"Zhao Yide! Why did you call them here?"
Lin Tianlu pointed at Zhao Yide and shouted coldly.
"I just wanted to see if they were filial. I must say, your daughter is quite good. She rushed back in just two hours late at night after receiving my call."
Zhao Yide shook his head with a smile.
Lin Qianzhu suddenly glared at Zhao Yide, "You lied to me! My father is perfectly fine!"
"Correct, but he won't be for long."
As Zhao Yide spoke, a figure in a black robe appeared behind him.
"Zhao Yide! What are you trying to do?"
Lin Tianlu demanded.
"At this point, what do you think I'm trying to do? The bystanders have already been driven away by me. Only you few remain here, and the rest are all my people."
Zhao Yide looked at Lin Tianlu and said, "Sect Master, haven't you realized that our Tianjian Sect has been looked down upon everywhere these years? The root cause is you!"
"In other sects, the strong rule. But you, about to enter your coffin, still stubbornly refuse to step down."
Zhao Yide continued, "It's time for you to relinquish your position as Sect Master."
"Zhao Yide! You're insane!"
Huang Min shouted coldly, then looked at the man beside her, "Brother Kong, let's join forces and kill this bastard!"
"Do you think I would do something like this without any preparation?"
Zhao Yide shrugged, "Mr. Liu, show them."
Boom!
The black-robed man behind him suddenly erupted with Qi, his entire body enveloped by it.
Clearly, this black-robed man was another Grandmaster realm expert.
Everyone present was stunned.
Everyone knew that within the current Tianjian Sect, Zhao Yide was the strongest.
The only reason he hadn't dared to act too recklessly was because Huang Min and Kong Liuke joining forces could handle him.
But now, with another Grandmaster realm expert by Zhao Yide's side, the balance of power was broken.
"Kong Liuke, originally my plan was to kill you. We are both at the late Grandmaster stage, the Strong Meridian level."
Zhao Yide looked at Kong Liuke, "After you die, Lin Tianlu is dried up and exhausted. Huang Min has just reached the mid-Grandmaster stage, the Tempering Bone level. I could wear her down bit by bit."
It must be known, although both Zhao Yide and Kong Liuke were at the late Grandmaster stage, Zhao Yide had entered it earlier and was now nearing the peak of the Strong Meridian level, making him naturally stronger than Kong Liuke.
However, within the same realm, the gap wasn't that pronounced.
"I understand. You're afraid of my master, Ding Yuan!"
Kong Liuke sneered.
"Correct. If Ding Yuan weren't dead, my plan would fail. I had to strike first."
Zhao Yide nodded slightly, "Lin Tianlu, hand over the two Earth-grade techniques and the secret realm passed down from our sect's ancestors to me."
"You already possess the Earth-grade technique from Green Wood Mountain. Why do you need more?"
Lin Tianlu asked calmly.
"I can let others learn them."
Zhao Yide raised his hand, "As long as you give me the cultivation methods, I will spare your son and daughter. Their standing in your heart should be quite high, right?"
He knew that Lin Tianlu had been guarding against him, which is why he had entrusted these two to Kong Liuke and Huang Min respectively.
He himself could only pick a descendant with trash-tier talent.
However, he didn't mind. Although the talent was lacking, this descendant was obedient.
In the future, elevating him to the Sect Master position would be equivalent to Zhao Yide controlling the sect himself.
"What about us?"
Lin Tianlu asked faintly.
"You, of course, must die."
Zhao Yide's expression remained calm, "Hand over the two Earth-grade techniques, and I'll let Lin Qianzhu go. Hand over the secret realm location, and I'll spare Lin Jitao. I'll give you only ten seconds to consider."
Time passed second by second.
Suddenly, Kong Liuke and Huang Min exchanged a glance and immediately charged towards Zhao Yide.
"You two, run!"
Lin Tianlu shouted to his children and to Dai Xingluo.
"Run? I'll kill you first!"
The black-robed man behind them swiftly darted towards the group.
At that moment, Lin Tianlu forcibly activated the Qi energy within his body and struck out with a palm.
Whoosh!
A giant red palm imprint shot towards the black-robed man.
But after that one strike, he began gasping violently.
Swish!
The black-robed man didn't clash head-on with Lin Tianlu but chose to dodge, then charged towards Lin Qianzhu.
Lin Qianzhu immediately slashed out a sword Qi.
But the sword Qi had just flown out when it was completely crushed by the black-robed man's grip.
Just as he was about to reach Lin Qianzhu, Dai Xingluo beside her swiftly swung her long sword, unleashing the Fire Phoenix Sword technique.
Boom!
A flaming phoenix shot towards the black-robed man.
Seeing this, Lin Qianzhu was completely stunned. This technique had been lost for ages.
As the senior sister of Flaming Sun Mountain, she herself didn't know the Fire Phoenix Sword. How could this Dai Xingluo use it?
Lin Qianzhu knew of Dai Xingluo. This woman was called the number one beauty among the outer disciples.
People often compared her to Dai Xingluo.
However, Lin Qianzhu had never paid Dai Xingluo any mind—just a mere outer disciple.
Boom!
The Grandmaster realm expert erupted with power, shattering the flaming phoenix with a single punch.
He paid no attention to Dai Xingluo. His primary objective was to capture Lin Qianzhu to force Lin Tianlu to hand over the techniques.
That was the purpose of his mission here—a full two Earth-grade techniques.
If he learned them, his strength would advance by a large margin.
Seeing this, Dai Xingluo quickly moved in front of the black-robed man and thrust her sword with force.
"Ant!"
The black-robed man had just raised his hand when he noticed a golden light flashing on Dai Xingluo's sword.
His vision turned completely white, he couldn't see a thing.
He didn't wait idly but rapidly retreated.
This was one of the three Mystic-grade techniques Xu Mu had given Dai Xingluo back at the Jiuli Clan tomb, called the Golden Light Sword.
This technique was like a flash grenade, capable of temporarily blinding someone.
However, it only worked if one was looking directly at the sword.
If Dai Xingluo herself looked at the sword, she would also be blinded.
But that was the advantage of information asymmetry. Generally, when a sword was thrust, anyone would look at it.
"Go!"
Dai Xingluo grabbed Lin Qianzhu's shoulder and ran towards the outside.
Lin Jitao, meanwhile, rushed over crying and picked up Lin Tianlu, "Father! I won't leave you!"
"You bitch! I'll kill you first!"
The black-robed man fixed his gaze on the distant Dai Xingluo. With a flash, he appeared behind her.
The speed difference between the two was too great.
Dai Xingluo had just turned her head, not even having time to attack, when her body was violently shaken and sent flying, crashing onto a distant hillside.
"Ugh!"
Blood immediately sprayed from her mouth.
Whoosh!
A moment later, the black-robed man arrived in front of Dai Xingluo, "Quite pretty. A pity there are more important matters today, otherwise I would certainly have my way with you."
He had just raised his hand when he noticed a dark red long sword, like an arrow shot from a bow, flying towards him.
He immediately covered his hand with Qi and grabbed the sword.
Bang!
The very ground trembled.
At that moment, a figure appeared in the distance.
But the figure had just entered within twenty meters of him when it suddenly vanished.
The black-robed man shuddered and rapidly retreated several dozen meters.
When he steadied himself, he found a slit in the hood of his robe.
And on his face, a cut appeared, blood slowly seeping from the wound.
Xu Mu stood before Dai Xingluo and asked with a smile, "Xingluo, are you alright?"
"Brother, I'm not alright. I'm in so much pain!"
Dai Xingluo said, pouting her lips.
"It's you! Xu Mu?"
Lin Qianzhu, who was some distance away and had initially intended to come help, widened her eyes in surprise upon seeing this person.
"Brother even knows the sect leader's daughter?"
Dai Xingluo supported herself on the ground and slowly stood up. "Never mind, never mind. Brother has always been so free-spirited in his daily life. It's just me being petty."
"You're coughing up blood. Save your breath."
Xu Mu looked at Dai Xingluo somewhat helplessly.
Whoosh!
Just as Xu Mu turned his head, the black-robed figure charged before him once more.
"Brother!"
Dai Xingluo immediately cried out.
ing gift was a patch of barren land, and disciples were all picked up along the way. He spent fifty years diligently building three "ramshackle little sects," thinking he could finally live a carefree life relying on his disciples. But right at the fifty-year mark, he was suddenly swept away by a spatial rift and exiled to the Chaos Desolation, the Disorderly Ruins. There was no spiritual energy there, only slaughter. Relying on the cultivation feedback from his disciples, Gu Changyuan hacked his way through a sea of blood for eleven hundred years. When the system finally fished him back out, he discovered the ramshackle little sects he'd built back then had developed a rather... unusual style. Hold on... I vanished for a thousand years, so how did my ramshackle little sects become holy lands?!
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)
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.
e school belle recognized by the whole school, a genius girl from the kendo club. She also has a hidden identity, the youngest legendary demon hunter. Chen Shuo just transmigrated and found himself turned into a weak, helpless little vampire. He was caught by Su Xiyen and taken home at the very beginning. Since then, Chen Shuo's life creed only had two items. "First, classmate Su Xiyen is always right." "Second, if classmate Su Xiyen is wrong, please refer back to item one." Many years later, Chen Shuo, who had turned back into a human, led a pair of twins to appear in front of all the vampires to share the secret of how he turned back into a human. "It's simple, I tricked a female demon hunter into becoming my wife!"
