【Seeing You Keqing and the others approaching, the battle corpse, under the control of the Featherwing Sect cultivators, began attacking them of its own accord.】
【“Hahahaha! The Heavenly Fiend Army is truly out of options now. They actually found a bunch of humans to fight our ancestor!”】
【“What a joke. Just look at these humans—they have no weapons, no armor, nothing! They came here bare-handed just to make fools of themselves!”】
【“Don’t rush, don’t rush. I love tormenting humans. Let’s have some fun!”】
【The mocking voices of the Featherwing Sect cultivators drifted over from the distant mountaintop.】
【Under their control, the battle corpse restrained the power of its golden wheel and began attacking with its fists and feet.】
【Its body stood over a hundred meters tall. Once it moved, the wind howled around it. It possessed immense strength and was terrifyingly agile as well. Since it had no need to consider the normal movement of bones and joints, it could perform all sorts of movements that defied human anatomy.】
【Although You Keqing and the others had surrounded it, they were not actually attacking.】
【The dozen or so people had merely taken up separate positions, linking their divine power together in an attempt to form a formation.】
【Unfortunately, the battle corpse was constantly moving, forcing You Keqing and the others to keep adjusting their positions. As a result, they could never complete the formation they were trying to set up.】
【As a grandmaster of formations, you saw through the situation at a glance.】
【“Great Elder, cover me. I’m going to help them!”】
【“Sect Master! Sect Master!”】
【Ya Dada simply couldn’t call you back.】
【You leaped into the air, wearing a pair of tiny women’s shoes, clutching a woman’s dress in one hand and holding a mirror in the other as you charged forward.】
【You arrived in the air between the Heavenly Fiend Army and the battle corpse, then turned around and shouted toward the entire army.】
【“Attack me!”】
【The entire army was utterly bewildered.】
【“Hurry!!!”】
【Military orders could not be disobeyed. The officers at every level immediately issued the command.】
【All the cultivators activated their techniques, while the soldiers operated the massive magical weapons, directing every attack toward you.】
【You gritted your teeth and raised the Profound Flame Divine Mirror.】
【“Damn it, I have no idea if this thing can take it! If it can’t, then I’ll just blow up! It’s only a transformed body that’ll die anyway!”】
【The Heavenly Fiend Army’s attacks surged toward you like waves.】
【Countless forms of attack mixed together, resembling a mad, ferocious dragon baring its fangs and claws as it tried to swallow you whole.】
【The Profound Flame Divine Mirror was only about the size of a few palms, so the area it could absorb was extremely limited.】
【You could only rely on your extreme speed, constantly moving around and doing your best to draw all the attacks near your body into the mirror.】
【Even so, a wide variety of attacks still struck your body.】
【But it didn’t matter. On one hand, you still had the Cloudglow Feather Robe to help withstand them. On the other, you had a whole host of traits to shield you.】
【The enemy had no idea what you were trying to do.】
【They simply thought you had gone insane and were actually trying to kill yourself.】
【Still, some of them were sharp enough to realize that something was wrong. They immediately ordered the cultivators controlling the battle corpse to finish off You Keqing and the others as quickly as possible, then deal with you afterward.】
【Unfortunately, it was already too late.】
【After enduring a full round of attacks from the entire army, the Profound Flame Divine Mirror had absorbed an enormous amount of energy.】
【It began trembling in your hand. The energy within was already on the verge of overflowing!】
【You gripped both sides of the mirror with both hands, aimed it at the battle corpse, and unleashed a deadly pillar of flame powerful enough to pierce through the earth’s surface!】
【“Rumble!!!”】
【The blaze outshone the sunlight, and the world in every direction was shrouded in scorching crimson light.】
【It was as though everyone had put on a red-tinted filter.】
【The battle corpse raised its golden wheel and effortlessly blocked the pillar of flame.】
【But the pillar continued without end. Behind you, divine light erupted in the opposite direction, pushing you forward as you closed the distance.】
【You and the battle corpse entered a brief stalemate.】
【You Keqing and the others seized the opportunity and swiftly completed their formation.】
【The sixteen of them transformed into sixteen points of light, each a different color. Spiritual chains linked them together, forming a net that enveloped the battle corpse.】
【“Humans! You think a mere little formation can contend with the corpse of our Featherwing Sect’s Supreme Ancestor? Delusional!!!”】
【The battle corpse charged forward explosively, breaking free of the formation created by You Keqing and the others.】
【But when it turned around, it discovered that the golden wheel in its hand had vanished.】
【Then it looked up and saw the golden wheel floating above the formation, bobbing gently in midair.】
【You Keqing’s aged voice rang out. It was also the last voice he would leave behind in this world.】
【“Fools! Who told you we were after the corpse of your ancestor?”】
【The sixteen points of light merged into the golden wheel and disappeared without a trace.】
【At the same time, a voice transmission from You Keqing entered your mind.】
【“Chen Dong, this object is called the Sun-Hao Ring. It is a fragment of the Red Heaven Emperor’s former Imperial Immortal Armament, the Sun-Hao Heavenly Wheel. Today, we have reclaimed it from the alien race. I hope you will treasure it and, one day, place it in the hands of someone capable of using it properly!
The Flameglow Star… humanity… I leave them to you…”】
【You could sense that the lives of You Keqing and the other fifteen people had already faded away.】
【Even their souls had been unable to escape from the Sun-Hao Ring.】
【It seemed they had used their lives to awaken the Sun-Hao Ring and free it from the aliens’ control.】
【Afterward, the Sun-Hao Ring flew into your hand of its own accord.】
【You put on an act, making it look as though you had pulled the Sun-Hao Ring toward yourself through the air.】
【“No!!!”】
【On Qingqiu Mountain, the higher-ups of the Qingqiu Sect nearly vomited blood.】
【They knew the origin of this object as well. It was the strongest divine weapon in the world—the Imperial Immortal Armament—even if this was only a fragment rather than the complete weapon.】
【Everyone had already witnessed how terrifying its power was!】
【And that was despite the fact that the Sun-Hao Ring had yet to unleash its full might.】
【The reason was that living people could not use it at all. Anyone who tried would have their body disintegrated under the burden of the Emperor’s power. The Featherwing Sect’s ancestor, however, had exploited a loophole by being refined into a corpse, allowing it to bear part of that power and display a portion of its might.】
【After discovering the Sun-Hao Ring, the Qingqiu Sect had kept it hidden as a treasured heirloom.】
【Even though they could not use it, they knew how precious it was and had been terrified that a stronger force might discover it and seize it.】
【Yet now, right before their eyes, Si Duo Duo of the Dragonfolk had simply taken the Sun-Hao Ring away!】
【“Quickly! Take back the Sun-Hao Ring!!!”】
【At the command of the Qingqiu Sect’s supreme elders, the entire sect surged into action.】
【Cultivators charged out from every direction—over the mountains and beneath them, through the skies and across the ground.】
【Without the Sun-Hao Ring, the battle corpse of the Featherwing Sect no longer possessed such overwhelming power. With a thunderous burst forward, you knocked it to the ground with a single punch.】
【You stood atop the battle corpse’s forehead, the Sun-Hao Ring in your left hand and the Profound Flame Divine Mirror in your right, your gaze cold and sharp as a blade.】
【“The entire army—attack! Flatten Qingqiu!”】
【The Heavenly Fiend Army surged forward as one, their morale soaring!】
【“Kill!!!”】
【“Long live the Sect Master! Long live the Dragonfolk!!!”】
“For a thousand ages! Let all the flames unite as one!”
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.

agon king storylines. At the start, I obtained the "Ultimate Lackey System" - the more I act as a lackey, the stronger I become. What else could I do? I chose to become the personal henchman of the ultimate villain, Su Muwan. I provoke all sorts of chosen ones, snatch away their opportunities, and commit every evil deed imaginable. You ask who's behind me? Hmph! You're not worthy of knowing my lady's name! ...... ....... I am Su Muwan, the eldest daughter of the Su family. Since childhood, I've possessed extraordinary talent in martial arts, which led to my arrogant and domineering personality in my past life. I was even foolish enough to repeatedly challenge those favored by heaven, ultimately resulting in a tragic death. In this life, I must behave and absolutely cannot walk the same path again!! However... SLAP!! "So you're the Dragon King, huh?!" When I saw my little lackey swagger over and viciously slap the Dragon King who was hiding his identity, I felt my heart sink.

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?
