"Elder Supreme, rest assured, I've already taken care of it!"
Chen Chang'an hadn't stepped outside for three days. There was no other choice—even if he could evade the people outside his door, many in Skypride City still had their eyes fixed on him with ill intent.
This piece of intelligence was brought back by Da Huang after a visit to the pleasure house.
Outstanding!
So outstanding it drove people mad!
When Chen Chang'an learned the issue had been resolved, he couldn't help but smile in relief.
Finally… freedom?
"Well done."
"What's your name?"
"I’ll make sure the Sect Master nurtures you properly." Chen Chang'an gave an approving glance at the man before him.
"You flatter me, Elder Supreme."
"This lowly one is Wei Shufen, from—"
"That’s enough. Just the name will do."
"Yes, thank you, Elder Supreme."
"No need for thanks. You’ve earned it."
"Then, Elder Supreme, I shall take my leave."
"Mm. Go ahead."
With this matter settled, Chen Chang'an exhaled deeply. After all, this was his first time dealing with such a situation.
Even back in the Profound Realm, he’d never faced anything like this.
Was it that the people of the Profound Realm lacked discernment, or were those of the Ancient Immortal Domain just too unrestrained?
"Old Qi, have those old fogies arrived yet?"
Ever since Qi Shiyuan came to Skypride City, he’d been spending his days at Chen Chang'an’s place instead of his own. Chen Chang'an hadn’t commented on it.
Hearing the question, Qi Shiyuan replied, "Judging by the timing, they should arrive within the next couple of days."
"So, have you figured out how to deal with them?"
"But… do you really not remember anything about what you did back then?"
The truth about Chen Chang'an’s past deeds wasn’t widely known. After all, such matters were far from honorable—neither the perpetrator nor the victims wanted them spread around.
"Let me say it again: those things weren’t done by me. Not me."
"Fine, fine, it wasn’t you. You’ve reincarnated, so you get the final say."
"Besides, whether you admit it or not, they all believe it was you."
"But this time, your test results might have been a bit too… eye-catching."
"They’ll be on guard now. It won’t be easy to pull anything off." Qi Shiyuan sighed helplessly.
"No worries. It all depends on how the wager is set."
"No matter their strength or how cautious they are."
"As long as the bet… never mind, no point explaining to you. You didn’t pay tuition, so I won’t teach you."
What the hell?
He’s keeping secrets from me now?
"Brother Chen, haven’t I treated you well?"
"You’ve eaten and drunk your fill at my Qi family’s expense, used up so many resources, borrowed so many spirit stones from me—have I ever complained?"
"And you say I haven’t paid tuition?"
"Haven’t I paid enough?" Qi Shiyuan fumed.
"So, if I teach you, all those debts are cleared?"
"Yes. Teach me, and everything’s settled. The spirit stones you borrowed? Consider them gone."
"Deal. I’ll teach you."
Seeing Chen Chang'an agree so readily, Qi Shiyuan froze. Damn it… did I just get scammed again?
Did I… just lose out once more?
Qi Shiyuan gave Chen Chang'an a strange look, then consoled himself inwardly: Those spirit stones were a lost cause anyway. If I can learn something useful, it’s worth it.
That’s right. This time, I didn’t lose. Absolutely didn’t lose.
"Brother Chen, enlighten me." Qi Shiyuan looked at him expectantly.
"When a man is shameless… he is invincible!"
"These six words—if you can truly grasp their meaning."
"They’ll serve you for life. A timeless truth."
Hearing this, Qi Shiyuan was stunned. After all that investment… this is what I get? Six lousy words?
Furious, he glared at Chen Chang'an, only to find the man staring back with utmost sincerity. Could it be… that he was overthinking this?
When a man is shameless… he is invincible?
When a man is shameless… he is invincible!
Holy shit!
This… actually makes sense!
After pondering deeply, Qi Shiyuan suddenly realized the profundity behind those six words.
Watching him lost in thought, Chen Chang'an patted his shoulder. "Study hard. Even if you grasp just a fraction of what I know, it’ll last you a lifetime."
Six simple words had opened Qi Shiyuan’s eyes to a whole new world.
"Big bro, is he really this easy to fool?"
"A few words, and he’s completely bamboozled?" Da Huang asked, astonished.
"You understand nothing."
"Let me tell you, these six words are anything but simple."
"The wisdom behind them runs deep."
Runs deep?
Where?
"When a man is shameless, he is invincible"? Isn’t that just six plain words?
"You don’t see it because you’ve already… mastered this path."
Da Huang’s shamelessness was on par with Chen Chang'an’s, so the phrase held no novelty for him.
"Let’s go."
"Those people should be arriving soon."
"It’s time we headed to the Skypride Tower."
"I want to see just who’s on that overall ranking list."
Da Huang gave Chen Chang'an a peculiar look. "Big bro, are you sure you want to go out?"
Hm?
What’s that supposed to mean?
Da Huang’s words carried hidden implications.
"I can’t go out?" Chen Chang'an frowned.
"Well… it’s not that you can’t."
"You just need to be… mentally prepared."
Mentally prepared?
For what?
For the first time, Chen Chang'an couldn’t decipher Da Huang’s insinuations.
It wasn’t until he actually stepped outside that he understood what Da Huang had meant.
In Skypride City now, the women who had once hounded Chen Chang'an were gone. Though some still glared at him with resentment, none were throwing themselves at him anymore.
What Chen Chang'an never expected, however, was that men… men were now batting their eyes at him!
What the hell?!
What kind of nonsense is this?!
"Da Huang, tell me. What exactly have you heard these past two days?"
Chen Chang'an hadn’t left his residence, but Da Huang had been busy gathering intel.
"Well… it’s nothing much, really."
"Just some rumors about your… unconventional preferences."
"But wasn’t this your idea?"
Hearing this, Chen Chang'an suddenly grinned—though the smile was downright chilling.
"Good!"
"Very good!"
"What a brilliant solution, Wei Shufen."
"So this is how you fixed things, huh?"
"I’ll remember you for this!"
with countless casualties. As a top-tier gamer, Liu Xuan volunteered to join the fight, intending to dominate with his skills, but instead he obtained the hidden class: [Pacifist]. Unable to attack. Unable to use active skills. Fortunately, with each level gained, he acquired a new passive skill. And so, armed with a body full of passives, Liu Xuan slaughtered his way through the battlefield of ten thousand races! [You attacked Liu Xuan] [You gained the debuffs: 'Poison', 'Fear', 'Burning', 'Bleeding', 'Freeze', 'Silence', etc.] [Your attack speed has been reduced by 99%] [Your armor and magic resistance have been reduced by 99%] Warriors of the Ten Thousand Races: How the hell am I supposed to fight this?!
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)
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.
