Perfect Villain Life: Universal Job Change

Chapter 15: Lin Yu’s Predicament

Void cultists are humans who believe in the power of the Void. The Void is the great enemy of the human world. In the depths of the Void, there exists great terror. Evil gods continuously entice humans, aiming to corrupt Earth.

The power of the Void is incredibly evil, filled with distortion and madness. However, the Void’s power is also very strong. 

Thus, some humans began to worship the Void, actively embracing it, becoming corrupted by the Void and transforming into Void cultists.

Their minds are bewitched by the Void, becoming extremely cruel, intent on destroying the human world and ushering in the Void’s arrival. 

Therefore, for all human nations, Void cultists are absolutely intolerable. Once discovered, they are executed immediately!

Lin Yu looked at the arrest warrant in Qin Xian’s hand, and his expression turned extremely grim! He realized he might have underestimated Qin Xian’s sinister ruthlessness!

He initially thought that, although he had been discovered by the Qin family, with the college entrance exams imminent, as long as he didn’t admit it, Qin Xian wouldn’t be able to expose his true identity.

The Qin family’s power was immense, but they couldn’t possibly risk everyone’s condemnation by launching a massacre in a busy area during the exams!

After all, the empire had stood for a thousand years, with its factions deeply intertwined. Not only was there the Regent Lu Ji, but there were also other factions, all keeping an eye on the Qin family!

As long as he escaped after the exams and Lin Feng entered Jixia Academy, he would wait for the day the Emperor returned.

Lin Yu never imagined Qin Xian would act in the opposite way! Qin Xian didn’t even try to force him into making a mistake to expose his identity. Instead, he directly placed these charges on his current identity!

Qin Xian ordered the police department to label Lin Ye as a Void cultist. As a result, the fake identity Lin Yu painstakingly obtained became his death sentence!

Especially since the search warrant was dated the 22nd, which was today, making it even more ironic. This meant the search warrant in Qin Xian’s hand was essentially self-issued…

The police department was becoming nothing more than the Qin family’s backyard!

Lin Yu’s body trembled slightly, filled with anger as he looked around at the wreckage within hundreds of meters of the shop.

Those kind, honest neighbors were caught in the crossfire, suffering countless casualties!

“How dare you!?!” Lin Yu, filled with pain, couldn’t help but shout angrily, “You actually dared to act directly!?”

Qin Xian’s face showed no expression as he glanced at the panicking crowd below, pausing momentarily, with a trace of what seemed like pity in his eyes.

Then he said calmly, “You know what I want, Major General Lin Yu. If you had given me that thing from the beginning, they wouldn’t have had to die.”

Soon, the trace of pity in his eyes vanished, replaced by a nearly indifferent determination.

“Weakness is a sin, for they are ants and are sacrificed. They can only blame themselves for being too weak…”

Lin Yu couldn’t help but roar, “The Regent won’t let you off; even with the Qin family backing you, you can’t massacre civilians!!”

“No, this was merely a mistake.” Qin Xian laughed; although his smile was gentle and courteous, warm as jade, to Lin Yu, it seemed exceptionally cruel!

“Several hours ago, the Donghai City Police Bureau began evacuation efforts. However, perhaps due to certain errors, the evacuation was not timely enough.”

“This is what led to so many casualties. Of course, those negligent will be punished accordingly…”

Lin Yu suddenly felt a chill rising from within. This young man was truly terrifying! This was an open plot, a strategy to force him into a desperate situation!

If Qin Xian truly intended to tear off the facade, Lin Yu’s careful plans and reliance were nothing against power and background! 

By acting under the guise of eradicating Void cultists in the city center, even if someone investigated the matter, procedurally, it would be unassailable, leaving even the Regent Government speechless!

Because Qin Xian had already lined up scapegoats. With so many civilian casualties, they could just push those scapegoats forward to take the fall for dereliction of duty. Having nothing to do with Qin Xian, the Qin family’s eldest son….

Such a ruthless tactic!

Qiu Bo looked at Lin Yu coldly, expressionless, the 58th-level battle mage steadily exerting pressure. In addition to Qiu Bo, several other powerhouses also appeared in the air.

Thoroughly sealing all of Lin Yu’s escape routes. The Qin family meticulously prepared to ensure nothing was left to chance. To guarantee success, nearly ten level 50 powerhouses were mobilized!

Ten level 50 powerhouses could easily destroy a small country.

Lin Yu’s heart sank to the bottom. Although he was a Level 52 Crimson Lotus Knight, facing ten level 50 powerhouses, including one level 58, he stood no chance!

His only chance lay in using the Emperor’s bestowed treasure to tear the space and escape!

[Dragon Vein Pearl: Rare Purple Epic, capable of teleporting to any location within 100 kilometers. Recharge time: 3 months.]..

During the K77 region incident, he escaped death using the Dragon Vein Pearl. This was why, after knowing his identity was exposed, Lin Yu remained in Donghai City. 

Lin Yu felt filled with regret and self-blame.

Just one more day, no, just one more night!

Once Lin Feng passes the exams and enters Jixia Academy, receiving its protection, he would immediately activate the Dragon Vein Pearl to leave Donghai City.

However, he never anticipated Qin Xian’s decisiveness, willing to sacrifice so many civilians, to act before the exams! He had been careless!

Underestimating the Qin family’s determination to reclaim the Arcane Source! If he were to activate the Dragon Vein Pearl now… What would happen to Lin Feng!?

With Qin Xian’s wrath, he might vent it on Lin Feng, even ordering his execution! To him, Lin Feng was not just the bearer of the Arcane Source, the hope of finding the Emperor. He was also his son! How could a father abandon his child?

To escape meant Lin Feng would die and to stay meant he would die!

At this moment, Lin Yu was caught in a dilemma, but soon, Lin Yu’s gaze became firm, filled with resolve, having made his decision.

He couldn’t escape! In his view, the Qin family’s target was him. As long as he doesn’t escape, Lin Feng was insignificant to the Qin family and should remain unnoticed….

He wanted Lin Feng to live! To live well!
