Villain: Manipulating the Heroines into hating the Protagonist

As Wang Jian and Yu Qing soared through the cosmic expanse, their destination became the Crimson Star Settlement. Their plan was to utilize the Teleportation Portal there, a gateway to other cities, and ultimately reach the star belonging to the Lin Family. After a ten-day journey, they finally set foot on the star controlled by the Lin Family.

This particular star wasn't directly governed by the Lin Family's main branch but was instead under the influence of one of its powerful branch families. The Lin Family had extended its reach to encompass not just individual stars but entire star systems, ruling over vast territories.

As Wang Jian and Yu Qing explored this star, they decided to gather information about the Lin Family's intricate web of power. With each step they took, they engaged in conversations with the locals, delving into the history, policies, and the lives of the Lin Family members.

In one quaint tavern on this star owned by the Lin Family, a weathered old man spoke, "Ah, the Lin Family is rulers of these parts! Their main star is a sight to behold, with four massive stars under their control. Legends say they conquered those stars, and now, they serve as the linchpin of Lin Family's power."

Wang Jian, feigning casual interest, asked, "Conquered stars, you say? Tell us more about these four mighty stars."

The old man, eager to share his knowledge, continued, "Aye, there's the Glittering Ember Star, the Shimmering Frost Star, the Luminous Gale Star, and the Thundering Abyss Star. Each one a jewel in the Lin Family's crown. The Main Family resides on the Glittering Ember Star, while the branch families govern the rest. It's a hierarchical system, you see."

Yu Qing, intrigued, chimed in, "What about the planets, moons, and other celestial bodies around these stars? Are they all under the Lin Family's control?"

The old man nodded sagely. "Indeed, my dear. The Lin Family holds dominion over everything in their cosmic realm. Planets, moons, and all manners of celestial bodies dance to their tune."

Wang Jian, absorbing this information, turned to Yu Qing with a thoughtful expression. "We need to learn more about their leadership, policies, and key figures. Let's continue our exploration."

As they roamed through settlements and cities, Wang Jian gathered tidbits about the Lin Family's patriarch, known as Lin Zhiqiu, a shrewd and strategic leader. The taverns buzzed with talk about the family's policies, especially their stance against rival ancient families.

In another lively inn, a gossipy local shared, "Lin Zhiqiu, the patriarch, has a keen eye for talent. The Lin Family policies prioritize nurturing the young generation, and they've been making waves. News is that a member of their young generation is on the cusp of breathing through to the Divine Tribulation Realm. They are very talented and far ahead compared to the likes of heirs of other Ancient Families."

Wang Jian, pleased with this valuable intel, exchanged glances with Yu Qing. "It seems like the Lin Family has quite the focus on their rising stars. We'll have to keep an eye on these young talents."

As they continued their fact-finding mission, the duo discovered crucial names and potential contacts within the Lin Family.

As Wang Jian delved into the gathered information about the Lin Family, he couldn't help but organize the details in his mind, forming a comprehensive understanding of their internal dynamics.

'The Lin Family's current patriarch is Lin Zhiqui, Lin Fei's uncle,' Wang Jian thought to himself, absorbing the intricacies. 'And just two years ago, Lin Zhanguan, Lin Fei's father and the previous patriarch, went missing rather mysteriously, leaving Lin Zhiqui to assume control. This shift in power led to a series of unfortunate events for Lin Fei.'

With a contemplative expression, Wang Jian continued his internal musings.

'Lin Zhiqui wasted no time in sidelining Lin Fei. Stripped of the title of Young Patriarch, it was handed to Lin Zhiqui's own son, Lin Ming. Lin Fei faced scorn and torment at the hands of Lin Ming and his cronies. And a year ago, the final blow – exile from his own family.'

Wang Jian, chuckling to himself, added a mental commentary. 'Classic plotline for a protagonist, isn't it? A hero's fall from grace, orchestrated by cunning relatives. It's almost idiotic.'

He considered the complexities of the Lin Family politics, pondering the key players and alliances.

'In such a scenario, it's no surprise that there are those within the Lin Family who support Lin Fei. The most significant figures are his adoptive sister, Lin Xingya, and some loyal guards of his father. '

The thought of Lin Xingya, Lin Fei's adoptive sister, caused Wang Jian to think a bit more deeply about her.

'Lin Xingya has rather mysterious origins. She has been adopted by Lin Zhanguan, yet her birth parents remain a mystery. It's clearly the destiny weaving its threads again.'

He continued to gather information on Lin Xingya's role in the Lin Family. 'Lin Zhiqui plans to use Lin Xingya in a political marriage with Jiang Chen of the Jiang Family. Strategic alliances and political maneuvering – the age-old dance of noble families.'

As Wang Jian ruminated on the unfolding drama, he couldn't resist adding a dash of mockery to his thoughts. 'A political marriage for Lin Xingya? How cliché. Lin Fei, the exiled protagonist, will surely return to disrupt their carefully laid plans.'

With a sly grin forming on his face, Wang Jian thought audaciously, 'Well, Lin Xingya, you're the key to Lin Fei's heart and to whatever treasures he might have. Time to play my cards right and make the most of this convoluted destiny.'

Wang Jian and Yu Qing settled into life on the star governed by the Lin Family's Branch Family. The vibrant surroundings held the energy of familial bonds, and the complex interplay of relationships unfolded around them.

Wang Jian, having fused a small world with his Divine Soul, wielded a unique influence. The laws of cultivation were at his fingertips, and his proficiency in various cosmic laws allowed him to subtly manipulate the world in his favor.lightsnovel

In the heart of the inn complex, Wang Jian strategized. He knew that joining the Lin Family's Branch Family would grant him the convenience he sought, enabling him to navigate the family's territories without suspicion.

With a sly glint in his eyes, Wang Jian approached one of the elders of the Lin Family's Branch Family, employing his cunning tactics to sway them to his side.

The elder, initially looking down on Wang Jian as an outsider, couldn't help but be captivated by his extraordinary abilities.

'Display just enough, keep the rest hidden,' Wang Jian thought to himself as he showcased his deep insights into the Lightning Element.

The elder, an expert in cultivation, was both astonished and intrigued by the precision and mastery Wang Jian demonstrated.

"Your insights into the Lightning Element are truly exceptional," the elder praised, a glint of excitement in his eyes. "Joining forces with someone of your caliber would undoubtedly elevate the Lin Family's Branch Family."

With a hint of modesty, Wang Jian downplayed his capabilities. "I am humbled by your words, esteemed elder. I only wish to contribute what I can to the Lin Family's Branch Family."

The elder, however, was persistent. "Your talents should not be wasted. We need someone like you to bolster our strength. Join us, and together, we shall thrive."

As Wang Jian displayed a fraction of his potential, the onlookers were left in awe. Though he didn't flaunt his abilities, the elder, with years of experience, sensed the profound depth of Wang Jian's insights.

'Enlightened State,' the elder marveled inwardly. 'He can manipulate the laws of the world to a minute degree. What a valuable asset he would be to the Lin Family's Branch Family.'

Wang Jian, with a humble smile, agreed to join the Lin Family's Branch Family. In truth, it was a strategic move to facilitate his stay within the family's territory.

Inside the Lin Family's Branch Family complex, Wang Jian and Yu Qing mingled with the members, effortlessly integrating into their daily lives. The vibrant atmosphere of familial connections surrounded them, concealing the subtle moves and strategic plans that Wang Jian harbored.

As the days unfolded, Wang Jian utilized the resources he had acquired from his exploits at the Sanguine Star Academy. The stolen treasures and artifacts served as catalysts for his cultivation, amplifying the unique nature of his physique.

'Automatic cultivation is truly a blessing,' Wang Jian thought, marveling at the efficiency of his innate abilities. He absorbed and filtered spiritual energy and divine energy effortlessly, all without the need for conventional cultivation techniques. It was as if his body instinctively knew how to optimize the benefits of the resources at his disposal.

Yu Qing, observing his cultivation, couldn't help but express her admiration. "Your cultivation speed is incredible despite possessing no cultivation technique, Wang Jian. It must be because of you absorbing the world in your Divine Soul."

Wang Jian grinned, his eyes reflecting a profound understanding, "Yep! It's as if my Divine Soul knows instinctively just what I need to do."

In his secluded practice area within the Lin Family's Branch Family complex, Wang Jian harnessed the stolen treasures to elevate his cultivation. With each passing day, the Divine Origin Realm was but a stepping stone for him.

His power surged, reaching unprecedented heights as he ascended from the Third Stage to the Ninth Stage of the Divine Origin Realm.

As Wang Jian reached the pinnacle of the Divine Origin Realm, he pondered the next steps.

In the bustling environment of the Lin Family's Branch Family complex, Wang Jian continued his subtle interactions with various family members, earning their trust and weaving intricate connections.

One day, while chatting with a few members of the Lin Family, Wang Jian overheard a hushed conversation about Lin Xingya's venture to a forbidden star. The star, known as the Forbidden Celestial Abyss, was notorious for being ruled by desolate beasts and ancient creatures. It held a mysterious allure, but entering it was no easy feat.

Lin Xingya's mission on the Forbidden Celestial Abyss was clear – she sought two of the seven crucial herbs required for concocting a rare pellet. This pellet was renowned for its ability to significantly enhance an individual's potential, spiritual energy, divine energy, and overall cultivation.

Wang Jian couldn't help but be intrigued by this information. The prospect of acquiring such a potent concoction sparked his interest. However, there was a catch – the Forbidden Celestial Abyss had a formidable ancient barrier. Only individuals with a cultivation level below the Divine Spirit Realm could enter, effectively barring Yu Qing from accompanying him.

The Forbidden Celestial Abyss held a reputation for its treacherous environment and the ruthless creatures that inhabited it. Yet, the allure of the rare herbs and the potential treasures on the forbidden star fascinated Wang Jian.

He contemplated the situation, weighing the risks and rewards.

With a determined glint in his eyes, Wang Jian decided to embark on this perilous journey alone.
