Xiao Ran shook her head slightly. In her eyes, whether it was Ye Chen or Fang Chu, they were both the cream of the crop, exceptional figures among men.
Yet now, they were being played right in the palm of Xu Mu's hand.
She couldn't explain it; Xu Mu was clearly shrewd and deep, yet he didn't give her the impression of someone who enjoyed plotting against others.
At this moment, Xiao Ran didn't know how to face the man before her.
What position should she take?
However, the words Xu Mu had just spoken had truly touched her.
Xu Mu observed the distant battle. Currently, Fang Chu and Miyako Fuka were fighting Ye Chen together.
However, the outcome of this battle mainly depended on Ye Chen and Fang Chu.
As for Miyako Fuka, she was originally part of Ye Chen's harem. If he didn't interfere, he believed she would soon become Ye Chen's woman.
"Right."
Xu Mu suddenly remembered that he hadn't checked their Destiny Power in a long time.
He recalled that Fang Chu's Destiny Level was previously seventeen. Now that his power had recovered, it should have increased by a few levels.
He checked Fang Chu first.
Name: Fang Chu
Character: Male Lead of "The Ultimate Live-in Son-in-Law"
Destiny Power: 2010
Destiny Level: 20 (Max Level 10)
Seeing this, Xu Mu was shocked. He hadn't expected the Destiny Level to rise by three levels in such a short time.
And this didn't even account for the Destiny Power Xu Mu had stolen from him earlier. If he added what he had taken, Fang Chu would surely have reached level twenty-one.
He remembered that Chen Xuan's Destiny Level was also only twenty-one.
However, compared to Fang Chu, Chen Xuan was a few years younger.
Plus, Chen Xuan had just come down from the mountain. Generally speaking, this was still the early stage of his storyline.
Chen Xuan would definitely see massive growth later on.
Xu Mu then turned his gaze toward Ye Chen. He remembered that Ye Chen's Destiny Level was already thirty.
Name: Ye Chen
Character: Male Lead of "Dragon King's Descent"
Destiny Power: 3090
Destiny Level: 30 (Max Level 10)
Xu Mu nodded to himself upon seeing this; it didn't exceed his expectations.
Fang Chu's level had increased significantly because his power had been restored.
Ye Chen, since his return, hadn't done anything major. Furthermore, most of the harem members connected to him had been intercepted by Xu Mu ahead of time.
This caused him to lose the method of acquiring Destiny Power through his harem.
Being able to grow by a few dozen points was already quite impressive.
Currently, in terms of both Destiny Level and personal cultivation realm, Ye Chen held the advantage.
Unless something unexpected happened, Ye Chen would definitely win this time.
The reason Xu Mu orchestrated this was simply to see what consequences would arise when two male leads fought each other.
Boom!
Ye Chen sent Miyako Fuka flying with a single palm strike, then charged toward Fang Chu once again.
Watching from a distance, Dai Xuan was terrified by the scene before him.
In the battle among the Grandmasters, Huang Qu had the upper hand.
And in Ye Chen's battle, even fighting one against two, he also held the upper hand.
"Ye Chen! I've already had someone chop off one of your woman's arms! If you dare attack again, I'll chop off one of her legs!"
Dai Xuan continued to threaten him.
"I told you just now, no one can control my fate! It is her honor to be able to die for me. I will avenge her—with the lives of every single one of you!"
Ye Chen continued his assault.
Hearing this, a trace of coldness appeared in Xiao Ran's eyes.
"I really envy Ye Chen," Xu Mu suddenly said softly.
"Why do you envy him?" Xiao Ran turned to look at Xu Mu.
"I envy him for having a subordinate like you. Apparently, dying for him is considered your honor."
Xu Mu shook his head with a smile. "If there was someone willing to die for me, I'd want nothing more than to cherish and spoil them."
[Favorability +10]
Xiao Ran naturally understood what Xu Mu meant. Although she wanted to defend Ye Chen in her heart, she truly did not like hearing the words Ye Chen had spoken.
In the distance, Dai Xuan realized the battle was turning against them, so he quietly retreated behind a building.
Fang Chu was blasted away once again. Feeling his trembling arms, his eyes filled with killing intent.
He had hit walls everywhere recently—did they really think he was a soft persimmon?
Buzz!
His eyes flashed with light. "Ye Chen! Let me show you my true strength!"
Bang!
The surrounding earth trembled, and dust filled the air. Gravel and dirt swirled around Fang Chu like a tornado.
Fang Chu now looked like the planet Saturn, surrounded by rings.
Terrifying power erupted from his body, and yellow light flickered ceaselessly from every pore.
Seeing this, Ye Chen's expression gradually grew grave. Judging by this scene, it was absolutely a Heaven-rank technique.
Whoosh!
Fang Chu instantly attacked Ye Chen.
Boom!
Their Qi collided once again. However, even with the boost from the Heaven-rank technique, Fang Chu, whose realm was lower, was naturally not Ye Chen's match in terms of raw Qi.
But the dust wrapping around his body began to spin rapidly. Ye Chen suddenly frowned, his face turning extremely ugly.
Boom!
Fang Chu broke through Ye Chen's defense and sent him flying with a punch.
Ye Chen's body slammed into the iron scaffolding behind him, causing the metal to bend.
With a thud, he landed on the ground, blood spilling from his mouth.
Ye Chen immediately stood up, but his body swayed; he couldn't stand steady at all.
Whoosh!
Fang Chu stomped on the ground, and sharp spikes drilled out of the earth again.
Ye Chen immediately rolled on the ground, barely dodging them.
Seeing this, Xiao Ran instantly clenched her fists, her body trembling.
"Go if you want to. After all, you are his person," Xu Mu said indifferently upon seeing her reaction.
"I... I'm sorry!"
After Xiao Ran said that, she immediately ran toward Ye Chen.
Xu Mu shook his head slightly. She was going to save Ye Chen, so why apologize to him?
Anyone who didn't know better would think Xiao Ran was one of his own people.
"What happened?"
Ye Chen covered his ears, staring at the approaching Fang Chu. "You attacked my vestibular system?"
"You really are knowledgeable. I don't mind telling you—my move is unblockable."
Fang Chu gave a faint smile. "Dust Shadow Control. Within a certain range, I can use this move to control all dust, including a single speck."
"Dust?"
Ye Chen covered his ears, clearly understanding what had happened.
"That's right. Dust is everywhere. Everyone has dust in their ears. I used this move to make the dust vibrate violently, attacking your eardrums and vestibular system."
Fang Chu spoke calmly. "The vestibular system controls the body's balance. You must have felt so dizzy you wanted to vomit just now, right?"
"It is indeed very strong. Unless I'm mistaken, this should be a Heaven-rank technique, right?" Ye Chen asked.
"Correct. But this move is too difficult to master. Back then, I even went into Qi deviation to cultivate it. But now, I've finally mastered some of the techniques."
Fang Chu pointed at Ye Chen. "You, can die now."
"Hahaha! Do you think you're the only one who knows a Heaven-rank technique?"
Ye Chen threw his head back and laughed. "In this world, you aren't the only one with good luck!"
Boom!
Ye Chen stomped on the ground, and the golden points of light on his body almost connected into a single sheet.
At this moment, a phantom of a dragon's head appeared around his body. The massive dragon head was as large as a truck.
And Ye Chen himself stood within the dragon's head.
"True Dragon Body!"
. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"
