NOVEL NEXT Chapter 1:
Chapter 1: Destiny’s Greatest Villain
Jiang City.
Inside a finely crafted villa with countryside charm, Su Chen muttered to himself, “I’ve transmigrated.”
As the words fell, he absorbed all the incoming information.
He had transmigrated into a novel titled Return to the City: The Dragon King’s Comeback, and had become a villainous rich second-generation heir. Fortunately, the body was still his own. That made Su Chen feel relieved; after all, having an 18-point physique was an advantage not everyone could have.
[Ding! Destiny’s Greatest Villain System activated!]
At that moment, a voice suddenly rang out in Su Chen’s ears. Very quickly, he accepted and understood the system’s functions. In the future, as long as he seized the opportunities, luck, and women meant for the original protagonist, he would be able to earn Reversal Points. Reversal Points could be used to draw prizes.
“Oh, interesting.”
The corners of Su Chen’s mouth lifted.
With a system in hand, everything would become much easier.
Soon, he began to recall the first plotline.
The plot began with the protagonist Ye Xuan, who had a stunningly beautiful senior sister named Ye Qingyan. She was so beautiful that she seemed untouched by mortal life, like a fairy descending from the heavens.
However, Heaven bestowed upon her goddess-level beauty while also condemning her with endless misfortune.
Ye Qingyan’s father, Ye Xiaoyao, was murdered right at the start of the novel—and it was done through a live broadcast.
Ye Xiaoyao was also the protagonist Ye Xuan’s revered master.
Thus, the opening of the novel was filled with intense hatred. Witnessing the scene on the live broadcast, Ye Xuan’s eyes filled with blood and tears. He set off alone on a journey of revenge, deciding to go abroad to temper himself.
Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river.
He vowed that one day he would return to take revenge on the murderer. It would be a battle to the death.
At the same time, Ye Qingyan, full of sorrow and longing, stood atop the “Lover’s Stone,” waiting for her beloved to return. It was an extremely romantic love story.
From there, it wasn’t hard to guess the rest—after all, the novel’s title was Return to the City: The Dragon King’s Comeback. After returning to the country, Ye Xuan began a massacre, which was the novel’s ultimate point of satisfaction.
The author even provided a special setting.
Ye Xuan and Ye Qingyan had grown up together as childhood sweethearts.
After Ye Xiaoyao’s death, due to the secret manual being passed down only to males, the technique was not given to his own daughter but instead to Ye Xuan.
Ye Xiaoyao had even left behind a secret letter, instructing him to go abroad for training. Thus, Ye Xuan received the inheritance, improved his skills abroad, learned countless abilities, and when he returned to Xia Country, he not only charmed countless women but also established his own power.
Among the women he pursued was Su Chen’s fiancée, Xia Ruoxi.
In the original plot, Su Chen was just a shameless bootlicker, constantly humiliating himself and drawing hatred, repeatedly being slapped in the face by Ye Xuan.
In the end, Su Chen’s family was destroyed, and he lost everything.
That was the original plot.
“I died miserably,” Su Chen said, covering his face with a bitter smile.
He looked like a wronged soul, half mocking, half ridiculing himself. Suddenly, a faint, handsome smile formed at the corner of his lips. “From now on, I’ll be the one to rewrite the ending~!”
The plotline officially began…
“The first plot point,” Su Chen recalled.
In the first chapter, Ye Qingyan started by hiring a detective to investigate her father’s murderer.
However, an accident occurred during the investigation, causing her to mistakenly believe that someone from the Su family was responsible. Thus, she infiltrated the Su family as a maid.
Due to a series of misunderstandings, she eventually believed it was Su Chen who had killed her father, filling her heart with hatred.
Ye Qingyan originally planned to kill Su Chen in secret, but Ye Xuan stopped her. He promised her that he would personally avenge their master and his senior sister.
Not only would he kill Su Chen, but he would also destroy the colossal Su family step by step. He warned Ye Qingyan not to act rashly.
In the later plot, with Ye Xuan’s help, Ye Qingyan gradually fell for her junior brother.
After destroying the Su family, they eventually discovered that the real murderer was someone else, an even greater villain behind the scenes. The plot continued from there.
But Ye Xuan lost nothing in the process.
By then, he had already won over Ye Qingyan, and the number one female lead, Xia Ruoxi. He also devoured the entire Su and Xia families, as well as many other female characters’ affections throughout the plot.
The plotline was overwhelmingly satisfying.
Moreover, the later parts of the plot kept their momentum, ensuring the plot didn’t collapse, achieving countless gains in one move.
But! How could Su Chen possibly allow him to have his way?
“So, Ye Qingyan wants to find a detective, huh?”
Su Chen’s expression turned charming and devilishly attractive. His eyes gleamed with a playful yet mysterious smile, and the corners of his lips curved with wickedness.
He had decided… to impersonate the detective.
He would set up a trap—a massive, inescapable web of lies!
