This Is Not a Question of Whether We Can Win

The barrier dissipated, and the entire hall fell into complete silence.

Everyone stared stiffly at Su Muwan, who had just arrogantly and ruthlessly incapacitated a group of Transcendents without a second thought. They collectively gasped in shock.

Domineering! Tyrannical! Brutally straightforward!

This woman... is utterly terrifying!

But the most important thing was...

It was confirmed!

Su Muwan was indeed a system possessor! She was truly a renowned Transcendent!

Li Mingyuan, clutching his swollen cheek, looked at Su Muwan with an expression of disbelief.

They had long suspected that Su Muwan was a Transcendent.

They had even wanted to invite her to join the Alliance headquarters.

But... when faced with the reality, he finally realized.

This person! Not only was she a Transcendent! Not only was she a system possessor! She was also an extremely dangerous entity!

Who else would unify Cherry Blossom City one second and then immediately storm the headquarters the next, precisely targeting Kuroda Yama and crippling his cultivation?

Such cunning! Such power!

Li Mingyuan suddenly recalled the phrase that online trolls had edited together from Su Muwan's words:

["Before the spiritual energy, before the heavens, Su Muwan was already there."]

Originally, he thought she was just arrogant, but now...

The weight of those words seemed to be growing even heavier!

No... the most pressing issue was, how should they handle this situation?

Think fast.

Li Mingyuan's breathing grew slightly rapid, his head still spinning from the slap Qin Luo had delivered earlier.

Su Muwan had attacked Kuroda Yama and crippled over a dozen Transcendents.

Such crimes... under normal circumstances, would warrant an immediate siege.

But... gulp...

Li Mingyuan swallowed hard as he looked at Su Muwan and Qin Luo. A phrase popped into his mind:

["The Bully Duo."]

A siege would only work if they could actually win.

But could they?

Based on the videos and records, Su Muwan and Qin Luo's combat style was brutally simple.

It was almost always an instant victory.

So, there was no way to gauge their true strength.

Moreover, the two had barged in unexpectedly, which meant they likely had other tricks up their sleeves.

The leader was in seclusion and unavailable. Even if they could defeat these two, could they really stop them from leaving?

Most importantly, Su Muwan's system was bizarrely powerful—it could strip others of their systems!

If they were allowed to roam free, wouldn't they become a massive threat?

So, heavens, are you out of your mind?

How could you grant someone such an overpowered system?

Isn't this just unfair to the rest of us?

As Li Mingyuan's mind raced with these thoughts, Wang Yun couldn't take the tension anymore. He stepped forward, his eyes blazing with anger, and pointed at Su Muwan and Qin Luo, shouting, "What kind of joke is this?! This is the headquarters! How dare you attack here?!"

Wang Yun had been invited to join the headquarters for his commitment to justice and righteousness!

But... Su Muwan and Qin Luo's actions were nothing short of trampling on his beliefs and dignity!

As soon as he finished speaking—

Boom—!

Before Wang Yun could react, a surge of icy spiritual energy, like a violent storm, slammed into his chest.

"Ugh—!!"

Wang Yun groaned, blood gushing from his mouth as he was sent flying backward, crashing into the wall behind him.

He clutched his chest, his face a mix of shock and disbelief.

One hit... I didn't even see it coming.

How...?

He looked up, his eyes filled with disbelief as he stared at the person who had struck him.

The gap... was this huge?

Su Muwan stood there, her expression haughty, her right hand still slightly raised. She glanced coldly at Wang Yun and said indifferently, "So what if I attacked?"

Then, she turned her gaze to the other Alliance members, who were suppressing a mix of emotions, and said coldly, "Don't even think about all of you attacking together."

"Even if there were ten more! Thirty more! Three hundred more!"

She clenched her fist, her eyes sharpening. "This young lady could crush you all with a single palm!"

Buzz—!

Her words left everyone's minds blank.

So... so audacious!

This...

Everyone had only heard of Su Muwan or seen her online.

But now, seeing her in person, they finally understood.

This person!

Truly looked down on everyone! Truly did as she pleased! Truly lawless!

Li Mingyuan's heart sank. With such confidence, her reliance must undoubtedly be the system she possessed.

Damn it, the heavens are unjust, granting such a venomous woman such a heaven-defying system.

After finishing her words, Su Muwan casually glanced at the crowd, then turned away, saying calmly, "Boring."

"Qin Luo, let's go."

Qin Luo, who had been standing by with a faint smile, nodded slightly. "Yes, Miss."

As he spoke, he glanced at Wang Yun, who had been sent flying into the corner by a blast of spiritual energy.

One, two, three... scream.

"Wait!!!"

However, before Su Muwan and Qin Luo could leave, Wang Yun, leaning against the wall, glared at them with fury in his eyes.

Crash—!

Bits of stone fell from the wall.

Ye Zhidie, standing in the crowd, twitched her eye. "Damn it, these two are clearly about to leave. What is Wang Yun provoking them for?!"

Wang Xiaohua, pale with fear, stammered, "S-save us... are we going to die...?"

Wait, is this going to...

Only Su Bailian, seeing this scene, slowly formed a picture in her mind. She blinked, quickly getting into character.

Her eyes slightly reddened, and her breathing grew quicker.

"My goal in joining the headquarters was to protect the weak from being bullied."

Wang Yun steadied himself, adopting a combat stance, his eyes blazing as he stared at Su Muwan and shouted, "Su Muwan!! As a human being, don't you feel even a shred of guilt?!"

"You bullied Bailian! You drove her out of her home!"

"And now you've come to the headquarters to attack Alliance members!"

"I know I'm no match for you! But! My heart tells me!"

"If I let you leave, my martial path will end here!!"

His aura and conviction began to rise.

Taking a deep breath, Wang Yun roared at Su Muwan, "This isn't about whether I can win or not!!!"

"It's about the fact that I must stand here!!!"

Ye Zhidie and the others murmured in surprise, "Wang Yun's conviction is so strong. With such determination, could he actually defeat Su Muwan?"

At this moment, the other Transcendents clenched their fists, cheering loudly, "Go, Wang Yun!!"

"Wang Yun, you can do it!!"

Hearing the cheers, Wang Yun took another deep breath.

I can do this. The passive effect of my Divine Fist System—the stronger my conviction, the greater my power boost!

Looking at it this way...

Wang Yun tightened his fist, his eyes serious as he stared at Su Muwan. I can win!!!

Boom!

A powerful surge of spiritual energy erupted from his body.

Divine Fist Domain!!!!!

He roared, charging at Su Muwan with his fist clenched, "Su Muwan!!!! Prepare to die......"

However.

"Annoying."

Slap!!

"Ugh—!!"

Before Wang Yun could react, a crisp slap echoed through the air, shattering all his thoughts.

His body was sent flying like a broken kite, crashing into the wall.

Thud!

He hit the wall hard and slid down to the ground.

"Eh......"

Wang Yun's mind went blank.

His cheek burned with intense pain, and he let out a groan of agony and confusion.

I... lost again?

Just Became Emperor, Already Assassinated by the Son of Destiny

Just Became Emperor, Already Assassinated by the Son of Destiny

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.
