Chapter 1 Chapter 1 It’s better to strike first than to strike second.
"You're such a loser! You're such a disgrace to our Lin family!"
"Isn't it just a bump? Why does it look like you're going to die?"
"The Patriarch has given you so many rare potions, but you can't even gather your fighting spirit. Your physical fitness is worse than that of a street vendor..."
Su Cheng was awakened by the cursing.
She opened her eyes blankly and found herself standing in a courtyard.
The surroundings are lush greenery and verdant vegetation. In front is a stone road half-covered by flowers, and all kinds of noises can be heard from the end of the road.
At the intersection, several young men and women were surrounding a young boy sitting on the ground, laughing at him.
The boy was about sixteen or seventeen years old, thin and handsome. At this moment, his face was pale, blood was coming out of the corners of his mouth, and he kept coughing.
Su Cheng: “?”
Wasn't I supposed to be taking a nap at home? What was going on?
"Hey! Someone's coming!"
The young men turned around and saw Su Cheng standing on the side of the road, and their expressions changed immediately.
"Miss Su," one of them greeted her with a smile, "I'm sorry to bother you, but Lin Yun is a well-known loser in our clan—"
Su Cheng blinked, "Lin Yun?"
They were not speaking a language she was familiar with, but she could understand them without any difficulty and could subconsciously give responses in the same language.
"Yes," sighed the other, "you've only just arrived, so you probably haven't heard of..."
Su Cheng looked at the boy sitting on the ground.
He sat there with his head down, his eyes dull. After a few seconds, he suddenly showed a strange and confused expression.
The boy slowly raised his hand and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
There was a thin obsidian chain on his wrist, which was quietly changing because it was stained with blood.
In the middle of the chain is a dull grey jade pendant, on which a strange and intricate pattern slowly emerges.
The boy paused and froze in shock.
Su Cheng: “…”
Isn’t this the classic scene of blood activating special props!
It seems that the old man in the bracelet is already talking to the male protagonist.
Yes, the male lead.
A few hours ago, Su Cheng discovered a restricted novel titled "Legend of the Throne of God" on an external website.
The male protagonist Lin Yun died in a car accident in modern times and traveled to another world, becoming a good-for-nothing son of the Lin family, a prestigious family in Jinbo City, with the same name.
The good-for-nothing Lin Yun lost both his parents and lives with his uncle. Because of his poor talent in cultivation, he is often bullied by his relatives.
After the male protagonist traveled through time, he accidentally activated the artifact left by his father. With the help of the thousand-year-old soul in the bracelet, he began his counterattack journey.
But this is ultimately a pornographic novel, and the plot relies entirely on piling up hot spots, which account for a very limited proportion. The focus is still on the entanglement between the male protagonist and the female protagonist and the supporting female characters.
——There are endless scenes of pornographic movies, a wide variety of high-difficulty plays, and some niche, heavy-mouthed and bizarre elements.
The novel is serialized with millions of words, and the comment section is always full of gory comments. There are people debunking it, cursing it, cheering it on, arguing with it, gossiping about it, and even threatening to kill the author. It can be said that there is everything.
Su Cheng read the first part and skipped the rest before buying it. He also read some spoilers in the comments section.
Some people say that the plot becomes more and more confusing as it goes on, the hero's personality keeps changing like he has schizophrenia, and the author has gone all over the book and the settings, and all the logic is dead.
Some people suggested that the author should make it more erotic. If he can't write a plot, he shouldn't write it. Even if he wants to write a watery story, he should make it a little more watery. The male protagonist is fooled around all day long like a retard.
There are also abstract plots such as "the male protagonist was almost gang-raped by several male villains", "a certain god who had sex with the male protagonist was suspected to be a man before he became a god", "the mother and daughter who had sex with the male protagonist are actually skeletons, mud and body parts stitched together", etc., which make many people break down and say that the author liberates his sexual fetishes when he makes money, and he will be criticized sooner or later.
Su Cheng even laughed at it.
It was already noon, and she was feeling sleepy, so she turned off her phone and went to sleep. But when she woke up, she found herself here, just in time for the scene at the beginning of the novel.
After sorting out the memories of this body, Su Cheng was very sure that he had become a cannon fodder supporting character of the same name in the book.
This cannon fodder appears in two chapters of the entire text, and his role does not exceed three thousand words.
One chapter is just for show, and the next chapter is for death.
At that time, the comment section was full of question marks, because the author deliberately described her beauty, but not long after her second appearance, she was killed by the male protagonist.
The reason is very simple.
——Lin Yun once swore that since he had taken over the original owner's body, he would avenge the original owner's parents and kill all the enemies of the original owner's parents and their descendants.
Even though these bloodlines may be innocent, they are unaware of the grudges between their fathers.
"Su Cheng" is one of them.
This part of the plot was also criticized, with some readers saying that the protagonist of a pornographic novel should not have such a loyal character, as it would only make the novel look humorous.
“…”
Su Cheng looked at Lin Yun who was sitting on the ground.
He lowered his head and stared at the bracelet on his wrist. After a few seconds of daze, he suddenly stood up.
"Lin Ting!" Lin Yun shouted, "Were you the one who attacked me just now?"
The boys turned around one after another when they heard the noise.
"A sneak attack?" A tall young man took two steps forward. "I just bumped into you accidentally. You're not even a first-level warrior. If I had attacked you, you would have been dead long ago!"
Lin Yun looked at him coldly, "Apologize to me."
"Apologize?" Lin Ting sneered, "Who do you think you are? Do you deserve it? So what if I don't apologize? Can you still duel with me?"
Lin Yun raised the corner of his mouth and said coldly: "Okay, Lin Ting, you decide the time."
The others laughed.
"Is Lin Yun crazy?"
"Did that blow just now damage his brain?" "He wasn't very smart to begin with, otherwise how could he not have gathered his fighting spirit after the Patriarch had given him so many good things?"
Lin Ting was stunned when he heard this, and then he laughed out loud, "Hahahahaha, since you are seeking death, I will not hold back. Considering your injury, ten days later——"
"etc!"
Su Cheng suddenly interrupted them.
Facing many puzzled looks, she took two steps forward.
Lin Yun's bracelet is activated, the old man inside will provide him with help, and there are other female protagonists and female delivery plug-ins. He will become more and more powerful day by day.
In the duel ten days later, Lin Ting's heart meridian was shattered by Lin Yun's fighting spirit and he died on the spot.
Although she didn't care about Lin Ting's life or death, she didn't want to let Lin Yun develop.
Su cleared his throat and said, "Mr. Lin Yun, I also want to fight with you."
"?"
Everyone looked at her in confusion.
——She is the in-law of the head of the Lin family and has no blood relationship with their Lin family. This time she is just a temporary guest at the Lin family, waiting to participate in the college enrollment.
"you?"
Lin Yun turned his head and stared at her for a few seconds, a look of surprise flashing in his eyes. Then he looked her up and down, back and forth several times.
A smile spread across his lips. "Although I don't know you, because you are beautiful, I will satisfy you in ten days."
Lin Yun thought he would see anger or shame on the other person's face, but there was nothing.
"No," she simply said calmly, "Right now!"
Lin Yun was stunned for a moment.
He then communicated with the soul in the bracelet and understood the reason why this body could not be cultivated. He believed that as long as he had some time, he would be able to be reborn.
By then, whether it is the damn Lin Ting or this troublemaker, he will have a way to deal with it.
Especially since she is so beautiful and has a good figure, he has never come across such a top-notch beauty in modern times.
I'll have fun at least when the time comes.
but--
Now?
What a joke.
"Young lady," Lin Yun chuckled softly, his gaze fixed on her chest. "You're a dignified second-level magician, yet you're so impatient to challenge me, who's not even a first-level warrior. Do you really want to fight me? Or are you attracted to me?"
He thought the other party would be angry this time, or at least show some mood changes.
But still nothing.
She wasn't offended by the term "challenge," nor was she upset by the last sentence, nor did she change her mind.
Su Cheng pretended to be confused, "You mean, in ten days, you will be able to get a rank?"
Lin Yun frowned.
He did think so, but he couldn't reveal the soul in the bracelet, so it was naturally difficult for him to directly express his confidence in this matter.
"Ha," Su Cheng laughed, "What's the difference?"
The other teenagers looked at them in confusion.
“…What’s going on?”
"Why did you pick on that loser Lin Yun? He's not even a war sergeant!"
Warriors are divided into eleven levels in total according to the strength of their fighting spirit, their physical fitness and their overall combat power.
War servant, warrior, soldier, war general, war master, great war master, war patriarch, war master, war king, war emperor, war saint.
Each rank has nine star levels.
These Lin family members are all in their teens. They have all been certified by the Warrior Guild and become combat servants, that is, first-level warriors, but with different star levels.
Only Lin Yun has no rank at all.
Where is Su Cheng?
Everyone recognized the logo on her chest.
The surging wind and fog, the short slanted staff, and the spiral-shaped staff.
Wind element, apprentice magician.
Like warriors, magicians also have eleven ranks, and an apprentice magician is a second-rank magician.
The combat effectiveness between mages and warriors of the same rank is basically the same. As a second-rank mage, Su Cheng should choose a second-rank warrior as his opponent.
Not to mention Lin Yun, who has no rank, all the Lin family members present should not be able to beat her.
"you?!"
Lin Yun didn't expect her to be like this, and couldn't help but panic, "I just got injured!"
Don’t people in this world value fame and honor?
Isn't she afraid of being laughed at for bullying the weak like this?
He has no fighting spirit and no magic now, and his whole body is in pain. How can he fight?
An ordinary person could easily kill him!
"Oh, it's okay." Su Cheng shrugged, "I don't have so many requirements."
She looked relaxed, but in fact she was so nervous that her heart was pounding, she was sweating profusely, and her right hand behind her back was trembling slightly.
Then, between the trembling fingers, a gust of wind suddenly rose.
Tiny air currents swirled and gathered, and the wind elemental elves danced with joy, appearing and disappearing in the air currents, and soon condensed into a light blue sharp blade.
——A single wind blade is a second-level magic.
Its lethality is not that great. If the target is a first-level warrior who has fighting spirit to protect his body, the damage that the wind blade can cause will be very limited.
But if it hits an ordinary person, it's a completely different matter.
Su Cheng has the memories of his previous life, so he naturally knows how to release magic.
She held the wind blade and slashed at Lin Yun's neck.
Lin Yun's physical condition is not good, not to mention he is injured.
He dodged back in shock.
"No!"
The soul in the bracelet roared.
It was a moment later that Lin Yun understood what that meant.
When ordinary people see an enemy slashing at them with a knife, they usually dodge backwards. However, the wind blade in the hands of a wizard is different from ordinary weapons.
The light blue air blade flew out of his hand and hit the side of his neck with a whistling sound.
What is the speed of the wind?
The skin, blood vessels, and bones were cut open, and blood spurted out, staining the light-colored floor tiles red.
Lin Yun stumbled back, covering his wound. "You—"
Half of his neck was cut open, and blood was oozing out from between his fingers. For a person without any rank, such an injury would not last more than a few seconds.
He fell to the ground.
"What are you doing?!"
Suddenly, a roar came from behind, and the sound quickly spread from far to near.
A tall, thin young man came hurriedly and watched all this in disbelief.
"Master of the family..."
The young men around saluted tremblingly.
The Lin family is one of the prominent families in Jinbo City. The head of the family, Lin Zhen, is a nine-star warrior, that is, a fifth-level warrior, and is only one step away from advancement.
He is already one of the best masters in the whole city, and because of his practice of fighting spirit, he looks quite young.
"Su Cheng!"
Lin Zhen's face turned pale as he looked at the boy lying in a pool of blood, veins bulging on his forehead.
"Since you came to Amber City, I treated you with courtesy, considering you and my late wife are of the same clan. I never offended you, and now you've killed my nephew, my sister's son!"
An angry aura swept over him.
A force full of oppression was eager to pounce on the girl in front of him.
Su Cheng quickly took out a handkerchief and used the cloth as a cushion to pull off the thin black stone chain from Lin Yun's stiff arm.
"Master, look at what this is."
She held up the bracelet.
"I once had the honor of entering the magic tower of Grand Mage Dawson. I browsed through some ancient books in her library. One of them recorded a similar pattern. This is the symbol of the Dark God's followers!"
The whole audience was in uproar.
The Jinpo City where the Lin family is located belongs to the Silver Moon Empire, which is the oldest and most powerful country in the Northern Continent. The entire Northern Continent is controlled by the Holy See of the God of Light.
In this land, beliefs related to the Dark God are absolutely forbidden.
In the past thousand years, there have been more than one massacres of entire families and entire cities due to this.
Some kingdoms were even destroyed because of this, thousands of acres of palaces were burned in the blazing light, and prosperous capitals were crushed into ashes by the iron hooves of the paladins.
"Destroy it!"
A young man from the Lin family screamed, "We can't become heretics! The people from the Church will kill us—"
"No, no, no! This is Lin Yun's stuff! We know nothing about it!"
They said in horror, "This has nothing to do with us!"
"You," Lin Zhen's face turned pale, "Miss Su, is what you said true?!"
Su Cheng nodded slowly.
She had just been thinking about how to save her life.
But whether it is making friends with the male protagonist, confessing to him the fact of traveling through time, stating that you are not the original owner, hoping that he will not come to seek revenge on you, or escaping under a false name, it is not safe, and it is equivalent to pinning your hopes on others.
It is better to eradicate the source directly.
Since Lin Yun could kill her for such a bullshit reason, she might as well take the initiative.
And there is one most important reason.
——Now happens to be the time when Lin Yun is at his weakest. There will be no such opportunity in the future. After all, he has too many plug-ins and becomes stronger too quickly.
Taking into account many factors, she knew that any further hesitation would mean missing the opportunity, so she simply gritted her teeth and made up her mind.
But she still needed an explanation that could deal with the head of the Lin family.
A reason that would allow him to completely exonerate himself and not pay the price for murder.
The most interesting thing is that the pattern on the bracelet does have some connection with the Dark God.
The old man with the cheat said it himself. He was full of resentment when he mentioned the God of Light. He also taught the protagonist how to hide the bracelet, saying that this thing must not be seen by the people of the Holy See.
"Why else would I challenge him to a duel?"
Su Cheng raised the bracelet higher and watched with satisfaction as the people around him stepped back.
"It's because of this! We all receive the grace of His Majesty the God of Light. I will never allow anyone to openly wear such a filthy and blasphemous dark object!"
“…Exactly.”
Lin Zhen closed his eyes and quickly calmed down.
He looked at the corpse with a hint of reluctance, then retracted his gaze. "You're right. We need to destroy it as soon as possible."
The matter is of great importance, and Lin Yun’s life is naturally not more important than the safety of the entire family.
What's more, Lin Yun has poor talent and is a loner. Although Lin Zhen takes good care of him, the relationship between the uncle and nephew is not very deep.
"Okay," Su Cheng handed over the handkerchief, "This is a dangerous magical item. I suggest you don't touch it with your skin."
Lin Zhen was actually a little skeptical, wondering if she was just after the bracelet. After all, enchanted ancient collections could easily attract mages.
Now that I see her hand it over so smoothly, I believe it even more.
He didn't dare to take it at all. Seeing this, he just waved his hand and let her put it on the ground.
Su Cheng put the things down without hesitation and took a few steps back.
The next second, a ghostly black shadow suddenly jumped out of the bracelet.
The black shadow was blurry and only the outline of a human figure could be seen. At this time, it was showing its fangs and claws and looked very angry.
"you!"
The shadow turned and roared at Su Cheng, "You ruined everything! I, I've waited for two thousand years, you running dog of the God of Light! Pathetic, stupid believer of a false god—"
Lin Zhen's face changed drastically.
His last doubts also disappeared.
Who dares to openly insult His Majesty the God of Light in the Northern Continent?!
He is the supreme God with supreme glory, the ruler of all gods, the master of the divine realm, and the object of faith for all things in the world!
That's a being that can burn down a continent just by looking at it!
No matter what is in this bracelet, it will bring disaster to the Lin family!
Without hesitation, a dazzling red light burst out from his hand, and he gathered his strength and punched down.
After a loud bang, the ground in the courtyard rumbled, bricks and stones cracked and shattered, and smoke and dust rose up.
Su Cheng breathed a sigh of relief and slowly stepped back.
Then, she was horrified to find that she could not move.
The whole world began to dim and fade, turning into a black and white ink painting. Everyone around seemed to be frozen, as if the pause button was pressed.
"You did influence some things—"
She heard a sigh.
The sound seemed not to be transmitted through the eardrum, but rather to penetrate deep into the soul, a soft and cold touch brushing through the depths of the spirit.
"But now it seems that you might be more suitable."
What?
What is suitable?
Her mind was in a state of chaos, as if she had sunk into a quagmire.
The voice was devouring her, destroying her sanity, stripping away her consciousness, and taking her to a distant and illusory world.
"So you..."
Nothingness descended suddenly.
She could no longer hold on, her mind completely scattered, and she fell into a deep sleep.
In a trance, a light fell on my eyes, and a joyful voice came from the side.
"Hey! You're finally awake!"
Su Cheng opened his eyes and found himself lying on the bed. Surrounding him was a warmly decorated bedroom with thin curtains hanging from the bedposts and dim warm yellow lights.
The head of the Lin family stood by and looked at her, his face full of love and regret.
"Chengcheng, you're still young. Uncle tells you, there are plenty of men. As the saying goes, the old must go before the new comes..."
Su Cheng: “???”
Wake up, how can you be my uncle!
Your wife is my cousin, and you are obviously my cousin's father-in-law!
Seeing her bewildered look, Lin Zhen couldn't help but sigh, "You fainted from anger when you saw the visiting card they handed you..."
He shook his head and said, "You have a good rest. They will be here tomorrow. The people from the Chamber of Commerce are still waiting for me. I'll go first."
Then he left.
Su Cheng looked at his back in confusion and sat up from the bed in bewilderment.
Not long after, two more young men suddenly pushed the door open, both with gloating expressions on their faces.
They looked quite familiar.
It seemed that they were all the guys who surrounded Lin Yun and made sarcastic remarks not long ago.
"Hey, Su Cheng, we all heard that your fiancé who's studying in the capital has become a celebrity at Nanhe College!"
"Alas, it's a pity that Murong Yue is about to break off the engagement with you."
Su Cheng's pupils trembled.
Murong Yue?
Isn't this the name of the protagonist's fiancée in the original novel? !
