“Junior Brother Lu, why are there only two of them coming over… and what does it mean that one is staying far away on the Blue Hall platform, just watching?”
Following Lu Ze’s line of sight, Zhou Yue couldn’t help but ask curiously.
Lu Ze stood at one end of the bridge, with two members of [Last Dusk] at the other end, while another carrying [Death] watched from a great distance.
“Hmm… something’s wrong.”
Lu Ze muttered as he jabbed needles into his body, pondering the opponents’ intentions.
Although their cheats were crude and nothing to fear,
this was still the world of immortal cultivation. Assuming things based on ordinary cheats would be far too naive.
Lu Ze guessed they were charging up some big move.
“Better hurry… if he actually gets that going, it’ll be trouble.”
He downed a pain-relief pill, then burst forward toward the exit of his cover.
“Bang—!”
A golden spirit bullet grazed the edge of an iron crate, nearly hitting Lu Ze’s scalp.
“Oh?”
Lu Ze raised an eyebrow.
Compared to the last round, the timing of their shots had become sharper.
That meant…
their reaction speed had increased.
Too bad for them, his own movement timing was even more precise.
“Looks like I was right… their cheat has been upgraded.”
Lu Ze nodded thoughtfully, then curled his lips into a smirk.
“Alright then, let’s play.”
…
In the Spirit Cloud Sect’s viewing area.
“With Junior Brother Lu on Red Wolf, it’s a different story—the movement master is back in action!”
“I slide out, I dash back, now I jump—ha~ just messing with them~”
“Can’t hit me, huh? Hehe~”
Zhong Yi was watching from [Black Serpent]’s perspective, commentating with great amusement.
Lu Ze’s perspective when he was serious was too dizzying—if you watched too long, you’d get motion sickness, so switching to the enemy’s view was a relief.
Originally, his flashy feinting and shot-baiting movements were already enough to dazzle.
Now that he’d chosen Red Wolf—agile and capable of slides—it was even more exaggerated.
From [Black Serpent]’s view, Lu Ze darted back and forth behind the iron crates, never fully exposing himself, yet still applying constant pressure.
No one knew if the next move would be another feint or a real jump-out to take the shot.
In spectator mode, everyone’s positions were visible, and Zhong Yi grew more suspicious.
“That’s strange…”
“Why is [Black Serpent]’s crosshair following Junior Brother Lu’s chest through the wall??”
…
…
“Boss, you said after lighting the ninth spirit lamp, you could see the trajectory of the future. Why did I miss two shots in a row?!”
After missing another sniper spirit bullet, [Setting Sun] was baffled.
“Your skill isn’t refined enough—your vision isn’t accurate yet!”
[Dusk] snorted coldly, his gaze fixed firmly on Lu Ze.
“Hold on a little longer… I’ll have him fully read in a moment!”
“…Understood.”
[Black Serpent] gritted his teeth, forcing down the urge to charge out.
Last round, he’d been killed by Lu Ze in a humiliating way. Now, emboldened by the ninth lamp, his confidence had soared. If [Dusk] hadn’t held him back, he’d have rushed out for revenge.
Lu Ze kept weaving behind the iron crate, buzzing around like a fly, irritating them.
“Heh, this time, we won’t give him a chance to pick us off one by one… With two firing lines locked on, he can’t break through!”
[Setting Sun] sneered.
“Let him dance around behind that crate. Soon enough, we’ll see who the fool is.”
…
Meanwhile.
On the other side of the bridge.
“I’ve been acting this whole time. They must have seen it all by now, right?”
Lu Ze yawned.
He hadn’t attacked yet not because he lacked a way to win,
but because he wanted the audience to get a good look at [Last Dusk]’s perspective.
With other operators, it might not have been as obvious,
but as Red Wolf, with all his flashy slides and jumps, the enemies’ crosshairs locked onto him—it couldn’t be more blatant.
Figuring enough time had passed, Lu Ze pulled out his hand cannon and casually aimed at an angle.
Three fireballs, slightly offset from one another, flew straight toward the right.
The next moment,
he crushed a golden rose in his hand.
“Bloom!”
…
“Damn! Those fireballs are insane—they blocked me off completely! Old Black, hold the line! Don’t let him break through!”
[Setting Sun] roared, quickly retreating down from the bridge.
Lu Ze’s three fireballs hit at a tricky angle, landing at his feet and sealing all his footholds on the bridge, forcing him down.
“Screw it—let him come!”
[Black Serpent] flared up and crushed a golden rose of his own.
Both were Red Wolf—who’s afraid of who?
As the human-shaped silhouette was about to burst out of cover, [Black Serpent] focused every ounce of attention and pulled the trigger the instant it emerged.
This time, Lu Ze really did come out—half his body exposed.
But before a second passed, he slid back behind the iron crate.
Five spirit bullets flew out, and [Black Serpent] heard a hit confirmation, but with Lu Ze’s six-armor, it did no real damage.
“Hit him!”
Even so, it was enough for a fleeting moment of excitement.
It meant his eyes could finally keep up with Lu Ze’s movements!
But the joy lasted less than a second.
The Red Wolf, who had just slid back into cover, leaped out again instantly.
“How is that…”
[Black Serpent]’s mind blanked for a second.
He never dreamed that Lu Ze could dart in and out three times in the blink of an eye.
Mid-air, Lu Ze had already switched to [Death].
A crimson spirit bullet, like a summons from the King of Hell, roared out of the barrel…
…
In the Spirit Cloud Sect’s viewing area.
“Brilliant! Absolutely brilliant!”
“Junior Brother Lu’s repeated slides earlier made [Last Dusk]’s two guys get used to his rhythm…”
“Then he suddenly changed tempo—sliding back and jumping out in a surprise move!”
“Whoa!! In mid-air, he aimed instantly, a straight shot with [Death] that took out [Setting Sun]!!!”
“Sick! So sick!”
Zhong Yi was mediocre at playing, but as a spectator, his reactions were quick.
The moment Lu Ze fired the fireballs and activated his ultimate, he switched his view back to Lu Ze and caught it perfectly.
The Spirit Cloud Sect disciples erupted in cheers and applause.
“Nice shot!”
“As expected of True Disciple Lu—so satisfying!”
“You called him the Old Demon Lu yesterday…”
“Damn! Those two are clearly cheating, right? Their crosshair followed True Disciple Lu’s chest through the iron crate…”
“Now that you mention it, their earlier rounds—tracking them from thousands of miles away—was way too suspicious.”
“Are they really up to something?”

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.

He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples.
