Shilan School.
Chen Hao lay in the security room at the school gate, his legs casually propped up on the table.
Smoking a cigarette and scrolling through videos of beautiful women, life was pretty sweet.
"Damn, these female streamers... they're all high-tech," Chen Hao muttered to himself. He couldn't help but think of Qin Qiaoqiao, the kind of girl who was a pure, natural beauty—beautiful, innocent, and adorable. She put those streamers to shame.
But the moment he thought of Qin Qiaoqiao stepping out of that Maybach, his heart ached.
"Damn it, the student who bullied her is named Jiang Che, right?"
You've got a death wish!
At that moment, a few middle-aged men appeared at the gate.
"Security, are you there? Open the door! Let us in."
Chen Hao glanced over, his eyes narrowing slightly.
They were wearing administrative jackets, big leather shoes, carrying briefcases, and holding teacups filled with water.
Normally, Chen Hao might have thought they were some kind of officials.
But just moments ago, the principal had warned him that these guys weren't officials at all—they were small-time vendors from outside the school.
"Damn it," Chen Hao clenched his fists and opened the window.
"Hey! Who the hell are you? Don't you know it's class time? If you're not a teacher or student here, get the hell out!"
His mood was already sour. The girl he had a crush on was being flirted with by another guy, and it felt like he was being cheated on.
So naturally, these supposed "leaders" from the provincial government became his punching bag.
The leaders, who had been scolded by Chen Hao, looked at each other, their faces bewildered.
They had never expected to be yelled at by a security guard.
"Ah... haha! Shilan School really lives up to its reputation as a prestigious school. Even the security guard is so vigilant. The students' safety is indeed well-protected."
The leader at the front let out an awkward laugh.
"Security guy, we just want to stroll around the school. We've already communicated with your principal. Let us in, huh?"
The leaders smiled faintly, not appearing angry.
"I told you to get lost, didn't I? What are you? Do you really think any random stray cat or dog can just waltz in?" Chen Hao bellowed.
He wasn't giving them any face at all.
The leaders, seeing that Chen Hao wasn't taking the hint, finally lost their cool. Their faces twisted in frustration, as if they had just eaten something disgusting.
"Young man, how are you speaking? Don't you know the basics of respect?"
Chen Hao scoffed. "Respect you? You're just a bunch of small-time vendors. Respect my ass!"
Even worse, Chen Hao spat on the ground. With the help of his internal energy, this wasn't just any spit—it was a spit straight out of Wang Wei's poetry. It flew over seven meters, landing right on the leader's face with a splat.
The atmosphere turned eerily silent.
"Where's your principal? I need to see your principal!"
The leaders were at their wits' end. It was like being a tiger in the plains, humiliated by a dog. These inspection team members might not have much real power in the education department, but which school didn't treat them with respect?
Yet today, they hadn't even set foot inside the school gate and were already being humiliated like this. Even Naruto would have lost his patience!
"Secretary Lin, I'll make the call," one of the others quickly dialed a number.
Chen Hao, however, still wore a mocking expression.
"Oh, oh, oh, acting pretty convincing, huh? Pretending to make a call? I bet no one's picking up, haha!"
"You... I'll say it one more time. Apologize to us, open the gate, and this will all be over. We won't hold it against you..." Secretary Lin gritted his teeth, wiping the spit off his face with a tissue.
A wave of nausea hit him. What the hell? Did this guy eat garlic for lunch?
"Apologize to you? Who do you think you are to make me apologize?" Chen Hao remained arrogant and unyielding.
Secretary Lin: "......"
It was truly a rare sight. A security guard bullying them!
"Hello... is this Principal Wang Liwen of Shilan School? Our inspection team is being held at the gate by your security guard. Please come over quickly."
On the other end, Wang Liwen, upon receiving the call, furrowed his brows.
What? Didn't I already inform the security guard? What's going on?
But he still rushed out in a hurry.
......
Seeing that the other party had actually made a successful call, Chen Hao's expression grew tense.
He might be arrogant, but he wasn't stupid. These people didn't seem like they were pretending.
If they were ordinary vendors... being targeted like this, they would have run away by now. But these guys were still standing there, fuming.
"You... are you really leaders from the provincial government?" Chen Hao asked tentatively.
But Secretary Lin and the others didn't respond to him.
This scene at the school gate also caught the attention of many students.
"Damn, this security guard is so badass. Those guys clearly look like high-ranking officials, and he still dares to argue with them?"
"This guy really doesn't fear death!"
Not long after, Wang Liwen hurried over.
"Secretary Lin! Secretary Lin, what's going on? What happened?"
Wang Liwen wiped the sweat from his forehead. He was just a principal, and his power wasn't even as great as the school board members.
When Chen Hao saw that the principal had actually been called over, he felt a bit panicked and quickly stood up.
"Principal Wang, what brings you here?"
The principal didn't respond to him. He quickly got to the bottom of the situation.
He almost fainted from anger.
"Secretary Lin, please come in. Chen Hao, what are you doing? Open the gate right now!"
He wanted to strangle Chen Hao, but as a principal, he couldn't lose his temper in public.
In schools, principals and vice-principals rarely get angry. They usually keep smiling, leaving the dirty work to the director of teaching and head teachers.
Chen Hao nodded quickly, his mind still in a daze, completely unsure of what was happening.
"I'll deal with you later! Secretary Lin, this way..." Wang Liwen glared at Chen Hao, then began bowing and scraping to the leaders.
"Heh... your school's security guard has quite the temper, huh? He even called me a small-time vendor. So... you look down on small-time vendors, do you?"
"No, no, no~"
Chen Hao clenched his fists, inwardly cursing, "Stupid principal! F*** you!"
He had no idea what was going on. Was this principal out of his mind? I was just following your instructions!
But Chen Hao knew very well that if he didn't do something... he might lose his job as a security guard.
"I can't lose this job! There are so many beautiful girls in this school waiting for me to charm!"
s the Eldest Princess, renowned for her cold and aloof detachment, became the most docile of lambs, obeying his every command without question. But when the final move was played on the chessboard, as Gu Chenghan seized everything and ascended on the verge of apotheosis, that very Princess suddenly embraced him from behind, her tone carrying a dependence never heard before: "Wait... you haven't yet... commanded me to love you forever."

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.
uld barely embark on the path to immortality. Just as he was on the verge of death, his golden finger awakened. No matter whether it was poison, drained blood and vital energy, diminished lifespan, or any other physical debuff caused by paying a price—once midnight passed, everything would be refreshed. From then on, whenever someone asked what kind of person Chu Ran was, the answer was simple: Forbidden arts that other cultivators dared not learn? Chu Ran would learn them. Prices that even demonic cultivators dared not pay? Chu Ran would pay them. Lifespan that even righteous cultivators dared not burn? Chu Ran would burn it. All the blood essence in his body? Take it. Want both his hands and feet? He would cut them off and send them to you. You say he’s finished? He wasn’t built to sit idle. You think he’s gone mad? No—he was simply waiting for midnight. From that day onward, Chu Ran would respect neither Heaven nor Earth, bow to neither gods nor ghosts. He had only one wish: For midnight to arrive a little sooner.
