Villain: Destiny Transfer System

"Isn\'t that guy the second protagonist?" Wang Chen whispered as he crouched behind a nearby tree, peering at the figure in the distance.

"Has he become the protagonist yet?" Wang Chen asked the system, hoping to learn the second protagonist\'s status and potentially take advantage of his opportunities.

[No, he didn\'t gain the protagonist identity yet.]

"Tsk," Wang Chen clicked his tongue in disappointment, contemplating his next move.

"Now, what should I do?" Wang Chen muttered under his breath, feeling confused about how to handle the situation. If it were any other person, he would have killed all the red sect disciples, including the young man. However, he knew that the young man was soon to become a protagonist, and if he tried to kill him now, he would face the interference of heaven\'s will, which he was not strong enough to defend against.

"Should I follow the routine of saving him and then owing him a favor?" Wang Chen thought, considering his options.

As this was the most feasible solution to deal with this type of situation, if he came forward and saved the protagonist by killing these disciples, he would gain the trust of the protagonist and kill these disciples like killing two birds with one stone.

Suddenly, all the Red Lotus sect disciples who were bullying the young man heard a rustling sound from a nearby bush and turned their heads to look.

To their surprise, they saw a young man in a robe similar to theirs step out from behind the bush..

"Dammit, one more guy appeared," Zu Ming muttered under his breath. Previously, it was hard enough dealing with these nine Red Lotus sect disciples, and now another one appeared. He was sure he couldn\'t escape from here, and only a miracle could save him.

The other nine Red Lotus sect disciples had different thoughts this time, as they needed to check to which faction this new guy belonged. If he belonged to Yue Jang\'s faction, same as them, then it would be good. But if he was from Su Chen\'s faction, then the only result would be to kill him, just like they were planning to do with the young man after snatching the third order herb.

To confirm his identity, one of the guys took out a round object and checked if any extra red dots appeared. As expected, a red dot appeared, but it shocked them that the red dot shown in the round object was too big compared to their three red dots, and they got no information regarding this situation.

The guy who checked earlier informed the others about this problem, and after discussing it, they came to the same conclusion and looked toward Wang Chen. "Greetings, senior," they said with a polite tone, cupping their fists and giving a light bow to Wang Chen.

\'What\'s with this situation?\' Wang Chen thought to himself, feeling puzzled. He had expected them to belittle him or trash talk him, but instead, they became quite polite, which messed up his entire plan. He wondered what was going on and why they were treating him this way.

"So he is their senior?" Zu Ming thought to himself, as he took a few steps back, trying to find a way out of the situation.

The Red Lotus sect disciples had already cornered him. They were standing at the edge of a deep valley, with jagged rocks lining the bottom.

The air was thick with red mist, making it difficult to see beyond a few feet. and he knew that he didn\'t have a chance of winning against them.

He thought to himself, "I will die anyway, so why give them what they want?" With this thought, he suddenly jumped out from the corner of the valley and free-fell into the abyss below. The mist-like red miasma surrounded him as he plunged deeper into the unknown depths.

"Wait." Wang Chen tried to stop Zu Ming as he saw him suddenly jump from the valley towards the red miasma, which is considered the end of any disciple\'s cultivation journey. This is because the red miasma is quite poisonous to a cultivator as it corrodes their Qi and their foundation.

which is dangerous. If the foundation is corroded, they couldn\'t cultivate anymore until it is removed by a treasure or someone with a high cultivation base.

However, this is not a problem for Wang Chen as his Devouring physique allows him to devour the red miasma. But he couldn\'t stay there for long, as he couldn\'t completely control his devouring physique power. If he lost control, it would not only be the red miasma harming him but also his devouring physique.

\'If I follow the second protagonist now to the depth of the miasma, I\'m sure he would get some nice opportunities there. But it wouldn\'t be too good, as he hasn\'t awakened his protagonist identity yet. So I wouldn\'t take the risk of going down there,\' Wang Chen thought. He was disappointed because if he met with this second protagonist again, that guy would see him as an enemy. Wang Chen didn\'t want that until he finished dealing with the first protagonist, Yue Jang.

"Senior, we apologize for our incompetence in retrieving the third order herb. That guy didn\'t escape, but instead committed suicide and took the herb with him," one of the disciples stepped forward and spoke with a remorseful tone. He then added, "But don\'t worry, we will find another way to acquire the herb." His sly smile betrayed his true intentions, hinting that they might resort to snatching or stealing from other disciples.

"May I ask how you were able to recognize me as your superior? I\'m certain that neither the Great Elder nor Yue Jang informed you of my identity," Wang inquired.

He asked the question before eliminating them because he sensed that something was off. He had only been eliminating other disciples and collecting their tokens, so he couldn\'t understand how they could recognize him as a senior. He had been using the names of the Great Elder and Yue Jang to avoid suspicion, hoping that they wouldn\'t doubt him. Since he could freely use their names, he thought that they would consider him a legitimate senior.
