"Do we have to do this young master?" A girl with silver hair asked the black haired boy in front of her
"Well, think about his reaction once he realized that he is nothing but a clown" The black haired boy replied
Hearing the boy's response, the silver haired girl seemed to think about something for a couple of seconds, and she finally opened her mouth "Alright Young master, Gamma will follow the young master's plan"
Gu Chen smiled hearing Gamma's response, as he imagined the scene he was about to witness
-------
Time moves forward and both Gamma and Ye Ling was sitting inside the carriage, heading towards a neighboring city. When suddenly, Gu Chen heard a notification inside his mind
Ding*
[Chain Quest 1 (Ye Ling) - Completed]
Ignoring the notification, Gu Chen thought to himself 'Ahh, I see how it is. Ye Ling would have met my cousin Li Jia when he returned to Fenghua city to buy himself medicines, then both of them will somehow recognized each other and Ye Ling would get a powerful and beautiful companion'
Nodding his head as if he had understood the notification completely, Gu Chen then looked at 'Feng Jia' and Ye Ling sitting happily in front of him
However, Ye Ling could not see Gu Chen as the whole situation he is in was nothing but an illusion casted by Gu Chen's primordial immortal eyes
It could be seen how powerful those eyes are, even a reincarnated immortal expert was not able to see through the illusion technique
Gu Chen then spoke to the system 'Show me the second quest'
Ding*
[Chain Quest 2 (Ye Ling): In his journey back to Fenghua city to purchase medicines, Ye Ling encountered a Young lady Called Feng Jia, and saved her from attacking bandits. However, Feng Jia was not an ordinary girl but a peak venerable realm expert who disguised herself so that Ye Ling let his guard down.
On their way back to the hometown of Feng Jia, Ye Ling was happily talking with Feng Jia went another group of bandits showed up. However, the bandits were a lot stronger than the one who came after Feng Jia's carriage before. Every single bandit was in the soul formation realm, Ye Ling alongside the guards were unable to fight against the bandits and the situation was very dire.
However, just as all hope was lost, a senior disciple of the celestial immortal sect save them.
Mission: Stop Li Jia from saving Ye Ling
Reward: Saint Realm Puppet 2x
Punishment upon failure: None]
'What the hell is this system?; How is this possible?' Gu Chen asked the system as he was really confused at this moment. Even the bandits were a part of Gu Chen's plan, as the bandits are bought by Gu Chen from the system
Ding*
[Back to the host, Heaven noticed that the protagonist Ye Ling is in danger and brought a helper to save his life]
'But if I decided to stop the bandits from attacking, won't the mission be completed?'
[Back to the host, the Heaven will is something that the current host can't change. If the host stop the bandits from attacking, a beast powerful enough to eliminate Ye Ling and the guards will attack the carriage and Li Jia will come to save them]
'...' Gu Chen listened to the system explanation and he seemed to realize something
'So the current me can't defy Heaven's will, does that mean that the future me would be able to?' Gu Chen then asked the system
[The current host does not have the authority to get the answer]
'Then how can I increase my authority?'
[There are two ways for the host to increase his authority. Firstly, authority will passively increase as long as the host's strength increase. Second, authority will increase by quite a big margin every time the host kill a son/daughter of luck]
'....' Hearing the system's words, Gu Chen fell into a deep thought and after a moment of silence, he opened his mouth once again
'Then should I just kill Ye Ling?'
[The answer depends on the host. Since Ye Ling does not consider the host a villain, the host would not be affected by his growth in strength. However, if the host let Ye Ling live repeatedly, he will one day surpass the host's strength due to the Heaven's favor. On the contrary, if the host kill Ye Ling or any other protagonists, the system will stop issuing mission for that protagonist]
Listening to the system's explanation, Gu Chen let out a dry smile as if he had decided what he will do
'I guess your time has come' Gu Chen smiled sadistically as he sent a telepathic message to Gamma, informing his decision
-------------------
Throughout their journey back to Moon city, the original city where 'Feng Jia' came from, Ye Ling kept on talking and flirting with Feng Jia; which the later will simply just nod and smile
It could be seen that Gamma was trying her hardest to maintain a poker face because she was really disgusted by Ye Ling. However, keeping her promise with her young master, Gamma held herself back and played her part perfectly
A couple of hours passed by when the screaming of the guard outside the carriage could be heard "WE GOT INVADERS"
Hearing the words of the guard, Ye Ling walked out of the carriage to confront the invaders. As soon as he exited the carriage, he saw 15 men surrounding the carriage, and he noticed that all the 15 men were soul formation experts
"WHAT DO YOU WANT!" the guard captain yelled to intimidate the bandits
"HEHEHEHE, did you think that you will be safe when you killed our comrades?" One of the bandits replied
"Don't bother talking with them, those bastards all deserve to die anyway!!" Ye Ling yelled as he rushed towards one of the bandit
It could be seen how courageous and stupid a protagonist is, charging to a person several time stronger than him without any hesitation
However, Ye Ling's delusion of playing the hero was immediately destroyed, as the bandit side stepped easily dodging Ye Ling's sword attack and kicked him in the guts which sent Ye Ling crashing a tree
'BAM'
The impact of the kick was very strong, Ye Ling once again broke a couple of ribs and growled in pain as he held his ribs "SHIT!!"
The bandit didn't let Ye Ling recover as he immediately dashed towards Ye Ling and launched a roundhouse kick to Ye Ling's head
'Bang'
Ye Ling was once again sent flying as he could not dodge the attack of the bandit, and he was deeply hurt as blood gushed out from his nose and mouth
"HAHAHAHAH, is this all you can do?" The bandit laughed as he walked closely to Ye Ling
"Don- Don't come closer" Ye Ling said in fear as he formed many sword liked aura and launched it at the bandit
"Insignificant tricks" The bandit dodged all of the incoming attack as he approached Ye Ling and lifted Ye Ling by the neck and repeatedly smashed his head to the ground
'BAM BAM BAM'
Ye Ling bit his tongue to stay conscious as his consciousness was fading every time his head was slammed to the
The other bandits were also not idle as they attacked the guards with all of their might, and as the difference of strength was pretty huge, the guards were defeated immediately
Some were killed, while some were tortured to death
Seeing that his acquaintance were killed, Ye Ling was furious and he use his blood essence to break through once again "AHHHHHH"

Sorry for the delay
The end of a protagonist is near :)
Do you think this is fair for Ye ling (Considering he is the third protagonist but the first one to die)
