Hell's Rainforest.
A blood-covered man collapsed on the ground.
Teng Ao's expression was filled with grief and disbelief: "Why... why did it have to be you?"
"Weren't we brothers?!"
The reason for Teng Ao's grief was none other than the person before him...
Who had once been his brother-in-arms through life and death.
Hearing these words,
The man lying on the ground merely pulled a grotesque smile and said hoarsely: "Teng Ao... people change."
"You've held that position for far too long."
"After that great battle back then, everyone only remembers the War God."
"But we... we could only remain in the shadows like supporting characters."
"That's why... I pledged allegiance to that master!"
Upon hearing this,
Teng Ao's fists clenched with an audible crack.
His heart grew heavy.
Ever since he took on this mission six years ago, he had always felt an invisible hand controlling everything from behind.
Now it was clear that this mastermind was the same master his brothers spoke of!
Thinking this, Teng Ao shook his head, took a deep breath, and said solemnly: "Who is this master? Tell me! I'll take you to get treatment!"
"After you help me take revenge on your master, we can be brothers again."
Hearing this,
The man on the ground's expression grew even more sorrowful, and he smiled bitterly: "Teng Ao, after what I've done to you, why are you still willing to spare me?"
Hearing this, Teng Ao took a deep breath and said earnestly: "Because we are brothers."
At these words,
The fallen man's expression suddenly turned guilty and remorseful.
He regretted it, truly regretted it.
But that being was also an incredibly terrifying existence.
If he were to reveal everything here, perhaps...
His family...
Seeming to notice his concerns,
Teng Ao earnestly promised: "Don't worry, if you're concerned about your family's safety, I'll have my friend in the Royal City look after them!"
Hearing this, the man was stunned, muttering: "Friend in the Royal City?"
"That's right."
Teng Ao nodded: "When I first entered the Royal City, only that person didn't mock and ridicule me like those arrogant royal children."
"And it was she who brought Wen Yu and me together."
As he spoke,
Teng Ao suddenly noticed his good brother's expression becoming increasingly ugly, increasingly horrified, increasingly... terrifying?
He asked worriedly: "You..."
Before he could finish,
"Hahahahaha!!!"
The man lying on the ground suddenly burst into maniacal laughter, forcing himself up despite the pain.
Holding a curved blade, his eyes bulging, he sneered at Teng Ao: "Teng Ao!"
"Ah, Teng Ao! So that's how it is!"
"Hahaha!!"
"Let me tell you the truth!"
"Why do you think this mission took place in this rainforest?!"
"Hahaha! It's actually because the master needed the War God Temple and us to keep you occupied!"
"So the master could obtain the War God's Command Token from your wife and daughter!!"
At these words,
War God Teng Ao's expression changed drastically, and he roared: "What did you say?!"
Wen Yu and the others were in danger?!
The next second,
"Teng Ao!! Die!!"
Before Teng Ao could react, the man roared and swung his curved blade at him.
Teng Ao's expression changed, and just as he was about to defend himself,
The next moment,
Swoosh!!
A black figure appeared instantly behind the man, followed by a flash of blade light.
Thud!
The man was beheaded, his body falling to the ground.
"!!!"
Teng Ao's pupils constricted as he stared in disbelief at his suddenly decapitated brother.
Then, he roared at the mysteriously appeared black-robed figure: "What are you doing?!!"
Facing Teng Ao's fury,
The black-robed person calmly said: "He was trying to kill you, couldn't you see that?"
"He's my brother! He wasn't really trying to kill me then!"
Teng Ao roared.
He could sense it, could sense that the other person hadn't truly intended to kill him.
After all, even when healthy, his brother was no match for him, let alone now.
"How foolish. Teng Ao, this is why my lady says you're too naive."
"What did you say?"
Teng Ao was stunned.
The black-robed person said nothing more but took out a small device.
The next moment,
Shangguan Chuxue's voice came through: "Teng Ao, long time no see."
Hearing this voice,
Teng Ao's alert expression finally relaxed slightly, though he remained uncertain: "Shangguan Chuxue, is that you?"
Shangguan Chuxue was one of the few close friends he had made in the Royal City.
"How did you find me here?"
"Heh."
Shangguan Chuxue gave a light laugh, then...
Said solemnly: "Because your wife and daughter were recently attacked by people sent by the Su family's young miss, Su Muwan."
"What?!"
......
.....
Su Family Villa.
Living room.
"(＾－＾)V Yay!"
"I did it!"
"Qin Luo, look!"
Su Muwan sat on the sofa like an excited child, joyfully watching the ending CG scene playing on the TV.
Qin Luo returned with a bag of barbecue: "Young Miss, you beat the game?"
"Hmph! Of course!!"
"Five days, it only took me five days to complete this game!"
Su Muwan snorted lightly, then eagerly took the barbecue from Qin Luo: "Oh, Qin Luo, you even bought my favorite palm delicacy, mm, not bad!"
"Tell me what you've been up to today?"
Qin Luo sat nearby, preparing drinks while saying: "Went to recruit followers for you, Young Miss."
"Under the identity of the young master of Chen Family Martial Medicine."
"Munch munch, oh, you mean that Chen family that sells martial arts medicine globally..."
Su Muwan nodded while chewing.
Then,
Hm?
She looked at Qin Luo in surprise: "Chen Family Martial Medicine?"
She remembered that in her previous life, this Chen family's young master had been unremarkable in recent years.
But after graduating from Martial Arts University, although his martial arts talent wasn't great,
His medicine-making talent was extraordinary!
He had forcefully reached the Peak Realm by taking his own refined medicines!
Some even offered astronomical prices for him to refine breakthrough pills.
How did Qin Luo manage to recruit such a talent?
So, Su Muwan asked curiously: "Qin Luo, how did you manage that?"
"Did you use money?"
"No."
"Your charm?"
"No."
"Then what did you promise him?"
"Well, sort of."
"What promise?"
"To help him stop being a lovesick fool."
"....You're crazy."
....
....
In Shangguan Chuxue's back garden.
"As expected of master, effortlessly controlling both the War God and the King of Rakshasas!"
Yuwen Hua, unseen for a long time, looked respectfully at the figure routinely watering flowers before him.
"Heh, this is just the first step."
Shangguan Chuxue laughed lightly, her eyes revealing a mysterious meaning: "Next, let's see how Su Muwan handles my upcoming moves."
[Dao Companion Rental System]. By renting himself out as a temporary dao companion to daughters of destiny, Qin Hao could obtain generous rewards. His service philosophy was simple: play the role of the devoted lover, resolve their troubles, depart without a trace once the matter was settled, and absolutely avoid entangling karma. However, those daughters of destiny didn't see it that way. That night, all the major powers across the Three Realms and Nine Heavens jointly besieged the Qin Clan, plunging it into an unprecedented crisis. "It's Su Qingyue! The peerless sword immortal who attained the Dao and became an Immortal Emperor in a thousand years, the one who severed the River of Time with a single sword strike! When... when did our Qin Clan make an enemy of her?" Qin Hao stepped forward, clearing his throat lightly: "Ahem, Ancestors, don't panic. She's here for me. To be honest... she's my ex-girlfriend." From another direction, the newly ascended Empress of the Demon Realm arrived with ten thousand demons pressing on the border: "Qin Hao! Today, the entire Qin Clan shall be buried with you!" Hearing this, the Qin Clan ancestors all turned their eyes sharply towards Qin Hao. Qin Hao scratched his head somewhat sheepishly: "The Demon Empress... she's also my ex-girlfriend." Before the Qin ancestors could process this, an aloof figure traversed the River of Time: "The Qin Clan deserves annihilation!" Recognizing the newcomer, the Qin ancestors paled in terror: "It's her! Liu Ruyan, the Extinction Empress who ventured alone into the alien realm and suppressed it for an entire epoch! Didn't she vanish into the River of Time long ago? Why would she cross it just to target our clan?" Qin Hao scratched his head again, looking even more embarrassed: "My fault, my fault. She's an ex-girlfriend too." Watching countless celestial maidens descend, the Qin Clan ancestors were utterly astounded: "You scoundrel! Just... just how many women have you gotten involved with over the years?"
ress Kneels to Admit Wrong] [Dealing with Love-Struck Fools] [Forced to the Throne] Ren Tianye transmigrated into a female-oriented novel world, only to find everyone in it was utterly insane. He risked his life to save a young girl from barbarians, but was accused of arriving too late and branded the real murderer. He held a knife to a military officer's neck, demanding the troop tally, but the officer only cared about questioning his wife: "Do you not love me anymore? All these years of affection and time together, they were all a mistake, a mistake!" After seizing Yunji City, the original defending general, to save face with the Empress, knelt on the ground: "You must give Yunji City back to me, or I'll hang myself at the city gate and let everyone know you're a villain!" The young lord of the Duke's mansion, to please a woman, directly ordered a merchant: "The menstrual pads you buy for her must be studded with diamonds. Loving her means giving her the best." Having become a great general, he was about to marry a merchant's daughter, who set a pre-nuptial rule: "I can divorce you anytime. When that happens, you must give me half of your troops and soldiers!" Even the Empress was a severe love-struck fool, who ordered the execution of 70,000 elite troops simply because they stood in the way of her romance. Ren Tianye was speechless. He was done. Let it all burn! This deranged female-oriented novel world! ...
e school belle recognized by the whole school, a genius girl from the kendo club. She also has a hidden identity, the youngest legendary demon hunter. Chen Shuo just transmigrated and found himself turned into a weak, helpless little vampire. He was caught by Su Xiyen and taken home at the very beginning. Since then, Chen Shuo's life creed only had two items. "First, classmate Su Xiyen is always right." "Second, if classmate Su Xiyen is wrong, please refer back to item one." Many years later, Chen Shuo, who had turned back into a human, led a pair of twins to appear in front of all the vampires to share the secret of how he turned back into a human. "It's simple, I tricked a female demon hunter into becoming my wife!"
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)
