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

"Oh, tell me about it."

Qin Huaiyu smiled slightly; to be honest, he was also very curious about the identity of this young nobleman.

"I am Yan Chong, the eldest son of the Yan family. If you dare to touch me, my Yan family will never let you off!" the young master shouted.

The Yan family, what a small world!

Qin Huaiyu's eyes turned cold as he said:

"Don't worry, Young Master Yan, I'm a law-abiding citizen. How could I possibly harm you?"

We can't let this guy off so easily. With his arrogant nature, how could he possibly tolerate such humiliation? He'll definitely seek revenge when he returns to the Yan family.

With my current strength, I cannot openly challenge the Yan family; I must remain cautious.

"snort!"

Yan Chong snorted coldly.

"What, you're scared now? Then let me go, and who knows, I might be in a good mood and spare you!"

Although he was under control, his arrogance remained high.

"Alright, then let's do as Young Master Yan says."

As Qin Huaiyu spoke, he took out a brocade ribbon from inside his clothes with his free hand, and then flicked it with his finger, and the Blood Spirit Insect flew out.

He grabbed it casually and shoved it into Yan Chongyin's open mouth as he breathed.

Yan Chong had no chance to react. With a swift movement of his throat, he swallowed it. By the time he realized it, it was too late, and his expression suddenly changed drastically.

"What did you give me to eat?"

Qin Huaiyu sneered:

"Here's a little something good. If you obey, you'll be fine. But if you don't, I can't guarantee your life."

"You dare threaten me!" Yan Chong's voice lowered a few decibels.

Qin Huaiyu released his grip, and then with a thought, the Blood Spirit Insect King in the Xuan Pool poked out its chubby head and shook it twice.

"what!"

The next moment, Yan Chong let out a scream. He felt a heart-wrenching pain in his abdomen, as if something was gnawing at him.

"Stop! Stop! Stop!" he shouted immediately.

Seeing that the experiment was effective, Qin Huaiyu withdrew his control. This Blood Spirit Worm was truly extraordinary; it could not only invade consciousness but also bite.

This is much more convenient.

"Young Master Yan, do you still think this is just a threat? If you don't believe me, you can try it once more," he sneered.

Upon hearing this, Yan Chong's arrogance vanished instantly, replaced by utter terror.

"No, no, I'll be good, I promise I'll be good."

He was truly terrified. As a pampered young master from a wealthy family, he had never suffered such torment since childhood, not to mention the risk to his life in addition to the pain.

The fear of death was so intense that there was no will to resist.

...As expected, rich kids are all cowards!

Qin Huaiyu breathed a slight sigh of relief. He was also gambling, betting that Yan Chong wouldn't dare to risk his life.

Although the Blood Spirit Worm has a great effect, it is ultimately just an ordinary Gu worm. Yan Chong's own strength is too weak to sense what it is.

But if he told the experts in the Yan family, they could easily kill him.

But judging from his terrified and near-collapse-like appearance, he clearly didn't have the guts...

Outwardly fierce but inwardly weak, she's actually an easy pawn to control!

Qin Huaiyu's mood improved. He was just struggling to deal with the Yan family, and now they'd delivered themselves to his doorstep. However...

"Then tell us, Young Master Yan, why are you following us?"

Upon hearing this, Yan Chong's expression changed. He was afraid, but even more surprised.

"How...how did you know?"

Yun Suyan, standing to the side, was completely numb. This younger brother was truly unfathomable. Was she just too stupid?

Qin Huaiyu shook his head, then looked at the dumbfounded old man at the fortune-telling stall next to him.

"He said my forehead was dark and that I was going to have a bloody accident today. If his fortune-telling was really accurate, would he still be here?"

The old man was greatly alarmed upon hearing this, but he quickly recovered and hurriedly said:

Explore the endless possibilities of fantasy novels, all in the category navigation.

"Young man, it's my fault. I shouldn't have lied to you. I discovered that Young Master Yan was following you, so I said those things for money. I'm just trying to support my family. Please be lenient and don't hold this old man against me."

Yun Suyan finally understood what was going on. This old man was a swindler. She had been so foolish as to be about to hand over her money. How hateful!

Hmph, the old man is indeed a charlatan; his reaction is quick.

Qin Huaiyu ignored him and turned back to say:

"Well, can Young Master Yan speak now?"

You old bastard, you just wait!

Yan Chong glared at the old man, then looked at Qin Huaiyu with great fear. This man was terrifying; not only was he incredibly strong, but he was also exceptionally intelligent.

I thought I was absolutely sure of everything, but in other people's eyes, I'm probably nothing at all.

At this point, he dared not hide anything and could only honestly say:

"It was Wang Hu, the city guard captain. He told me a beautiful woman had come to the city, so I..."

Yan Chong dared not say anything more, for fear that his obscene words would displease the other party and cause him further pain.

"Wang Hu, Captain!"

Yun Suyan immediately said:

"It's that fat armored soldier at the city gate."

Qin Huaiyu frowned slightly. It was him! Hadn't he had enough of being beaten?

That shouldn't be the case. I already used Li Chengye as a shield. Even if he investigated, he couldn't possibly find out that I was an imposter in such a short time. Besides, the real Li Chengye is right beside me.
