The male supporting character was actually myself.

"Boom! Crack!"

Thunder roared down directly onto the field!

"Meow~ How scary!" The fluffy ball of fur bristled with fear, curling up into a ball and hiding its little head in its host's neck. It dared not look at the scene that was about to unfold, fearing that the innocent martial artist would be blasted to pieces.

It's now!

The soul artifacts, which had been waiting for their chance, intertwined to form a net that protected the framed martial artist; then a silver light flashed by, one end shooting straight into the sky to guide the lightning; the other end wrapped around Mu Liuli's long hair, which was fluttering in the wind.

"boom!"

In an instant, a bolt of lightning struck straight at Mu Liuli, who was arrogantly grinning and waiting to see the joke and reap the rewards!

"what!"

Completely unprepared, Mu Liuli was caught off guard and only managed to let out a brief scream.

Then bolts of lightning rained down one after another. She felt a tingling and stinging sensation all over her body, and then her eyes rolled back as she lay on the ground, trembling and convulsing involuntarily, like a fish that had just been pulled ashore.

"Miss!"

Lan Ying was startled, but the fact that the other party was covered in electric arcs was quite frightening, so she didn't dare to go forward and touch it.

Upon hearing the vicious woman's outburst and seeing the strange phenomenon in the sky, the two martial artists who had just finished their duel were startled. They thought she had used some strange method to strike them with lightning in order to smear their reputation and pin the blame for their many misdeeds on them.

But the reversal came so quickly that everyone present was even more stunned.

The wicked woman's jumping and laughing attracted a bolt from the blue, which struck her down.

This is so exciting and thrilling!

After a few seconds of silence, and seeing the thunderclouds arrive and dissipate quickly, the sky soon brightened, and the world where only the wicked and evil woman Mu Liuli was injured was complete!

A joyful atmosphere immediately filled the crowd.

What could be more satisfying than witnessing a bad guy get struck by lightning?

"What are you lackeys standing there for? Your young lady has been struck by lightning again, hahaha!" Even the staff guarding the arena couldn't hide their smiles, pointing at Mu Liuli, whose face was covered in lightning and whose mouth was steaming, and laughed: "Hurry up and send her to the hospital, if something really happens if you're late, none of you can take responsibility."

After a moment of silence, the live stream exploded.

"Hahahaha! That feels so good, I feel really good now!"

"What a thunderbolt! What a powerful strike! Heaven has finally opened its eyes!"

"Tsk tsk tsk, this is the first time in my life I've ever seen someone be struck by lightning. That's fucking awesome!"

"She got slapped in the face, hahaha. Her attempt to show off backfired. Even God couldn't stand her arrogance anymore."

"Oh dear, who just said that those who do many evil deeds and have malicious intentions will be struck by lightning? Isn't the rolling thunder the correct answer?"

"Thanks to the host for showing us such a wonderful scene, let's send the rockets flying..."

…………

Messages scrolled through the live stream. Several streamers got excited seeing the large donations from viewers and, without caring that Mu Liuli's guards were right next to her, rushed over and filmed her face so that the audience could see how miserable her fate would be.

"Disgusting system, what's wrong with you?!" Mu Liuli, possessing a system and blessed with the protagonist's halo, naturally wasn't annihilated by the attack.

She lay on the ground, her body twitching occasionally. She opened her mouth, exhaled a puff of black smoke, and muttered, "You've ruined me!"

[The host's improper use of the item resulted in being struck by lightning, which is unrelated to the system.]

I never expected the stinking system to be so shameless, completely absolving itself of any responsibility and even starting to claim credit.

[The moment the host was struck by lightning, this system helped to mitigate the damage, preventing the host's death. Having failed in his attempt to do evil, the system's favorability towards the host has decreased to 80 points. The host is urged to continue doing evil, and even more evil, otherwise the system will be implicated and its favorability will drop to zero, at which point it will automatically unbind and all rewards will be reset.]

Note: This indicates that the host has been found to have insulted the system. This act will be punished with penetrating torture. Please be careful with your words and actions.

Damn it!

Mu Liuli cursed the filthy system's ancestors for eight generations in her heart, as the Hummer quantity was extremely high.

She's furious because she lost a prop and couldn't successfully show off and slap someone in the face to get the generous reward!

"Get out of my way! I don't need your hypocritical pretense." Seeing Lan Ying and the other guards come forward to help her up, Mu Liuli's anger erupted and she slapped them. "When the lightning struck, you all hid far away. Now that there's no danger, you come to fawn over me. What use are you bunch of useless trash to me!"

However, the guards, including Lan Ying, were still in shock from the lightning strike and hadn't recovered. Facing the young lady, whose face was covered in soot and looked quite comical, and who was usually foul-mouthed and ruthless, her insults received no response.

The stench system remained silent, which only fueled Mu Liuli's anger.

Chapter Thirteen: One Move!

"Host, look at the halo on this wild pseudo-master..." The fluffy dumpling missed a great show and was so regretful that it almost slapped its thigh until it turned blue. Then it looked up and saw the smile on its face return with surprise.

The originally dazzling aura around Mu Liuli had dimmed somewhat after being struck by lightning.

"Does being struck by lightning weaken the protagonist's aura?" It tilted its head, unable to understand the principle behind it.

Jiang Chen smiled and shook his head, guessing, "The lightning strike is just a symptom. I think it's probably because the wild pseudo-master used props to show off and embarrass others, but failed to frame them and suffered some backlash."

After all, it's the ultimate villain system. According to the original plot, there's no punishment for not doing bad things, and there are rewards for doing bad things, but what if you fail to do something bad?

The attempt to steal a chicken backfired spectacularly, and even the system probably couldn't stand such a shameful situation.

I just don't know if she was punished.

The fluffy little dumpling twitched its ears and pouted, "There's a high probability there won't be any punishment, otherwise she wouldn't be so relaxed right now."

It's a little disappointing that the wicked woman didn't get punished by the system, but it doesn't affect the little dumpling's good mood.

It scratched its ear with its hind paw, picked up the camera that had been set up earlier, and laughed heartily as it watched the entire process of Mu Liuli being struck by lightning. "I'm going to post it online right now, hehehe, Mu Liuli got struck by lightning again! I need to think of a good title to do justice to such a satisfying plot twist..."

Soon, the story of Mu Liuli, a member of the Mu family in Wuhai City, being humiliated went viral online.

With the little white cat secretly stirring things up, coupled with the visually striking celestial phenomenon, the plot twist and the sudden, dramatic reversal made Mu Liuli, who was struck by lightning for two consecutive days, continue to trend on social media.

A slap to her own delicate hand stung with pain, but she received no reward. Mu Liuli shook off Lan Ying and prepared to vent her anger on Jin Hongxuan, the young swordsman who was standing by watching the commotion.

It's all that damn pretty boy's fault!

If he hadn't jumped out at the wrong time to make his presence known, I wouldn't have been so unlucky as to have the ring occupied by someone else!

If it weren't for the fight to win the ring, I wouldn't have made a mistake with the prop!

Damn it, Jin Hongxuan, you just wait and see! The moment I step into the ring, I'll chop your Gil into pieces! What I don't have, nobody else can have!

"You, get up there!" Mu Liuli pointed fiercely at the handsome young man, intending to vent all her old and new grudges and dissatisfaction on him and earn a reward along the way.

Jiang Chen was slightly taken aback, raised an eyebrow, and smiled, "Miss Mu, I've never done the 'rolling' move before. Just now, when you were struck by lightning, I saw you doing it quite skillfully, so you must 'roll' often, right? Why don't you demonstrate first?"

The crowd burst into loud laughter.

Two martial artists who had just come down from the arena, each carrying a long sword, stood aside watching the spectacle.

Upon hearing this, one of them said loudly, "Handsome guy, you're right. Miss Mu must be very good at 'rolling' since she can just throw things around like that. Hurry up and let everyone see how well you roll!"

Mu Liuli had never suffered such humiliation.

In my previous life, I was the one who manipulated keyboard warriors to generate traffic for me; how could I have been so openly humiliated like this?

Even though the original owner of this body was domineering and tyrannical, no one ever dared to say no to her!

Okay, I'll remember you.

One by one, none of them will escape my grasp!

"Speaking of which, Miss Mu, are you sure your physical condition is still good enough to compete in the ring?" Jiang Chen didn't give her a chance to continue her swearing and instead mocked her with a sincere expression. "Being struck by lightning and having your face all smeared like this, you seem to be fine now, but no one can say for sure until you have a thorough examination."

If you insist on challenging me to a duel in the ring, should I win or lose?

I won, but you'll probably say you were struck by lightning and are feeling unwell. I'm stronger than you, so my victory is unfair.

To be honest, I really can't imagine how a swordsman at the Foundation Establishment stage could possibly lose to a novice at the second level of the Qi Refining stage.

Miss Mu insists on getting the treatment, which puts me in a difficult position.

Bah! You snobbish bastard, how dare you look down on me?

As expected, I'm doing this to teach you a lesson on behalf of Heaven. You're a disgusting keyboard warrior online, always looking down on everyone because you think you're so capable. You scoundrel!

To make matters worse, this disgusting person also has a pretty face. Who knows how many good girls he has ruined? I must get rid of this trash and menace for all the beautiful girls in the world!

"Heh, so many excuses, you just don't dare to fight me, do you?" Mu Liuli put on a disdainful face, and after spewing a few curses, she sneered, "If you don't have the guts, just say so. I've never even heard of this trashy Sword Spirit Sect. It must be one of those quack sects that you can get a gilded reputation by paying money."

You're definitely a spineless coward who built your foundation by eating pills. It's shameful that you can't even beat someone at the second level of the Qi Refining stage!

If you don't have the ability, don't jump out and try to get attention. You hypocritical scoundrel!

Upon hearing this, Jiang Chen's face immediately darkened. "You have insulted my sect without cause. Today, for the sake of my sect's honor, I will fight you honorably, even if you turn around and bite me. Sword Spirit Sect is a righteous sect; how can you humiliate us like this!"

Reputable and righteous sects?

How come I've never heard of this lousy, low-class name before?

Mu Liuli sneered upon hearing this. "Heh heh, who doesn't know that none of the so-called righteous sects are any good? On the contrary, the demonic sects that you've framed are all chivalrous and righteous good people."

I understand. Today, I'm determined to act on behalf of Heaven and tear off your hypocritical mask, so that the world can see what the so-called righteous sects really are like.

Having said that, no one can back down without a fight.

Mu Liuli washed her face in the basin of water that Lan Ying brought her, and then tidied her hair so that she didn't look so disheveled.

The staff responsible for guarding the arena repeatedly stated that they would absolve themselves of responsibility to prevent Mu Liuli from throwing mud at them after losing the match.

"Stop being so long-winded. It's just a ring match. I can easily beat this coward in two moves. Can you shut your stinking mouth?" After swallowing the pill and giving herself a buff, Mu Liuli couldn't wait any longer. She pushed the staff aside, jumped onto the ring with a nimble movement, and beckoned to Jiang Chen with a provocative look on her face. "Come on, come up here and let me beat you to a pulp!"

As the host stepped onto the arena, the fluffy little ball's two short paws were so busy that only a blur remained.

Soon, the online buzz about Mu Liuli's blatant insults to the low-key and ancient prestigious sect, Sword Spirit Sect, reached unprecedented heights, even overshadowing the previous news of her being struck by lightning.

"What the hell? Just who is the Mu family? They even dare to insult the Sword Spirit Sect?"

"We don't know if she's ignorant or brain-dead, but everyone knows that the Sword Spirit Sect has upheld its duty for hundreds of years, emerging from the mountains to uphold justice and peace during times of chaos. For such a great and low-key sect to be so casually insulted is utterly disgusting!"

"Sigh, isn't it all because he has a Golden Core Realm father protecting him? The Sword Spirit Sect is a dignified sect that doesn't compete with the world. They wouldn't take a few words seriously with a mere child. The world is truly degenerate and people's hearts are no longer what they used to be!"

"Jin Hongxuan, a disciple of the Sword Spirit Sect, has already reached the Foundation Establishment Realm, while Mu Liuli is only at the second level of Qi Refining. How can she win? By suffocating him with her foul mouth?"

"Just watch, Jin Hongxuan is really pitiful. He got himself into trouble for no reason, and even after winning, he still gets bitten back. Why didn't that lightning strike her dead just now?"

"They don't even know remorse after being struck by lightning, so they're completely beyond saving. Let them be humanely destroyed..."

………………

Negative comments are everywhere online, and even the usual whitewashing trolls have disappeared. It seems that Mu Liuli, who is universally hated, has brought everyone on the same side.
