"Absolutely no mistake, it's definitely a Human Immortal!"
Bai Fan declared firmly, "I've had close contact with them, and they're certainly not high-level cultivators hiding their true powers."
"Now that's strange!"
Zeng Rentu couldn't help but ponder, then asked, "Does she have any other trump cards, or perhaps some Immortal Artifacts?"
"Well, even if she had trump cards or Immortal Artifacts, she wouldn't tell me!" Bai Fan replied.
"Let me rephrase that - have you noticed anything on her that you hadn't seen before?" Zeng Rentu inquired.
This reminder made Bai Fan's eyes light up, and he said, "Yes!"
"What is it?"
Zeng Rentu asked eagerly.
"A collection of pots, bowls, ladles, and basins!" Bai Fan answered.
"?"
"??"
Zeng Rentu's face was full of question marks. "Pots, bowls, ladles, and basins?"
"Yes, Lord Governor, exactly those. Recently, I've seen Jiang Zhi wiping and examining them every day!" Bai Fan explained.
"Pots, bowls, ladles, and basins..."
Zeng Rentu muttered to himself.
He was completely baffled by this information.
"Did you sense anything unusual about these items - any auras or energy fluctuations?" Zeng Rentu speculated, "Could it be possible that these kitchen utensils are just a disguise for some kind of divine weapons?"
"Impossible!"
"Absolutely impossible!"
Bai Fan stated firmly, "Once when she took out these items to study them, I was standing right behind her, observing carefully. A bowl was just a bowl, and a basin was just a basin!"
"Are you certain?"
"Absolutely!"
Hearing this, Zeng Rentu showed signs of relief.
He had followed Jiang Zhi for many years, and even when she was imprisoned on Dark Shadow Island, he had never underestimated her.
Especially when he learned of her return, he had been constantly wary of any trump cards she might have.
But now, looking at the situation...
He had worried for nothing.
How could someone just released from Dark Shadow Island possibly have any major trump cards?
Perhaps...
She was just blinded by hatred.
"In that case, let Jiang Zhi come at me!" Zeng Rentu sneered.
"My Lord was overthinking it. With the Lotus Lady and the Barren Continent Lord still in the Eternal Immortal Continent, how could Jiang Zhi possibly harm you?"
"Moreover, my Lord now possesses a mid-grade Immortal Artifact. Jiang Zhi can't even be mentioned in the same breath as you anymore," Bai Fan flattered.
These words...
Made Zeng Rentu lift his head slightly.
He was extremely pleased.
"Very good, you've done well this time. When you return, there will be a great reward waiting for you!"
Zeng Rentu praised.
"Yes, thank you, Lord Governor. I will continue to work hard, and if there's any news, I'll notify you immediately!"
...
Soon after.
Jiang Zhi and her group boarded a flying ship, setting off for the Eternal Immortal Continent.
While Jiang Zhi was busy with her personal matters, Gong Chen bid farewell to Yi Feng and left Dark Shadow Island on his own.
He then rushed towards Xi Ning Continent, one of the Middle Three Continents.
Before being imprisoned on Dark Shadow Island, he had been an elder in a sect there.
"I'm finally back!"
Gong Chen looked up at the mountain gate before him, filled with emotion.
He had never imagined...
That he would one day return to this place.
He entered the sect quietly without drawing attention and made his way inside.
In a side hall.
Noisy voices could be heard.
"You unfilial son!"
"Don't you have any self-awareness about what you're capable of?"
"You made a one-year promise? What nonsense!"
A middle-aged man was berating a young man with an angry face.
"Father, that woman came to break off the engagement herself. How could I endure such humiliation?" the young man shouted indignantly.
"And what can you do even if you can't endure it?" the man roared in anger. "How will you defeat her in a year?"
"When the time comes, won't it be even more embarrassing to be defeated by her in front of everyone before the engagement is broken?"
Hearing this...
The young man's eyes turned bloodshot, and he clenched his fists tightly, punching the wall repeatedly to vent his frustration.
Seeing this...
The man felt somewhat heartbroken and hurried to console the young man.
"Sigh, it's all my fault for not being able to help with your cultivation problems, which led to this..." the man sighed, suddenly appearing several years older.
"Father, I'm the useless one!"
The young man gritted his teeth in self-reproach.
"Heh, what's all this noise about? Making such a fuss!"
Just then, an abrupt voice came from outside the door.
lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts... "This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore." Qi Yuan: Ah, no one told me that my awakened ability isn't telepathy, but rather the stronger my enemies imagine me to be, the stronger I truly become. PS: Zhou Hai in the first chapter is not the protagonist.
ap a wealthy young lady? Or else I'll be eliminated by the system? Ye Feng, who awakened the Kidnapper System, originally wanted to live a peaceful life but never imagined he would become a kidnapper of young women. However, after some time, he discovered that all the girls the system ordered him to kidnap were far from ordinary. "Big brother Ye Feng~ You've kidnapped my heart, and now you're not allowed to leave me ever again~" "Ye Feng~ You kidnapped me back then, now it's my turn to capture you♡" "Little Feng, you're mine! You can only be mine!" "Ye Feng, none of them deserve you. Only I love you the most♡" ... This is madness, they've all gone mad! Wait, what? Why are all the girls I kidnapped yanderes?!

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."
