【Thirty Years of Internal Energy】
Jiang Che looked at the 30 years of internal energy stored in his system and let out a few light breaths.
Previously, when he "devoured" Yu Wan'er, he had naturally triggered the villainous choices, but back then, he was too impatient to even look at the options.
Later, he gained 30 years of internal energy and had completely forgotten about it until now.
"System, use the internal energy!"
Soon, a pure and powerful force surged into his body.
Vaguely, it felt as though a layer of meridians had been forcefully pierced and shattered.
Transform Force!
With the infusion of 30 years of internal energy, Jiang Che directly advanced from the peak of Dark Force to the mid-stage of Transform Force.
For ancient martial artists, Dark Force and Transform Force were fundamentally different. Dark Force could only circulate internal energy within the body, using fists and feet to inflict damage on enemies.
Transform Force, on the other hand, allowed the external release of internal energy, enabling even flowers and leaves to be used as hidden weapons.
Now, Jiang Che... had officially stepped into the ranks of martial arts masters. If he encountered trash like Lin Yu or Chen Hao again, he could easily dominate them.
Though, to be fair, Lin Yu and the others had always been at his mercy.
【Jiang Che, you perverted freak! Why are you smiling so happily? You disgusting creep!】
Now, every time Yu Wan'er saw Jiang Che, she would get angry for no particular reason. She just felt furious.
Even Ye Mengyao didn't dote on her as much as before. In the past, Sister Mengyao had pampered her exclusively, but now, Jiang Che had entered the picture.
The relationship between the three of them had become quite awkward. Ye Mengyao might not feel awkward, but how could Yu Wan'er not?
Yu Wan'er was really thin-skinned, and she couldn't compare to the now-darkened Ye Mengyao.
"You—"
But thankfully, she had already gotten used to it.
She secretly glanced at Ye Mengyao sitting in the back seat. The young lady was staring out the window, seemingly indifferent to everything happening inside the car.
【Ugh... this is so annoying! I can get jealous too, you know!】
【How could that be? I wouldn't be jealous of Wan'er. I'm jealous of Jiang Che...】
【Wuwuwu, my dear Wan'er... remember your Sister Mengyao when you rise to greatness.】
Ye Mengyao's inner monologue was quite dramatic.
Jiang Che couldn't help but feel a little amused.
"Jiang Che, I'll get off here... I heard Sister Gu has returned recently, right? I won't be staying at your place."
Ye Mengyao was clearly familiar with Gu Lingfei and knew her well.
Since Jiang Che had already brought Yu Wan'er home, it was only natural that she wouldn't follow them back.
......
Jiang Che glanced indifferently at Ye Mengyao as she left.
This young lady had truly embraced her dark side to the fullest.
"Jiang Che, you perverted freak!"
Yu Wan'er pushed Jiang Che away forcefully. As soon as Ye Mengyao left, her true nature immediately revealed itself.
In front of Ye Mengyao, she was the soft and adorable Wan'er, but in front of Jiang Che... she didn't bother pretending anymore.
Jiang Che chuckled and pinched her cheek.
"Stop pinching my face! (≧口≦)o"
Jiang Che simply pursed his lips. Being a villain... was just so damn satisfying.
This freshly minted "Chosen Heroine" was absolutely delectable—something he couldn't resist tasting. Better hurry and deliver her to Young Master Jiang!
Just then, Gu Lingfei sent him a message.
【A'Che, come pick me up from the company and take me home.】
Jiang Che was speechless. Did this woman not have legs?
What were those nearly one-meter-long legs for? She could even pedal a bicycle back!
But complaints aside, Jiang Che decided to go check on her.
......
"Su Han, I don't need you to take me! Get lost!"
Gu Lingfei shot Su Han a look of disgust. Why was this guy so persistent?
Chasing her all the way from America to Dragon Country?
If she remembered correctly, Su Han was the leader of a mercenary group, right?
What?
Did he abandon his mercenary group just to chase after her?
What an idiot!
Su Han, however, put on a shameless smile. "Fei Fei, you really missed out today. I single-handedly defeated hundreds of people applying for security positions. It was quite the spectacle!"
Gu Lingfei was speechless. She glanced at the few elderly men sitting at the security booth, casually cracking melon seeds.
"Really? You beat a hundred grandpas... and you're proud of that?"
Su Han quickly denied it. "No way! They were all martial arts masters! Every one of them was a Dark Force expert..."
But Gu Lingfei had no interest in engaging with him further.
"Fei Fei, you're the CEO of a major company. How come you don't even have a driver? How about I become your driver?"
Gu Lingfei remained silent. She did have her own driver, but for some reason... today the driver seemed to have run into trouble and couldn't make it.
That's why she had asked Jiang Che to pick her up.
Su Han, faced with Gu Lingfei's cold demeanor, didn't get angry. After all, he had been her loyal lapdog for years.
Just then, a pure black Maybach pulled into the company's entrance.
Su Han frowned. Who was this? Interrupting his attempt to flirt!
But he remembered his duty as a security guard and had to let the car through.
"Fei Fei, wait here. I'll go let the car in first."
Su Han's submissive demeanor was the epitome of a lapdog.
Gu Lingfei's icy expression was filled with disdain.
...
The Maybach stopped near Gu Lingfei and the others.
Jiang Che stepped out of the car with Yu Wan'er.
"A'Che, you're here!"
Upon seeing Jiang Che, Gu Lingfei's frosty face softened into a gentle smile.
Her smile was so radiant that even Su Han was momentarily stunned.
He had been Gu Lingfei's lapdog for years, and she had always maintained an icy demeanor. He had never seen her smile before.
He never imagined it could be so captivating.
But Su Han quickly snapped out of it.
Narrowing his eyes, he glared at Jiang Che.
A man???
A flash of murderous intent crossed his eyes. How dare this guy try to steal his woman?
You've already signed your death warrant!

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.
