The Villain Loaded My System

It had been quite some time since Gu Xiyu came to Bu Tianhan’s demon palace, and they had long been able to enter the next stage of dual cultivation—the interaction of the Yuanshen—only that he had always refused Bu Tianhan’s request.

For cultivators in the cultivation world, physical contact was superficial; fusion in the yuanshen was the true intimacy. The yuanshen was the most vulnerable part of a cultivator, so everyone protected this aspect of consciousness. Gu Xiyu, who has experienced several mission worlds with the Great Demon, was very familiar with his soul. Back in the secret stone pagoda, whether it was the intimate contact of the body or yuanshen, Bu Tianhan had already indulged in what could be indulged in.

Bu Tianhan had branded the so-called mark on him by force that day, despite his wishes and pain.

He originally thought Bu Tianhan would remember on his own, but to his surprise, the man still had no memory of it. Now he didn’t want to wait any longer; only he remembered such memorable things, and if he didn’t stimulate this surname Bu, he would never remember them until death.

Gu Xiyu could see the instant change in Bu Tianhan’s eyes, and the ambiguous atmosphere quickly dissipated, replaced with biting chills.

Gu Xiyu has long been used to the innate coercion of the Great Demon, and compared to the tension Bu Tianhan gave him at the beginning, he was more relaxed now.

After all, provoking Bu Tianhan was his purpose.

The main system, which had not spoken for a long time, sensed his playfulness and asked him, [[Is it really okay for you to make him so angry?]]

[[Aren’t you afraid of being bullied later?]]

Gu Xiyu asked back in a very good mood, “It’s fine, wasn’t I miserable enough at the stone pagoda?”

After hearing this, the main system chuckled but did not reply.

After a pause, he then asked the main system in passing, “Why do I feel that you are not distressed, it’s more like you are looking forward to it? Come to think of it, every time I’m in danger because of the mission target, you seem to be quite happy.”

“It’s like, the target is happy, and you can feel it.” Gu Xiyu asked curiously, “Is the main system and the mission executor or mission target, capable of establishing emotional empathy?”

Seeing that the main system seemed to be somewhat unsure of what he meant by this question, he added, “For example, when the target is doing it with me, can you feel the same pleasure?”

Gu Xiyu’s remark was very straightforward, and it was he who chuckled this time.

[[…… probably not.]] The main system didn’t seem to expect him to ask this, and it took a short while before answering.

Gu Xiyu: “Probably?”

“…No.” The main system’s voice was not too soft, not too heavy, and it was hard to hear whether there was a mixture of embarrassment.

Gu Xiyu also did not care, and after getting the answer, he did not say anything else, as if it were just a bit of teasing while waiting for Bu Tianhan to make a guess and answer. Bu Tianhan was still holding him tightly, but he was frowning deeply. The long-lost hostility appeared in his eyes. It mixed with the blood red and made him look even more depressed.

Once an imprint has been made, it was difficult to remove. First, the invader must be far more capable than the one who made the mark, and second, Gu Xiyu must be willing to do it. If he resisted, the process would become very difficult, and even if they were able to finish it, he (Gu Xiyu) would still be injured.

Gu Xiyu could feel that Bu Tianhan was trying to suppress the jealousy within him. The man placed his hand on the back of his head, caressing it not too gently, and said, “I can’t, you tell me.”

The corners of Gu Xiyu’s lips rose slightly, and the smile that had not yet blossomed soon disappeared again. “If you want to know so badly, why don’t you come in and see for yourself?”

If Bu Tianhan wanted to, then he could only use force to suppress and forcibly break through the defense around Gu Xiyu’s yuanshen. But then Gu Xiyu would get injured, and even if he didn’t get injured, the stimulation of that moment would be very strong, which would leave some sequelae.

He held back and said in a deep voice, “I don’t want to hurt you, just tell me.”

Gu Xiyu took the opportunity to look at the risk value on the panel. Bu Tianhan had the word “anger” written all over his face, but the risk value remained unchanged. He felt that Bu Tianhan had changed a lot over this period of time, at least he knew how to curb his malice.

Of course, what made him feel even more satisfied was Bu Tianhan’s care and cherishing these past weeks. It was not in vain that he had been busy for several worlds, even indulging the crazy great demon in this world to do whatever he wanted to him.

Gu Xiyu habitually hooked his hands around Bu Tianhan’s neck and leaned down to his ear, yet he still maintained his emotionless persona and said in a flat tone, “Haven’t you done worse to me?”

“I’m not afraid of pain, if you’re capable, you can see for yourself.”

If Bu Tianhan could remain patient after such provocation, then he would pity the title of ‘great demon’ that he had been carrying all these years.

In the face of such an uncooperative Gu Xiyu, Bu Tianhan pushed him down and stopped reciting the dual cultivation technique, simply doing what only two people in a very close relationship would do. The deeper the provocative smile in Gu Xiyu’s eyes, the more anger he felt in his heart, yet he couldn’t really do anything to him.

He could only hate that he had acted too late, allowing someone to get to Gu Xiyu before he did. If he had been bolder at the Tiansu Immortal Sect and hadn’t had so many scruples, wouldn’t the first time have been his?

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became, and the heavier the force became, so much so that Gu Xiyu, who was usually very enduring, couldn’t help but let out a muffled groan, but there was a faint smile in his eyes. The man didn’t have the slightest hint of guilt; instead, he became even more arrogant!

Bu Tianhan was in a trance, thinking that Gu Xiyu looked a bit different from his usual appearance, he was no longer the high and mighty Tai Ling, who was clearly in front of him but was distant and difficult to approach. Now, he had an indefinable smoky aura. Although it was vague, it still made Bu Tianhan realize once again that this person was not the real Tai Ling after all.

It was the person he liked.

He originally thought that just having this person would be enough. But it was not until this moment that he remembered that Gu Xiyu was not from this world at all, that this was not the real him.

Realizing this made Bu Tianhan even more dissatisfied inside, he didn’t just want this person to stay by his side; the real him would leave this place sooner or later. He wanted to get in touch with the true soul beneath this body, the real Gu Xiyu.

If Gu Xiyu had a way to break away from this world in the future, would he be able to come along?

If he left his exclusive imprint on his yuanshen now, wouldn’t he be able to sense his presence even after he left?

The more Bu Tianhan thought about this, the more the irritation in his heart grew, and the desire to possess surged with a ferocity that made him want to find every way to bind this person to himself. So this time he didn’t hold back, but instead indulged himself to unleash a strong pressure on Gu Xiyu, forcing his way through his already weak defense.

The domineering and powerful aura directly wrapped itself around Gu Xiyu’s yuanshen. Even if he was strong-willed, his body could not help but tremble the moment Bu Tianhan touched his yuanshen. His breathing stalled, and his thoughts went blank for a while. After receiving the pressure from the intruder and being subdued, Gu Xiyu, who was clearly on the weaker side, lost all ability to resist and could only obediently let the other party do as he pleased.

Probably because of the anger he had aroused, Gu Xiyu felt Bu Tianhan more strongly than he did at the stone pagoda that day, and after struggling for a while, he simply gave up and went with the flow.

On the contrary, the furious Bu Tianhan became dismayed and bewildered the moment he touched the imprint on Gu Xiyu’s yuanshen, and all the anger dissipated.

Even if he couldn’t recognize his imprint, he could definitely recognize the spiritual power remaining on it. The power was clearly his!

The moment he touched it, many blurred images that had long been sealed away in the depths of his memory gradually became clear, and the bed chambers slowly took on the appearance of a familiar stone room. The memories he had forgotten began to emerge, and in his ears were the sounds of helpless complaints, which in the end became stifled compromises.

And suddenly, the words “Bu Tianhan, it hurts” had a cause and effect.

He thought it was because he had accidentally injured Gu Xiyu when they were fighting at the stone pagoda at that time, but he didn’t expect it to be –

Bu Tianhan suddenly understood why Gu Xi Yu had stared at him with such sullen eyes when he came out that day. Maybe he saw that he had lost his memory and looked casual, so the anger inside him became even greater.

The aggressiveness disappeared without a trace at this moment, and Bu Tianhan’s movements became gentle with guilt. A part of him was angry at Gu Xiyu for not being straightforward and having to tease him, and he asked in a deep voice: “Why didn’t you just tell me?!”

Gu Xiyu sneered, and replied: “Tell you directly, how is that interesting?”

He could hold grudges.

Bu Tianhan’s mood turned from cloudy to sunny instantly, and then he began to push the issue: “You could have stopped me, why didn’t you?”

Gu Xiyu replied calmly: “It’s better to let you hurt me than to hurt others. To me, it doesn’t matter.”

“That’s it.” Bu Tianhan suddenly reached out and grabbed his chin, forcing him to look at him: “It means that if someone else was in the stone pagoda that day, would you be indifferent?”

He thought that Gu Xiyu would take advantage of the situation and say ‘yes’, so as to provoke his anger again. However, after waiting for a long time, he didn’t hear Gu Xiyu’s answer, only his unsteady breathing.

Bu Tianhan couldn’t hold back and tightened his grip a little until he saw him frowning uncomfortably before letting go.

He felt that Gu Xiyu was quite cunning. He deliberately didn’t answer so that he could have some hope in his heart. He hoped that this person was not really ruthless; even if he could cultivate the emotionless dao to such a high level, it was only because of the talent left by the original owner of this body.

Bu Tianhan was injured when he went out not long ago, so he didn’t toss Gu Xiyu for a long time this time, and it was Gu Xiyu who forced him to concentrate on reciting the dual cultivation formula that could help him recover.

After Gu Xiyu cleaned his body, he sat beside the sleeping Bu Tianhan and stared at the system panel for a long time.

It was playing Bu Tianhan’s past in this world over and over again. The things he did, the people he killed, the people who attacked him, and those who bullied him.

If you look closely, you can see that during the period when he began to rise to power after going on the demonic path, most of the people he killed were those who had once bullied him, including the Bu family. Except for a few who had broken away or left the Bu family early on, as well as Bu Mingfeng, the others had all died at his hands.

The risk value on the panel had dropped to 35 points after tonight’s events, but he could feel that it was almost at its limit. It was like that hacking software back in the modern world that helped one withdraw cash, the initial amount came easily, but the later one would be tougher than climbing a mountain.

[[Have you thought through this?]] The main system’s cold, mechanical voice rang out, its calm tone riding on the tranquil atmosphere around it and sounding particularly reassuring.

Gu Xiyu suddenly became less gloomy as he replied, “I have to leave sooner or later, it will be difficult to complete the mission unless the knot in Bu Tianhan’s heart is dissolved.”

“I can only gamble.”

The reason for the delay in the reduction of the risk value was that Bu Tianhan couldn’t convince himself to trust him, to trust that his indulgence was not due to coercion. The walls were built by the experiences he had encountered in the past, and even if he pulled his heart out and displayed it in front of the great demon, the other party would think of a hundred reasons to convince himself otherwise.

He needed to think of a way that would directly destroy Bu Tianhan’s walls.
