The scene shifted abruptly.
The noise of commotion filled the air.
Su Muwan, who had only been thinking about hurrying back to enjoy her book in peace, stood up in shock.
She looked around at the members of various factions glaring at her.
For the first time, she experienced what it felt like to be so utterly speechless that it turned into bitter laughter.
The more she thought about it, the more absurd it seemed.
Su Muwan couldn't hold back anymore and shouted, "What the hell is wrong with you all?!"
"What evil spirits?! Aren't we supposed to be at a wedding right now?!"
As she spoke, she turned to Shangguan Xiao, the wedding officiant, and pointed at the group of people who had suddenly stood up, declaring they needed to eliminate evil spirits. "Shangguan Xiao, are you out of your mind?!"
"On your big day, you set up a trap to harm me?"
Shangguan Xiao sneered in response, "A petty evil spirit like you still dares to argue."
"Whether you're an evil spirit or not, the fellow Daoists from Dragon Tiger Mountain will confirm it!"
In the shadows, Shangguan Chuxue's brow furrowed slightly but quickly smoothed out.
To be honest, this wasn't how she had envisioned things would unfold.
Many steps had gone wrong.
Moreover, Shangguan Xiao's demeanor, as if he knew everything, left her even more puzzled.
But it didn't matter.
At least the current situation was targeting Su Muwan.
Dragon Tiger Mountain Daoists?
Su Muwan's expression froze.
Weren't they the ones who had previously claimed she was a great evil spirit?
How was she supposed to argue with that?
Sure enough, in the next moment, Zhang Tianquan stepped forward.
As the former Celestial Master, Zhang Tianquan commanded great respect in the eyes of everyone present.
Instantly, all eyes turned to him.
With a stern gaze fixed on Su Muwan, Zhang Tianquan declared in a deep voice, "Su Muwan, your body is shrouded in evil energy, and your demonic aura is overwhelming."
"Today, we will eradicate this evil and protect the righteous path!"
With that,
*Whoosh!*
He drew a peachwood sword and pointed it directly at Su Muwan, shouting, "Disciples of Dragon Tiger Mountain, heed my command!"
"Follow me! Eradicate this evil spirit!"
"Yes!"
As Zhang Tianquan's voice echoed, the disciples responded in unison.
They quickly grabbed their peachwood swords and talismans, all eyes locked on Su Muwan in vigilance.
Suan Tianxing, though feeling the situation was somewhat abrupt, didn't dwell on it.
He stood beside Zhang Tianquan, his expression grave as he stared at Su Muwan.
Her stiff expression suggested she knew her end was near!
Thus, he coldly rebuked, "Su Muwan!"
"There's no escape from this siege!"
"Show your true form, evil spirit!"
Su Muwan's eye twitched in frustration.
Can anyone relate?
I knew something would go wrong when I came to Wang City,
but I never expected...
you all would gang up on me like this!
What's worse!
Su Muwan took a deep breath, her gaze hardening. She clenched her fists and sneered, "You bunch of useless fools, how do you think you can possibly defeat me?"
The arrogance in her tone caused everyone's expressions to change.
The evil spirit was angry!
Even Zhang Tianquan, possessed by Xiong Ha, gulped nervously.
But!
Zhang Tianquan declared loudly, "How laughable! To defend the mortal world, even if we perish, so be it!"
"As long as we can destroy you, we have no regrets!"
Some of the more rational members of Wang City's elite glanced at Zhang Tianquan.
Perishing wasn't really necessary.
Ning Qingxuan and others were also utterly confused.
What the hell?
Since when did Su Muwan become an evil spirit??
Ning Qingxuan frowned and shouted at the crowd surrounding them, "What are you all doing? Do you think the Su and Ning families are easy targets?!"
"You want to destroy our families?!"
"Fine! Come at me, let's see who's tougher!"
Ning Qingxuan had been known as the little demon of Wang City in her youth.
Her words immediately caused a stir.
Some of the family members who hadn't been possessed by spirits tried to explain.
"Ning Qingxuan, you've misunderstood."
"We're only targeting Su Muwan. She's been possessed by an evil spirit."
"Eliminating her is for your own good."
As soon as these words were spoken, more people jumped in, hurling accusations.
"That's right!"
"Su Muwan is arrogant and domineering! She's committed countless evils and even seized my business! Isn't that proof enough that she's an evil spirit?!"
"Eradicate the evil spirit!"
"Eradicate the evil spirit!"
"Eradicate the evil spirit!"
The voices in the crowd grew louder, forming an unstoppable tide.
Su Muwan stopped her mother and others from speaking further.
She then looked at the people accusing her, feeling utterly helpless.
She had always known that trouble followed her wherever she went,
but...
She took a deep breath.
Her eyes narrowed.
Gnashing her teeth, she spat, "You all get to decide everything, huh?!"
"Then what's the point of me saying anything?!"
"Qin Luo!"
She turned to Qin Luo and said, "Let's go!!"
"I'll handle the former Celestial Master and the others! You deal with Suan Tianxing!"
Qin Luo, who was above T0 level, would handle the stronger opponents.
Su Muwan would take care of the rest.
The division of labor was clear.
Qin Luo smiled faintly and nodded, "Understood, Miss Su."
Although the main antagonist hadn't arrived yet,
it wouldn't hurt to have a little fun in the meantime.
Zhang Hu and the others knew that Suan Tianxing was the real evil spirit, but since Qin Luo hadn't given the signal to act, they couldn't make a move.
They exchanged glances.
Was Mr. Qin waiting to corner Suan Tianxing and force him to reveal his true form?
That must be it...
Mr. Qin must be trying to spare us the trouble. Once the evil spirit shows itself, we can act without anyone questioning us.
Realizing this, Zhang Hu and the others felt even more admiration for Qin Luo.
Xiong Ha glanced at Su Muwan and Qin Luo.
He sneered inwardly.
Outwardly, he controlled Zhang Tianquan and shouted, "Stubborn fool!"
"Since you, Su Muwan, insist on harming others and yourself, then!"
"Everyone! Including that lackey Qin Luo, we'll..."
Before he could finish, some of the family heads who hadn't been possessed intervened.
"Wait, Mr. Qin is just being misled by the evil spirit. We don't mean him any harm."
"Exactly, Mr. Qin is still invited to be a guest of honor in our family."
"Wait, why your family? Isn't he supposed to come to ours?"
"What?"
"We need to settle this. I can't just let that slide."
What the hell?
What are you all talking about at a time like this?
Help me kill Su Muwan already!
Zhang Tianquan frowned slightly and opened his mouth to speak, "You all..."
*Boom!!*
Before he could finish, a powerful aura swept through the banquet hall.
In an instant,
Su Muwan's figure flashed past Zhang Tianquan.
With a furious expression, she appeared in front of those who had been clamoring to make Qin Luo their captive.
"You're asking for death!!"
She roared, and with a wave of her hand, an invisible wave of icy energy surged forward.
Everyone's eyes widened in panic. "No!!"
"No, my ass!"
*Crash!!*
As the icy energy spread, the banquet hall froze over in an instant.
"Ugh—!"
The noisy crowd was sent flying, crashing to the ground and spitting blood. Their eyes were wide with shock.
Their dantians were destroyed, and their meridians torn.
We... got crippled again?
*Thud—!*
Their heads slumped, and they passed out.
The banquet hall fell into deathly silence.
Shangguan Chuxue was momentarily stunned.
Then, the corner of her mouth curled up.
A glint of intrigue appeared in her eyes.
Interesting.
But the fellow Daoists from Dragon Tiger Mountain weren't as easy to deal with as these Wang City families.
Especially Zhang Tianquan, the Celestial Master...
Wait, where did he go?
Zhang Tianquan snapped back to reality and turned to look for Su Muwan, but it was too late.
All he saw was—
"Ugh—!"
Su Muwan's figure flashed again, appearing right in front of Zhang Tianquan. She swiftly grabbed him by the throat and lifted him off the ground.
She glared at the purple-faced Zhang Tianquan and said coldly, "Old fool, you're asking for death."
Shangguan Chuxue: ?
transmigrates into the world as the sect master of the Heavenly Yan Sect, which is on the verge of being wiped out. He binds a system that grants him cultivation power based on the number of disciples he has: for each disciple, he automatically gains a year's worth of cultivation every single day! Take one disciple: every day he gains 1 year of cultivation power. While others struggle through a year of bitter training, he gets the same just by sleeping through a single night. Take ten disciples: every day he gains 10 years of cultivation power. Foundation Establishment, Core Formation, Nascent Soul—he breezes through all bottlenecks without lifting a finger. Take one hundred disciples: every day he gains 100 years of cultivation power. Even a Soul Transformation Venerable before him can’t survive a single blow. Take ten thousand disciples: every day he gains 10,000 years of cultivation power! With a wave of his hand, he topples empires. With a single step, he crushes the sacred grounds of the universe. ... While others fight tooth and nail for secret techniques, Lin Yan casually hands out Nascent Soul-level cultivation manuals as beginner textbooks. While others strain to find talented recruits, Lin Yan opens his doors to anyone—so long as they’re human. In just three short years, the Heavenly Yan Sect went from a backwater sect made up of three crumbling huts to a sacred land that every cultivator under heaven would kill to enter. ... One day, otherworldly demon gods invade, with a million demon soldiers pressing down upon the realm. Lin Yan, yawning, rises from his lounge chair and glances at the system panel: [Current Disciples: 1.28 million] [Daily Cultivation Increase: 1.28 million years] He waves his hand casually, and the countless demon soldiers are reduced to ashes in an instant. “So noisy… interrupting my fishing.”

e, Immortal Body, Transmigration, System, Progression Fantasy, Academy Setting, Third-Person Perspective. Alternate Title: Transmigrating into a High Martial World and Reading Live Comments. Bad news: I transmigrated. This is a terrifying high-martial world, and my original, pathetically weak body fell into a coma and never woke up. Good news: I got a Popularity Points system upon arrival. I can see live comments and even create an unkillable alternate identity. Starting out, the alternate identity has all stats at 1. The system tells me that to grow stronger, I must participate in the plot, gain popularity points to allocate stats and grow stronger, and ultimately awaken my original body. And so, carrying my original body on my back, I officially entered Huaqing Academy, where the story's protagonist resides. From that moment on, Chen Guan kicked the original plot to pieces. Live Comments: [Doesn't anyone find this mysterious coffin guy creepy? He can summon indescribable grey misty hands.] [Is this guy a hero or a villain? What kind of onion became a spirit?] [By the way, does anyone know who's in the coffin? Shouldn't the debt for saving his life be repaid by now?] [According to unofficial histories, the person in the coffin was Chen Guan's first love. Their love was once passionate and earth-shattering, but they were separated by life and death due to worldly circumstances. What a star-crossed pair.] ... Years later, the world knew of a demon god born from a coffin, shrouded in grey mist, impossible to gaze upon directly. His foremost divine emissary often wielded a scythe, reaping lives like the god of death. As war approached, facing former friends and a boundless sea of enemies, Chen Guan merely raised his scythe.
