Forced to Be a Villain: Starting With My Brain Extraction System Chapter 17: Chu Liang-Legendary Gravedigger

"What kind of bastard digs graves to earn his keep? Do you have no sha?"

Near the northern boundary of the outer courtyard of the Divine Cauldron Sect, a middle-aged man with a long beard cursed at a thin young man in tattered cloth who ca running out at extre speed.

Beyond him, rows upon rows of stone tablets stood in silence, while at the entrance, a simple arched gate of weathered gray stone made it clear this was the cetery where the sect’s fallen disciples were laid to rest.

Despite looking worn down, the young man was so fast and slippery, none of the guard disciples chasing him could catch him.

"Heh...what sha is there in this? The dead are already dead. Can’t the living eat to survive?"

"You idiots really don’t know anything about my honorable profession."

Hearing the curse from the middle-aged man, the young man turned around and replied with a smile before starting to run again.

From how he easily avoided everyone and disappeared right after, it seed he was a repeat offender.

"Honorable profession? What honor is there in grave-digging? You bastard has no sha?"

Seeing how the figure was already getting out of his sight, the middle-aged man cursed loudly in anger, throwing drops of spittle everywhere.

"Chu Liang, this is the last warning I give you."

"If you still try to ss this place, I swear I will definitely kill you, even if you know Elder Yuxuan."

At last, he didn’t forget to swear, giving the ultimatum.

His potential had already been exhausted, and he had no hope of building his foundation.

After using the little connection he had, he finally got this lucrative position of Graveyard captain to plan for his retirent.

But this Chu Liang ca again and again to dig graves, disturbing his rest. And more importantly, due to his connection with the Elder Chu Yuxuan, he couldn’t do anything drastic besides warning him.

Today, though, he had had enough.

Like he swore, if that bastard still ca to disturb him again, he wouldn’t care who was behind him.

After giving the warning to the thin air, he swung his long sleeves in anger before entering the mansion beside the graveyard.

He didn’t want to be the spectacle of the crowd.

"Chu Liang? Gravedigger?"

While the crowd began retreating slowly after the fiasco was over, Mo Zhiran was instead stunned by the na he had just heard.

After saying goodbye to Su Ruyue, he followed the direction given by her, finally locating the Graveyard. But he never thought that here, he would hear the na of the Legendary Gravedigger Chu Liang.

’Is he...the sa person?’

Zhiran couldn’t help but doubt, looking at the thin figure of the young man who seed frivolous and reckless. No angel of him seed legendary in any sense.

Moreover, in his previous life, he never heard that Chu Lian was from the Divine Cauldron Sect.

Well, it might also be because this sect was later destroyed by Mo Tianyu’s enemy in a fit of anger.

’But...such a coincidence...’

Due to the sa na and sa profession, Zhiran had to doubt if he was the sa person.

’It seems I need to keep an eye on him.’

Zhiran thought with a faint glint in his eyes.

After all, Chu Liang wasn’t called Legendary Gravedigger because of his extraordinary skills.

He was called such because of his goddamn luck that defied common sense.

In fact, Zhiran almost placed him on the sa level as Tianyu in so ways, since that guy literally dug the grave of a Soul Formation cultivator during one of his expeditions.

After that... after that, nothing needed to be said.

With the inheritance of a Soul Formation cultivator, Chu Liang’s realm and talent surged by leaps and bounds, and he was finally accepted into a famous sect in the Central Continent.

That was why his na and story were so famous that even he, who was wandering around, heard it loud and clear.

’If I can get that inheritance from him, then won’t all my problems be solved?’

Zhiran couldn’t help but breathe heavily.

Unfortunately, besides a few rumors, he knew nothing about this guy, let alone whether it was the right one.

So, he could only pay close attention before plundering his opportunity.

’But I can still make use of this guy for now, can’t I?’

Zhiran thought with a smirk, looking at the dilapidated gate of the graveyard in front.

Just now, he clearly felt that the middle-aged man guarding this graveyard was at a late stage of the Qi Condensation realm. And due to his age, it seed his aura was quite weak.

Previously, Zhiran just wanted to stroll around the graveyard with so excuse, intending to test his system. But with the ruckus now, it seed difficult.

So, considering all the things, he finally decided to raid this graveyard at night.

And from the situation, it seed he didn’t even need to prepare any alias. There was already soone ready to take the bla for him.

’Tch...tch...Chu Liang, don’t bla . I am just helping you learn the ways of the world early, that’s all.’

Zhiran thought and finally turned around, leaving the place entirely. Now that his plan to test the system had been postponed, he would just go and claim his new residence.

’And by the way, let’s also choose a few techniques, as Elder Qui has said. There is no point wasting the opportunity.’

He thought and changed his direction towards the Martial Pavilion.

Although he did have a few techniques in his mind from his previous world, all of them were for the higher realm and related to demonic thods.

He couldn’t use them now.

So, it was better to choose a good movent and fighting thod as a backup and practice them carefully.

It could help him in his early days.

Relying entirely on the system was never to Zhiran’s liking in the first place.

’Besides, I still need to make it to the top to get that silly girl Ruyue, don’t I?’

Zhiran laughed lightly, rembering sothing big and soft, then shook his head.

’I am getting distracted.’
