"Whew! I'm exhausted!"
Su Muwan walked out of a massive villa with a look of utter despair, as if all her energy had been drained.
Su Bailian had wanted to familiarize herself with the new home's layout (since the villa had been restructured due to ascension) and also check where Pochi's doghouse was. So, she had decided to stay behind for the time being.
Su Muwan rubbed her temples and muttered under her breath, "How are my parents so full of questions?"
"From the moment we stepped inside, they wouldn't stop talking! Asking about this and that, poking into everything!"
"Even my usually stoic dad had more to say than usual."
Qin Luo followed beside her, a faint smile playing on his lips.
In a gentle tone, he said, "Miss, let's go check on the progress of the new Holy Domain later."
"Ouyang Xuan sent me a message saying it's finished."
Wait, is that even relevant right now?
Su Muwan immediately turned her head to glare at Qin Luo, her voice laced with complaint, "And you're laughing! Why didn't you help me explain things earlier?"
"My parents grilled me until my head spun, and you just stood there playing mute."
Qin Luo raised an eyebrow and spread his hands in mock innocence. "Miss, your parents were asking about us. How could I possibly interrupt?"
"Besides, their questions weren't exactly bad, right?"
"Not bad?!"
Su Muwan's cheeks instantly flushed crimson. "They asked if we were really together! When we're getting married! How many kids we plan to have! How is that not bad?!"
"Ugh..."
She grabbed Qin Luo's hand and pressed it against her forehead. "Why does everyone seem to know about us now?"
"Are we really that obvious?"
Qin Luo blinked, watching Su Muwan's flustered and adorable expression.
Internally, he nodded.
The troubled young miss—utterly adorable, no matter what!
He deliberately leaned closer and lowered his voice. "So, Miss... when are we getting married?"
"You—!"
Su Muwan stomped her foot in embarrassment and raised a fist to smack him, but Qin Luo caught her wrist mid-air.
With a light tug, she tumbled into his arms.
"Qin Luo! Let me go!"
She struggled half-heartedly for a moment before giving up, though she continued grumbling, "You're such a jerk, always teasing me!"
"Miss, let's not jump to conclusions about who'll be teasing whom after marriage."
"More importantly..."
Qin Luo looked down at her, his gaze tender as he gently ruffled her hair. "Miss."
"I promise, as long as I'm here, you'll be happy."
At those words, Su Muwan lifted her head, her heart fluttering at the sincerity in his expression.
She blinked, then suddenly pinched his cheeks and put on a fierce act. "Hmph, you'd better keep your word! If you dare make me unhappy, I'll... I'll..."
"You'll what?" Qin Luo grinned.
Su Muwan thought for a second before flashing a mischievous smile, revealing a row of pearly whites. "I'll bite you to death!"
Qin Luo burst into laughter and tousled her hair. "Miss, can we negotiate a different punishment?"
"Like what?"
"Stomp me to death—preferably while wearing your thigh-high boots and sheer 0D stockings!"
Su Muwan froze. "Excuse me?"
Qin Luo clenched his fist, his expression dead serious. "First, the confined space would blend into a complex, intoxicating aroma!"
"Hey, hey, why are you suddenly explaining this?!"
"Then, as the boots slide off, revealing those flawless, slightly steamy feet—"
The more he imagined, the wider his grin grew.
"??"
Su Muwan stood there, utterly scandalized, her toes curling in her shoes.
What the—?!
What kind of shameless nonsense are you spouting?!
Wipe that outrageous look off your face!
Now you've got me thinking about your hands too!!!
That...
Hsss... sounds kinda amazing...
The two locked eyes, then simultaneously burst into laughter.
"Haha, just kidding! X2"
"......"
"Tonight?"
"OK."
......
......
As the evening sun dipped below the horizon, painting the sky in brilliant shades of red, the entire Holy Domain seemed bathed in a golden glow.
"Bro Luo, the signal towers are all set up! The Spirit Energy Network covers the whole Holy Domain now!"
Ouyang Xuan reported excitedly, holding a tablet. "Regular signal towers from our old world don’t work here at all."
"But by integrating the System with the spiritual energy of this realm, we’ve created a [Spirit Energy Network] that functions just like the old one—maybe even better."
"We’ve also detected new signals, likely from nearby Holy Domains. If they have similar networks, we could establish a fully interconnected system!"
Qin Luo took the tablet and swiped the screen, pulling up a 3D map of the Holy Domain dotted with glowing nodes.
He nodded in approval. "Good. Next step is connecting the terminal devices."
"Terminal devices?" Su Muwan leaned in curiously. "What’s that?"
"Basically, it lets everyone communicate, access information, and even conduct remote transactions through the Spirit Energy Network."
"You can have items instantly delivered right to you."
"Or... if you want to visit someone, just send a request. Once they approve, you can teleport straight to their location."
Qin Luo smirked. "Miss, you’ll never have to leave your house again. Snacks will just appear at your doorstep."
"Though, on second thought..."
He hesitated, watching Su Muwan’s eyes sparkle with growing excitement, and dragged his finger over the teleportation function. "This might make you even lazier... Maybe we should delete this featu—"
Slap!
Before he could finish, Su Muwan snatched the tablet away.
"Delete nothing! Don’t you dare hinder human progress!"
Her eyes gleamed as she swiped through the interface. "Ooooh!! Snacks! Soda! New game releases! Hehehe drool..."
Qin Luo sighed in amusement. "Miss, save the shopping spree for later. Let’s check out the new commercial district first."
"Woo!"
Nearby, Ouyang Xuan handed them a stack of black cards.
"Bro Luo, these are [Spirit Energy Cards] Li Mingyuan developed based on this realm’s rules."
"They convert assets from our old world into equivalent Spirit Energy for spending."
"It’s a currency system unique to our Holy Domain."
"There are many more functions and areas that we will work quickly to unlock. The Sacred Domain... is dozens of times larger than the world we were in before!"
Qin Luo picked up the black card and looked at the other person, saying, "Not bad, Xuan. I hereby appoint you as the Chief Steward of the Sacred Domain."
"Thank you, Luo... Huh...?"
Ouyang Xuan was about to express his gratitude but couldn't shake the feeling that the title sounded a bit odd.
When he looked up, Qin Luo and Su Muwan had already vanished without a trace.
ut it can buy an entire year of absolutely perfect training results! Su Yu stared at his empty wallet and decisively opened up various online loan platforms. “Borrow a thousand bucks! Recharge my vitality!” Boom! His vitality broke a hundred points, shattering the limits of the human body! “Borrow ten thousand bucks! Recharge my combat skills!” Boom! A basic punching technique so common it was everywhere instantly maxed out, revealing the ultimate assassination technique of Five Elements Unity—Inner Force! When a rich kid hired assassins for a midnight ambush, aiming to break both of his legs, they instead ran headfirst into a monster—a human-shaped tyrannosaur, brimming with dragon-like vitality. With just two fingers, Su Yu snapped a steel staff reinforced with alloy. Staring at the killer’s stash of stolen cash—a staggering quarter-million dollars—he showed a corporate-sincere smile: “Thanks for the pre-exam gift pack, Mr. Zhao! I’m gonna go re-invest this!” Three days later, at the National Martial Arts College Entrance Exam, while everyone else struggled just to reach the passing line, Su Yu threw a single punch—and more than a thousand vitality points literally detonated the entire arena!
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.
d intelligence to keep the plot moving, and sometimes even the protagonists are forced into absurdly dumb decisions. Why does the A-list celebrity heroine in urban romance novels ditch the top-tier movie star and become a lovestruck fool for a pockmarked male lead? Why do the leads in historical tragedy novels keep dancing between love and death, only for the blind healer to end up suffering the most? And Gu Wei never expected that after finally landing a villain role to stir up trouble, she’d pick the wrong gender! No choice now—she’ll just have to crush the protagonists as a girl!
