Perfect Villain Life: Universal Job Change

Chapter 12 - A Man's Growth



Chapter 12: A Man’s Growth

Although Chen Lingxi was the daughter of the Governor, she was entirely different from elite offspring like Yu Xun and Feng Peng.

She didn’t rise to power through her father’s arrangements but chose to be an ordinary teacher at Yizhong.

Her father, Chen Beiguo, the Governor of Donghai Province, didn’t interfere with her decision. Besides Principal Lu Yun and a few school leaders, no one knew her true identity.

These students were the first batch she had taught. She had invested great effort into them, especially Lin Feng, the genius she greatly valued and loved. After all, any teacher would appreciate a good student.

However, Lin Feng failed his job change due to interference in the awakening ceremony. Driven by a sense of justice and her responsibility as a teacher, Chen Lingxi refused to let this go, even though Qin Xian had extraordinary connections!

Wrong is wrong!

Of course, Chen Lingxi was aware that Qin Xian’s background was formidable; the Qin family of the Imperial Capital was a thousand-year-old behemoth at the Empire’s pinnacle.

It was no wonder the bureaucrats were so fearful, but Chen Lingxi had her own confidence. This was Donghai City, not the Imperial Capital!

Her father, Chen Beiguo, had been the Governor of Donghai Province for over ten years, deeply rooted in the area.

Chen Beiguo himself was a Level 68 powerhouse! More importantly, while Qin Xian had his background, the Chen family wasn’t without support.

Chen Beiguo was personally promoted by Regent Lu Ji, a confidant of Lord Lu Ji! The Regent was the nominal ruler of the Empire. Even a family as strong as the Qin family had to bow before the Regent.

At least that’s what Chen Lingxi believed.

Zephyr was a beginner dungeon suitable for levels 1 to 5, dropping white-quality equipment.

It was very popular, attracting many students who had just awakened their professions to level up, and some even came to mentor newcomers.

[Ding, congratulations on completing the Zephyr dungeon in 16 minutes and 11 seconds, earning a 5-star perfect rating!].

[Gained experience: 1300 points.].

[Loot: Miller’s Sword (white quality), Broken Crystal Core (white quality)…..].

In the suburbs of Donghai City, at the entrance of the Zephyr dungeon, Lin Feng appeared slowly. People around looked at him in shock. What kind of monster is this!?

At the entrance of the Zephyr dungeon, the leaderboard changed again.

[First Place: Lin Feng].

[Team Size: 1].

[Time: 16 minutes 11 seconds].

“Wow, solo clear, that’s awesome!”

“What’s with this guy? How did he beat the BOSS alone?”

The crowd exploded with chatter, looking at Lin Feng with shock. Although Zephyr was just a beginner dungeon, it wasn’t easy. Especially the final BOSS, Miller the Overseer, was a notorious killer for newcomers with high attack and defense.

Ordinary five-person teams with full TNs (Tank and Healer) had to be cautious, or they could easily be wiped. Yet Lin Feng solo-cleared it in just 16 minutes!

“Lin Feng!?” A student from Yizhong recognized Lin Feng, their expression mixed.

Lin Feng’s job change failure had made him the laughingstock of the entire school, a complete failure, but he could solo a dungeon!? What was going on? Wasn’t SS-level Non-Specialist supposed to be useless!?

Lin Feng listened to the discussions around him, his expression calm. He glanced at his panel, nodding to himself. The Arcane Source… truly defied the heavens! 

With the Arcane Source, the dungeon monsters were as good as free experience, and the summoned Void Tide Insects crushed them, allowing him to collect experience effortlessly. For the past two days, he had immersed himself in dungeons, hitting the daily limit of 10 runs.

He was now Level 4! Although leveling was fast at the start, this speed was still extraordinary!

Lin Feng glanced at the leaderboard, expressionless, and turned to leave, disappearing from view. Soon, Lin Feng returned home.

“You’re Level 4 already?” His adoptive father, Lin Yu, smiled with satisfaction, looking at his calm adoptive son.

In the past two days, Lin Feng seemed to have changed entirely. Previously, Lin Feng’s personality was somewhat arrogant and proud, but now, he seemed to have grown up overnight, becoming very composed. Although Lin Yu didn’t know what had happened, it was a good thing.

Lin Feng’s eyes were dim. Since that night, he hadn’t contacted Su Keqing again. There was no point in contacting her as he understood that many things in the entertainment industry were beyond one’s control. Su Keqing had protected herself well, but when faced with a truly powerful figure forcing her…

What could a girl do? 

He didn’t blame Su Keqing; instead, he felt guilty. He had often promised to protect Su Keqing, but when she was forced, he was helpless and he understood one thing clearly. Ultimately, the problem was that he was too weak!

If he were a powerhouse, how could Su Keqing be forced!? Strength, he needed strength! Sometimes, a man’s growth truly happens overnight. Therefore, in the past two days, Lin Feng had been leveling up like mad, reaching Level 4 in just a few days!

Of course, solely relying on dungeons was not enough. Lin Feng’s real advantage was the Arcane Source; he marveled at its power, which could directly devour various items and convert them into experience points! But Lin Feng noticed that his adoptive father, Lin Yu, seemed a bit gloomy.

He couldn’t help but ask, “Old man, what’s wrong?”

Lin Yu said gravely, “Things are troublesome. We might have been discovered.”

“Discovered?”

Lin Feng was stunned, then realized, “You mean by the Qin family?”

Lin Yu nodded slowly: “The Qin family arrived in Donghai City a couple of days ago, and they’re likely the ones who disrupted your awakening ceremony. These past few days, there have been people watching our house.”

As a former Imperial Major General, Lin Yu’s capabilities were unquestionable. In the past two nights, he had secretly infiltrated the Traffic Control Bureau and Donghai City Airport, hacking into the system to find information on the spiritual powered plane!

“This time, the eldest son of the Qin family, Qin Xian, has personally come. It’s said that the heirs of several families in Donghai Province, the Provoncial Speaker’s son, and the Young Master of the Thousand Waves Guild all went to the airport to welcome him.”

“The Provincial Council, the Provincial Supervision Office are all filled with Qin family people, as is the Thousand Waves Guild.” A trace of coldness appeared on his face: “It seems this time, the Qin family is determined.”
