The appearance of An Yi undoubtedly shocked everyone in the Heavenly Palace.
A minotaur!
They had never imagined that the bull-headed monster from childhood bedtime stories actually existed.
It's so damn terrifying!
Following behind An Yi were several people.
Gu Changfeng, Tu Langlang, Hua Fengyu, Han Liang, and a newly recruited subordinate, Via from the Ghost Hand clan.
Upon hearing An Yi say he wanted to raise pigs in the Heavenly Palace.
The bootlicker Han Liang hurried forward to flatter him: "Boss, you're brilliant! Raising pigs in the Heavenly Palace is truly a masterstroke! Look at this place, with its beautiful mountains and clear waters, outstanding people and prosperous land, lush vegetation—it's perfect for raising pigs! They'll surely grow fat and strong!"
An Yi laughed heartily, patting his shoulder: "Good, good! Once I become the Heavenly Palace Mistress's man, I'll appoint you as a Protector! This land will be yours too, dedicated to pig farming!"
Mi Huan: "..."
Wang Jiudong: "..."
Han Liang beamed with joy upon hearing this: "Thank you, Boss!"
The onlookers' fury was instantly ignited.
Wanting to raise pigs in the Heavenly Palace! This minotaur is asking for a beating, isn't he?
Let's see how he dies later!
Everyone was furious.
If this vulgar, ugly fellow really became the Heavenly Palace Mistress's husband, wouldn't that mean his status would be second only to one, above ten thousand others?!
Then all of them would have to obey this minotaur's orders?!
Follow this idiot in raising pigs in the Heavenly Palace!
Just thinking about it felt suffocating!
Wang Jiudong inwardly sighed, sensing trouble.
The existence of such a character undoubtedly brought shame upon the Heavenly Palace Mistress!
Xing Yunhai, however, revealed a smile.
This minotaur was simply a stroke of genius.
Unrivaled at being annoying!
He reckoned that woman Murong Qinghong's lungs must be about to explode with rage right now.
Moreover, among the minotaur's subordinates, there seemed to be a young man who was Hua Fengyu.
On the other side, Lin Chen finally appeared as well.
He was relatively low-key, without a large entourage of followers. Only Ning Er was with him, carrying a large blade majestically behind him.
"Second Brother!"
When Tu Langlang saw Ning Er, his jaw nearly dropped in shock.
So that's why Ning Er had been missing for so many days!
"Langlang! You sissy, you all..."
Ning Er, looking at Tu Langlang and the others opposite him, was also stunned, his eyes wide.
His intelligence was exceptional; his mind raced, and he instantly understood something.
These guys...
Had betrayed them!
At this thought, Ning Er was so angry he felt his lungs would explode.
He slapped his chest and solemnly promised Lin Chen: "Boss, don't worry. Even if the whole world betrays you, I will always stand behind you, supporting you!"
Lin Chen's face darkened, and his hand once again reached for the Lieyun Tonfas at his waist.
Heaven knows how many times these past days he had wanted to beat this idiot to death!
"Why is this fool with Lin Chen?"
An Yi raised an eyebrow, asking Tu Langlang.
Tu Langlang quickly said: "Boss, Second Brother isn't that kind of person. You must believe in his character!"
After pondering, Gu Changfeng slowly said: "He couldn't have mistaken his identity, could he?"
Hua Fengyu shook his head: "Impossible. If he could mistake that, does he have a pig's brain on his shoulders?"
Gu Changfeng nodded slightly, agreeing.
On the other side, Han Liang was dumbfounded.
The God of Death, Lin Chen?!
Others might not know, but Han Liang, who came from the mortal world, knew!
The second-in-command of the Asura Sect!
What on earth was going on? Were the two of them fighting for nothing?
Inside the hall.
The melons, fruits, and wine on the table were spilled all over the floor—a complete mess!
Murong Qinghong's eyes were icy, her hair disheveled, exuding a chilling killing intent.
Xu Kang stood respectfully with a bowed posture, trembling slightly.
"What happened? Last night I told you to assassinate that minotaur. Why did he arrive here safe and sound?!"
Murong Qinghong screamed angrily: "Now the entire Heavenly Palace is watching me become a laughingstock!"
Xu Kang said bitterly: "The seventy assassins dispatched last night were all killed, including the deputy commander of the Golden Armor Guards."
Hearing this, Murong Qinghong's eyes turned cold.
Seventy Golden Armor Guards, all at the Void Force realm—how could it be easy to take them all down?
She had intended to eliminate the minotaur last night to solve the problem once and for all. Who would have thought someone would interfere!
Xu Kang said gravely: "The ones who acted were not the Minotaur Chen, but another group!"
"You mean, someone is secretly protecting Minotaur Chen?"
Murong Qinghong's eyes were icy, her entire body trembling with anger.
"The Hua family?
Or perhaps it's Mi Huan and those other troublemakers!"
Xu Kang sighed: "Palace Mistress, all the esteemed members of the Heavenly Palace are waiting. Please go out. At present, the only plan is to trust Lin Chen."
Remembering Lin Chen, a glimmer of confidence returned to Murong Qinghong's eyes.
Just based on Lin Chen's performance when he killed the Black Rhinoceros.
How could that blustering minotaur possibly win!
Under the gaze of the multitude.
Murong Qinghong, in a golden phoenix and rosy clouds gown, slowly made her entrance.
"Welcome, Palace Mistress!"
Overwhelming voices resounded!
After Murong Qinghong appeared, everyone in the Heavenly Palace bowed in salute.
Murong Qinghong nodded slightly in acknowledgment, displaying the nobility and elegance of the Heavenly Palace Mistress to the fullest.
"Lin Chen, Minotaur Chen!"
Murong Qinghong's red lips parted slightly.
Upon hearing this, both men stepped forward simultaneously, entering the martial arena.
An Yi still had his usual sloppy demeanor, though his transformed minotaur appearance looked somewhat bizarre.
As for the outcome, victory was already firmly in hand.
Lin Chen, Poker Face!
He was his own subordinate, one of his people!
Murong Qinghong slowly announced: "Begin!"
This martial arena was more than five times larger than the training ground's platform; it was originally a military drill field.
The space for maneuvering was astonishingly large, and there was no fear of causing damage.
An Yi drew the demon sword Dragon Fang. His tall figure made it look like he was holding a fruit knife.
However, his appearance was merely a transformation and did not affect his actual movements.
Lin Chen took out his Lieyun Twin Tonfas, twirling them.
Then, his eyes sharpened, and he suddenly charged forward!
Whoosh!
Lin Chen, who initiated the attack first, erupted with a cyan light!
"Excellent!"
Wang Jiudong's eyes shone with admiration as he praised.
Such speed—even he felt inferior in comparison!
On this side, An Yi's reaction was not slow either. Wielding the demon sword Dragon Fang, he steadily blocked the attack.
Sparks flew!
The intense collision triggered a sonic boom that echoed thunderously!
Mi Huan frowned: "This minotaur doesn't seem weak either!"
Lin Chen stared coldly at An Yi: "Minotaur Chen?"
Being from the mortal world, did he think he didn't know what 'minotaur' meant?
This bastard!
Who knows what he had been doing in his name while he was away!
An Yi felt awkward and quickly said: "A name is just a label. I made it up randomly; don't mind such trivial matters."
Clang!
The Lieyun Tonfas in Lin Chen's hands swiftly struck out, attacking as fast as lightning.
"Poker Face, when you lose later, act convincingly!"
An Yi hurriedly blocked Lin Chen's attacks, lowering his voice to say.
"Act?"
Lin Chen held the Lieyun Tonfas and said calmly: "Sorry, I don't know how."
An Yi's expression turned grave, faintly sensing the combat aura emanating from Poker Face.
Something's off about this guy!
His fighting spirit is really strong!
"The two of us have never really had a proper fight, have we? Aren't you curious about who's stronger?" Lin Chen said leisurely.
An Yi seemed to understand his meaning and declared arrogantly: "I'm the Boss, so of course it's me!"
Rarely, the corner of Lin Chen's mouth lifted slightly: "No turning into the white-haired form!"
An Yi grinned, showing his teeth: "Then you can't use the Seven Kill Fists either!"
grated, and just when he finally managed to get into an elite academy, he discovered that he actually had a system, and the way to earn rewards was extremely ridiculous. So for the sake of rewards, he had no choice but to start acting ridiculous as well. Su Cheng: "It's nothing but system quests after all." But later, what confused Su Cheng was that while he was already quite ridiculous, he never expected those serious characters to gradually become ridiculous too. And the way they looked at him became increasingly strange... (This synopsis doesn't do it justice, please read the full story)
iemie, male, Race: Moon. Hobby: Collecting anomalies. At first, he thought he possessed two systems: the Crimson Rainbow Moon and the Clear Cold Frost Moon. One day, he discovered that he himself could also become a system for others, holding the chessboard of fate. The Eighth Epoch, also known as the Eternal Moon Epoch. Humans, witches, elves, bloodline descendants, specters, demons, and spirits together compose a new history. Walking the path on behalf of the moon, before he knew it, Chen Miemie's footsteps were followed by all manner of strange and wondrous anomalies.

I'm just a traveler who enjoys collecting interesting creatures," Chen Miemie said.
young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
lan, the Luo family, tracked him down - along with the babies in their arms. Mo Xuan stared pensively at the paternity test results from over a dozen top institutions, both domestic and international, showing a 99.99% match between himself and the two baby girls. At 23, Mo Xuan, a doctoral student, had become the father of two three-year-old children. The kicker? The mothers weren't even the same person! He gradually realized he was being lured step by step into an elaborate trap designed by these two yandere sisters. "Be good, little Xuan. Sister's life belongs to you entirely." "Brother, if you try to run away, I'll have no choice but to tie you up." Mo Xuan: "Do whatever you want, ladies. I give up."
