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: ?
] 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.
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.”
