After hearing what the old fisherman said, Qin Hao couldn't help but find it rather amusing.
"Thank you for your concern, but in the Three Realms and Nine Heavens, no one can touch me."
Qin Hao helped the fisherman, Xiao Xue, and Xiao Fang up, and then took the three of them back to the inn together.
The old fisherman was very curious about how Qin Hao had survived. He had come to cause trouble in the Immortal Court. How could he have come out unscathed?
The only explanation he could think of was that Qin Hao had backed down when he realized the difficulty and didn't go to the Immortal Court to demand an explanation.
When they returned to the inn, Chen Xiaoyun, who had been waiting there early, immediately threw herself into Qin Hao's arms.
She was holding a dagger in her hand. When she looked up at Qin Hao, her eyes were as bright as jewels with two stars embedded in them.
There was an uncontrollable excitement in her eyes.
Qin Hao smiled and ruffled Chen Xiaoyun's hair:
"What's wrong? Why are you so excited today?"
Chen Xiaoyun looked at Qin Hao and nodded seriously:
"Success! Qin Hao! I've succeeded! I've developed the Dimension - Breaking Blade!"
Hearing this, Qin Hao's eyes immediately lit up.
"Really! You succeeded? Let me have a look!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Xiaoyun handed the dagger in her hand to Qin Hao.
"Try the power of this dagger."
Qin Hao thought for a while and then took out an Emperor - Grade Weapon.
The defensive power of an Emperor - Grade Weapon was no less than that of a Fairy King cultivator. He wanted to see if a dimensional weapon like the Dimension - Breaking Blade could cause damage to a weapon of this level.
Qin Hao placed the Emperor - Grade long sword on the table.
The sword body was pure silver, with delicate star - like patterns flowing on its surface.
Even when it was just standing still, it emitted a powerful pressure that made the surrounding air slightly stagnant.
Qin Hao took the dagger from Chen Xiaoyun's hand and gently flicked his wrist.
It seemed that Qin Hao had just let the tip of the dagger brush against the surface of the Emperor - Grade Weapon.
There was no sound and no spark.
However, at the moment when the dagger touched the long sword, the entire sword body, centered on the contact point, collapsed from a solid state into an almost invisible line.
Then, that line also quickly shrank until it completely merged with the entire world.
Looking at the disappearing Emperor - Grade Weapon, Qin Hao couldn't help but take a sharp breath:
"Whoa, this Dimension - Breaking Blade is a real - life dimensionality reduction strike! Hahaha, it may not be enough for great powers like Fairy Kings and Fairy Emperors who can control the laws of the world. But it can still cause effective damage to cultivators at the Fairy Lord level. Moreover, the most important thing is that the threshold for using this weapon is not high. As long as one has spiritual power in their body, they can use it! With this weapon, even cultivators at the Qi - Refining Realm can hurt Fairy Lord cultivators! Haha, Xiaoyun, you've made a great contribution to our Three Realms and Nine Heavens this time!!!"
Seeing Qin Hao's excited look, Chen Xiaoyun also smiled.
However, soon, the smile on her face was replaced by a faint sadness.
She lowered her head and whispered to Qin Hao:
"Qin Hao, there's something I want to discuss with you."
Hearing this, Qin Hao waved his hand grandly: "Say it! As long as it's something I can help with, just tell me."
Chen Xiaoyun kept her head down, not daring to look into Qin Hao's eyes, and just whispered:
"Our rental period is over, and I've also given you a ten - star rating. Can you not drive me away? I want to stay by your side."
Saying that, Chen Xiaoyun looked up. As if afraid that Qin Hao would still drive her away, she continued:
"I still have value. There are methods for making other weapons in the secret manual left by the ancestors of our Chen family. I can bring value to you. Can you not drive me away?"
Qin Hao raised his eyebrows: "I thought you had something really important to discuss with me. So, it's just this."
"No problem. You can stay if you want. But it's impossible for you to stay by my side all the time. You can go back to the Qin family and wait for me. I'll go back to see you all from time to time."
Hearing this, Chen Xiaoyun's eyes lit up. She nodded repeatedly: "I don't dare to ask for too much. As long as you let me stay in the Qin family, I'll be very satisfied."
Qin Hao pinched Chen Xiaoyun's little face and smiled:
"Once you're back at the Qin family, just ask for any resources you need and mass - produce this weapon."
Chen Xiaoyun nodded heavily, indicating that she would definitely do so.
[Ding, congratulations to the host for completing the order and getting a ten - star rating.]
[Ding, congratulations to the host for obtaining one unit of luck and the ten - star rating reward - a Fairy Emperor - level puppet (which can automatically repair itself no matter how serious the injury it receives).]
Hearing the electronic voice in his mind, the corners of Qin Hao's mouth slightly turned up.
A Fairy Emperor - level puppet. He had been worried that since all the ancestors in the clan were in battle and couldn't spare the time, if a Fairy King or a Fairy Emperor - level cultivator came to cause trouble for him, what could he do.
Now it was great. The system had directly given him a Fairy Emperor - level puppet. It was really wonderful.
"Damn system, how powerful is this Fairy Emperor - level puppet?"
[Ding, it's evenly matched with your adoptive father.]
What! It could be evenly matched with his adoptive father. His adoptive father was one of the best among the Fairy Emperors.
Throughout the Three Realms and Nine Heavens, in a one - on - one fight, only his wife, Ruyan, could probably defeat his adoptive father.
This puppet could be evenly matched with his adoptive father. Sure enough, things produced by the system were always top - notch.
[Ding, a new order will be issued in three days. Please make mental preparations, host.]
Hearing this, Qin Hao didn't care at all.
He was no longer the innocent young cook he was when he first started this job.
Now he was like a man walking through a field of flowers without a single petal sticking to him. Make mental preparations? He could just go for it right away. Do you believe it?
Just then, there was a sudden and urgent knock on the door.
Qin Hao opened the door and saw that it was the old fisherman. His face was full of anxiety at the moment.
"Sir, it's bad! Someone from the Immortal Court has come, and it's the new head of the Immortal Court. He specifically asked to see you!"
The old fisherman gave Qin Hao a look with his eyes, signaling him to take Chen Xiaoyun and run away through the window.
"Old Sun, do you have some misunderstanding about me?"
The old fisherman let out a long sigh:
"Sir, this is not the time to be brave. You should leave quickly and don't be reckless. The Immortal Court is not something you can deal with."
Before the old fisherman could finish speaking, Qin Hao had already flipped downstairs and stood in front of the new head of the Lingyao Immortal Court.
The man was wearing a silver - white robe. He looked quite young, only about twenty - five or twenty - six. There were also a group of followers at the Great Luo Golden Immortal Realm behind him.
Qin Hao sized up this group of people and joked with a smile:
"What a grand occasion~"
Upstairs, hearing this, the old fisherman's heart skipped a beat.
"Oh my god! Sir is being too bold! That's the head of the Immortal Court! How dare he talk to the other person like that?"
However, what happened next made the old fisherman's jaw drop in shock.
It was seen that the new head of the Immortal Court, instead of being angry at Qin Hao's rude words, bowed respectfully to Qin Hao.

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."

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.

ts me of treason?" "Correct. The host must return to the capital and gradually build up influence." "Wait—I have half a million soldiers, and you want me to go back to the capital to 'build influence'?" "Host, you are currently the Northern Garrison General, loyal to the Great Xia Dynasty." "Of course I am loyal to Great Xia! Absolutely loyal!" "But you keep referring to yourself as 'We'..." "Never mind the details! Summon all the regional commanders and military officers! We suspect treacherous officials are manipulating the court! They shall march with Us to the capital and purge the corrupt!" "......"
