"Phew~"
By the window, Li Luo, wearing a coat over her qipao, took a sip of hot tea and exhaled a puff of warm air.
Finally, it felt a bit warmer.
Next to her, Ye Wangchuan, dressed only in an undershirt, was eating cultivation pills.
Three cultivation pills, like hawthorn balls, were swiftly devoured by Ye Wangchuan in three bites.
Then, expressionless, he picked up a cup of tea and took a sip.
Ugh...
No matter how many times I eat these cultivation pills, they still taste so bitter...
Ye Wangchuan thought to himself, then turned to Li Luo and said,
"I've finished the three cultivation pills. Now give me back my clothes."
"What? Didn't you sell the clothes to me directly?"
Li Luo, who had just warmed up, turned around in surprise.
Ye Wangchuan: "I only said three cultivation pills, not that I was selling you the clothes."
Li Luo: "Ye Wangchuan, your mom—"
"Your mom must be a celestial beauty, otherwise how could she have given birth to such a handsome son?"

"..."
Ye Wangchuan was stunned for a moment before saying,
"Are you trying to flatter me?"
"Ahaha, yes."
Li Luo said with a stiff smile.
"Flattery won't work. Oh well, just a piece of clothing, I'll give it to you."
Ye Wangchuan clapped his hands and called over a servant.
After a few words, a moment later, the servant brought a new set of clothes for Ye Wangchuan to put on.
Seeing this, Li Luo's expression froze.
"So you could just call a servant to get you clothes! Give me back my cultivation pills!!"
"Hmm? I was wondering why you were so insistent on my clothes."
Ye Wangchuan chuckled.
He just loved seeing this little loli chosen one lose her cool and go crazy.
...
...
In the old folks' area.
Several old men peeked out, secretly observing Ye Wangchuan and Li Luo.
Seeing Li Luo talking non-stop while Ye Wangchuan just smiled and listened.
One of the old men clicked his tongue and said,
"Old Li, you know what, I think these two really have potential!"
"That's right, look at Li Luo's coat, isn't it a bit too big? That's because it's Ye Wangchuan's coat!"
"Ha! Old Li, you've really struck gold this year! If this pair gets together, you'll surpass Old Liu for sure!"
The old men chattered among themselves.
Just then, all the old men suddenly felt a shiver down their spines, sensing a familiar yet dangerous aura.
They turned to see Ye Zhentian and Old Man Liu approaching with a smile.
"What are you looking at? Let me see too."
Ye Zhentian said cheerfully, following their gaze.
When he saw his son chatting and laughing with a little loli, he was momentarily stunned.
?
Ye Zhentian furrowed his brows and turned to the other old men, asking,
"What's going on?"
"Ahaha, Ye Ge, it's like this..."
The old men explained nervously.
After all, they were secretly gossiping about someone's son.
They had long heard that Ye Zhentian was extremely protective of his son.
If he got angry...
After the explanation,
"Oh, Old Ye, you know what, I think it's pretty good!"
Old Man Liu nudged Ye Zhentian with his elbow and said with a smile.
Unlike the other old men's nervousness, Old Man Liu looked quite relaxed.
"First, let's look at their talents. Your son is at the 99th rank, and Li Luo is at the 97th rank. Both are geniuses in terms of talent."
"Next, their looks. Your son is tall and handsome, almost perfect. And Li Luo, with her delicate features and healthy figure, is great except for being a bit short."
"Lastly, their backgrounds. Well... at least the Li family isn't too bad in my eyes."
Despite Old Man Liu's explanation, Ye Zhentian's frown didn't ease.
After a while, he shook his head and said,
"No, my son said he would only be with a strong partner."
"A girl like this, who's just starting out, would take ages to reach the ninth level."
"My son would never like such a young girl."
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
Ye Zhentian said more and more confidently.
Old Man Liu asked curiously, "But what if your son really likes that girl?"
Ye Zhentian waved his hand confidently, "He wouldn't! My son only cares about benefits. I know his personality well!"
"Unless, that girl has some kind of divine artifact that can continuously provide Ye Wangchuan with treasures!"
"Otherwise, I can't think of any other reason!"
Hearing this, the surrounding old men nodded in agreement.
Ye Wangchuan's personality was indeed like that.
But Old Man Li's expression wasn't so good.
He turned to look at Ye Wangchuan and Li Luo.
Seeing Li Luo wearing Ye Wangchuan's clothes and the two of them drinking tea together.
He just couldn't believe it.
If these two didn't like each other, why would they get so close?!
Could they both be getting treasures from each other or something?
No matter what, he still had to try to match them up.
If it worked, they'd be set for life!
...
...
"Ye Wangchuan, you... um... your fingers are quite nice, long and slender."

After a series of over-the-top compliments from Li Luo, she had successfully accumulated 200 emotional points.
But...
It was just too hard to compliment someone without repeating yourself and still provoke an emotional reaction.
Because the more you compliment, the more the other person gets used to it.
But scolding was different. A single "pervert" could be repeated several times to rack up emotional points.
Even if it got to the point where Ye Wangchuan was immune to being called a pervert, you could still switch up the taunts, like calling him a "small fry~".
But the downside of quickly racking up emotional points was that it was easy to go too far with the insults and get severely punished.
Meanwhile, Ye Wangchuan's mind was full of questions.
What is this chosen one up to?
Why is she complimenting me?
And her compliments are so lame...
Just as Ye Wangchuan was pondering,
Bang!
A loud crash came from the entrance as an old man burst through the door.
Behind the old man was a young man.
Ye Wangchuan glanced indifferently.
Hmm... don't recognize them, must be from some small family.
But the next moment, Ye Wangchuan understood the identities of the old man and the young man.
A servant walked up to them and said,
"Are you from the Tang family? I'm very sorry, but the Tang family and their pets are not allowed at this banquet. Please leave."
As soon as the servant finished speaking, the surrounding crowd burst into laughter.
"Which family is the Tang family again?"
"The one with the 3rd rank talent."
"Ohhh, that one! Hahaha—*cough* I just remembered something funny."
Hearing the continuous laughter around them,
Old Tang's face turned red with anger.
He immediately grabbed the servant by the collar and shouted,
"What do you mean by this, Ye family? You invited every family in Chang'an City, why didn't you invite my Tang family?!"
"That's right! How dare a mere servant speak to my father like that? You're asking for it! You're already on the path to death!"
Next to Old Tang, the young man Tang San also stepped forward to speak.
nd fell into a coma while saving his younger sister from an out-of-control car. He became a vegetable. No one knew that his consciousness had crossed into a world of cultivation. Over the course of sixty years, he began as the lowest kind of mine slave, struggling to survive amid mountains of corpses and seas of blood. By sheer chance, he eventually obtained the complete memories of a fallen Immortal King. Alchemy, medicine, formations, feng shui, physiognomy, artifact forging… Every great inheritance of the cultivation world was now his. But when he opened his eyes again, he discovered that ten full years had passed in the modern world. To pay for his treatment, his father had sold the family’s shop and house, leaving himself covered in lasting injuries and illness. His mother had cared for him day and night, and more than half of her hair had already turned white. His younger sister, who had been only fifteen back then, was now twenty-five. To help repay the family’s debts, she had been forced to lower her head and put on a smiling face in places of glittering lights and endless revelry. Only then did Chen Xuan understand that what he had lost was not merely ten years. He had lost the life his entire family was meant to have. The good news was that he had brought back the memories of an Immortal King’s entire lifetime. The bad news was that his soul had returned alone—his cultivation had not come with him. Spiritual energy was scarce, resources were depleted, and the modern world still had firearms, surveillance, capital, and laws. If he wanted to protect his family, break free from everyone’s control, and become truly invincible beneath the heavens, he would have to start all over again.
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.

So, tell me guys... what are my chances of making it to the end?

The house had no tenants, but the moment he was diagnosed with a terminal illness, a self-proclaimed empress from the Tianxuan Continent arrived as his first tenant.

lan, the Luo family, tracked him down - along with the babies in their arms. Mo Xuan stared pensively at the paternity test results from over a dozen top institutions, both domestic and international, showing a 99.99% match between himself and the two baby girls. At 23, Mo Xuan, a doctoral student, had become the father of two three-year-old children. The kicker? The mothers weren't even the same person! He gradually realized he was being lured step by step into an elaborate trap designed by these two yandere sisters. "Be good, little Xuan. Sister's life belongs to you entirely."
