In just one short morning, everything that happened at the conferment ceremony was enough to rock the entire Canglong Dynasty.
Ye Xiu, in the position of the Holy Son, was killed with one sword by everyone's so-called "waste of space"!
Ye Xiu summoned the king-level demonic beast Zi Yi Tian Peng as well as a Star Emperor powerhouse, injuring the North Ice Star Emperor. Ultimately, the North Ice Star Emperor fled!
Yue Guan, who was most likely to become the Guardian General, was thrown into prison. Then the Retired Emperor personally announced that Ye Haotian would defend his title of Guardian General!
The conferment ceremony continued until nightfall before it finally ended.
After that, the Retired Emperor specially held a night banquet.
Canglong Lake.
The largest lake within the imperial palace. Banquet tables were placed all around it, with lotus lanterns floating on the lake's surface, rippling slightly. It was amazingly picturesque.
Ye Xiu sat alone on a painted barge.
His father was being toasted by all the major nobles, but he didn't like those people in power. As for Mo Lao, he didn't let Mo Lao stay for long, since this was Canglong Imperial Palace, so there was no need.
Thus, Ye Xiu was sitting alone on the painted barge, drifting along with the waves.
Watching the ripples on the lake surface, he thought to himself: When will I be able to take my nine fairy sisters on a boat and appreciate such a beautiful scene together?
Just then, an exquisite figure descended onto the painted barge Ye Xiu was on, graceful as a heavenly fairy. Moonlight spilled down, casting a faint silvery veil over her already jade-like complexion, making her appear even more dazzling and translucent.
Ye Xiu looked up and the delight in his eyes gradually chilled as well.
The newcomer was none other than Cang Xuanyue.
Cang Xuanyue stepped lightly on the moonbeams and sat gently across from Ye Xiu.
"Brother Ye Xiu," her voice was as melodious as a hundred singing birds, soothing to listen to. It was like an electric current running through him, making his whole body tingle.
A hint of light flashed through Ye Xiu's eyes. It had been three years since their broken engagement, so this was the first time she had called him that again.
Cang Xuanyue's beautiful eyes lowered and she gave a self-deprecating laugh, "Brother Ye Xiu, it's only right that you ignore me. After all, it was Xuanyue who wronged you. For what happened three years ago, I should take the blame."
Tears shimmered in Cang Xuanyue's eyes, evoking sympathy.
She looked towards the faint ripples on the lake surface, "When we were young, we often sat together like this on painted barges, appreciating the scenic beauty of Canglong Lake..."
Memories slowly surfaced in her mind. Although Ye Xiu hadn't experienced those events himself, that beautiful time was deeply engraved in his impressions.
"Those were really wonderful memories," Ye Xiu slowly turned his head, his cold eyes fixed on Cang Xuanyue, "But three years ago, why did you have to act so cruelly?"
From childhood until now, she had never been so heartless towards him.
Ever since their broken engagement three years ago, Cang Xuanyue hadn't said a single word to him for a full three years!
"I, Cang Xuanyue..." she began tremblingly.
Just then, a golden radiance as dazzling as the sun suddenly enveloped the pitch-black night sky.
In that moment, countless people were incredibly shocked as they looked up.
Having just experienced the upheaval Ye Xiu had caused that morning, the first thought in most people's minds was that this must be another move by Ye Xiu - had he called out to another expert?
Cang Xuanyue closed her mouth, a teardrop rolling down her cheek before she lightly wiped it away. Her expression hardened back into remote iciness.
Watching Cang Xuanyue's retreating figure, Ye Xiu couldn't help but feel that three years ago, her annulment of their engagement may not have been what she truly wanted, but rather, something she was forced into against her will!
He walked to the prow of the boat. The blinding golden light forced him to raise a hand to shade his eyes.
Ye Xiu's eyes faintly trembled.
Above the night sky, a golden lotus was suspended over Canglong Lake.
A woman clothed in snowy white robes sat upon the golden lotus, ethereal as a dream. Her face was veiled, but with just her eyes revealed, their gaze alone caused all surrounding scenery to dim in comparison.
One could well imagine that beneath the veil must be a shockingly peerless beauty.
"The Immortal Lotus Sanctum has come to pay a visit to the Canglong Dynasty!" Her voice was gentle yet cold, piercing to the bone. It contained a commanding pressure that shook heaven and earth.
As her voice faded, countless people froze in place, stunned.
Even Cang Yang and the others couldn't help their eyes violently shaking as they gazed up in awe.
The Immortal Lotus Sanctum - in the Star Continent, who didn't know this existence?
As one of the Nine Great Sanctums occupying the nine Central Domains, they were the overlord of the two prefectures!
For a time, apart from shock, continuous exclamations of awe rose one after another.
"We greet the Fairy Maiden of the Immortal Lotus Sanctum!"
Cang Yang glanced at Cang Xuanyue, then shot a look at Ye Xiu on the boat. He couldn't help but sigh, such was the hand of fate.
Just then, the woman on the golden lotus slowly spoke, her voice divine, "Xuanyue, have you let go of everything now?"
Cang Xuanyue slowly raised her head, "Master, Xuanyue has let go."
"Good. Then come back with me." As she finished speaking, a swirl of golden divine light descended and brought Cang Xuanyue directly onto the golden lotus.
Watching this scene, Ye Xiu's eyes wildly shook. Xuanyue had joined the Immortal Lotus Sanctum!
Ye Xiu was caught completely off guard.
Cang Xuanyue's beautiful eyes lowered again and she exchanged one final glance with Ye Xiu, the guilt in her eyes gradually being concealed.
"Brother Ye Xiu, I'm sorry. Seeing that you've grown up now, I can rest assured..."
"Farewell."
Pain wrenched Cang Xuanyue's heart.
From this day forth, Cang Xuanyue would be the Immortal Lotus Sanctum's Saintess!
As this voice faded, the golden lotus transformed into rays of golden light tens of thousands of feet long before disappearing into the dark night.
Ye Xiu's gaze flickered. Indeed, you're still keeping things from me, aren't you?
Just now, what were you trying to tell me?
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?
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)
e, Immortal Body, Transmigration, System, Progression Fantasy, Academy Setting, Third-Person Perspective. Alternate Title: Transmigrating into a High Martial World and Reading Live Comments. Bad news: I transmigrated. This is a terrifying high-martial world, and my original, pathetically weak body fell into a coma and never woke up. Good news: I got a Popularity Points system upon arrival. I can see live comments and even create an unkillable alternate identity. Starting out, the alternate identity has all stats at 1. The system tells me that to grow stronger, I must participate in the plot, gain popularity points to allocate stats and grow stronger, and ultimately awaken my original body. And so, carrying my original body on my back, I officially entered Huaqing Academy, where the story's protagonist resides. From that moment on, Chen Guan kicked the original plot to pieces. Live Comments: [Doesn't anyone find this mysterious coffin guy creepy? He can summon indescribable grey misty hands.] [Is this guy a hero or a villain? What kind of onion became a spirit?] [By the way, does anyone know who's in the coffin? Shouldn't the debt for saving his life be repaid by now?] [According to unofficial histories, the person in the coffin was Chen Guan's first love. Their love was once passionate and earth-shattering, but they were separated by life and death due to worldly circumstances. What a star-crossed pair.] ... Years later, the world knew of a demon god born from a coffin, shrouded in grey mist, impossible to gaze upon directly. His foremost divine emissary often wielded a scythe, reaping lives like the god of death. As war approached, facing former friends and a boundless sea of enemies, Chen Guan merely raised his scythe. "Would you like to dance as well?"
and couldn't return to the real world. Finally, I gave up and decided to go with the flow, only to discover that writing a diary could make me stronger. Since no one could read it, Su Luo wrote freely, daring to pen anything and everything. Female Lead #1: "Not bad. This diary helped me steal all the protagonist's opportunities. I just want to get stronger." Female Lead #2: "I don’t care about reaching the peak of the cultivation world. Right now, I just want to enjoy the chaos." Female Lead #3: "What? Everyone around me is a spy? I’m the Joker Demon Lord?" ... It’s so strange. Why is the plot completely off track, yet the ending remains the same? Are you all just messing with me?!
