Chapter 43: Collecting The Rewards!
Chapter 43: Collecting The Rewards!
Ashen's room, Phoenix Feather Sect,
"System, How many luck points does Mo Fan possess now?" Ashen asked with a serious expression.
The answer to this question would let him assess the value of luck points and the hard work he would've to put in to deplete them all.
He was now in his room, alone, after giving Ling Yun a room to herself.
Ling Yun was surprised when she saw how big Ashen's mansion was.
On the way she had seen multiple cultivation houses assigned to various disciples and hence knew that no one had this big of a house to live in.
She became even more vary of Ashen after seeing all this, however, decided to bid her time.
[Ding! Host, It would take 1000 villain points to know the luck points of Protagonist Mo Fan. Since He is far away from your location, I would've to ask World's Will for the answer]
"What? 1000 Villain Points??" Ashen was surprised by the amount of Villain points the system was asking.
He had learned a skill in exchange for 1000 Villain Points, remember?
He had become skeptical after suffering at the hands of the system and didn't really trust it.
To skip asking the System for the luck points of everyone and exhausting his villain points, He decided to ask the possibility he had thought about:
"System, Is there a skill that can let me see the luck points of the protagonist at all times? Or a permanent function of the system that will not exhaust my Villain Points in the future"
Ashen was afraid that the system would raise the amount of Villain points required to see the Luck Points in the future and hence wanted to get it over with.
[Ding! Host, There are two skills and one function that matches your description.
This skill lets your eyes connect to the world's will and look at the luck Points of anyone you want, not just the Protagonists and heroines. It is similar to looking from the World Will's point of View.
This skill lets you see a pillar of luck on a person's head, letting you get an estimate of the luck they possess. This skill can also let someone predict another's future by seeing their good and bad luck.
This function gets unlocked after paying a lot of Villain Points to the World's will. With this function, the system can look at the protagonist's luck Points despite the distance you have from them.
]
Seeing the three options in front of them, Ashen's eyes widened with shock and excitement.
He was surprised that such good skills existed in this world and excited to get his hands on them.
Luck was unpredictable in his previous world, however, here one could obtain skills to see others' luck.
Wasn't this news something to get excited over?
Now, the question was the price he would've to pay to acquire these.
Honestly, He liked the skill the most.
"System, what is the price for each of them?"
[Ding!
: 10 Million Villain Points
: 1 Million Villain Points
: 5 Million Villain Points.
]
"Sure enough..." Ashen murmured, rubbing his chin.
He had expected this and thus wasn't surprised.
The Prices were suitable for the functions they performed.
Ashen decided to go after and save Villain Points for it.
However, for now, he had no other choice than to pay 1000 Villain points to know Mo Fan's Luck Points.
With a sigh, he allowed the system to deduct his 1000 Villain Points in exchange for Mo Fan's Luck Points.
[Ding! Host, Good Choice. Here is the Protagonist Mo Fan's Luck Points.
Mo Fan: 210,000 Luck Points
"What?" Ashen expressed his surprise.
He didn't expect to see this large amount of Luck Points even after being so close to Killing Mo Fan.
"Just what kind of good deed he did in his previous life for him to have this much luck?" Ashen wondered with a sigh to himself.
He had expected to at least deplete Mo Fan's luck to less than 200,000 luck points.
"Let's check my villain points.
I must've gained a lot this time!"
He murmured before ordering: "System!"
The system understood what he wanted to see as it displayed multiple notifications in front of him.
[Ding! Host, you have successfully increased the danger for Protagonist Mo Fan in the event. You obtain 9000 Villain Points]
This notification was referring to the act of Ashen ordering Mo Chen to make the event more brutal and include killing.
This ultimately led to Mo Yi attempting to take Mo Fan's life
[Ding! Host, you have succeeded in making protagonist Mo Fan scared for his life. You obtain 5000 Villain Points]
[Ding! Host, you have successfully made Protagonist Mo Fan wrong in everyone's eyes and he is now considered a criminal. You obtain 10000 Villain Points]
These messages referred to the eloquent word play that Ashen did to frame Mo Fan in the wrong and remove sympathy from his side.
Now, in everyone's eyes, Mo Fan was a thief and a liar.
[Ding! Host, You have successfully killed Protagonist Mo Fan's helpers, reducing his luck by a lot. You receive 20000 Villain Points.]
[Ding! Host, You have succeeded in putting the Protagonist in a life-threatening situation and making the World's will expend Protagonist's luck Points to make him escape from you. You obtain 40000 Villain Points]
[Ding! Host, You have successfully altered the Protagonist's life path and affected his future by bringing Heroine Ling Yun away with you. You obtain 10000 Villain Points.]
This last notification was referring to how Ashen manipulated Mo Fan's future choice and altered his future choice of joining Vine Bull Sect.
This notification also confirmed Ashen's doubts. This meant that Mo Fan was going to join the Vine Bull Sect if Ashen hadn't brought Ling Yun with him.
....
....
....
Some other notifications were there as well, however, they only provided a thousand or two thousand Villain points, therefore, Ashen just skipped them.
After having a look, he summoned his status window,

--------------------------------
"Hmm... 106,800 points" Ashen murmured, assessing the Villain points he gained and the luck Points that Mo Fan had expended.
According to him, there must be a ratio that will convert them into one another.
If he knew that ratio, then he would be able to calculate the amount of luck he had to deplete next time to gain a certain amount of Villain Points.
However, there was one problem this time.
The Villain Points and Luck points gained and expended seemed to be almost equal with some difference.
He couldn't determine any ratio.
With this, he just decided to leave this question for a later time, thinking that he required more data regarding Villain Points and Luck Points.
Now, He drifted his attention to the most important question, and that was, what to spend these Villain Points on?
He could always save the Villain Points for later, however, there was just one little problem.
Ashen believed that any strength that he could gain right now would be better than to remain weak for the future.
What if he gets killed and doesn't get the chance to use these Villain Points?
He always had to remain cautious.
He had reincarnated as a prince in this life and from the memories he received, he knew that everyone would be after his life if they knew that he was a threat to them.
The race for the throne was on, his siblings were going at it and they weren't weak or dumb.
If they knew about him becoming powerful and having an 8-star spirit, they would give killing him the top priority.
He had to gain enough strength to at least protect himself from his siblings.
Him being here was only known to his mother and no one else.
He had already told her that he wanted to become stronger and grow his faction and forces far from the eyes of everyone.
His mother was happy to hear that and supported him in every way she could.
She even gave him a high-grade artifact that could hide your true cultivation from anyone below the emperor realm.
This artifact was the reason that he fooled so many king realm experts when he entered the sect.
Even now, that artifact was helping him to hide his true cultivation.
Although he was at the 9th stage of the origin realm, however, in most people's eyes, he was at the body transformation realm, while in Veli and Shiyue's mind, he was a nascent soul realm cultivator.
No one, other than himself knew about his true strength.
Ah, The world's will and the system also knew about his true cultivation if they count.
