Villain: Manipulating the Heroines into hating the Protagonist

The shocking news of the devils breaching the Empire’s barrier through the Second Princess’s faction side took an entire day to reach both the Crown Prince’s and Emperor’s factions.

During this critical time lapse, the devil forces cleverly dispersed upon entering the Empire.

These devil clans divided themselves into numerous groups, each under the leadership of a powerful clan member. 𝗼𝐯𝗹．𝐞𝘁

They scattered throughout the Empire’s territories, a strategic move orchestrated by Wang Jian himself.

His plan aimed to unleash the Blue Moon Eclipse Devil Clan, the Oceanic Tempest Storm Devil Clan, the Nether Curseweaver Devil Clan, and countless lesser demons into the lives of ordinary humans, sowing chaos and fear.

As news of the devils’ dispersal reached the Emperor and the Crown Prince, they found themselves stunned by this unexpected turn of events.

The devils’ decision to fragment after infiltrating the Empire had caught them off guard.

Now, the task of dealing with these scattered forces became significantly more complicated.

The devils’ division meant that tracking and confronting them required more resources and coordination.

First, their locations had to be pinpointed, and then skilled experts needed to be dispatched to handle the situation.

Even with the added support from the Golden Sun Empire’s experts, the challenge had escalated into a complex and troublesome affair, threatening the Empire’s stability.

Despite the daunting challenge of eliminating the demons within the Empire, both the Emperor’s and the Crown Prince’s factions wasted no time in springing into action.

While news of the Second Princess’s disappearance did circulate, the urgency of dealing with the demon threat took precedence. The factions understood that diverting resources to search for her wasn’t feasible at this critical juncture; the primary focus was eradicating the demon presence within the Empire’s borders.

Both the Crown Prince’s and the Emperor’s factions mobilized into numerous groups, each tasked with locating and eliminating the dispersed demon forces. As the factions scattered to tackle this formidable task, the Crown Prince and the Emperor themselves were protected by small, elite groups led by formidable Emperor Realm expert.

Beside the Crown Prince stood the Emperor Realm expert from the esteemed Heavenly Blade Sect, a vigilant guardian in these dire times.

Meanwhile, the Emperor himself was shielded by the resolute captain of the Royal Guards, an Emperor Realm expert renowned for his unwavering dedication to the Emperor’s safety.

Under Wang Jian’s strategic guidance, the devil factions meticulously avoided any direct confrontations with the Crown Prince and the Emperor.

Instead, they focused their efforts on sowing fear and chaos among the common people, allowing the terror of the demons to embed itself deeply within their psyche.

Time flew by like a fleeting moment, and a week swiftly slipped away.

Among the devil clans, the Oceanic Tempest Storm Devil Clan suffered the most significant losses.

This was in stark contrast to the Nether Curseweaver Devil Clan and the Blue Moon Eclipse Devil Clan, who diligently followed Wang Jian’s commands.

Through his timely directives to Zyrithia, these clans managed to evade danger on numerous occasions.

Despite the dispersion of the demon forces, they maintained a coordinated effort through effective communication. This was achieved with the aid of a bat-like creature that specialized in relaying messages.

The bat-like creature possessed the unique ability to memorize the aura signature of an individual and employ its heightened senses to locate them.

In this way, information was seamlessly exchanged among the demon factions, facilitated by this extraordinary messenger devil beast.

Over the course of the past week, numerous significant events unfolded. Su Xian and Bixi Shuyan’s groups successfully reached the location where Wang Jian’s faction was stationed.

Wang Jian had a chance to reunite with Su Xian and Bixi Shuyan, and during this time, he shared with Su Xian all that had transpired in her absence.

While he omitted the intricate details of his relationships with the Empress and the Second Queen, he did disclose that both of them had thrown their support behind his faction.

Additionally, he informed Su Xian of Wang Ying’s captivity in the dungeon.

In return, Su Xian shared the remarkable news of how her own group, along with Bixi Shuyan’s, had garnered considerable recognition and admiration from the general populace within the Empire.

Wang Jian expressed his delight at her achievements and praised her efforts.

Amidst spending time with his wives, another significant event unfolded for Wang Jian during this week: an upgrade to the system.

This enhancement brought about considerable excitement, as it granted Wang Jian the ability to accumulate Destiny Points not only from protagonists or individuals with extraordinary luck but also from regular people.

To harness these Destiny Points, Wang Jian needed to elicit intense emotions from people, be it love or hatred towards him.

As the upgraded system came into effect, Wang Jian found himself inundated with notifications – hundreds, if not thousands of them – from his loyal subordinates.

These notifications ranged from expressions of immense respect to those tinged with fear.

The ones who provided him generous number of Destiny Points through fear were particularly individuals like the Second Queen Luo Qiu, the Empress, Zyrithia, Wang Ying, and so on.

In a mere instant, it seemed as though Wang Jian’s Destiny Points had surged by nearly a million – a substantial and significant increase. Notably, Wang Jian observed a noteworthy distinction in the points he earned through respect versus those obtained through fear. While the points amassed from respect were comparatively lesser, they appeared to accumulate on a daily basis, contingent upon the continued respect an individual held for him.

On the other hand, the points accrued from fear were substantially greater, but they were only acquired once the terror felt by the individuals reached a particular intensity threshold.

This indicated that, in practice, Wang Jian was likely to gather more Destiny Points through respect.

Contemplating this, Wang Jian found himself engrossed in thought about the optimal approach to leverage this newfound ability.

He mused on the possibility of cultivating widespread respect from the Empire’s entire population, envisioning the potentially staggering volume of points he could amass.

As the week unfolded, another event of profound significance reverberated through the Everlasting Mystical Empire. The pivotal occurrence involved the arrival of experts from the Golden Sun Empire.

Leading this distinguished group was none other than Augustus Valerius, the younger brother of the reigning monarch of the illustrious Golden Sun Empire. With a name that resonated with power, Augustus stepped to the forefront of this exceptional assembly.

Upon his arrival in the foreign lands of the Everlasting Mystical Empire, Augustus swiftly acquainted himself with Emperor Wang and immersed himself in comprehending the intricate web of circumstances that enshrouded this realm.

The unit that Augustus had brought from the Golden Sun Empire possessed an unparalleled expertise in combating demons. This prowess was rooted in the ancient bloodline of the Royal Family, tracing its origins to the legendary Three-Legged Golden Crow. It was said that the incendiary flames of this mythical avian ancestor coursed through the veins of the Royal Family, a legacy Augustus himself bore.

The embodiment of this ancestral flame, Augustus wielded the scorching power of the Golden Crow’s flames. This formidable ability endowed him with the capability to effortlessly confront and conquer the devil forces that had infiltrated the Empire.

In a swift and decisive move, Augustus’s group embarked on the task of cleansing the Empire of its insidious demon infestation. The Oceanic Tempest Storm Devil Clan and the regular demons bore the brunt of this fervent purge, sustaining substantial losses in the process. Even the formidable Blue Moon Eclipse Devil Clan and the enigmatic Nether Curseweaver Devil Clan were not immune to the damage inflicted by Augustus’s relentless pursuit.

While the grand battle of divine flames and devilish forces raged on, Wang Jian was not content to remain idle. His determination to seize control of the Empire burned hotter than ever.

His eyes were set on a momentous target: his own father, Emperor Wang. Wang Jian was resolute in his belief that by eliminating his father, he could pave the way for his own dominion over the Empire. The prospect of his reign being solidified through regicide was a calculated gamble, one he was willing to take.

However, Wang Jian recognized that the key to his success lay in careful timing. His initial focus was on Emperor Wang, believing that once his father was eliminated, the populace would be more inclined to accept his rule. Crown Prince Wang Hao was a lesser threat in Wang Jian’s eyes, who would be slated for a similar fate but only after Emperor Wang’s demise.

With unwavering determination, Wang Jian united his forces—himself, the formidable Yue Yanling, and the venerable Grand Elder Yi. Together, they set forth from their current location, embarking on a journey towards the heart of the Empire, where Emperor Wang resided.

Emperor Wang, amidst the chaos of the capital’s defense, had withdrawn to the sanctum of his palace. Here, he commanded his loyal subjects to drive out the remnants of the devil forces that had plagued the capital.

Yet, the Emperor’s normally fortified stronghold was vulnerable, his guardians spread thin across the city. He remained under the watchful protection of a solitary expert.

Suddenly, as if emerging from the very fabric of space itself, Wang Jian, Yue Yanling, and Grand Elder Yi materialized in the throne room. Their entry, a product of Wang Jian’s mastery over the intricate Laws of Space, was a jolt of unanticipated intrusion.
