Perfect Villain Life: Universal Job Change - Chapter 23

Chapter 23: A Chance to Turn the Tables on Qin Xian? 

“The news report states that at 4 PM this afternoon, an urgent incident occurred at the Yaoshan Market in our city.”

“A level 52 Void Cultist, who had been hiding in the Donghai city area for many years, was finally discovered. The Imperial Police Department, the Order Department, and our Donghai City Police Bureau jointly carried out a law enforcement operation. After a tough battle, they killed the Void Cultist.”

“Despite evacuation efforts, this sudden conflict still caused significant damage, leading to the death and injury of many innocent citizens.”

“In response, Governor Chen Beiguo issued important instructions, demanding that relevant departments immediately activate emergency mechanisms, organize rescue operations with full force, properly handle the aftermath, and quickly determine the cause, while also providing comfort and services to the families of the victims…”

Donghai City’s television station continuously broadcasted this news. Tonight, Donghai City was destined not to be peaceful.

As the capital of the Donghai Province and a major economic hub of the Empire, Donghai City has always been known for its development and safety. However, the chaos that erupted in the city today would undoubtedly shock the entire nation!

Because of this, even though Chen Beiguo was dissatisfied with Qin Xian, he had no choice but to admit that Lin Yu was indeed a Void Cultist. Otherwise, he would have no way to explain it!

But even so, Chen Beiguo, as the governor of Donghai, still suffered a significant blow to his reputation.

…

As for Lin Feng he returned to his home. After Qin Xian killed Lin Yu, he looted all the equipment from Lin Yu’s body, leaving only a solitary corpse.

The body of his adoptive father, Lin Yu, had already been properly dealt with and buried in a cemetery on the outskirts of the city.

In official terms, Lin Yu was defined as a Void Cultist and was not even qualified to be buried. However, with Chen Lingxi’s help, the process went smoothly, and it was completed within a few hours.

Chen Lingxi, watching the devastated Lin Feng, was deeply worried. The college entrance exam was tomorrow, and if Lin Feng remained in this state, it would be difficult for him to achieve good results.

Chen Lingxi spoke softly, “Lin Feng, don’t think too much about it. Focus on preparing for tomorrow’s exam.”

Hearing Chen Lingxi’s words, Lin Feng finally came back to his senses and nodded, “Thank you, Teacher Chen. It’s getting late; you should go back…”

Chen Lingxi nodded and then turned to leave. Tomorrow was the college entrance exam, and as a teacher at Yizhong, she had a lot to prepare, especially since Lin Feng wasn’t her only student.

After Chen Lingxi left, Lin Feng was the only one left in the house. He had never felt so lonely before and he sat motionless in his chair, like a statue.

From now on, no matter how vast the world, he was all alone.

As the clock struck midnight, signaling the start of a new day, Lin Feng muttered under his breath, “Qin Xian…”

His voice was filled with venom and hatred. He had never hated anyone as much as he hated Qin Xian. He not only wanted to kill Qin Xian, but he also wanted to torture him mercilessly, making him experience the most brutal pain!

Lin Feng knew that he was still very weak. At level 4, he was nothing more than an ant, and thinking of revenge was nothing more than a fantasy!

His only hope now was to get into Jixia Academy and gain its protection. Then, he would continue to bide his time, eventually seeking out His Majesty the Emperor in the Void…

This was the path his adoptive father, Lin Yu, had hoped he would take. Lin Feng couldn’t help but take out the Arcane Source he carried with him. The source emitted an eerie purple glow, casting his face in an equally strange purple hue.

A flicker of madness flashed in Lin Feng’s eyes.

Is a gentleman’s revenge not too late even after ten years? No! For him, every second was agony!

And he knew that Qin Xian wouldn’t simply allow him to grow stronger. The Qin family was after the Arcane Source, and the source was in his possession. Qin Xian would undoubtedly come to seize it!

Lin Feng clenched the source tightly. When that time comes, it would be his opportunity!

…

The chaos that erupted in Donghai City naturally attracted immense attention. However, for the parents of senior high school students, nothing mattered more than today’s college entrance exam.

After all, today’s exam would determine the future of their children.

In Donghai City, at the Temple of Apocalypse.

In front of the Temple of Apocalypse, a massive crowd had gathered, all of them students who were there to take the college entrance exam.

The exam venue was within the Temple of Apocalypse itself. The candidates would participate in a special selection designed for the college entrance exam, and the system would then provide scores for the candidates.

Subsequently, representatives from various academies would combine these scores with the candidates’ specific performances to determine their final results.

…

“What a magnificent sight…” On the top floor of a high-rise building, Qin Xian stood by the large floor-to-ceiling windows, looking at the scene around the Temple of Apocalypse, and sighed with emotion.

He was draped in a bathrobe, appearing very relaxed. Beside him, Su Keqing was preparing his clothes, looking very dutiful.

Su Keqing, who had initially resisted, had gradually become compliant and had now gotten used to it. She had completely accepted her role as Qin Xian’s woman.

However, Su Keqing had also noticed that ever since she started following Qin Xian, the people and things around her had undergone significant changes.

Jiang Song, the CEO of Jia Shi Entertainment, whom she had once regarded as a significant figure, was now treating her with utmost respect, not daring to show the slightest bit of negligence.

He even transferred 15% of Jashi Entertainment’s shares to her, making Su Keqing an instant billionaire and a major shareholder in Jia Shi Entertainment!

Initially, Su Keqing did not want to accept these things, fearing they might cause trouble for Qin Xian. However, Qin Xian had insisted she accept them. In Qin Xian’s eyes, 15% of Jashi Entertainment’s shares were insignificant and not worth mentioning.

It wasn’t just Jiang Song; even when Yu Xun, the son of the Speaker, came to visit Qin Xian these past few days, he treated her with great courtesy. It wasn’t the usual false politeness but genuine respect!

At this moment, Qiu Bo walked in and greeted Su Keqing with a slight smile, “Miss Su.”

Su Keqing immediately understood and said softly, “I’ll go prepare breakfast.” She knew that Qin Xian had important business to attend to.

However, Su Keqing never asked, nor did she want to ask. She knew that she was merely Qin Xian’s plaything, and the less she knew about some matters, the better…

“Is everything ready?”

“Yes, young master. Everything is ready, and the other families have also been notified.”

Upon hearing this, Qin Xian nodded, letting out a faint sigh, “It seems that many people will die today…”
