[You chose option 1.]
[Dark night, freezing wind. You are sprinting through the mountain forest.]
[You are heading to Baiyun County Town to seek refuge with your third sister.]
[Baiyun County is right next to Qinghe County. The two county towns aren't too far apart, and you know the general direction.]
[Ten days later.]
[You have been running for your life the whole way, distancing yourself from the Black Stone Gang's pursuit.]
[You survived on wild fruits and game. Occasionally, when passing a village, you'd steal some grain, nearly getting caught by villagers who mistook you for a savage.]
["Just over one more mountain, and I'll be at Baiyun County Town..."]
[At this moment, your hair is disheveled, your face grimy, and your body covered in mud. If not for your piercing bright eyes, you wouldn't look human at all.]
[Suddenly, a group of figures darted out from the woods, blocking your path.]
["I planted this mountain! I opened this tree..."]
[A familiar opening line.]
[You have encountered mountain bandits.]
[The leader is a female bandit. She is burly and stout, sporting four chins and a face full of menacing fat.]
[One look at her tonnage tells you she is a master.]
["Heroine, I have no money..."]
[The female bandit searched you thoroughly. For some reason, you felt she was taking advantage of the situation, launching multiple assaults on your 'chicken'.]
["Truly a pauper!"]
[You felt slightly relieved.]
[You know bandits are after wealth. Since you have no money, they shouldn't make things difficult for you.]
["However, you are quite handsome. My ex-husband just died, so you arrived just in time! Hahaha! Take him away!"]
[You were hog-tied by the bandits and carried up the mountain.]
[Wait, what?]
[You've seen bandits who ravish women, but ravishing men? Are they serious?]
[Tonight, the Flying Tiger Stronghold is brightly lit, full of joy, and dead drunk.]
[But the joys and sorrows of humans are not connected.]
[You were stripped naked and scrubbed clean.]
[Then you were dressed in the groom's red robes, covered with a red veil, and made to sit in the bridal chamber, waiting for the bride to come and lift your skull.]
[Listening to the loud chatter of the bandits outside, you figured out the situation.]
[The female bandit who caught you is named Xu Linglong, and her father, Xu Hu, is the chief of this Flying Tiger Stronghold.]
[Hearing that his daughter is getting married for the sixth time, Xu Hu was overjoyed.]
[The father and daughter are right outside the bridal chamber. Xu Hu repeatedly instructed his daughter to be careful and gentle this time; she can't crush another one to death.]
[Your scalp went numb hearing this. So that's how Xu Linglong's ex-husbands died!]
["No, I have to escape!"]
[Your hands and feet are tied, making it hard to break free.]
[You had a bright idea. You twisted your body, squirming and wriggling, managing to slip out of your clothes so the ropes would fall off with them.]
[Success!]
[Just as you were about to put your clothes back on.]
[Xu Linglong pushed the door open and entered.]
["Oh~ Little husband, clothes already off? Don't rush, your wifey is coming right now!!"]
[With every step Xu Linglong took toward you, you felt the room shake, as if a tank were rolling over.]
["Yamete!!"]
[Tonight, the Flying Tiger Stronghold shook as the earth moved.]
Outside the simulation, Chen Yi frowned deeply, looking as if he were wearing a mask of pain.
"You've suffered. It was I who chose the wrong route. I'm sorry."
[The next morning, you sat on the edge of the bed, back turned to the snoring Xu Linglong, contemplating life.]
[You only hate that her defense is too high. Being bare-handed, it would be difficult even if you wanted to strangle her to death.]
[From then on, Xu Linglong was extremely satisfied with you and strictly ordered the entire stronghold not to bully you.]
[Although you suffered at night, life during the day was passable.]
[You could eat fish and meat to your heart's content and drink fine wine freely.]
[You didn't have to do any labor; just basking in the sun was enough.]
[You said you wanted to practice martial arts. Xu Linglong gave you all the cultivation techniques in the stronghold to choose from and taught you hand-in-hand.]
[Unfortunately, you lack the root bone. You couldn't enter the path of martial arts and could only learn some fist and leg techniques to strengthen your body.]
[The second year, age nineteen.]
[Beginning trait extraction...]
[Extraction successful!]
[Trait: "Ji Ni Tai Mei" (White): You are skilled at singing, dancing, rap, and basketball.]
[Do you wish to adjust the traits?]
[Yes / No]
[You replaced "Well-Developed Deltoids" with "Ji Ni Tai Mei".]
["Although it's still a useless trait, 'don't bully the young for being poor'. As long as I live long enough, I'll eventually draw a useful trait!"]
[In your second year at the stronghold, you became completely revitalized.]
[Although you couldn't enter the martial path, your persistence in exercise—and forced exercise—greatly improved your physique.]
[You can't compare to a martial artist, but you are much sturdier than an ordinary person.]
[If you weren't sturdy, you would have already followed in the footsteps of the ex-husband bros.]
[After a year together, Xu Linglong couldn't get enough of you, while you were unable to pull out even if you wanted to.]
[You thought about escaping, but the Flying Tiger Stronghold was managed like an iron fortress by Xu Hu and his daughter; you couldn't find a chance.]
[You didn't dare reveal your desire to escape, fearing these fickle bandits would cut you down instantly.]
[To this end, you pretended to have integrated into stronghold life and even performed a combo for Xu Linglong using your newly mastered trait.]
["Hello bandit brothers, I am... who has been in the stronghold for a year and a half..."]
[After watching your set of 'Kun Boxing', Xu Linglong's fat trembled with joy.]
["Husband, you're amazing!"]
[Suddenly, a panicked shout came from the stronghold gate.]
["Chief! The government troops are attacking!"]
[In the great hall, Xu Hu angrily smashed the bowl of wine in his hand.]
["What?! How do we have no news of the troops coming up? Where are the patrols? The sentries? The traps??"]
["It's the Second Boss! He colluded with the government and led the troops up through our secret cargo path!!"]
[Hearing this, your eyes lit up.]
[The chance to escape has arrived!]
[Suddenly, a chubby hand grabbed your wrist.]
["Husband! Follow me!"]
[Xu Linglong possesses immense strength; you couldn't resist at all and were dragged away by her.]
[She brought you to a cave.]
["Husband, keep walking inside. This cave leads to another mountain. Only my father and I know about it. No one will chase you. Run, quickly!"]
["I... escape?"]
[You didn't expect Xu Linglong to be serious.]
[She seemed to truly believe the persona you acted out for them in the stronghold.]
["Husband! Don't worry about me, save yourself! I'll go distract the soldiers for you! Go!"]
[She threw you into the cave like tossing a little chick.]
["I'm not a bandit, why should I be afraid of soldiers? Honestly..."]
[Xu Linglong, wielding two large hammers, charged toward the soldiers without looking back.]
[Watching her tiger-backed, bear-waisted figure, you pondered where to go from here...]
[1. Go deeper into the cave and leave via the secret mountain path;]
[2. Return to the stronghold and fight side by side with your wife;]
[3. Collude with the government to completely wipe out the bandits.]
[Please make a choice:]
Chen Yi inside the simulation is part of the scenario and might be influenced by emotions.
But the Chen Yi in reality is absolutely rational.
He knows his first simulation is crucial. He must lay low for a while longer, survive, and draw more traits!
Seizing the opportunity of the Martial Dao was the sole objective of this simulation.
"If I don't slip away now, then when?"
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.
he colors of other people’s emotions. Light red meant anxiety. Gray meant exhaustion. Orange meant excitement. Yellow... meant repression. At the same time, he could gain unlimited control over one of those colors. Pale cyan: relaxation. Using this ability, he started offering “two-yuan hugs,” spending an afternoon exchanging emotional-color experiences with others. Then came his final female customer of the day— a girl whose emotional color was pure black... —— A week later, Xu Chuan had become skilled at using pale cyan—Relaxation—treating it like a bottle of menthol balm whenever he needed it. That was when he discovered he had unlocked another unlimited emotional color: Purple, the color of fear. So these emotional colors refresh every week? Fine, I take it back—I’ll never call you useless again... —— Much later, after Xu Chuan had accumulated countless emotional abilities, one night, he suddenly found himself inside someone else’s dream. There, he could use the emotional colors he possessed to paint. And in her dream, he painted her a shower of pink shooting stars, spreading across the depths of the night sky...
close your eyes and open them again, only to find yourself transmigrated into the role of a villainous male supporting character. Readers familiar with urban wish-fulfillment novels know that it is only through the relentless antics of the villainous male supporting character that the plot between the male and female leads can progress. As the villainous male supporting character, Long Aotian not only has to bully the female lead, harass the second female lead, and flirt with the third female lead, but he also has to go all out to antagonize the male lead. In the end, when his body is discovered, he is still clutching half a moldy fried dough stick in his hand. Fully aware of the plot, Long Aotian is determined to change his fate, starting with the female lead! In the beginning, the female lead lacks confidence: "Big brother, I hope I didn't scare you?" In the middle, the female lead treads carefully: "Brother Long, please don't hit me, okay?" Later on, the female lead becomes coquettishly clingy: "Aotian, it's time to pay the 'public grain' tonight." Long Aotian's legs go weak, and he feels like crying: "I taught you to be thick-skinned, not shameless!"
