An Unexpected Turn: Villain Becomes Dad - Chapter 179

Chapter 179

Yang Chen looked at Chu Xi. In her eyes, he saw gratitude, surprise, and a trace of shyness.

He chuckled.

Although the “hero saves the beauty” routine was rather clichéd, for many women, the act stood genuinely irresistible. Especially when the one who saved them was a handsome, graceful man with profound cultivation, noble status, and a polite, humble demeanor. Adding to that, there was already a hint of affection beforehand.

Now, that feeling expanded infinitely, erupting into a deep admiration.

Yang Chen, though secretly pleased, maintained a calm expression. Walking over to Chu Xi’s side, he said with genuine concern, “Junior Sister Chu Xi, you’re injured!”

“Thank you, Senior Brother Yang, for rescuing me; otherwise, my life would have ended today! The injury isn’t too serious!”

“Ah!”

Before Chu Xi could finish speaking, Yang Chen’s hand had already placed itself on her blood-stained shoulder.

Yang Chen, now cultivating in body refinement, had qi and blood as vigorous as a dragon’s. Additionally, his blood contained that of the Divine Dragon, possessing numerous miraculous effects. Beyond its unparalleled offensive capabilities, it also held remarkable healing properties.

A surge of pure blood energy covered the wound on Chu Xi’s shoulder. Immediately, the lingering sword intent in the wound was purified by this blood energy. The wound began healing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

“This … Senior Brother Yang!” Chu Xi’s beautiful eyes widened instantly.

Clearly, she hadn’t expected Yang Chen to possess such abilities. However, as Yang Chen’s hand rested on her shoulder, the warmth that radiated from it made Chu Xi’s cheeks flush and burn with a touch of shyness.

Her beautiful eyes glanced at Yang Chen from time to time, but she quickly averted her gaze each time. Her heart was in a flurry, like a young deer dashing about wildly.

Lying on the ground nearby was Xiao Dong. At first, seeing his sister about to sacrifice herself to save him from Zhan Yunxuan’s sword had his heart up in his throat. Only when he saw her rescued did he let out a long sigh of relief. But then, his face darkened immediately.

Because the one who saved his sister was that damn Yang Chen. And that bastard actually dared to lay his filthy hands on his sister’s fair shoulder, moving them back and forth.

“Ah! Bastard!” Xiao Dong’s face contorted in rage.

His sister was his cherished, untouchable treasure! How could she be touched by another man? Anyone who laid a hand on his sister, he would cut off their hands!

Ever since he grew up, although his sister still looked after him, she also kept her distance. Now, even he couldn’t touch his sister’s shoulder if he wanted to. But this bastard dared to do so. And worse, his sister didn’t reject him.

Unforgivable! She must be too embarrassed to refuse.

After all, this bastard had just saved her. A despicable scoundrel taking advantage of the situation.

I swear I’ll kill you, you son of a—!

Xiao Dong gritted his teeth in fury, his heart filled with intense jealousy. His face flushed red. Suddenly, his throat felt a surge of sweetness, and he spat out a mouthful of blood.

Initially, being suppressed by Zhan Yunxuan and then using all his strength to break free had already strained his Pure Yang Sacred Physique’s core, which was now accelerating its healing.

However, this surge of fierce jealousy caused him to spit out blood, scattering his inner energy, and the core of his Pure Yang Sacred Physique, which he had worked so hard to condense, now showed signs of breaking apart again.

“What’s happening!? Damn it! I went through so much to condense this core—nothing must go wrong now!”

Xiao Dong quickly steadied his mind, focusing on stabilizing his core.

[Ding! Xiao Dong witnessed the host gently touching Chu Xi’s shoulder, which filled him with jealousy and damaged his state of mind. As a result, the condensation of the Pure Yang Sacred Physique core halted. 2,000 points of Providence Luck has been plundered from Xiao Dong. The Host has gained 2000 VPs!].

Hmm?

Hearing the system’s notification, Yang Chen couldn’t help but let a faint smile play on his lips. He glanced briefly at Xiao Dong lying on the ground.

This outcome was somewhat unexpected.

He hadn’t anticipated that merely a simple, gentle touch to heal would not only damage Xiao Dong’s state of mind but also halt the condensation of his Pure Yang Sacred Physique core. And he’d instantly plundered 2,000 points of his Providence Luck.

He chuckled softly. This was only a gentle touch to Chu Xi’s shoulder. If he were to go further with Chu Xi, or even reach complete intimacy … how many fortune points could he possibly plunder?

Yang Chen was already looking forward to it.
