What the hell?
Join our side?
An Yi's body trembled as he looked at Bai Xiu.
Sure enough, he hadn’t paid much attention before, but this guy’s Destiny Value had already risen from 95 to 100!
Yes! Yes! Yes!
An Yi was so excited he nearly smashed the button.
From now on, Bai Xiu was his sworn brother—no blood relation, but closer than family!
His own brothers were reliable. Once the Destiny Value hit the full 100, they were immediately recruited to his side.
Unlike a certain poker-faced guy who had been at max value since their first meeting but still refused to acknowledge him as the boss!
Ding! Main Quest [Defying Fate] completed 3/9, Evil Power Value +100! Reward obtained: [Asura Divinity Fragment 3/9]!
Ding! Child of Destiny [Bai Xiu] has joined your side, Evil Power Value +200! Reward obtained: [Thunder Spirit Vein]!
Three hundred Evil Power Value in one go!
Sweet!
An Yi had never been this rich in Evil Power Value before!
Next up, Shangguan Qianqian! They were practically an old married couple by now—shouldn’t be too hard to win her over.
Then there was that poker-faced bastard Lin Chen.
No way he couldn’t handle him!
After that, strike while the iron’s hot and recruit Chen Bing, that bespectacled guy too.
If everything went smoothly, that’d make 6/9. Though, there were still three others who hadn’t even shown their faces yet!
But they’d probably appear soon!
The mere thought of inheriting the Asura Divinity made An Yi’s face flush with excitement.
Once he returned to the Ancient Continent, he’d crush those trash from the Nine-Layered Heavenly Clan!
Ziyue gave him a weird look. "What’s wrong? Why so excited? Having a seizure?"
An Yi snapped out of it and ruffled her hair. "Didn’t I tell you to play mute? Stop talking nonsense."
"Stop messing with my hair!"
Ziyue quickly pressed down on her hat, afraid her cat ears would be exposed.
The men in this world seemed way too interested in them.
An Yi’s excitement cooled as he examined his rewards, curiosity piqued.
Thunder Spirit Vein?
He already had the Dark Spirit Vein and Fire Spirit Vein, didn’t he?
With that thought, he flicked his finger, and a blue arc of electricity shot out.
"Holy shit! It really is lightning!"
An Yi was stunned.
He’d thought dual Spirit Veins were already unheard of—who knew he could have three?
Did this mean he could eventually gather all nine elemental veins?
Damn, the System really is my godfather!
Still buzzing, he turned and saw Ziyue with her hair standing on end.
The electric arc had apparently zapped her, instantly making her black hair puff up and lift her hat.
"You… you did that on purpose!"
Ziyue’s delicate face was full of grievance, her eyes brimming with tears.
"Hey, hey, don’t cry! I’ll take you to the amusement park, treat you to a buffet—"
"Still crying? Fine, I won’t ask you to wear black stockings anymore!"
"Deal!"
The birthday banquet had been thrown into chaos by Hou Tianci, leaving the venue in disarray.
Waitstaff were busy cleaning up, but none of the guests had left. Instead, they’d moved to another area, waiting patiently.
Only an idiot would leave now!
The Asura Gate’s leader was here—what if they could curry favor?
Many were already racking their brains, wondering if they had any pretty nieces or granddaughters to offer.
Rumor had it that the Asura Gate’s leader was a notorious womanizer who couldn’t resist a pretty face.
If they could catch his eye, they’d be untouchable in Daxia.
Of course, all the old news about An Yi being lecherous, shameless, and despicable had mysteriously vanished from the Martial Alliance app.
Small publications knew better.
What if the Asura Gate’s leader found out and smashed their offices?
"Damn, Bai Xiu! You’ve reached the Transcendent Realm in just a few days?"
"What have you two been up to? Especially you, An Yi—lately, it’s all about you. Trying to take over the world or something?"
Qin Shan and Liu Dachao crowded around them, grinning without restraint.
Neither acted distant just because An Yi had become ridiculously powerful.
An Yi smirked. "You two got nothing better to do? Skipping school just to attend a birthday banquet in the capital?"
"School’s boring without you and Bai Xiu," Liu Dachao grumbled.
"All we see now are two gorillas in love. Gets old fast."
Qin Shan’s expression turned odd. "Wait, An Yi, you didn’t come to the capital for the Martial Assembly?"
"What Martial Assembly?"
An Yi looked genuinely puzzled.
"Here."
Bai Xiu pulled out an invitation from his pocket, emblazoned with the Law Enforcement Bureau’s golden insignia.
An Yi took it and skimmed the contents—an invitation for Asura Gate’s Bai Xiu to attend the Capital Martial Assembly.
Qin Shan and Liu Dachao produced theirs too, though their titles differed.
Qin Shan represented the Changbai Mountain Qin Family, while Liu Dachao stood for the Sichuan Liu Family.
An Yi’s eyebrow twitched.
What the hell?
Even the Asura Gate’s leader didn’t get one?
What was this about?
He read the invitation carefully but found nothing unusual.
"The Martial Assembly is a major event that hasn’t been held in years. Only influential figures receive invitations," Tang Qingqing explained as she approached.
Her Tang Family had also been invited.
"Such a hassle. The Law Enforcement Bureau’s involved, so we can’t skip it. My dad didn’t want to come, so he sent me instead," Liu Dachao sighed.
"Boring meetings aren’t my thing."
An Yi turned to Bai Xiu. "Where’s Grandma Bai? I need to talk to her."
"Inside," Bai Xiu said simply.
In the villa’s main hall, the elderly matriarch seemed uneasy around An Yi.
Ever since learning he was ranked 19th on the Heavenly Leaderboard, she’d been acting stiff.
19th on the Heavenly Leaderboard!
To her, that was an unreachable height.
"Lord Night Emperor, may I ask why you sought me out—"
An Yi quickly waved his hands. "Grandma Bai, just call me An Yi. Bai Xiu and I are brothers."
"Ah, of course."
She relaxed slightly.
An Yi spoke carefully. "Grandma Bai, I’ve heard you were once Daxia’s renowned ‘Divine Physician.’ I came to ask about an illness."
"Divine Physician?" Bai Xiu blinked.
He had no idea about this.
In his memory, his grandmother had never displayed any medical expertise—just a kind old lady.
The matriarch smiled faintly. "The title ‘Divine Physician’… it’s been so long since anyone called me that. What illness do you wish to inquire about?"
"Yin Spirit Vein," An Yi said quietly.
Rumors claimed Bai Chenxiang’s medical skills bordered on the miraculous.
If anyone could cure it, it had to be her.
But the moment the words left his mouth, the old woman’s face paled.
"Y-Yin Spirit Vein? Why do you ask about that?!"
Her voice trembled.
saw a female celebrity tied up and stuffed in the trunk! Little did he know, countless cameras were aimed at him at this moment - this was a new type of reality show. 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!"
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.
s + Rent Collection Wealth】 At the start, he inherited a rundown house in the urban village from his grandfather. The house had no tenants, but the moment he was diagnosed with a terminal illness, a self-proclaimed empress from the Tianxuan Continent arrived as his first tenant. Ye Chuan soon discovered that with every new tenant moving in, not only did he receive massive daily payments, but he also obtained unique items related to their backgrounds. 【Acquired Bai Qianshuang’s related item: Tiger Strength Pill—dramatically enhances physical power!】 【Acquired Bai Qianshuang’s related item: Deer Blood Pill—significantly boosts vitality!】 …… From that day on, all sorts of bizarre tenants began appearing in the house: the empress from Tianxuan Continent, an apocalyptic sorceress from the Magic Realm, a mysterious scientific girl who fell through a spacetime rift… Every single day, he received strange, powerful items and endless money. Then one day, he suddenly realized—he had become invincible. Enough, enough! Stop giving me more!
nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
