《Life of a Villain》Chapter 2: Who am I?
Advertisement
As his eyes read the book’s text, he realized it was a novel set in the cultivation world. It piqued his interest because he hadn’t read a book like this in a long time.
After further reading, he realized that this was a typical cliche novel in which the main character grows stronger from a powerless young man.
The novel was based on the orphaned character Fang Yan. How he started his cultivation journey and overcame challenges.
He was so engrossed in the story that he didn’t realize it was past midnight.
“What a fucker,” he muttered as he turned the page.
As he read the book, he became increasingly engrossed in the character of Fang Yan. When he first began cultivating, he became so inflated with the arrogance that he began killing those who opposed him. He had become so engrossed in power that he had forgotten what it was like to be a powerless man.
He became even more arrogant after slaughtering the novel’s first villain, Lu An. Fang Yan murdered Lu An because he was the girl’s fiance.
According to the book, Lu An gave a pitiful smile as he was on the verge of death.
Andy sighed after closing his eyes for a moment. Despite his exhaustion, the novel’s suspense kept him on pins and needles.
He was thirsty after not drinking any water for a long time. He went to the living room after leaving the book on the bed to get a water bottle from the refrigerator.
His gaze was drawn to the time on the wall clock as he drank water. It was one o’clock in the morning.
He was taken aback to discover that he had become so engrossed in the book that he had failed to notice the passage of time.

There was, however, a reason he became attached to the book. He could easily relate to Fang Yan, who was also an orphan struggling to make a living in the world.
His heart swelled with emotions when he read that Fang Yan had inherited a Great Cultivation Inheritance of a Supreme Saint.
Nonetheless, the more he learned about Fang Yan, the clearer it became that he had a twisted personality and was a complete asshole
His true colors began to surface after he started cultivating. His power grew quickly, and he became inebriated by it. He started murdering people over minor disagreements and even started stealing other people’s fiancees.
Overall, he turned into a complete asshole
It was later revealed that Fang Yan was the long-lost son of a powerful family. When he discovered this, his arrogance skyrocketed.
Quite the cliché.
Andy returned to his bed after drinking the water and resumed reading the book.
Although the main character grew into a complete jerk. Andy’s curiosity was completely unchanged, and he was determined to finish the book.
Andy couldn’t put the novel down after reading it all day and all night. With bloodshot eyes, he scanned the last line of the book.
“And the universe was wiped out.”
As he closed his eyes and dropped the book to his chest, his mouth curled into a sigh.
He was exhausted after reading the book for the entire day.
He was so tired after reading the book all day and night that he fell asleep as soon as he closed his eyes.
But then the book on his chest glowed, and it bathed his entire body in white light.
Suddenly, the light vanished along with the book as the breathless Andy lay on the bed as the clock ticked in the background.

................
A handsome silver-haired boy slept soundly on a plush bed. As he opened his eyes, his face twitched.
When he looked around the room, he had a confused expression on his face.
A groan of pain escaped his lips as a sharp pain struck his stomach.
He felt extremely weak when he struggled to sit up. He sat down and carefully scanned the room before his gaze was drawn to the image of the boy in the mirror.
After a brief moment of shock, he staggered over to the mirror and hurriedly examined it.
In the mirror, an image of a thin young man with silver hair wearing a black robe appeared. The boy appeared to be around the age of 18.
“What in the world happened?” His voice cracked and his mouth dried up. As he touched his face, panic gripped his heart.
“What the hell happened to me”
“AAAAAAAAAAAHHHH”
Suddenly, a deafening headache struck him, and an eerie scream escaped his lips.
He twitched on the ground in pain after suffering from a headache, and his entire body shook.
The headache had subsided, but his eyes were vacant as he stared at the roof.
When he remembered the memories that had filled his brain just moments before, he mumbled with an unnatural expression on his face.
“Who am I? Lu An?”
