Under Ye Chuan's gaze, Xiao Yang grabbed onto his pant leg and then wobbled to her feet.
A petite young girl, yet she erupted with an incredibly resolute willpower. With great difficulty, she stretched out her hand, as if using the last of her strength, and firmly grasped the transformation device in Ye Chuan's hand.
"I can... I can do it."
"I..."
Seeing Xiao Yang's consciousness begin to blur, yet her hand still gripping the transformation device tightly, Ye Chuan suddenly revealed a faint smile. "Quite stubborn, aren't you."
Xiao Yang only felt the oppressive sensation around her instantly vanish, and she fell backwards as if drained of strength, finally landing on the ground with a thud. "Ah!"
But her hand still clutched the transformation device deathly tight.
Ye Chuan immediately cast a healing spell, and Xiao Yang's body recovered to its peak condition in an instant.
"I... you... Big Brother..." Xiao Yang hugged the transformation device, hesitantly standing up.
"Chuanchuan, that was too much of you. She's just a child," Luo Xi said to Ye Chuan immediately after seeing him lift the suppression of his aura.
"Yeah, yeah, bad guy Ye Chuan," Lan Xiaoke nodded in agreement beside him, like a little chick pecking at rice.
Ye Chuan didn't say much in response, merely speaking softly, "I just took a liking to this kid and didn't want her to die too soon."
"You rely on this power, but what if one day, an opponent far stronger than you appears? If you keep treating it like a game, you'll eventually die at someone else's hands," Ye Chuan said, looking at Xiao Yang.
Although Ye Chuan also relied on external power, he had many methods at his disposal, while Xiao Yang only had the transformation device.
You only have one life; you can't afford to be reckless.
"Big Brother, I understand..." Xiao Yang seemed to grasp the meaning behind Ye Chuan's actions. She hesitated for a moment. "I... I'll definitely be more careful from now on. I was too showy before. I'll definitely cherish my life."
This girl often transformed and reverted in front of others without a second thought. It was hard to guarantee she wouldn't catch the eye of someone with ill intentions.
"Give me the transformation device," Ye Chuan stretched out his hand once more.
Xiao Yang instinctively flinched, taking a few steps back and hiding the device behind her.
Seeing her wary little expression, Ye Chuan seemed amused. "Don't worry, I absolutely won't mess with it this time. Give it here."
Xiao Yang shook her head like a rattle drum. This time, no matter what Ye Chuan said, she wasn't having it.
But the next second, she felt her hand go empty. The transformation device had somehow ended up in Ye Chuan's hand.
After all, with Ye Chuan's abilities, taking something from an ordinary child was simplicity itself.
Never mind ordinary people; even the things from the Qingyun Sect were taken one by one, grabbed and gone without a second thought.
"You've really used this transformation device a lot," Ye Chuan remarked, then accessed the tech tree. He found the usage count for this device was quite high. This girl transformed at least... over ten times a day?
"Are there that many dangers in our city that you need to transform over ten times a day?" Ye Chuan asked.
Xiao Yang's face flushed bright red instantly. She hemmed and hawed, unable to get the words out, finally managing after a long struggle while poking her fingers together,
"Transforming... is really cool... and when I have nothing to do, I just transform in my room to play..."
Ye Chuan: "..."
Ye Chuan could kind of understand.
After all, some people who love tokusatsu shows, even if their toy transformation belt isn't real, will still imitate the transformation poses from TV, shouting "Transform!" or "Combine!" over and over again.
"Alright then." Ye Chuan upgraded the transformation device in his hand and then tossed it back to Xiao Yang.
"Here."
Xiao Yang caught the device and found its external design had changed dramatically. She asked hesitantly, "This is..."
"I upgraded your transformation device. It shouldn't have any problems dealing with those players now," Ye Chuan said. "You, I hope you don't forget your original intent."
"Upgraded?" Xiao Yang's eyes lit up.
"Yes."
"Thank you, Big Brother!" Xiao Yang said. "I... I'll pay you."
"No need," Ye Chuan shook his head, as he wasn't lacking for money anymore.
And how much money could this kid possibly have?
After the player incident was over, Ye Chuan also got into Wang Yanran's car.
As for that spider-dog pair, they were stuffed into the trunk. It was a bit of a squeeze, but it would do. Anyway, those two could shrink their size.
"Chuanchuan, you probably scared that girl earlier," Luo Xi said, thinking about what had just happened. She hadn't expected Ye Chuan to suddenly confront a young girl like that.
"It was just to remind her not to treat this kind of thing like a game," Ye Chuan said.
His actions might have been a bit harsh, but they would leave an impression on her.
Better that than her dying later.
This is the real world. Everyone only has one life.
...
...
Night, late at night.
After having Luo Xi and Lan Xiaoke consume spirit liquid for cultivation, Ye Chuan looked at the Adventure World on his phone and began to ponder.
"Hmm, I seem to have gotten a bit lazy lately." Ever since killing Qin Tianya, Ye Chuan had rarely entered the Adventure World, mostly just spending time with everyone in real life.
This kind of life was actually quite good. Constantly shuttling between different timelines did make Ye Chuan feel genuinely weary sometimes.
Holding Luo Xi in his arms, Ye Chuan ultimately decided not to enter the Adventure World and instead closed his eyes to sleep.
...
...
Ye Chuan had a dream.
"Chaos Heavenly Emperor, do you truly intend to shatter this world?!" In the dream, a clamorous voice rang in his ears.
"So what if I do?"
"You?! You would be a sinner against this world!"
"Sin? What of it? I insist on restarting the cycle anew, reshaping this world."
"You!!"
...
When Ye Chuan woke up, it was already past ten in the morning. He looked around and found himself lying in bed.
Luo Xi was already up, with only Lan Xiaoke still sleeping soundly like a little cat, purring softly.
"Sleeping so soundly." Ye Chuan couldn't help but reach out and poke Lan Xiaoke's cheek. She immediately frowned, made a murmuring sound in her sleep, and then simply rolled over.
"It's this late already, time to get up." Ye Chuan went in and finally managed to wake Lan Xiaoke.
"Mmm, no school or work to go to, can't I just sleep in?" Lan Xiaoke, having been woken up, pouted, looking rather displeased.
"But you need to cultivate, right?" Ye Chuan asked.
"I'm almost at the Nascent Soul stage. When will this cultivation ever end?" Lan Xiaoke sat up, fumbled around for a bit, and put on her clothes.
Turning back unintentionally, Lan Xiaoke noticed the dark circles under Ye Chuan's eyes. "Ye Chuan, didn't you sleep well last night?"
"Huh? It was alright," Ye Chuan said, instinctively touching the area around his eyes.
"Really? You look tired." As she spoke, Lan Xiaoke yawned, finally flopping down on Ye Chuan's lap like a little cat.
"I had a dream last night," Ye Chuan thought aloud.
"What dream?"
"The details aren't clear..." Ye Chuan didn't continue,
"But it seemed... very important to me."
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."
lan, the Luo family, tracked him down - along with the babies in their arms. Mo Xuan stared pensively at the paternity test results from over a dozen top institutions, both domestic and international, showing a 99.99% match between himself and the two baby girls. At 23, Mo Xuan, a doctoral student, had become the father of two three-year-old children. The kicker? The mothers weren't even the same person! He gradually realized he was being lured step by step into an elaborate trap designed by these two yandere sisters. "Be good, little Xuan. Sister's life belongs to you entirely." "Brother, if you try to run away, I'll have no choice but to tie you up." Mo Xuan: "Do whatever you want, ladies. I give up."
ose... to cooperate with the protagonist! Shen Yuan: I have a system! Protagonist: What? System: Holy crap, you're just spilling it out like that? Shen Yuan: Let's team up, we'll split the system rewards! Protagonist: Fifty-fifty split? Shen Yuan: No way! Protagonist: What!? I'm the one getting beaten up, and I don't get half? Shen Yuan: Forty-sixty split, I get forty, you get sixty! Protagonist: Deal! Big brother, come on, hit me! As long as it doesn't kill me, beat me like you mean it! Shen Yuan: Don't worry... I will definitely protect all of you! No one but me can lay a finger on you! Guard our Heaven's Chosen Ones! I'm the only one allowed to bully them!
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
