FYN Chapter 2: What the heck is Bian Bufu's rebirth?
Chapter 2: What the heck is Bian Bufu's rebirth?
"So that's how it is..."
In the empty reception room, Guan Shengbai, who had been infused with the memories of his predecessor, also gained a full understanding of his current background and situation.
It wasn't a dream, nor a hallucination; it was a real experience of time travel and rebirth.
"Is there really such a relationship between him and Yang Mi?"
Guan Shengbai murmured.
The relationship between the predecessor and Yang Mi is not complicated.
It's nothing more than a classic, clichéd hero-saves-the-damsel-in-distress story, followed by a tale of unrequited love and pursuit on a university campus.
Yes, Guan Shengbai is the one being pursued.
But none of these are the most important things, because something even more absurd is right in front of him.
His gaze returned to the panel in front of him.
[Congratulations, Mr. Bian Bufu, whose crimes are utterly heinous! You have been given a second chance at life!]
[Host, Bian Bufu, in your past life you were a powerful figure in the demonic path, a senior member of the prestigious Yin Gui Sect, yet you were poisoned and framed by a mere demoness within the sect, and then ambushed and killed by an unknown young man. In this life, you vow never to repeat your mistakes, but to win everything!!!]
Guan Shengbai has already begun to accept that his career and wealth from his previous life have vanished, and that he has now traveled back to 2012 to live in the body of a handsome young man with the same name as him.
But isn't this [Demon Cultivator System] in the wrong movie?
Given my current start, shouldn't I create some kind of "Superstar System"?
And what the heck is this "reborn Bian Bufu" thing?
However, given Guan Shengbai's comprehension ability, he quickly understood the whole story after a little thought.
In short, compared to Guan Shengbai's successful time travel, Tongzi Ge clearly traveled to the wrong movie set, even mistaking him for the reincarnation of Bian Bufu, the lecherous thief from "Twin Dragons of the Tang Dynasty".
Furthermore, the entire system began to operate in an almost bizarre manner, forcibly identifying this world as a complex of martial arts worlds.
But this doesn't mean that Brother Tong is completely useless...
Guan Shengbai looked at the only "loadable" destiny on his panel, which belonged exclusively to "Bian Bufu".
【Destiny】: Maiden Recycled Furnace
[Level]: ★★★☆☆
[Type]: Nourishment Type, Eye Technique
"The Yin Gui Secret Technique uses lust as its weapon. This technique does not seek to kill enemies, but to capture their hearts."
——Core Eye Technique——
【Girl's Eyes】
Effect: By staring at the other person for more than three breaths, one can observe their "color".
Those who are in a peach-red mood may be tempted; one can take advantage of their vulnerability.
Those who are pure and single-minded need to proceed slowly and steadily.
Those in gray and blue already have someone they're committed to, and it's hard to change their minds.
*By forcefully activating the power of the pupils, one can also vaguely perceive the emotional flaws of those with gray-blue complexions.*
—Characteristics of Destiny—
【Entwined by Love】
Gazing at the peach-pink color for five breaths will plant an invisible thread of affection in one's heart, which will last for approximately seven days.
If you take the initiative to get closer to them, the favorability rating will double.
If nothing is done within seven days, the ties of affection will naturally sever.
[Subtle Desires]
With the enhancement of eye power, one can sense the other party's strongest current desire.
───Defects in Destiny───
Lust can cloud judgment.
Each time the Maiden's Eye is used, one's rational judgment decreases slightly (by about half a percent).
Using it more than three times a day in a row can easily lead to being consumed by lust and making absurd decisions.
[Collapses upon encountering truth]
If the other party harbors sincere and genuine love, the success rate of the relationship is halved, and there is a risk of being betrayed.
Once the backlash occurs, one's fortune will be halved within three days, and a slight mishap could lead to bloodshed.
......
emmmm.......
What kind of "Girl's Refining Furnace" destiny is this? Isn't this just the core build for the blond guy in Liu Bei's story?
However, if it is as accurate as described on the panel, it undoubtedly falls into the category of "superpowers".
Moreover, it is obvious that this "Demon Lord of the Path" system has far more than just the Fate section; it also has unlocked sections for Divine Powers and Cultivation Techniques.
The basis for this is that the main quest given by the system mentions the existence of supernatural powers and cultivation techniques.
Main Quest: The Young Phoenix's Cry Surpasses the Old Phoenix's
In your previous life, you lived a solitary life, earning the title "Hidden Demon," and ultimately met a tragic end, dying without a proper burial and remaining unknown to the world.
In this life, you are destined to become a demon ancestor, so you must establish your own sect.
To establish a sect, one needs not only extraordinary strength but also a great reputation!
And the first thing you need to do is make your voice heard in the martial arts world!
Requirements: Your legend begins to circulate in the martial arts world, reaching the level of "Rising Star in the Martial Arts World".
Reward for Completion: Based on the completion rate of the mission, you will receive a mysterious supernatural ability/technique.
Undoubtedly, this completely piqued Guan Shengbai's interest, and he continued to operate on the panel. Soon, the new page changed.
—Bonds—
Upon reuniting with your senior sister Zhu Yuyan, you are filled with a complex mix of love and hate. You fear her authority yet resent her domineering nature and the way she treats you like a dog. Thus, your twisted and perverse love...
stop stop stop!
Guan Shengbai rubbed his temples, feeling a bit of a headache, and muttered to himself.
"Speak like a normal person, stop rambling on and on with nonsense."
This was the result of his recent experiment: the system in front of him had some interactive capabilities, but it also had a strange sense of familiarity...
Okay, I understand completely now. I will now explain it to you precisely, incisively, and in one sentence.
I'll give you the most complete and accurate answer, without being verbose or rambling. If it can be explained in one sentence, I won't use a second...
"How did we end up back in 2012, and being chased and killed by a stupid AI...?"
However, after some adjustments, Guan Shengbai finally understood what this "Zhu Yuyan" was all about.
Because at this moment, Yang Mi's photo was prominently displayed on Zhu Yuyan's "bond card".
Name: Zhu Yuyan (Yang Mi)
Destiny: The Mysterious Appearance of the Heavenly Demon
Relationship: Senior Sister
Favorability: 50%
Strategy level: 15%
Reunited with your senior, you decide:
① Kill on the spot and steal the treasure!
② He submitted himself to the tiger in order to seize an opportunity!
③ Chisel!
"So you're just going to put anything into that mold, huh...?"
But you know what, Zhu Yuyan is Bian Bufu's senior, and Yang Mi is also my senior at the Beijing Film Academy. It seems absurd, but it also seems to make sense...
Just as Guan Shengbai was pondering this, the production crew member who had gone to inform him earlier returned.
"Teacher Guan, Director Guo and Ms. Chai are waiting for you in the conference room."
The production assistant spoke calmly, but her eyes, which seemed to be glued to Guan Shengbai, betrayed her excitement and amazement.
There's no way around it. With Guan Shengbai's current looks and temperament, coupled with his "Girl's Rotating Furnace" destiny, even if Wangcai from next door were to pass by, he would be completely captivated for two seconds.
Guan Shengbai, whose thoughts were interrupted, was startled when he looked at the production assistant who was practically clinging to him.
He took a small, unnoticed step.
"Thank you. Which way is the meeting room?"
"what?"
The young woman, as if waking from a dream, blushed instantly.
"Um... here, here!"
As she spoke, the young woman took two quick steps as if fleeing, then suddenly stopped and looked at Guan Shengbai.
"I...I'll take you there!"
Guan Shengbai simply smiled and nodded, as if he hadn't noticed the other person's predicament, and followed.
Are they Guo Xiaosi and Chai Zhiping?
Wow, this looks like quite a big operation.
To be honest, Xi Cheng's role isn't very big; he should be ranked as the fifth or even sixth male lead in the movie.
Logically, with Yang Mi's strong recommendation, this role should have been a sure thing.
But unexpectedly, the seemingly simple "meeting" also attracted producer Chai Zhiping, in addition to director Guo Xiaosi.
Could it be that something has changed again?
interesting.
