Chosen One, how did I end up as the villain?

The soldier accepted the silver without hesitation.

"The young lady is quite sensible, but recently there have been bandits committing crimes outside the city. The city defenses must be strictly checked, and at the very least, a body search is necessary."

After saying that, he grinned lewdly and reached out to touch Yun Suyan.

"Sir, please stop."

Upon seeing this, Yun Suyan quickly took a step back.

"Hehe, young lady, let's keep business as it is, otherwise how can we get into the city?"

The armored soldier laughed even more unrestrainedly and made a move to pounce on him.

"If you dare take another step forward, don't blame me for being impolite."

Just as they were about to succeed, a loud shout suddenly rang out from inside the carriage.

The fat soldier's face stiffened, then he glared angrily at a handsome man who stepped out of the car.

"Who are you?"

He was wary and noticed that the young man in front of him was dressed in an unusual manner. Fearing that the man might have some kind of background, he restrained his temper somewhat.

What a cunning fat pig! He even knows how to test people.

Qin Huaiyu didn't tolerate it and immediately said:

"Nameless, unaffiliated, orphaned, just a villager from the mountains—what's the problem?"

Upon hearing this, the soldier no longer held back. How dare a country bumpkin be so arrogant? His fat face jiggled as he said:

"Boy, if that's the case, you still dare to meddle in official matters? I think you're courting death."

Having said that, he drew the sword from his waist and was about to slash down.

The sharp blade emitted a faint, cold glint, and hurtled towards them like a flash of silver light.

Those who had stopped to watch closed their eyes, unable to bear to look any longer.

"Oh no, oh no, why was this young man so impulsive!"

The blade rapidly magnified in his eyes, and the cold wind already ruffled the hair on his forehead. Qin Huaiyu's gaze suddenly turned cold, and he reached out and grabbed the armored soldier's wrist, twisting it forcefully.

"Click"

Accompanied by a crisp sound.

"Ah, ah..."

The armored soldier's face immediately contorted in agony, and he let out a piercing scream. The hand that held the knife fell limply to his side, clearly severed.

The people around were startled by the sound and opened their eyes. When they saw the condition of the armored soldier, their expressions changed drastically.

"What happened?"

"It seems this young man is no ordinary person. This pig has really bitten off more than he can chew. It's satisfying! He should have been taught a lesson long ago for using his official position to exploit the people!"

"That's true, but moving guards at the city gate is tantamount to suicide!"

"Oh, what a pity, still so young."

Ignoring the murmurs, Qin Huaiyu kicked the pig-headed warrior's leg again.

This time he increased his strength even more.

Another ear-piercing sound rang out.

The armored soldier collapsed to the ground, howling in agony.

"Ah, ah, someone help! Someone help me!"

As the sound faded, a squad of guards rushed over from inside the city gate.

"Make way, make way!"

The crowd retreated in terror.

"Captain!"

Two perceptive guards quickly stepped forward to help the person up, shouting:

"Who did it?"

"That's him... kid, take him down right now!" the captain shouted menacingly, pointing at Qin Huaiyu.

Upon hearing this, the remaining guards instantly drew their swords and surrounded them with hostile expressions.

Ha, so he's an official. No wonder he's so unscrupulous. But with a talisman in the car, why would I be afraid of you bunch of thugs?

Without any hesitation, Qin Huaiyu suddenly unleashed his aura, spewing out dark golden light.

"Cultivator!"

The surrounding guards were instantly terrified, but before they could react, a powerful energy spread out, immediately knocking them to the ground.

The captain was even more shocked. How could this be? How could a country boy be a cultivator? He couldn't believe it, but the scene before him was undeniably real.

"Captain, there are still city defense troops upstairs. Should we call them over?" Qin Huaiyu approached.

"What...what do you want to do? I'm the captain of the city gate!"

The fat captain's forehead was covered in sweat from the pain, but his heart was filled with a chill. Looking into those murderous eyes, he even began to stammer.

Qin Huaiyu shook his head and sneered:

"Don't worry, I'm a law-abiding citizen. I won't do anything to you in broad daylight. But if you don't behave yourself..."

I wouldn't mind teaching them a lesson again.

After saying that, without waiting for the fat armored soldier to reply, he pulled Yun Suyan into the carriage.

"Let's go into town!"

Is Young Master Qin really that fierce...?

The waiter paused for a moment, then glanced pitifully at the trembling guards before slowly driving the carriage into the city.

As he passed the captain, Qin Huaiyu smiled and peeked out.

"My name is Li Chengye. If you want revenge, know where to find me. I will definitely accompany you to the end."

"............"

Inside the car, Li Chengye was dumbfounded. If it weren't for you playing the hero and saving the damsel in distress, what does it have to do with me?

"........." Old Taoist priest, this kid is no good, poor rascal.

"........." Yun Suyan, my little brother is so naughty, I like him so much.

The fat captain stood there bewildered. Li Chengye, the second young master of the Li family, was someone he had never met, but he had heard of the reputation of a scion of a prominent family.

As a city gate officer, he could act arrogantly and domineeringly at the city gate, but in front of the Li family, his insignificant official position was nothing, and they could crush him in a matter of minutes.

Is there any connection between the common folk and the second son of the Li family?

If I'd known this would happen, why did I bother with that woman? Aren't the girls at Cuiyun Tower better? Economical, affordable, experienced, and capable of satisfying any need...

Finished!

It's all over!

He seemed to say he wouldn't do anything to me in broad daylight, so does that mean he'd do it at night?
