Days flew by one after another.
In the blink of an eye, it was winter again.
Lin Yu used to really like winter.
Especially when it snowed, the whole world would be wrapped in silver, and just looking at it made him feel relaxed and happy.
Lin Yu still remembered the time before he transmigrated.
Whenever he saw it snowing, he would be as happy as a mindless monkey. Not even feeling the cold, he would casually throw on a jacket and happily run out to find someone to play in the snow with.
He was resistant to the cold back then, too. Even when his hands and face turned red and hurt from the freezing temperature, he didn't care at all and could play from dawn until dusk.
Thinking about it now, it really proved the old saying.
A young man can brave the cold purely relying on his youthful vigor!
As for now...
Lin Yu sniffled and silently pulled the zipper of his down jacket all the way to the top.
What?
I'm not being weak!
This is just!
Just...
It's...
It's just that this winter is too cold!
Lin Yu indignantly snorted a puff of white mist from his nose.
Showing that he absolutely refused to admit he was getting old.
But he couldn't keep it up for long.
Lin Yu couldn't help but raise his hands, slowly rubbing the skin on his face that was stinging from the cold.
Looking up at the snowflakes drifting down from the sky, Lin Yu wasn't in a very wonderful mood.
Thinking back on the past few years since his transmigration.
Lin Yu realized he hardly had any comfortable winters.
Damn it all.
In these past few years, which winter didn't have some weird stuff happen?
Especially when it snowed.
That Tang Manman standing in the snowy night almost gave him PTSD!
And Qing Mo, who took him up the mountain in the heavy snow.
To think she could actually come up with that kind of trick, he could only say she lived up to her reputation!
Whenever he recalled the truth Qing Mo blurted out while begging for mercy, Lin Yu felt a wave of speechlessness.
Simply put.
On the auspicious day of the Lunar New Year, she planned to kidnap this soft, fragrant, and smoke-scented Blondie to an old castle located deep in the mountains and ancient forests.
According to her.
There was no internet, no phone, and no means of contacting the outside world.
Once he went there, he definitely wouldn't be able to get out.
According to her expectations.
She would imprison him there.
When he realized he was imprisoned, he would definitely get very angry, and then he would subject her to a series of violent acts or punishments.
Then her goal would be achieved.
The plan was very absurd.
But the more absurd part came later.
Qing Mo seemed to have a rather large deviation in her self-awareness.
Probably her little head was controlling her big head.
She hid a satellite walkie-talkie in that old castle.
After all, with such a large family business outside, she couldn't just ignore it entirely.
Here was the absurd part.
He didn't know what she was thinking.
She just felt she had the ability to keep her mouth tightly shut and not reveal a single word of this secret.
Just like how, after her plan failed, she confidently believed she could keep this secret in her stomach for a lifetime.
Endlessly absurd.
The result didn't need much explaining.
Anyway, Lin Yu remembered that night, he felt like he hadn't even exerted much effort.
And she confessed everything.
If Qing Mo really could have taken him there on that Lunar New Year's Day.
Lin Yu reckoned that when he came out, he would probably still be a virgin.
What a noob!
Lin Yu felt a lot of disdain for Qing Mo.
At least in this regard.
Just as he was thinking about Qing Mo, Qing Mo suddenly arrived.
Watching Qing Mo, dressed in plain black, walking through the pure snow, Lin Yu inexplicably remembered a personal signature he had scrolled past on the internet before.
: My personality is truly terrible, but my saving grace is that my face is just too sweet.
Yeah.
Just based on Qing Mo's face.
No matter how bizarre and terrible her personality was, there would definitely be a massive crowd of people who liked her.
Moreover.
This was entirely a bonus point for her, alright?
Qing Mo walked closer, and Lin Yu looked at her outfit today.
Trying to find the reason why his heart had been pounding wildly just now.
An unbuttoned black trench coat, paired with a black knitted turtleneck sweater, a pair of black slim-fit jeans for the lower body, plus a pair of high-waisted black leather boots.
There was actually nothing high-end about this outfit.
It was just an ordinary all-black look.
You couldn't go wrong with it, but it didn't have any major highlights either.
It was just that the person in front of him was Qing Mo.
For others, clothes make the person.
For her, the person made the clothes.
When he first laid eyes on Qing Mo just now, Lin Yu felt like his heart had skipped a beat.
Like a malfunctioning machine, after a brief pause and a buzz, it started spinning wildly out of control.
Although Lin Yu had already seen what he should and shouldn't see countless times.
But Lin Yu was still fiercely struck by Qing Mo's beauty today.
There was no helping it.
When she got out of the car and walked towards him.
Lin Yu felt that the entire snow-covered world in front of him was serving as a backdrop for this noble black rose.
It was as if today's heavy snow was falling solely for the few short seconds of her appearance.
Endlessly beautiful.
Perhaps this was the highest realm of fashion?
Others used bright colors for matching.
She used the weather as her bright color.
Large, goose-feather-like snowflakes rustled down.
Qing Mo stood in front of Lin Yu, tilting her chin up slightly. Her face was aloof, but her eyes were tinged with a smug smile.
As if asking the dumbfounded Blondie in front of her.
Do I look good?
Lin Yu saw the obvious questioning look in Qing Mo's eyes, but he didn't follow her wishes and praise her.
Looking at her outfit that prioritized style over warmth, Lin Yu asked:
"Are you cold?"
Qing Mo was slightly taken aback, and her black eyes, which had reflected smugness, quickly softened.
Shifting her gaze slightly, her expression looked just a tiny bit awkward. She stopped looking at Lin Yu's face and gave a slight nod.
Lin Yu didn't say much.
He grabbed the zipper of his long down jacket, which covered most of his thighs, and pulled it down.
Then he pulled the fragrant Qing Mo right into his own stinky embrace.
He tightened his arms, wrapping almost all of Qing Mo inside his down jacket.
Qing Mo had specifically dressed up beautifully today, even doing her hair and spraying hairspray.
It was so exquisite that the wavy curves and position of every single strand of hair were in their most perfect state.
Now, with Lin Yu pulling and hugging her.
The down jacket covered her head like a blanket.
It was all ruined!
But Qing Mo wasn't unhappy about it.
Lin Yu cared about her, and it made her heart feel warm.
Being treated so roughly by Lin Yu made her feel absolutely thrilled inside...

transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day! Take one disciple: every day he gains 1 year of cultivation power. While others struggle through a year of bitter training, he gets the same just by sleeping through a single night. Take ten disciples: every day he gains 10 years of cultivation power. Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul—he breezes through all bottlenecks without lifting a finger. Take one hundred disciples: every day he gains 100 years of cultivation power. Even a Soul Transformation Venerable before him can’t survive a single blow. Take ten thousand disciples: every day he gains 10,000 years of cultivation power! With a wave of his hand, he topples empires. With a single step, he crushes the sacred grounds of the universe. ... While others fight tooth and nail for secret techniques, Lin Yan casually hands out Nascent Soul-level cultivation manuals as beginner textbooks. While others strain to find talented recruits, Lin Yan opens his doors to anyone—so long as they’re human. In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”

young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."

e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
