Evening came, and Gu Chenan drove Su Qianmo back to the manor.
"Yutian, I bought what you asked for," Gu Chenan said, standing in the main hall with bags in hand, addressing Bai Yutian's room.
Soon, the door opened.
A woman in black pajamas with her hair down stepped out. This woman was none other than the once innocent and adorable little loli, Bai Yutian.
Although her appearance hadn't changed much, still as cute and beautiful as ever, her entire aura had undergone a dramatic transformation.
There was not a trace of the sweet girl vibe she once had. Instead, she exuded a gentle and intellectual charm from head to toe.
Bai Yutian quickly descended the stairs, taking the bags from Gu Chenan's hands. "Thank you. It must have been heavy."
"It's nothing," Gu Chenan replied, waving his hand. "Where are Kannon and Yuanyuan?"
"Sister Kannon and Sister Yuanyuan went shopping at noon. They should be back by now."
As soon as Bai Yutian finished speaking, a beam of car lights shone into the house.
Soon, Kannon and Fang Yuanyuan, also carrying bags, walked in.
Kannon wore a white short-sleeved top and a khaki long skirt, looking like the girl next door.
Fang Yuanyuan wore a pure white dress and had a headband on.
The difference between these two and their previous selves was significant. If it weren't for Gu Chenan having been with them for so many years, he would have had trouble recognizing them at first glance.
"Chenan, you're back?" Kannon asked.
"I thought I told you to wear the previous style. Why did you buy this outfit again?" Gu Chenan said, feeling a bit helpless.
Kannon lifted her skirt and turned around, showing it off. "I think this looks great."
Then she added, "But if you like, I can wear the previous style in front of you."
"Uh..."
Gu Chenan was at a loss for words.
It would be too unlike Kannon to change back to her old style just because of him.
"Forget it. It's fine. You look good in what you like."
Fang Yuanyuan rubbed her thigh. "Today was exhausting for both of us. We haven't walked so much in a long time. My legs and feet are killing me."
"You're both professionals. Can a day of walking really tire you out?" Gu Chenan raised an eyebrow.
Hearing this, Kannon and Fang Yuanyuan exchanged glances and laughed simultaneously.
"Since we came to the real world with you, we haven't executed any missions. Even though we were once professionals, we've become rusty. Plus, we haven't exercised in a long time, so our physical fitness has declined."
"So you're just going to let all your skills go to waste?" Gu Chenan asked curiously.
"Yes," Fang Yuanyuan nodded. "Since we don't need to execute missions or kill, those skills for killing will just fade away with time."
"Oh."
Gu Chenan felt a bit dazed.
He pursed his lips. "Do you like your current life? Or, to rephrase, which do you prefer—your past life or your present life?"
The two thought for a moment and said in unison, "Neither matters. What's important is that we just want to be with you."
No matter how much time passed or how the heroines changed, one thing remained constant.
Their love for Gu Chenan.
After chatting with the heroines for a while, Gu Chenan saw that it was getting late and returned to his room.
The crescent moon hung high in the sky, its light bright and clear.
Gu Chenan sat on the bed and tentatively asked, "So, what do you say?"
"What do you mean?" System Girl asked, feigning ignorance.
"Let's meet," Gu Chenan said, spreading his hands.
"Uh... okay."
Soon, a swirl of darkness in the room began to twist, quickly transforming into something resembling a portal of time and space.
From the portal, a pair of fair, flawless feet stepped out.
She wasn't wearing any clothes, her entire body as smooth as carved jade. Her face combined Su Qianmo's coldness, Liu Mingrui's boldness, Kannon's mischief, and Bai Yutian's cuteness.
In short, her face seemed to integrate the best features of several heroines without any awkwardness.
Even her figure was a perfect blend, with the right curves in the right places.
Gu Chenan's eyes were glued to her, completely stunned.
"How is it?"
System Girl shyly glanced at Gu Chenan.
"Gulp~"
Gu Chenan swallowed and pointed at System Girl. "Is this how you planned to meet me?"
"Huh?"
System Girl was taken aback and quickly looked down, her face turning red as she panicked. "No, no, no! Holy crap, where are my clothes!"
...
"You're quite something. Forgetting to wear clothes—that's a pretty good excuse."
On the bed, Gu Chenan sat on the left, while System Girl, embarrassed and shy, sat on the right. Now, System Girl was dressed in a pencil skirt and white lace thigh-highs.
"What do you mean, excuse? That's the truth. I had this outfit ready, but I just forgot to put it on when I came out."
"I'm not human, so I don't have the concept of needing to wear clothes when going out."
"Right, right."
Gu Chenan turned his head, raising an eyebrow. "You're dressed quite to my taste, aren't you?"
"This..."
System Girl hesitated. "I just think this looks good. It's not because of you. Don't get the wrong idea."
"Right, right."
Gu Chenan gently put his hand on System Girl's shoulder. "So, from now on, you'll stay with me in this form?"
"No," System Girl shook her head. "Coming out is very taxing on me. I'm not human, so maintaining a human body is too difficult."
"Oh."
Gu Chenan nodded. "Then, how long can you maintain this form?"
"Hmm..."
System Girl thought for a moment. "At most, about three hours."
"Three hours," Gu Chenan grinned. "That's plenty of time."
System Girl was immediately stunned. "Plenty of time for what? What are you talking about?"
But Gu Chenan suddenly pulled System Girl into his arms and gently pushed her down. "Of course..."
As he spoke, Gu Chenan's mouth approached System Girl's ear. "For... drilling."
Feeling the breath near her ear, System Girl's body involuntarily trembled, and her cheeks instantly turned red.
...
The next morning.
Gu Chenan woke up in bed, but System Girl was already gone.
He sat up, cleared his mind for a moment, then asked in his mind, "So, how was it?"
After a long silence, a voice full of suppressed anger responded, "How was what? I don't know what you're talking about."
Gu Chenan grinned. "I'm asking how I performed last night."
"You!"
System Girl was momentarily stuck, then angrily retorted, "You said you wouldn't do anything beastly to me! You... you're a beast!"
Gu Chenan raised an eyebrow and laughed. "You said you wouldn't dress in a way I like. Didn't you dress quite to my taste last night?"
"Besides, if you didn't like it, you could have disappeared back into my mind instantly. But even as you kept pushing me away, you never left, did you?"
"You... I'm not talking to you!"
"Alright, alright. I'm a beast, I'm a beast. Now, hurry up and figure out how to reactivate the novel world." Gu Chenan said.
"That's more like it."
System Girl paused and said, "It's almost done. In a few days, you'll be able to go back for a visit. But it'll only last a day. After that, the novel world will close, and you have to return before it closes. Otherwise, the consequences will be severe."
"Got it," Gu Chenan nodded.
One day was enough to see all the heroines.
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?
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.
