Following the analysis by the Liu Family Head, both Liu Mengyan and Liu Chengfeng breathed a sigh of relief.
"That Chen Family is truly cunning—we were almost fooled by them."
"They’ve delayed my great marriage prospects. Just wait and see how I deal with them."
"Father, we absolutely cannot let this matter rest."
"The contract is still with the Chen Family. I’m worried they’ll cause trouble during my engagement ceremony," Liu Mengyan said angrily.
"This isn’t difficult to handle."
"Mengyan, you and the Fifth Prince are deeply in love, and his maternal uncle happens to be the Third Elder of your Supreme Purity Sect, a man of formidable strength."
"Simply inform the Fifth Prince and have his uncle intervene. The Chen Family won’t be able to stir up any trouble," the Liu Family Head said with a smile.
The Great Zhou Imperial Family and the Supreme Purity Sect shared an extremely close relationship. While the Supreme Purity Sect was stronger overall, its current Grand Elder was a member of the Great Zhou Imperial Family.
The ties between the two were intricate, and if the imperial family faced trouble, the Supreme Purity Sect would never stand idly by.
Moreover, the Fifth Prince’s uncle was a powerful elder of the sect.
"Father, is it enough just to inform the Fifth Prince?"
"What about His Majesty…?"
"Mengyan, many people know of this matter, but none speak of it. Do you know why?"
"The imperial family must maintain its dignity."
"That’s why I had the two of you visit the Chen Family alone at the time."
"The fewer who know of this, the better."
"So that’s how it is. Father, your foresight is truly profound. I’ll go find the Fifth Prince now."
"Good. Resolve the Chen Family threat as quickly as possible to avoid complications."
"Yes."
While the Liu Family took action, the Chen Family also did not remain idle in Swallow Return City.
"Look at this—isn’t it bizarre?"
"Damn, I’ve never seen anything like this before."
"Am I… still dreaming? This can’t be real."
"Even a dog is riding a horse now?"
"I can’t even afford a horse, yet this mutt gets to ride one?"
"Which noble family do these two young masters belong to?"
Three days prior, Chen Chang'an had left Swallow Return City with Chen Yunxuan and Da Huang. Everywhere they passed, they drew countless stares.
The reason? Da Huang insisted on riding a horse.
A dog on horseback—unheard of, unseen before!
At first, Chen Yunxuan felt somewhat embarrassed. He wasn’t used to being the center of attention, even if most of it was directed at Da Huang.
As part of the group, he couldn’t escape the scrutiny either.
But now, Chen Yunxuan had grown indifferent. After all, one adapts quickly!
"Yunxuan, are we still within Beiyuan Prefecture?" Chen Chang'an asked.
"Ancestor, I’ve rarely left Swallow Return City, but judging by the distance, we should still be in Beiyuan Prefecture," Chen Yunxuan replied after some thought.
Three days and still not out of Beiyuan Prefecture—their pace was rather slow.
"Da Huang, this is all your fault. If you hadn’t insisted on riding a horse, we wouldn’t be moving so slowly."
Da Huang shot Chen Chang'an a disdainful glance and transmitted his thoughts: "What’s the big deal? I’ve lived for so long—can’t I enjoy myself a little?"
"You get to ride me, but I can’t ride a horse?"
"What’s the rush? Got a date with the underworld?"
"With your lifespan, why the hurry?"
Hearing this, Chen Chang'an chuckled helplessly. This guy’s temper had been flaring up lately—maybe he should find him a female dog to vent some steam.
He’d probably be grateful, right?
Yes, definitely grateful.
Thinking this, Chen Chang'an grinned, leaving Chen Yunxuan bewildered while Da Huang grew wary.
This bastard’s definitely up to no good!
"That’s him!"
"He’s a fraud—smash his stall!"
Suddenly, angry shouts from nearby caught Chen Chang'an’s attention.
Looking over, he saw several burly men surrounding a fortune-teller’s stall, their faces twisted in rage.
"Hold on!"
"Pray tell, where did I err in my divination?" the old fortune-tester protested indignantly.
"Fine. Seven days ago, you said I’d face a bloody disaster, a calamity."
"Was that you or not?" one of the men demanded.
"Indeed, those were my words."
"You told me to leave this place and not return for seven days, correct?"
"Correct."
"Then tell me—I stayed here all seven days. Where’s my bloody disaster? Where’s my calamity?"
"Still claim you’re not a fraud?" the man roared.
The exchange drew murmurs and pointed fingers from the onlookers.
"Total scam. But honestly, who falls for this stuff?"
"Ah, there’s always someone gullible. This old man’s been here for months—who knows how many he’s swindled."
"At least this time, someone called him out. Otherwise, more would’ve been fooled."
"Disgusting. I hate these con artists."
"Serves him right. Beat him senseless!"
Unfazed by the anger and ridicule, the old man shook his head at the burly man.
"Alas, this time, I cannot save you."
"Disaster has entered your fate palace. There’s no reversing it now."
"You… are on your own."
"Still lying to my face?"
"Bloody disaster, huh? Did you foresee that today would be yours?"
"Get him!"
With a cold snort, the man ordered his companions to attack.
Bang!
Bang!
Bang!
In an instant, a figure flashed forward, and the men were sent flying, collapsing to the ground.
The sudden turn of events stunned the crowd.
This old fraud has backup?
"I told you—you’d face a bloody disaster. But you just wouldn’t listen!" the old man said with a sly grin.
Ignoring him, the burly man glared at the young man who’d intervened.
"Who are you to him? Why help a swindler?"
The newcomer was Chen Yunxuan, acting on Chen Chang'an’s orders.
"This man is untouchable. Leave," Chen Yunxuan said coolly.
"Untouchable?"
"Don’t think you can scare me! My brother-in-law is a guard of the Nan Family!"
"Cross me, and he’ll make you regret it."
The Nan Family?
So this was Nan Family territory—Chen Yunxuan hadn’t realized.
"Hmph. Judging by your expression, you don’t even know who the Nan Family is."
"Now scram!"
The man lunged at Chen Yunxuan, who effortlessly kicked him away.
Bang!
The man crashed to the ground, spitting blood.
A bloody disaster—it had truly come to pass?
"No… this can’t be!"
"The seven days had already passed! How…?"
"Ah, have you forgotten? Seven days ago, you came in the afternoon, didn’t you?"
"You’re still one hour short—it hasn’t been a full seven days yet."
"I truly didn’t lie to you. If you hadn’t returned, this bloodshed wouldn’t have happened." The old man sighed helplessly.
"You’re messing with me, aren’t you? You’re fucking messing with me!"
"Just you wait! You’ll regret this!"
Hmm?
Wait?
"Then you can die now!"
Chen Yunxuan kept Chen Chang’an’s words firmly in mind—when cutting weeds, you must uproot them!
Since this fool dared to threaten him, there was no reason to let him live.
"See? I told you—disaster was coming."
"Everyone, you witnessed it, right? I’m no fraud. So… who’s next for a divination?"
g Yu was preparing for retirement when her organization decided to eliminate her. She transmigrated to a zombie apocalypse world. However, a tiny unexpected situation occurred: She somehow transformed into an adorable little girl?!
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."
transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day! Take one disciple: every day he gains 1 year of cultivation power. While others struggle through a year of bitter training, he gets the same just by sleeping through a single night. Take ten disciples: every day he gains 10 years of cultivation power. Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul—he breezes through all bottlenecks without lifting a finger. Take one hundred disciples: every day he gains 100 years of cultivation power. Even a Soul Transformation Venerable before him can’t survive a single blow. Take ten thousand disciples: every day he gains 10,000 years of cultivation power! With a wave of his hand, he topples empires. With a single step, he crushes the sacred grounds of the universe. ... While others fight tooth and nail for secret techniques, Lin Yan casually hands out Nascent Soul-level cultivation manuals as beginner textbooks. While others strain to find talented recruits, Lin Yan opens his doors to anyone—so long as they’re human. In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”
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.
