"Boss, it seems like they have no interest at all!" one person said disappointedly.
"Yeah, what should we do? We finally found five experts. If they could join us, it would greatly lighten our burden," another added. "When we came, several seniors were already severely eroded by the dark energy from guarding for so long. I’m afraid they won’t last much longer."
At this, everyone’s expressions darkened.
"Forget it, this isn’t something anyone can just decide to do on a whim."
Chen Ming sighed and said, "We’ve already explained the situation to them. Consider it planting a seed. Next time we meet, there’s still a chance."
"Overall, this trip has been successful. At least we’ve eliminated the scourge of the Demon Shadow. The pressure on the Boundary Wall is immense, so we shouldn’t linger here. Let’s hurry back."
Everyone nodded.
"Fellow immortals, we shall take our leave now."
After cupping their hands in farewell, the eight figures transformed into streaks of light and swiftly departed.
"Tsk!"
"How boring!"
After the eight left, the five sat on the steps, with Lu Benwei, the leader, letting out a long sigh.
"The girls here are so shallow. They only care about my money. As you said, a dashing and handsome guy like me—why hasn’t anyone thrown themselves at me yet?"
"Then, Big Bro, let’s go somewhere else!" Doggo shouted.
"Yeah, let’s change locations," Night Wind chimed in. "Let’s find a place where the girls aren’t so shallow, a place where Big Bro can find true love."
But saying it was one thing.
When it came to deciding where to go, the brothers were stumped.
"Ah, damn it, I’ve got it!"
Just as everyone was struggling to come up with an idea, Spirit King suddenly slapped his thigh and floated up, shouting, "Big Bro, I know a place you’ll definitely love!"
"Oh?"
Immediately, Lu Benwei and the others turned their gazes toward Spirit King.
"Haha, do you remember what those guys said earlier about the Eight Great Realms?"
Spirit King excitedly explained, "Among these eight realms, there’s one called the Yue Realm!"
"The Yue Realm is truly a fantastic place. The people there have great taste, especially the ladies. When guys like us go there, especially Big Bro, they’ll politely call us ‘handsome’!"
"Handsome?"
This title instantly perked up the previously listless Lu Benwei.
"Really? There’s such a place?"
Lu Benwei asked.
"Bro, would I lie to you?"
Spirit King hurriedly explained, "Back when I wasn’t a spirit yet and was still a powerhouse in the Immortal Realm—though not as strong as I am now—I couldn’t resist going to the Yue Realm after hearing the legends."
"That place lives up to its reputation!"
"Amidst the chorus of ladies calling me ‘handsome,’ if my Dao Heart hadn’t been strong enough, I would’ve completely lost myself!"
Spirit King said with emotion, "So, if we go to the Yue Realm, Big Bro, you’ll definitely find your true love."
Hearing this, Doggo and the others’ eyes lit up, and they turned to Lu Benwei, shouting, "Bro, let’s go to the Yue Realm and have some fun!"
"Yeah, yeah, I also want to be called ‘handsome’ by the ladies."
Night Wind and Centipede eagerly chimed in.
However, as soon as they finished speaking, they saw Lu Benwei tear through space, with one foot already in the Yue Realm.
"Damn, Bro’s even more impatient than us."
"Bro, wait for us!"
Doggo and the others hurriedly followed...
...
To prevent chaos, the turmoil in the Heavenly Immortal Palace was completely sealed off.
Thus, it didn’t cause much disturbance across the greater Immortal Realm.
So, Yi Feng didn’t know about it, and even if he did, he wouldn’t care. After a fruitless trip to the Heavenly Array Immortal Continent, he returned to Dark Shadow Island.
The reason he came back?
Well, he was broke.
But just then.
A system notification suddenly rang in his mind.
"Congratulations, host, for achieving an Immortal Realm accomplishment."
"Ding!"
"The system is upgrading."
"System upgrade at 1%..."
"System upgrade at 10%..."
"System upgrade at 50%..."
"Achieved an Immortal Realm accomplishment? What accomplishment? And it triggered a system upgrade?"
Yi Feng was completely baffled.
In his mind, the system’s voice continued.
"System upgrade at 99%..."
"System upgrade at 100%..."
"System upgrade complete."
"Host rewarded with a 50-level cultivation boost!"
"Holy crap!"
Hearing this, Yi Feng sprang up from his recliner.
He spread his hands, utterly incredulous.
Damn system.
It actually boosted him by fifty levels in one go?
d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!
u serious?" Chen Feng watched helplessly as his painstakingly trained disciple, fresh off a championship victory, publicly abandoned him. "You had your chance, but you didn’t appreciate it. Now, face the consequences of your choice!" Chen Feng possessed the "Master System," a treasure trove of supreme martial arts techniques, capable of molding ordinary individuals into peerless prodigies. "Legs like yours? A shame not to train in the Crippling Kick." "Ever heard of a palm strike that descends from the heavens?" "Auntie! I see extraordinary bone structure in you—a martial arts prodigy, one in ten thousand." The once-defiant senior disciple, now watching her juniors rise to fame one after another, dominating the internet, was consumed by endless regret.
