You f%#@!
Zeus wanted to cry but had no tears.
Didn't you tell me to hand over my famous divine artifact?
Isn't this Lightning Spear in my hand my strongest divine artifact?
This is just what it looks like! The lightning on it is the artifact's special effect!
Do you have any idea?
But no matter how bitter he felt, he didn't dare show it, and could only hurriedly speak.
"Unknown powerhouse, my Lightning Spear naturally looks like this."
"Hmm? Are you trying to bluff me?"
Saying that, Chen Changsheng reached out and grabbed the Lightning Spear from Zeus's hand. The next moment, he actually grabbed the Lightning Spear with ease. He then felt that as he held it, even without doing anything, the surging lightning on it didn't disappear, and he felt he could use the power of lightning too.
It really is.
Chen Changsheng muttered in his heart, but on the surface, he looked at Zeus without the slightest hint of apology.
"Your power to control lightning doesn't come from this Lightning Spear, does it?"
"Uh, no, it doesn't."
"Even without the Lightning Spear, I can still control lightning. It's just that when I use the Lightning Spear, the power of the lightning is much stronger."
Just as Zeus finished speaking, he saw Chen Changsheng nod in satisfaction.
"Alright, it seems I misunderstood you earlier. Sorry about that. However, I'll be borrowing this Lightning Spear for a bit. You don't have a problem with that, right?"
Zeus hurriedly nodded. "No... no problem."
Even if he did have a problem, he wouldn't dare say it!
The gap in strength between them was visibly massive. He had only ever felt this kind of pressure from those Transcendents. How could he dare to resist?
Ultimately, they, the Greek Gods, had been suppressed for so many years that they were already used to it.
And to the current him, the Lightning Spear's usefulness was dispensable.
Against the weak, he didn't need the Lightning Spear; his God King level strength was enough.
Against the strong, even with the Lightning Spear in hand, he would still be easily and brutally beaten like this time.
So! He had already acted like a coward in front of the Transcendents for so many years anyway, one more time wouldn't make a difference.
It was just that he inexplicably felt incredibly stifled in his heart.
Although the other Transcendents bullied him, at least they didn't rob him of his things. This newly appeared unfamiliar Transcendent not only bullied him but also robbed him of his divine artifact. He absolutely couldn't stand it.
As for Chen Changsheng saying he was borrowing it?
Once this thing was borrowed, there was no way it would ever be returned.
"Forget it, I'll just consider myself unlucky this time. I'll find the Cyclopes to forge a new Lightning Spear another day."
Zeus thought to himself, then tossed the matter of the Lightning Spear to the back of his mind. He decided that once Chen Changsheng left, he would hide his identity and go to the mortal realm to experience life a bit and properly vent his frustrations.
Chen Changsheng naturally didn't know what Zeus was thinking. Seeing Zeus being so honest, he continued speaking.
"Old God King, I reckon one divine artifact might not be enough. Why don't you gather your major gods and have them deliver some of their own famous divine artifacts? You wouldn't refuse me, right?"
Zeus: "..."
Can I say no?
Do I dare say no?
Do you have no idea how much your big slaps hurt a god?
Moreover, why are you taking everything you can get? We don't even have a grudge, do we?
However, no matter how aggrieved he felt inside, he only dared to nod on the surface.
Anyway, his own divine artifact had been robbed. He might as well have Hera and the others come out and get robbed too, so he would feel a bit more balanced in his heart.
Thinking this, Zeus directly used his authority to summon all the major gods of Greece.
Hera: "Zeus, why did you suddenly call me out?"
Slap—
"Hand over your divine artifact."
Hera: "???"
The stunningly beautiful mature woman, Hera, looked at Chen Changsheng's outstretched hand with a bewildered face. She then looked at Zeus, only to see Zeus turn his head away, avoiding her gaze.
Seeing this scene, how could she not know that she had been screwed over by Zeus?
But since even Zeus didn't dare to resist, she naturally didn't dare either. She could only obediently hand over her divine artifact.
And then...
Hestia: "Zeus, you smelly old geezer..."
Slap—
...
Poseidon: "Zeus, you were looking for me..."
Slap—
...
Apollo...
Athena...
Ares...
Artemis...
...
Soon, the Twelve Major Gods of Greece all had blood trickling from the corners of their mouths, looking resentfully at Zeus, who refused to meet their eyes.
As for their famous divine artifacts, they had all been snatched away by Chen Changsheng.
Thinking of their precious treasures, the Twelve Major Gods looked at Zeus with eyes that wished they could swallow him alive. However, because Chen Changsheng, this great demon, was still here, they could only suppress the anger in their hearts, not daring to say or do anything.
As for Chen Changsheng, he was currently taking turns playing with the various highly-visual-effect divine artifacts floating in front of him. He thought to himself, getting so many divine artifacts at once should satisfy the main body's requirements, right?
Sigh, being a clone is truly a life of toil. Not only do I have to help the main body teach his harem how to cultivate, but I also have to do this kind of offending work.
Fortunately, I'm using the main body's appearance, so it's the main body who offended them.
Thinking this, Chen Changsheng ignored the Twelve Major Gods of Greece who were looking at Zeus with strange expressions. He directly put away these divine artifacts and then vanished from above the Greek pantheon.
Once they confirmed that Chen Changsheng had truly left, Ares was the first who couldn't hold back and jumped out.
"Old man Zeus! Come here and die!!!"
Following Ares's actions, the other major gods also rushed toward Zeus one after another.
This old thing had occupied the toilet without doing his business for so many years, only knowing how to go out and look for women every day. Yet, when encountering this kind of awful mess, he thought of them first. He simply didn't deserve to rule the Greek pantheon. It was time for this Divine Realm to get a new God King.
Seeing this, how could Zeus dare to stay any longer? He hurriedly transformed into a bolt of lightning and disappeared from his spot.
Now, because of his shady maneuver, the anger of the Twelve Major Gods had all been transferred onto him. It seemed he wouldn't be able to return home for a short while, and could only go to the mortal world to find his old lovers.
Sigh, my life is so bitter.
Zeus sighed in his heart as he fled.
He had already thrown the previous matter to the back of his mind, leaving only the graceful figures of his lovers in his head.
Meanwhile, outside the Greek Divine Realm, the major gods cursed in unison.
"Bastard!"
"Old pervert!"
"On my name as a god, I curse him to die on a woman's belly!"
"I want to curse him too!"
"..."
...
Chen Changsheng himself didn't know how the Greek gods were seething with resentment after he left, and even if he did know, he wouldn't care.
At this time, he had already returned to Rikka's home and tossed a casually crafted storage ring to Rikka.
"Rikka, the things are ready."
Hearing this, Rikka initially couldn't quite believe it.
"So fast?"
However, thinking that although the Chen Changsheng in front of her was only a mental energy clone, his strength was at the Nascent Soul level—which would be considered a Tier 3 level in the chat group—she quickly believed him.
Entering the chat group once more and seeing that the members were no longer discussing her recent slip of the tongue, Rikka breathed a quiet sigh of relief and sent out the storage ring.
[Tyrant's Eye User: @Innate Wife-Taking Physique, Brother Changsheng, the item you wanted has arrived.]
[Innate Wife-Taking Physique: Thanks, Rikka.]
[Tyrant's Eye User: Ehehe, I didn't really do much, actually.]
Rikka scratched her head a bit sheepishly, but upon realizing that Chen Changsheng hadn't replied to her again in the group, she couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
...
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.
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!
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.”
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."
