"Ancestors, forgive my inability to help. I also have a system, called the Pitfall System. As long as I set people up, I can become stronger."
Jiang Che threw his hands up and confessed directly.
"The reason why the pills I gave you before tasted so awful was actually just to set you up and earn points. I have my own bitter difficulties too!"
Sincerity is the ultimate weapon!
Jiang Che's words made the ancestors' scalps tingle.
No wonder! No wonder some of the things Jiang Che did sometimes made them feel like they were being stabbed in the back. So this kid's system was some sort of Pitfall System.
However... given Jiang Che's status, with a supreme Immortal Emperor backing him, a system shouldn't be of much use to him, right? Even a Heavenly Dao-level system... couldn't possibly compare to a supreme Immortal Emperor.
But they didn't ask.
"Oh, so that's how it is. That's fine then... set us up however you like, just don't kill us in the process!" The Third Ancestor chuckled, trying to use laughter to cover up his awkwardness.
"Right, right, right. Even though us old folks are getting up there in years, our bones are still pretty tough. You can mess with us however you want," the Seventh Ancestor grinned, his smile stretching almost to the back of his ears.
"Really?" Jiang Che chuckled lightly, a hint of slyness in his smile.
"Uh..."
Seeing Jiang Che's smile, a slight chill seeped down the spines of these old men.
"Hehe..." Jiang Che laughed out loud. "By blood, you guys are my actual ancestors. How could I really set you up without a bottom line?"
So you'll set us up WITH a bottom line, right?
...
After Jiang Che left, the gazes of the Third Ancestor, Fourth Ancestor, and the other immortals all turned toward the Seventh Ancestor!
The old man's eyes tightened. He directly stuffed the immortal pill into his robes and looked at the rest of them warily. "I'm warning you, this Life Extension Pill was a gift from my worthy son-in-law. I know your cultivation is higher than mine..."
"Oh, brother, I didn't say I was going to do anything, did I?" The Sixth Ancestor chuckled. "I'm just a country bumpkin who has never seen this kind of immortal pill before. I didn't get a clear look when Jiang Che was here earlier. Could you let me observe it up close?"
The Fourth Ancestor also nodded repeatedly. "Yes, I just want to get close and take a whiff of the pill's fragrance. It contains an entire epoch of lifespan. Even a single sniff could probably prolong one's life!"
"Get lost, all of you!" The Seventh Ancestor's scalp tingled. These old men were getting desperate. Take a whiff, my ass! What if a whiff turned into a massive inhale... who would he complain to then?
Since they were all family, Jiang Che wouldn't be able to say much either.
Therefore, the Seventh Ancestor directly swallowed the pill in his hand!
"You—"
Seeing this, the several immortals all showed looks of regret, but their eyes remained fixed on the Seventh Ancestor.
In the next moment, a sudden change occurred within the Seventh Ancestor's body!
The Seventh Ancestor's cultivation wasn't high; he was merely a First Tribulation Immortal. A First Tribulation Immortal cultivated a single true fate, with a maximum lifespan of eighty thousand years. His original lifespan was about to dry up, and he was on the verge of kicking the bucket... If Jiang Che hadn't given him an Everlasting Immortal Peach, he probably would have been dead by now.
But how could the ten thousand years of lifespan granted by the Everlasting Immortal Peach compare to a supreme Saint-tier Life Extension Pill?
In an instant, the Seventh Ancestor's body was filled with majestic vitality. Within that single pill... was concentrated one hundred and twenty-nine thousand six hundred years of lifespan. Now fully released, it instantly nourished the Seventh Ancestor's nearly depleted immortal foundation.
"Old Seven, focus on absorbing it. We will protect you. Don't let the vitality leak out..."
But the Seventh Ancestor shook his head. "There's no need. I... I've already absorbed it all. This pill... its medicinal properties are extremely gentle."
Originally, the Seventh Ancestor looked like a middle-aged man in his fifties. But now... his hair instantly turned pitch black, and his appearance transformed from middle-aged into that of a young man. The vitality within his body was as vigorous as a blazing sun, reaching the peak of the First Tribulation Immortal realm!
"Hiss... This feeling? This feeling of returning vitality... is too intoxicating!"
The Seventh Ancestor's lips trembled with excitement.
Of course... the spectating immortal ancestors were even more excited. The Eighth Ancestor, in particular, grabbed a large handful of the inferior supreme Life Extension Pills and threw them into his mouth. Although these were also Life Extension Pills, each one could only increase lifespan by a month, and they tasted like dog shit.
Even so, the Eighth Ancestor ate them with great relish.
If he couldn't have the high-end stuff, he'd make do with the trash for now.
Rumble—
Suddenly!
Above the Jiang family estate, countless pitch-black thunderclouds gathered oppressively.
A terrifying pressure spread out.
"An Immortal Tribulation? Old Seven... how did you attract an Immortal Tribulation? Are you going to undergo your tribulation right now? Why the hell aren't you going to the Savage Domain to do it? You're doing it here in the Jiang family? What are you trying to do!!!"
The immortals' scalps tingled!
The Nine Heavens had a rule: once a cultivator reached the Great Emperor level, they couldn't just casually undergo a tribulation... They had to go to specific uninhabited lands.
After all, a single bolt of immortal lightning from an Immortal Tribulation could obliterate an entire state.
"I... I don't know! I was already at the peak of the First Tribulation. Now that my immortal foundation has returned to its peak... it must have automatically attracted the Immortal Tribulation, right?" the Seventh Ancestor said with a trembling voice.
"Then why the hell are you still staying in our Jiang family!!! Hurry up and get lost!!!"
"If you bring the Immortal Tribulation down on the Jiang family, I'll fucking be the first to beat you to death!"
The Seventh Ancestor's mouth twitched, and he quickly took the teleportation array to leave the Jiang family's territory, taking the Immortal Tribulation with him.
...
In the Immortal Herb Garden.
On the Everlasting Immortal Peach tree, Yao Yao sat barefoot on a branch, resting her chin in her hands and gently biting her lip. "Master, Master... why hasn't Master come to see me yet?"
Although this little peach demon acted all innocent and coy, she was now deeply in love with Jiang Che, longing for his arrival every day.
Right at that moment, a figure appeared in the Immortal Herb Garden.
"Master!!!"
In the next second, Yao Yao vanished from the branch and threw herself into Jiang Che's arms.
"What's wrong? It's only been a few days since we last met, hasn't it?" Jiang Che supported the little loli in his arms with one hand. His eyes were filled with doting affection and a hint of a headache; the little peach demon was too clingy.
"Master, you've finally come to see me. This time I counted and counted, counting so many one hundreds before you came~" Yao Yao pouted her little mouth, looking a bit unhappy.
She could only count up to 100 at most, so whenever she couldn't see Jiang Che, she would pass the time by counting.
"It's fine. From now on, you don't need to bear fruit anymore." Jiang Che reached out and rubbed Yao Yao's head.
"Huh?" Yao Yao blinked her big eyes twice, but then she became a little panicked. "Ma... Master, I can bear fruit. I can bear lots and lots of fruit."
Yao Yao's dependence on Jiang Che was simply too strong; this sense of dependence had completely surpassed the level of mere romantic love!
"It's fine. I don't need you to work so hard to bear fruit anymore. I can just refine Life Extension Pills directly. From now on, you don't need to stay in the Immortal Herb Garden every day either."
Originally, Yao Yao's usefulness wasn't that great. To put it bluntly... it was just Jiang Che being lustful, kidnapping a shapeshifted little peach demon to be his wife.
"Alright! Let me see if our little honey peach has become even more juicy and tender?"

. 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!"
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?!
