"Ye Feng, do you live here?"
After parking at the destination Ye Feng mentioned, Ah Fu looked at him in surprise. He hadn't expected someone as talented and capable as Ye Feng to live in such an old, dilapidated house.
"Hehe, what can I do? That's why I took the risk to find a well-paying job."
"You... this guy..."
Ah Fu didn't know what to say, so he just took out a stack of cash from the car compartment.
"Ah Fu, what's this...?"
"Take it to improve your life. Consider it a loan from me; your salary might not come for a few more days."
"This..."
"If you consider me a friend, take it. Don't make me lose my temper."
"Thank you, Ah Fu. I'll pay you back when I have the money."
Ye Feng hadn't expected Ah Fu to be so generous. After all, he had only just become Li Mucheng's tutor today.
"Alright, I'll be off then. See you tomorrow."
"See you tomorrow."
"Vroom!"
With the roar of the car engine, the road was left empty, leaving Ye Feng alone.
"Phew... finally finished for the day. Luckily, I didn't leave a bad impression on Li Mucheng."
As Ye Feng walked home, he tucked the cash Ah Fu had given him into his pocket.

【Compendium Progress Updated】
【Li Mucheng Progress: 20%, Progress Reward Issued】
【Reward Received: 15 Days of Life Time, Intermediate Gun Proficiency, Intermediate Driving Proficiency, Charm Permission Unlocked】
Huh?! So much!
Ye Feng initially thought the system would just give him some small token reward, but looking at the list, he was dazzled.
After skimming through it, Ye Feng focused on the Charm Permission. He had always remembered that the Charm skill in his abilities was marked with a question mark. Now, there might be a change, which made him eager to check it out.
【Name: Ye Feng】
【Age: 20】
【Skills: Cold Weapon Proficiency, Driving Proficiency, Gun Proficiency, Charm Max...】
【Items: Compendium】
......
As expected, under the Charm skill, a series of charm analyses was unlocked, with a small line of text.
(Your charm will make you smooth in interpersonal interactions, and it will have additional effects when interacting with the opposite sex.)
What... what does this mean? Why do I feel like a male succubus from the movies? Why would it have special effects on the opposite sex?
Ye Feng felt speechless. Somehow, he felt that this seemingly useful skill might become a hassle. Hopefully, it's just a misconception.
With almost a month's worth of time now, Ye Feng finally felt at ease. Just as he was about to prepare a sumptuous meal to reward himself, he heard loud argument sounds coming from the hallway outside his door.
"Who's arguing so loudly this late? Can't they let people rest?"
Ye Feng immediately stepped out, and upon seeing the source of the noise, he found it was his landlady arguing with a tenant.
"Landlady! Why is there no water?"
"How dare you ask! You've been behind on rent for two months, and you still want water? I didn't cut off your electricity, so be grateful. Pay your rent within three days, or get out!"
"......"
Ye Feng had encountered a tough opponent for the first time. Just as he was about to sneak back into his room unnoticed, the landlady spotted him.
"Hey! You, don't even think about running! You're also a month behind on rent. If you..."
Before the landlady could finish, Ye Feng took out the cash, counted it, and handed it to her.
"Is this enough?"
The landlady was momentarily stunned, then took the money and counted it. After verifying the amount, her previous temper vanished, and she smiled sweetly. "Enough, enough. You take care and rest, kid. I was wrong earlier. I'll be leaving now."
Watching the landlady's retreating figure, Ye Feng sighed and waved the money in his hand.
"Money really does work wonders."
......
"Good morning, Ah Fu."
"Good morning. Miss Li is already waiting inside. I won't disturb your lesson."
"Alright."
Ye Feng agreed and rubbed his eyes as he walked in.
As soon as he entered, he saw Li Mucheng sitting quietly at the dining table, dressed in a white dress, gazing at him.
"Miss, are you ready? We should start..."
Ye Feng's words were cut off by Li Mucheng.
"Don't you even know the basic etiquette?"
"Etiquette? What etiquette?"
Ye Feng didn't understand why Li Mucheng had snapped at him the moment he entered. Only after recalling his conversation with Ah Fu did he realize.
"Ah... Good morning, Miss."
Only after hearing Ye Feng's greeting did Li Mucheng nod slightly, took a napkin, and wiped her mouth, returning the greeting coolly. "Good morning, Teacher."
"......"
"Shall we start the lesson now, Teacher?"
"Oh... yes..."
After a familiar walk, Ye Feng brought Li Mucheng to the place where they had their lesson yesterday. Just as he was about to start talking about another plant, Li Mucheng spoke first.
"Teacher, you didn't finish explaining the usage of the medicinal herb yesterday."
"Usage? Oh, right! The usage of the life-saving herb is simple; just chew it and apply it to the wound."
"Are there any side effects?"
"Besides a slightly numb mouth after chewing the herb, there are no other effects. Alright, now I'm going to talk about this herb..."
After Ye Feng's patient explanation, Li Mucheng, who had initially been quiet, gradually started asking one or two questions, as if she was getting involved in Ye Feng's lesson.
"Alright, that's all for today. Too much at once might be hard for you to digest..."
"No! Please continue, Teacher!"
Li Mucheng suddenly interjected.
Seeing Li Mucheng like this, Ye Feng was slightly taken aback. He hadn't expected Li Mucheng to be interested in herbal medicine. However, he still waved his hand and declined.
"Miss, food is eaten bite by bite, and the road is walked step by step. I know you're very smart, but I hope you understand that life isn't just about rushing. The most important thing is to enjoy the beautiful moments, isn't it?"
"It's not that beautiful..."
"That's where you're wrong, Miss. Come with me."
Ye Feng knew that Li Mucheng still had a childlike nature, as she had just become an adult. The most important thing now was to guide her.
"Where to?"
Although Li Mucheng was full of doubts, she still followed Ye Feng without any concern for what might happen.
After passing through the woods, Ye Feng led Li Mucheng to a lush green meadow. A breeze passed by, like a gentle, warm hand caressing Li Mucheng's face.
Ye Feng took off his jacket and spread it under the shade of a tree. "Miss, if you don't mind, please sit. After all, getting your beautiful white dress dirty wouldn't be nice."
"Um..."
Li Mucheng wanted to say something but held her tongue and obediently sat down, showing none of her initial coldness.
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.”

ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
