“No, that look in her eyes... it’s the look of someone intent on killing!” At this moment, just from a brief exchange of glances, Ye Xuan was certain.
The way the heroine looked at him was not out of curiosity, but of deep hatred. She wanted to kill him. This wasn’t the beginning of the novel, but the end; the heroine had rebirthed to change everything in her second loop. He was in danger!
Ye Xuan panicked. He thought even if he transmigrated into the role of a villain, there was no need to worry. After all, he could simply choose not to like the heroine and not become that villain. Isn’t the world of cultivators filled with beautiful women? Why bother becoming the villain for just one heroine?
But he never expected to be thrust into the world after the heroine’s rebirth. In this world, the heroine already knew the entire plot. Even if he did nothing, in her eyes, he was the sworn enemy who killed her parents, brothers, and lover. She wouldn’t give him a chance to grow; she would surely try to kill him.
“Now I wish I had agreed to Daoist Qin Zhenren’s suggestion to become an official!”
According to the novel’s setting, Yu Ling’er, though only fourteen, was already at the Object Manipulation realm. In this world’s cultivation system, that level meant she had made significant progress.
The cultivation system of this world, as described in the novel and using Taihua Immortal Gate as an example, consists of Qi Gathering, Enlightenment, Foundation Establishment, and Mastery of Objects. A person at the Mastery of Objects realm appears almost immortal to mortals.
She could kill him as easily as squashing an ant. If the circumstances allowed, she would probably kill him right then and there. What should he do now?
‘Damn it... I haven’t done anything, and yet I’m being treated as the villain. Is there no justice? No law? Wait, that’s not right. If I haven’t done anything, why would Yu Ling’er be reborn, and why would she hate me?’
‘This doesn’t make sense with the law of cause and effect. There’s no reason for this. Whether it’s cause or effect that comes first, I’ve already decided not to provoke Yu Ling’er, so I definitely won’t become the big villain.’
‘Hence, there shouldn’t be this chain of cause and effect, and she shouldn’t have been reborn. She shouldn’t hate me, but her murderous gaze can’t be hidden. It means she indeed knows everything about the future.’
‘Could it be that the so-called rebirth in the novel is actually just a foreknowledge of a future possibility?
The events before the rebirth in the novel are just future scenarios foreseen by the heroine after her rebirth. There’s no actual rebirth. That explains why, even though I’m not the future villain, the heroine still hates me as if I am. She’s a fake reborn person who thinks she has been reborn. ‘
‘Ah, this... I’m even more wronged. The heroine is affected by her foreseen future, but she really wants to kill me, and she hasn’t actually experienced the process where I harm her.’
‘What should I do? Can I explain to her not to kill me?’
If explaining worked, there wouldn’t be so many misunderstandings in this world. Her expression is practically saying, ‘You won’t survive until tomorrow.’
‘In other transmigrations, the heroines love them even if they are reborn. Why is it so tragic for me? The heroine thinks she’s reborn and wants to harm me. Where’s my system?’
“Yu Ling’er, Yu Hao, Yu Yu.” Daoist Qing Yan didn’t know the panic in Ye Xuan’s heart and didn’t see his daughter staring at Ye Xuan with a murderous look.
He said to the three, “This is your new junior brother, his Daoist name is Yu Xuan. I have other important matters to attend to, so you three explain the sect rules to Yu Xuan and also fetch a fitting Daoist robe for him.”
“Yes.” Hearing this, the three bowed to Daoist Qing Yan. After he left, the eldest brother Yu Hao turned to Ye Xuan and said:
“Junior brother, I am your eldest senior brother, Daoist name Yu Hao.” He scrutinized Ye Xuan, wondering why their master didn’t seem to value this junior brother. Otherwise, he wouldn’t have just left him here.
“Yu Xuan, junior brother, I am your second senior brother,” said Yu Yu with a smile. “Junior brother, how come you have short hair? Are you from the Southern Borders?”
Yu Ling’er, not waiting for Ye Xuan to respond, said with a smile: “Hello, junior brother, I am your senior sister, Yu Ling’er. I’ll take good care of you.”
Her smile contained a hint of coldness towards the end. She was determined not to let Yu Xuan off the hook. She had planned the cruelest revenge for her great enemy, Yu Xuan.
But Ye Xuan was not the original Yu Xuan! Seeing the malicious glint in Yu Ling’er’s smile, Ye Xuan was alarmed. He wasn’t the villain she thought he was.
Yu Ling’er remembered how the original Ye Xuan used to gaze at her obsessively, but Ye Xuan only politely greeted her this time, puzzling her. She didn’t realize it wasn’t her charm that had diminished, but rather Ye Xuan was preoccupied with thinking how to survive.
Suddenly, Ye Xuan had an idea, “Yu Xuan greets the eldest brother, second brother, and senior sister. By the way, my Daoist name is Ye Xuan.”
He hoped to remind Yu Ling’er that he was not the villain she thought. However, her eyes still showed undiminished intent to kill.
‘Could it be that the villain also shares my Daoist name?
So, I have completely replaced the existence of that villain. This time, I’m really doomed. Who would have thought that after transmigrating, I would replace the villain, and one that is doomed to die? System, when will you come? If you don’t show up soon, I’m finished!’
