Let me preface this.
Before Ouyang Xuan arrived, he had already prepared himself for the possibility of the Bright Moon Sect being wiped out.
But...

Click~!
"Check-in at Cloud Summit Palace! 10,000 per visit!"
"Photo services available! We'll Photoshop you into Cloud Summit Palace!"
"Hiring staff for Cloud Summit Palace!"
What on earth is going on?
Ouyang Xuan followed the celestial staircase to the location of the Bright Moon Sect.
However, the scene before him was completely different from what he had imagined.
The residents of Jiang City were wandering around like tourists, taking photos and checking in with their phones and backpacks.
Su family's bodyguards were maintaining order and streaming the scene live.
"Hey, move aside, move aside."
A group of people walked over and pushed Ouyang Xuan to the side.
He looked up and saw the stone statue of the Bright Moon Sect's leader being hooked with ropes, ready to be moved.
Beside it stood another statue.
It was a lifelike carving of Su Muwan!
The statue perfectly captured the domineering and invincible aura of its subject.
What is this? What are they doing?
He took a deep breath, his mind struggling to process the situation.
Accompanying him was Li Mingyuan, who glanced around and noticed that, apart from the Jiang City residents, there were also disciples from the sect dressed in uniform robes.
Upon closer inspection, he realized these were indeed the robes of the Bright Moon Sect.
But instead of behaving like the proud disciples of an ancient sect, they were acting like tour guides, leading the visitors around the sect grounds.
Even an elderly man with a powerful aura and a swollen cheek stood at the entrance, amiably handing out flyers.
This...
Li Mingyuan rubbed his temples, his lips twitching as he said, "Minister, no need to think about it. Those two have already taken care of things."
Qin Luo and Su Muwan—ever since the day he met them, he had thought they were utterly outrageous.
Now, seeing this, they were even more outrageous than he could have imagined!
Every disciple had swollen cheeks. This method...
No need to guess! It must have been Su Muwan who told Qin Luo to do it!
Who would have thought? Even an ancient sect like this was no match for them.
Taken care of...? This was more than just "taken care of"...
Ouyang Xuan couldn't hide the shock in his eyes.
Alright, you said you were going to secretly assassinate the prodigies, but when they came to your territory, you not only killed them openly, but you also took over their territory?
And not only that, but you turned it into a tourist attraction??
Excuse me?
Are you even human?
Ouyang Xuan shook his head helplessly. "Never mind that. Let's find out where those two went."
Li Mingyuan nodded.
The next moment.
Wen Mo, with his swollen cheeks, walked over holding a flag. He handed them two flyers and said, "Welcome to Cloud Summit Palace. Here's the visitor guide."
"Also, the two masters have been waiting for you in the Heavenly Palace Hall for quite some time."
So what the hell is Cloud Summit Palace?
The two exchanged a glance and took the guide.
The content of the guide was utterly bizarre.
Alchemy rooms, scripture archives, forging rooms...
What? These are open for visitors to tour??
And according to this Domain-level disciple, Qin Luo and Su Muwan already knew they were coming?
Sigh, it's impossible to figure out what this eccentric master-servant duo is up to.
A moment later.
They arrived at the Heavenly Palace Hall.
Before entering, Ouyang Xuan and Li Mingyuan noticed the old plaque on the ground: "Bright Moon Hall."
Their eyes twitched. Did you even change the name of the sect?
Entering the hall.
It was a spacious chamber, empty except for two figures at the front.
Su Muwan sat on a throne, propping her cheek with one hand as she idly ate grapes.
When she saw Ouyang Xuan and Li Mingyuan, she rolled her eyes in exasperation.
Great, the alliance caught wind of this already.
Qin Luo stood nearby with his hands behind his back. He smiled at the two latecomers and said, "Minister, are you Inspector Megure? The case is already over by the time you arrive."
Choosing to ignore Qin Luo's strange references.
Ouyang Xuan looked around, his eye twitching as he asked, "Is this the Bright Moon Sect?"
Qin Luo nodded with a smile. "Yes."
"Now called Cloud Summit Palace?"
"Mhm."
"Where's the Bright Moon Sect's leader?"
"Didn't you see him? The old man handing out flyers at the entrance."
"......"
Gasp!
Slap!
Ouyang Xuan covered his face, his pupils trembling.
Even though he had already guessed it!
But!!
He peeked through his fingers at Qin Luo above.
The other's smiling expression seemed so sinister and unsettling to him!
No way!
You actually dared to do this? Just tossed the sect leader out to hand out flyers??
Most importantly.
He frowned and asked, "Are you not planning to proceed with the Celestial Squad plan anymore?"
"Aren't you going to kill the prodigies?"
With such a big commotion, other sects will definitely be on guard, and the assassination plan might be stillborn.
Qin Luo chuckled and shook his head. "How could that be?"
"Forming a specialized squad to assassinate prodigies is one of the alliance's primary tasks moving forward."
"Everything I've done is just preparation for what's to come."
"Preparation... huh?"
Ouyang Xuan muttered hesitantly. He didn't believe it.
But looking at Qin Luo's confident and convincing expression, he had no choice but to believe.
After all, Qin Luo and Su Muwan were the most unpredictable and eccentric individuals he had ever met.
"Alright, but what exactly is your plan moving forward? Can we sit down and have a proper discussion?"
Ouyang Xuan still felt uneasy. Qin Luo's habit of speaking in half-truths left him with no sense of security. He looked at Qin Luo, then at Su Muwan.
He said seriously, "I can't gamble with the future of modern martial artists. Miss Su, let's move to headquarters and discuss the selection of the Celestial Squad."
"And the follow-up plan for hunting prodigies."
Li Mingyuan, being slightly more reliable than others at headquarters, was the first to learn about this plan from Ouyang Xuan.
At first, he was against it, but when he heard it was proposed by Qin Luo and Su Muwan, he immediately agreed.
No joke.
Based on his understanding of those two, if he didn't agree now, he'd have to agree later.
To avoid things getting too messy, it was better to join early.
However...
Li Mingyuan subtly glanced at Su Muwan.
She looked calm and composed, making it hard to reconcile her current demeanor with her former reputation as a spoiled heiress.
Who would have thought? The biggest troublemaker in Jiang City, the Su family's young miss who was once dismissed as a tyrant, had such a meticulous mind.
Truly terrifying.
?
(°ー°〃).
Celestial Squad? Killing prodigies?
What is this guy talking about?
Su Muwan was utterly confused inside, but she maintained a composed and strategic exterior.
Since she had spent half the day sleeping and the other half kissing yesterday, Su Muwan felt like she hadn't been involved much.
But.
If you're all saying this...
She glanced subtly at Qin Luo, who was smiling, clearly indicating that he was behind this.
Well, that settles it.
She nodded slightly, "Approved."
fe full of thrilling battles, ultimately sacrificing himself to protect his homeland and its people. Unexpectedly, he was reborn into his youth, where he encountered the campus ice queen, Ye Miyue, now working as a masseuse at his family's martial arts school. "How long have you been doing this?" "I-it's my first time..." the campus belle murmured, her head bowed. Wang Xian remembered clearly that back then, although Ye Miyue had not yet awakened her martial arts talent, her outstanding academic performance, breathtaking beauty, and icy demeanor had made her the moon goddess of every boy in school. He was no exception. In his previous life, they had no connection, never imagining they would meet under such circumstances. Sadly, today the city was attacked by an S-class beast, the 'Wind King Falcon,' destroying nearly half of the city streets. Ye Miyue had died on her way home during this disaster. Now, given a second chance, facing the campus goddess of his youth, Wang Xian resolutely decided to extend her session! And so. "My hands are tired..." the blushing campus belle whispered, relieved. Wang Xian pointed to her slender calves and said, "Who said only hands can massage? There are feet too!" "Extend the session, continue!"
m back to his original world. In the end, he realized he had overthought things. [Hey, why is Shen Manni, the female lead, acting strange? Shouldn't she be fawning over the male lead at this point?] [Zhou Qiaoqiao, are you sick? Weren't you supposed to break off your engagement today?] [Damn it! An Youyi, please do your job as an undercover agent and sell my information to the protagonist, you idiot!] ... At this moment, Xu Mo himself didn't know that these female leads had already heard his inner thoughts. Then they decided not to play by the rules. Xu Mo: Please respect my profession as the big villain!
. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"
iving with nine beautiful women. [Ding! Welcome back to the Joyous Sect, Host…] Lin Yu: ??? I’m clearly in a shared rental, but you’re saying I’m in the Joyous Sect? Watering plants is now [Tending to Spiritual Flora]? Cooking becomes [Researching Elixirs]? Making the bed turns into [Setting Up Formations]? A gentle and innocent auntie, twin classmates, a mysterious hacker girl on leave, a severely socially anxious artist, an elementary school Chinese teacher, a community hospital nurse, a pet shop owner, an antique clock restorer… This system… is kinda interesting.
