Jiang Yunli glared fiercely at Chen Ningshuang before striding past her and heading straight into the house, with Jiang Yuan following closely by her side.
Upon entering the villa, the two of them were utterly stunned.
Jiang Yunli’s eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at Jiang Che, her gaze filled with questions. She was completely shocked!
What on earth was going on here?
“Ahem... We’re short on help at home. Aunt Chen couldn’t handle all the cooking alone, so I hired a lot of servants,” Jiang Che explained, his usual thick skin faltering slightly as he felt a bit awkward.
After a moment of silence, Jiang Yunli and Jiang Yuan exchanged glances.
“Son, you really need to exercise some restraint,” Jiang Yunli said earnestly. Although she longed to have a grandchild, she didn’t want to see her son suffer from kidney deficiency at such a young age!
Chen Ningshuang, standing nearby, muttered under her breath, “Hmph, you lecherous scoundrel. One day, you’ll exhaust yourself to death.”
Unfortunately for her, Jiang Yunli overheard the remark.
In an instant, Jiang Yunli’s anger flared. Without a second thought, she slapped Chen Ningshuang across the face!
The crisp sound of the slap echoed in the room.
As a Transform Force expert, Chen Ningshuang could have easily dodged the blow, but she didn’t dare to.
“What did you say? How dare you speak ill of my son?”
Despite her usual gentle demeanor, Jiang Yunli was no pushover. As the daughter of the prestigious Jiang Family in the Capital City, she was far from being a soft target.
Chen Ningshuang didn’t dare to respond. She simply covered her cheek, her head bowed, as tears began to fall. She felt utterly humiliated—constantly bullied and ordered around by Jiang Che, and now even slapped by his mother.
It was all too much to bear!
“Hmph! You don’t know your place,” Jiang Yunli sneered.
Jiang Yuan quickly stepped in to calm his wife. “Alright, alright, dear. Don’t get so worked up.”
This scene was witnessed by Yu Wan’er, whose face paled slightly.
It seemed that in front of Jiang Yunli, one must never speak ill of Jiang Che, or else she would instantly transform into a fearsome mother-in-law!
From that moment on, the once-sassy little brat Yu Wan’er immediately turned into a well-behaved girl.
...
“What brings you here?” Jiang Che asked, lightly rubbing his temples.
Jiang Yunli smiled brightly. “Son, I heard you’ve had some kind of extraordinary encounter? You’ve become a Transform Force expert?”
Her eyes sparkled with excitement.
“Yes, that’s right!” Jiang Che nodded.
“Ah, I always wanted you to live an ordinary life,” Jiang Yunli sighed. As a member of the Jiang Family, even if Jiang Che’s talent was lacking, Jiang Yunhuang could have used resources to push him to the level of Transform Force.
But Jiang Yunli had never wanted her son to be caught up in a life of constant fighting and danger.
“Wuwuwu... My poor son, you’ve suffered so much.”
The main reason Jiang Yunli didn’t want her son to practice ancient martial arts was her fear of him enduring hardship. With such poor innate talent, he would have to work much harder than others to achieve anything.
But life had other plans.
Meanwhile, Chen Ningshuang was struck as if by lightning!
She stood there, completely dumbfounded. What had she just heard?
Jiang Che was a Transform Force-level martial artist?
How was that possible? Wasn’t he supposed to be a talentless waste?
Over the past few days, she had secretly assessed Jiang Che’s meridians and bone structure. His meridians were severely blocked, and his talent was far inferior to hers. He was a complete failure!
She was utterly baffled, but she kept her silence.
......
Jiang Che quickly realized why his parents had made a special trip to see him.
After Jiang Yunhuang returned home, he had bragged extensively about his grandson, claiming that Jiang Che was no talentless waste but a top-tier genius who had already reached the level of Transform Force.
The elders of the Jiang Family were clamoring to meet him.
It was all rather exasperating.
“Fine, I’ll go to the Capital City tomorrow. It’s no big deal,” Jiang Che said.
In fact, he had been planning to send some “local specialties” to his grandfather.
After killing Su Han, he had obtained a bottle of “Longevity Pills,” containing 20 pills in total. Each pill could extend one’s lifespan by ten years. During Jiang Yunhuang’s last visit, Jiang Che had noticed that although the grandmaster appeared robust, his lifespan was actually quite limited.
After all, even as a grandmaster, a martial artist’s lifespan wasn’t significantly longer than that of an ordinary person—they simply had better physical fitness.
Moreover, Jiang Yunhuang had some hidden ailments. Although the Longevity Pills were precious, Jiang Che wasn’t stingy. With the Villain System at his disposal, it was entirely possible for him to lead his entire family and his women to eternal life in the future.
“By the way, Mom, Dad, take these two bottles of elixir. They can help with beauty and skincare,” Jiang Che said, handing over the “Eternal Youth Elixir” to his parents.
He didn’t mention that the elixir could grant eternal youth, as explaining it would be too troublesome, and they probably wouldn’t believe him anyway.
“Oh!”
Jiang Yunli and Jiang Yuan trusted their son completely and drank the elixir without hesitation.
After watching them consume the elixir, Jiang Che nodded in satisfaction.
They chatted for a while longer, and Jiang Yunli took the opportunity to get to know all of her future daughters-in-law.
“Wan’er... come here! You’re still as adorable as ever!” Jiang Yunli picked up Yu Wan’er and even planted a kiss on the little girl’s cheek.
“Sister Jiang...”
“Still calling me ‘sister’? Shouldn’t you start calling me ‘Mom’?” Jiang Yunli had always dreamed of having such a soft and cute daughter.
Yu Wan’er blushed deeply and lowered her head. Clearly, she wasn’t ready to make that change.
If Jiang Yunli ever found out that Yu Wan’er constantly badmouthed Jiang Che in private... she would be in big trouble.
“Bai Qiangwei, right? What a lovely name! This is a jade bracelet passed down through the Jiang Family, specifically for daughters-in-law.”
“Yao Yao, although there were some misunderstandings before, I still believe you’re a good girl. This is a jadeite bracelet passed down through the Jiang Family, specifically for daughters-in-law.”
“Qiaoqiao, I really like cheerful girls like you. This is a gold bracelet passed down through the Jiang Family, specifically for daughters-in-law.”
(Jiang Yunli had previously given Yu Wan’er a bracelet in Chapter 38.)
...
Jiang Yunli had clearly come prepared, with jade bracelets, jadeite bracelets, gold bracelets...
A variety of bracelets, ensuring a diversified approach.
Even Dong’er received a dark red agate bracelet. The dark red agate looked stunning against the little girl’s fair skin, perfectly complementing her delicate features.
Dong’er looked down at the bracelet on her wrist, blinking a few times as if trying to understand why such a thing was being placed on her arm.
She even poked the bracelet lightly with her tiny fingers. The dark red agate shimmered beautifully, matching the enchanting purple hue of Dong’er’s eyes.
“Son, do you have any rooms left at home? How about tonight...”
Jiang Yuan’s mouth twitched, and he quickly pulled his wife away.
“Son, I’ll drive over tomorrow to take you to the Capital City... We’ll head out now.”
He was afraid his wife would drag him along as a third wheel!
And with that, they made a swift exit.
After they left, the girls collectively sighed in relief.
Qin Qiaoqiao and the others were thrilled. Did this mean they had gained their mother-in-law’s approval?
But two girls were feeling miserable—Bai Jie and Chen Ningshuang!
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.

lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts... "This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore." Qi Yuan: Ah, no one told me that my awakened ability isn't telepathy, but rather the stronger my enemies imagine me to be, the stronger I truly become. PS: Zhou Hai in the first chapter is not the protagonist.
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.”
