Chapter 314: Don't look back!
Watching the mysterious treasure chest, woven from nine-colored light, slowly open before him, Shen Anyu's heart was also filled with excitement and anticipation. He involuntarily held his breath, imagining all sorts of powerful treasures and abilities, such as Dark Nerves, Hypnosis, Time Stop, World Modulation, and so on—ahem.
[Ding! Congratulations, Host, you have received a Super God-level reward: Love Infinite Teleport!]
"???"
Shen Anyu froze, a string of question marks virtually appearing over his head. He understood 'Teleport,' a staple of high-level spatial manipulation. But what in the world was 'Love Infinite Teleport'?
The name gave Shen Anyu a bad premonition. It sounded like something out of a magical girl anime or a cheesy romance drama, not a tool for a Destined Villain who crushed protagonists under his heel.
As a Destined Villain, Shen Anyu sympathized with a certain scientist from fiction. Wasn't he just quietly researching that the Earth is round? But then, a brat suddenly appeared, shouting something about 'Love Infinite,' and miraculously struck him down with the power of friendship and illogical plot armor.
However, Shen Anyu was a pragmatist. He quickly shook off the distaste for the name and focused on the substance.
[Super God-level Skill: Love Infinite Teleport]
[Type: Spatial Movement Skill]
[Effect: Can instantly teleport to a destined heroine or Daughter of Destiny with a favorability rating of ninety or higher, regardless of distance or environment. Can also instantly teleport a destined heroine or Daughter of Destiny with a favorability rating of ninety or higher to your side. Cannot be interrupted by attacks!]
After carefully examining the skill description, Shen Anyu's face lit up with pleasant surprise, and a satisfied smile appeared on his handsome features.
"As expected of a Super God-level skill, it's truly powerful!"
Although the name made one want to complain, this Super God skill, Love Infinite Teleport, truly lived up to its tier. It was a strategic nuke in the form of mobility.
"Regardless of distance or environment..." Shen Anyu murmured, savoring the implications.
This meant absolute freedom. Even if a destined heroine was trapped in a separate dimension, a sealed realm, or a space station outside the planet, Shen Anyu could instantly teleport there or instantly teleport her over. The barriers of space were now nonexistent for him, provided he had a sufficiently loyal woman as an anchor.
This was a life-saving and defensive divine skill!
Imagine encountering a powerful Child of Destiny who had unlocked some heaven-defying forbidden technique, or facing a nuclear bombardment. With a single thought, Shen Anyu could vanish from the battlefield and reappear in the warm embrace of a lover thousands of miles away. It was the ultimate "get out of jail free" card.
And also a divine skill for team battles!
He could instantly teleport a group of destined heroines to participate in besieging powerful enemies. A one-man army could become a literal army in a blink.
Although not many of the destined heroines currently associated with Shen Anyu were powerful enough to be decisive combatants yet, Shen Anyu was playing the long game. Under his cultivation and resource-feeding, they would become increasingly strong.
For example, Luo Yuhe, the destined heroine of 'God of War Returns,' was already a Martial Dao Grandmaster. With Shen Anyu's guidance and resources, she had the potential for the Heavenly Human Unity level in due time, or even higher. She was a natural warrior.
For example, Wen Feifei, the Daughter of Destiny who dominated the entertainment industry. Her power was conceptual—the power of fame and faith. As long as she had enough fan popularity, her 'Entertainment Domination System' could grant her terrifying abilities.
There were also Su Hongmian with her sword talent, Liu Ruyan with her business acumen and hidden potential, Yang Luoluo with her pure martial constitution, and others. Most of them had extraordinary Aptitudes.
After all, destined heroines were favored by destiny. Each was a masterpiece of creation, beautiful down to their pores, so their natural talent was certainly not lacking. They were diamonds in the rough, waiting for him to polish them.
Once they grew up, wouldn't it be wonderful for Shen Anyu to summon them with a single teleport?
"Summon the harem!"
Shen Anyu chuckled at the thought. Like the Lion King on the savanna, perhaps Shen Anyu, the Destined Villain, wouldn't even need to act personally; a group of destined heroine lionesses could solve the Child of Destiny, tearing him apart while Shen Anyu sipped wine on a throne.
"With this Love Infinite Teleport, I won't have to stay in Modu all day; I can get involved with the Child of Destiny in other places."
Shen Anyu's eyes deepened with calculation. The number of Children of Destiny in Modu was the highest, so he had always been stationed here to harvest them efficiently. But that didn't mean there were no Children of Destiny elsewhere in the vast world.
It was just that Shen Anyu was one person. He couldn't be everywhere at once. Travel time was a waste of efficiency.
But with Love Infinite Teleport, the map had just shrunk. As long as he strategically distributed destined heroines with a favorability rating of ninety or higher in key cities—Huadu, Jinling, the capital, even overseas—he could control the board globally.
He could solve a Child of Destiny in Huadu in the morning, date a destined heroine in Jinling at noon, handle business in New York in the afternoon, and return to Modu to sleep at night.
Efficiency greatly improved. Time management was the key to successful villainy.
"And with Love Infinite Teleport, they won't complain all day..."
Shen Anyu rubbed his temples slightly. Having a harem was glorious, but it came with logistical challenges. He now had too many women, and his main focus was still on conquering new destined heroines and dealing with Children of Destiny. Naturally, he didn't have enough time to accompany each one every day.
It was imaginable how resentful those destined heroines who were left alone in their empty rooms must have been. A resentful woman was a troublesome variable.
Fortunately, the personalities of male-oriented destined heroines were mostly loyal. Combined with Shen Anyu dispatching female guards for protection and surveillance, as well as nanometer monitoring robots, everything was foolproof.
Otherwise, an ordinary person acting like Shen Anyu would surely find himself with a 'great grassland' on his head—a green hat of epic proportions.
Didn't the emperor in 'Empresses in the Palace' turn green enough to blend in with a forest?
As for kidney problems? Shen Anyu scoffed. Was that still an issue for him, who possessed a [Divine Steel Body]? His stamina was limitless. He could handle an army, in battle or in bed.
"The skill is good! Excellent, even."
"However... Daughter of Destiny doesn't have a favorability prompt, hmm..."
Shen Anyu frowned slightly. Destined heroines had clear favorability prompts from the system (e.g., [Favorability +10]), allowing him to track their loyalty precisely. But Daughters of Destiny like Wen Feifei did not. Their systems were separate, and his interface only showed general conquest progress.
"It's simple enough; I'll just try it. If it works, she's over ninety. If not, I stay put."
With a thought, Shen Anyu focused on Wen Feifei as his anchor.
Activate Love Infinite Teleport.
Space twisted. There was no nausea, no sound, just a sudden shift in reality.
One moment he was in his study, and the next, Shen Anyu instantly appeared in Wen Feifei's bedroom.
The room was dimly lit, smelling faintly of lavender and the unique, sweet scent of a woman. On the bed, Wen Feifei lay fast asleep, exhausted from the... intense "exercise" earlier. Her breathing was soft and rhythmic.
Shen Anyu looked at the sleeping beauty. Her eyelashes fluttered slightly in her dreams, and her cheeks were still flushed a faint pink. She looked defenseless and utterly his.
"She actually has a favorability rating of ninety or higher. It seems her body is very honest!"
Shen Anyu smiled, a mix of triumph and tenderness. Despite her verbal resistance and the "contract" nature of their relationship, Wen Feifei had already fallen for him completely. The prompt success of the teleportation was proof.
Shen Anyu felt a bit of pity and decided not to wake Wen Feifei for another round. She needed rest.
Instead, he moved his mind again, focusing on another anchor.
Target: Liu Mi.
Space blurred again.
Shen Anyu instantly appeared in a certain female dormitory at Modu University.
The transition was seamless. The smell of lavender was replaced by the humidity of a bathroom and the scent of floral shampoo.
"Stinky Linlin, are you back from class? Help me bring my towel; I forgot it."
Hearing footsteps outside the bathroom door, Liu Mi raised her voice while washing her hair. The sound of running water accompanied her voice.
Shen Anyu's gaze swept over the room. It was a typical high-end dorm room, cluttered with girl stuff—plushies, cosmetics, fashion magazines. Through the frosted glass door of the bathroom, he could see a vague silhouette.
He walked over quietly. The door was unlocked.
Inside, Liu Mi was wearing a light purple bathrobe that clung to her damp skin. Her head was tilted forward over the sink as she scrubbed her dark, long hair. The water ran clear over her fingers. Her pair of fair, jade-like feet were planted on the tiles, toes curled, like adorable silkworms gripping the floor for balance.
"Stinky Linlin, why aren't you talking? Hurry up."
Liu Mi grumbled, blindly reaching out a hand, water dripping from her hair.
Shen Anyu smiled slightly. He grabbed a fluffy towel from the rack. Instead of handing it to her, he stepped forward and directly wrapped his arms around Liu Mi's body from behind, pulling her back against his chest.
"Ah!"
Liu Mi's body stiffened instantly. Her face turned pale.
The chest pressing against her back was broad, hard, and unmistakably masculine. The hands around her waist were large and strong. How could she not feel that the person behind her wasn't her best friend Jiang Linlin, but an adult man?
Panic surged. A pervert? An intruder?
Just as she was about to scream and struggle, ready to bite or claw.
A voice filled with laughter, low and magnetic, rang out right next to her ear:
"Liu Mi, don't turn around. I'm your husband."
Hearing this familiar voice, the adrenaline drained from Liu Mi instantly. Her tense body finally relaxed, melting back into his embrace.
"Stinky husband, you scared me to death!" she chided, slapping his arm lightly. "How did you get in here? The door was locked!"
Liu Mi turned her body in his arms, her charming fox-like eyes looking up at the handsome man before her. Her expression was a mix of feigned anger and genuine joy. Water droplets fell from her hair onto her face, making her look even more alluring.
"I have my ways," Shen Anyu whispered, kissing the tip of her wet nose. "I missed you."
Liu Mi giggled, her heart fluttering. Even though he was a scoundrel who disappeared for days, his charm was irresistible.
Immediately, Liu Mi pulled Shen Anyu's large hand and led him out of the humid bathroom into the dormitory room. She sat on her chair and handed him the hairdryer, sweetly cooing:
"Good husband, help me blow my hair. Consider it punishment for scaring me."
How could Shen Anyu refuse such a request? It was a domestic intimacy that he surprisingly enjoyed.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~
The hairdryer hummed to life. Hot air blew towards Liu Mi's dark, wet hair. Shen Anyu stood behind her, his fingers gently combing through the strands, feeling the silky texture. He was careful not to burn her scalp, his movements practiced and gentle.
Liu Mi comfortably closed her eyes, leaning back against him, her mood joyful. She hummed a little tune, enjoying the pampering.
The lovers were in perfect harmony, a beautiful painting of domestic bliss amidst the chaos of a villain's life.
Just then, the sound of a key turning in the lock shattered the peace.
Click.
The dormitory door opened, and Jiang Linlin walked in, carrying a bag of books, returning from class.
"Mimi, I'm ba—"
She stopped dead in her tracks.
Seeing this scene—her best friend Liu Mi, wearing only a bathrobe, sitting with her eyes closed in bliss, while a tall, handsome man lovingly dried her hair—Jiang Linlin's bag almost dropped to the floor.
Her beautiful, deer-like eyes widened, then narrowed as they looked at Shen Anyu with unmistakable resentment.
She bit her lip, her gaze shifting from Shen Anyu's hands in Liu Mi's hair to his face. It was a look that screamed: You came to see her, but what about me?
