Rebirth Of The Villainous Crown Prince

'System, if I am only going to get one or two Kill Points, I won't gain much. There's indeed a chance to breakthrough to the next level in cultivation. However, I don't think I will be able to accumulate enough Kill Points to buy the Nine Heavens Painting.'

'So what I am asking for is, is there any method which I can use to accumulate the Kill Points at a faster rate? I have no intention of wasting much time.'

[Host, there's indeed a method. However, you can only follow it if you have absolute trust in the System]

'Oh? Tell me, what is this method all about?' Ye Tian Yun was intrigued by System's words. 

Especially the part where the System asked him to trust it.

'Well, that will be a bit difficult….' Ye Tian Yun thought.

[Host, the method is pretty simple - all you need to do is drink the Spirit Water.]

'Hn? Say what?' Ye Tian Yun asked again to confirm if he had heard something wrong or not.

[Host, you need to drink the Spirit Water.]

'Are you crazy!?' Ye Tian Yun almost shouted in shock.

'Do you want to kill me? What kind of absurd method is that?' He continued; his tone seemed as if he was talking to an idiot.

[System has no intention to cause you any harm, Host.]

'Oh? You want me to drink something akin to poison, and then you say you care about me?'

[System has no intention to cause you any harm, Host.]

'Well, repeating yourself won't convince anyone.' Ye Tian Yun waved his hand in the air, 'I won't be drinking this water.'

'You should know that Spirit Water is the purest form of Qi? And you should also know that if this were to enter a cultivator's body in liquid form, everything within the body would go haywire, and it won't even take a whole minute before the cultivator starts to suffer from Qi deviation.'

[This is the reason why System asked for absolute trust from the Host.]

Ye Tian Yun shook his head, 'Well, I do have a hunch that you're some kind of omnipotent being. However, that isn't enough for me to believe that you can prevent my certain death.'

[Host, the System is fair and impartial. It doesn't ask you to trust it; rather, it's up to you if you wish to trust it or not.]

[No one is forcing you - you decide everything. The outcome will be based on your choice]

[It will be up to you whether you want to accumulate enough Kill Points for yourself and buy the Nine Heavens Painting, or you want to increase your Kill Points through the regular method slowly and only breakthrough one realm.]

[It will also be up to you whether you want to increase your cultivation faster to make things easier for yourself, or you want to face Xiao Ming with a small power gap - which he can easily overcome.]

[It will be up to you whether you want to decrease your hardship and make your path towards your goal much clear and less burdened. No one is forcing you to choose anything.]

[It will be up to you when-]

'Alright, Alright, Alright - you can stop now.' Ye Tian Yun waved his hand in the air as if swatting away a fly.

'You say you aren't forcing me to choose, but then go on to tell me all the benefits that I can get from this. I thoroughly understand your plan - so don't try to over-smart me.'

[It is up to you, Host. System won't interfere at all.]

'Then explain a few things to me first.'

[Indeed, Host. You can ask  for your doubts.]

'Tell me, how will it be possible for me to control the explosion within my body after drinking the Spirit Water? Also, how much of it do I need to drink per day?'

[Host, you already have the ability to prevent your body from suffering a painful explosion throughout the body, crippling yourself.]

'Oh? Go on.' Ye Tian Yun asked while scratching his chin.

[Host, all you need to do is use your Sword Intent to suppress the eruption-like feeling that you will receive.]

Ye Tian Yun shook his head, 'You make it sound too easy. I can see too many loopholes in your plan.'

'The first being - a Sword Intent has no relation with what a cultivator cultivates.'

'There have been instances when the cultivators were very talented in terms of the sword. However, when it came to normal cultivation, they found themselves to be quite lacking.'

'Even after they broke through the higher realms of Sword Intent, their cultivation didn't increase - this clearly shows there's no relation between how one cultivates Qi and their Sword Intent.'

'Even if you think there's a connection - how am I supposed to use it to suppress the Qi flow within my body? I can affect my Sword Intent with my Qi flow. However, it is impossible to do it another way around; that is, Sword Intent doesn't affect the Qi flow.'

'Now, the second problem we have is that there won't even be enough of a chance to think about what to do before my body explodes.'

'You're telling me to use my Sword Intent as soon as I 'start feeling' that my body is about to erupt - well, the issue is - before I can even know what this feeling is - my body would have long exploded.'

'So let's leave the Sword Intent alone - tell me if there's any other way which I can use to accumulate the Kill Points faster?'

[Host, there's a reason why System asked you to have absolute trust in it. So you can trust the System, which would make things much easier for everyone - be it me, you, or the others.]

Ye Tian Yun shook his head, 'Even if I believe you, tell me, what are you doing in this situation? I will be the one to drink the Spirit Water, and I will be the one who needs to release the Sword Intent on time, so why are you asking me to have trust in you?'
