Turns Out, I’m In A Villain Clan! - Chapter 292 When System Rewards

Chapter 292 When System Rewards
(What!)
Bai Zihan’s eyes widened as he stared at the glowing line of text.
[Reward: Frost Immortal Scripture (Saint-Grade!)]
His breath nearly hitched.
A Saint-Grade Technique-he only had one, and even that was something he couldn’t use properly.
Now, he was getting one for free?
(You’ve got to be kidding me… I didn’t even do anything for this one!)
At least, that’s what he thought at first. He rubbed his temples, trying to make sense of it.
But then…
He didn’t directly defeat Nie Fengzhuo, but he had certainly influenced the result indirectly.
Nie Fengzhuo should have won against Bai Xueqing-at least in the so-called “normal” flow of fate.
That’s how it was supposed to happen. Yet reality had shattered that outcome completely.
Firstly, there was the Immortal Emperor Feilian helping Bai Xueqing.
However, in a normal story, Bai Xueqing shouldn’t have been able to push Nie Fengzhuo to that point.
Secondly, Chu Ziyan. He hadn’t thought much about it when he gave her the Earth-Grade Cultivation Technique.
But she was certainly one of the factors that led to Nie Fengzhuo’s loss.
If not for giving her that Cultivation Technique-which he had casually brought from System Store to rope in Lin Xuan-Chu Ziyan would still be cultivating with her Clan’s Technique.
With that, she wouldn’t have grown strong enough to make Nie Fengzhuo use his trump card or injure him.
Side characters like Chu Ziyan shouldn’t have been able to make such an impact, yet she did.
And then, Bai Xueqing.
Well, Bai Zihan wasn’t sure whether she had changed because of him or not. After all, she was powerful before and is now as well.
Not easy to judge, but the other factors should have been all due to him.
Still, he didn’t think it was possible to get a reward for something he didn’t do directly.
(But to give a Saint-Grade Technique as a reward… did the System suddenly become generous after seeing that I’d gone broke?)
Not to mention, it was a technique that fit Bai Xueqing perfectly. It was literally telling him to give it to her.
With that, he became a bit skeptical.
Does the System know what he is doing? Is it sentient being?
Not sure-but at least the System clearly knew about every event that happened.
(I shouldn’t be some kind of vessel for another being or anything, right? That would be f**ked up!)
Though, if such a powerful being existed, why would it even choose him?
Moreover, the System had been with him from birth.
For now, he couldn’t be sure of the answers.
Perhaps in the future.
Anyway, it was good that he didn’t need to spend his already low System Points and had the perfect technique for Bai Xueqing and her physique.
(But should I?)
Bai Zihan thought, a bit afraid of what might come from giving her such a powerful technique.
Bai Xueqing was already quite powerful. Her becoming even stronger wasn’t necessarily good for him, now was it?
(There shouldn’t be a problem!)
Well, he decided to keep it as her reward for being able to defeat Heaven’s Chosen.
Being able to defeat a Heaven’s Chosen, and that too without a System like his -he don’t know how difficult that was.
Still, despite all the odds, Bai Xueqing was able to do it, proving that fate was something that could be changed.
He, too, realized that only after witnessing it. Before, he thought that as long as he didn’t get involved, these so-called sons of Heaven would follow their
destiny.
But Bai Xueqing proved him wrong.
Moreover, if she could catch up to him all because of this Technique-even though he had a System-then it was a sign that he needed to work even
harder.
“System, claim all the rewards!”
Bai Zihan whispered under his breath.
“What are you whispering about?”
Bai Xueqing asked, seeing Bai Zihan act strangely.
“Nothing,” Bai Zihan replied casually, waving a hand as if brushing away the question.
Instead, he fixed her with a serious gaze, his usual playful tone gone.
“Listen carefully. What I’m about to give you… it’s not an ordinary technique. It’s extremely powerful. You must keep this a secret. No matter what happens, you can’t tell anyone. Not our parents, not your master. Do you understand?”
Her brows furrowed slightly.
She thought that Bai Zihan was exaggerating as usual. No matter how powerful a technique was, it shouldn’t be to the point that she couldn’t even tell her
parents.
She had even learned the “Glacial Heaven Seal-Absolute Frost Domain!” from the ancient ruin, and she didn’t think Bai Zihan could possibly have something
stronger than that.
Meanwhile, Bai Zihan knew the implications of a Saint-Grade Technique, which was essentially nonexistent in the Desolate Heaven Empire.
Or even if it did exist, it would be kept as an absolute secret.
After all, it wouldn’t just be the Li or Zhao Clans going after it-even the
Empire, perhaps even other Empires, might also join in.
That was how precious a Saint-Grade Technique was.
It was also for Bai Xueqing’s own good. She wasn’t nearly strong enough yet to
defend herself if word got out.
The fewer people who knew, the better.
“Fine!”
She said at last, nodding reluctantly. She didn’t think it was such a big deal, but seeing Bai Zihan so serious, she knew she had to agree.
Moreover, she had no problem keeping a secret-as long as this nightmare of a
problem was finally gone.
“Good!”
Then he added, “And one more thing. This goes double for your physique. Don’t
ever let anyone know about it.”
Bai Zihan warned.
If some knowledgeable old monster discovered that she carried the Heavenly
Ice Body, who knew what kind of trouble that would bring?
Both her physique and the Technique were equally not to be told to others.
“Alright, alright!”
She said, becoming a bit annoyed with Bai Zihan’s excessive caution.
It was only because she didn’t truly understand just how powerful her physique
was-or what Bai Zihan was about to give her.
Bai Zihan finally leaned back, his lips curling into a small smile.
“Good. At least you can be obedient sometimes.”
Her eyes narrowed instantly. “Hmph! Don’t push your luck.”
