1: Chapter 1 Junior Sister, you believe your senior brother, it's really just to save you.

The soul lingers while winds and clouds stir; deposit your brain here!

...

Primordial Holy Land.

Inside a sleeping palace.

On the Cold Jade Bed in the center, a peerless beauty had her eyes tightly shut, frost condensing on her eyelashes.

She was dressed in a thin white dress, her delicate body trembling incessantly. Beneath her skin, streaks of greenish-black cold energy were circulating.

At this moment, the Lunar Cold Poison within Su Ningyu's body was breaking out in full force.

The Supreme Yin Cold Body, a supreme constitution seen once in a millennium, was also a death warrant seen once in a millennium.

Once it broke out, the cold energy would attack the heart, making it difficult for even gods to save her.

Right now, her consciousness was fading, and she murmured unconsciously, "Cold... so cold..."

Jiang Han, dressed in a moon-white Holy Son robe, stood before the bed with his hands behind his back.

His expression was compassionate, as if he were truly heart-stricken for Su Ningyu.

"Sigh."

A soft sigh.

Jiang Han leaned down, his fingertips lightly touching Su Ningyu's forehead.

"Junior Sister, don't be afraid."

"The cold poison is attacking your heart. If this drags on any longer, even your soul will be frozen."

In her blurred state, Su Ningyu seemed to hear Jiang Han's voice. Using the last of her strength, she grabbed Jiang Han's sleeve.

"Senior Brother... save me..."

"Of course Senior Brother will save you."

Jiang Han's voice grew increasingly gentle. He slowly sat on the edge of the bed and pulled the shivering Su Ningyu halfway into his arms.

He lowered his head, his lips moving close to her ear.

"Senior Brother is doing this to save you, you must remember that."

Before his voice could fade, he no longer hesitated.

Jiang Han lowered his head and blocked those lips that had already lost their color.

Su Ningyu's delicate body stiffened.

A surge of scorching breath poured into her mouth, following her meridians and rushing toward her limbs and bones.

Her consciousness cleared for a moment. Looking at Jiang Han right in front of her, she wanted to struggle, wanted to push him away, but she could not move a muscle.

She could only let Jiang Han have his way, and soon her consciousness sank back into chaos.

Just then, a mechanical voice suddenly emerged in Jiang Han's mind.

[Ding!]

[Detected that the Host is plundering the Destiny Heroine, Su Ningyu. This aligns with villainous behavior!]

[Great Villain System activating and binding!]

[Distributing rewards...]

[Congratulations to the Host for obtaining: Chaos Physique!]

As the system's voice faded, a mighty power exploded from deep within Jiang Han's body!

Every inch of his bone, every meridian, and every drop of blood was reshaped and recreated at this moment.

His already extraordinary constitution changed once more, transforming toward the legendary supreme constitution that was unique throughout the ages.

At the same time, Jiang Han was stunned.

A system?

Had his system finally arrived?

Soon, he also roughly understood.

It turned out this reward mechanism was so simple: as long as he was bad enough, as long as his behavior was villainous enough, he could get rewards.

Then what was there to hesitate about?

He tightened his hold on the delicate body in his arms that had gradually stopped struggling.

...

A night of absurdity.

On the Cold Jade Bed, Su Ningyu's eyelashes fluttered slightly, and she slowly opened her eyes.

She moved her fingers, and a feeling of soreness and weakness spread from all over her body.

Her consciousness returned.

The memories of last night surfaced in her mind, causing her face, which had regained its color, to turn pale once again.

She abruptly sat up. The brocade quilt slid down, revealing a large expanse of snowy-white skin and several red marks.

She saw Jiang Han sitting cross-legged beside her.

His clothes were disheveled, and his face also appeared pale.

"Senior Brother..."

Su Ningyu's voice trembled.

She thought of suicide, thought of fighting him to the death, and thought of announcing this scandalous affair to the whole world!

However, just as she was about to get up, Jiang Han acted first.

*Pfft!*

Jiang Han suddenly opened his eyes, his body swayed, and a mouthful of blood sprayed out.

His aura instantly became withered and weak.

Of course, this was all an act.

"Senior Brother!"

Su Ningyu cried out in surprise. She wanted to step forward to support him, but her body froze in place.

Jiang Han waved his hand and wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth with his sleeve.

He looked at Su Ningyu, his eyes now filled with a bit of complexity and exhaustion.

"Junior Sister, you're awake."

"The Lunar Cold Poison... has already been cured."

Su Ningyu's lips trembled, unable to say a single word.

Cured?

It was cured.

Cured using her most precious purity.

"Senior Brother... you... why did you do this..."

Tears fell uncontrollably from her eyes.

Jiang Han turned around, his back to her.

"If it weren't for the absolute necessity, how could I have resorted to such an inferior tactic?"

He paused, his tone heavy.

"Whatever you think of me, I will bear it all alone."

"But this matter is known only to heaven, earth, you, and me. I will not mention it to a third person."

These words were spoken with true sincerity, every word and sentence striking Su Ningyu's heart.

She had originally wanted to kill Jiang Han and then end her own life.

But looking at this Holy Son Senior Brother before her, who had "suffered great damage to his vital energy" to save her and was even considering her reputation at every turn...

The killing intent in her heart could no longer be maintained.

Su Ningyu could bear it no longer and began to cry loudly.

Just then.

*Bang! Bang! Bang!*

An extremely anxious shout came from outside the palace doors.

"Senior Sister! Are you in there? Open the door!"

It was Ye Yan's voice.

Su Ningyu's crying stopped abruptly, and she looked at Jiang Han in a panic.

There was not a single ripple on Jiang Han's face.

He quickly straightened his clothes and brushed away the wrinkles.

In an instant, he returned to his image as the high-and-mighty Holy Son.

Seeing that there was no response for a long time, Ye Yan outside reached out to open the palace doors.

At this time, Jiang Han also withdrew the restrictions.

A figure covered in blood with an unstable aura stumbled in.

It was precisely Ye Yan, who had gone through a narrow escape to find the antidote for Su Ningyu.

Ye Yan held a broken sword in his left hand and tightly gripped a spirit herb in his right. The herb was entirely crimson and burning with a faint flame—it was the nine-yang soul-returning herb.

He had experienced a narrow escape from death to snatch the life-saving immortal medicine from the claws of a Demon King in the Valley of Ten Thousand Beasts, and he had rushed back without a moment's rest.

"Senior Sister!"

At a glance, Ye Yan saw Su Ningyu on the Cold Jade Bed, tightly wrapped in a brocade quilt with tearful eyes.

And, that eye-catching red mark on her neck.

He also saw Jiang Han standing by the bed, who, although pale, was still neatly dressed.

Ye Yan's brain went "buzz," and it instantly went blank.

The nine-yang soul-returning herb in his hand fell to the ground with a *clatter*.

"Jiang... Han... you..."

"You two..."

Ye Yan's eyes were bloodshot, the spiritual power around his body went out of control and ran wild, and his killing intent boiled over.

However, before his full fury could erupt.

A scolding voice rang out first.

"Ye Yan!"

Jiang Han stood there, looking down at him from above with a cold expression.

"I ordered you to guard this peak and protect Junior Sister Ningyu's safety, yet you abandoned your post. Where did you run off to?!"

"Because of you, Junior Sister Ningyu's cold poison attacked her heart ahead of time, and she nearly lost her life!"

"Do you realize your crime?!"

Ye Yan was completely dumbfounded.

He looked at the nine-yang soul-returning herb on the ground that he had spent all his effort to obtain, then at the righteous Jiang Han questioning him, and finally at Su Ningyu on the Cold Jade Bed, who did not dare to meet his gaze.

His mental state exploded at this moment.
