Perfect Villain Life: Universal Job Change

Chapter 14: You’re Not Lin Yu? Fine, Then You’re a Void Cultist

“Now?” Qiu Bo was a little surprised to hear this, not expecting it to happen so suddenly!

In his view, even though they had found traces of Lin Yu, killing him and reclaiming the Arcane Source was still troublesome.

After all, it was during the college entrance exam period. Representatives from various academies would arrive tomorrow for the national examination, which garnered nationwide attention.

If they acted during the exams, the Regent Government would be extremely furious. Moreover, if the Arcane Source were exposed, it would be a huge problem.

Therefore, Qiu Bo believed the best plan was to continue monitoring Lin Yu and act after the exams were over. But he never imagined they would strike today, right in the city!

Seeing the confusion on Qiu Bo’s face, Qin Xian did not offer any explanation. Everyone viewed Lin Yu as the primary target, but only Qin Xian knew Lin Feng was the child of fortune.

He was the truly tricky one, worth caution. A son of luck possesses extraordinary luck, brimming with unlimited potential. If Lin Feng were to be admitted to a top academy, gaining their protection, he would have four years to grow.

In four years, who knows how strong he could become? He might very well become a significant threat to the Qin family!

Tomorrow was the college entrance exam, and today, the governor of Donghai Province, Chen Beiguo, had left—presenting an opportunity!

Qin Xian decided to take immediate action!

Indeed, because Lin Feng’s status was too low—just an ordinary high school student—the Qin family targeting him raised suspicion and complications. 

However, ultimately, it was merely a complication… Two ants to be crushed. There was no need for elaborate schemes…

As long as they obtain the Arcane Source, even if the Regent Government learns of it and becomes furious, the price Qin family might pay would be worth it.

Once they acquire the Arcane Source, whatever the cost, the Qin family would regain it a thousandfold!

Standing with hands clasped behind his back, Qin Xian’s eyes gleamed with near-maniacal desire at the thought of the Arcane Source!

…

Donghai City, Yaoshan Market.

Lin Yu visited his butcher shop once more. He greeted the neighbors; having lived there for over ten years, he was well acquainted with them.

He stroked the shop’s counter; the small store wasn’t large, but it was neat and tidy. Lin Yu’s eyes revealed a hint of reluctance. After all, he had been there for over a decade and had grown attached to it.

Regrettably, he would have to go on the run again once Lin Feng’s college entrance exam concluded tomorrow. Even so, Lin Yu was filled with hope.

Lin Feng was perfectly suited to the Arcane Source. Once he gets into the Jixia Academy, he could venture into the void and search for the Emperor.

Once the Emperor returns, everything would improve. The Qin family would face due judgment, and his fallen comrades from the K77 Massacre could rest in peace.

Even he could return openly and rejoin the military! He had had enough of these years of hiding…

Lin Yu could also feel that several eyes were on him from every corner, causing him to scoff inwardly. That’s the benefit of being insignificant. When you’re tiny enough, even the lofty dragons don’t know how to deal with you…

Suddenly, Lin Yu’s heart skipped a beat. He turned abruptly and saw a remarkably handsome young man standing with his hands behind his back, curiously examining his little shop. Behind him stood an elderly man with white hair.

Lin Yu glanced at the old man, and his eyelids twitched. He could sense that this old man was stronger than him!

Lin Yu put on a simple smile, “I’m about to close; sorry.”

The young man smiled and sighed, “Major General Lin Yu, you’ve had a rough time these past years…”

Hearing this, Lin Yu’s heart sank, and his eyes narrowed as he realized the young man’s identity! The eldest son of the Qin family, Qin Xian!

Lin Yu maintained a neutral expression and said calmly, “You’ve got the wrong person. My name isn’t Lin Yu, nor am I a major. I’m Lin Ye from the Western Borders, a former mercenary for several guilds, who saved enough to open this little shop in Donghai City.”

Lin Ye, the alias Lin Yu had used for the past ten years, was an identity bought from the black market. This identity was flawless. Those guilds were all black market shell companies, with records that were clear and traceable.

After all, his identity cost him millions. All documents were in order, and even the police department wouldn’t find anything suspicious. As long as he denies it, he was Lin Ye, not Lin Yu!

Lin Yu wondered what Qin Xian was up to. Was he trying to provoke him into making a mistake? If that was the case, he underestimated him too much!

This was Donghai City, and tomorrow was the college entrance exam. As long as he didn’t slip up, he couldn’t believe the Qin family would dare to act in the city!

“Oh, is that so?” Qin Xian showed no anger at Lin Yu’s denial; his gaze was even a bit mocking, as if ridiculing Lin Yu’s ignorance. “Alright, if you’re not Major Lin Yu, then you’re Lin Ye… A void cultist everyone wants to eradicate!”

Before Lin Yu could react, the silent Qiu Bo suddenly made a move. A surge of intense energy erupted, with four pillars of light shooting up around Qiu Bo, blasting toward Lin Yu.

Boom—!!!

A terrifying explosion obliterated the shop and the surrounding hundreds of meters, everything consumed by the energy, reduced to rubble!

Screams and cries echoed like a hellish scene, with severed limbs scattered everywhere. Countless civilians were affected, suffering severe casualties!

Lin Yu hovered in mid-air, watching this scene with an incredulous expression, his face filled with disbelief. He never imagined Qin Xian could be this insane!

Daring to disregard civilians and strike in a bustling city area!!! Was he mad? The Qin family’s power was vast, but not to the extent of being truly lawless! This wasn’t just ignoring the law but challenging it!

Even if the Regent feared the Qin family, he couldn’t allow this!

Seeing Lin Yu’s disbelief, Qin Xian smiled slightly, revealing an arrest warrant in his hand, “Lin Ye from the Western Border, former member of Black Fox Guild and Scorpio Guild, a 52nd-level Crimson Lotus Knight who has connections with void powers.”

“A core member void cultist involved in numerous void sacrifice events. Currently lurking in Donghai City, to be killed at all costs. Imperial Police Department, June 22nd Order.”
