"Lu Zun, as you've seen, if we hadn't expelled your son from the sect, how would our sect have received such blessings today?" Fang Jin said, "Otherwise, forget about these blessings—our sect might have been suppressed to unimaginable depths."
"You..."
Lu Zun clenched his fists tightly, hanging his head in silence.
"Ah!"
Seeing this, Fang Jin came over and patted Lu Zun's shoulder. "There's no other way. It's all for the sect's benefit, so I'm afraid we'll have to trouble you further."
"What do you mean?"
Lu Zun raised his head.
"Since the Continent Lord has favored us by entrusting the crystal mines to our Great Transformation Sect, we should do even better," Fang Jin said, looking up. "So, I'm afraid I must ask you to leave the Great Transformation Sect as well!"
"You..."
Lu Zun's eyes immediately turned red.
"I, Lu Zun, have been with the Great Transformation Sect since childhood, contributing countless merits. Not only did I lose a son, but I've also suffered eight severe injuries and countless minor ones for the sect, leaving me with chronic ailments."
"Even my son Chong's foundation problems were caused by injuries sustained while carrying out sect missions in his early years."
"You could say our entire family has given our lives to the Great Transformation Sect, yet we never imagined we'd end up like this."
"I have nothing more to say."
Lu Zun removed the Great Transformation Sect's emblem from his clothes and walked out of the hall, his figure dejected.
"Hahaha..."
Behind him came mocking laughter and excitement about the invitation from the Continent Lord's mansion.
Not a single person spared a sympathetic glance for this old man who had given everything to the Great Transformation Sect.
After Fang Jin and the others made their preparations,
Led by Fang Jin, a group of elders changed into formal new clothes and set off for the Xining Immortal Continent with beaming faces.
Fang Jin's group moved so quickly through the air their feet could have sparked fire, and finally, after a day, they arrived outside the Xining Immortal Continent Palace.
As the saying goes, joy makes one's spirit soar.
Fang Jin's face was glowing with happiness.
He led the group of elders, all wearing bright smiles, toward the Xining Immortal Continent Palace.
Several dedicated reception staff politely led them into the guest hall.
"Please wait a moment, I'll notify the Continent Lord right away."
"Very good, very good!"
Fang Jin responded politely, and after the staff left, he couldn't help but sit down in the grand chair, patting it while saying joyfully, "Look, look! This is truly the Continent Lord's palace—even the wood of these chairs is extraordinary."
"Indeed, our Great Transformation Sect has finally reached its peak."
"When has the Continent Lord's palace ever been so courteous to any sect?"
"Exactly! It seems the Continent Lord is truly a man of character who appreciates those who know how to adapt."
"Haha..."
The elders discussed enthusiastically.
"Eh!"
Just then, one of the elders, looking through the main door, seemed to notice something and couldn't help but exclaim softly.
"What's wrong?"
Fang Jin and the others asked.
"That person squatting on the ground, doesn't he look like Lu Chong?"
The elder rubbed his eyes and couldn't help asking.
Hearing this,
Everyone couldn't help but look over, and they were immediately shocked.
"It really does look like Lu Chong!"
"How could he be here? Shouldn't he be on Dark Shadow Island?"
"Indeed, this is the Continent Lord's palace—how could he be here!"
Everyone wore expressions of disbelief.
"Let's go take a look. Maybe the Heavenly Immortal Palace caught the wrong person, letting the real culprit roam free," one of the elders couldn't help saying.
"Maybe we shouldn't. After all, he's inside the Continent Lord's palace. What if he's a guest of the Continent Lord?" another elder asked.
"What are you thinking?"
"How could a worthless person like Lu Chong be a guest of the Continent Lord?" that elder said disdainfully. "Besides, look at him squatting there cleaning waste buckets—at most he's just doing menial work at the Continent Lord's palace."
"But this still doesn't make sense. Lu Chong should be imprisoned on Dark Shadow Island, so how did he end up here doing menial work?"
"That's exactly what makes this suspicious," that elder said. "I'm beginning to suspect that Lu Chong and his father might have found someone to take their place to avoid Dark Shadow Island."
"This is outrageous!"
"This would be deceiving the Continent Lord's palace and the Heavenly Immortal Palace."
"Indeed, if this turns out to be true, our Great Transformation Sect will surely be implicated."
Everyone became angry.
"Let's go check it out."
Fang Jin organized his thoughts and agreed with that elder's words.
Otherwise, there was no way to explain why Lu Chong would appear here.
If things were really as they suspected, he would have to take action—he couldn't let Lu Chong ruin their chances at the crystal mine rights.
The group advanced menacingly toward Lu Chong.
and couldn't return to the real world. Finally, I gave up and decided to go with the flow, only to discover that writing a diary could make me stronger. Since no one could read it, Su Luo wrote freely, daring to pen anything and everything. Female Lead #1: "Not bad. This diary helped me steal all the protagonist's opportunities. I just want to get stronger." Female Lead #2: "I don’t care about reaching the peak of the cultivation world. Right now, I just want to enjoy the chaos." Female Lead #3: "What? Everyone around me is a spy? I’m the Joker Demon Lord?" ... It’s so strange. Why is the plot completely off track, yet the ending remains the same? Are you all just messing with me?!
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
【Prologue: The Beginning of It All – Use holy water to heal the saintess tainted by demonic energy, then converse with her.】 Shen Nian stared at his older sister sipping yogurt, lost in thought. So you’re telling me my sister is the saintess, and yogurt is the holy water? 【Main Quest 1: Brave Youth, Become an Adventurer! Reward: Rookie Adventurer Title.】 【Side Quest 1: Find the Adorable Kitty! Reward: 1000 Gold Coins.】 Shen Nian: "Wait, I’m a high school senior here—did some guy who got isekai’d accidentally bind his system to me?" Hold on, completing quests gives gold rewards? Titles even boost stats? Is this for real? (A lighthearted, absurd campus comedy—not a revenge power fantasy.)
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.”
