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

"It's me!"

Seeing that the time was ripe, Qin Huaiyu swaggered over to the stone table with Chu Yanxi.

"Bastard, how dare you use me!" the greedy ghost gritted his teeth.

Qin Huaiyu smiled coldly and said:

"You're just pawns to each other; the one with the better skills wins. If you don't even understand this basic principle, I think you've wasted your life."

Upon hearing this, the greedy ghost spat out another mouthful of blood.

He was not a dull person, so he naturally understood the meaning.

"You planned this from the very beginning, by trying to seduce me?"

"That's right!"

Qin Huaiyu nodded and continued:

"Your conflict with Scarface is obvious to everyone, so of course I'll start with you. Hatred can always blind people, and that's certainly true. You took the bait very quickly."

"But what I didn't expect was that you also had the intention to kill. I originally thought it would take you some time to prepare the Xuan Du Grass, but I didn't expect you to have it ready already. This is truly a case of reaping what you sow."

What a deep scheme! This kid is so young, yet he's completely fooled me. I even thought he was a fool.

Little did I know, I was the biggest fool of all, being sold out and still secretly happy!

The greedy ghost felt humiliated, and the fire in his heart, coupled with the excruciating pain, made his already wretched face even more distorted.

"You despicable person, you deserve to die, you deserve to die!"

Ha, he does have some guts, but unfortunately he's using them in the wrong place.

Qin Huaiyu's eyes turned cold, and he said:

"And you're no better than me. Don't think I don't know what you're up to. You followed me all this way, watching me poison people, all you wanted was to hand me over after Scarface died. Now, your wish has come true!"

"you……"

Enraged, the greedy ghost felt the pain in his abdomen intensify, and he glared at the ghost as if he wanted to kill someone.

"Don't be so smug... You killed someone from Black Cloud Stronghold, and Second Master won't let you get away with it!"

"Hmph, you idiot."

Qin Huaiyu snorted coldly and said:

"I've already wiped out your entire village, do you really think I'd let Xue Wenyuan go?"

How could Xue Wenyuan know the Second Master's real name?

The greedy ghost was shocked: "Who exactly are you?"

Qin Huaiyu grinned, approached the greedy ghost, and said coldly:

"Me? You know, of course I'm the kid Scarface was talking about."

"puff"

Upon hearing this, the greedy ghost became so enraged that he coughed up a mouthful of blood.

The only difference this time was that it also contained some black putrid liquid and lumps.

"It was you!"

Scarface was right; you can't get away with anything by running into him.

It's true, they even lost their lives.

"Why have you given up? Why aren't you going to look for Xue Wenyuan anymore? Maybe there's still hope?" Qin Huaiyu mocked.

"Ha, you win. Even Scarface might not be able to be saved, let alone me. Besides, with you around, they can live!" the greedy ghost said, seemingly mocking himself.

Qin Huaiyu smiled. This time, there was no magazine involvement; it was very sincere.

"You seem to see things clearly."

The greedy ghost stopped struggling and slumped back onto the stone bench.

"Otherwise, it was only when I got close to you that I suddenly realized that I have been morally deficient all my life."

You know, when you first suggested killing Scarface, it wasn't all calculation. I actually hesitated for a second. Ridiculous, isn't it?

Forehead?

Qin Huaiyu looked at the dying man and saw that he didn't seem to be lying, and asked doubtfully:

Is this a change?

The greedy ghost smiled bitterly, "I don't know, but it doesn't matter anymore."

He raised his head as if reminiscing, and murmured:

"Second Master, I owe you nothing in this life. Since you saved my life, I have done too many wrong things to repay your kindness. I hope we will never meet again in the next life."

After saying this, the greedy ghost slowly closed its eyes and died.

"Why"

Chu Yanxi sighed and said:

"How could it have turned out like this? He doesn't seem like the type to repent."

"You can't judge a book by its cover; perhaps his obsession got him into trouble."

Qin Huaiyu felt somewhat regretful, but even more so, he was puzzled.

What does "get closer" mean?

Am I his savior?

…Pah, pah.

I'm a straight man, not gay at all!

However, how could reality be so absurd? Xue Wenyuan actually saved the greedy ghost, and the greedy ghost repaid the favor by sending a scarred face to the sky.

Isn't this a super heart-wrenching short drama?!

According to the plot, now that the greedy ghost is dead, shouldn't Xue Wenyuan regret it?

If he truly does this, then he still has a conscience; otherwise, such a greedy person is truly worthless!

"Let's go, it's time for us to meet this Second Master."

After saying that, the two turned their heads, but what they saw before them was quite shocking.

All that could be seen on the ground ahead were corpses lying haphazardly.

Some stared wide-eyed, some curled up in a ball, some were unrecognizable, and some even seemed to have cut open their abdomens due to unbearable pain...

Yufei and the two cooks died at the entrance of the kitchen.

The bluestone floor had lost its original color; it was now stained a glaring red by blood, mixed with bits of decaying flesh.

The whole scene was extremely bloody and terrifying, making viewers' scalps tingle.

"This... is quite shocking!"

Qin Huaiyu forced a smile.

Although I had prepared myself mentally, I still felt physically uncomfortable when I actually faced it, after all, it was a scene of death for nearly a hundred people.

Chu Yanxi frowned slightly. "It's alright, not to the point of being unbearable."

Forehead?

Is this girl really that oblivious? Is this all she's got?

Qin Huaiyu was suspicious and probed:

"You seem to have a lot of experience?"

"Of course, don't forget I'm the granddaughter of the King of Chu." Chu Yanxi forced a smile, but it looked somewhat forced to anyone.

There are stories, but I don't tell them.

Qin Huaiyu went along with it and didn't ask any more questions.
