As soon as Luo Hao saw Chen Changsheng's teasing expression, she knew his mind had wandered to the gutter.
However, she had no intention of arguing. She merely nodded silently, tacitly accepting Chen Changsheng's words.
She followed him all the way to a secluded hot spring courtyard.
"Remember to come to my room after you finish washing up. I will help you check the issue with your aptitude."
After saying this, Chen Changsheng drifted away, leaving Luo Hao staring at the hot spring, which seemed to exude a pink, romantic aura, lost in deep thought.
Is this really a proper hot spring?
...
Chen Changsheng did not shamelessly follow her into the hot spring.
Although the hot spring was originally built by him and the Mu Binger sisters to spice things up.
Returning to the room he hadn't been to in a long time, he noticed that all traces of his previous battle with Lu Linger had been cleaned up. The entire room was incredibly tidy.
"That little girl Linger."
It should be known that only he and his wives lived in the entire backyard; there were no servants or maids.
Obviously, Lu Linger had done all this.
Even though these were just trivial matters, in his eyes, it showed that Lu Linger had truly integrated into this home.
Nodding in satisfaction, he casually sat cross-legged on the bed and immersed his mind into the chat group.
As soon as he entered, he saw 999+ unread messages.
Dead memories suddenly surfaced in his mind, making him feel as if he had returned to his past life.
After a long day of work and returning home, he used to rely on his goofy group chat friends to relieve his physical and mental fatigue.
Curious, he scrolled up through the chat group's messages.
But when he saw Gu Xiaoxiao frantically roasting his actions in the chat, his face darkened, and his initial curiosity vanished without a trace.
Reading further down, he found a very familiar debate sparked by Gu Xiaoxiao and the other members regarding Chen Changsheng having multiple wives.
Led by the trio of Gu Xiaoxiao, Yun Yun, and Eriri.
Joined by all the other female members except Esdeath and Takanashi Rikka.
They formed the Monogamy Faction, believing that a man should be devoted to only one woman.
Then there was Ying Zheng, the lone supporter of the Harem Faction.
Zhang Xiaofan and Takanashi Rikka made up the shivering Newbie Faction.
And finally, the sole representative of the Extreme Faction, Esdeath, who felt that Ying Zheng's Harem Faction was still too conservative.
The most outrageous part was that Ying Zheng, whom he thought would be overwhelmed, actually held the absolute upper hand in the debate.
From the labor force of a small family to the population needs of a nation, he quoted classics and spoke eloquently.
He argued the various benefits of a man having three wives and four concubines.
He sounded exactly like those omniscient political gurus from the chat groups in Chen Changsheng's past life.
Gu Xiaoxiao and the other women knew that many of Ying Zheng's points were flawed, but they simply could not find the words to refute him and were left speechless.
Coupled with Esdeath occasionally chiming in from the sidelines with remarks like "The strong should dominate everything."
The atmosphere in the group briefly became extremely tense.
Chen Changsheng found it amusing and read all the way to the latest messages.
[Stumbled Into a High-Tier Match: @Emperor Through the Ages, no matter how you argue, I, Gu Xiaoxiao, am ashamed to associate with harem men!]
[Kashiwagi Eri: That is right, that is right! Pure love warriors are invincible!]
[Innate Wife-Taking Holy Body sent a red packet, everyone hurry and grab it.]
[Gu Xiaoxiao grabbed a red packet and received: Soul-Snatching Bell * 1]
[Kashiwagi Eri grabbed...]
...
[Stumbled Into a High-Tier Match: Actually, for a man like the big boss, I think having a harem is no big deal.]
[Kashiwagi Eri: ...]
[Emperor Through the Ages: ...]
The group members felt a wave of speechlessness as they watched their ringleader instantly switch sides after claiming the red packet.
Especially Yun Yun and the other women who had been arguing against Ying Zheng alongside Gu Xiaoxiao; they once again realized just how flexible Gu Xiaoxiao's bottom line truly was.
She was the one who had started the whole topic in the first place.
Watching Gu Xiaoxiao's sudden betrayal, Ying Zheng shook his head helplessly.
Was this the kind of person he had just been debating with?
However, upon looking at the magical artifact called the Divine Fire Cover that had suddenly appeared in his hands earlier, he could understand why Gu Xiaoxiao had acted so shamelessly.
Divine Fire Cover: Tier-one magical artifact. Uploading it to the mall grants 10,000 points.
According to Gu Xiaoxiao's previous explanation about physical items, this meant the artifact's value in the mall was 20,000 points.
This showed just how precious this magical artifact was.
Yet, Mr. Chen Changsheng had casually handed one out to everyone.
Just then, Ying Zheng suddenly noticed that Chen Changsheng had tagged him in the group.
[Innate Wife-Taking Holy Body: @Emperor Through the Ages, never mind them, but Brother Zheng, as the King of Qin, do you not have any state affairs to handle? To think you spent so much time arguing with them here.]
[Emperor Through the Ages: Zheng absolutely cannot accept the title of Brother Zheng from you, sir. As for Qin's state affairs... according to the document "Five Thousand Years of Chinese History," Zheng is still in his youth. Currently, the court affairs of Qin are controlled by the Prime Minister Lu Buwei, which is why Zheng has so much free time.]
[Innate Wife-Taking Holy Body: Oh come on, we are all group members, there is no need to be so polite in the chat group, right? I will call you Brother Zheng, and you can call me Brother Chen or Brother Changsheng.]
[Stumbled Into a High-Tier Match: @Innate Wife-Taking Holy Body, then can I call you Brother Changsheng?]
[Innate Wife-Taking Holy Body: No.]
[Stumbled Into a High-Tier Match: ...]
[Innate Wife-Taking Holy Body: Then you are in danger right now, Brother Zheng. Although you did succeed in history, that is just a piece of history and might not completely match the world you are in.]
[Emperor Through the Ages: Thank you for the reminder, sir. Zheng will be careful.]
Actually, Ying Zheng had already realized this himself. That "Five Thousand Years of Chinese History" had indeed benefited him greatly.
However, he also noticed significant discrepancies between it and his own world.
For example, his current personal sword master was named Ge Nie.
Under Ge Nie's tutelage, he had already reached the Innate realm of martial arts, which was evaluated as Tier One in the chat group.
In this world, martial arts were divided into Postnatal, Innate, Grandmaster, and Great Grandmaster.
The leaders of the Hundred Schools of Thought were at least Grandmasters at their weakest, possessing personal strength capable of taking on a hundred men. The leaders of the most top-tier schools, such as the Yin-Yang School and the Daoist School, had even reached the Great Grandmaster realm, capable of taking on a thousand men.
And this "taking on a thousand" did not refer to ordinary mortals, but the most elite soldiers of the various nations.
Therefore, Ying Zheng did not entirely trust the records in the book.
The Ying Zheng in the book indeed became the Emperor Through the Ages, but whether he could achieve the same remained unknown.
"However, now that I have joined this miraculous chat group, it is not impossible for Zheng to give it a try and lead Great Qin to heights even greater than those in the book."
Looking at the small and exquisite Divine Fire Cover in his hands, Ying Zheng's heart was filled with confidence.
Just moments ago, he had already refined the Divine Fire Cover using his own Innate true qi.
After refining it, he discovered the terrifying aspect of the magical artifact in his hands.
He could sense that as long as he guided it with his true qi, he could release all the divine fire stored within the Divine Fire Cover, incinerating absolutely everything in its path.
Such power was impossible to resist. Let alone a Grandmaster, even a Great Grandmaster would be completely incapable of withstanding it.
After all, no matter how formidable a Great Grandmaster might be, they were still bound by their mortal flesh and blood.
Ying Zheng even suspected that a Great Grandmaster's power rating within the chat group might not even reach Tier Two.

ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!
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.”

Recharge my vitality!” Boom! His vitality broke a hundred points, shattering the limits of the human body! “Borrow ten thousand bucks! Recharge my combat skills!” Boom! A basic punching technique so common it was everywhere instantly maxed out, revealing the ultimate assassination technique of Five Elements Unity—Inner Force! When a rich kid hired assassins for a midnight ambush, aiming to break both of his legs, they instead ran headfirst into a monster—a human-shaped tyrannosaur, brimming with dragon-like vitality. With just two fingers, Su Yu snapped a steel staff reinforced with alloy. Staring at the killer’s stash of stolen cash—a staggering quarter-million dollars—he showed a corporate-sincere smile: “Thanks for the pre-exam gift pack, Mr. Zhao! I’m gonna go re-invest this!” Three days later, at the National Martial Arts College Entrance Exam, while everyone else struggled just to reach the passing line, Su Yu threw a single punch—and more than a thousand vitality points literally detonated the entire arena!
