17 Changing his Fate and the Fate Points

Ye Tian Yun expected Fang Chen to beg for his life. He wanted to see the exact terror in Fang Chen's eyes, like the one he had seen before his rebirth when he finally killed him after many futile efforts.

However, the reaction from Fang Chen turned out to be the opposite. Except for the initial fear in his eyes, now he wasn't showing any emotions.

Ye Tian Yun smirked as he felt how ridiculous his fake disguise is, "Haash, Young Master Fang Chen is indeed a young man of talent, to be able to control your emotions even after such a bloody scene, I am really surprised."

Fang Chen raised his eyes and stared directly into Ye Tian Yun's face and said, "To be honest, I am not really feeling bad. In fact, I can say that I have gotten what I came for."

"You have gotten what you came for? I don't see any treasure with you, moreover, you have also lost your loyal guards." Ye Tian Yun felt Fang Chen's reply was ridiculous. However, what Fang Chen said next made him understand exactly what was going on, and how wrong he had been.

"Young Master Yun Tian, I won't beat the bush, My main aim to come here was actually to take out these three bast*rds. I may sound ridiculous, but I am actually just a pawn in a big scheme against the Gracious Sword Sect. This time I had planned out this trip and managed to hoodwink my guards into greed and make them come so deep into the Gracious Mountain Range. North from here is the lair of a Middle Tier spirit beast, Black Horned Python. I wanted to take them there and create a situation of a fight and reap all the benefits.'

"You could have just been on your way, why come after me?" Ye Tian Yun asked though he had a hunch of the answer he was gonna get.

"Well, I can't let any witnesses away. And you even reasoned that you were somehow part of the sect. No way I was gonna let you go." Fang Chen replied as if it was a matter of fact.

"However, you missed the mark and underestimated my cultivation?" Ye Tian Yun smirked again. He wanted to take out as much as information possible from him because Fang Chen was going to be more useful after his death.

"Yeah, not just that, but I wanted both sides to get injured. I sent Ah Wan as a scout and then the other two. Everything would have worked right if you had cultivation one or two stages lower." Fang Chen replied casually. He knew his life was in danger but he still wanted to keep himself composed in front of his enemy.

"Well, what you said may hold some truth but it actually doesn't matter anymore. You should understand your situation better than me. Maybe I could, say, spare you if you can prove your worth" Ye Tian Yun replied, still trying to get some more information from him.

"I will only say this, I know all the ins and outs of the Sect in the Outer Court and the Head Elder of the Outer Court knows my true identity. And is in fact, no less than my master. Both of them know of my trip here, and they will definitely investigate everything." Fang Chen started to think of a way out of his current predicament.

"True identity? The fact that you're the bastard son of the Sect Leader?" This time it was Fang Chen's turn to get surprised by Ye Tian Yun's reply.

"Impossible! How do you know!? No more than a dozen people know of this secret and even I had to take so many risks to get to hold of this information." Fang Chen literally shouted in shock, "Who are you!?"

"Your death." Ye Tian Yun slashed his sword and the sword aura flickered.

Fang Chen's life was immediately severed. His eyes were wide open with a hint of disbelief even at death's door.

[Congratulations Host, you have successfully killed a 5th Level Qi Refining cultivator, and gained 5 Kill Points!]

[Congratulations to Host for changing his fate by killing 'Fang Chen'. 20 Fate Points have been rewarded.]

'Fate Points? That's new. What is the use of these Fate Points?' Ye Tian Yun asked the system.

[Fate Points are rewarded when you kill or befriend the cultivators who were instrumental to your death. You can use Fate Points to buy the power of Tokens.]

"Well, this is great news. But wasn't Fang Chen already dead for a year before that day."

[Cultivator Fang Chen was the one who designed the ambush]

'Oh? Well, that came as a surprise, to think even after his death he was able to harm me. Deciding to join the Gracious Sword Sect really proved beneficial to me, if I were to meet Fang Chen later when he grew older, he would have really escaped from such a situation. It's a good thing he didn't get time to mature himself.' Ye Tian Yun thought as he took out a small knife and collected fresh blood from Fang Chen's palm. He needed enough blood for at least a year since he didn't know how long he was gonna stay in the Gracious Sword Sect.

After collecting enough blood he thought of checking his current status, 'Status'

[Status]

[Host: Ye Tian Yun]

[Kill Points: 3597/20000]

[Fate Points: 20]

[Emblem (0/4)]

[Token (0/12)]

[Cultivation: 2nd Level of Qi Stabilization]

[Cultivation Techniques: One Sword for all (Initial Phase), Thousand Faced Death (Middle Phase)]

'Hmm, new things are now added,' Ye Tian Yun raised his eyebrows a bit as he thought.

[Host has unlocked Fate Points, hence the [Status] has updated.]

'System, upgrade 'One Sword For All' to the Middle Phase. I want to be prepared for all cases.'

[Congratulations Host! Your cultivation technique, One Sword For All has reached the Middle Phase.]

[Remaining Kill Points: 3497]

'Oh, well now it's time to get started. System, buy Aura Replication Pill.'

[Aura Replication Pill: 300 Kill Points]

[Touch this pill on the forehead of the target and then on your forehead, for the next 24 hours, you will have exact same aura as the target]

'Damn, you increased the price by ten times! Last time it was only 32 Kill Points. Now its 300!'

[Host is in the Lower Heavens, he shouldn't expect the same price due to the low density of Qi.]

'Same half-assed reason. Alright, buy it. I want a higher tier pill, so I can retain the aura for at least a year.'

[High Tier Aura Replication Pill: 1890 Kill Points]

With a feeling as if a knife was pierced through his heart, Ye Tian Yun gritted his teeth and said, "Buy it."

[Purchase successful. High Tier Aura Replication Pill added to inventory.]

[Remaining Kill Points: 1607]

'I haven't seen an emblem, I have only seen your greed since I met you. You should be called The Greedy System'

Ye Tian Yun then took out the Aura Replication Pill, touched it to the forehead of Fang Chen, took out the blood he collected earlier, and started using his Thousand Faced Death skill.

He was going to enter the sect as Fang Chen.
