Shortly after bidding farewell to Dugu Sword Demon.
Wang Hao called.
"Chen Feng! You absolutely must not oppose the war anymore."
"I'm telling you a secret, you must not spread it."
"The seven great families have already agreed on how to divide the spoils of victory."
"If you oppose the war now, you're essentially cutting off their source of wealth."
"This interview was a trap they set for you in advance."
"Right now, their actions against you are just the beginning. Next, they might target your Chosen Martial Arts School."
"Several families covet the techniques of the Chosen Martial Arts School and want to use this opportunity to finish you off. You'd better think of a way quickly!"
"Just keep this to yourself, don't tell anyone."
"I originally promised them I wouldn't tell a second person."
Hearing Wang Hao's words, a surge of anger rose within Chen Feng.
He had wholeheartedly been thinking of how to help them avoid disaster.
Yet the repayment was endless persecution.
For a moment.
Chen Feng felt this world was not worth it.
The seven great families, for their own interests, completely ignored his warnings.
Even deliberately suppressed him.
He was still unwilling to give up.
Finally, using Jin Youxi's Douyin account, Chen Feng posted one last video.
"I cannot stop the war."
"Once Kunlun opens its gates, you will all surely regret it!"
As soon as the video was posted, mockery followed.
But this time.
Chen Feng didn't even look.
He had done his best.
And he had also come to understand.
He could not protect the world.
What he should do most was find a way to protect his own disciples.
At that very moment, an urgent news bulletin interrupted the television broadcast.
[Announcement! After losing twenty Martial Venerables and over two hundred Grandmasters in battle, the Southern Continent has announced its unconditional surrender to Great Xia this evening.]
As the news of victory spread, Great Xia was in an uproar.
It could be said.
The surrender of the Southern Continent meant Great Xia's territory was about to double.
Holy Capital.
A seven-star hotel.
Representatives of the seven great families were gathered joyously together.
The entire hotel had been booked out.
Other floors were also filled with scions of the various families.
At this moment, they were all celebrating one thing.
The surrender of the Southern Continent.
The Wei family, leader of the seven great families, was the first to speak.
"Now that the Southern Continent has surrendered."
"The remaining two continents likely won't hold out much longer."
"But regarding what Chen Feng said, we should still be cautious. Avoid unnecessary slaughter."
"Try to find out news about Feng Tengyun and Mi Chuan as soon as possible, and eliminate the threat for good."
Ye Wujiang laughed:
"A mere few thousand Kunlun remnants, how could they possibly have several hundred Martial Saints?"
"That kid is definitely spreading alarmist talk."
"Even if Kunlun's gates truly open permanently, the Kunlun remnants would be no match for Great Xia."
"And the Dragon Vein will also fall into the hands of our seven great families."
Someone from the Li family immediately suggested:
"When the time comes, we must definitely send people to surround the Dragon Vein."
"Except for members of our seven great families, no one else is allowed entry."
"As for those barbarians, the Kunlun remnants, let them emigrate to the other continents."
Two people from the Liu family said:
"Let's use this opportunity to also bring down this Chen Feng."
"After all, this person is not of pure Great Xia blood. If he grows stronger in the future, he might become a second Zhang Bowen."
"It's better to keep him under strict surveillance."
The representative from the Zhang family also nodded.
"This Chen Feng harbors sinister intentions, actually attempting to stop Great Xia from unifying the world."
"This is such a monumental feat."
"Countless great predecessors failed to achieve it, yet our generation has accomplished it."
"For Chen Feng to spread rumors at this time is simply treason."
"I suggest sealing his Chosen Martial Arts School. The school's techniques should be temporarily collected by the Martial Arts Association."
The representative from the Wang family watched quietly, not speaking much.
They did not want to join the five families in dealing with Chen Feng.
But the family Martial Saint, Wang Zun, had given instructions.
Adopt a wait-and-see approach, neither agreeing nor opposing.
Not participating, but not withdrawing either.
The person from the Dugu family merely frowned slightly.
But following the instructions of the family ancestor, they said nothing.
Waiting quietly for further developments.
...
At this moment, the five families were already planning how to divide the world.
How to lead their families to achieve monumental deeds.
The day after Chen Feng's interview.
The Chosen Martial Arts School, which was being rebuilt, was ordered to stop.
The reason given was a report from Chen Feng's disciple, Ye Xing.
Chen Feng, the master of the Chosen Martial Arts School, had an unclear personal stance and was suspected of being a traitor.
Chen Feng was placed under house arrest, forbidden to leave Kunlun City.
At the same time, the martial arts school's business license was revoked.
The martial arts techniques of the school were also confiscated and placed under the ownership of the Martial Arts Association.
All students of the Chosen Martial Arts School.
Would be transferred to martial arts schools under the Martial Arts Association to continue their martial arts training.
As soon as the Martial Arts Association issued the announcement.
The matter instantly escalated.
Chen Feng's image as a Great Xia hero also collapsed at this moment.
"If the Martial Arts Association issued an announcement, it seems this Chen Feng really isn't clean."
"Serves him right! Wanting to save those foreigners, even fabricating a mythological story."
"Anyone who tries to stop Great Xia from unifying the world is a criminal."
"All this time, I was actually a fan of his. Who knew he was a traitor?"
...
The entire internet was filled with scolding.
Although there were some who spoke up for Chen Feng.
Their comments would be deleted and their accounts banned as soon as they were posted.
Jin Youxi and Liu Weiwei's accounts were even directly suspended.
"Master, Ye Xing is really too much."
"Who would have thought he seemed honest and obedient, but ended up being just like that traitor Xiao Ruohan."
"I heard from Uncle Wang Hao that this is all the five families maliciously targeting you."
Jin Youxi was so angry she almost threw her phone.
Liu Weiwei also said indignantly:
"If it weren't for Grandpa Dugu's guarantee today, Master might have been arrested."
Grandpa Jin shook his head and sighed.
In his view, young people encountering setbacks was all too normal.
But Chen Feng's situation was truly disheartening.
Not only betrayed by a disciple, but also bullied by Great Xia's power class.
At this time, only Zhao Bing was unaware of what had happened.
Spending his days either practicing swordsmanship or in the midst of practicing swordsmanship.
His proficiency in the Thirteen Deadly Swords was nearing a transcendent level.
...
Deep within the front lines of the Northern Continent.
Xiao Ruohan, having just returned from a search mission.
As soon as she got back to camp, she immediately checked the news about Chen Feng.
When she saw the Martial Arts Association's punishment.
Xiao Ruohan revealed an excited smile.
At this moment, she really wanted to see Chen Feng's expression when he first saw this news.
"Didn't expect this, did you, Chen Feng! Not only did I betray you."
"Your newly accepted little disciple also betrayed you!"
"And the Great Xia you love so much also betrayed you!"
"Hahaha..."
Xiao Ruohan felt that since she was born.
She had never been this happy.
Seeing Chen Feng betrayed once again, her heart felt an indescribable thrill!
Her laughter at this moment grew increasingly maniacal, her face gradually contorting.

lity and could only live as an ordinary mortal. He only wished to live a peaceful life. Yet he didn't know— The dog he adopted, because it ate his food, became a legendary demon king. The kitchen knife he casually forged became a peerless divine weapon, causing numerous experts to fight desperately for it. The young disciple he took in became an immortal lord that led an era, due to cultivating the techniques Ye Feng taught him. Even the skeletons he looked down on the most were ominous demon kings that suppressed countless worlds. Many years later, looking at the void shattered with a punch, Ye Feng murmured to himself: It turns out the peerless kings were myself all along...

ions, keeping it grounded and realistic】 After quitting his job, office worker Su Yang accidentally binds with the "Enjoy Life System." As the name suggests, simply by indulging in life's pleasures, he can earn random rewards from the system—no need to spend money on beautiful women or grovel before anyone. Just enjoy, and the money follows, making it all about effortless fun. The system comes with a scanning feature, allowing him to establish a favorability bond with women rated 85 points or above. Every 20-point increase in favorability unlocks additional rewards. After suffering through over twenty years of hardship, Su Yang trembles with excitement, his dull eyes suddenly gleaming with newfound hope. "Enjoy life? How hard could that be?"

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 colors of other people’s emotions. Light red meant anxiety. Gray meant exhaustion. Orange meant excitement. Yellow... meant repression. At the same time, he could gain unlimited control over one of those colors. Pale cyan: relaxation. Using this ability, he started offering “two-yuan hugs,” spending an afternoon exchanging emotional-color experiences with others. Then came his final female customer of the day— a girl whose emotional color was pure black... —— A week later, Xu Chuan had become skilled at using pale cyan—Relaxation—treating it like a bottle of menthol balm whenever he needed it. That was when he discovered he had unlocked another unlimited emotional color: Purple, the color of fear. So these emotional colors refresh every week? Fine, I take it back—I’ll never call you useless again... —— Much later, after Xu Chuan had accumulated countless emotional abilities, one night, he suddenly found himself inside someone else’s dream. There, he could use the emotional colors he possessed to paint. And in her dream, he painted her a shower of pink shooting stars, spreading across the depths of the night sky...
