Fantasy: Ten Dragons Compete for the Throne, I, the Villain, Choose to Play it Off

Chapter 3: The protagonist of destiny, Xiao Yun, has his identity exposed!
What just happened was beyond Qin Linglong's imagination.

Today, Li Qiye seemed like a completely different person, so indifferent and cold towards her, a stark contrast to his usual demeanor.

That makes it less annoying.

"No, this guy is definitely even more annoying now!"

"There's no reason to take back a gift that's already been given."

"This is infuriating!"

She didn't dislike Li Qiye, but Qin Linglong always regarded her grandfather as her role model and cultivated diligently.

In her heart, her future partner would definitely be a passionate and charismatic man who would dominate the battlefield.

He is definitely not like Li Qiye, who idles away his time and spends his days indulging in pleasure.

"System, am I considered to have completed the mission?"

Qin Linglong called out in her heart.

Once a martial artist reaches the Enlightenment Realm, they need to open one more aperture. As long as they can open one aperture, they can continue to cultivate and break through.

The more insights you gain, the better your talent.

The more acupoints one unlocks, the better it is for cultivation, the more advantageous it is in combat, and the more powerful the explosive force becomes.

A cultivator who can open all nine orifices is undoubtedly a top-tier genius.

As far as Qin Linglong knew, only the top six geniuses on the list of prodigies had opened the nine orifices.

Qin Linglong has opened seven orifices; this is already her limit.

The problem is that she broke through the Enlightenment Realm and reached the Divine Treasury Realm more than a year ago.

"Could the system possibly be reversed and the nine orifices reopened?"

Qin Linglong was filled with confusion.

Just then, a mechanical voice rang in my mind.

[Congratulations, host, on completing the mission and receiving the reward of having all nine orifices opened!]

She then felt a warm current flow into her whole body, and two of her previously unopened acupoints suddenly opened.

"Sixth level of the Divine Realm!"

Qin Linglong was shocked to discover that all nine of her orifices were open, and she had also broken through to the next level.

"This one……"

Qin Linglong was stunned.

She had tried to open these two acupoints for more than half a year, but she still couldn't.

But in that moment of distraction, those two acupoints were actually activated.

Realizing what was happening, Qin Linglong couldn't contain her joy.

To her surprise, the system hadn't lied to her; it was all real.

Given its terrifying power, she accepted whatever was hidden behind the system.

Moreover, Qin Linglong didn't think she was of much value to be schemed against like this.

If the other party really wanted to harm her, why go through all this trouble?
[Ding, host, new mission: Nine days from now, on the Ghost Festival, the tenth prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, Li Qiye, will be assassinated by Xiao Yun. The host must do everything possible to ensure Li Qiye's survival to complete the mission.]

[Reward for completing the mission: Innate Dao Body Physique!]

[Mission incomplete: No reward!]

[Mission Description: Assassin Xiao Yun, disciple of Qinglian Academy, remnant of the Demon Sect!]

Upon seeing this, Qin Linglong couldn't help but frown.

Xiao Yun?

If he remembered correctly, this person displayed extremely high martial arts talent after entering Qinglian Academy, and appeared gentle and refined...

"It's really strange, why do I have such a deep impression of Xiao Yun?"

Qin Linglong thought about it for a moment and then realized something was wrong.

For example, Xiao Yun had appeared in her field of vision many times.

Once, when Qinglian Academy organized its disciples to go on a training expedition, they encountered a beast tide, and Xiao Yun killed more than ten ferocious beasts in front of her.

"This person is incredibly cunning!"

Qin Linglong's heart sank slightly.

"How could someone raised by those old devils of the Demon Sect be truly honest and simple?"

"You must have an extremely dark heart, right?"

She certainly couldn't make a conclusion based solely on these unproven speculations.

But as the granddaughter of General Guozhu, Qin Linglong was extremely familiar with the Demon Sect. This was because the incident had occurred just a few years prior, and even her grandfather had been injured in that battle.

She had only overheard her grandfather mention that there was an old demon in the Demon Sect who was skilled in beast taming.

That dampness must have been no accident.

"Is Xiao Yun here for revenge?"

"No, we must tell Grandpa about this!"

Whether for Li Qiye's safety or to eradicate the remnants of the Demon Sect, it is extremely important.

On the contrary, the system's rewards are not that important.

The Seven Nights Prince's Mansion.

Li Qiye lay leisurely on the chair, admiring the graceful figure of the exotic dancer.

Just then, the system's voice rang in his mind.

[Ding! Congratulations, host, for successfully slacking off! You have received the reward of having all nine orifices opened!]

[Due to the detection that the host is well-versed in the art of shirking responsibility, an additional reward has been granted—the Mind's Eye Aperture!]

Soon, Li Qiye's mind became clear, and it was as if some kind of shackle had been broken at the center of his brow.

With just a little perception, Li Qiye knew what the Mind's Eye and Divine Aperture were.

Generally speaking, a martial artist can only open a maximum of nine orifices.

The Mind-Eye Acupoint is an extremely hidden acupoint that connects to your primordial spirit.

In addition to unleashing divine soul attacks, it can also strengthen one's own divine soul and greatly enhance perception.

"Divine Treasure Realm!"

Li Qiye has been in the Awakening Realm for three years, and now he has finally broken through.

Seeing the dancers trembling with fear at his sudden surge of power, Li Qiye restrained his aura and gestured for them to continue.

Li Qiye then picked up his teacup, took a small sip, and couldn't help but sigh, "This is life!"

"Your Highness!"

A guard came up and whispered something in Li Qiye's ear.

Upon hearing this, Li Qiye frowned.

The report states that Xiao Yun, the protagonist of destiny who was so well hidden, has actually been exposed.

According to the original plot, Xiao Yun, the protagonist of Destiny, did not reveal himself after assassinating the Tenth Prince.

How did it get exposed now?
Speaking of which, Xiao Yun possesses a secret technique for concealing his aura and altering his appearance, which would never be discovered by anyone.

After all, he came from the Demon Sect and was trained by those old demons.

If it weren't for General Guozhu personally leading the troops that year, they probably wouldn't have been able to destroy the Demon Sect.

After all, each of the ten great demons possessed unique skills and was incredibly powerful!
Li Qiye frowned as he recalled Qin Linglong's actions yesterday, which were completely different from those in the original story.

"This is wrong!"

"This seems to be deviating from the original plot. What exactly is going on?"

Li Qiye then shook his head helplessly.

"What does this have to do with me?"

"I've already given up, so I'll just ignore all this!"

"But Xiao Yun is already in a precarious situation himself, so he wouldn't come looking for an assassin to kill me, would he?"

But there's nothing to fear now that he's here. Li Qiye now possesses the Heavenly Soul Seal, which can protect his divine soul.

Even if Xiao Yun had the means to attack with his soul, he couldn't do anything to him.

"Let things get chaotic, the more chaotic the better!"

"In this situation, surely no one is paying attention to a prince who just stays at home doing nothing all day?"

"I'll just be a spoiled prince who has no interest in power and enjoys himself at home all day."

Li Qiye shook his head, lay back in the chair, basking in the sun and watching the dancers perform, feeling extremely content.

General Guozhu's Mansion.

"What did you say?!"

"Impossible, how is this possible!"

"He actually got away?"

Qin Linglong was shocked when she received the news.
