I am Lan Xi, the sixth princess of the Sea Clan from a hundred thousand years ago.
The most cherished jewel in the eyes of my elder siblings, my father the Sea King, and my mother the Sea Queen.
The undisputed brightest mind among all marine creatures of the Sea Clan!
But!
But!!!
Lan Xi covered her face, lifting her head in disbelief as the figures of Qin Luo and Su Muwan loomed terrifyingly large through her tear-filled eyes.
Humans... are monsters...
In that moment,
a storm of emotions—grievance, shock, bewilderment, and sheer disbelief—surged from the depths of her chest.
Plip-plop-plip!
"Waaaaaahhhh!!!"
She flopped onto the ground, her cheeks swollen and red, her eyes bloodshot as she wailed, "You jerks!! You horrible humans!!"
"How could you?! You hit me just for talking!!"
"This is so unfair!!"
"I was just—"
SMACK!!
"Shut it."
Before she could finish,
Qin Luo delivered another slap across her face.
Lan Xi finally quieted down.
Clutching both cheeks, she curled up on the ground, trembling like a leaf.
Sniff... how could this happen?
I was already crying—why did he hit me again?
It's true then...
Lan Xi hiccupped, her teary gaze shifting between Qin Luo and Su Muwan.
Su Muwan, shrouded in a sinister aura under her scrutiny, looked every bit like a demon.
Humans... really are terrifying!
No, no—thankfully, my identity hasn't been exposed yet.
Once I return to the Sea Clan, I’ll report this to Father immediately!
Su Muwan watched Qin Luo land two more slaps and couldn’t help but twitch her lips. She leaned in and whispered, "Hey, Qin Luo... this girl really does seem off. Is she... one of *those*?"
By normal logic,
the only people Qin Luo would slap were either those who crossed the line... or the *Chosen Ones*!
Qin Luo nodded. "Miss, she is indeed *that*."
!!!
"Seriously, *that*?"
"Yes."
Wait, *what* is *that*?!
Lan Xi sniffled, her heart pounding. Could she have been discovered?
No way—she’d hidden herself so well!
The next second,
Qin Luo loomed over Lan Xi, his voice icy. "Why is the Sea Clan’s useless sixth princess lurking in human territory?"
"Speak—what’s your scheme?"
!!
BOOM.
Lan Xi’s mind went blank.
It was as if a bolt of lightning had struck her, freezing her in place.
The tears that had been welling in her eyes now hung forgotten as she stared at Qin Luo, her heart roiling with shock.
Impossible! Her disguise had been flawless—from the transformation spell to mimic human form, down to every mannerism and detail. How had they seen through it?!
A chill crawled up her spine.
Her pupils trembled—humans... were this terrifying?!
It took her a moment to find her voice, and even then, it quivered uncontrollably: "W-what are you talking about? I don’t understand! I’m just a normal girl passing by! I’m no Sea Clan princess!"
"That’s right!"
Lan Xi gulped and shouted, "I’m totally human!! And!"
"I’m *not* useless!"
SMACK!
"Ow!"
Before she could finish,
Su Muwan reached out and yanked the dragon horns on Lan Xi’s head, sighing in exasperation. "Hey!"
"These things kinda ruin your whole ‘I’m just a human’ act, don’t you think?!"
Lan Xi gasped in outrage. "How dare you! These are the noble symbols of my dragon lineage! I can’t just hide—"
Mid-sentence,
she seemed to realize her mistake and chuckled awkwardly. "Uh... hehe... what if I said this was just... cosplay? Would you believe me...?"
Su Muwan: "......"
Enough. I’ve had *enough*.
I *told* you all this world was just a gathering of lunatics, but no one listened.
Now do you believe me?
With a sigh, Su Muwan released the horns and crossed her arms, smiling sweetly. "Take a wild guess."
Lan Xi: "......"
A moment later.
Swoooosh—
The sky above had darkened without warning, thick storm clouds pressing down like a suffocating blanket.
Waves raged violently around them, icy spray pelting Lan Xi’s body.
But no matter how cold the seawater was, it couldn’t compare to the freezing dread in her heart.
Every droplet seemed to echo her misery, mourning her plight.
She lay limp on the churning sea surface, her usual grace and vitality utterly gone.
Her soaked hair clung messily to her face, making the bright red slap marks even more glaring.
Her eyes hollow, Lan Xi murmured, "It’s over... my dragon life..."
"Forgive me, Father... forgive me, Mother..."
"Forgive me, my shrimp soldiers and crab generals..."
"I’ve been exposed."
Five baby sharks circled her, nuzzling her face comfortingly. "Awoo!"
"Ah... thanks for cheering me up, my newly befriended... unenlightened companions..."
Qin Luo and Su Muwan ignored Lan Xi’s mumbling and focused on processing the intel they’d just extracted.
The Sea Clan’s awakening... the Sea King’s ambition to conquer the world?
From the sound of it, he’d tried this a hundred thousand years ago—and failed?
Now he’s... making a comeback?
But the real kicker was—
SMACK!
Su Muwan slapped her own forehead, her pupils shaking. "Why now?! Why *now*?!"
"The *one* time I step out for a stroll, and suddenly the Sea Clan’s plotting world domination?!"
She was floored.
What kind of nonsense was this?!
She’d just wanted to enjoy the nice weather, and now she was dealing with ancient sea overlords and their schemes?
"So what do we do now?" Su Muwan groaned. "The Ancient Desolation Realm... the Profound Heaven Realm... how many more ancient factions are waiting to pop up?!"
"We haven’t even settled things with the Profound Heaven Realm, and now the Ancient Desolation Realm’s making moves?!"
"Ever since this era of spiritual revival began, every monster and madman’s crawled out of the woodwork!"
"Qin Luo, use your divination skills and figure something out!"
Qin Luo nodded, raising a hand to perform a quick calculation. In an instant,
a vision flashed through his mind:
[You’ve lost your minds! The chaos you humans caused—why must we Sea Clan suffer too?!]
[Keh-keh-keh-keh-keh~~~]
[No! How is Su Muwan even *more* terrifying after death?!]
[Gah!! The Frostbound Wraith! A vengeful spirit born from boundless resentment—the most malevolent of evils!!]
[Keh-keh-keh-keh-keh~~~~]
[Sea King!! The ocean—it’s freezing over!!]
[What?! Humans! Truce! We’ll settle our feud *after* we exterminate this Su Muwan abomination!]
[Agreed!]
[Keh-keh-keh-keh-keh~~]
[Why does this wraith only *laugh* like that?!]
s the Eldest Princess, renowned for her cold and aloof detachment, became the most docile of lambs, obeying his every command without question. But when the final move was played on the chessboard, as Gu Chenghan seized everything and ascended on the verge of apotheosis, that very Princess suddenly embraced him from behind, her tone carrying a dependence never heard before: "Wait... you haven't yet... commanded me to love you forever." Gu Chenghan froze abruptly. She... hadn't been hypnotized?! ... [The Eldest Princess's Diary] [When my soul was extracted, becoming the sole spectator outside my own shell] [At first, there was overwhelming fury, until I saw] [How he used my sword to effortlessly shatter my inescapable doom] [How he wielded my authority to eradicate fatal conspiracies I had never even detected] [Like a deity, he rescued me from the deep mire I was trapped in] [If not for those annoying vixens, he and I would be a match made in heaven] [I think I am ill, gravely ill] [My deity should belong to me alone] ...

e vast world of cultivation, where he becomes the master of the Heavenly Ruins Sacred Hall, a dying old man with barely a tenth of his former cultivation remaining. He is immediately confronted with a deadly crisis: his subordinates have rebelled, and his protectors are forcing him to abdicate. At the critical moment, the system descends from the heavens: [Ding! The host has been detected facing a life-or-death crisis. The system is now officially activated!] [As a gift, you have received the Supreme Beginner’s Pack and awakened the ultimate cheat: ten thousand years of pure cultivation essence every second!] Yin Tianjue: “Wait… ten thousand years of cultivation every second? That’s six hundred thousand years a minute, and in one day… I can’t even calculate it. Either way, I’m already invincible!” You’re a peerless prodigy rarely seen in ten thousand years? Sorry, I gain ten thousand years of cultivation every second. You’re an undying ancestor who has guarded a sacred land for countless ages? Sorry, I gain ten thousand years of cultivation every second. You’re the strongest chosen one, blessed with heaven-defying destiny? Sorry, I gain ten thousand years of cultivation every second. From this day forth, I have only one thing to say: “I gain ten thousand years of cultivation every second. Now, how exactly are you supposed to deal with that?”

Since his transmigration, he has gained immortality, and also a system that awards him with attribute points for every year he lives. Thus between the myriad worlds, the legend of an unparalleled senior appeared. "A gentleman takes revenge; it is never too late even after ten thousand years."
