"What do you want to do?" Xiao Weier, hiding behind Xiao Fan, asked timidly.
The stunningly beautiful woman—Little Corpse Charm—smiled coquettishly. "Little girl, come with me quietly."
Xiao Fan grew frantic. "Weier, run! I’ll hold her off!"
As he spoke, a burst of blazing pale flames erupted from his palm, hurtling toward Little Corpse Charm.
Without even waiting to see the result, he grabbed Xiao Weier’s hand and tried to flee.
But in the next moment, Little Corpse Charm swayed gracefully into their path, her jade-like fingers toying with the very same pale flames.
"The fire’s power isn’t bad, but you’re far too weak."
Snap!
With a flick of her fingers, the flames shattered into nothingness.
Xiao Fan’s expression twisted in horror. Before he could speak, Little Corpse Charm had already lost patience. Her slender, snow-white finger pointed forward, and the air rippled like water.
In that instant, Xiao Fan felt as if a towering divine mountain had crashed onto him. His bones creaked under the pressure, blood seeping from his pores. Despite his desperate resistance, he collapsed to the ground with a thud.
"Ah!"
Xiao Weier was terrified by the sight. As the treasured jewel of her family, she had never faced such brutality.
"Shh!" Little Corpse Charm appeared beside her in a flash, pressing a delicate finger against Xiao Weier’s trembling lips.
"Don’t be scared, little sister. I’m not a bad person… hehe…" Even she seemed amused by her own words.
"Now, come with me." She took Xiao Weier’s hand and began leading her away.
Xiao Weier, paralyzed with fear, offered no resistance.
"Let her go!" A voice filled with boundless fury echoed through the cave.
Little Corpse Charm turned in surprise—Xiao Fan, now drenched in blood, was struggling to rise.
"Oh? Still alive? Little brother, you must have secrets. Care to share them with me?"
"Release Weier!" Xiao Fan snarled.
Little Corpse Charm’s gaze turned icy. She despised being ignored and denied.
She was no longer the pitiful little demon once cowering in the Demon Suppression Prison.
Now, she stood second only to one, a Quasi-Emperor, the most beautiful woman in the world.
And her man—the strongest in existence, leader of the greatest sect, whose word was law.
With such privilege, she believed the world existed to please her. Getting her way was her divine right.
With a flick of her finger, she prepared to end Xiao Fan’s life.
But then, Xiao Weier—who had seemed so helpless—clung to her arm, tears streaming. "Please, don’t kill him! I’ll go with you!"
Little Corpse Charm gently wiped away her tears, but her eyes gleamed dangerously. "Little sister, you misunderstand. You’re in no position to bargain."
Xiao Weier, though trembling, stood firm.
"I don’t know why the Heavenly Demon Sect wants me, but my Supreme Holy Body must be valuable. If you refuse, I’ll destroy it—you’ll never get what you want!"
"Really?" Little Corpse Charm smirked, then tapped Xiao Weier’s chest. An invisible seal locked her divine energy away.
"You—!"
Xiao Weier paled, her body shaking violently as tears fell uncontrollably.
"You evil woman… sob…"
Before she could finish, Little Corpse Charm pinched her soft cheeks, distorting her face and forcing her lips into a pout.
"Now, little sister, what else can you threaten me with? Nothing? Then watch closely as your beloved dies before your eyes!"
Under the horrified gazes of Xiao Weier and Xiao Fan, a brilliant crimson light shot from her fingertip.
But it struck empty air—Xiao Fan had vanished without a trace.
Little Corpse Charm’s eyes narrowed. "Who dares interfere with the Heavenly Demon Sect? Show yourself!"
Silence.
Her beautiful face darkened.
"Whoever you are, the Heavenly Demon Sect will hunt you to the ends of the earth!"
With that, she whisked Xiao Weier away.

Yin Nether Domain, Heavenly Demon Sect Headquarters.
"Master~ Wuwu… someone bullied me!"
Little Corpse Charm burst into the grand hall, ignoring the assembled Supreme Elders, and threw herself into Gu Qingfeng’s lap.
Her "assets" seemed to have strategically expanded for the occasion.
Gu Qingfeng’s rage erupted. "What?! Someone in the Cangming Realm dares touch my woman? Do they have a death wish?
"Who?!
"Name, origin, faction, family members—I’ll scramble their eggs like they’re breakfast!"
Little Corpse Charm sniffled dramatically. "Master, I was gathering special physiques for you when I found the Supreme Holy Body. But then…"
She embellished the tale with tears.
Gu Qingfeng frowned. Vanishing under a Quasi-Emperor’s nose without a trace? Even he couldn’t do that cleanly.
His teleportation array left traces—undetectable to weaklings, but not to peers.
No spatial ripples, no dao marks, nothing. Only one person came to mind.
Old Ghost.
His time-stopping trick could pull it off.
But why save Xiao Fan?
A nobody, a servant, with a heavenly sweetheart, surviving against a Quasi-Emperor…
This reeks of trouble.

A Void Realm.
Xiao Fan stared in terror at the lecherous old beggar before him.
"Who are you? Where is this?"
Old Ghost grinned. "Heh heh… Flame Heaven Emperor, long time no see!"
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.
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."
m back to his original world. In the end, he realized he had overthought things. [Hey, why is Shen Manni, the female lead, acting strange? Shouldn't she be fawning over the male lead at this point?] [Zhou Qiaoqiao, are you sick? Weren't you supposed to break off your engagement today?] [Damn it! An Youyi, please do your job as an undercover agent and sell my information to the protagonist, you idiot!] ... At this moment, Xu Mo himself didn't know that these female leads had already heard his inner thoughts. Then they decided not to play by the rules. Xu Mo: Please respect my profession as the big villain!
