"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!"
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.”
end. Thus one must continue to cultivate, and become a saint or great emperor, in order to prolong one's life. Chen Xia, however, completely reversed this. Since his transmigration, he has gained immortality, and also a system that awards him with attribute points for every year he lives. Thus between the myriad worlds, the legend of an unparalleled senior appeared. "A gentleman takes revenge; it is never too late even after ten thousand years." "When you were at your peak I yielded, now in your old age I shall trample on you." - Chen Xia
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."
for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
