Your, your highness…”
The young man’s voice was filled with tears. As soon as he jumped up, wanting to hug his thigh, he was kicked to the ground.
“Don’t, don’t kill me, I don’t dare anymore…”
Not far from the two, a naked girl was leaning against the foot of the rockery and sobbing. Her shoulders trembled, she looked too frightened to speak.
What happened is clear at a glance.
After a moment of silent contemplation, Yuan Buwei sorted the memory in his mind, confirming his hypothesis.
This is a small world that is obviously different from the world he used to live in. It does not have the cultivation methods or monsters he is familiar with. Instead it is similar to a world where there are only weak mortals. Now he is in Beili, the strongest Dynasty in this world.
This body’s identity is even more extraordinary. His name is Qi Mingxuan and he is the crown prince of Beili.
Qi Mingxuan didn’t know the two people on the ground. This fiasco also originated from a coincidence.
Today the eldest princess hosted a banquet, inviting people to visit her new garden. The crown prince Qi Mingxuan, is also invited.
Qi Mingxuan joined the army young and spent many years fighting for Beili. Recently, accumulated old injuries were aggravated so he briefly returned to recuperate .
It never occurred to him that while casually strolling through the garden, he encountered someone bold enough to drag a maid directly to the rockery. Despite her struggles, he wanted to commit misconduct in broad daylight.
When he heard the cry of the maidservant, he immediately took action.
According to Qi Mingxuan’s original intention, he just wanted to teach the bold man a lesson. Unexpectedly while taking action, he suddenly lost control.
The anger in his body seemed to have been magnified more than ten times in an instant. Once the irritable anger stirred, he uncontrollably pulled out the long sword at his waist.
Therefore, after the arrival of Yuan Buwei, the scene became like this.
[Detected that the host has reached the target plane, plot is loading…]
The mechanical voice of system 999 came late.
A translucent light curtain appeared in front of the Yuan Buwei, densely packed small characters scrolled over the light curtain like a waterfall, exuding a faint glow.
[In the ninth year of Yongjia, jiehu invaded past the border. The mountains and rivers fell, and the emperor’s fled south. On his way to the south, Qi Haimeng, the emperor of Beili, was enlightened by the heavens. He changed his foolish demeanor, becoming a wise emperor who reorganized the country in ten years, and finally recovered the Central Plains. He recaptured the capital and changed the era to Yuanping.]
[Returned to the Central Plains, after Qi Hai became enlightened, the officials gradually turned their attention to Prince Qi Mingxuan, the heir to the throne.]
[Qi Mingxuan was originally fifth in line for the throne. In the ninth year of Yongjia, on the run to the south, four brothers died one after another. Qi Mingxuan, the 13-year-old fifth prince, became the only child of the emperor left.]
[He is intelligent and studious, heroic and unwavering. After the emperor raised the banner of reorganizing the country, as the crown prince, he led by example. Joining the army at the age of 15. In eight years, he remained invincible and defeated several strong enemies, almost conquering half a country alone. His nickname as the god of war spread throughout the country.]
[Upon his return to the capital, Qi Mingxuan was naturally coronated as crown prince, along with the title of Shenwu general and granted a Shenwu Mansion to live in.]
[His status as crown prince is noble. He left the front line and stayed in the capital to recuperate old injuries…]
[During his recuperation, the prince became increasingly arrogant, violent and cruel. He often killed people, whipped ministers in court and opposed the Emperor… He gradually lost support. But all the other princes are too young to compete with the crown prince. So the crown prince became more and more unscrupulous.]
[In the third year of Yuanping, the emperor became seriously ill. Just before his death, he called the crown prince Qi Mingxuan into the palace. After the emperor died, crown prince Qi Mingxuan was enthroned as emperor.]
Reading to this point, Yuan Buwei’s expression showed no changes, he had seen many ups and downs.
And the words on the light curtain are still scrolling down like flowing water——
[This is a story of overthrowing a tyrant…]
[The real protagonist is the sixth prince Qi Yu, the younger brother of the tyrant Qi Mingxuan. He was young and intelligent, and was favored by the emperor. He was titled the king of Chu, but he did not participate much in politics. Regarding himself as a dandy who liked to be carefree.]
[Four years after the tyrant ascended the throne, he collected tax recklessly, with fierce methods, creating many complaints among the people. Rumours that he killed his father to usurp the throne began to spread.]
[At this time, Qi Yu accidentally met Su Xuer, the daughter of the prime minister. They met and fell in love with each other. However, Su Xuer already had an engagement with the tyrant and was soon to be wed.]
[On the wedding day, Qi Yu, the king of Chu, planned to siege the palace. With his hidden military force, he captured the palace in one fell swoop. The tyrant, who was unjust and had no supporters, burned himself to death in the depths of the Tai Chi hall.]
[Prime minister Su, an elder who lived through three dynasties, took out the secret decree of the former Emperor, and the Empress Dowager also testified that Qi Yu was the real heir of the former Emperor. Therefore, Qi Yu ascended the dragon throne and made Su Xu’er the queen.]
[Plot has finished loading, the identity of the host is Prince Qi Minxuan, the future tyrant.]
The waterfall-like subtitles disappeared bit by bit, and the mechanical sound of system 999 rang again.
[The task is to clear the villain’s name and no longer compete with the protagonist. Keep your morals and be a good person.]
Each of the above paragraphs is like a brief introduction. After clicking, you can see a more detailed plot.
Yuan Buwei found this all very interesting.
Seeing this, the system 999 is relieved.
… finally found a reliable host!
Before binding, the system coincidentally bypassed a world. When it saw the host, system 999 was almost blinded by his dazzling merit halo.
After secretly observing and finding out about the series of good deeds of Yuan Buwei in the original world, system 999 is even more satisfied.
Showing its love for the new host, it encourages:
[Host, come on. In your native world, you should have been the son of destiny. As the son of destiny chosen by fate before birth, it’s too difficult for you to be a villain. But since you once saved the world, isn’t it easy for you to purify the villain and be a righteous person? The host simply needs to be himself ah.]
… the son of destiny???
Hearing this familiar title, surprise flashed across Yuan Buwei’s eyes.
It seems that the system seems to have a big misunderstanding about him?
No wonder it would be so bold and presumptuous to bind him as the host :).
Some interesting thoughts flashed in his mind, but he didn’t explain. Instead he asked faintly in his consciousness “Just need to be myself? I see.”
… just hope that this system will not feel regret in the future.
System 999 is gratified.
The new host is really good. World saviors are all well behaved sweeties (* ^ ^ *).
Whether viewing the plot or talking to the system 999, all this happened in Yuan Buwei’s consciousness and the time it took in reality is less than three seconds.
Yuan Buwei regained his bearings and looked down at the man curled up at his feet.
He is the only son of the Prime Minister of the current Dynasty. His name is Su Mingyou. He has always been unscrupulous and domineering in the capital. He is an infamous prodigal son.
Normally speaking, with Qi Mingxuan’s identity, he should have no intersection with such prodigal sons. In fact, they had not met at all before today.
But in the plot sent by the system, what happened today firmly linked the two people who were incompatible like fire and water.
——If it hadn’t been for Yuan Buwei, this guy would have been killed by Qi Mingxuan, the original body in a rampage!
This is also the beginning of Qi Mingxuan’s violent reputation.
The system 999 makes a timely reminder: [It begins with saving a single life, directly reversing one of the most important turning points in the villain’s life. The host has taken a big step towards not being a tyrant. As expected of you!]
What newcomers need most is encouragement from the system, not to mention encouraging such a sweetie (* ^ ^ *). System 999 knows its role.
Yuan Buwei: “…”
Just now, he instinctively held the blade empty handed. It was not a sudden kindness to save people, he just couldn’t stand the feeling that his behavior was out of his control.
Whether he kills or saves people, it’s his decision.
But this does not have to be explained to the system.
So he looked at the young man on the ground and said with laughter in his voice: “I’m sorry to inform you…”
As he spoke, he slowly rubbed the long sword in his hand, and seemed to want to continue the sword swing that had been interrupted.
The system 999 quickly said: [No, no, no, host calm down! The overall situation is important, but it’s just a small cannon fodder. Even if he really deserves to die, it’s not worth dirtying the host’s hands. He has a violent reputation like the original body.]
“… the overall situation?”
Yuan Buwei said these two words gently. Suddenly, he looked up after hearing footsteps approaching.
Along the bluestone path next to the rockery, came the sound of many disordered footsteps, probably people attracted by the girl’s cry rushed over one after another.
“What’s the matter?”
“What happened?”
Turning the bend of the rockery, everyone was stunned.
The rays of the setting sun fell gently, the light shone on a tall and straight figure, unable to melt the frost and snow like chill on his face.
He seemed to turn his head at the sound and looked at the people. There was still faint murderous intent in his eyes.
A bloody sword was held upside down in his hand.
Everyone was struck in place.
The author has something to say:
1. The system may not be pleasant, but it can’t control the protagonist. Don’t care about it.
[in the first world, the system has a strong sense of existence, then will gradually decrease later!]
If the max power level of the whole cosmic sea is level 100, the protagonist is level 97, which is equivalent to the existence of gods in the original world. This article is about how the protagonist makes trouble in various worlds and successfully rises from level 97 to level 100.
The system thought it forcibly bound the protagonist. In fact, the protagonist didn’t resist.
2. The protagonist is not the reincarnation of the son of destiny.
3. The fate story seen by the protagonist is equivalent to a kind of prediction.
It is knowing in advance what would happen to Qi Mingxuan, not what had happened in previous lives. If it has happened, does the whole world turn back time for one person, just to let the protagonist return to the present and change Qi Mingxuan’s fate?
In short, there is no tragic past life. The so-called fate plot is all a prediction of the future. But prediction is only prediction after all. The arrival of the protagonist will lead to a butterfly effect. See in advance that someone has become a murderer ten years later, but the butterfly effect caused by the protagonist may also affect others’ fate and make them a good man in the future.
