The more Mo Tianxiao thought about it, the more he felt something was wrong.
When he checked Su Muxue's information back then, she seemed to be the younger sister of some Empress from the Yaochi Heavenly Palace. Her background was obviously extraordinary.
Combined with the Yaochi Heavenly Palace's unusual behavior this time, it was highly likely that she was whispering in that Empress's ear.
"If this crazy woman seeks revenge against me in front of so many people, wouldn't the whole sect know about it?"
That would be way too embarrassing, right?
"Forget it, I'll just find an excuse not to attend this exchange conference."
Anyway, the Demon Sect had many disciples, and not everyone could participate. It wouldn't matter if he was missing.
Thinking of this, Mo Tianxiao's expression instantly relaxed.
With a thought, he opened his character panel.
Name: Mo Tianxiao
Cultivation: Peak Soul Formation
Luck Level: Black
Cultivation Method: Demon Emperor Sutra (Level Two +)
Magical Artifacts: Nine Tribulations Holy Sword (Sealed State), Human Emperor Banner (Damaged)
Secondary Professions: Advanced Alchemist (+), Advanced Talisman Master (+), Intermediate Array Master (+), Junior Blacksmith (+)
Villain Points: 402137
Luck Points: 1300
After three years of accumulation, his Villain Points had reached over 400,000. A plus sign had appeared next to the Demon Emperor Sutra again, and a secondary profession column had been added to his character panel.
Except for Alchemy, which he had upgraded to the advanced level using Villain Points, he only spent a tiny amount of points to get started on the other professions. Then, he relied on his own thirty years of study inside the Time Tower to grind them to this level.
How many minor villains in this world worked this hard despite having a cheat system? Probably only him.
"Sigh, it's still not enough."
He didn't want to grind so hard either. He also wanted to just max out all his skills and techniques using Villain Points, but he was simply too poor to waste them recklessly.
"I'll save them for now."
Resisting the urge to tap the plus sign next to the Demon Emperor Sutra, he closed the character panel.
He couldn't be impatient like last time, or he would attract unnecessary attention again.
Let alone his occasionally erratic master, he wouldn't even be able to explain it to his junior sister Wan'er.
If he didn't cultivate at all for three years and his cultivation suddenly skyrocketed to the peak of the ninth level of the Profound Comprehension Realm, that would be too terrifying. He didn't want to be dragged away by his master for punishment again.
The sect was very safe, and a Peak Soul Formation cultivation was more than enough.
"After this sect exchange conference passes, I'll find a chance to go out and experience the world for a few years. Coming back after a breakthrough will make much more sense."
Anyway, no one knew what he had been through these past few years. Even if his master asked, he could just say he encountered a peerless opportunity and had accumulated enough experience to break through.
"Senior Brother Mo, are you there?"
Just as Mo Tianxiao was imagining his future, a familiar voice came from outside the cave dwelling.
"Li Yu?"
"Come in."
Li Yu quickly walked in, his expression seemingly conflicted.
"What's wrong?"
Seeing Li Yu's hesitant demeanor, Mo Tianxiao frowned slightly, glancing outside the cave dwelling thoughtfully.
"Senior Brother, there's something I want to report to you. Xiao Chen, come in."
Li Yu called out toward the outside of the cave dwelling.
Soon, a fourteen or fifteen-year-old boy walked in. The youthfulness on his face had not yet faded, but his eyes were extremely resolute, as if he had been tempered a thousand times over and nothing could shake him.
Seeing this boy, a phrase popped into Mo Tianxiao's mind: sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes.
He finally saw what sword-like eyebrows and starry eyes truly meant; it turned out it was more than just a descriptive phrase.
"Xiao Chen, greet him."
"Greetings, Senior Brother Mo!"
The boy called Xiao Chen bowed ninety degrees to Mo Tianxiao, his voice sonorous and forceful.
"Explain, what's the situation?" Mo Tianxiao waved his hand and asked.
"Senior Brother, Xiao Chen is the descendant of my younger sister. Because their family gradually declined, he became the only junior in the family who could cultivate. So, my sister's descendants found a way to contact me, hoping I could help keep Xiao Chen by my side and guide his cultivation."
Li Yu hurriedly explained Xiao Chen's background.
Hearing this, Mo Tianxiao was a bit surprised. "You have a younger sister? How come I've never heard you mention her?"
A trace of reminiscence appeared in Li Yu's eyes as he spoke, "My sister's talent was limited, stopping at the Foundation Establishment Realm. She married early, and her lifespan was exhausted a hundred years ago, so she has already passed away."
If one calculated carefully, he was considered the most promising person in his family back then. Stepping into cultivation ignorantly from a grassroots background, he blundered his way to the Golden Core Realm and, by a stroke of luck, became a disciple of the Demon Sect.
At the time, he thought his experience could be called legendary, even believing for a while that he was the protagonist and his future would definitely be bright.
But upon arriving at the Demon Sect, he realized that geniuses like him were everywhere, and he could only be considered ordinary.
As his family members passed away one by one due to exhausted lifespans, he knew that he was just an ordinary person with slightly better luck.
It wasn't until he met the Eldest Senior Brother and became his lackey that he realized his luck might not have run out yet. He might still be able to continue struggling on this path to heaven and climb to a higher place.
"I see."
Mo Tianxiao nodded.
He hadn't even been born when the other party's sister passed away, so it was no wonder he didn't know.
Thinking about it carefully, although Li Yu only had a Golden Core cultivation, he had lived for hundreds of years and naturally experienced more than him.
No wonder he was so good at handling things. Could his past unreliable behavior have been an act to cater to him?
Recalling the bizarre suggestions Li Yu had made before he transmigrated, he couldn't help but feel a bit suspicious.
"Tell me, why did you bring him to see me?"
"Senior Brother, didn't you ask me to focus on cultivating some trustworthy people before? I want to include him."
Li Yu's expression was a bit awkward, as if it was hard to speak up.
No matter what, the boy was his sister's descendant, and he naturally wanted to help if he could. Moreover, he saw a resolute tenacity in the boy. With his eye for people, he felt this descendant of his sister was worth cultivating, but...
"You can decide this kind of thing yourself. You don't need to ask me."
He thought it was something major, yet he made a special trip just to ask him.
"Senior Brother, Xiao Chen's talent is not high, even arguably quite poor, but he is very hardworking. That's why I came to ask for your opinion. If it's not possible, I'll just let him be an ordinary disciple in the outer sect."
Li Yu didn't want to betray the Eldest Senior Brother's trust in him.
If Xiao Chen's talent were good, he indeed could have decided on his own to include the boy in the training group. But the problem was that the boy's talent was too poor, barely enough to cultivate.
If his Senior Brother didn't agree to include him as a cultivation target, he would place him in the outer sect to experience the world. How far he could go in the end would solely depend on his own fortune.
"Talent is not something that hard work can make up for..."
Mo Tianxiao knew this very well. There were some things where a lifetime of hard work couldn't compare to someone else's casual learning.
Looking at the resolute boy, he opened his Eye of Inspection, and a panel appeared before his eyes.
Name: Ye Chen
Cultivation: First Level of Qi Condensation
Destiny Level: Gold
Aptitude: Combat Sacred Physique (Unawakened)
Profile: A resolute youth, the sole hope of his family, bearing the destiny of his entire clan...]
Hearing Mo Tianxiao's words, realization dawned in Li Yu's eyes. He could only cast a pitying glance at Ye Chen before cupping his hands in respect toward Mo Tianxiao and saying:
"Senior Brother, I understand what needs to be done."
With that said, Li Yu prepared to lead Ye Chen away.
"Wait!"
ng to die together with you." Lin Xuan is dead, his body thrown into the river by his scumbag lover and her accomplice. She, the president of the Su Group, is decisive, ruthless, and ice-cold. For three days and three nights, she had his body fished out of the river, and without hesitation, she kissed the bloated corpse of Lin Xuan. She laid down beside him in a cold coffin, their fingers intertwined, a smile lingering on her lips as she closed her eyes. The noble and cold-hearted woman, only bending for one man—Lin Xuan.

grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
ut it can buy an entire year of absolutely perfect training results! Su Yu stared at his empty wallet and decisively opened up various online loan platforms. “Borrow a thousand bucks!

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.
