Chapter 265: Why are there so many stupid conversations?

I wish I was able to go to a restaurant to have a simple meal without getting involved in troublesome shit...

"Hey Listen! Hahahahaha look at this idiot who dares to be a cocky bitch! You conceited idiot, your women will belong to my stupid fellow tsundere!" – Navi was having fun as she looked at an unconscious boy who was bound by chains of purple energy.

We are currently in a pocket dimension created by Abby to avoid drawing the attention of troublesome people.

Tang Wan and Lin Ruoxi can resolve their differences in a civil way so I'm not worried about them, the real problem is the protagonist in front of me, or should I say, the reincarnated in front of me...

"Travel to another world, return in time, and reincarnation in one body" - Nyaruko looked at the boy with curiosity. – "He just lacks a system to be the perfect cliché protagonist"

"Did you have to destroy his spiritual roots with your spiritual pressure?" -System Goddess sighed.

"This ignorant pig dared to offend our husband" – Aotian snorted disdainfully.

System Goddess sighed again. – "I have no filial piety, but hearing you call my teacher an ignorant pig is uncomfortable"

Aotian snorted again. – "The husband is more valuable than a master, teacher, or father"

Her father really rotted her brain...

This is the thing.

[Name: Tang Xiu

Origin: Returning from the Immortal World

Categories: Man. Protagonist. Cultivator. Reincarnated. Transmigrator. Returner of time. Gary Stu]

This guy is the teacher of System Goddess who died thousands of years ago, but apparently, the plot made very absurd adjustments.

To begin with, System Goddess's homeworld is a cultivation world that does not belong to the Eternal Heaven Immortal and this guy is not a Higher Entity, but somehow the fabric of his world got mixed up with Gaia due to the cracks in the barrier of this world.

With [Reader's Perspective] I analyzed his identity and it's somewhat problematic.

The idiot is a bastard son of the Tang family which makes him a distant cousin of Tang Wan.

Mixed plots, what a novelty…

On top of that, Tang Xiu was a powerful cultivator on par with old man Luo De in his prime. Making a comparison, Tang Xiu was comparable to a disposable soldier

of Heaven Eternal Immortal which is amazing for a simple cultivator who doesn't have the backing of Higher Entities.

The boy has a backstory of betrayal and other stupid things that I don't really care about, what really matters is that this boy is what the System Goddess calls 'An old monster'.

Tang Xiu is a cultivator with thousands of years of knowledge and experience which made him apathetic, aloof, and proud. He's basically a glorified jerk.

The boy is over 10,000 years old, but he still acts like an overbearing teenager who thinks he knows everything... Anyway, cultivators.

When Ruoxi arrived at the restaurant, Aotian sent me a mental message to tell me about the presence of a reincarnated cultivator and asked if she should eliminate him.

I told her no since it's currently a sensitive time and it's better to be discreet, but told her that if the cultivator turned hostile then she could kill him.

Apparently, the protagonist insulted me which Aotian interpreted as hostility so she used her spiritual pressure to tear the protagonist's meridians, break his Dantian, and even severed the spiritual roots that are the soul's link to the spiritual energy a cultivator needs to cultivate the Dao.

This level of injuries cannot be easily healed with spirit medicines, it will literally be necessary to rebuild Tang Xiu's body for him to become a cultivator again.

Aotian seems like a woman without personality due to how extremely submissive she is towards my will, but the truth is that she is in the top 10 of the most violent and irrational women in my harem which are worrying.

This woman will cause me a lot of trouble, but I can't complain since technically she didn't do anything wrong...

As if that wasn't enough, Aotian extracted the Destiny from the idiot's soul and gifted it to me when we entered this dimension.

My wife's Dao allows her to steal plot armor more easily than my system. She is an absurd character.

At first, I thought of lobotomizing the idiot to turn him into a puppet to help me gain influence in the Tang family, but now I'm in a dilemma due to my stupid feelings of attachment.

System Goddess has been very supportive to the point that she has been the most useful woman in my life and although she is willing to kill her teacher in order to survive, it is obvious that she is uncomfortable with this.

I don't want to see her depressed so I'm thinking of options.

In addition to Tang Xiu having enormous potential and one of the thickest plot armors I've ever seen, I also detected the protection of a Higher Entity in his soul.

With [Reader's Perspective] and help from System GoddessI was able to identify that entity.

She is the second disciple of Tang Xiu and adoptive sister of the System Goddess, a woman named Gu Yan'er. She also belongs to the story 'Returning from the Immortal World'.

The fact that two of Tang Xiu's female disciples became Higher Entities even though he is still a mortal shows that he has great innate talent as a teacher, even if that talent is based on increasing the luck of his disciples.

Another thing is that I could easily see Gu Yan'er's presence since she seems to be severely injured so her barriers to protect her identity are very weak, I could even see her current location which is in China. She is an undocumented visitor similar to Aotian.

Now it turns out that any idiot can enter this World. I want to hit Alaya…

Gu Yan'er's spiritual power became so weak that I can easily search for and capture her, it's even possible that [Reader's Perspective] worsened her injuries due to the corrosive effects of [Reader's Madness].

Well, she is a Higher Entity so she will not die, at most, she will remain in a coma for several million years.

"Ne senpai, what are we going to do with the idiot?" – BB smiled as she used a tree branch to sting Tang Xiu as if he were a dead squirrel. – "Senpai already has the plot armor so the waifus will reach senpai, the System Goddess's knowledge is superior to this idiot's knowledge and he is also useless as a disposable pawn since he is too proud… He really is useless so let's see how Ortro-chan chews his soul~"

"Food?" – Ortro asked innocently.

I patted Ortro's head and sighed. – "System Goddess will decide what we do with him"

System Goddess looked at me gratefully. – "Actually I don't care too much if he dies, but I worry about Yan'er's reaction, she has always been in love with our teacher and she was kind to me when we were kids so I have a little gratitude to her"

"Oh come on, everyone here has no morals" – BB rolled her eyes. – "Wouldn't you like to refine this idiot's soul to make a spirit pill or something? A soul that ignored the reincarnation cycle twice and was able to break through the barriers between worlds is certainly valuable material~"

"…" – System Goddess seemed tempted by the idea.

"Is seriously? Technically he is your father" – Tsubaki grimaced bitterly.

"Parents are overrated" – Nyaruko shrugged. – "The shonen protagonists don't have them and yet they are the protagonists"

Tsubaki sighed. – "Not everything is an anime"

The irony…

"Everything is JoJo's and JoJo's has anime so everything is anime" – Nyaruko made a strange pose.

By the way, I can hear that name as I found out that the Hamon energy and Stand concept come from JoJo's Bizarre Adventure series.

Stupid knowledge keeps piling up in my mind… At this rate, I'll be as stupid as my sister, how depressing.

"Can I give my opinion?" – Daedalus raised her hand discreetly, she prefers not to attract attention, but she formed a good friendship with SystemGoddess.

She is here because she was curious about the spiritual makeup of an extremely talented cultivator like Tang Xiu.

In fact, she has been doing experiments on the corpses I collected in the Buddhist sect as she seeks to understand the anatomy of cultivators with great innate talents and thus make modifications to angeloids to make them stronger.

I nodded at her, I like it when my wives show initiative and express their ideas since it's boring to have a collection of submissive dolls.

Daedalus had a nervous expression as if she was worried about being criticized for her ideas. – "We can alter his memory to make him a puppet, then we can use all the chaos regarding Shub-Niggurath to fake his death in front of the woman named Gu Yan'er, so she will be emotionally destroyed… With the support of System Goddess and the sneaky tricks you use, that woman may want to join our group to make up for the lack of an emotional pillar… Although it's just an idea, if you don't like my idea you don't need to listen to me…"

… How cute.

"Wow, she is the example of why you shouldn't bully the shy in the classroom" – BB had a big smile.

"The number of lunatics keeps increasing…" – Tsubaki sighed with disappointment.

I walked over to Daedalus and stroked the adorable woman's cheek. – "Never be afraid to express your opinion, I love your perspective"

I thought of some similar methods, but the fact that she is able to come up with a plan like this is fascinating to me as she comes across as a depressed and shy woman who would rather run away than fight.

The contrast between an innocent appearance and hidden calculating nature is very comforting.

"..." - Daedalus blushed. – "I am n-not creative, it is just that I was forced to come up with unconventional plans when my world was invaded by Paradise… My Concept of Innovation also helps me to see multiple perspectives at the same time, although I do not like to use my abilities to make plans since I am a scientist, not a strategist…"

I smiled with genuine appreciation. – "If you want to focus on your research don't worry, but whenever you have an idea don't hesitate to talk"

Daedalus was a little happy at my words, but she has a strong inferiority complex. – "B-But… What happens if I make a mistake and an accident happens because of me?"

Seeing the fall of her world left her with a strong trauma and her self-esteem is almost non-existent.

"Learning from mistakes is part of innovation" - I smiled gently. – "Also, I have already followed BB and Navi's ideas, nothing can be worse than that"

"You are cruel senpai! I only want the best for your wild sex life that only serves to satisfy the sick fantasies of otakus without a girlfriend!" – BB pretended to cry.

"Hey Listen! Thanks to me you got a Mary Sue in your harem, you stupid ungrateful lolicon!" – Navi shouted with joy.

"If even an idiot like Navi has freedom of expression then you shouldn't worry about your ideas" – I kissed Daedalus's forehead. – "You are my wife so I want to hear all your ideas"

Daedalus smiled and hugged me.

[Notification System: BB-chan has died of diabetes]

… Whatever.

I kept hugging Daedalus and looked at System Goddess who was still looking at Tang Xiu with a complex expression. – "What would you like us to do?"

"I don't know" – System Goddess sighed. – "I am surprised that I still have a trace of empathy and a part of my heart does not want to see my teacher die since he protected me from various sects that wanted to use me as a cauldron for dual cultivation, besides, I don't want to hurt the heart of the one who was like my sister... But at the same time I want to refine his soul to make a heavenly pill..."

A mad scientist with a moral conflict, you don't see that every day.

"We can follow the idea of Daedalus and manipulate his mind, then we can set the stage where an Outer God is causing chaos, and if in the end you choose to let your teacher live, then we can let him live in peace as an ordinary person without cultivation" - I smiled slightly.

System Goddess sighed and shook her head. – "My teacher will choose to die rather than become an ordinary person, but maybe there is another option… Your skill to see the secrets of reality and the flow of destiny found the reincarnation of my teacher's wife so we can use it in our favor, maybe I can convince my teacher to be our ally and if things fail, I can make Yan'er join us after losing her love for our teacher…"

My wives are lovely.

"I feel like I'm in a psycho club" – Nyaruko smiled bitterly.

"The otaku says that she destroyed a world just because she didn't like that the protagonist received netorare" – BB rolled her eyes.

"Hey, the destruction of that world was justified! All the waifus were desecrated by blonde-haired, delinquent-looking asshole fuckboys!" – Nyaruko yelled angrily, then smiled at me with embarrassment. - "I don't want to offend you"

"It doesn't bother me" - I shrugged.

"The title of the novel literally implies NTR, it was obvious that the waifus would be desecrated" – BB sneered. – "Besides, you don't believe my nonsense about fiction so you destroyed a world just because you read a novel with a similar name to the world, you're crazier than me~"

"Ugh, I thought it would just be netori, I didn't imagine the author would add netorare and netorase…" - Nyaruko sighed in disgust.

"Forget that stupidity, you already destroyed NT0 Crus0 so there's no point in thinking about it anymore" – BB rolled her eyes.

"You're right, it's better to forget it" – Nyaruko sighed and ate a cookie.

How come these conversations always get random and stupid?

Whatever.

"Then let's get things ready" - I sighed. – "I will notify Mr. Ichijo that something strange is happening in China so that the Ichijo family can prepare for the political disaster that is about to occur… I also want to see how strong the Masters and Servants of Chaldea are since Alaya seems to favor them too much"

"Alaya..." - Kon, who usually remains silent and calm, had a terrifying expression.

"Be patient" - I smiled at Senko's ancestor. – "For now finish healing your daughters, they should recover in a couple of weeks"

Kon nodded, though the hatred in her eyes didn't lessen.

By the way, now Kon stays most of the time in her female form so I can't consider her my pet anymore and she is now a part of my harem… I feel weird saying it.

(Author's Note: Kon's appearance based on Hagoromo Gitsune from the anime Nurarihyon no Mago)

Anyway, I've resigned myself to the fact that at least two-thirds of China will be destroyed by both my actions and the Lostbelt...

The human world may survive, but most of the sects will perish as Koyanskaya plans to bribe various cultivators to join this conflict.

Just as Japan has Shinto gods as Guardians, China has deities like Buddha, Jade Emperor, Nezha, Chang'e, etc.

Not all of the gods are alive as some died during Alaya's rebellion, but the survivors are loyal to Alaya so they are a hindrance to the Lostbelt.

This is where cultivators are important.

Cultivators are innate enemies of deities as a deity represents the control and stability of the Laws of a World, on the other hand, cultivators seek to break through the Laws to break through all limitations.

In mentality, a deity is [Anti-Rasen] and a cultivator is [Rasen], polar opposites.

Although cultivators seek to break the Laws, the Will of a World does not seek to destroy them as they are the best cannon fodder to face invaders from other worlds since the death of a deity affects the stability of the Laws, but the death of a cultivator is irrelevant.

Alaya keeps tight control over the cultivators and I even heard that they have various pocket dimensions where they are allowed to do stupid things as long as they don't harm the human world.

Koyanskaya seeks to recruit some ambitious cultivators to hinder China's deities in order to facilitate the expansion of the Lostbelt.

Not all cultivators are complete jerks and some will notice that there is something fishy about this, but Beast VII gave several valuable materials to Koyanskaya which will be enough to bribe the patriarchs of various sects.

Best of all, the most ambitious is the orthodox sects while the demonic sects are the most difficult to convince since they refuse to be slaves.

This hypocrisy is so absurd that I can only laugh.

I'm sure Koyanskaya will be able to convince various sects which will cause a war between cultivators and deities.

Now the question is who am I going to support…

Normally Heroes have a knack for befriending deities so Lu Su (Luis) can help gods while Harem King helps cultivators.

Then both of them will fight each other and obviously, the Harem King will win the fight, but if Luis shows the ability to hurt a system user then it will be enough to give me fame.

To prevent the Harem King from being seen as a complete threat that must be eradicated, I can take advantage of the innate stupidity of system users.

It is well known that system users are impulsive and solve most of their problems with violence without using their brains so after the battle I can make it look like Harem King was fooled through flattery and beautiful women, but with the help of Luis, he managed to reconsider and now fights to protect this World while forming a friendship with the Hero.

That may cause problems with Mr. Ichijo since the Ichijo family is the main enemy of system users within Gaia, but I'm sure I can convince him that this can benefit us.

On the other hand, this news will spread and Seraph will hear that I made friends with a system user which will make her angry, but she showed to be very intelligent so you will be able to see the benefits of this.

Teamwork between a powerful Hero and a system user capable of taking on Outer Gods can make for a powerful duo which will be very beneficial in supporting Auriel, though, I will have to be careful as being too talented is a double-edged sword as enemies will increase due to conflicts of interest, jealousy, and other stupid reasons.

Great, now I'm referring to Luis in the third person, I definitely have an identity disorder.

I hope this is not hereditary...

[System Notification: The skill 'Paranoia' says that heredity is a risk factor in mental disorders]

I know, damn it.
