Su Shan's confidence was shattered overnight.
With solid evidence, the higher-ups quickly sent someone to arrest him.
The online public opinion was as tumultuous as ever.
"Father, you've ruined me!"
This was Su Shan's last words before being taken away for questioning.
He hadn't actually planned to get involved in the first place, knowing that sheltering a nephew who committed a crime... if caught, would mean spending the rest of his life in prison.
But he couldn't resist his father's heartfelt pleas, even to the point of kneeling. After all, they were family—how could he not help?
And so, he ended up ruining his own son's future. By now, there probably wasn't even anyone left to take care of him in his old age.
With the Su family's downfall, Lin Yu... naturally, was expelled from school yet again.
A so-called chosen one, a dragon unleashed from the mountains, a personal bodyguard to the school beauties, and he's been expelled twice... the total time he spent at school added up to no more than three days.
Lin Yu even spent five or six days in detention...
Damn it! This Su family is such a bunch of waste! What are they even doing? They're the head of the education bureau, for crying out loud? Absolute garbage!
For the second time, Lin Yu started packing his bags, ready to hit the road again.
"Oh, oh, oh, isn't this Lin Yu? What's up? Why are you getting expelled again?"
As a villain, taunting the protagonist is a must.
Jiang Che's smug voice echoed once more.
"You..." Lin Yu's patience was wearing thin.
"Wait... it was you! You're the one who brought down the Su family, aren't you?" Lin Yu wasn't entirely stupid.
But Jiang Che didn't say much, just smirked even more arrogantly.
"I'm gonna kill you!"
The leg he had been clinging to so desperately was suddenly cut off, and he was thrown out along with it.
Furious, Lin Yu's eyes turned red, and he charged forward without thinking... throwing a punch!
However... how could he possibly be a match for Jiang Che now?
In terms of speed and strength, Middle Stage Dark Force was no match for Late Stage Dark Force.
Jiang Che kicked out with one swift motion, requiring no technique whatsoever.
"Bang!"
Lin Yu was sent flying, crashing into several desks before landing on the ground...
"Hehe... Jiang Che, you're done for! You hit me! Hahaha!"
Lin Yu, in his delirium, picked up his phone and dialed the police, mimicking Jiang Che's earlier actions.
"Police! Someone's trying to kill me! He's almost beaten me to death, hurry up and save me~"
Jiang Che: "......"
Well, well, the so-called chosen one is learning from me, huh?
But kid, this trick doesn't work for just anyone!
After putting down his phone, Lin Yu burst into laughter, pointing viciously at Jiang Che.
"What can you do? You beat me up like this... and you'll still end up in jail! That kick of yours... definitely left me with serious injuries. You're waiting for your prison sentence!"
Jiang Che didn't bother responding. Lin Yu was already on the verge of madness.
......
The police arrived quickly.
This time, the person in charge was none other than Captain Li.
"Mr. Jiang, nice to see you again!" Captain Li nodded to Jiang Che.
"Hey, hey, hey... I'm over here! Jiang Che attacked me! He beat me up so badly! I suspect several of my ribs are broken!"
Lin Yu lay on the ground, groaning in pain, trying to garner sympathy.
Captain Li frowned, glancing at Lin Yu on the ground. "Isn't this the guy I arrested last time?"
"You're saying... Mr. Jiang attacked you? And did this to you?" Captain Li asked.
"Yes, yes, yes, it was him!"
"Evidence?"
"Ev... evidence? Can't you see my condition...?" Lin Yu spat out a mouthful of blood.
"But we still need evidence."
"There's surveillance! Look at the... the... camera?" Lin Yu raised his hand to point at the classroom's surveillance camera, only to find the camera's lens was gone...
The situation was incredibly awkward!
"And there are witnesses! All these classmates saw Jiang Che attack me!" Lin Yu screamed desperately, looking hopefully at the surrounding students.
"Help me testify! It was Jiang Che who attacked me!"
Most of the students asked were female, and the girls at Shilan School mostly came from middle-class or wealthier families. They had zero interest in a poor guy like Lin Yu.
"I didn't see anything. Did you see Jiang Che attack him?"
"Neither did I!"
The girls shook their heads one by one.
"Pfft——" Lin Yu completely broke down.
"Alright, this student, come with us to the police station," Captain Li said.
"Why? Why me? Shouldn't it be Jiang Che going to jail?" Lin Yu was furious.
When he attacked someone, he went to jail; when he was attacked, he still went to jail.
Is there any justice? Is there any law?
Jiang Che chuckled lightly, then walked over to Lin Yu, crouched down, and patted his shoulder, whispering softly in his ear.
"When you're out in the world, you need power and a backing. You're just a small-time nobody."
Jiang Che's words were the final straw that broke the camel's back. Lin Yu was so enraged that his eyes rolled back.
He fainted on the spot.
"Forget it, let's send him to the hospital first!"
The so-called chosen one, a Middle Stage Dark Force expert, was literally beaten to the point of spitting blood by Jiang Che.
That must be a first.
his freshman year, Su Bai accidentally bound the "Indulgence Tycoon System." 【Sleeping in? Reward: +$1,000】 【Spent $288 at a street barbecue stall?

"Wuwu~ Big Brother is so good to me! I’ll become a scientist to repay you!" When the genius girl got bullied by a shady professor? Su Bai casually dropped a billion-dollar investment, forcing the university to grovel and beg for her return. A company’s funding chain collapsing? Su Bai smirked—cash was the one thing he’d never run out of. Years later, when people traced the rise of the AI prodigy beauty, who was the man behind her success? Not just that—Su Bai also became the tsundere campus belle’s unattainable dream, the contrast senior’s daily necessity, and the beautiful counselor’s emotional anchor…
ions, keeping it grounded and realistic】 After quitting his job, office worker Su Yang accidentally binds with the "Enjoy Life System." As the name suggests, simply by indulging in life's pleasures, he can earn random rewards from the system—no need to spend money on beautiful women or grovel before anyone. Just enjoy, and the money follows, making it all about effortless fun. The system comes with a scanning feature, allowing him to establish a favorability bond with women rated 85 points or above. Every 20-point increase in favorability unlocks additional rewards. After suffering through over twenty years of hardship, Su Yang trembles with excitement, his dull eyes suddenly gleaming with newfound hope. "Enjoy life? How hard could that be?"
to panic—he has a system. As long as an investment target dies, he can claim a reward. And since he is immortal, the one thing he has plenty of is time. ... Countless years later. “Immortal Emperor of Longevity? I invested in him.” “Supreme Celestial Venerable? I invested in him.” “Undying Empress? I invested in her.” “...” “Heh. Once they’ve all died, even the Heavenly Dao will have to kneel and call me Dad.”
nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
