"My dear uncle, I think kids need a beating. Otherwise, they'll easily go down the wrong path."
"Ruoxu's talent in cultivation is indeed high, but his temperament is problematic. With such talent but such impatience, he needs a proper lesson, don't you think?"
Jiang Che straddled Jiang Ruoxu, one hand pressing down on the boy's head, pounding him while grinning widely at Jiang Yunwu.
Jiang Yunwu: "......"
Watching his son being brutally beaten, his mouth twitched uncontrollably.
He seriously doubted... was there some private grudge between his son and Jiang Che? Now the latter was taking personal revenge under the guise of discipline!
When Jiang Che started punching, no one else in the Jiang family dared to speak up.
Especially Jiang Yunhuang, who even chuckled, as if the one being beaten wasn't his own grandson.
An outsider grandson beating his own grandson, and he was just watching the show the whole time!
Even Jiang Yunli couldn't take it anymore, tugging at Jiang Yuan's sleeve, "Honey, isn't our son a bit too much?"
Jiang Yuan was somewhat helpless; she finally realizes it's excessive? Our son is about to beat the kid to death.
After about ten minutes...
"Brother!!! I'm sorry! Stop hitting me!"
Jiang Ruoxu finally surrendered, completely beaten into submission!
"Where did you go wrong?" Jiang Che stopped his fists.
"I... I... I don't know where I went wrong!"
"So you don't know your mistake! Looks like you still don't understand where you went wrong!"
Jiang Che delivered two more punches, not holding back at all. One punch and Jiang Ruoxu's mouth was already crooked. "Alright, so you're still twisting your mouth, huh?"
Jiang Ruoxu: "......" Wasn't that your doing? Is there no justice? No law?
The protagonist's life is tough; if he could be killed so easily... he might as well quit. Besides, there's Jiang Yunhuang, a grandmaster, here to back him up!
"I... I shouldn't have been so cocky. I'm sorry... stop hitting my face, or I'll be disfigured."
Of course, Jiang Che didn't listen, continuing to target his face.
Jiang Ruoxu was on the verge of collapse.
[Master! Master, are you there? Please help me! I'm about to be beaten to death]
Jiang Ruoxu looked at an ancient ring on his finger, trying to wake up some 'grandpa' inside.
Yes! Jiang Che's ring 'grandpa' was fake, but Jiang Ruoxu, the chosen one... actually had a real ring 'grandpa.'
Well... or maybe a 'grandma.'
Soon, the ancient ring glowed faintly, and a clear yet lazy voice entered his ears.
[You won't die. He doesn't want to kill you; he just wants to beat you up.]
Jiang Ruoxu: "......"
I have a swear word that I don't know if I should say...
[Master! Master, you are so powerful, please help me~]
[Stop talking, I'm going back to sleep. Wake me up when you reach the level of a master.]
[Master! Master! No——]
Back in reality, Jiang Ruoxu was completely defeated!
"Brother! I know! I won't be cocky anymore, I won't be arrogant, and I won't twist my mouth! Please let me go!"
Jiang Ruoxu, the chosen one, finally figured out where he went wrong after countless trials!
He shouldn't have been so arrogant and definitely shouldn't have twisted his mouth while being cocky!
"Hmm... not bad, quite self-aware."
Jiang Che lifted Jiang Ruoxu up and walked away.
By now, Jiang Ruoxu's appearance was utterly pathetic; his face was swollen like a pig's head. Despite his repeated pleas not to hit his face, every punch from Jiang Che landed there.
Jiang Ruoxu was completely beaten, his eyes filled with fear whenever he looked at Jiang Che.
[Ding! Congratulations, host, for completing the villain choice! Rewards obtained!]
[A bottle of Marrow Cleansing Pills (20 pills), a crate of Crimson Fruit (16), and ten Luck-Eating Cards]
Jiang Che's lips curved slightly; rewards in the bag, and it seemed this kid was completely convinced.
Indeed, nothing is simpler than convincing someone with your fists!
[Marrow Cleansing Pill: Can cleanse and strengthen one's bone and marrow, expand meridians and dantian, significantly enhancing one's cultivation aptitude, but only usable once.]
[Crimson Fruit: Top-tier heavenly treasure, can rapidly replenish internal energy, recommended for use in alchemy.]
[Luck-Eating Card: Host can fix a Luck-Eating Card to someone, making the target unlucky for 24 hours. Guaranteed to step on dog poop, forget toilet paper while pooping, instant noodles without seasoning, soda without a pull tab. Pee spraying your shoes, soup dripping your lap, farting out poop, tearing the toilet paper while wiping.]
Wow, ruthless!
The first two rewards are pretty good, but the third one is a bit... well, absurd.
The effect of these Luck-Eating Cards is downright terrifying!
It sounds utterly hopeless!
But... I like it!
"Brother, stop hitting me, I'm convinced, aren't I? I've realized my mistake, I won't make the same mistake again!"
Jiang Ruoxu's mentality was shattered. When had he ever been so brutally beaten?
As a genius, even his father rarely laid a hand on him, treating him like precious porcelain, afraid to break him.
But now, he was being beaten like this! He just wanted to cry!
"Don't worry, after all, I'm your cousin, how could I harm you?"
Jiang Che squinted his eyes and chuckled.
But this kind of 'friendly' smile was utterly terrifying in Jiang Ruoxu's eyes.
"I was just beating you to get the blood flowing, come here... this is a gift for you!"
Jiang Che pulled out a Marrow Cleansing Pill he had just obtained.
To be honest, seeing the kid beaten so badly, he felt a bit heartbroken.
And this kid really exploded; just by beating him up, he got a whole bottle of Marrow Cleansing Pills, a crate of Crimson Fruit, and Luck-Eating Cards.
Giving one to him was just a small compensation.
"What... what is this?"
Jiang Ruoxu frowned, staring hard at the Marrow Cleansing Pill in Jiang Che's hand.
Was this supposed to be poison to kill him?
Oh god, is there no justice?
This cousin of mine is a freaking bastard!
Jiang Ruoxu's mouth twitched.
When Jiang Yunhuang saw the pill in Jiang Che's hand, his mouth spread into a smile.
He knew his grandson was about to pull out something good!
But he wasn't envious or jealous. All he saw was the thriving Jiang family!
"Brother... spare my life!"
But just as Jiang Ruoxu said that, a voice suddenly came from his ring.
[Quick, quick! This is good stuff! Take it fast!]
Jiang Ruoxu: "???"
Wait... Master, weren't you going to sleep? Why are you suddenly awake again? Are you teasing me?
[I'm telling you, this is a perfect Marrow Cleansing Pill, can cleanse and strengthen your bones and marrow, elevate your already top-tier talent to perfection! You must get it!]
It was clear that Jiang Ruoxu's ring 'grandma' was anxious!
] This is a dark fantasy-themed dating simulation game. The main gameplay involves containing various monster girls and investigating the truth of a world shrouded in mist alongside your companions. However, due to his love for the dark and bizarre atmosphere, Luo Wei ended up turning a dating game into a detective mystery game. Women? Women only slow down his quickdraw! To Luo Wei, the female leads in the game are more like tools to perfectly clear levels and squeeze out rewards. For Luo Wei, flirting with every girl he meets and then discarding them is standard procedure. Worried about characters losing affection points? No need. With his maxed-out charm stat, Luo Wei is practically a "human incubus." A little psychological manipulation and those points come right back. It's a bit scummy, but the paper cutout heroines in the game won't actually come at him with real cleavers. However... Luo Wei has transmigrated. He's accidentally entered the second playthrough of this game. His past actions have caused all the girls to transform into terrifying yanderes. Due to the game's setting, most of the heroines he once contained are "troubled girls." Obsessive, twisted, mentally unstable, all aggressive yanderes... The type who will kill you if they can't have you... Luo Wei wants to cry but has no tears left. "I really just want to survive..." In short, this is a story of battling wits and engaging in a love-hate relationship with yanderes.
