What Glasses suddenly blurted out left Lin Yu thoroughly confused.
It wasn’t about helping just one person—it involved the two sisters?
From the sound of it, it was probably something that had happened at school.
How did Glasses know about it when he didn’t?
When Lin Yu questioned him, Xiao Yang quickly tugged at Glasses’s arm.
Glasses covered his mouth. “!!!”
Only then did he realize he had said something he shouldn’t have.
Since Elder Chi and Little Chi hadn’t taken the initiative to tell Brother Yu, they clearly didn’t want him to know.
And now he’d gone and let it slip!
Naturally, the little exchange between the two of them didn’t escape Lin Yu’s notice.
“Glasses, can’t you even tell me the truth?”
Lin Yu’s tone was serious.
Glasses scratched his cheek awkwardly.
“Brother Yu, just don’t say I was the one who told you.”
“Actually, if you think about it, it concerns our group too…”
Then Glasses told Lin Yu everything that had happened that morning at school, when he ran into Chi Qingshui and Chi Qingchi.
The “mini-semester” was a short-term practical session shared by several departments in the Film Academy.
It wasn’t exclusive to Lin Yu’s major.
That was why Glasses, from the lighting department, had ended up teaming up with them.
The problem that had come up that day was simple, in essence...
They had clashed with third-year students from the photography department over a filming location.
With the location overlapping, their shooting times naturally overlapped as well.
Both sides had chosen the period with the most camera-friendly “soft natural light.”
Too early, and the sunlight would overexpose the shot.
Too late, and there wouldn’t be enough light.
Something every student in the directing department knew—how could the photography students not know it too?
If the disputed location had been a classroom, it wouldn’t have been such a big deal.
There were plenty of classrooms on campus. They could simply switch to another one.
Unfortunately, both sides had chosen the sports field with a rostrum and viewing stands.
There was only one such place in all of Pingchuan University!
The other sports fields—like the one where Lin Yu went running in the mornings—had no comparable facilities at all.
Early that morning, when the Chi sisters had gone to set up the scene, they happened to run into the photography students, who were also preparing to put up their foam boards.
At first, both sides seemed to be having a “friendly discussion.”
But when it came to the crucial issue, neither side was willing to give an inch.
At the time, Glasses had been taking Xiao Yang across the sports field as a shortcut on their way to the library to make out.
They witnessed the two groups’ heated discussion.
He had originally wanted to stay and talk things over with Elder Chi, to figure out how they should handle it.
But when the sisters saw that Glasses was on a date, they generously told him to go take care of his business first and leave things there to them.
After listening, Lin Yu more or less understood the situation.
As for who was right and who was wrong...
Both sides were right. Neither side was in the wrong.
If you wanted to use an outdoor place like a university sports field to shoot a video or take some photos, you generally didn’t even need to apply to the school. You could just use it.
It would actually have been better if an application had been required. At least then one side might have booked it while the other hadn’t, giving them something concrete to argue from.
But now?
Either they played the “we’re all from the same school” card...
Or both sides stood their ground, making sure nobody had an easy time.
“Brother Yu, Elder Chi and Little Chi probably didn’t tell you because they were worried you’d get worked up too.”
“And if you went over there... and got into a fight with those guys, it would only be harder to clean up afterward!”
Glasses analyzed the situation as he spoke.
He was even trying to find an angle from which to comfort Lin Yu.
Lin Yu smiled and shook his head.
Did he really look that fragile?
Would something this minor really upset him?
“Alright, I get it.”
“Take Xiao Yang around and show her the place. If you’ve got nothing going on this afternoon, bring her by the group.”
“I’m heading to the sports field to see what’s going on.”
The moment he said that,
Glasses looked even more troubled.
“Brother Yu, how about I…”
“We go together.”
Lin Yu grabbed his shoulder and turned him around.
“Oh, just go already. Do I look like someone who’d cause trouble?”
“I’ll go ask them nicely and reason things out with them.”
Glasses was pushed forward a couple of steps, but he kept asking,
“You’re really not going to fight, Brother Yu?”
“You don’t exactly look like the type to beg people, either.”
Lin Yu pressed down on Glasses’s head again, turning his face forward.
“I’m practically the model of winning people over with virtue. Stop slandering me.”
Glasses took another couple of reluctant steps, then turned back hesitantly.
“Brother Yu… I’m really leaving, then?”
“Call me if anything happens!”
Lin Yu waved him off, signaling for Glasses to get moving.
Their conversation caught Maomao’s attention.
With her head lowered, she hurried over in quick little steps to Lin Yu and Ying'er.
“Yu, Ying'er, did something happen?”
Maomao asked suspiciously.
Ying'er rubbed her palms together, practically itching with excitement as she grabbed Maomao’s arm.
“Hehe, things are getting exciting!”
“Maomao…”
“Have you ever been in a fight?”
Maomao’s pupils trembled.
“Huh?!”

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.

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.
