Qin Luo and Su Muwan had already left Destiny Mental Hospital.
Before their departure,
the newly reborn Doctor Ya shared one final piece of intelligence.
[This system will help you counter opponents with [Rule-based] abilities.]
[For Concept-based and Causality-based abilities, you must first encounter and withstand them before this system can absorb and analyze their power.]
[Additionally—and most crucially—every minor world contains "Pawns" invested by upper-world entities. Any Chosen One with over 1 million units of destiny energy will become a "Pawn"...]
Sizzle—!
At the Su family villa's kitchen,
Qin Luo stared pensively at the pork cutlets bubbling in the frying oil.
The influx of information was substantial.
Beyond the known fact of hunting the ultimate boss known as "Janitors," he'd learned their merged world was referred to as a "minor world."
Upper-world entities would select suitable Chosen Ones from minor worlds to wager on, turning them into their "Pawns."
This seemed to serve some grander purpose.
Additionally—
Master-Servant Bond System
[Bound to Sole Master: Su Muwan (View Personal Attributes)]
[Reverse Nurturing (Passive): Emotional fluctuations from the master generate bond energy (Previous loyalty values have been fully converted to bond energy)]
[Current Bond Level: 3 (Increases through coordinated actions). Unlocked Fusion Skills. Unlocked Bond Powers.]
He shook his head. Well, just as he'd expected.
Since the "Lackey System" had bound Su Muwan as his master,
this system followed suit.
As for the "Reverse Nurturing" passive...
Qin Luo's eyebrow twitched.
Wasn't this just the old "Puppy System's" loyalty absorption under a new name?
Had everything merged together?
[Yes, Master~ The puppy is still here too.]
Shut it.
[Okay... (whimpering)]
Scanning further, the system's description indicated
he and Su Muwan were jointly bound to it.
Their interfaces appeared nearly identical, save for personal attributes.
After all, while her panel displayed certain functions, Qin Luo could see them—just not use them.
First, the bond powers:
[Bond Powers]
Level: Lv.3 (Increases through coordinated actions)
Abilities:
- Telepathic Link (Hear each other's thoughts in relaxed states)
- Rule Resonance (Analyze flaws in enemy's rules)
- Su Muwan (Master): Rule Veto (3 daily forced interruptions of enemy rules)
- Qin Luo (Servant): Rule Breaker (Immunity to rules)
- Concept Deconstruction (Materialize enemy rules as physical chains—shattering all chains dismantles the ability)
- Master's Shield (Activates a 5-meter absolute defense barrier; all damage to Su Muwan is redirected to Qin Luo)
Damn, all this at Level 3?
And... what was this "Telepathic Link" nonsense?
Hearing each other's thoughts?
Qin Luo listened briefly but detected nothing yet.
Rule Resonance... Rule Veto—so the young mistress gets blatant cheats, huh?
Not that I can talk. "Concept Deconstruction" basically gives rules a health bar.
Master's Shield... My full-defense build finally pays off.
No wonder Doctor Ya said this system countered Rule-based foes.
Glancing through, nearly every ability targeted them.
One final section remained:
[Fusion Skills]
① Back-to-Back Combat: 10x power boost! Rule flaw analysis speed +200%!
② Hand-in-Hand: Expend bond energy to "create miracles"
[Current Bond Energy: 11,234]
?
The combat skill made sense, but...
"Hand-in-Hand to release bond energy"?
Is this a Spirit Bomb knockoff?!
Beyond this, other features stayed locked.
Notably, the Lackey System's original panels remained intact:
[Lackey Skill Tree], [Janitor Handbook], [Shadowforge Almanac], etc.
With his review complete, Qin Luo exhaled.
Time to...
"Focus on cooking lunch."

Living Room
For once, Su Muwan wasn't lazily snacking on chips while watching TV.
Instead, she scrutinized her system panel with unprecedented intensity—
though her dizzy, overwhelmed expression betrayed her struggle.
Yet!
"Hehe..."
Rubbing her eyes, Su Muwan's lips curled uncontrollably.
Excitement glittered in her gaze.
Forget the details!
Only two points mattered:
[1. I can force Qin Luo to endure my whims DAILY.]
[2. I can hear his inner thoughts.]
This...
Is PERFECT!
She itched to test it immediately!
Just then—
"Young Mistress, the pork cutlets are ready."
Qin Luo entered carrying a golden-brown plate, only to see Su Muwan spring from the sofa.
Perched on the cushions, her toes sinking into the plush rug, she leveled a glittering stare at him.
"Qin Luo—"
She deliberately drew out his name, then pressed a slender finger against his chest as he approached.
"According to the Master-Servant System's basics..." Her smirk deepened. "What should you call me now?"
Residual heat from the oil clung to Qin Luo's fingertips. His gaze dropped to the rebellious curl of her hair,
then lower—to the faint tremble along her collarbone. Trying so hard to act domineering while nervous?
Tch.
With a low chuckle, Qin Luo set the plate on the coffee table. Silverware clinked against glass.
As Su Muwan instinctively retreated half a step, he caged her against the wall with one arm.
"As you command... Master."
His whisper brushed her scarlet-tinged ear.
Instantly, their system panels erupted with notifications:
[Bond Energy +10]
[Bond Energy +10]
[Bond Energy +10]
Nuh-uh! Why visualize this NOW?!
A thrill of inexplicable excitement surged through Su Muwan.
Haaah...
So good...
I'm floating...
That single word from Qin Luo sent her spiraling into euphoria.
Hehe...
Bet he thinks I'm some kinda deviant now...
Good thing he can't actually hear my—
Her thoughts froze.
Qin Luo's amused gaze locked onto hers.
Then—without speaking—his voice echoed directly in her mind, laced with laughter:
[If you blush this easily, 'Master'... maybe skip the tyrant act? I hear all your inner monologues.]
One second. Two. Three—
"GYAAAHH!! ⁄(⁄⁄•⁄ω⁄•⁄⁄)⁄"
Crimson-faced, Su Muwan clapped both hands over Qin Luo's mouth. "NO PEEKING AT MY THOUGHTS!"
"But Young Mistress, it's a system feature. Speaking of which..." He tilted his head. "Do you like me?"
"Who cares about you! I don’t like you! I hate you the most!"
[Like like super like! I love Luo the most!]
"Oh, I heard that again."
"Drop dead!"
Su Muwan bit her lip in embarrassment, her face flushed as she glared at Qin Luo. "How dare a mere Qin Luo act so arrogantly!"
"Fine! You asked for it!"
She covered her eyes with her hands and shouted, "Amatelas!! Qin Luo! This young lady is going to punish you now!"
[Effect of Lord’s Descent activated]
[Daily forced command—usage limit reached for today]

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.”
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.

The first randomly selected passerby was caught in less than an hour. But when Xu Moru was selected, things started to take an unexpected turn. "Damn, this isn't how the script goes. This Xu Moru is too bold, he's not following the rules at all." "Crap, is this guy taking it seriously?" "The female celebrity has been scared to tears!"
