Villain: Manipulating the Heroines into hating the Protagonist



In the shadows of Wang Jian's expansive harem, a cadre of women remained concealed, their relationships with him clandestine and intimate.

Among them was Luo Qiu, the former Second Queen to Emperor Wang. Yao Niu, once the Empress of Emperor Wang, also held a discreet place within his heart.

Lady Xia, the mother of Wang Jian's second wife Fen Shuying, and Lady Zhuoran, mother to Wang Jian's Third Concubine Bixi Shuyan, were both entangled in the secret web of his affections.

And not only these, but many other women who had risen to positions of leadership in various factions shared in Wang Jian's secretive, passionate liaisons.

Each possessed an aura of allure that defied description, their captivating sensuality casting an irresistible spell over Wang Jian.

Over time, he had established an undeniable dominion not only over their bodies but their minds as well.

Amid Wang Jian's extensive web of intimate connections, two women remained untouched by his grasp, their purity seemingly preserved against his depravity.

One of them was Wang Ying, Wang Jian's own half-sister, a prisoner under his custody. She languished in a grim cell, her only connection to the outside world being the daily delivery of a newspaper by her guards.

Wang Jian orchestrated this deliberate cruelty, wanting her to be acutely aware of her faction's utter decimation, with its remnants swallowed by his own faction. The weight of despair pressed heavily on her as she absorbed the news.

The bitter realization that even her own mother, Luo Qiu, had thrown her support behind Wang Jian and helped him tighten his grip as Emperor of the entire realm only intensified her torment.

Wang Jian permitted Luo Qiu to visit Wang Ying, but never without his own imposing presence in tow. It was during these meetings that Wang Ying began to pick up on unsettling undercurrents.

Though she had initially brushed aside the hints, she couldn't ignore the fact that Wang Jian seemed to maintain an inexplicably close physical contact with her mother Luo Qiu.

A chill would slither down her spine whenever she caught that lecherous glint in Wang Jian's eyes as he cast his gaze upon Luo Qiu. The disgust and fear that churned within her were almost suffocating, leaving her with a haunting sense of foreboding.

Meanwhile, the second woman who remained untouched by Wang Jian's advances was none other than Yu Qing, the Scarlet Star Slaughter Goddess, and the master of Zhang Fei, the second protagonist of this tale. Presently, she was confined within the Divine Spirit Prison, a divine artifact exclusively designed to shackle spirits. This prison accommodated only a solitary spirit at a time, and Yu Qing was its current occupant.

Wang Jian's hesitation in releasing Yu Qing was rooted in a simple truth: he knew that the moment she gained her freedom, she would unleash a maelstrom of lethal fury upon him.

After Wang Jian eliminated the second protagonist, Zhang Fei, he acquired the Enchantment Ability, a power that granted him the means to enhance the favorability of any woman he set his sights on. Yet, the efficacy of this power hinged on the disparity between their respective luck values.

Given the substantial chasm separating Wang Jian's luck value from that of Zhang Fei's, successfully utilizing the Enchantment Ability on Yu Qing presented a formidable challenge.

Initially, the cooldown period for this ability was three months. However, after the system underwent an upgrade following the elimination of the third protagonist, this cooldown was drastically reduced to a mere month.

With each conclusion of the cooldown period, Wang Jian diligently employed the Enchantment Ability, targeting Yu Qing with a fervent determination.

He understood that even a single successful instance could potentially grant him unparalleled dominance over the entire continent, bolstered by her formidable prowess.

Yet, despite the supposed 20% chance of success, Wang Jian had repeatedly faced failure. His efforts remained focused on repetition and persistence.

For Wang Jian, there existed no alternative path but to continue striving, hoping that one day the dice of fate would fall in his favor, altering the course of his life's tumultuous narrative.

In the meantime, Jiang Chen plunged the Silver Devil Asura Dominion into utter chaos!

Devil clans of all sizes, from the colossal to the minute, turned their attention to this legendary ancient devil who had been unshackled from his prison.

Their gaze was both awestruck and apprehensive as they extended a warm welcome to Jiang Chen and his formidable army, acknowledging his status.

Within the dominion's boundaries lay branches of the Blue Moon Eclipse Devil Clan, Oceanic Tempest Storm Devil Clan, Nether Curseweaver Devil Clan, and the Heavenly Asura Devil Clan.

These offshoots found refuge within this realm, a sanctuary shielding them from potential annihilation.

The very existence of these branches in the Silver Devil Asura Dominion and scattered across the continent was a calculated strategy.

The logic was straightforward: should the mighty Heavenly Court decide to strike, their assault could only reach the devils outside the sanctuary of the Silver Devil Asura Dominion, sparing those within.

This strategic maneuver ensured the survival of these devil clans, offering them a sanctuary to thrive in the face of potential adversity.

It was a calculated measure to counterbalance the overwhelming power of the Heavenly Court, and thus each clan positioned itself within the confines of the Silver Devil Asura Dominion.

As events unfolded, it came as no surprise that the Heavenly Asura Devil Clan and the Oceanic Tempest Storm Devil Clan opted to align with Jiang Chen, recognizing him as their leader and pledging to heed his every command.

The rationale behind their decision was straightforward. The Oceanic Tempest Storm Devil Clan lacked a bloodline inheritor with access to the ancestral legacy. Without such a figure, regaining their former grandeur through conventional means seemed like an arduous task. In light of this, following Jiang Chen's lead appeared to be the most promising path.

Conversely, the Heavenly Asura Devil Clan didn't need to deliberate for long. Jiang Chen was, after all, an ancient expert hailing from their very clan. It was only under his leadership that they believed their clan could ascend to unprecedented heights of prosperity.

However, a different narrative unfolded for the Nether Curseweaver Devil Clan and the Blue Moon Eclipse Devil Clan.

In the case of the Nether Curseweaver Devil Clan, their leadership was held by an individual who had already secured the ancestral legacy of their clan. This individual, Zyrithia, possessed an ancient legacy that matched Jiang Chen's prowess.

On the other hand, the Blue Moon Eclipse Devil Clan was under the leadership of a member hailing from a higher realm's main family. It was none other than Wang Jian. They believed that Wang Jian's potential and prowess rivaled even those of legendary ancient experts.

With such powerful and talented figures at the helm, both the Nether Curseweaver Devil Clan and the Blue Moon Eclipse Devil Clan declined Jiang Chen's leadership, citing their own formidable figures to guide their destinies.

In the current scenario, Zyrithia found herself among Wang Jian's personal maids, compelled to carry out his wishes. Surprisingly, this arrangement didn't turn out to be all unfavorable for her.

Upon discovering that he possessed the genuine bloodline of the Blue Moon Eclipse Devil Clan, Zyrithia realized that aligning herself with him could open up avenues for her and her Nether Curseweaver Devil Clan.

Joining his ranks offered the tantalizing possibility of ascending to a higher realm, finding sanctuary within the folds of the Blue Moon Eclipse Devil Clan.

In essence, two distinct factions emerged within the expanse of the Silver Devil Asura Dominion.

On one side stood the Heavenly Asura Devil Clan and various other devil clans who willingly followed Jiang Chen's leadership.

On the opposite spectrum were entities like the Blue Moon Eclipse Devil Clan and other factions that declined to rally under Jiang Chen's banner.

Though each of these significant clans boasted Saint Realm experts, these formidable individuals remained unable to engage in combat against ordinary devils. This rule had been decreed by the Divine Spirit overseeing the Silver Devil Asura Dominion.

Even Jiang Chen couldn't disregard the stringent rule that governed the Silver Devil Asura Dominion, despite his former stature as an Immortal Realm expert. This was primarily due to the commanding presence of the Divine Spirit within the dominion's realm. This Divine Spirit held dominion over the domain's laws, wielding them at its discretion. Being targeted by the Divine Spirit meant inviting its wrath and the unrelenting might of the entire domain.

Jiang Chen recognized that even if he were to regain his Immortal Realm status, grappling with this domain would prove to be an arduous feat. This was underlined by the fact that if all other avenues failed and the Divine Spirit perceived that the domain was on the brink of destruction, it would exercise its authority to detonate the entire domain.

Such a detonation would unleash a cataclysmic surge of force that would engulf everything within its vicinity. The explosive power would be so overwhelming that even advanced laws such as those governing space or time would be rendered impotent in the face of it.

The task of compelling the Divine Spirit of the Silver Devil Asura Dominion to such drastic measures would demand the combined strength of multiple Immortal Realm experts. This very reason underscored why the Heavenly Court never embarked on a mission to obliterate the Silver Devil Asura Dominion entirely. They were reluctant to put their Immortal Realm experts at risk of losing their lives.
