"Master Jiang, someone is asking for you."
A company employee approached Jiang Che, giving a slight bow. She remained expressionless despite witnessing the intimate moment between Jiang Che and Leng Ningqiu.
Jiang Che didn’t bother hiding anything—after all, all these female employees were commercial puppets purchased from the system store.
True puppets indeed—just feed them, and they’d work tirelessly for 18 hours straight. The kind of super-workers every ruthless capitalist boss dreamed of!
"Who’s looking for me?"
Jiang Che slowly stood up, draping a blanket over Leng Ningqiu, who had already fallen asleep beside him.
"It’s... a man named Xu Mo."
"Xu Mo?"
Jiang Che raised an eyebrow. Of course, he’d heard of him.
The leader of the Fate’s Chosen Association—a fairly powerful Fate’s Chosen.
"But why would a so-called 'Chosen One' come looking for a villain like me? Does he have a death wish?"
"Still, might as well meet him."
......
Outside the company.
Xu Mo and his group had been waiting for quite some time.
"Chen Hao, once Young Master Jiang comes out, you go first and try to get close to him. After all, you’re practically his brother-in-law now," Xu Mo said shamelessly.
Behind Xu Mo, it wasn’t just Chen Hao—there were at least three to four hundred people, all dressed in black robes, giving off the vibe of a gang showdown.
That’s right. After being persuaded by Xu Rong and Chen Hao, Xu Mo had led the entire Fate’s Chosen Association to pledge allegiance to Jiang Che.
Of course, they knew where Jiang Che lived, but his home was practically a golden cage for his beloved. Ninety percent of his subordinates were single men—what if some idiot got a lecherous look in his eyes and pissed off Young Master Jiang? That would be the end of them.
And yet, Jiang Che had stayed holed up in the Jiang residence for over a week. How was he not exhausted?
A man with such formidable stamina—what guy wouldn’t envy him?
......
[Ding! Detected Fate’s Chosen ‘Xu Mo’.]
Jiang Che stepped out.
"You all... here to jump me?" he asked with a light chuckle.
"N-No! Of course not, Young Master Jiang! You must be joking..."
Xu Mo was practically trembling in fear. With Jiang Che’s status... how could they possibly dare to cause trouble for him?
Did they have a death wish?
"Young Master Jiang, we’re actually here to pledge ourselves to you. We know you’re a Heaven-Defying existence, but there’s no real conflict between us, right?" Xu Mo forced a laugh.
Still, the whole situation felt like lambs willingly walking into a tiger’s den.
Jiang Che raised an eyebrow, glancing at the massive crowd of Fate’s Chosen behind Xu Mo.
Honestly, they were all pretty pathetic.
Most of them were either miracle doctors, fortune-tellers, antique appraisers, or nouveau riche types—trash-tier systems that couldn’t keep up with the times.
Even if Jiang Che acquired these system templates, they’d be useless.
Frankly, they weren’t even qualified to be his lackeys.
"Too weak. I don’t need trash under my command."
Jiang Che didn’t bother sparing their feelings in the slightest.
At that moment, a young man stepped forward from the crowd, indignation written all over his face.
"Young Master Jiang!!! I’m not trash! I have the potential of an immortal! I’m actually the reincarnation of a celestial being from the Upper Realm!"
"Tch. So what if you’ve got a 'Bullsht System'?" Jiang Che shot him a sidelong glance.
[Ding! Detected Fate’s Chosen ‘Wang Kai’, bound to the Bullsht System—grows stronger the more he lies.]
[Fate Level: 7]
To be fair, this guy wasn’t half bad. He might actually be worth recruiting.
Pair him up with that little bro Jiang Ruoxu—one spews nonsense, the other flexes. A match made in heaven.
"Huh? Y-You know about my system?!"
Wang Kai’s face instantly turned ghostly pale.
His bullsht had been exposed!
Truly, a Heaven-Defying existence was terrifying.
In front of Jiang Che, he had no secrets at all.
[Alright, Xu Mo, right? Your potential isn’t bad—a check-in system? But your system’s grade is too low. Let me upgrade it for you.]
Jiang Che sent the message directly into Xu Mo’s mind.
"Wha—what?!"
Xu Mo suddenly exclaimed, eyes widening in shock!
Up... upgrade what?!
Had he heard that right?!
Upgrade a system?!
Systems could be upgraded?!
Jiang Che yawned, casually spending 1,000,000 points to purchase a system template.
Almost instantly, Xu Mo heard a crisp ding.
[Ding! System... system upgrading in progress... upgrade successful!]
[Ding! System has unlocked a new store function! Check-in locations have been reset!]
Xu Mo’s mind went completely blank.
But at the same time, a bone-chilling realization crept into his heart.
He could actually manipulate systems?!
Xu Mo took one look at his system store and nearly passed out.
Everything inside was top-tier!
Half this stuff wasn’t even available in the Fate’s Chosen Association’s elite-tier store.
"Young... Young Master Jiang?"
[Shh...]
Jiang Che smiled faintly, his expression profound and enigmatic.
But to Xu Mo, that smile might as well have belonged to a god or a demon.
Convinced. Completely convinced.
He’d thought Jiang Che, as a Heaven-Defying existence, was just a cut above the rest. Who could’ve imagined he could control systems?
Even casually wave a hand and upgrade someone else’s system?
Game over. How could anyone compete with that?
Hell, maybe their systems were all created by Young Master Jiang in the first place!
Xu Mo stole a glance at Chen Hao beside him.
This guy had a "Screw-You-Dad System," and his sister was Jiang Che’s woman. Could it be...
Holy sht! The more he thought about it, the scarier it got!
Xu Mo didn’t dare dwell on it. From now on, he’d keep his distance from Chen Hao.
"Young Master Jiang!!! From this day forward, I, Xu Mo, will charge into battle for you! I’ll lay down my life without hesitation!"
Xu Mo suddenly dropped to his knees, so abruptly that even Chen Hao and the others were startled.
But if the leader was kneeling, they had no choice but to follow suit.
Jiang Che: "..."
...
In the end, the entire Fate’s Chosen Association became Jiang Che’s underlings.
But Jiang Che couldn’t be bothered to manage them—might as well let Chen Hao, the walking jinx, use them for experience points.
The real prizes were high-level Fate’s Chosen like Xu Mo and Xu Rong.
Only those with high-tier fate were worthy of serving under him.
"Oh, Young Master Jiang! Since you’re so powerful... would you like to visit our Fate’s Chosen Association headquarters? We have many mysterious artifacts passed down from ancient times!"
"And we have our own system store, filled with rare treasures!"
Jiang Che’s eyes lit up.
Now that’s a conversation worth having!
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)
ose... to cooperate with the protagonist! Shen Yuan: I have a system! Protagonist: What? System: Holy crap, you're just spilling it out like that? Shen Yuan: Let's team up, we'll split the system rewards! Protagonist: Fifty-fifty split? Shen Yuan: No way! Protagonist: What!? I'm the one getting beaten up, and I don't get half? Shen Yuan: Forty-sixty split, I get forty, you get sixty! Protagonist: Deal! Big brother, come on, hit me! As long as it doesn't kill me, beat me like you mean it! Shen Yuan: Don't worry... I will definitely protect all of you! No one but me can lay a finger on you! Guard our Heaven's Chosen Ones! I'm the only one allowed to bully them!
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!
