After seeing off Xuanyuan Long, Ye Bufan's self-preservation value was also cleared to zero. Even if he was full of ambition, there was nowhere for him to exert himself.
After these two car accidents, Ye Bufan figured he should just honestly stay at home as an otaku. Every time he went out, nothing good happened.
---------
Time flies, and before he knew it, a year had passed. Jier City's business community also underwent an earth-shattering change.
A rising new game company, under heavy siege from various families, managed to pave a bloody path and reached the pinnacle by stepping on the corpses of the fallen.
What was shocking was that the one sitting on the throne of the gaming industry was an unbelievably beautiful woman. Strangely, no one could find anything about her background.
It was as if a genius had appeared out of thin air, and with the speed of a meteorite hitting the earth, started from nothing and took down all the gaming moguls who had been immersed in the industry for many years. It was unbelievable.
Of course people tried to take the fruits of her victory, but unfortunately their various means were useless. Sometimes they even helped pave the way for her rising business.
Some people tried a different approach, targeting the boss of the company. But alas, this delicate rose was untouchable.
While ordinary pursuit was fine, just being ignored, if someone tried to kidnap her, it was as if those people had never existed. They would lose contact in the blink of an eye.
After several attempts, no one played this self-defeating trick anymore.
It was through these repeated trials that Chao Fan Game Company solidified its position as a gaming industry giant.
Chao Fan Manor was what people called this mysterious manor, because Chao Fan Limited's boss Ye Shang lived inside.
However, informed sources revealed that Ye Shang was not the real owner of the manor. But everyone just scoffed at this, because they had never seen a second owner appear there.
Manor Villa
Ye Bufan comfortably lay on his king-sized bed, 30 square meters long, holding his phone and shouting loudly, "Go, go, go! These useless teammates!"
For a whole year, Ye Bufan spent most of his time in bed.
Nothing else, the protection ability of the quilt was the best in the world. As long as you hid inside, all evil spirits would retreat.
This year, not to mention going out of the manor, Ye Bufan rarely even left the villa. Accidentally triggering the disaster of blood and light was too easy.
Sometimes, while walking, a tree branch as thick as a thigh would smash down.
Or a manhole cover would crack open, and he would whoosh right into it.
Not to mention falling ceiling lights, decorative ceiling rosettes, leaking sockets.
Most outrageous of all, someone even tried to poison him! If not for Ye Bufan's quick wit, spending 100 self-preservation points to exchange for [Nine Yang Divine Skill], he would have croaked right there.
The system also specially updated itself, adding a loyalty attribute that could now be viewed for everyone.
Of course, these accidents also brought huge gains, especially that poisoning incident. Not only did he get a full 100 more self-preservation points, he also gained a future robot and a long-lost guaranteed profitable business exchange coupon.
No exaggeration, these were top grade stuff.
With the business expertise skill, it wasn't like Ye Shang's businesses had 100% guaranteed profit. Especially high risk industries, no one dared to guarantee profit.
Only the heaven-defying system could achieve this. Unfortunately like the robot, such exchange coupons could not be bought in the store, only randomly gained through accidents. Otherwise Ye Bufan would have bought a whole stack.
[Host: Ye Bufan]
[Self-Preservation Value: 19]
[Attributes: Speed 60, Endurance 60, Strength 80, Protection 500]
[Skills: Golden Bell Shield (50), Iron Cloth Shirt (10), Iron Head (10), Nine Yang Divine Skill (100), Golden Light Mantra Layman's Version (20), Indestructible Vajra Body (100), Diamond Indestructible Body (100), Brushing Clothes Eighteen Falls (10), Heaven and Earth Great Shift (100)]
In order to survive better, Ye Bufan had no choice but to stack his self-preservation points into defense. Without life, true death would come.
Fortunately learning these skills wasn't useless. It could be said now that even sweeping him with a machine gun was absolutely impossible to kill him.
Of course, a sniper rifle bullet to the temple would still mean game over.
The revolution is not yet successful, comrades still need to work hard.
The road ahead is long, the journey far.
"Master, I have arranged for Xuanyuan Long. Yu Liling knows you sent him and didn't stop him."
A young maid wearing a maid outfit, shaking her impressive figure, walked to Ye Bufan's bedside and reported to him.
Xi Mengsi, Robot No. 3, was responsible for all affairs in the manor. Ye Bufan had specially spent a lot to install many skills for her.
[Robot: Xi Mengsi]
[Attributes: Speed 500, Strength 500, Endurance 500, Protection 0]
[Skills: Management Expertise (10), Foreign Language Expertise (10), Cooking Expertise (10), Daily Expertise (10), Business Expertise (10), Nine Yin Scriptures (10)] (It's cheap for robots to learn)
The current Xi Mengsi could be called an expert in the hall and kitchen, and could also work part-time as a bodyguard. She was the manager among managers, the secretary among secretaries.
"Contact Ye Shang and have her come back immediately."
With a new business coupon in hand, Ye Bufan naturally wouldn't keep it. Money births money, only then could it give birth to more money.
Leaving the coupon to mold would be no different than wastepaper.
Compared to the previous acquisition of the gaming studio, finances this time were obviously much more ample.
After statistics from Ye Shang, usable cash on hand was 400 million.
Ye Bufan looked through the proposal drafted by Ye Shang, picking and choosing, and eventually chose a cosmetics company on the verge of bankruptcy.
Cosmetics, when done well, were very lucrative. But if done poorly, troubles were many. And its market prospects were very broad, perfectly suiting use of the business coupon.
Ye Bufan's dream had once been to make money by lying down. Now it seemed to have been achieved.

Jiang City
Compared to Ye Bufan's carefree days, life in Jiang City for Ye Feng was miserable.
Ever since that day an elderly man with a mysterious identity suddenly appeared, his happy two-person world with Sister Yu ended.
In addition to homework from school everyday, now when Ye Feng got home he also had to recite complex herbal medicine knowledge, and couldn't even rest properly at night.
Sitting cross-legged all night, also known as meditation.
The current Ye Feng was no longer that orphan with no one to care for him after both parents died.
Frankly, the former Ye Bufan didn't know how to take care of a child. Other than occasionally remembering his father's death and feeling sad, Ye Feng's life under Yu Liling's care was too good.
young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
