Qian Yu was overwhelmed!
The young master of the prestigious Qian Family, he was... he was... no!! No!!
He screamed, roared, and wailed in a tempest of tears.
But then, suddenly!
He thought of something and looked at the doctor with hopeful eyes: "Doctor, I must be salvageable, right?"
"Even if my parts are missing! But we can transplant, can't we?"
That's right!
The Qian Family may not have much else, but they certainly had money!
He didn't believe that if he threw enough money around, he wouldn't find someone willing to donate their... stuff.
The doctor and nurse glanced at each other upon hearing this.
The doctor cleared his throat, stepped closer to Qian Yu, and patted his shoulder.
Just as Qian Yu thought there was still hope.
The doctor said: "Young Master, we considered that option, but unfortunately, the assassin's technique was masterful. They severed all your nerve tissue."
"When you were brought in, the nerves were already dead."
Qian Yu's vision went black at this.
But the next second.
The doctor comforted him: "However, there might be another way."
"?! What is it?"
Qian Yu rose a sliver of hope.
"If there's anyone in this world who can help you, it would be... the Divine Doctor!"
"But the old Divine Doctor has retired, and now only the new one remains."
The nurse perked up at this, her eyes shining brightly as she clasped her hands together excitedly: "Doctor, are you talking about Dr. Qin?"
"Yes, yes, the one by Su Muwan's side."
"His medical skills are beyond comprehension, with the ability to revive the dead!"
"Revive the dead? Really?"
"Who knows, that's what they say outside."
"Young Master, what do you think?"
Me? What do I think?
Qian Yu's face twitched, unable to speak.
It's over.
Everything is over.
Do I really have to beg that guy who slapped me?
And the most infuriating part is!!
Why do the doctors and nurses under my own Qian Family admire my mortal enemy?!
"Get out!! Get out of here, all of you!!"
Qian Yu, overwhelmed, roared at the doctor and nurse.
"As you wish, Young Master."
The two left.
As they walked, the nurse said: "Did you see? Tonight, things are pretty lively in Jiang City..."
"Yes, apparently someone used the Sky Dream Tree to propose."
"Wow!! So romantic!"
Damn it! Damn it!
Qian Yu's ears rang with their jovial chatter.
He clenched his teeth, his gaze twisted.
I'm in this state, and they're just happy as ever?
You're all looking down on me!!
At that moment.
Click!
The door opened.
A figure walked in.
Qian Yu bore some resemblance to the man, who was none other than Qian Hao, the head of the Qian Family.
"Qian Yu."
Qian Hao glanced at Qian Yu, who was lying twisted on the bed, and said coolly: "I've identified the person who tried to assassinate you."
"Dad?!"
Qian Yu, seeing the man, first showed a hint of joy, then hurriedly said: "Dad, forget about the assassin for now, I! I can't be cured!"
"Quick, use your connections to think of something!"
As soon as he finished speaking.
Qian Hao snorted coldly, glaring at Qian Yu with contempt: "Shut up!!"
"Dad?"
Qian Yu was confused. Why was his father yelling at him?
"Do you know who tried to assassinate you?"
"Someone from the dark web?"
"Yes! But do you know why they came after you?!"
"B-because I'm the young master of the Qian Family?"
"Rubbish!!!"
"Before you were targeted! All assassination orders on Su Muwan were canceled!!"
"You fool! Who gave you the idea to assassinate Su Muwan?!! Don't others know, but don't we know how strong Su Muwan is?!"
"Four Peak Realm late-stages! Four! She killed them all!!"
"Are you brainless?! Others didn't come after you, and yet you had to provoke her?!"
"Just because Qin Luo slapped you 25 times? Do you know how many people outside would like to be slapped by Qin Luo and can't even get the chance?!"
Qian Hao felt both angry and helpless about his useless son.
He had thought about sending him out to experience poverty to understand the value of money, but instead of changing, the boy became even more immersed in debauchery after returning.
This time, it was also because of a woman that he was ambushed and assassinated.
Qian Yu was stunned. He instinctively looked at Qian Hao, angrily: "Dad! It must be that witch Su Muwan who had me assassinated!"
"I! I must kill her! I absolutely must..."
Slap!!??
"Ugh—!"
Before he could finish.
A figure instantly appeared and slapped Qian Yu hard across the face.
Qian Yu was dazed, staring at the old man beside him: "Grandpa Jin?"
The old man stepped back after slapping him, standing calmly: "Sorry, Young Master, but this was the elder's order."
"Dad..."
Qian Yu clutched his cheek, staring at Qian Hao in disbelief.
The latter only snorted coldly: "If you want to cure yourself, then go to Jiang City, kneel before Su Muwan, and apologize. Most importantly, you must kneel and thank Qin Luo for slapping you! Only then... might Qin Luo consider treating you!"
"Otherwise!"
"Prepare to be a eunuch for the rest of your life!"
"I won't help you with this!!"
As Qian Hao turned to leave, he glanced back at the dazed Qian Yu and said: "Also, you don't have to worry about the competition anymore."
"Not me...? Then who?"
"Qian Duoduo, your younger brother."
Qian... Qian Duoduo?
My younger brother?
When Qian Yu heard this name, images of his simple-minded younger brother instantly flashed in his mind.
My father actually wants that simpleton to take over?!
Click!
The door closed.
Grandpa Jin followed behind Qian Hao, glancing back at the closed door and letting out a sigh.
Since being slapped by Qin Luo at the Shangguan Xiao Banquet, the master had idolized Qin Luo like a madman.
Young Master, you... this hurdle seems insurmountable.
Inside the ward.
One second, two seconds, three seconds.
Time slowly ticked by.
Qian Yu, holding his face, gradually twisted his expression. His eyes turned venomously hateful.
Qian Hao!! You look down on me! You want to leave the family fortune to that simpleton brother of mine!
And apologize to that witch Su Muwan?! And thank Qin Luo that tyrant?!
What kind of joke is this!! You're all crazy!!
Since none of you are helping me! Fine!
Then I'll help myself!!
Once I succeed!
You'll all regret it!
Meanwhile.
In a mysterious space.
A dozen figures watched the scene projected before them with varying expressions.
The scene showed the Sky Dream Tree of Jiang City, as well as Su Muwan's battle.
"Su Muwan..."
"Heh, interesting."
"After the competition, send a representative from the Jiang City Alliance Branch to meet her."
"Oh, are we trying to recruit her?"
"Of course."
"The age of dwindling spiritual energy is about to end, and then... the other side of the world will reveal itself. We need Transcenders like Su Muwan."
"Oh? Su Muwan is that strong?"
"Yes... Old Heavenly Master was right about one thing."
One of them stared at the image of Su Muwan.
Speaking gravely: "If left unchecked, she will eventually destroy the world."
"Haha, the world is really unlucky. That's what you told us when you recruited us."
"By the way, what about that sidekick of Su Muwan's? The one named Qin Luo. He looks quite handsome; I like that type."
"He's skilled, but his abilities aren't up to our standards."
"Oh, too bad~"
Qin Luo was quickly dismissed.
After all, how could a mere sidekick be worth their attention?
Then, the speaker looked around at the dozen people present and said gravely: "Having decided, let's vote. Raise your hands if you agree to recruit Su Muwan after observing the martial arts competition."
"Agreed."
"Consent."
A twin-tailed pink-haired loli yawned and raised her hand lazily, asking: "What if she doesn't join us?"
Upon hearing this.
Everyone present had a knowing smile.
They all turned to look at the man seated at the head of the room.
The man had been keeping his eyes closed the whole time. After the room fell completely silent, he slowly spoke...
"An aberration that threatens to destroy the world."
"It can only be eliminated."
young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
g Yu was preparing for retirement when her organization decided to eliminate her. She transmigrated to a zombie apocalypse world. However, a tiny unexpected situation occurred: She somehow transformed into an adorable little girl?!
ap a wealthy young lady? Or else I'll be eliminated by the system? Ye Feng, who awakened the Kidnapper System, originally wanted to live a peaceful life but never imagined he would become a kidnapper of young women. However, after some time, he discovered that all the girls the system ordered him to kidnap were far from ordinary. "Big brother Ye Feng~ You've kidnapped my heart, and now you're not allowed to leave me ever again~" "Ye Feng~ You kidnapped me back then, now it's my turn to capture you♡" "Little Feng, you're mine! You can only be mine!" "Ye Feng, none of them deserve you. Only I love you the most♡" ... This is madness, they've all gone mad! Wait, what? Why are all the girls I kidnapped yanderes?!
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
