Villain Too Many Children of Destiny, I Choose to Lie Flat – Chapter 23

Chapter 23: I’m the Victim Here!

Bai Yu Mo, despite feeling a tad annoyed inside, replied with the same coolness as a cucumber, “Thanks for your concern, Senior Brother, but I have no idea what you’re talking about. I was only showing my brother around the Heavenly Sword Sect.”

Seeing that Bai Yu Mo was hitting a wall, that disciple gritted his teeth and turned viciously to Bai Feng: “Fine, you’re quite something. You even tried to fool me. Don’t think I won’t spill the beans about what you did to White Junior Sister that night!”

Bai Feng blinked: “?”

That night? What exactly did I do to Bai Yu Mo?

“Senior Brother, are you having hallucinations from overwork? I just joined the Heavenly Sword Sect; I’ve never even seen you before,” Bai Feng said, puzzled.

“You really don’t know when to fold ’em,” the disciple almost burst out laughing in fury. “Let me give you a hint: that night, Bai Yu Mo was forced to wear a purple dress and grimaced painfully on the street. How do you explain that?”

No sooner had he spoken than a few other disciples whispered in shock:

“Ugh, the White Family really isn’t kind. Bai Feng got off scot-free and still tried to control Bai Junior Sister?”

“I knew Bai Feng wasn’t a good guy. Don’t worry, Bai Junior Sister, this is the Heavenly Sword Sect; the White Family can’t do anything to you here!”

Their voices grew louder, nearly everyone overheard, and some disciples who already doubted Bai Feng’s goodness joined their chorus.

Bai Feng ignored the gossip. The moment that disciple brought up the ‘Night Incident,’ he suddenly remembered—wait, system, isn’t that when I was supposed to gain luck points?

And hearing that, he instantly got angry!

That was clearly Bai Yu Mo setting me up! I am the real victim!

Just as he was about to speak up and defend himself, Bai Yu Mo, with a look of displeasure, cut him off:

“Senior Brother, I failed to advance to the Golden Core because I was unwell. Please stop making things up,” she said softly.

The disciple, frustrated, pressed further: “Junior Sister Bai, why are you defending him?”

“What do you mean, I’m defending my brother?” Bai Yu Mo’s face returned to calm, but her icy eyes sent shivers down spines. “You think you can just fantasize that I’m under White Family control because I’m unwell? And that I am being forced because I’m being coerced, simply because I talk to my brother and you can’t accept that it’s my own choice? What do I have to do for you to believe that my actions are out of my own will?”

“Junior Sister Bai, this… this…”

The disciple sensed a coldness that cut even deeper than winter, mixed with murderous intent. He panicked, stammering.

“Get lost, or I’ll never want to see you again.” Bai Yu Mo suddenly radiated a terrifying aura. Although she just broke through to the Golden Core days ago, her presence was even more intimidating than seasoned Golden Core masters. “Next time you spread rumors, I’ll see if my sword is sharp enough to cut through your nonsense.”

Even this fellow, a fellow Golden Core cultivator, couldn’t withstand her murderous aura. He clenched his teeth, trembling uncontrollably. After several agonizing seconds, he turned tail without a word, fleeing like a scared rabbit.

Bai Yu Mo turned and swept her icy gaze over the loudest gossiping disciples.

In an instant, the few quivering figures looked like ducks with their necks caught, sweat beading on their foreheads. They felt as if they were in the depths of winter, clad only in thin robes, with Bai Yu Mo’s piercing stare like a biting wind that chilled to the bone.

“Get out of here.”

The disciples felt a sudden weight lift from their bodies, and they scrambled and slithered away at top speed, disappearing from everyone’s line of sight.

Once all was quiet, Bai Yu Mo let out a breath of relief. She turned to Bai Feng, a smile returning to her face: “Brother, problem solved. Let’s go back.”

Watching her face flicker like an emotional switch, Bai Feng couldn’t help but twitch his lips.

Wow, her mood swings are way too fast!

I never thought my little sister could be so terrifying. Guess I’ve got a new side of her to get used to.

【Ding! Congratulations, Host! Successfully drove away the Child of Destiny’s subordinate using the strategy of ‘Taming the Tiger and Swallowing the Wolf.’ Reward: 30 Luck Points, +3 Cultivation Speed.】

Seeing the system popup, Bai Feng’s eyes narrowed slightly.

Not because he was excited about more luck points — no, rather because that phrase ‘Child of Destiny’s subordinate’ caught his attention.

He’d thought he just encountered an extreme disciple, but now it seemed like some particular Child of Destiny was watching him with bad intent.

That’s troublesome. Seems like I shouldn’t go out for a bit, better to stay on Green Bamboo Peak and wait for the Sect Master’s plans.

“Understood, you can leave now,” a tall and slender man nodded, playing with his teacup.

If Bai Feng were here, he’d recognize that this messenger was the same Golden Core disciple who had previously smeared him and falsely accused Bai Yu Mo.

After dismissing the disciple, he turned to another man beside him: “Junior Brother, your observation skills need improvement. Even whether Bai Junior Sister was injured or poisoned by the White Family, you missed it?”

His voice cold as ice, he suddenly erupted with a powerful aura, blasting the nearest man away into the wall.

If Bai Feng were present, he’d recognize this as Senior Brother Chen, the troublemaker.

The man coughed up blood, clutching his chest, terrified: “Senior Brother, I… I didn’t mean…!”

“Shut up. I have no interest in hearing your excuses,” the man interrupted coldly. Then, his tone softened slightly as he fetched a pill from his storage bag and threw it to the trembling disciple: “Eat this and rest.”

“Thank you, Senior Brother,” the man quickly swallowed the pill, color returning to his face. “Senior Brother, is that all for this?”

“No way I’ll let it go that easily,” he chuckled, eyes sharp as a blade. “Since Bai Feng still dares to approach Bai Yu Mo, then he must die.”

Others might not know much, but as a member of the Ye Family, he knew some secrets about the White Family. Bai Yu Mo was not blood-related to the White Family at all, and Bai Feng’s actions had undoubtedly touched his bottom line.

In his view, only he could become Bai Yu Mo’s Dao Partner—and the true only one.

But Bai Feng definitely posed a threat. He suspected Bai Feng took advantage of Bai Yu Mo’s innocence when she was young, and he greatly disliked the White Family’s excuse about ‘casting out bones.’

Even someone like him was tempted by the Celestial Bone—how much more a mediocre son of the White Family?

As a fellow noble offspring, he knew all about the coldness and disdain that ordinary talents faced in the large clans. Their obsession with power surpassed everything.

Bai Feng transmigrated—and he has a younger sister born with Immortal Bones. He initially thought that as long as he clung tightly to his sister’s thigh, he could live a carefree life in this perilous world of cultivation. Until he woke up one day to discover that his mother was preparing to extract his sister’s Immortal Bones and implant them into him. Only then did he realize he was holding the villain script! Right at that moment, the System appeared. As long as he targeted any Child of Destiny and seized the Child of Destiny’s providence value, he could receive generous rewards. At the same time, however, if he plundered too much providence, it would draw the Child of Destiny’s wariness—or even outright hostility. Looking at the three Children of Destiny in this single city, Bai Feng decided—forget it! Whoever wants to be the villain can go ahead; there are already three Children of Destiny in this one city alone. He didn’t even dare imagine how many Children of Destiny might exist across the entire world. So, when the sects were recruiting disciples, he avoided that sect full of Children of Destiny. He also steered clear of those professions they frequented. Every day, he would just draw some ecchi arts, listen to music, and do whatever he felt like. Many years later, Tianji Tower had the opportunity to interview some Children of Destiny who were close to Bai Feng, asking them for their thoughts on him: Child of Destiny A: “No one understands Bai Feng better than I do. He’s nothing like the rumours that claim he coveted the Immortal Bones out of selfishness. On the contrary, he has no interest in Immortal Bones and has secretly been protecting his sister all this time.” Child of Destiny B: “Many people call me a Child of Destiny, someone fated by the heavens. But in my opinion, Brother Bai is the true favored son of heaven. He’s warmhearted and upright, walking the path of immortality with an ordinary body.” Meanwhile, Bai Feng, who was watching this interview, slowly tapped out a ‘?’ They’re slandering me! And you bunch of Children of Destiny—stay away from me!
