Chen Ningshuang had racked her brains to cultivate and grow stronger.
Now that her power had increased enough to suppress Jiang Che, it also gave rise to some... less-than-honorable thoughts.
She wanted to kidnap Jiang Che and lock him away in some underground room—where he would belong to her alone.
"Hey, hey, hey! Chen Ningshuang, you can play around, but don’t even think about privatizing public property. This shared bicycle of mine belongs to everyone!"
Jiang Che saw right through her little scheme.
Though Chen Ningshuang was stronger than Jiang Che and could easily overpower him, all of that was contingent on his willingness.
If he refused, even a Transcendent-level expert wouldn’t be able to suppress him.
Chen Ningshuang pouted, but her audacity only grew.
Meanwhile, Dong'er, who had been sitting on the balcony basking in the sun while petting a cat, slowly turned her gaze toward them.
A terrifying aura flickered briefly—revealing her Mid-Grandmaster-level cultivation!
As the most obedient girl by Jiang Che’s side, Dong'er would never hesitate to act if he were in danger or being coerced.
She blinked her beautiful big eyes twice, then turned away.
Assessment complete—no threat to Master. Back to petting the cat.
Dong'er, with her silver hair, cuddled the transformed ragdoll cat, Su Mianmian, stroking its fur. This once-soulless girl seemed to be developing her own thoughts.

[Ding! Host successfully scammed Deputy Pavilion Master ‘Xu Rong,’ earning 10,000 Scam Points.]
"Ah!!! Damn you, Chen Hao! Now you’re scamming me too?!"
Xu Rong jumped up in shock, glaring at Chen Hao with burning eyes.
Chen Hao’s reputation in the headquarters had plummeted to rock bottom—barely anyone was willing to team up with him anymore.
They were all Children of Destiny, and none were fools. Most had already guessed the nature of his golden finger.
Chen Hao put on an innocent face. "Pavilion Master Xu, I swear it was an accident! I grabbed the wrong one..."
Xu Rong stared at Chen Hao’s apologetic expression, but the smirk on his lips never faded. That’s when he knew—he’d definitely been scammed.
His ability, Super Divine Gene, required fusing with animal traits. Earlier, Xu Rong had asked Chen Hao to fetch the ‘Chameleon Gene Serum’ from the lab, but the bastard handed him the ‘Donkey Gene Serum’ instead.
And so, an extremely awkward situation unfolded. Instead of optimizing his invisibility, a certain part of his body had been enhanced over tenfold!
His pants couldn’t even contain it—he had to wrap it around his waist.
For a man, this might be something to boast about, but having to tie it around his waist? That was just ridiculous!
"Ahem, Pavilion Master Xu, my bad. I’ll split the Scam Points with you, fifty-fifty."
"Deal!" Xu Rong’s expression instantly brightened.
Just then, Chen Hao’s system chimed again.
[Ding! System mission triggered.]
[Hire assassins from ‘Asura Gate’ to eliminate members of the Destiny Association. Each kill rewards 500,000 Scam Points; severe injuries reward 100,000 Scam Points... Mission classification: Top Secret.]
Chen Hao’s eyes widened.
Holy shit, a huge mission!
Hiring assassins to kill Destiny Association members—50,000 Scam Points per head! This system was downright extravagant!
But soon, Chen Hao’s excitement cooled.
"The Destiny Association is full of my sworn brothers, my closest comrades..."
"You’ll have to pay more!"
[Ding. Take it or leave it. If you won’t do it, there are plenty of other hosts who will. System unbinding in progress...]
Chen Hao panicked. "I’ll do it, I’ll do it! Dad, please don’t unbind! I’ll take the mission!"
The mere thought of his system abandoning him terrified him. Since binding with the Scam System, his strength had skyrocketed.
But he’d also learned its core rule—he had to scam others relentlessly. If he stopped, the system would start scamming him instead!
With a "better them than me" mentality, he’d embarked on a path where friendship was impossible.
"Chen Hao, you need to tone it down. The entire headquarters is on edge because of you. In the last two months, two Children of Destiny have died from your schemes. Now, lower-ranked members tremble at the sight of you..."
Xu Rong sighed. As much as he hated to admit it, even he felt uneasy around Chen Hao sometimes.
You never knew when he’d stab you in the back. Sure, there were rewards afterward, but no one wanted a backstabber lurking around.
"Oh, right. The Pavilion Master recently made contact with the higher-ups from the ‘Earth Pavilion.’ In the coming months, gates across the world will loosen, and the headquarters may receive a few slots to bring members to the Upper Realm."
"The Pavilion Master recommended your system to the Earth Pavilion’s leaders. They’re very interested because the items in your system shop are of an exceptionally high tier—even surpassing the Earth Pavilion’s level. Your system has immense potential... Understand?"
Xu Rong’s words made Chen Hao suck in a sharp breath, his eyes burning with ambition.
His system... was of a higher tier?
That meant his ceiling was higher—his future limitless!
As expected, Chen Hao was truly destined for greatness!
"Chen Hao will not betray the headquarters’ trust and nurturing!"
"Yeah, yeah. Just scam me less, alright?" Xu Rong waved him off.
"Focus on improving your strength in the next two months. Ideally, reach Grandmaster-level cultivation or S-rank in your supernatural abilities..."
Chen Hao nodded eagerly, already fantasizing about scamming even more powerful figures in the Earth Pavilion.
The stronger the victim, the more Scam Points he’d earn!
For example, scamming the clairvoyant Yang Ming had only netted him 20,000 Scam Points.
But casually scamming Xu Rong had yielded 10,000. If he’d gotten Xu Rong killed? The payout would’ve started at six digits!
And if his targets were from the Earth Pavilion or Heaven Pavilion? He didn’t even dare imagine the profits.
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)
ut it can buy an entire year of absolutely perfect training results! Su Yu stared at his empty wallet and decisively opened up various online loan platforms. “Borrow a thousand bucks! Recharge my vitality!” Boom! His vitality broke a hundred points, shattering the limits of the human body! “Borrow ten thousand bucks! Recharge my combat skills!” Boom! A basic punching technique so common it was everywhere instantly maxed out, revealing the ultimate assassination technique of Five Elements Unity—Inner Force!

With just two fingers, Su Yu snapped a steel staff reinforced with alloy. Staring at the killer’s stash of stolen cash—a staggering quarter-million dollars—he showed a corporate-sincere smile: “Thanks for the pre-exam gift pack, Mr. Zhao! I’m gonna go re-invest this!” Three days later, at the National Martial Arts College Entrance Exam, while everyone else struggled just to reach the passing line, Su Yu threw a single punch—and more than a thousand vitality points literally detonated the entire arena!
ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!
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.”
