Ye Chen held all these rings in the palm of his hand. Pinching one between two fingers, he injected his Qi into it to store all the spirit stones in front of him.
He didn't expect his luck to be this good.
In a ruin he had visited previously, he had serendipitously obtained a grade-nine heavenly treasure, the Purifying Gu Flower.
It was a poisonous herb. Although its medicinal effects were astounding, it had a pungent, nauseating smell.
It was far inferior to those colorless and odorless poisons.
But this heavenly treasure also had its unique uses.
That was, Gu bugs were terrified of it. Even an ordinary Sacred Gu wouldn't dare approach upon smelling this scent.
After exchanging blows with the person he encountered earlier, Ye Chen had concluded that his opponent was a dead man controlled by Gu bugs.
Therefore, Ye Chen crushed this grade-nine heavenly treasure and sprinkled it onto his opponent's body.
When the Gu bugs smelled the scent, they all scattered from the corpse.
Ye Chen took the opportunity to hack the body to pieces and successfully made it here.
If he didn't have the heavenly treasure, with his current cultivation base, it would have been absolutely impossible to enter so quickly.
Xu Mu gradually clenched his fists. This was a great opportunity. So many spatial rings were definitely considered treasures.
His eyes locked onto Ye Chen's left hand. Taking a deep breath, he directly unleashed a God-level technique: the Void Phantom Sword's second stance, Phantom Kill.
Swish!
A black shadow instantly flew out from Xu Mu's body, its speed far surpassing that of Shadow Strike.
Ye Chen, who was busy packing the spirit stones, suddenly looked at the incoming shadow. His expression changed, and he immediately activated his Dragon Scale Armor.
But he was still a step too late. The target of the longsword in the shadow's hand was exactly Ye Chen's heart.
Right at that moment, startled by the sudden attack, the spirit stone in Ye Chen's hand slipped and happened to block the sword's blade.
The shadow shattered the spirit stone, but this bought Ye Chen time to dodge.
[Destiny Points -50]
"I knew it wouldn't be that easy!"
Xu Mu instantly swapped places with the shadow and unleashed a Heaven-level technique, slashing his sword at Ye Chen's left wrist.
Crack!
Even with the dragon scales covering it, Xu Mu's Heaven-Burning Sword Qi sliced through his defense, causing blood to spurt from his wrist.
The rings he was holding scattered all over the ground.
[Destiny Points -20]
Ye Chen rapidly retreated. Feeling the familiar energy of the technique, his eyes turned ice-cold. "It's you! Xu Mu!"
Xu Mu deactivated his illusion array. He crouched down and picked up all the spatial rings scattered on the ground.
There were over a dozen of them. He hadn't expected Ye Chen to be so stingy; with so many rings, he didn't even share a single one with Xiao Ran.
"Ye Chen, if you hadn't attacked me, we would still be considered relatives. What a pity."
Xu Mu placed all the rings into his storage space, his eyes fixed on Ye Chen.
"A pity? Pity that you're going to die?"
Ye Chen took out a healing pill and swallowed it. "You've ruined my plans time and time again, and you even stole Ye Tong, who belongs to me. Xu Mu, you deserve to die!"
"Ye Tong married me willingly. We are a loving couple. When did she ever belong to you?"
Xu Mu sneered.
"Whatever I set my eyes on is mine! Whoever dares to fight me for it will die. Even if he is a god, I will kill him."
"There's nothing to say to someone like you. Your biggest mistake was acting arrogant in front of me. Do you think I'm like those worthless trashes from overseas?"
As soon as Xu Mu finished speaking, he charged toward Ye Chen.
Through his Divine Eye, he had already seen that the current Ye Chen was at the same realm as him—both were late-stage Grandmasters.
But relying on his many powerful techniques, it was enough to kill him.
Xu Mu couldn't help but sigh emotionally. Initially, he was just cannon fodder facing Ye Chen, but now, he had the ability to kill him.
As long as Ye Chen, this major threat, died, he wouldn't be under so much pressure in the future.
As Xu Mu approached Ye Chen, he had already activated Demonic Guardian.
"Xu Mu! Today, I will kill you first!"
Ye Chen clenched his fists. "Boiling Dragon Blood!"
Buzz!
A massive dragon head phantom appeared behind Ye Chen.
Swish!
Xu Mu had already arrived by Ye Chen's side, slashing down forcefully with his longsword.
The black sword was coated with Heaven-Burning Sword Qi. Inside the blood-red flames, black flames were also mixed in.
Ye Chen had seen this move before and knew the grade of this technique was absolutely not low. He didn't dare to take it head-on.
Thus, he flew backward and suddenly raised his hand. "Dragon Blade!"
Swish!
From the phantom dragon head behind him, ten-meter-long dragon claws suddenly extended outward.
Golden light instantly crashed down on Xu Mu. Xu Mu immediately used his longsword to block the golden claw marks.
Crack!
The immense pressure from the golden light caused Xu Mu's feet to sink deep into the ground.
This kind of power, which far exceeded that of the same level, didn't fall outside of Xu Mu's expectations.
If he were facing an ordinary person, Xu Mu wouldn't even bother defending; he would let the attack hit him and rely on the Demonic Guardian to reflect it.
But the Ye Chen before him had a Destiny Level of over thirty.
He would never let his guard down.
"Xu Mu! Did you think you could survive against me? If it weren't for the experts by your side earlier, you would already be dead!"
Ye Chen sneered and charged forward fiercely.
His fingers were covered in golden spikes as he thrust toward Xu Mu's heart.
Right at that moment, Ye Chen's eyes widened in disbelief because the Xu Mu in front of him had vanished.
To be precise, he was now standing in the exact position Xu Mu had been in a moment ago.
"Oh no!"
Ye Chen immediately looked up as the golden claw marks crashed down instantly.
Boom!
The surroundings shook as the earth collapsed. Countless falling rocks and dust covered Ye Chen's body.
Xu Mu used his perception to check Ye Chen's location.
He continued to unleash Heaven-Burning Sword Qi, launching continuous strikes at Ye Chen.
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The fiery glow of the sword Qi flashed in the pitch-black cave.
[Destiny Points -10]
[Destiny Points -10]
Boom!
Right then, a pillar of golden light suddenly erupted, shooting straight into the sky and blowing a hole through the ceiling of the cave.
The scattering shockwaves caused the pile of spirit stones in the distance to collapse and scatter.
Ye Chen stood up from the ground. At this moment, his appearance had changed.
The original scales were just a translucent state formed by Qi, but now the scales on his body seemed to physically exist.
His arms, his neck, and even his face were covered in golden scales.
"Phew!"
Ye Chen exhaled a breath of air. "Xu Mu, unless it was absolutely necessary, I didn't want to use this move. I have to admit, you are stronger than ordinary people!"
Swish!
Ye Chen turned into a bolt of golden lightning and charged at Xu Mu.
Xu Mu immediately swung his longsword, slashing at Ye Chen.
Seeing this, Ye Chen grabbed the sword blade with his bare hands.
Slash!
The power of the Heaven-Burning Sword Qi instantly sliced through the golden scales, causing blood to spurt from his fingers underneath.
But the next moment, his bleeding stopped, and the scales on his palm regenerated.
Meanwhile, his other hand had clenched into a fist, smashing toward Xu Mu's body.
Xu Mu sneered and similarly threw a punch, meeting him head-on.
Boom!
The two fists collided, and the ground beneath their feet shattered into pieces.
Not only did Xu Mu withstand the attack, but he also forced Ye Chen two steps back.
Ye Chen's eyes widened more and more. How is this possible?

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.

As for the betrayed, vengeful arranged marriage wife… the plot hadn’t even begun yet. There was still time—if he couldn’t handle her, he could at least avoid her. "CEO Lu, are you avoiding me?" Mo Qingli fixed her gaze on Lu Chenyuan. For the first time, the shrewd and calculating Lu Chenyuan felt a flicker of unease.
