"Deputy Pavilion Master, are we really going to be the mole within the association?" Chen Hao asked in a hushed voice.
Xu Rong glanced sideways at Chen Hao, his expression scrutinizing yet tinged with disdain.
This guy was truly rebellious to the core. If not for his own quick wits, Xu Rong would have been screwed over by this troublemaker countless times already.
"Chen Hao! What do you mean by 'mole'? This is called 'abandoning darkness for the light'!" Xu Rong snapped sharply.
He was genuinely coveting the essence blood in Jiang Che's possession!
True Dragon essence blood, Immortal Phoenix essence blood... Though these were also sold in the Destiny Association's system store, their prices were exorbitant—so high that even selling himself wouldn't cover the cost!
Moreover, the Destiny Association's hierarchy was rigidly stratified. Members of the Human Pavilion could only purchase items from the Human Pavilion store.
Only by ascending to the Earth Pavilion could one unlock higher-tier treasures. Items like True Dragon essence blood were exclusively available in the Heaven Pavilion store.
By the time he had the strength of a Heaven Pavilion big shot, would he even need something as trivial as True Dragon essence blood?
Only by sticking close to Young Master Jiang could he seize the opportunity to rise to greatness!
"A true man born between heaven and earth cannot remain subservient forever!"
"But then again... When under someone else's roof, one must bow their head."
Xu Rong then gave Chen Hao a thoughtful look. "Chen Hao... I heard your younger sister has become one of Young Master Jiang's women, right?"
Chen Hao: "..."
Why bring up such a sore subject?
"Ah, Xiao Chen, you should count yourself lucky. Right now, I’d kill to have a pretty sister to introduce to Young Master Jiang."
If he could forge a familial connection with Jiang Che, wouldn’t the young master spare him at least a drop of essence blood out of respect for his sister?
Honestly, fusing just one drop of True Dragon essence blood would instantly grant him the True Dragon bloodline, elevate him to the Divine Transformation realm, and awaken the True Dragon’s inherited techniques—his future would be limitless!
Chen Hao fell silent.
Using Shuang'er’s name to ask that bastard Jiang Che for help?
Absolutely not!
Chen Hao had principles. Though he possessed the "Troll God System" and trolled heaven, earth, and the very air itself, he would never, ever troll his own blood sister!
That was his bottom line!
"Xiao Chen, I plan to persuade our Pavilion Master in the next couple of days. After all, Jiang Che’s destiny is too lofty—he might already be at the Heaven Pavilion level. If our Destiny Association opposes him... it’s just not worth it!"
Xu Rong frowned. Jiang Che’s mission for him was to turn the entire Destiny Association.
"Huh? But will the Pavilion Master agree? Jiang Che is a Fate Defier! Having a group of Destiny’s Chosen submit to a major villain? Does that even make sense?"
Xu Rong shook his head. "The Pavilion Master will likely agree. After all, many in our Destiny Association are cultivating the Human Emperor Scripture. From what I know... even the Pavilion Master has been secretly practicing it!"
Chen Hao’s eyes widened. "Even the Pavilion Master is cultivating it?"
Xu Rong nodded, then sighed. "Sadly... my bloodline is too muddled to practice the Human Emperor Scripture."
Just then, a swirl of black mist emerged behind them!
A figure clad in black robes stepped out slowly.
"Pavilion Master Xu!" Chen Hao immediately bowed respectfully.
Though he had fantasized countless times about scheming against the Pavilion Master, the vast gap in their strength meant he could only entertain such thoughts in his mind.
"P-Pavilion Master!" Xu Rong stiffened, feeling the awkwardness of a student caught badmouthing their homeroom teacher.
Xu Mo’s expression remained calm. "I overheard your conversation earlier. Jiang Che’s stature is indeed extraordinary... His system’s tier likely matches the Heaven Pavilion’s, and he has that mysterious master. He’s absolutely not someone we can afford to provoke at this stage."
"Someone of Jiang Che’s destiny, once he ascends to the Nine Heavens, will inevitably draw the attention of the Heaven Pavilion’s elites. There’s even a chance he’ll join the Heaven Pavilion and become one of us. That’s precisely why I’ve never moved against him."
Xu Mo’s words left Chen Hao and Xu Rong speechless.
Are you sure it’s because you don’t want to fight... and not because you can’t beat him?
"Besides, Jiang Che’s Human Emperor Scripture is undeniably useful. Everyone’s cultivating it... I’ve also been meaning to discuss terms with him."
Xu Mo sighed softly.
As the Pavilion Master of the Human Pavilion, he had naturally investigated Jiang Che, this Fate Defier, extensively.
The more he dug, the more alarmed he became—especially regarding those alchemy furnaces Jiang Che had produced. Shouldn’t such furnaces exist only in the Nine Heavens?
Moreover, in the Nine Heavens, these alchemy furnaces were as tightly controlled as printing presses in the Dragon Nation, monopolized by the Destiny Association’s upper echelons.
This alone spoke volumes about the Destiny Association’s influence in the Nine Heavens!
The Nine Heavens consisted of three thousand realms per heaven, with three hundred sixty provinces per realm.
And their Destiny Association had a Human Pavilion branch in every province, an Earth Pavilion branch in every realm, and a Heaven Pavilion branch in every heaven!
They amassed staggering wealth in the Nine Heavens through these alchemy furnaces—how else could their association’s storehouse hold so many supreme treasures?
The fact that Jiang Che could produce alchemy furnaces proved he had ties to the Destiny Association in the Nine Heavens!
What if they antagonized Jiang Che fiercely in the mortal world, only to ascend later and discover he was actually the reincarnation of some Heaven Pavilion supreme elder slumming it in the mortal realm?
How embarrassing would that be?
"Enough. Let’s convene an assembly now. I’ll brief everyone on Jiang Che’s situation..."
Xu Mo exhaled wearily.
Soon, hundreds of Destiny’s Chosen had gathered in the association’s headquarters conference hall.
A few others were still overseas on missions.
......
"So, this is the situation. I know many of you don’t have the best impression of Jiang Che, but with the spiritual revival underway..."
Before Xu Mo could finish, voices rose from the crowd.
"Not at all! I’ve been wanting to pledge myself to Young Master Jiang for ages!"
"Pavilion Master, if we join Young Master Jiang, how many pills will we get per month?"
"Pavilion Master, can you settle last month’s wages first? I’m just 5,000 points short of buying a Skybreak Pill!"
The Destiny Association, bluntly put, treated low-tier Destiny’s Chosen as cheap labor. If you had a decent system store, things were better—but without value? You were just another wage slave!
A divine doctor returned from the mountains? Your schedule would be packed solid! The Dragon Nation’s elite and nobility were plentiful—slack off, and your monthly point salary got docked!
A tycoon protagonist? Get ready to bleed gold regularly. Slacking? Salary points deducted!
A reincarnated pure love protagonist? Reborn to make up for past regrets with your childhood sweetheart? Forget it! Send that sweetheart to Young Master Jiang posthaste! ...Well, Young Master Jiang probably isn’t lacking in women anymore.
Your average divine doctor protagonist peaked at the Grandmaster realm before their story ended. But the Destiny Association’s resources could push people all the way to the Skybreak stage.
Breaking through the Heavenly Limit can extend one's lifespan by several centuries, which is why many low-tier Chosen Ones are willing to endure hardships and toil away at menial jobs!
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.”
rowess are unmatched, commanding a million-strong army! Yet, the Emperor wants to depose him for the sake of a false prince? Hold on, are you throwing me into some female-oriented romance plot?

The False Prince: "Although I am not the biological son, Father and Mother love me more. The throne should be mine!" The Female Lead: "Qin Xiao, you are the Emperor, and I am a commoner. If you wish to marry me, you must abdicate. Otherwise, you will never have me!" The Empress: "After we divorce, you must give me half the empire!" The Transmigrator Consort: "You worthless Emperor, why should I kneel to you? All men are equal—I advise you to be kind!" The Great General: "The enemy general is my childhood sweetheart. For her sake, I willingly abandon the frontier defenses!" The Retired Emperor: "Although Yu'er was adopted, I prefer him. Qin Xiao, you should abdicate and let him become Emperor!" ... Very well!

Why would I bother reasoning with you? Seal the gates! Leave none alive!
agon king storylines. At the start, I obtained the "Ultimate Lackey System" - the more I act as a lackey, the stronger I become. What else could I do? I chose to become the personal henchman of the ultimate villain, Su Muwan. I provoke all sorts of chosen ones, snatch away their opportunities, and commit every evil deed imaginable. You ask who's behind me? Hmph! You're not worthy of knowing my lady's name! ...... ....... I am Su Muwan, the eldest daughter of the Su family. Since childhood, I've possessed extraordinary talent in martial arts, which led to my arrogant and domineering personality in my past life. I was even foolish enough to repeatedly challenge those favored by heaven, ultimately resulting in a tragic death. In this life, I must behave and absolutely cannot walk the same path again!! However... SLAP!! "So you're the Dragon King, huh?!" When I saw my little lackey swagger over and viciously slap the Dragon King who was hiding his identity, I felt my heart sink. Su Muwan's suspended heart finally died as she watched Qin Luo, her utterly loyal lackey, standing before her. She fainted on the spot from shock. Heaven is determined to destroy me!! (Pure love 1v1, light-hearted, no angst, single female lead, villain, reincarnation, lackey)
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.
