"So, you're really set on this? The salary for a tutor at East Mystery Academy isn't that high—only ten gold coins a month."
Old Tao licked his lips, asking with some uncertainty.
After all, this guy had just raked in... ahem, collected a hundred thousand gold coins in protection fees from Qi Hong.
A monthly salary of ten gold coins really didn't seem worth his attention.
An Yi waved his hand dismissively, his expression serious: "In life, a man can't always chase after money. Otherwise, this life would be so boring and vulgar. As for me, I have no interest in money."
For a moment, Old Tao was deeply moved, and felt immensely ashamed of his earlier low and rigid impression of An Yi.
He seemed to sense a glow of humanity radiating from An Yi.
Money or not, An Yi couldn't care less.
After all, he was now the big boss of two giant corporations, An Company and Yilan Media, with plenty of cash in his card.
Otherwise, would he casually throw around something as lavish as a Berserk Mode?
Glancing at the balance in his system account, An Yi's expression suddenly turned strange.
"Damn system, what's going on? Why isn't my money increasing?"
An Yi was a bit dumbfounded.
He wasn't mistaken—the system's bank balance had stayed unchanged at his previous net worth of over twenty billion.
It had been two months now, and the amount at the end hadn't seemed to grow at all!
What about his stock dividends and such?
Before, those had been revenues in the hundreds of millions!
"Ding! System prompt: The ancient continent is currently unable to receive money from Blue Star!"
What the hell!
A vein popped on An Yi's forehead.
So, that meant when he used his money to recharge his lifespan or activate Berserk Mode, it was all one-way spending with no replenishment?
Damn it, he thought he had bottomless wealth and could just recklessly use Berserk Mode all the way!
"Damn system! You're limiting my strength—you're totally playing dirty, you know that!"
"Ding! It's the author who won't let you keep using Berserk Mode—has nothing to do with me..."
"..."
An Yi frowned in thought.
Although over twenty billion was no small sum, eating through it without any income wasn't sustainable!
"Ding! System prompt: Gold coins also have recharge functionality."
The system's mechanical voice rang out.
Ever since the guy had grown stronger, the system had lost its absolute authority and its tone was far less forceful than before.
An Yi mulled this over.
One copper coin equaled one yuan, one silver coin equaled ten yuan... accordingly, one gold coin equaled ten thousand.
The fifty thousand gold coins he'd gotten from the Xu family a few days ago, plus the hundred thousand he had now.
All together, that could be recharged for fifteen billion yuan!
An Yi silently mused—this was the faster way to make money.
Going to the East Mystery Academy was just a temporary plan.
As for his next direction, he hadn't figured it out yet.
Now, with the battle against the City Lord's Mansion, word would spread, gaining him some fame in Lingchuan Territory.
Let things unfold as they may.
First, let An Yi's reputation spread. If members of the Asura Gate heard about it, they would naturally gather and rally.
Moreover, the East Mystery Academy was one of the top academies in the ancient continent, with its headquarters in the Phoenix Empire and branches in many countries across the continent, making it a hub of information.
Using the academy's channels to find Lin Chen, Bai Xiu, and the others might be easier.
"Master, where are we going?"
Just then, Ye Tian caught up with An Yi and Old Tao.
An Yi looked at him, puzzled: "Where did you just disappear to?"
Ye Tian said seriously, "I just returned the engagement letter to the Xu family."
An Yi: "..."
Xu Chun's daughter had just died, and right after that, this guy went to return the engagement letter.
Rubbing salt in the wound, huh!
Could it be that the recent rise in fate points was because of this?
"Let's go. I plan to head to East Mystery Academy. Right now, my position is a tutor there."
An Yi said with a faint smile.
It was as if this identity brought him some glimmer of noble humanity.
Ye Tian was taken aback.
This guy becoming a tutor... wasn't he just waiting to cause trouble for those poor kids? They were still just children!
"Then, I..."
Ye Tian thought of the red-dressed woman's words and hesitated.
Old Tao said warmly, "No worries. I'll approve your enrollment as a student right now."
At the present, Ye Tian's soul-inhabited body was just eighteen, still within the academy's enrollment range.
A tutor with peak Heavenly Coil strength, plus a student at the early Spirit Origin stage—this trip was truly a huge gain!
At that thought, Old Tao's face lit up with joy.
He felt that An Yi was truly his lucky star, not only curing a serious illness from years ago and restoring his peak strength, but also bringing a subordinate to join East Mystery Academy.
This way, their branch of East Mystery Academy would have two top-tier spirit masters!
Ye Tian looked hesitant.
He wanted to avenge the Ye family, but against the vast Divine Teach, his strength was far too weak.
East Mystery Academy was rich in resources and relatively safe—it was indeed a good place. But...
Gazing at An Yi's back, Ye Tian's face grew solemn.
The red-dressed woman had once told him.
His luck was exceptionally strong, but An Yi's luck was even more terrifying, completely overpowering his.
If he continued to stay by An Yi's side, his luck would keep being affected.
Thinking back on it now, ever since his soul transmigrated into Ye Tian's body and merged with Ye Tian's soul, it had been one misfortune after another.
Right from the start, he was beaten up by Pockmark Wang, then somehow or other he signed a slave contract, and now when he came to seek refuge with his fiancée, not only was he jilted, but his fiancée ended up dead as well.
It seemed like there had never really been any glorious moments for him.
All the limelight had been stolen by that guy An Yi.
At this thought, Ye Tian gave a helpless, soft laugh and then hurried after him.
But one thing he knew for sure—An Yi was genuinely good to him.
A true man gives his all for a friend who truly knows him!
And Ye Tian was not the kind of person to forget a favor.
……
The Southern Sea, the Star Net Sea Domain.
Unlike the Central Region, the Southern Sea was made up of countless islands, scattered like stars across the vast ocean.
At the northern end of the Star Net Sea Domain, on an island, lived an ancient ethnic group with a long history—the Moon Clan.
A bright moon hung high in the sky.
Deep in the dense forest, atop an altar, rows of flames illuminated the area as if it were broad daylight.
The members of the Moon Clan were gazing up at the altar.
Up there, a stunningly beautiful girl with painted colors on her face was dancing gracefully under the moonlight.
Her elegant and agile movements perfectly showcased her soft, youthful figure.
Every gesture and motion exuded the vitality of youth.
Below, every Moon Clan member had their hands clasped together, wearing devout expressions as they knelt in worship.
Lying on top of the altar was a young man, it was unclear whether he was alive or dead.
As the ritual dance came to an end, the girl's expression carried a hint of worry. She bit her lower lip lightly as she looked at the young man on the altar.
"Yue Ling, has the Divine Son not awoken yet?"
The sound of a cane tapping came closer.
An old woman with a weathered face and a stooped figure walked over slowly.
"Grandma!"
Yue Ling quickly went over to support the old woman, her eyes showing signs of distress: "No, the Divine Son has been asleep for two full months now."
This young man had suddenly appeared on the altar during a Moon Clan ritual at the time.
Back then, an unusual celestial phenomenon had occurred—a purple-blue thunderclap echoed through the sky, and countless Moon Clan members witnessed it, terrified out of their wits.
Then they saw this sleeping young man suddenly appear on the altar.
And it was his arrival that made the suffering Moon Clan feel as if they had finally seen a glimmer of hope!
lities. One day, Qi Yuan was buying groceries when he unfortunately came face-to-face with a monster. Just when he thought he was going to die on the spot, he suddenly heard the monster's thoughts... "This aura, he's definitely not an ordinary master!" "So terrifying, so terrifying." "A fight with my back against the wall, I can't take it anymore." Qi Yuan: Ah, no one told me that my awakened ability isn't telepathy, but rather the stronger my enemies imagine me to be, the stronger I truly become.

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.

for mindless slaughter, this isn't for you.] My name is Ye Shu, and I'm a transmigrator. It seems I'm supposed to be the protagonist, but that feels pretty unlikely. This world has been invaded by a system. The antagonists on the other side have suddenly become pure, flawless saints. The female leads have been force-fed the so-called "original plot," making them think they've been reborn. Now, everyone thinks I'm scum. Including the old lady in my ring. And here I am, in the Monster Beast Mountain Range, braising pork. To put my situation in perspective— It's as if, the moment Xiao Yan stepped into the Monster Beast Mountain Range, the Soul Emperor already knew he would become the Flame Emperor, and Yao Lao had been turned to the enemy's side. I have nothing right now. Oh wait, that's not true. I do have a white-haired loli child-bride who's the Heavenly Dao, and her only skill is acting cute. So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?
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.
