But just as the few of them were bickering, the female voice that had originally been crying for help suddenly stopped, turning into a string of questioning.
Why? Why would you treat me like this? What exactly did I do wrong...
The mournful voice sent a chill down the spines of everyone present.
This thing won't move, so there's no need to waste energy on it... Fang Zhiyi lifted his leg and walked away.
The blood-red coffin lay there quietly, completely devoid of sound.
Captain, is it really okay if we don't deal with it? Zhou Hao asked.
Fang Zhiyi shook his head. As long as you don't provoke this kind of thing, there usually isn't a problem. He pondered his impression of this entity. Anomalies were divided into several types; some anomalies purely existed to eat people, while others fed on human emotions.
Just as the group was leaving, the coffin emitted a sound once again. A female voice sang an unknown ballad.
The moon is bright, rowing the oars...
A flash of murderous intent crossed Fang Zhiyi's eyes. The next moment, everyone was stunned. They had clearly walked back the way they came, yet the red coffin unexpectedly appeared before their eyes once again.
Li Fei clamored, What's going on? We obviously walked in that direction... He pointed to the other side of the coffin.
However, everyone had returned to the front of the coffin. Before them was still that same coffin.
Did we fall into a trap? Shen Yue was a bit nervous. Some anomalies could affect human hearing and perception. Given the current situation, this was the only plausible guess.
Ghost wall. Fang Zhiyi stared at the coffin in front of him, as if trying to see right through it.
Ghost wall? What the hell, I don't believe this... Li Fei turned around and walked back. Fang Zhiyi did not stop him.
But in just a moment, he appeared on the other side of the coffin, staring dumbfounded at Fang Zhiyi and the others on this side.
Captain, it looks like we have no choice but to fight! Shen Yue tightened her grip on the long sword in her hand, and the other team members also drew their respective weapons. Against a high-level anomaly, they had almost no chance of winning.
But right now, the anomaly in front of them had no intention of letting them leave.
Yet, from inside the coffin, the female voice continued to sing the ballad mournfully. Aside from that, there was no other reaction.
The eastern house brings out white silk, the western house weaves a silken gown...
She actually sings pretty well. Li Fei still could not keep his mouth shut.
Fang Zhiyi, however, suddenly stepped closer to the coffin.
As if sensing something, the female voice singing the little tune came to an abrupt halt.
The coffin lid suddenly popped open, as if provoking Fang Zhiyi.
Captain, watch out! The team members hastily prepared for battle.
But what happened next caught them completely off guard. They watched as their captain leaped right into the coffin with a smooth, handsome motion, pulling the coffin lid shut behind him.
It wasn't just them; even the female corpse originally lying inside the coffin was dumbfounded.
Her blood-red pupils stared blankly at the man in front of her. After a moment, she groaned, I am so full of hatred...
You're pushing your luck, aren't you! Fang Zhiyi didn't coddle her in the slightest. He brought his blade down right at her head.
Faced with the explosive aura radiating from the man before her, the female corpse was greatly alarmed. She tried to move, only to find that the man was suppressing her completely. However, sitting around waiting for death was impossible. Her blood-red pupils suddenly dilated, and her face contorted. The bloodstained fabric wrapped around her body now coiled around Fang Zhiyi's figure.
Come along with me... the female corpse hissed in a fragmented voice.
But she immediately sensed something was wrong. A bizarre and anomalous aura, even more ferocious than her own, pushed back along the fabric.
You, you are not human... the female corpse cried out in terror.
Are you cursing at me?
Meanwhile, outside, the team members were gathered around the coffin, looking completely at a loss.
Then, they heard the sound of beating coming from inside the coffin, like something smashing against the wood, emitting dull thuds.
Captain! Captain!
Boss! Are you alright?
No one answered them. Suddenly, the coffin lid was sent flying. The crowd looked up in surprise, only to be startled by the face of the female corpse appearing before them.
Then, they saw a hand grab the female corpse by the hair and drag her right back into the coffin.
Hiss... Is the boss really this fierce? Tearing anomalies apart with his bare hands?
I think I must be overly fatigued...
This is somewhat terrifying.
Watching that figure wielding a blade and hacking away, the four of them gulped in unison.
Why did their captain seem a bit like a psychopath?
It wasn't until Fang Zhiyi was covered in foul-smelling black blood that he jumped out. The team members all took a step back together.
Done. Let's call it a day. Fang Zhiyi took a deep breath. The mental cultivation technique invented by that old geezer Hu Lai had a problem. Whenever he circulated it, his brain would be assaulted by a manic emotion. If he hadn't transmigrated through so many worlds, he probably would have been a goner by now.
Pah. He spat bitterly.
Just as they were about to leave, a noise suddenly echoed from the large red coffin behind them once more.
Li Fei and the others turned their heads in astonishment.
You can't kill me, hahahaha, you can't kill me... The female voice carried a hint of madness mixed with a trace of sorrow, making everyone who heard it feel a chill down their spine.
Captain, let's hurry up and leave. Zhou Hao knew that the anomaly before them was far beyond their capabilities.
Fang Zhiyi did not turn his head; he merely stood there.
Boss? Li Fei called out, looking back at the Coffin Lady's coffin while approaching Fang Zhiyi.
Suddenly, Fang Zhiyi slowly turned his head, his eyes brimming with a blood-red hue.
I can't kill you?
The voice of the Coffin Lady stopped abruptly.
The group watched as Fang Zhiyi spun around and crashed straight into the coffin.
A moment later, the expressions of the group shifted from nervousness to sheer dumbfoundedness.
They watched as the female corpse was hoisted out of the coffin and thrown out by Fang Zhiyi, getting punched more than a dozen times in mid-air. Fang Zhiyi was like a monster, his face full of ruthlessness.
I yield! I yield! A sharp female voice rang out.
Li Fei was somewhat bewildered. Did you guys hear that? Did that anomaly say it yielded?
Shen Yue frowned. Auditory hallucination, right? How could an anomaly say such a thing?
Yet, just five minutes later, the team members were squatting in a semicircle. An ashen-faced female corpse sat before them with her head drooping, her face full of resentment.
Not far away, her coffin had been toppled onto the ground by Fang Zhiyi. At this moment, Fang Zhiyi was bent over, tinkering with something. She didn't dare to go over and look; even though she couldn't die, Fang Zhiyi's beatings on anomalies truly hurt.
What, what exactly is your deal? Li Fei glanced at Fang Zhiyi, suddenly feeling that staying next to this Coffin Lady seemed a bit safer.
The female corpse looked at the four faces in front of her, then cast a fearful glance at Fang Zhiyi not far away. She opened her mouth and began to tell her story. This piqued the team members' immense interest; it was their first time hearing an anomaly tell a story!
It was much like what Fang Zhiyi had mentioned. She had originally married into a wealthy family but had failed to get pregnant for a long time. In an era with poor medical standards, a woman like her was bound to be looked down upon.

Bad news: I transmigrated. This is a terrifying high-martial world, and my original, pathetically weak body fell into a coma and never woke up. Good news: I got a Popularity Points system upon arrival. I can see live comments and even create an unkillable alternate identity. Starting out, the alternate identity has all stats at 1. The system tells me that to grow stronger, I must participate in the plot, gain popularity points to allocate stats and grow stronger, and ultimately awaken my original body.

Shouldn't the debt for saving his life be repaid by now?] [According to unofficial histories, the person in the coffin was Chen Guan's first love. Their love was once passionate and earth-shattering, but they were separated by life and death due to worldly circumstances. What a star-crossed pair.] ... Years later, the world knew of a demon god born from a coffin, shrouded in grey mist, impossible to gaze upon directly. His foremost divine emissary often wielded a scythe, reaping lives like the god of death. As war approached, facing former friends and a boundless sea of enemies, Chen Guan merely raised his scythe.

nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
