Jiang Hong was utterly dumbfounded.
Had he ever said such things?
Well... upon reflection, he had actually said that damn line!
Since ascending to the rank of Great Emperor, he hadn’t felt this speechless in years, but now he was struggling to keep his composure.
I told you to go find a girl, but damn, your audacity is off the charts! You actually set your sights on the little princess of the Jialan Clan?
To be fair, Jiang Hong could confidently say that with his terrifying cultivation at the Second-Life Emperor Realm, Jiang Che could provoke 99.9999% of the factions across the Nine Heavens without consequence. Even if he fancied a holy maiden from some grand sect, he could just carry her home without issue.
But Jiang Che had to go and mess with that 0.0001%.
This kid really knows how to pick trouble.
"Jiang Che... I—I never told you to provoke the Jialan Clan’s princess! Do you even know who her mother is? I have to show her respect!"
Jiang Che casually picked his ear in response.
"Elder Ancestor, didn’t you say you were invincible? That you were my unshakable backer? Seems like this ‘backer’ of mine collapses at the first sign of trouble."
Jiang Hong: "......"
[Ding! Host has scammed Great Emperor-level ancestor Jiang Hong, earning 50 million Scam Points.]
Tsk tsk tsk, finally caught the old man—time to milk him dry!
Points from Great Emperor-level powerhouses came in the tens of millions, sometimes even hundreds of millions!
The stronger the target, the higher their fate, the more points they dropped.
Take the Sons of Destiny, for example. Chu Yuan, as the main Son of Destiny, dropped points in the millions, while the others only gave a few hundred thousand.
And they were still weak now! Once they reached Martial God Stage, or even Nirvana and Creation Realms, their point yield would skyrocket to tens of millions. Now that’s some sustainable farming!
...
Jiang Hong: "......"
This little brat has no manners! Does Jiang Hong not deserve face?
He was still a Great Emperor, damn it!
Jiang Hong cursed inwardly—Jiang Che, you’ve got no tact! This old man poured his life’s treasures into you, even gave you the Canglong Ring, and you can’t even spare me some dignity?
But Jiang Che still carried the Jiang Family’s bloodline, even if he was from a branch family and bore the surname Jiang instead of Jiang. Sure, he was cunning and shameless, but he was a Jiang Family Celestial Body. The Jiangs had to protect him, even if it meant sparking an Emperor War!
"Jiang Che, listen to your ancestor... let the Jialan princess go. You like beauties, right? I’ll handpick a few from the Nine Heavens’ Beauty Rankings and send them down to you..."
Jiang Hong was shamelessly throwing his dignity away—what kind of ancestor openly picks a harem for his descendant?
"Elder Ancestor... I’ve fallen for Princess Jia Ling'er at first sight. I beg for your blessing! And for the Jialan Clan’s esteemed ancestors’ approval!"
Jiang Che wore a face of pure sincerity, like a warrior charging for love—though what kind of love? Definitely not the pure kind!
[Ding! Host has scammed multiple Jiang Family ancestors, earning 200 million points.]
[Ding! Host has scammed multiple Jialan Clan ancestors, earning 100 million points.]
Now this is a jackpot.
"You bastard! What ‘love at first sight’? This is lust at first sight! You’ve got wicked intentions toward our princess!" A Jialan Clan Great Emperor’s lips twisted in fury.
Jiang Che’s reputation as a lecher had already spread across the Nine Heavens. Many clans had heard rumors of the Jiang Family’s Celestial Body descendant in the mortal realm—a notorious skirt-chaser. Several noble clans’ holy maidens and divine daughters had planned to descend, but upon hearing Jiang Che’s infamy, they canceled their trips immediately.
Jiang Che straightened his back and gave the Jialan old fossil a lazy glance. "So what if it’s lust? Is my Celestial Body status not worthy of your Jialan princess?"
With that, he decided to show off.
He fully awakened his Chaos Azure Lotus Celestial Body. A lotus of chaos materialized in the air, its roots anchored in the void, exuding an ancient aura that seemed to transcend epochs.
But that wasn’t all.
A True Immortal Martial Mark emerged—a domineering martial will, radiating an indomitable, invincible aura.
And then... the Void Celestial Body!
For the first time, he revealed it before the eyes of multiple Great Emperors. His entire being seemed to dissolve into nothingness.
(Of course, the Void Celestial Body was just special effects—it cost hundreds of millions to actually unlock.)
"Wha—?! The Void Celestial Body?! Since when did you awaken that?!" Jiang Hong’s eyes nearly bulged out of his skull. He completely lost his composure.
The other Jiang Family ancestors wore similar expressions. As Great Emperors, they’d seen everything—but Jiang Che’s case? This was a first.
Twin Celestial Bodies—Chaos and Void!
Once matured, he’d inevitably comprehend the Chaos and Void Daos, two of the top ten Great Daos in existence.
Jiang Che’s talent was already peerless, but now with twin Celestial Bodies and an Immortal Mark? He’s undeniably the number one prodigy in the talent rankings!
The Jialan Clan’s Great Emperors’ expressions shifted from shock to utter bewilderment.
This Jiang Family disciple hid his cards well... Twin Celestial Bodies? Even the ancient records of the Nine Heavens scarcely mention such a thing!
"Well? Is my talent... unworthy of this little mermaid?"
Without waiting for an answer, Jiang Che yanked Jia Ling'er into his arms and casually retracted the Immortal-Binding Rope coiled around her.
Jia Ling'er gasped in relief, but the rope had left deep red marks on her snow-white skin—some areas even swollen from the tight bindings.
"You vile bastard! Don’t think your talent gives you the right to act recklessly! My mother will make you pay... Waaah!"
"Ancestors, please punish this beast! He’s too arrogant!"
Tears streamed down Jia Ling'er’s face. She’d never suffered such humiliation—being manhandled by a lowly human male.
In response, Jiang Che delivered a firm smack to her backside.
"YOU—! I’LL KILL YOU!!" Jia Ling'er thrashed her fishtail furiously, but it was useless against Jiang Che.
...
"The Immortal-Binding Rope?! That’s the real thing?!"
One of the Jiang Family elders narrowed his eyes but kept silent, communicating via divine sense with the others.
The Immortal-Binding Rope—a divine artifact from the ancient Heavenly Court! A treasure capable of restraining immortals themselves!
How did it end up in Jiang Che’s hands?
Only one explanation: he’d likely stumbled upon the lost legacy of the Heavenly Court.
After the fall of the ancient Heavenly Court, its ruins vanished into the river of time. Countless experts across the Nine Heavens had searched for traces of it, but none succeeded.
Some sages theorized that the ruins were hidden in the mortal realm.
And now... it seemed Jiang Che had found them.
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)
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?!
for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"
