Life of a Villain

"Fang Yan,"

Fang Yan shuddered for a moment as a heavy and stern voice reached his ears before his gaze shifted to the middle-aged man with a frown on his face.

He began walking towards that man with a smile on his face. He bowed slightly and said as he stood before the man.

"Thank you for giving me this opportunity. I would do everything to repay your kindness."

The middle-aged man's eyes gleamed, his gaze fixed on Fang Yan. "Okay. How did you find the arrangement?"

"I didn't expect you to have such a magnificent arrangement for cultivation. What was that formation in the cultivation room?" Fang Yan inquired, his eyes fixed on the middle-aged man.

Even though he knew little about the Middle and Upper worlds. His view was limited since he spent little time with the saint after inheriting the Legacy.

"That is the gathering formation. This world is vast, and you know very little about it. Don't worry, you'll learn a lot more in the future. But keep in mind that I can only provide you with the opportunity. But if you waste this opportunity, my resources will be wasted, and it will not be good for you."

Fang Yan shuddered slightly but nodded. "I will not disappoint you."

The man nodded. "You'd soon be breaking through to the core formation realm. But you must put in a lot of effort. That Young Master An di or whatever is already on the verge of entering the Soul Formation Realm. You must act quickly if you want revenge." When he mentioned Andy, the man's eyes shone slightly.

Complexity appeared in Fang Yan's eyes as he heard about Andy. He could tell the man in front of him was more enthusiastic when he was talking about Andy.

Seeing Fang Yan's reaction, the man understood his thoughts, "You may think that I favor that Young man, right?"

Fang Yan lowered his gaze for a moment before nodding. "Yes, I despise him."

"You must understand that the powerful are respected everywhere in this world. No one will respect you if you are weak. Even though you both have limitless potential. The person who maximizes his or her potential will rule the world."

The man sighed. "To be honest, I admire him. Even though he is not that powerful, he is decisive. I came to know that he was responsible for the extinction of the Lin family from this world."

Fang Yan's eyes went wide when he heard the news. 'What?' Even though he recently started Cultivation, he heard about Lin Family. They are one of the most powerful families in this world. How could they disappear overnight?

Even though he knew he would be the most powerful man in the world in the future, he would not be so cold-hearted as to annihilate the entire family. The image of his old man flashed before his eyes. He was killed by a cultivator.

Subconsciously, he blurted out, "How could he do that? How could he annihilate the entire family? Isn't he despicable?"

The man frowned when he heard that. "Are you stupid? What would you do if someone wanted to kill you? Will you let him go? Will you spare anyone who might harm you in the future?"

Fang Yan was rooted to the spot.

"You are still very naïve," the man smirked. "But I can't blame you, since you still have to experience this world. I don't know how you started your cultivation, and I don't care. But you must understand one thing. This world is cruel, and people are killed over minor disagreements. Even though you have your own pride, you should know when to step back; otherwise, you would not even know the cause of your death."

He exhaled and shook his head. "You are very impulsive, but sometimes you have to use your brain to get out of the situation. Just take that young man, for example, even though did not personally annihilate the Lin Family, he used his resources to get his work done. The Lin family tried to kill him in the valley, but they failed. What would happen if he spares them? They'll try other methods to kill him, right? So it is not wrong to take care of your problems, and it is advisable if you use your resources and surroundings to solve the problem"

"Anyway, I just wanted to let you know about him. He has limitless potential and is incredibly smart. He has the potential to become a very dangerous and powerful man in the future. If you want revenge, you must double your efforts. And keep in mind that when you reach the Heavenly realm, I have a great opportunity for you. You can kill him if you seize this opportunity."

The man's gaze was fixed on Fang Yan, who was lost in thought. But, all of a sudden, his voice became determined, and he yelled, "I understand."

Before returning to the cultivation room, Fang Yan exhaled and looked in the direction where that woman had disappeared.

But his steps came to a halt when he heard a man say, "Don't even think about her. Even though you have potential, she is out of your world."

Fang Yan was astounded; he closed his eyes and took a deep breath before entering the cultivation room, saying, "I understand."

...…

After leaving the courtyard of the Elder, he strolled through the entire market before he went back to his courtyard.

But as soon as he stepped inside, his attention was drawn to Shi Yi, who was practicing her sword near the tree. Her gaze was fixed on the slashes on the trunk of the tree.

Andy's steps came to a halt as he stood there, his gaze fixed on Shi Yi, who was lost in her own world.

His brows arched when he saw that she seemed to be very skillful in using the sword. Even though she has a hateful personality, she was very hardworking towards cultivation.

He shook his head and walked towards his room. Meanwhile, Shi Yi took a deep breath as her gaze was drawn to Andy.

Her fists clenched and her lips pursed as a mixture of hatred and helplessness flashed across her face.
