No way, officer!
An Yi still hadn't fully processed what had just happened. Feeling the lingering warmth on his lips, he asked in confusion, "Was that your first kiss?"
"Impossible!"
Hearing An Yi's question, Yan Zhi stiffened slightly before forcing a dismissive tone. "Pfft, little guy, I've eaten more salt than you've eaten rice."
"Then drink more hot water—don't choke on it," An Yi retorted with the universal formula.
To be honest, the woman's kiss had been clumsy.
No doubt about it—it was her first.
But he didn’t dare say it out loud.
Yan Zhi faced the evening breeze and said seriously, "Don’t overthink it. It’s just a kiss. These days, kissing doesn’t necessarily mean liking someone. I’m sure you know that. It’s just—"
"I really don’t care," An Yi shrugged.
After all, he wasn’t the one at a disadvantage.
Yan Zhi snorted. "Good."
"When will Chi Xiao show up?"
An Yi’s gaze turned sharp as he asked.
"Patience. It shouldn’t be long now," Yan Zhi replied solemnly. "But there’s another problem—this ship isn’t just carrying Chi Xiao. I’ve already spotted people from other organizations."
An Yi took a sip of juice he’d somehow procured, a faint smirk playing on his lips.
He’d noticed them too.
"Hello, beautiful lady. Love at first sight—your beauty has captivated me. May I have this dance?"
Xu Chao suppressed his excitement, adopting an elegant posture as he spoke in fluent English.
Fortune hadn’t abandoned him!
Tonight, one stunning girl after another kept appearing.
His years studying abroad had given him a polished English accent, something he took great pride in.
He was confident his charm and wit would win over the blonde beauty before him.
Yes, this time his target was a foreign woman.
Her golden hair, delicate yet striking features—even by Daxia’s beauty standards, she was breathtaking.
A tight white lace dress hugged her curves, making her look like an angel straight out of Western mythology—pure and enchanting.
The girl offered an apologetic smile and replied in broken Daxia language, "Sorry, I don’t really understand what you’re saying."
Xu Chao’s face twitched. All that fluent English—wasted.
"Ahem. May I have this dance?" he coughed and asked again.
The blonde girl smiled sweetly. "Sure, but I have a boyfriend."
"Another one?!"
Xu Chao had a sinking feeling.
Then, the blonde girl dragged An Yi out from behind the crowd, where he’d been sipping his drink and enjoying the night view.
"Him! He’s the one!" she declared, clinging to An Yi’s arm.
Xu Chao was stunned.
He’d met scoundrels before, but never one this outrageous!
Three girls in one night?!
Including an international beauty?!
And each one a knockout?!
Xu Chao was furious. "You again?! Enough already!"
An Yi shrugged. "Honestly, I have no idea either!"
He was just as baffled about why this blonde had chosen him as her shield.
Truth be told, he’d been watching her for a while.
Not because she was pretty!
But because of that lace dress—ahem, because of the terrifying aura she carried.
She was no ordinary person.
If measured by Daxia’s martial arts standards, she was likely at the Void Realm!
"Darling, you’re here!"
The blonde girl suddenly leaned in, planting a light kiss on An Yi’s cheek with a sweet, delighted smile.
An Yi’s face went blank.
Ding! [Rogue Master] mission completed. No repeats allowed!
The system’s reminder chimed.
An Yi: "..."
Xu Chao, boiling with rage, turned and stormed off again.
"Screw this party! I’m out!"
"May I have this dance?" the blonde girl asked, extending her hand.
An Yi smiled. "With pleasure."
The ship’s grand hall filled with the elegant strains of live orchestral music, instantly elevating the atmosphere.
On the dance floor, An Yi held the blonde girl’s slender waist, moving to the rhythm—while stepping on her dainty feet.
"Sorry."
"Sorry."
After the fifth misstep, the blonde girl managed a strained smile. "It’s fine, darling. Take your time."
"Who are you, really?"
An Yi gripped her hand, his gaze intense as he studied her.
The blonde girl blinked playfully. "Katies!"
"That’s not what I meant," An Yi said flatly.
"Sky Knight Katies of the Templar Order!"
She announced her affiliation, pride flashing across her delicate features.
As the youngest Sky Knight in the Templar Order’s history, she had every right to be proud.
An Yi feigned surprise.
He’d never heard of it.
But he figured looking impressed would spare her feelings.
"You—strong. I—want to team up!"
Katies gave him a thumbs-up, mixing gestures with broken speech to get her point across.
"Not interested."
An Yi refused outright.
"The Hundred Ghosts want you dead. We can help you against them. They’re far stronger than you think," Katies said seriously.
An Yi nodded. "Welcome aboard."
Katies: "..."
As the performance ended, the spotlight shifted.
A slick, pudgy man in an ostentatious suit took the central stage.
"Ladies and gentlemen, the moment you’ve all been waiting for is here. I’m sure this is why you’re all gathered tonight—"
The man hyped up the crowd, microphone in hand.
The audience erupted: "Quit stalling and get on with it!"
"Patience, folks. The show’s about to start!"
The man grinned, his blue eyes glinting with an almost inhuman light.
Then, a covered cart was wheeled out, draped in red cloth.
All eyes locked onto it.
"Rest assured, our merchandise is top quality," the man said, yanking off the cloth.
Inside the cage was a girl.
Or rather, a half-beast, half-human girl.
Cat ears, a tail—but otherwise entirely human in appearance.
Her sheer dress clung to her alluring figure, her wrists bound in cuffs—only amplifying the urge to protect her.
"Holy crap! A real catgirl?!"
"Those ears! So damn cute!"
The moment the cage was revealed, the entire hall erupted.
An Yi’s eyes narrowed.
A shapeshifting demon beast?!
This defied everything he knew.
The girl was only a Tier 2 demon beast!
In the Ancient Continent, only Tier 4 and above could assume human form!
"This, my friends, is tonight’s star attraction—starting at 100 million! Any takers?"
The man grinned.
Wealthy men loved the exotic, and a shapeshifting beast was irresistible to most.
At the edge of the hall, Red Poison’s gaze locked onto the cage—then spotted An Yi. A cold smile curled his lips. "Boss Butcher, look—it’s An Yi!"
Butcher, his face scarred from explosives, snapped his eyes open at the name, murderous intent blazing.

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."

Explosive Plot Song Gua crossed over into another world, bringing along a whole crew of his doppelgangers—all of them mischief-makers. This was a world where everyone could choose a class. Song Gua became a "Bondweaver," capable of borrowing power, while his doppelgangers took on a wide variety of classes, covering just about everything. The number of doppelgangers grew day by day, each one a talented individual with a charming way of speaking. Under Song Gua's brilliant leadership, they would "greet" each other daily and engage in friendly "sparring," pulling off one major scheme after another on Earth. Sometimes they were bandits—stealing bosses, plundering mines, snatching resources. Sometimes they were saviors—descending like divine warriors to face world bosses threatening to massacre cities. Sometimes they even went undercover, infiltrating various major factions to stir up trouble from within, keeping their enemies constantly on edge. To prevent their doppelganger abilities from being exposed, Song Gua made them wear masks with mahjong tile patterns and don Taoist robes in various colors. "Remember, in front of outsiders, call me 'The Dice.'" "Got it! Boss!" "Not 'Boss'—it's 'The Dice.' Think about the vibe, pay attention to the vibe." "Yes! Boss!" "For crying out loud..." From then on, whenever they appeared, they would have their own theme song playing: ~Hey~ paying respects at the mountain stronghold at night~ whose arm is draped over whose shoulder~ gather your courage and follow along...
