Villain Cultivator

A few minutes earlier, Zhang He had been cultivating in seclusion in peace.

Zhang He's cultivation had already reached the 6th-stage, and he comprehended the Dao of Sorcery, which turned all basic elemental power into advanced elements! Moreover, his energy tank was limitless since he had been drawing power from Yuan Hua.

With the Infinite Elemental Qi cheat, which he got from Yuan Hua System, he was confident that he could defeat any nascent soul cultivator.

Suddenly, an attractive woman, who claimed to be the sole survivor of the Yan Clan on this continent, barged into his cave and asked for help.

As a virgin in his former life, Zhang He thought that this meeting was a heroine-encounter-flag. He agreed to help the woman and fought off against numerous giant cockroaches.

However, facing against the massive army of roaches was not something Zhang He could handle even if he had infinite element Qi. If they had the same strength, he might have crushed them all easily.

But these cockroaches had tough skin and could regenerate their lost limbs. He needed to kill these creatures one at a time. And when they fought in herds, Zhang He was pushed back.

Without a choice, Zhang He kept fighting in a losing battle to survive. He and the woman escaped Zhang He's cave and ran toward Yeet City, hoping to find shelter.

Unfortunately, the bugs had created a colony underground below this city. They ran into the headquarters of cockroaches.

"Dammit!"

Zhang He looked around. He carried the unknown woman and flew away from the city.

But as he fought his way through the horde of flying cockroaches, the corner of his eyes spotted two individuals, who were looking his way from a distance.

One of them emitted a sinister aura of darkness while the woman next to him had the same vibe as these cockroaches.

It wasn't difficult to deduce that one of them might be controlling these creatures.

'So, it was them! Just you wait. Once I farm enough creeps and level up enough, I'll come back to crush you!'

Zhang He ignored the two mysterious beings and broke through the encirclement.

Just as Zhang He had made it through the massive army of flying bugs, the people that he had seen earlier intercepted them.

The strange person in a hooded robe was covered in black mist. Zhang He couldn't even see the person's face – Only the glowing yellowish eyes could be seen in the dark.

As for the other one next to the mysterious man, she was a charming woman in skimpy clothes. The only things that covered her nipples and her crotch area were a few pieces of clothes, attached to a few strings.

Zhang He gulped. He had a boner, and it poked the butt of the woman in his arms.

The woman blushed and glanced at Zhang He's face.

The black mist man seemed to be offended by their interaction. He suddenly blinked and reappeared behind Zhang He.

The cold dark hand seized Zhang He's neck, and ominous energy entered him.

Zhang He's eyes rolled upward, and he fell unconscious.

…

Zhang He had a weird dream.

In the dream, he was surrounded by a thousand centipedes in a dark cave. On the ceiling, countless eggs of these creatures shook as the babies inside were trying to come out.

Zhang He couldn't move or utter a word, but he heard the sweet moaning voice of a woman nearby.

PA PA PA

"Ahn!"

"…"

Zhang He wanted to look around, but his head and his vision were too stiff. He could only look forward.

CRACK

The hatchlings on the ceiling came out from the cocoons. They fell to the ground and revealed their appearance.

Arm-sized centipedes wiggled on the ground in pain. But soon, more hatchlings rained upon Zhang He and the other centipedes.

Zhang He was covered by these strange creatures. They didn't do anything to him, but they already noticed his presence.

One of them crawled toward Zhang He. It opened its wide mouth while it coiled around his body.

Then, it bit the back of his neck!

…

"WAAAAAAHHHH!!"

Zhang He screamed as he woke up from the dream. Yet, he couldn't move his body or feel his arms or legs.

Zhang He found himself inside a ruined palace of Yeet City. The ceiling was already destroyed, so the bright full moon could be seen from here.

He looked around as he tried to move. Only then, he discovered that he was pinned down by a small array formation, which only covered him.

"WHAT?!"

He soon discovered that his four limbs were no longer attached to his body. They were gone!

As for his weapons, spatial rings, and other belongings, they were gone. He was left with only his underwear.

"!!!"

Nearby, the moonlight highlighted the ongoing show.

"Ha, Ahn! Ah!"

The sultry moaning voice of a woman was audible again. Zhang He turned to the source of the voice, where the moonlight had been shining upon.

Somehow, the woman that Zhang He had rescued was naked, riding on the strange hooded man. She looked intoxicated and ecstatic.

However, Zhang He could sense that her Qi was getting weaker. It was flowing toward the strange man. At this rate, she might run out of Qi soon.

Fortunately, before the woman ran out of Qi, the strange man tossed her aside. White juice leaked out from her private part, and she panted in exhaustion.

The sexy girl next to the man grabbed the Yan girl's hair. Then, she pulled out a sword and beheaded her!

"!!!"

Zhang He bit his lower lips. These people were too cruel!

They just ravished the woman and killed her, just like that!?

The sexy girl raised the woman's head high and opened her mouth, drinking the dripping blood from the severed head. After having her fill, she tossed the head toward the darkness.

SCREECH

Terrifying screams of various bugs echoed, and they fought each other to catch the flying head. One of them grabbed the head with its mandibles and disappeared into the shadow.

But the gory show continued. The sexy girl slowly chopped the headless body's limbs and threw to the darkness.

More bugs shouted in joy. They competed to get the piece of meat.

Soon, the man, who had ravished the Yan woman earlier, stood up and complained, "What a waste. I could have kept her as a toy."

The woman retorted, "You don't need her, Miaomiao. If you want someone to stick it in, put it inside me! You can partake of me whenever and wherever you want to. That commoner girl isn't worthy of your love and precious semen!"

"Hahaha! If you put it that way, then it's fine. Welp, she was too weak to be my companion anyway. She's also related to Yan Liang. Keeping her might make things complicated."

"True. Killing her is the right decision!"

"Hmm. Welp, now that I've warmed up, time for the main course. I need to ask him several questions and read his karma."

The hooded man strolled toward Zhang He. He squatted next to the latter, "Hey, what's up, Mr. Protagonist?"

"W-Who are you?" Zhang He glared at the mist man.

"Hmm. That's a difficult question. Well, I don't need to answer you anyway."

…

Miaomiao sneered at Zhang He, taking his time reading the latter's karma strings and his relationship with someone from the higher realm.

He could have killed Zhang He earlier, but he kept the latter alive to inspect his karma memory.

Miaomiao also noticed strange karma strings, which led to the space. Upon tracing and locating the source of the karma string, Miaomiao discovered that Zhang He was deeply connected to someone from the higher realm.

Moreover, this guy had devoured a soul before. When Miaomiao sent his negative karma string into Zhang He's neck, he discovered several thousands of karma centipedes inside him.

"Tell me, Zhang He. Who brought you to this world?"

Zhang He widened his eyes, "W-What?"

"Just answer my question, and I will return your limbs."

Zhang He grounded his teeth and decided to reveal the truth, "Goddess Yuan Hua. She brought me here."

Miaomiao narrowed his eyes, "Yuan Hua? Okay, then. Next question, what is your golden finger? A system? A grandpa in a ring? An almighty skill?"

Zhang He was astonished, surprised, and confused at the same time, "W-WHO ARE YOU?!"

"I'm your senior. I'm from the modern world just like you, but I'm here before you. Now, will you tell me honestly, or should I treat you like the local cultivators?"

"…"

In the end, Zhang He confessed. He told Miaomiao everything from the beginning, how he got his power, how his system worked, and what Yuan Hua had been telling him to do.

Miaomiao had a clear idea of what Yuan Hua was doing now. He was satisfied.

"What a terrible storyline. You were summoned here, and you were unknowingly used as a tool by that stupid goddess. Welp, before your story can reach the turning point of your life, I need to kill you."

"BUT I TOLD YOU EVERYTHING!" Zhang He felt betrayed.

"Hahaha! This is your final lesson for you, Mr. Protagonist. Never trust a villain or a fellow protagonist. Unfortunately, I've been on both sides."

As Zhang He was no longer useful, Miaomiao seized Zhang He's existence karma string.

But as he was about to cut it, he stopped.

"Wait a minute. The easy way or the hard way? Hmm… decision, decision."

He could have ended Zhang He's life right here, but he forgot that Zhang He might have a Heavenly Fate Fragment. He grabbed Zhang He's face and began absorbing the latter's luck.

A thousand strings of negative karma threads entered Zhang He's body again. This time, Miaomiao robbed him of his luck, Heavenly Fate Fragment, Karma Centipedes…

And most importantly, Zhang He's System!

"It would have been a shame if I were to kill you without robbing your cheat power first. Hahahahaha!!"

"!!!"

Zhang He widened his eyes in shock and disbelief.

"NO! THIS SHOULDN'T BE IT! I'M SUPPOSED TO BE THE WINNER IN THIS LIFE! I'M THE CHOSEN ONE! WHERE IS MY CAREFREE SLOW LIFE HAREM-FILLED JOURNEY?! I HAVEN'T EVEN ENCOUNTERED A HEROINE YET!!"

"Another bastard that talks in caps…" Miaomiao rolled his eyes and pinched his other free fingers. Then, he gestured as if he was pulling something from Zhang He.

SWUA

The tongue of the protagonist was pulled out by Miaomiao's telekinesis force.

"!!!"

Zhang He's noise got louder, but he couldn't speak a proper human language.

Miaomiao hummed as he took his time, draining Zhang He's Qi and power to the last drop. If things went according to his plans, Zhang He would die here.

Unfortunately, Zhang He's plot armor was still strong even though Miaomiao plucked out the Heavenly Fate Fragment from him.

'Stay your hands, Mao Miaomiao! You're harming your allies!'

A young girl's voice echoed in Miaomiao's mind. Although this was Miaomiao's first time hearing it, he knew who it was.

"Yo, long time no see, Goddess Yuan Hua. What are you doing these days? Oh, what do you mean [Allies]? I don't remember having a friend like you."

'Bastard! My boss said that you made a deal with his backer, and we're now allies! Stop what you're doing and leave my incarnate alone!'

"…"

Miaomiao furrowed his brows. He pursed his lips for a moment before he grinned.

"Whoops. My hands slip!"

Without hesitation, he put pressure on his fingers that had been grabbing Zhang He's head. Then, he crushed it!

CRACK

Zhang He's skull was crushed. His eyes were ejected from his sockets, and the mushy soft brain came out from the destroyed skull.

"Whoops. My hands slip again!"

Even though he said that, he stood up and stomped on Zhang He's brain, not allowing him to be resurrected. Moreover, for the safety measure, Miaomiao grabbed Zhang He's existence karma string and cut it.

'MAO MIAOMIAO!!'

Yuan Hua's voice dizzied Miaomiao since she screamed directly to his mind. His eyes and ears bled because of her voice pressure, but no blood was visible under the black mist disguise.

As Miaomiao was annoyed, he searched for Yuan Hua's karma strings, and he found several of them around himself.

"Dion."

Ding

[Yes, Miaomiao?]

"Make a backup memory of my encounters and interactions with Yuan Hua and her people, including the recent events that I've been doing today. Also, in 10 minutes, I want you to inject the memory back to me. Can you do it?"

[That's a simple task. Storing your memory… Please wait.]

[Backup completed!]

Miaomiao snickered. He turned around and cut every karma string that had been connecting him and Yuan Hua.

After everything was cut, Miaomiao paused and spat several mouthfuls of blood. A portion of his memory faded as he slowly forgot who Yuan Hua was. He also heard a faint scream of the goddess, but he had already forgotten her name.

Miaomiao stood there for several minutes and tilted his head to the side, "What was I doing again?"

He turned to Liu Guang, "What was I doing?"

Liu Guang had an awkward smile on her face, "That's my question. Who did you talk to earlier?"

"…"

Miaomiao took a deep breath and shrugged, "Welp, let's move on to the next place. We're done here even though I don't know what I just did."

As Zhang He's corpse disappeared along with the severed karma string, Miaomiao had no idea whom he had killed.

Fortunately, a few minutes later, Dion injected the memory back to Miaomiao.

As soon as the memory came back, Miaomiao cackled. He looked around and found several strings of karma, which were coming out of his body and stretching toward the space.

Miaomiao grabbed them and pulled them back to himself before they could find Yuan Hua and restore her memory.

"That's how you cheat karma law. Kakakakaka!"
