[Martial God Cultivation Method, Price: Villain Points.]
[SSS-grade Extraordinary Weapon – Heavenly Immortal Blade, Price: Villain Points.]
[Shattered Star Realm Cultivation Method, Price: Villain Points.]
…
Looking at rows upon rows of cultivation methods and weapons that would make even a Martial Saint burn with envy, Su Yu could not help but feel a twinge of greed.
These were treasures that even Martial Saints would struggle to find.
Not to mention the SSS-grade extraordinary weapon and the so-called Shattered Star Realm cultivation method.
Just taking out the Martial God Cultivation Method alone would be enough to shake every Martial Saint across the globe. If news of it leaked, his life would not be safe.
Even if his grandfather was a Martial Saint, it would not protect him.
A Martial God.
Aside from the Martial God who laid the foundation of cultivation a thousand years ago, there had never been another Martial God on the entire Blue Planet.
That one, after suppressing the battlefield beyond the domain, vanished from the solar system together with the alien Martial God. There had been no trace of them ever since.
Although his heart burned with desire, Su Yu clearly understood his current strength.
He could not protect such things.
And he did not have enough Villain Points.
He did not even have one-tenth of what was required.
“Not in a hurry. Just slightly targeting Chu Feng and Lin Panxi yesterday already brought in nearly 10,000 Villain Points. There are so many opportunities ahead. As long as I intercept them all, why would I worry about not being able to exchange for them?”
They were all his anyway. For now, they were just being stored in the system shop.
Su Yu kept comforting himself in his heart.
After browsing casually for a while, he exited the system space.
There were indeed some items he could exchange for, but he did not need them. The Su Family already had them.
The ones he needed, he could not afford.
It was truly difficult.
Su Yu could not help but sigh. Even though the Su Family was considered the number one family on Blue Planet, compared to the system’s treasure vault, it really was nothing.
Because just that one Martial God Cultivation Method alone was enough to make countless Martial Saints bankrupt themselves to obtain it.
Even…
If it required them to hunt down another Martial Saint, they would not hesitate.
One Martial God was enough to make up for the gap of dozens of Martial Saints.
“Chu Feng, you need to work harder. I’ll give you a bit more pressure so you can find your opportunities faster.”
Not for anything else, just to push the protagonist to improve himself.
The more he thought about it, the more he felt he was actually quite kind.
There were not many villains like him who hoped the protagonist would work hard.
Giving himself a mental thumbs-up, Su Yu did not hesitate. He picked up his communication device and began arranging public opinion.
“Contact all major media outlets and self-media platforms. Tell them about the broken engagement between me and Lin Panxi. In addition, downplay my presence. Guide the narrative toward her relationship with Chu Feng. Also expose how the Lin Family secretly supported Chu Feng.”
From the other end of the device came an extremely respectful voice. “Yes, Young Master. I’ll handle it immediately.”
Su Yu ended the communication in satisfaction.
He was very confident in his subordinate’s ability to handle matters.
Although he had never personally manipulated public opinion, in his previous life’s entertainment-driven era, he had seen plenty of ways to guide narratives.
In this cultivation-focused era, guiding the entire society might not be realistic.
But guiding public opinion within the capital was certainly no problem.
…
As expected.
Not long after Su Yu’s order was given, in less than six hours, most people in the capital knew the full story.
At first, they had been confused about why the Su Family and the Lin Family had suddenly fallen out.
Now, under Su Yu’s deliberate guidance, everything had been exposed.
“Shocking! The Real Reason Behind the Broken Engagement Between the Su Family Young Master and the Lin Family’s Daughter!”
“Insider Reveal: The Lin Family’s Daughter Found the Su Young Master Lacking and Secretly Kept Another Man at Home!”
“Capital Evening News: Lin Family Supports Their Daughter in Keeping a Man, Disregarding Their Fiancé’s Family and Shattering Moral Boundaries!”
A flood of mainstream media and attention-grabbing self-media accounts published articles one after another.
Everyone received push notifications about the news.
After reading them, older men who empathized with Su Yu’s experience were furious and rushed into the comment sections to discuss.
“I can’t believe it. The Lin Family’s daughter looks so stunning and elegant, yet behind the scenes she plays like this?”
“She’s not even graduated from Capital Martial University yet and already living like this. What will she be like in the future?”
“Su Young Master really had poor judgment. Sending so many orders and cultivation resources to the Lin Family every year, only to get this in return?”
“Isn’t the Lin Family going to control her?”
“Control what? Didn’t you read the news? The Lin Family even helped her support that pretty boy. I heard he even appeared in front of Su Young Master.”
“I’m a student at Capital Martial University. I can confirm this is all true!”
Not only ordinary people received the news. The talented students of Capital Martial University saw it as well.
Even the university forums and various social circles erupted into fierce debates.
“Damn, this is exciting. Lin Panxi is only a senior in her fourth year and already keeping a pretty boy?”
“Haha, campus belle? Does she deserve that title? If she didn’t like him, she shouldn’t have accepted the betrothal gifts. Wanting resources without paying anything, does she think she can have everything?”
“Feeling sorry for Senior Su. Senior, are you here? I’ll comfort you~”
“Feeling sorry is fake. You just want to sleep with Senior Su.”
“Hey, what are you doing? This is the school forum. Is this the place to drive like that? I’m also a fourth-year senior. I want in!”
The discussions grew more and more intense.
As for the parties involved, Lin Panxi and Chu Feng did not dare step forward to clarify anything.
Because it was not a rumor.
It had really happened.
At this moment, Lin Panxi hid inside the Lin Family residence, too afraid to go out.
Chu Feng, after waking from his coma that day, had chosen to leave the Lin Family to train himself. He swore that on graduation assessment day, he would defeat Su Yu and claim first place to wash away his humiliation.
Although they were not together, both of them hated Su Yu deeply.
In Lin Panxi’s eyes, it did not matter who spread the news. What mattered was that Su Yu, that despicable man, was behind it.
Clearly Su Yu was the villain. Why were they the ones being cursed?
He was the one who proposed breaking off the engagement first. Was it wrong for them not to return the betrothal gifts?
No, it was not.
Now the entire Lin Family was trembling.
Not because of the public opinion.
But because more and more partners were coming to cancel their cooperation.
Almost… covering every single industry under the Lin Family!
If all cooperation was truly terminated, the Lin Family would not last half a year before disappearing from the capital.
Lin Panxi had stayed at the Lin Family residence for several days until the school notified all fourth-year students to return.
At the entrance of Capital Martial University, a luxurious car slowly came to a stop.
The car door opened automatically, and a tall, slender figure stepped out.
He had sharp brows and bright eyes, with an exceptionally handsome appearance.
The moment he appeared, a commotion erupted at the university gates.
But among the crowd, a pair of beautiful eyes instantly turned red upon seeing him, and the owner of those eyes rushed toward him.
“Su Yu, you bastard, what right do you have to slander Chu Feng and me like this!”
