Boom! Boom! Boom!!
The night streets of Cherry Blossom City were filled with the continuous roar of thunder as shadowy creatures, like ghosts, silently chased the remnants of the city's underworld members.
"What the hell is going on?!"
"What the hell are these things?!"
The gang members, their faces pale, frantically fled for their lives. From the corners of their eyes, they could see the shadowy creatures closing in on them. Their hearts were filled with dread.
First, their bosses had died in the Alliance Building.
And now, these shadowy creatures were hunting them at night?
What the hell was happening to the world?!
"Quick! I'll go left!"
"Alright, we'll head right!"
The gang members split up, trying to avoid being surrounded by the shadowy creatures.
However.
"Roar!"
As soon as they turned the corner, a black figure suddenly leaped out from an alley, as if it had predicted their escape route.
Splat!
The black figure, like a sharp blade, tore through the tranquility of the night with terrifying speed, pouncing on one of the gang members.
The man let out a desperate scream, his voice cutting through the night air like a mournful wail. In an instant, the black figure grabbed him, turning him into a mist of blood that dissipated into the air.
And then, almost immediately.
Gurgle—!
As the black mist swirled, the gang member who had turned into blood mist miraculously revived and stood up again.
He looked just like the shadowy creatures now—infected, transformed into one of them.
"What the hell is this?!"
"They can turn us into one of them?! That's cheating!!"
Everyone was shocked, their faces pale.
They couldn't fight these things, and if they were killed, they'd just become enemies themselves.
What the hell!
How are we supposed to deal with this?!
On the other side of the street.
A group of gang members huddled together, weapons in hand, looking at each other in confusion.
"Are you from the Black Dragon Organization?"
"Aren't you from the other street?!"
"That street's been wiped out. I saw our boss get turned into one of those shadows."
"What?"
"Wait, this isn't the time to argue about that."
"We need to figure out how to fight back!"
One of them suggested, his voice trembling with unease.
"But these things aren't even human! How are we supposed to fight them?"
Another member leaned against the wall, panting heavily, his eyes filled with terror.
One of them stood up, holding a cross. "Isn't it written in books? To deal with supernatural stuff, crosses and garlic are the most effective!"
As soon as he finished speaking.
Buzz—!
Several shadowy creatures emerged from the gang members' shadows and lunged at them again, their sharp claws slicing through the air, aiming straight for their throats.
"!!"
"They're here!! Quick, do something with that cross!!"
One of the gang members screamed in panic.
The man with the cross charged forward, shouting, "Evil spirits, be gone!"
Splat!!!
In response, the claws sliced through both the cross and his head, blood spraying out, stark against the night sky.
Everyone: !!!!
One of the gang members suddenly widened his eyes in horror and shouted, "I just remembered! Crosses and garlic are for killing vampires!"
"What good does remembering that do now?!!"
The gang members' screams echoed through the night, but soon they were swallowed by the darkness. The tranquility of the night seemed to collapse completely at that moment.
Nearby, in a residential building.
Click!
A window opened, and a resident, annoyed by the noise, shouted out, "What the hell are you guys yelling about in the middle of the night?!"
"Do you even care if people have to work tomorr... huh?"
He was about to continue scolding when the scene outside his window left him speechless.
He saw the shadowy creatures wreaking havoc on the streets, tearing apart the gang members' bodies, blood splattering everywhere. The horrifying sight froze him in place, unable to make a sound.
The dark figures in the night were like gods of death, sending chills down his spine.
"Roar...?"
One of the shadowy creatures looked up, confused.
Click!
The man quickly shut the window and began trembling.
He must have been working too much overtime. He was definitely hallucinating.
Meanwhile, in the headquarters of the various underworld families in Cherry Blossom City.
With their leaders gone, everyone was running around like headless chickens.
The shadowy creatures' attack tonight had thrown everyone into a state of panic.
Jiutian Family.
Jiutian Dudao paced anxiously back and forth in the hall.
What the hell is going on? How did things turn out like this?
The Alliance Building was bombed, the underworld bosses were killed.
And now these shadowy creatures are attacking the rebellious gang members on the streets...
This... this...
Jiutian Dudao had received news that out of Cherry Blossom City's 11 districts, 7 had already fallen in just this short time.
The only relatively safe area was their own District 11.
But strangely, these shadowy creatures only attacked the underworld factions and those with strange supernatural abilities.
It seemed like they were organized and disciplined.
Who could be behind this?
Most importantly, how could this happen before we've even held my father's funeral?
At that moment.
"B-b-b-boss!!"
A subordinate rushed in, panicking.
Jiutian Dudao looked over and frowned. "What is it?"
"The boss is at the entrance!!"
"??"
Jiutian Dudao was stunned for a moment, then her pupils trembled.
What?! My father's alive?!
She rushed to the entrance.
Many members had already gathered there upon hearing the news.
Although Jiutian Dudao didn't believe in the idea of people coming back to life...
But...
"From tonight onward, the Jiutian Family will voluntarily join Miss Su's command. Any objections?"
The head of the Jiutian Family stood at the entrance, his tone serious.
He saw Jiutian Dudao's stunned expression and waved her over. "Daughter, your Black Dragon Organization can be rebuilt."
"But it must also join Miss Su's command."
What the hell?!
Jiutian Dudao was shocked.
What the hell is going on?!
Could it be...
This was all part of Miss Su's plan?!
And also!
I knew it! Su Muwan, you didn't come to Cherry Blossom City just for tourism, did you?! You were putting on an act all along!
That night, all the major and minor underworld families in Cherry Blossom City announced their allegiance to Miss Su.
In a dimly lit corridor of an old residential building.
Qin Luo slowly walked in, listening to the information being transmitted to his mind. He smiled with satisfaction.
Good.
This way, Miss Su will receive good news first thing in the morning.
Now, he just needed to wrap things up on his end.
Thinking this, Qin Luo walked up to a door.
Knock knock~
He gently tapped on the door.
After a moment.
Creak—
The door slowly opened.
A man who looked very gentle and Japanese-style poked his head out, looking at Qin Luo with confusion.
He awkwardly asked, "Hello, who are you?"
Qin Luo smiled and asked, "Minami Izuru?"
Minami Izuru was startled, then nodded, though a hint of wariness flashed in his eyes.
He looked at Qin Luo, his heart sinking.
Something's not right. This man seems friendly and gentle on the surface.
But... he knows my name. His identity must be anything but ordinary.
Plus, I can't get in touch with Momo-chan and the others.
Something... isn't right.
He tensed up, pretending to cooperate as he opened the door wider, asking, "What is it? Is there something you need..."
Before he could finish.
Minami Izuru's expression suddenly changed. He fully opened the door, his eyes sharp like a lion's, and shouted.
【Don't move】!!
Buzz—!
Qin Luo felt his movements suddenly restricted.
"Oh?"
"So this is the power of words? Different from cultivation techniques, it's quite interesting."
He smirked, finding Minami Izuru's cautious demeanor amusing.
Minami Izuru's expression darkened. "You know about my ability? But it's useless."
You can't break free from my restraints now.
As expected, this man is up to no good!
Thinking this, he slowly spoke, continuing to use his power of words: 【Tell me your purpo...】
Slap—!
"Ugh—!"
Before he could finish.
To Minami Izuru's disbelief.
Qin Luo had broken free from the constraints and reached out, slapping him hard.
Thud!
Minami Izuru fell to the ground, clutching his face, his pupils trembling.
He looked up at Qin Luo, who was standing over him, in utter shock.
"How... how?"
This man... he broke my power of words?
Qin Luo shook his wrist, smiling kindly. "Oh, I forgot to mention."
"If I want to slap someone, nothing can stop me."
A slap that defies all, above everything.
【Congratulations, Master, for successfully humiliating the protagonist of destiny, "Minami Izuru."】
【Attribute points obtained: 10】
【Critical hit reward obtained: Spirit Tongue (can control everything based on the strength of the master's mental power).】
Qin Luo glanced down at Minami Izuru, who was staring blankly.
He twisted his neck, a hint of something indescribable flashing in his eyes. Everything was ready.
Only the final step remained.
.....
....
Inside a private room.
"Huh?"
"Cherry Blossom City was attacked?"
A burly man with a bare torso covered in tattoos looked incredulously at the subordinate who came to report the situation.
"Are you kidding me?!"
The man gritted his teeth and roared.
"That's my territory!!"
【The Invincible Underworld System has detected that the host's territory has been invaded!】
【Host, please resolve the crisis!】
【Reward: Unknown!】
The reward is unknown?
The man frowned. Does this mean the difficulty is high?
"Who attacked Cherry Blossom City?"
"Um... it's Su Muwan. It's said that every underworld family is now acknowledging Su Muwan as their big sister from afar."
Su... Su Muwan????!
The man's expression instantly twisted with rage upon hearing this.
Just a mere branch manager from a tiny place!!
Do you really think that just because you unified Jiang City and defeated Yiyi, you can do whatever you want?
How dare you stretch your hand into my territory!!
You're asking for death!!
"Fine, fine, fine."
He stood up, glaring coldly at the subordinate who reported the situation. "Tell Li Mingyuan that I'm returning to headquarters tomorrow."
"Tell him to prepare the most advanced weapons for me!!"
The subordinate was stunned: ...How am I supposed to have the contact information of the headquarters' leadership?
"Uh... Boss, there's one more thing."
"What?"
"I heard that a newcomer has arrived at headquarters, supposedly to replace Miss Yiyi."
"Huh?!"
"Bullshit! No one can replace my Yiyi!!"
The man barked coldly, clenching his fists.
This is perfect. I’ll teach that Wang Yun, who betrayed Yiyi in Jiang City, a lesson!
If it weren’t for his sudden betrayal, Yiyi’s mission wouldn’t have failed!
] This is a dark fantasy-themed dating simulation game. The main gameplay involves containing various monster girls and investigating the truth of a world shrouded in mist alongside your companions. However, due to his love for the dark and bizarre atmosphere, Luo Wei ended up turning a dating game into a detective mystery game. Women? Women only slow down his quickdraw! To Luo Wei, the female leads in the game are more like tools to perfectly clear levels and squeeze out rewards. For Luo Wei, flirting with every girl he meets and then discarding them is standard procedure. Worried about characters losing affection points? No need. With his maxed-out charm stat, Luo Wei is practically a "human incubus." A little psychological manipulation and those points come right back. It's a bit scummy, but the paper cutout heroines in the game won't actually come at him with real cleavers. However... Luo Wei has transmigrated. He's accidentally entered the second playthrough of this game. His past actions have caused all the girls to transform into terrifying yanderes. Due to the game's setting, most of the heroines he once contained are "troubled girls." Obsessive, twisted, mentally unstable, all aggressive yanderes... The type who will kill you if they can't have you... Luo Wei wants to cry but has no tears left. "I really just want to survive..." In short, this is a story of battling wits and engaging in a love-hate relationship with yanderes.
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?!
【Prologue: The Beginning of It All – Use holy water to heal the saintess tainted by demonic energy, then converse with her.】 Shen Nian stared at his older sister sipping yogurt, lost in thought. So you’re telling me my sister is the saintess, and yogurt is the holy water? 【Main Quest 1: Brave Youth, Become an Adventurer! Reward: Rookie Adventurer Title.】 【Side Quest 1: Find the Adorable Kitty! Reward: 1000 Gold Coins.】 Shen Nian: "Wait, I’m a high school senior here—did some guy who got isekai’d accidentally bind his system to me?" Hold on, completing quests gives gold rewards? Titles even boost stats? Is this for real? (A lighthearted, absurd campus comedy—not a revenge power fantasy.)
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.”
