Chapter 19: Liu Yuning's Younger Brother:
"Master, I can help you kill Ye Yang." Ji Moxue said to Chu Mochen after they returned home from the teahouse.
No matter how Ye Yang had offended Chu Mochen, Ji Moxue was willing to take action if Chu Mochen wanted him dead.
"Even though you're stronger than him, you may not be able to kill him. Remember, don't act on your own." Chu Mochen advised.
Although Ye Yang was only at the early stage of the Dark Qi Realm, Ji Moxue might not be able to kill him. Even Chu Mochen, who was at the peak of Dark Qi Realm, might fail.
With the protection of luck, Ye Yang could escape danger. If Chu Mochen had a few martial artists at the Transforming Qi Realm under his command, he wouldn't mind making a move against Ye Yang.
However, martial artists at the transformation stage were as rare as pandas in the martial arts world. The Chu family wasn't a martial arts family. Even if they could recruit some martial artists, most of them would be at the Bright Qi Realm, with a few at the Dark Qi Realm.
Moreover, even if Chu Mochen could kill Ye Yang now, he couldn't take action because Ye Yang had a master. If Ye Yang's master found out that Ye Yang had died at Chu Mochen's hands, he would definitely seek revenge.
A peak Transforming Qi Realm martial artist was nearly invincible in a big city. Chu Mochen would only act against Ye Yang when he had the confidence to kill Ye Tianhua.
"When I see Ye Yang again, I will check his luck." Chu Mochen said. He could use villain points to check other people's information. He wanted to see how much luck Ye Yang had.
Chu Mochen's phone rang.
It was a call from Ah Li.
Chu Mochen had previously arranged for Ah Li and Ah Hu to monitor Ye Yang, so Ah Li must have something to report.
"Master, I have something to report."
"What is it? Speak." Chu Mochen replied.
"Ye Yang had a conflict with the young master of the Liu family, and they are fighting now. Should we intervene?" Ali asked.
"The young master of the Liu family, Liu Xiaotian?" Chu Mochen instantly thought of Liu Yuning's younger brother.
"Yes, it's Liu Xiaotian. Ah Hu and I discussed it and planned to kill Liu Xiaotian using the Dark Qi Realm and frame Ye Yang," Ah Li suggested a vicious plan.
They would kill Liu Xiaotian and frame Ye Yang. Since they had just had a conflict and Ye Yang had indeed hit Liu Xiaotian, even the Liu family, who favored Ye Yang, wouldn't be able to accept it and would definitely turn against him.
Chu Mochen pondered for a moment.
The plan was indeed sinister.
If the framing succeeded, even Liu Zhong couldn't tolerate it, and Liu Yuning's impression of Ye Yang would worsen.
However, Liu Xiaotian was also a peculiar character.
As the most pampered young master of the Liu family, he was unskilled and far less capable than his sister.
This time, he was causing trouble for Ye Yang because Zhao Jie, whose leg Ye Yang had broken, was his good friend.
According to the original plotline, Liu Xiaotian had repeatedly caused trouble for Ye Yang because of this, but after being taught a lesson several times by Ye Yang, he became Ye Yang's lackey and later helped Ye Yang pursue his sister, Liu Yuning.
"For now, leave him be. Call the police and report the fight." Chu Mochen finally decided not to let Ah Li and Ah Hu act.
He was worried they might expose themselves and lose more than they gained.
Ah Li and Ah Hu weren't professional assassins, and if they actually committed murder, they would likely leave many clues, especially when targeting the protagonist. He would first have Ye Yang sent back to jail to earn more villain points. Additionally, Liu Xiaotian might still have some use.
About ten minutes after hanging up, the pleasant sound of the system echoed in Chu Mochen's ears.
[Ding! Ye Yang has been arrested again. Luck plundered: 100, Villain points: +5000]
"Wow, I didn't expect to get so many villain points this time and even plunder some luck." Chu Mochen was a bit surprised.
He hadn't considered the subsequent impact of sending Ye Yang back to jail. This time, Ye Yang had fought with Liu Xiaotian.
According to the original plotline, after being beaten, Liu Xiaotian didn't tell his father, but this time it couldn't be hidden. This would undoubtedly lead to Liu Cheng disliking Ye Yang, and Liu Yuning's impression of Ye Yang would worsen.
"System, use 100 luck points for a luck lottery." Chu Mochen decided to use up the 100 luck points to test his luck.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining a bottle of Low-Grade Potential Burst Pills]
"Potential Burst Pills?"
Chu Mochen checked and understood their effect.
They could temporarily increase a person's strength. Even an ordinary person could reach the peak stage of the Dark Qi Realm after taking them. However, the price for this power was extremely high. For an ordinary person, using them meant they wouldn't live more than three minutes before dying.
"This stuff is definitely not for personal use." Chu Mochen concluded. It was too dangerous. Although it could provide a temporary power boost, the cost wasn't comparable to the power gained. Besides, it could only enhance strength up to the peak Dark Qi Realm, making it useless for Chu Mochen. It was probably because it was a low-grade pill.
"As expected, spending 100 luck points doesn't get you anything good," Chu Mochen thought. Although the system mentioned a chance to get good items, the odds seemed lower than winning the lottery.
"System, if I deplete my luck points, will I become unlucky?" Chu Mochen was tempted to use the remaining 1000 luck points but worried about becoming unlucky.
"It will not affect the host. Please rest assured." The system replied.
"In that case, let's do a 1000 luck points lottery." Chu Mochen decided.
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for obtaining: a copy of the Nine Yang Divine Skill]
Looking at the manual in front of him, Chu Mochen felt a headache coming on.
"Can I even practice this?" He wondered. The martial artists in his world were completely different from those in martial arts novels. He wasn't sure if he could practice the Nine Yang Divine Skill.
"The host can practice it," the system assured him.
"That's good," Chu Mochen felt relieved. He didn't have the time to practice slowly, and relying on himself might not lead to mastery.
Although he was a bit disappointed that it was the Nine Yang Divine Skill from 'The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber' rather than 'The Dragon-Tiger Gate,' his luck was still pretty good. Even the 'Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber' version was powerful.
The manual was in ancient Chinese, but thanks to the system, Chu Mochen had no trouble understanding it.
"System, can I use villain points to master the Nine Yang Divine Skill?" Chu Mochen asked.
"Yes, as long as the host has enough villain points, it can be directly elevated to perfection." the system replied.
Knowing this, Chu Mochen felt reassured. Slowly practicing the skill was not something he had the time for, and he might not even reach perfection on his own.
Obtaining the Nine Yang Divine Skill was a stroke of luck.
Even the version from 'The Heaven Sword and Dragon Saber' was immensely powerful, providing continuous internal energy, powerful defense, and immunity to poisons.
