Under the stern gaze of the Qingshan Patriarch, Yin Xiong finally stammered out the whole story.
"This is outrageous, simply outrageous!"
Upon hearing Yin Xiong's account, the Qingshan Patriarch's rage boiled over. With a sweep of his palm, a nearby building was instantly razed to the ground.
"Xue'er."
"Yes, master."
"Notify Zhu Yun and the other elders to gather at the Qingshan Hall immediately."
"Understood!"
Luo Lanxue dared not delay. Her graceful figure flickered and in an instant she was gone.
"Return to the town below the mountain at once, find out who exactly dared commit such audacity." The Qingshan Patriarch instructed Yin Xiong.
"Yes, Qingshan master."
Yin Xiong didn't even pause for a sip of water before rushing back down the mountain with two subordinates.
At the Qingshan Hall.
The Qingshan Patriarch sat grim-faced at the head of the hall.
At the lower seats, Zhu Yun, Luo Lanxue and the other elders all had their heads lowered with solemn expressions.
An aura of overwhelming pressure filled the hall, leaving the weaker cultivators gasping for breath.
"Master, this matter is no small thing." Luo Lanxue stepped forward and urgently analyzed, "From uncle's account, the master is already extremely angry over this incident."
"Sister speaks correctly." The youthful Yin Luo Li also stepped forward, face full of fury. "The master has shown our Qingshan Sect great benevolence, yet his disciple was nearly killed on our sect's territory. We must provide an explanation to satisfy the master over this matter."
"Precisely. The master himself did not act, but notified the Baofeng Commerce to make his intentions clear - he expects us to provide an account." Sect leader Zhu Yun added gravely, "Therefore we must treat this matter with utmost prudence and ensure the master's satisfaction. Otherwise, if the master is forced to act personally..." He shook his head, not daring to continue that train of thought.
"So Grand Master, you must decide how to proceed." Luo Lanxue looked to the Qingshan Patriarch at the head in solemn urgency.
"Hmph!"
The Qingshan Patriarch's expression was stormy as he slammed his palm down, instantly pulverizing the stone table beside him.
"No matter who dared attack young master Qing, none shall escape."
His voice boomed like a bell throughout the hall.
"Transmit my command."
"Yes!"
"Activate the Sect-Protecting Grand Formation, notify the Twelve Elders and Eighteen Guardians. Dispatch the Thirty-Six Heavenly Stars and Seventy-Two Earthly Fiends, along with all one hundred and eight branch disciples without exception. Zhu Yun will lead them out of the mountain!"
"I will make those who angered the master regret coming into this world."
Shock rippled through the hall at the Qingshan Patriarch's words.
Even in times of major sect wars, such a battle formation was unprecedented.
But it was only expected - if the Patriarch could not quell that person's anger, the Qingshan Sect would likely cease to exist.
"Understood!"
Deafening shouts echoed within the Qingshan Hall. Streaks of light shot out as cultivators streamed into the sky, trailing waves of energy.
The one hundred and eight branch disciples of Qingshan mobilized, marching directly towards Pingjiang City, their thundering footsteps shaking the earth.
At the same time, the Thirty-Six Heavenly Stars and Seventy-Two Earthly Fiends took to the skies mounted on flying demonic beasts, casting massive shadows over the land as they howled towards Pingjiang City.
Led by Zhu Yun, the Twelve Elders and Eighteen Guardians stepped on air, emanating tremendous pressure as they streaked forth with astonishing speed like meteors falling to earth!
In Pingjiang City, the Baofeng Commerce ground to a halt as all shops shut their doors. Countless spies were dispatched.
Within half an hour, a carrier pigeon delivered a letter from the Baofeng Commerce to the Qingshan Patriarch's hand.
As he read the note, killing intent erupted from his eyes.
"Pingjiang Commerce."
"Die!"
At his command, the massive Qingshan forces mobilized towards the Pingjiang Commerce's base.
In that moment, the skies over Pingjiang City suddenly changed.

close your eyes and open them again, only to find yourself transmigrated into the role of a villainous male supporting character. Readers familiar with urban wish-fulfillment novels know that it is only through the relentless antics of the villainous male supporting character that the plot between the male and female leads can progress. As the villainous male supporting character, Long Aotian not only has to bully the female lead, harass the second female lead, and flirt with the third female lead, but he also has to go all out to antagonize the male lead. In the end, when his body is discovered, he is still clutching half a moldy fried dough stick in his hand. Fully aware of the plot, Long Aotian is determined to change his fate, starting with the female lead! In the beginning, the female lead lacks confidence: "Big brother, I hope I didn't scare you?" In the middle, the female lead treads carefully: "Brother Long, please don't hit me, okay?" Later on, the female lead becomes coquettishly clingy: "Aotian, it's time to pay the 'public grain' tonight." Long Aotian's legs go weak, and he feels like crying: "I taught you to be thick-skinned, not shameless!"

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!

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.”

for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
