Buzz!
“So this is what’s inside the gate?”
Stepping through the bronze door, Su Muwan curiously surveyed her surroundings.
The world beyond the gate was like another realm entirely—mist curled through the air, and the faint outlines of pavilions and towers loomed in the distance.
Qin Luo tapped his fingers lightly and nodded. “This is the former site of the Taigu Xuan Sect.”
“Countless opportunities lie here, but only the fated ones can claim them.”
Hearing this, Su Muwan scoffed. “‘Fated ones’? You just mean those with higher luck stats, the so-called ‘chosen ones.’”
“I refuse to believe that. If I want an opportunity, who dares say I can’t take it?”
She turned to Qin Luo. “So, Qin Luo! Use that overpowered divination ability of yours and figure something out!”
“Tell me what my future holds!”
Qin Luo tapped his fingertips again.
A vision flashed before him.
[Su Muwan! What the hell are you doing?!]
[Killing the inheritor! The space is collapsing! How are we supposed to get out?!]
[Hah! Simple.]
[I’ll just take the inheritance for myself!]
Snapping back to reality, Qin Luo cleared his throat. “Go wild, young mistress.”
“Oh?”
A smirk curled on Su Muwan’s lips. She raised her hand—
Snap!
In an instant, an overwhelming, invisible force of perception erupted from her body, surging outward like a tidal wave. In the blink of an eye, it blanketed the entire ruins.
Within her senses, every blade of grass, every brick and tile of the Taigu Xuan Sect’s ruins became crystal clear. Threads of spiritual energy intertwined like an intricate, grand map.
She could detect hidden dangers lurking in every corner and pinpoint the faint, unique pulses of spiritual energy marking the hidden opportunities.
“Found it.”
Su Muwan’s brow arched. She grabbed Qin Luo’s hand. “Let’s go—ten miles ahead!”
“Use Shadow Blink to get there!”
Qin Luo blinked.
Seriously, young mistress, you owe an apology to all those explorers who painstakingly navigate traps and chart paths the hard way.
A moment later—
Whoosh!
With a flicker of shadows, the two appeared before an ancient stone platform.
Qin Luo looked up. Floating above the platform was a translucent jade slip, shimmering with light as spiritual energy swirled around it—clearly the vessel of some powerful legacy.
“Such a cliché way to store an opportunity.”
Su Muwan rolled her eyes, then pulled Qin Luo onto the platform.
Just as she reached out to touch the jade slip—
Buzz!
[Inheritor… you’ve finally arrived…]
A translucent figure of an elderly man materialized, dressed in plain robes with flowing white hair.
He seemed about to deliver some scripted NPC dialogue—
Until his sharp eyes landed on Su Muwan.
Instantly, his pupils shrank, his gaze turning hawk-like.
Su Muwan nodded. “Yep, I’m the inheritor. Hand it over.”
“Bullshit!”
Su Muwan: “?”
The old man scrutinized her, then roared, “You vile creature!!”
“Drenched in wicked energy! Wreathed in black miasma! A righteous and harmonious legacy like this is not for the likes of you!”
With that, the glow around him dimmed, as if he were preparing to fade back into slumber.
Excuse me?!
Su Muwan’s delicate features twisted in fury. Trembling with rage, she gritted her teeth. “You decrepit old ghost! What did you just say?!”
“Even in death, you can’t mind your own business? This opportunity is right here—who says I can’t take it?!”
Without another word, she unleashed her spiritual energy. Her robes billowed, her dark hair whipping wildly as an overwhelming force surged around her.
“What I want, I take!”
She unleashed a barrage of spells, her spiritual power crashing toward the old man like a furious tide.
But instead of dispersing his soul, her attacks phased right through him, striking the empty air behind.
“Damn old fossil!”
Su Muwan’s eyes burned with frustration.
The elder hadn’t expected such arrogance. Convinced of his judgment, he sneered, “Give up. I am but a wisp of legacy—your attacks cannot harm—”
SMACK!!!
Before he could finish—
Qin Luo stepped forward and backhanded the old man across the face.
For a moment, the elder’s soul froze mid-air, his head tilted to the side, utterly stunned.
His translucent eyes bulged in disbelief.
What…
I… got slapped?!
Qin Luo retracted his hand, his tone bored. “Enough nonsense. Even in death, you’re insufferable.”
“Old man, consider this a lesson in modern etiquette.”
“When you meet my young mistress, you hand over the treasures politely.”
“Otherwise, I’ll stuff you into the Ten Thousand Demon Banner for a chat.”
Su Muwan blinked, then stared at Qin Luo in awe. “Qin Luo?! You can slap souls?!”
This was unexpected—Qin Luo was downright broken!
Since when could he physically hit spirits?!
Qin Luo shrugged, raising his palm with a smirk. “I have a technique—Soul-Smacking Hand.”
“Hell yeah!”
Seizing the moment, Su Muwan snatched the jade slip, her face lighting up with triumph. “Hah! Try and stop me now! Did you forget who’s backing me?!”
“A T0 protagonist isn’t someone you NPCs can mess with!”
T0 protagonist?
Qin Luo tilted his head.
Since when was he T0?
In this world, he’d always kept a low profile. Only now did he have some ability to protect himself.
The elder’s soul finally recovered, clutching his stinging cheek.
Watching Su Muwan toy with the jade slip, he trembled with outrage. “You insolent brats! You—you defy all decency!!”
“This is the sacred legacy of our Taigu Xuan—”
SMACK!!
“Ghk—!”
Qin Luo struck again, his voice icy. “Shut it.”
The slap sent the elder’s flickering soul reeling.
He clutched his face, his pupils shaking.
He… hit me again?!
Su Muwan rolled her eyes.
Honestly.
Why do people keep testing the authority of a good slap?
Whatever.
Time to see what’s inside.
As Su Muwan inspected the jade slip, the elder watched in despair.
It’s over.
The slip contained a supreme cultivation technique of the Taigu Xuan Sect—meant only for their true inheritor.
It was also the key to unlocking the greatest legacy.
And now… it had fallen into the hands of this wicked duo.
Just as he lamented—
CRACK!
“What garbage. Not even worth learning.”
Su Muwan crushed the jade slip in her palm, her lips curling in disdain. “The Tai Xuan Demon Sect’s techniques are better.”
“And this was supposed to be the third-greatest faction of its time?”
Qin Luo nodded. “To be fair, anyone can boast.”
“If they were truly strong, they wouldn’t have been wiped out.”
Su Muwan shrugged. “True. Guess everyone was scammed.”
“The Taigu Xuan Sect was just trash.”
The elder: ???
Shattered. Somewhere, an old man quietly shattered into pieces.
The old man's illusory figure wavered unsteadily, his spirit on the verge of collapse. Embracing the idea of his soul's annihilation, he let out a final roar at Qin Luo and Su Muwan: "You two venomous snakes!!"
"Do you think this jade slip is the greatest treasure of these ruins?"
"Wrong! This jade slip is merely the key to the door!"
"The true ultimate treasure lies ahead—and it depends on this very technique!"
"And without me, you outsiders who aren’t inheritors of the Taigu Xuan Sect will never obtain the greatest opportunity!!"
With that, the radiance around him rapidly faded.
He chose to vanish completely from this world.
The old man lifted his head and gently closed his eyes.
I have guarded the final dignity of the Taigu Xuan Sect.
Meanwhile, Qin Luo and Su Muwan exchanged a glance.
And then...
"What the hell is he babbling about?"
Qin Luo seized the old man’s lingering soul, his lips curling into a smirk. "Since you’ve said so much..."
"You might as well become my shadow creature and guide us forward."
Old man: ?
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?!
ave】 Shen Qingling was a man with peerless looks, a cunning mind, and the ability to play both the aloof noble and the innocent sweetheart—a master of seduction who could outplay any player. But after an untimely death, he found himself bound to a system and transmigrated into the tragic "true young master" of a melodramatic novel. In the original story, his childhood sweetheart treated him as a backup plan, his fiancée swore to break off their engagement for the sake of the "fake young master," and his own sister saw him as the family's disgrace. He was nothing more than a rat everyone wanted to stomp on. System 077: "Your mission is to change the original fate and conquer the goddesses." Shen Qingling: "Thanks for the invite. If seduction had tiers, I’d be max level." His childhood sweetheart knelt, begging for forgiveness: "Qingling, I was wrong. Please give me another chance." His ex-fiancée refused to marry anyone else: "Shen Qingling, I was blind before. In this life, I’ll marry no one but you." A yandere CEO went mad for love: "Shen Qingling, you can only like me. I’ll stop at nothing to make you mine!" His green-tea sister clung to him daily: "Brother, look at me, won’t you? I’m more obedient than them—I love you the most~" At first, they scorned and trampled on him. Later, they burned themselves like moths to a flame, all for his sake. His looks were his weapon, his sweet words the bait—heroines obsessed over him, villains turned to madness for him. Shen Qingling became a true male siren, igniting battlefield after battlefield of women fighting for his affection. Years later, when System 077—now one of the elites—was asked how to become as outstanding as it, it lazily exhaled a smoke ring and replied: "Just know how to cheer ‘666’ at the right time."
