Jiang Che had also made a breakthrough!
After cultivating with Dong'er for a day, he successfully advanced from the peak of Transform Force to the half-step of Gang Force!
Jiang Che's cultivation talent was quite lacking, far inferior to a prodigy like Chen Ningshuang, who was leagues ahead of him.
Even though they cultivated together, Chen Ningshuang's efficiency was much higher than his, but Jiang Che had the system on his side.
His powerful internal energy flowed through his meridians, and the pure white... internal force gradually formed an indestructible protective aura around his body.
This was the difference between a grandmaster and an ordinary martial artist. The protective aura of a grandmaster could withstand bullets from ordinary handguns or even submachine guns!
If it were a grandmaster who specialized in body refinement, their protective aura would be even more terrifying, capable of resisting shots from small-caliber sniper rifles.
Jiang Che thought of his grandfather, a grandmaster at the Heavenly Force level. Could ordinary firearms even harm him anymore?
"Master, do you need me to do anything?"
Dong'er obediently clung to Jiang Che's arm, blinking her large eyes.
"No need, just stay like this," Jiang Che said, patting Dong'er's little head. It was even more satisfying than petting a cat!
But for some reason, every time he looked into Dong'er's eyes, he felt a sense of guilt.
Her gaze was too pure, like a clear spring where you could see straight to the bottom.
Sometimes, Jiang Che felt like he was being too shameless, taking advantage of even a little loli like Dong'er, who was gifted by the system.
...
When they went out for breakfast, Chen Ningshuang once again approached Jiang Che.
"Jiang Che, I need your help to cultivate!"
The girl's face was still slightly flushed as she spoke. A couple of days ago, during their cultivation session... she had grown accustomed to the rocket-like speed of her progress!
Although the subsequent sessions weren't as effective as the first one, which had propelled her to the lofty heights of a Gang Force grandmaster, the results were still impressive. A single session was equivalent to a month of hard cultivation on her own!
If she continued at her previous pace, it would take her decades to reach Heavenly Force. But with Jiang Che's help... she could become a grandmaster in just half a year!
By then, she could take revenge... but no, at this point, revenge didn't even matter anymore.
Jiang Che smiled playfully at Chen Ningshuang. "Look, you're in such a hurry again?"
He could see right through her little schemes.
He took Chen Ningshuang's small hand and sat her down on the sofa. "Ningshuang, you came late, so you're last in line... Your turn won't come until next month."
Chen Ningshuang panicked at Jiang Che's words.
"Jiang Che, I only need half a year to become a grandmaster! By then, I can protect you for life!"
Jiang Che chuckled. "Do you think I'm stupid? If you become a grandmaster... what happens to me? How do I know you won't harbor ill intentions?"
"If you become a grandmaster and my grandfather can't control you anymore, you might turn the tables and slap me to death. Who would I complain to then?"
Chen Ningshuang was frantic. "I don't want to kill you!"
"You don't? Haha... Who was it that kept muttering 'scoundrel, I'll kill you one day' before?"
"That was before! I don't want to kill you now. I... I don't hate you anymore," Chen Ningshuang struggled to explain.
It was clear that this girl was desperate to grow stronger!
"You don't hate me anymore? Could it be that you've actually fallen for me?"
"N-no, don't flatter yourself. I would never fall for you," Chen Ningshuang denied vehemently.
"You don't love me? Then you still want to kill me! Playing the 'King Goujian' card with me, huh?"
"No, I've let go of my hatred. This is just a transaction between us!"
"A transaction? What if I get tired of you? What will you do then?" Jiang Che smirked.
Get tired of her?
Chen Ningshuang's heart sank, and she felt a chill run through her.
That's right, she had never considered what would happen if Jiang Che grew bored of her.
"Ningshuang, I have so many girls around me. Whether it's Wan'er, Yaoyao, or any of the others, none of them are less beautiful than you, and they all love me!"
As Jiang Che spoke, Yu Wan'er, who was sitting on the sofa watching TV, poked her head out. "You pervert, who would love you? Stop deluding yourself."
Jiang Che's eyes narrowed as he glared at Yu Wan'er. Interrupting while I'm flirting, huh?
You little brat, making me lose face? You'll pay for this!
If your mouth can still speak tomorrow, I'll take your last name!
"Jiang Che, I..."
Chen Ningshuang was at a complete loss. On one hand, she wanted to grow stronger, but on the other, she refused to admit that she had developed feelings for Jiang Che.
"Tsk... Let me show you something."
Jiang Che pulled out his phone and played a pre-recorded video.
The video featured Chen Ningshuang, though only her enchanting face was visible.
"You... You filmed me?" Chen Ningshuang's face flushed with shame and anger.
"You say you don't love me? Then who's this little beauty in the video?"
Jiang Che's lips curled into a smile.
"I... I was just eager for strength. You wouldn't understand!"
Hmm~ I believe you. Not a single trace of desire, just pure thirst for power!
"Alright, I'm just messing with you."
Jiang Che gave Chen Ningshuang a playful pat.
"Even if you become a grandmaster, I'll still have ways to keep you in check."
Chen Ningshuang clenched her fists tightly. Every time she saw Jiang Che's smug grin, it made her blood boil.
After spending some effort to send Chen Ningshuang away, Jiang Che finally remembered Yu Wan'er!
"Yu! Wan! Er!"
"Three days without a beating, and you're already causing trouble, huh?"
But Yu Wan'er had already slipped away.
No matter how much she tried to escape, she couldn't evade the clutches of Jiang Che, the great demon king.
In the end, Jiang Che dragged her out of a closet.
Yu Wan'er: "(σ｀д′)σ (kicking wildly~)"
I'm done for, folks!
...
After lunch, Jiang Che followed Ye Mengyao to school.
He had been thinking about Shen Yu, the girl of destiny, for the past two days!
Ever since he met Wang Lili, Shen Yu had been given the short end of the stick, constantly being pulled away for school activities under various pretexts and often busy until 8 or 9 p.m.
She had no time to study.
Shen Yu was having a tough time. That morning, her gym teacher had made her run 20 laps around the field, nearly exhausting her to death.
"I probably won't be able to complete today's system task. Sigh~"
Life was hard, and Shen Yu sighed.
But just then, a faint voice whispered in her ear.
"System? What system?"
The sudden voice startled Shen Yu, but she was an extremely rational person. She slowly looked up, and when she saw who it was, her brows furrowed slightly.
Him?
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
spital. Good news: I've bound a system. Bad news: I'm still a baby. "Thirty years east of the river, thirty years west of the river, do not bully the middle-aged for being poor — Divorce Comeback System." "Your marriage may have failed, but your luck in love has never run dry. Your childhood sweetheart, out of contact for twenty years, reappears. Her beauty remains, yet her eyes are brimming with tears." [Listen to the childhood sweetheart's sorrowful story.] Chen Zhi looked down at the diaper he was wearing, then at the little childhood sweetheart crying her heart out beside him, and fell into deep thought. Can anyone relate? I'm having a midlife crisis at an age where even rolling over is a struggle.
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)
