It was too intense, way too intense.
Chi Xue had just expressed her discontent right in front of Western Mother Empress's face, flagrantly revealing her dangerous ambition without any veneers or flowery words!
If Western Mother Empress wanted, Chi Xue could be killed with just the snap of a finger!
It was rather tensed inside of Chi Xue's palace.
Zhong Yue had been holding a tensed heart, he was concerned of Chi Xue's safety.
After the death of the other heiresses, the loss of the Peaches of Immortality and the Mother Empress's impending death, it was true that Chi Xue was now the only choice that the Western Mother Empire had to succeed the throne, but…
This was the Western Mother Empress they were talking about!
The overlord that command the entire Kun Lun Realm!
No one in Kun Lun dared to defy her words, and no one dared to go against her. This was not to mention threatening her!
For an existence such as her, the Western Mother Empress's emotions were unpredictable. Even though Chi Xue might seem to have the upper hand now, she was, in fact, in a more precarious position than ever!
Every word that came out of her mouth could potentially cause the empress to lash out. She was venting out all of her dissatisfaction and disappointment at the empress. Zhong Yue knew it very well in his heart, after all, it was he who killed everyone that Chi Xue was claiming to have killed!
He was even the main architect of Shang Qing's death!
For Chi Xue to take all the responsibility of his actions onto herself could only mean that she wanted to protect Zhong Yue or trigger a reaction from the Western Mother Empress!
She wanted to be acknowledged by the empress; she had cultivated hard, doing everything she could just so she could further increase her cultivation base. She had become the most prominent star of the whole Western Mother Celestial Race, even opening the sixth secret realm, achieving what not even her their ancestors could.
Yet, what she got from the empress she respected most were qualms and reservations. She felt wronged but continued to try her best to earn her acknowledgment. She entered the Returning Ruins and sought to bring the best Peaches of Immortality back to her empress.
But the series of events inside of the Returning Ruins had caused her bottled up emotions to spiral out of control, and somewhen in the Returning Ruins, hatred began to burgeon in the deepest parts of her heart, only growing stronger with every event that had recently transpired.
The palace then turned quiet and oppressive as how it was seconds ago.
After a long time, Western Mother Empress finally broke the oppressing silence, she sighed and said, "You have still said out your heart. You are more talented, stronger, and better; no matter in what aspects, you are stronger than everyone else and that you are the rightfully the best heiresses to the throne. But do you know why I chose them but not you?"
Chi Xue nodded puzzingly, emotions started to falter from her eyes and she slowly regained her usual composure.
Western Mother Empress said placidly, "Because I want to live again, I still want to be the Western Mother Empress when I resurrect."
Chi Xue was startled and so was Zhong Yue, this was an answer completely out of their expectations.
Western Mother Empress continued, "Be it Qing'er, Yun'er or Yue'er, none of them were the best candidate to be the next Western Mother Empress. Even Shang Qing wasn't considered as the best. Although he was the Moon Innate Spirit Body and had the Twin Spirits, his prowess was on par with yours, but his temperament was lacking. Hesitation and indecision always held him down. He takes way too many things into considerations and was too weak to make a decision when it was needed. He is not fit to be a ruler at all.
"But you are different — decisive, smart, intelligent, and calm. You can come out with many solutions even in the most perilous situation and make the best decision out of the limited choices. In addition to your incredible talents, you will make a great empress. But at the same time, you are the biggest obstacle to reclaiming the throne.
"Because you are too remarkable, you as an empress, will never give me even with a chance to revive. When the throne is passed into your hands, you will be the greatest empress in the history of the whole Western Mother Empire. I will never able to reclaim the throne from your hands and the best outcome I can have is to act as a guardian spirit to the Western Mother Empire. That's why, I won't pass the throne to you."
Chi Xue was completely stunned, she mumbled, "But you are an existence who is even listed in the Legendary Board, while I'm only in the sixth place of the Godlike Board. If you are to revive into a second life, I won't be possibly be of your match…"
The empress then shook her head and answered, "How old was I back then and how old are you now? The Legendary Board is already the limit to my potential but you are still young, your potential is yet to come to a limit. You can still climb, till one day, you will be stronger than my peak days.
"But the main reason is the sixth secret realm you have opened. The opening of the sixth secret realm will connect the mortal body and Yuan Shen together, allowing the two to share a balanced lifespan. I'm only ten thousand years of age and death is already upon me. But with the sixth secret ream, you can live for at least 50,000 years. If I want to revive into a second life and become the empress again, I will have to wait for when the death arrives at your doorstep. But that is too long, far too long for me; by then, even my spirit would have dispersed into thin air already. But if I chose Shang Qing, Chi Qing, or anyone else, I can easily take back my throne in the snap of a finger at anytime I desire so."
Western Mother Empress breathed a long sigh, she said, "But I can't if the throne is in your hands. Fifty thousand years of time, it is more than enough for you to surpass my achievements as a cultivator, as well as an empress! Thus, this is why I will never choose you."
Chi Xue raised her brows, and a bitter smile spread across her face as she said, "Are you explaining all of this to me so that I can die in peace?"
Western Mother Empress had explained everything to Chi Xue, which could only mean that she intended to kill Chi Xue!
As soon as Western Mother Empress started explaining, Chi Xue knew very well of her end already.
However, Western Mother Empress suddenly shook her head and said, "No, I will not. Because you are right, I have no other options left, you've killed every potential competitor and shortened my time. If I kill you today, the Western Mother Empire will collapse right after my death. Every single effort our ancestors have poured in to build this empire will be taken to ground overnight. So, from today onwards, I will take you under me and teach you the way of how an empress should act and behave. You will be nurtured as the next Western Mother Empress. After all, I have no other options left."
Chi Xue was quiet, she didn't know what to say nor how to react.
"Now, I've just taught you your first lesson as the Western Mother Empress." Western Mother Empress turned around and walked toward the palace door as she said in her usual placid, hoary tone, "As the Western Mother Empress, you can have all the wild ambitions and greed you want, you can kill your sisters who eyed your throne; you can kill your daughters, your descendants and anyone else, but these can only be your second priority. Your first priority shall always be the Western Mother Celestial Race! The purity of the royal family is the most important and every other thing else can only be placed behind it!"
Chi Xue's heart shuddered violently, even Zhong Yue who was at the back palace was stunned.
Zhong Yue walked out of the shadow after the empress left and he asked softly to Chi Xue, "You've really eaten the Peaches of Immortality?"
Chi Xue nodded in conformation as she answered, "If I don't, then I would be dead already."
Zhong Yue nodded silently. The conversation between the Western Mother Empress and the heiress to the throne had clearly shown the Western Mother Empress's ruthlessness. If there was a second option, she wouldn't ever allow Chi Xue to live and would surely kill her at all cost.
The empress's second option was robbed from her when Chi Xue ate the Peaches of Immortality.
The words Chi Xue told Western Mother Empress, she wasn't purely letting go of her resentment, she was also threatening the empress as well, telling the empress there is only one choice she can make!
Western Mother Empress wasn't wrong after all, Chi Xue was ambition.
Zhong Yue looked at her. The Chi Xue he was looking at now felt different to before. He now saw a leader's air in her, a great empress to the empire and a majestic air that separated her from everyone and everything else!
He knew that the young lady's majestic air would grow stronger and thicker until one day, her connection to the mortal dust would be severed as she completely donned her imperial aura.
Maybe, the closest their hearts could get was when they were both on the little star and the moon palace.
The time they spent together, the pleasure they have given to one another, the comfort and warmth they shared....
But those days were gone, and from today onward, they would steer further and further away from one another while leaving a deep mark in each other's memories as they moved on with their own lives.
"Big Brother Yue, keep this golden tablet and the incense stick." Chi Xue recollected herself, she turned around and handed the two items to him with a smile, "These two items connect the Ancestral Star and Kun Lun together. The golden tablet transports you back to Ancestral Star while the incense stick brings you back to Kun Lun."
Zhong Yue kept the golden tablet and incense stick while Chi Xue asked, "When will you leave?"
"As soon as possible." Rays flashed across Zhong Yue's eyes as he said, "Peng Qianqiu and Kua Fuding survived the events and there is no doubt that they will expose everything I've done both in the Returning Ruins and the rocky planet. It is no longer safe for me here. After I leave, I need you to do one thing for me. Spread word that both of them have acquired the Peaches of Immortality, let the whole of Kun Lun know."
Chi Xue nodded, this was to divert the public's attention.
Zhong Yue had slaughtered too many experts in the Returning Ruins and the rocky planet. Every expert that died in his hands was backed by a god, and with him killing so many of the gods' disciples, not even the whole Swords Gate would be able to stand a chance in the face of the many gods.
Spreading the word out and directing the public's attention to Kua Fuding and Peng Qianqiu first would be able to keep the two of them busy.
With the news stating that they had the Peaches of Immortality, regardless of the truth, the public would still be attracted by them and the bigger factions would surely hunt for them.
As for how many would believe it, that was something they couldn't guess.
When she heard him saying that he would leave now, Chi Xue's heart filled reluctance. But it wasn't long before she cleared these emotions away from her mind.
She then asked softly, "I'll send you back?"
"It's alright," Zhong Yue walked out to Chi Xue's palace door, he raised his head up and looked at the starry sky before the young man surged his arcane energy into the golden tablet.
A golden door emerged out of thin air, and on the other side of the door, was linked to the snowy mountain in Western Barren.
On the other end, it was still day while here in Kun Lun, it was already night time.
Zhong Yue turned his head back and saw the young heroine, Chi Xue, standing a distance away from him; she was looking at him as well.
Zhong Yue nodded and he walked toward the door.
"Why don't you stay?" The young lady's voice came from behind, she smiled brightly and her clear white tiger teeth lent a certain purity to her heroic aura, "Don't go, stay with me! I need you by my side when I become the empress, I can give you the title of Eastern Father Emperor!"
"The Eastern Father Emperor isn't a title that can be given by a piece of paper." Zhong Yue waved his hand without even turning his head back, he smiled and answered, "You have your own race and I have mine, you can't follow me, and nor can I follow you."
"You will still come back, right? We can still be together?" The young lady shouted at him from the outside.
On the other side of the door, Zhong Yue has hesitated.
He looked through the door into the skies of Kun Lun. In the starry space, there was a total of twenty-eight mansions, and they were divided into four constellations. There was a mansion called Shen in the White Tiger of the West Constellation and a mansion called Shang in the Azure Dragon of the East Constellation. These two stars rose and fell in duality; when one rose, the other fell. Just like Kun Lun and Ancestral Star, when one was day, the other was night.
The Eastern Father Emperor was like the Azure Dragon of the East, and the Western Mother Empress was the White Tiger of the West. The dragon and tiger might have been in the river of love together, but the two were fated to be apart in the end. The tiger wouldn't accept it nor would the dragon.
Exactly like Chi Xue and Zhong Yue's hearts, they were like the Shen and Shang, they were both connected together but far apart from one another as well.
You are the Western Mother Empress, and I'm the Eastern Father Emperor…, Zhong Yue wove his hand as he strode further to the other side of the door, You and I, are the Shen and Shang…

Synopsis
In the world birthed by Pangu, the Three Sovereigns lit the spark of humanity that the Five Emperors would later fan into a blazing fire, eternally branding humanity as the leaders of the world….
This was a time where twilight had descended on the reign of the Human Sovereign and the Five Emperors had yet to emerge – humanity was merely one of the myriad races wandering about the vast cosmos.
This was a desolate and barren era. The monsters, devils, heavenly gods, and deities of all races stood aloft; with the demons, heavenly souls, and spirits dancing freely around the world.
The humans were still a feeble and burgeoning race at the mercy of the pantheon of races that ruled the world together from within the great wilderness.
This was not the era of the Foreworld, but the barbaric and untamed era of uncivilization!
Let us rewind back to China’s ancient and classical mythology and recount the legendary tale of how a single figure led humanity out of an epoch of darkness and into a new dawn.
“Why do I seem like a monster? It’s not that my heart longs for blood, but the indifferent reality, and the harsh truth ... that drives me to kill.”
— Zhong Yue

Things You Should Know
Honestly, judging from the title itself, one’s initial impression would be that the story is simply another boring and cliche cultivation novel. Or at least, that was what I thought at first when I was first introduced to this novel by a friend. But to my surprise, and most likely to yours, (if you read it, that is ...) you will soon come to realize that the plot gets very interesting, involving many characters from the ancient and primeval eras of Chinese mythology.
Every story has their own charms, and every character has their own tale to tell. And this, is the tale of a young man fighting not for himself, but for the betterment of humanity. The plot starts to get really good at around chapter 50-ish, and that’s when the roller coaster starts to rise higher and higher to never come down again (literally, it ended in a climax).

Sir Ditty mumbled something under his breath, and directed a question at Ye Ci, "What do you think Fleeting Time is doing?"

Ye Ci knew that Sir Ditty would not ask such a question out of the blue. He must've already had an answer of his own. She pursed her lips and replied, "You know the answer to the question, why are you still asking?"

"I need a second opinion. I want to know if I'm right." Sir Ditty smiled. He had always been a cautious person. In a time like this, even Sir Ditty would not dare to make a decision based on his personal assumption.

"He's going to go kite the Archbishop." that was the only answer Ye Ci could think of.

After a brief pause, Sir Ditty let out a long sigh, "Be careful, that place is definitely surrounded by Western Continent players by now. Don't die in there! I need you to delay them as long as possible and buy us some time."

"I'll be on my way." Ye Ci grinned. She enjoyed talking with people with intellect. Such conversation was simple, brief, and straight to the point.

After concluding her conversation with Sir Ditty, Ye Ci jumped down from Ol' Four and dashed through the tightly packed streets to the direction of the Monastery.

Knowing that Sir Ditty would have spoken to Bai Mo, she did not worry about her cousin. Her main concern at the moment was to figure a way out to sneak past the many Western Continent players into the Monastery.

After giving the matter a long thought, Ye Ci decided to sneak into the Monastery through the rooftops. Although the Western Continent players would put the rooftops under heavy guard after her battle with Fleeting Time, but with waves after waves of Eastern Continent players rushing their positions, they would be forced to divert men to the defence on the ground.With that, Ye Ci would be able to sneak safely into the Monastery within minutes.

Despite the dangers, victory always favors those who were able to surprise their opponents. Without any shred of hesitation, Ye Ci climbed onto the rooftops and lowered herself. She the dashed towards to Monastery.

With the impending attack from invaders, the Monastery is on full alert. Before reinforcements from the Royal Army could arrive at the Monastery, the monks and priests prepared themselves for combat. There was nearly 300 monks and priests in the Monastery, with levels ranging from 40 to 50. Priests were good in attacking while monks were adept at healing. Despite the lack of thanks, such combination of NPCs were very effective in combat. Despite their level advantages, the NPCs were barely able to stem the tide against the numerical superiority of the Western Continent players. As Ye Ci entered the Monastery through its eastern entrance, the NPCs of the Monastery were barely holding the invaders back.

Only the northern roof of the Royal Monastery was the only spot without a foothold. There was also sentries lurking around the northern side, which meant that there were relatively less Western Continent players would seek to enter the Monastery from the north. Without hesitating, Ye Ci entered Stealth and approached the northern side of the Monastery. Entering Stealth would impose a 50% reduced bonus speed on Ye Ci, but it was the only way to sneak in undetected in the midst of so many enemies.

Making her best effort to avoid the staging areas of the Western Continent's Rogues and Rangers, Ye Ci arrived at the northern side of the Royal Monastery. She could see priests and monks shouting out their devotion to God with their dying breath and Western Continent players that were marching steadily forward. As expected of elite players. Only God knows how long they been training for this day. The quality of Eastern Continent players paled in comparison when compared to such an organized force. Their only solution to defeat such an enemy it seems, was the employment of human wave tactics. (USSR did it quite successfully against the Third Reich no?)

However, there were times when using a human wave tactic proved to be the best solution in a battle, and the waves of Western Continent players swarming over and overwhelming the NPCs within the Monastery was the perfect example.

Ye Ci then slipped into the Monastery itself through its western entrance. It was relatively safe within the building. Any Western Continent Rogues and Ranger who had managed to slip in were swiftly dealt with by the guards stationed in the sacred hall.

"Gongzi, are you in the Monastery?" Ye Ci received a message from Sir Ditty right after leaving Stealth, and couldn't help but wonder if the person had installed a tracking device on her. How did he track her movements so well?

"I just got here."

"How's it going inside?"

"Nothing out of the ordinary. There are still enemy Rogues, Rangers and Hunters lurking around despite the soldiers and priests stationed within the Sacred Hall. They pose no real threat, but the area is not exactly entirely safe." Ye Ci offered a brief overview of the situation. Judging from the amount of Western Continent corpses lying around, quite a number of enemy players had entered the Sacred Hall, but were defeated by the guards.

But how long could their defense last?

"I've sent a strike team your way. They'll provide support and help you with the Western Continent players that have managed to sneak into the Monastery. Go take Fleeting Time out."

"Roger that."

Ye Ci was impressed by Sir Ditty's (something like meticulous planning). He was able to handle everything within the shortest amount of time without prior preparation in such a chaotic situation. It was not something that everybody could achieve. That was why Wolf Pack has become the top guild in the Eastern Continent under his leadership.

"Gongzi You, where are you?" Ye Ci received a private message from an unfamiliar player, "I'm Five Petaled Flower, the leader of the strike team Sir Ditty sent to help you."

"I'm at the entrance of the north side sacred hall. Be careful, there are a lot of Rogues and Rangers lurking around." casting a final glance at the corpses littering the ground, Ye Ci once again entered Stealth.

"Alright, we're at the northern gate, we're heading your way now." replied Five Petaled Flower. After a short moment, Ye Ci could see 20 blurry figures heading her way.

Players from the same faction could see each other despite being in Stealth. They could make out the blurry outlines of friendly players and could accurately determine their movements that were otherwise invisible to hostile players. That was why Western Continent players were able to slip into the sacred hall.

"We'll protect the statue in the sacred hold. Leave this place to us." Five Petaled Flower walked up to her and spoke to her softly.

Ye Ci could see the blurry face of the player. It was not a face that could be easily remembered. Ye Ci knew that a person like this was best suited to be a Rogue. A good Rogue would not have a face that could easily be imprinted in one's memory. If a girl was to have such a plain look, it might be a bad thing for her. For a Rogue however, it was the best possible outcome.

Five Petaled Flower was the best Rogue in Wolf Pack, and was best of all the Eastern Continent as well.

Ye Ci nodded her head. The person was dependable, "Alright. I'll be heading to the Archbishop."

"Got it." Five Petaled Flower nodded. The two did not know each other, but the mutual understanding between them was as if they were best friends for years.

As she made her way to the Archbishop's chamber, Ye Ci encountered an acquaintance of her: Lazy Blue. She did not expect him to be the strike team at all. Despite their past feuds, Lazy Blue acted calmly, as if they have never met before. He even spoke in a low voice as he walked past Ye Ci, "Don't you dare die before you defeat him. Don't shame our continent, or I'll be hunting you to the world's end."

The corners of Ye Ci's mouth twitched. At a time like this, this guy was not at all obnoxious.

"Take good care of yourself. If the statue is destroyed, I'll be coming after you." it was not Ye Ci's nature to lose in a trash talk.

Despite the rather empty Monastery, and the lack of presence of monks and priests in the hallways, Ye Ci knew that she was in the heart of the Monastery, and not many Western Continent players could easily enter the area. She immediately left Stealth and dashed towards the Archbishop's chamber.

The Archbishop's chamber was very close to the main entrance but was heavily guarded. It was not an easy task to break into the place to confront the Archbishop.

Ye Ci heard the Archbishop's roar as she approached the chamber, "Foolish heathen! How did you enter my chamber? I shall cleanse your soul! I shall make you a sacrifice to God!"

There was only one reason that will cause the Archbishop to go into such a rage: There was a Western Continent player had infiltrated his room. Ye Ci knew full well who the player was. She pushed the doors open without hesitation and rushed into the room.

Her appearance attracted the attention of the Archbishop and Fleeting Time as well. The latter was momentarily stunned before letting out a faint smile. He knew Gongzi You will never allow him to have his way and would definitely appear. What he did not expect, however, was the fact that she had arrived so soon. It was not even 3 minutes since he had snuck all the way into the Archbishop's chamber using Stealth and he had not even build up an aggro from the Archbishop yet.

Despite that, he could not hold back the urge to greet the Huntress with a frosty expression on her face, "Hey Gongzi You, we meet again!"

Ye Ci stared coldly at him and snorted, "Exactly, we meet again…" putting emphasis on the word "again" to show her displeasure.

"Now it may be that even though our sect has lost its border we will be prepared for the invasion of the Western Sea Sect, I don't expect them to imagine that our sect would react that quickly."
"I will prepare some deacons and go to the frontier as soon as possible to stop the invasion of the Western Sea Sect, then the other deacons and disciples can move more calmly to prepare for a long war."
Elder Du was very annoyed by all this, but as an experienced and responsible Sword Sect elder in this territory he knew what the best plan for the sect was now, he would have to wait for some deacons to prepare before he went and had to warn him the sect in the stronger territories for a possible request for reinforcement.
"You are right, elder Du, the situation may turn into a war, but our sect cannot hurry at this point, I think it is best for the elder to prepare things together with the sect using his experience and then all deacons and disciples to go along with you to the border."
"You do not understand Zhang Yi, the situation is urgent, as we prepare they should already be prepared, if our border territory is taken and well prepared by them, it can become something that causes the defeat of our sect, so I have to go quickly and avoid that."
"No need to worry about it elder Du, I killed the Western Sea Sect people who invaded our territory and used the earth element and wood element laws to make our facilities useless to them, in a few weeks they can't do it anything."
So Elder Du understood why Zhang Yi was so calm and was surprised that he did all this so quickly, so Western Sea Sect lost the advantage they had gained and Sword Sect would have time to prepare for war.
"Thank you for doing this, Zhang Yi, if our sect wins this war you will be primarily responsible for it."
"I'm sure we'll win this war, elder Du."
"Hahaha, I think so too."
Even though he knew that the anger of Elder Du of Western Sea Sect was no longer in such danger, he also knew that even if Zhang Yi had gained some time for them, the enemies should already be ready for war and could begin to invade the Sword Sect territory at any time.
So he gathered the sect deacons for an important meeting, Zhang Yi refused to attend that meeting because he was not interested in drawing more attention to the sect, at the meeting elder Du said the sect would no longer have the tournament this year and everyone they would have to prepare for war.
The deacons were as angry as he was when they learned what Western Sea Sect had done, but just as Elder Du thought they knew it was not unexpected, and Sword Sect hoped something like this could happen.
The deacons were glad to hear that Zhang Yi had found out about the situation quickly and was able to gain time for the sect to prepare before the war, after which the sect began to prepare for war while elder Du went to warn the sect of the more strong territories about what was happening.
When the Western Sea Sect discovered that they had lost the territory they had just conquered at the border and lost all the deacons they had been there for several days, the stronger deacons were more irritated with this and cautious about the situation.
After all, they didn't expect Sword Sect to act that quickly and make the place where they had taken utterly useless, common sense told emptiness realm deacons that several Sword Sect deacons came here and so they would have to act correctly before attacking the Sword Sect correctly.
Elder Du was certain that the Western Sea Sect had been prepared for this war sometimes, but it would still take some time for them to fully prepare for a long war between the sects.
Fortunately, Western Sea Sect in the stronger territories had ordered them to attack Sword Sect, so they would send reinforcement to Western Sea Sect faster than Sword Sect.
They could not send anyone into the emperor's realm because of rules between the sects in the strongest territories, but they could send some warriors of Elder Du's rank to Western Sea Sect to have a greater advantage in this war.
Unfortunately, that was another mistake Western Sea Sect had made at this year's Sword Sect tournament in the weaker territories, Sword Sect was already preparing to send some elders of the same level as elder Du to pick some better disciples and meet personally Zhang Yi.
So when Elder Du warned of the situation Sword Sect from the stronger territories could quickly send several elders to Sword Sect who were already prepared for this trip, it could be said that it was because of Zhang Yi that the whole Western Sea Sect plan was going wrong.
Few in the sect knew that Zhang Yi had the strength to fight various high-level soul-refinement realm warriors, so Zhang Yi was like a normal disciple resting in the house that was prepared for him.
The other disciples were already talking about the war that the sect would soon face, the disciples who were going to participate in the tournament to go to the sect's stronger territories were even angrier than the others for missing out on this opportunity because of the Western Sea Sect.
They were all from the realm of soul refinement just as sect deacons would then be very important in this war, they also knew that some elders of sects in the strongest territories would participate in this war, so if they performed well they would be chosen for the sect in the strongest territories.
Zhang Yi was least concerned about it and was in his mental energy world with his wives, Zhang Yi knew he could not perform very well in this war because many would-be watching and they could just fight the realm birth soul warriors.
After a few weeks, Sword Sect was fully prepared for war, as Western Sea Sect saw that Sword Sect was already preparing for war, so they decided not to attack and expect reinforcements and have an open war against Sword Sect.
Sword Sect did not lose much losing its border territory because nearly the same number of deacons who died from their sect were also killed by Zhang Yi on the Western Sea Sect side when he discovered the invasion.
Western Sea Sect could only count on how quickly reinforcements from the stronger territories would come because until then they would be at a disadvantage in this war.


Follow the story of how Zhang Yi who was forced to leave his family and go to a war that only awaited his death, but his destiny changed and his masters appeared to give him a second chance that he had a divine body, divine talent for mental energy, divine talent for body refinement, follow in the footsteps of the man who went from a carp to a dragon and will dominate the world.

After a flash, the Dark Dragon reappeared.
"What is this place?" Wang Hao looked out of the window with no idea where they were.
Ling Ling opened the map of the Universal Federation and marked their position.
"This is the western Universal Federation." Qian Wanyang frowned at the map. "The nearest planet to us is the No. 3 school of Western Brilliance University."
"The No. 3 school of Western Brilliance University?" Wang Hao thought for a moment and said, "If I remember correctly, Zhuo Chao is in the No. 3 school of Western Brilliance University."
Le Xuan and Xia Weiwei held their foreheads and sighed, knowing that the No. 3 school of Western Brilliance University would suffer.
"Who's Zhuo Chao?" asked Qian Wanyang curiously.
Wang Hao chuckled. "He's a rich guy. My level-three mecha wolf was a gift from him."
"Is someone from his family in the Military Department?" Chen Yao furrowed his brow.
"His father is a major general on Earth. But his father is a civilian and did not graduate from the Royal Academy. I think he'll be promoted as a lieutenant general at best in his life," said Xia Weiwei.
Everybody else nodded.
The leadership of the Military Department were all the nobles from the Royal Academy. The civilians without backgrounds could only be promoted to lieutenant general at best.
Not everybody was as fortunate as Wang Hao's father, who seized the opportunity that was actually meant for Guan Jieying.
"Boss, will we cause any misunderstandings if we visit the No. 3 school of Western Brilliance University unannounced?" asked Qian Wanyang worriedly. They were from a different college anyway, and this might be viewed as a provocation.
"Misunderstandings will be fine. Anyway, my target is very clear, which is to swindle Western Brilliance University and install a main gun on this spaceship." Wang Hao laughed and returned to his room, ready to upgrade himself.
Everybody's lips twitched. This evil merchant was exploiting not only the infected people but also the poor students. He was truly a scumbag!
…
On a rather decrepit planet, Xi Rongxuan led Lin Tingbai to a cave.
"Xi Rongxuan, you're rather brazen to come back!" said someone in a low voice from the cave.
"Boss, the whole thing about the space gem was really an accident." Xi Rongxuan hurried to explain. "But I've brought back two pieces of important intelligence."
"I don't care if it's an accident. I can only tell you that the Devil Lord went to Tianming in person."
"The Devil Lord went to Tianming in person…" Xi Rongxuan sweated hard, knowing that he was in major trouble.
"Tell me your important intelligence. If it's true, I'll say something nice for you in front of the Devil Lord."
"Yes, sir…" Xi Rongxuan calmed himself down and said, "I chanced upon a brand new rabbit species which had an alternate dimension. It's now in Wang Hao's possession."
"A new species?" exclaimed the man in the cave. With a strong breeze, an old man with wrinkles all over his face walked out with a crutch.
"Huh, not bad. It's indeed important. What's the other piece of intelligence?" asked the old man.
"Hu…" Relieved, Xi Rongxuan continued, "It's about Wang Hao. He took out a cure for the zombie virus the moment he came to Tianming. I suspect that it's a cure for all zombie viruses."
Shocked, the old man grabbed Xi Rongxuan's collar and said coldly, "Are you sure that he took out a cure the moment he arrived at Tianming, not that he created one after he studied the zombie virus?"
"He presented a cure the moment he reached Tianming. I saw it in person…" said Lin Tingbai in fright.
The old man loosened Xi Rongxuan and glanced at Lin Tingbai. Then he said, "Off you go! I'll say something for you to the Devil Lord, but remember, you will die miserably if you are insubordinate again." 
"Yes, sir!" Xi Rongxuan nodded quickly and backed off with Lin Tingbai.
"Wang Hao!" the old man mumbled. "The best genius of the Guild of Pharmacists and Empyrean North University… Su Mu has done many things for him recently, but why can't I find any files on Wang Hao's childhood? Does he have other secrets?"
…
On the Dark Dragon, Wang Hao sat cross-legged in his room and practiced the Glorious Demon Art. His face was tranquil.
Suddenly, Wang Hao's body trembled, and a dull noise burst from within, followed by an unstoppable aura.
The spiritual energy that condensed in his abdomen crashed into one of his veins precisely, and his spiritual energy flooded to every corner of his body.
The four veins in his body that had been broken were filled with abundant spiritual energy. At this moment, Wang Hao became a level-four Martial Master.
"Phew…"
A long time later, Wang Hao opened his eyes and sighed in relief.
When Wang Hao left his room, he discovered that the spaceship had been docked on a planet.
The place looked no different from the No. 11 school of Empyrean North University. He knew that it must be the No. 3 school of Western Brilliance University.
…
At this moment, in the dean's office in the No. 3 school of Western Brilliance University, Li Hao was reading a file that his secretary delivered with a headache.
It was the list of the crew on the spaceship that had just landed. Wang Hao's name was on it.
"Dean Li, are you alright?" asked his secretary concernedly.
"Nobody can be fine after seeing this name!" Li Hao sighed. Wang Hao had left a deep impression on him during the screening test of the Four Focused Colleges.
Wang Hao's talent was certainly remarkable, but his capabilities in troublemaking were even more incomparable.
"Dean Li, if he is such a troublemaker, we can simply ask him to leave," proposed his secretary.
"Ask him to leave? Not a chance." Li Hao shook his head. "Do you know that Wang Hao calls Headmaster Hua Zixu grand-master? Do you dare to ask him to leave, or do you want me to?"
His secretary was shocked. "Really? He's from such a powerful background?"
"It's even more powerful than you think." Li Hao frowned. Nobody told him Wang Hao's identity, but he knew that the four headmasters gathered in the screening test exactly for Wang Hao.
His secretary was stunned. Even more powerful than she thought? How powerful exactly?
"I hope that I'm overthinking, and that Wang Hao is only here to travel…" Li Hao comforted himself, but he still picked up the phone, planning to inform Hua Zixu that Wang Hao had arrived at the No. 3 school…


Waking up from a hangover, Wang Hao finds himself reborn in an alternate world. To his delight, he realizes that he has a system to help him in this new world. However, his system turns out to be a highly unconventional one. Instead of serving justice and winning the respect of other people, Wang Hao has to do all kinds of bad things in order to make use of the system. So, Wang Hao embarks on the journey to being cursed for good…

Chapter-68: Day of result

There are many students was gathering in the groups in front of particular places. The result of the exam was out. 

It was published in the white piece of papers in several places as serial wise. And that's where students were gathering their heads.

Students were noisy and most of them showing a tense atmosphere. Some of them showing happy expression and some of them showing sad expression, they are the individuals who already saw their result.

From one of the groups, a scream was heard by students.

"Eh... Eeeeeeeeh!"

Naruto let out an unbelievable shriek. He was in front of the result board.

"How did this happened?"

Naruto's face was twitching. Because he got a somewhat unexpected result.

In the result board, there are six rows, those are, Serial, Name, Status, Marks, Position, and Rank. Where Naruto's states are-

D19420531-Naruto Uzumaki-Passed-485-5-Gold Core

In another word, he has become number five position student among the freshmen. He knew that the top 7 students will become Golden Core students this year which was announced before the exam. By his rank, it is clear he got the position of Gold Core rank student.

"How troublesome, dattebayo! Jin told me not to be in the top ten or barely the tenth rank... because he want me to not to be in the Gold Core rank."

[Well, it doesn't matter, I did expect that someone in your caliber will gold core even if you don't want to.]

It was Jin who is using telepathy of Yamanaka clan.

[Sorry, Dude.]

Naruto replied.

[Oh well, now you are set up in this academy. I hope the invaders will make their move soon. Be careful of them. I don't know the scale of their strength.]

Jin said.

[I understand, dattebayo.]

Without any wasteful line, Naruto replied him with a serious face. Even though it was forced on to Naruto, he is taking his job seriously. Just because he knows that Jin isn't a bad guy and there is nothing Naruto can do.

Naruto got out from the noisy crowd somehow and started to find Ikuse Ryuuga. 

"Hey, Naruto did you found your result."

Ikuse Ryuuga asked him.

"Yes, I did."

"Oh, what's your rank?"

"It's fifth."

"As expected I should say."

Ikuse wasn't surprised at all hearing Naruto's result because he saw in first hand what Naruto was capable of.

"So, what about you?"

Naruto asked him.

"It is fourth. I think writing test was my all minus point or I would be the first in rank."

Saying that Ikuse dropped his shoulder. Actually, that is true. Except for the writing test, He got full marks in every exam he took part in.

"Well, rank is just number. What is one capable of, it will be proven later with  body and soul, you know?"

Naruto cheered him.

"I know right. I will prove that I am the worthy son of Eastern Dragon King. Hahahahaha...."

While slapping on Naruto's shoulder Ikuse haha'd. [In facebook style (><)]

"It's hurt, dattebayo!"

Naruto complained with a cramped smile.

"So, who do you think can take the first place?"

Naruto asked Ikuse, as he knows the current affairs of the young generation.

"Hmm. If you ask me, I would choose, Spear Goddess."

"Spear Goddess?"

"Ah, she is the daughter of Spear God."

"Hmmm... I have never seen her."

The reason Naruto(Jin) don't know her because Spear God like to stay out of the worldly matters. It is rumored that his origin is a country called Asmodeus but he does not stay in one place. It is also was a rumor until two years ago that he has a child.

"Well, even I also have seen her just once, and that is a day before yesterday."

Ikuse said.

"Whatever, it isn't my concern who she is in the first place."

Naruto brushed his shoulder.

"Say, you are not that curious person, are you? You are not even that happy that you become a Gold Core student... Tell me the truth, who the heck you are?"

This is the first time Ikuse pressed Naruto for his real origin.

"Just an ordinary boy who drugged into the struggle of power."

Naruto replied him with a mysterious vibe as if he was enjoying it.

"In the struggle of power?"

But Ikuse took it seriously and asked more about it with a frown.

"Yes."

Naruto looked at the sky while creating a lonely face and continued,

"This world is not that simple as you think. You don't know who is who. People wearing the skin of innocence while being a real devil."

Of course, there is no way Naruto could quote this on his own, he learned this philosophical word from Jin's memory. But Ikuse's face becoming more and more serious.

"Seems like your childhood wasn't that pleasant."

This time Ikuse touch where it hurts for Naruto,

"Maybe."

Naruto said while taking two steps ahead from Ikuse,

"But you know, I was able to change my cursed childhood into a blessing."

Naruto looked back with a smile,

"Because now, I am not alone. I have so many friends. And I was finally acknowledged by my best friend."

Of course... By his best friend, he meant Sasuke.

"Wow, so who is that best friend?"

"He is not here. As long as I know he is on the Western Dragon Territory."

Ikuse frowned after hearing Western Dragon's name.

"Western Dragon huh?"

"What's the matter?"

Naruto asked him seeing his swing of mood.

"There is two part in this world. The first half is Western Dragon and the second half is the rest of the world. It is still a mystery about how their world works. Even if we want, we can't apply the same thing as them. And that enormous evolution happened when the current King also is known as Divine Emperor enthroned."

Ikuse Ryuuga, as a dragon, he has both admire and jealousy toward Western Dragons. It is just the nature of dragon's who don't want to see someone is superior to them.

"Oh, I am getting off track. I like to meet your best friend by all mean. After all, I am also your new best buddy."

'That guy make himself my best buddy on his own.' Naruto's face was cramped. But told him with a smile.

"Of course, I will. But remember he is rude and moody."

But he didn't forget to complain about Sasuke.

On the verge of death, he activated a certain scroll that he couldn't decipher even researching in many ways.

The name of that scroll is [Record of Naruto Verse].

By using his new gain power his ambition is to revive his destroyed sect and loved ones, and achieve the acknowledgment as the strongest person in the world, his journey began.

*** Remember, I also post this fanfiction on RoyalRoadl.com by the name of nayem58. I will also post there same thing if that novel accepted.

Jessica tried the fresh cabbage and drank the delicious soup. Feeling emotional, she said, "Alright, Elena. I changed my mind. I agree with your point of view. The prejudices that I had against Chinese cuisine were a result of my ignorance.
"This dish has completely changed the way I view Chinese cuisine." 
Elena nodded subtly. "This dish surprised me, too. I know any other Chinese restaurants serve this dish, but very few of them can do it well. 
"Thank you, Lucas. Your explanation of this dish has greatly enhanced its taste. Your deep understanding of delicacies has greatly inspired me as well."
Jia Nuo smiled. "Actually, I don't have that deep of an understanding of delicacies. I only do what I have to, based on the branch manager's instructions and present the details of every dish to the customers." 
Obviously, that was the reason why Lin Canrong had made all the waiters explain the dishes on the menu. 
Apart from the very few connoisseurs who were extremely sensitive to taste, most ordinary people would not be able to tell how much effort chefs put into creating each dish based on its taste alone. 
Instead, most people could only describe delicacies in limited ways: they were either delicious, or fresh, or the like. 
Waiters, who explained the details of each dish to customers at a time like that, could popularize the knowledge and create a certain type of environment and atmosphere for them. A 'common passion' would be formed between them. 
High-end restaurants improved the taste of every dish at all costs. If they did not explain the relevant details to customers, the delicacies would not leave a deep impression in their minds. 
Obviously, Lin Canrong's careful and meticulous planning had all paid off at that moment. 
Elena said, "Lucas, can I ask you more about Chinese and Western cuisines?" 
Jia Nuo pondered for a moment. "I'm afraid I don't know enough to answer your questions, but I can invite the branch manager over." 
Elena: "If it wouldn't interrupt his work, I would really appreciate it!" 
Jia Nuo left the private room and returned a moment later with Lin Canrong in tow. 
Lin Canrong smiled and said, "My surname is Lin, and I am the branch manager of this restaurant. Are both of you satisfied with our food and service?" 
Although Lin Canrong was also learning English, he was old and busy with work. Thus, it was still difficult for him to communicate smoothly with foreigners. 
That was why he had to trouble Jia Nuo to translate his words.
Fortunately, Jia Nuo had worked as a simultaneous interpreter before, and translating Lin Canrong's words for customers was chicken feet to him. 
Elena nodded. "We're very satisfied! This is the most amazing meal I have ever eaten. You pay a lot of attention to the details and hold yourself to high standards for both Chinese and Western cuisine alike. That has left a deep impression on me.
"I'm a gourmet enthusiast, and I've always been confused about something that I want to clarify with you, Branch Manager Lin. I wonder if you can help to resolve my confusion."
Lin Canrong replied humbly, "I wouldn't dare to say that I can help to resolve your confusion, but I would be happy to discuss my views." 
Elena asked, "The taste of food is intensifying now, and many dishes are made so that one can no longer taste the original ingredients. I wonder what you think about that, Branch Manager Lin." 
After some consideration, Lin Canrong said, "That is indeed a trend in the world of delicacies. 
"I think there are two main reasons for this. 
"The first is the stiff competition. The food industry is cruel. Even the best restaurants in the world have to continuously research new dishes and provide entertainment in the restaurant. 
"If they do not try to spruce up the environment, they would be seen as making no attempt to improve. After all, the customers' attention can be easily drawn away by other things in the restaurant.
"On top of that, there is the problem with customers' demands. Many other brands would deceive or tempt consumers, leaving them with too stark comparisons and too much stimulation. 
"As a result, consumers lose their ability to appreciate certain flavors and constantly seek more intense ones.
"As the food and beverage industry continues to use intense flavors to excite consumers' taste buds, a vicious cycle would form. As a consumer, I would definitely want to eat 'more delicious' food. However… I think that does not match the philosophy behind Chinese cuisine. 
"Chinese cuisine is about neutrality. Each dish has its place, with every ingredient having its unique taste. Strive to bring out natural flavors and infuse flavor to those that lack it. There is no one-size-fits-all in food. Cater to the individual's palate…"
"Simply put, every ingredient should have their own unique taste. When trying to match various ingredients, the chef has to make sure that their natural flavors blend well and not try to forcefully blend them together using artificial flavors. 
"A single dish also should not remain the same for too long. Instead, the chef has to match the dish to each consumer's special requests. 
"That's why our restaurant is constantly trying to balance those two factors. We want to keep the food's original flavors without adding artificial flavoring or additives, make our food nutritious and healthy, and continuously improve the taste of our dishes at the same time. 
"Take the Steamed Chinese Cabbage in Supreme Soup that both of you had today, for example. There's a saying that cabbage is still the most delicious among all vegetables. Although it's a very common ingredient, as long as you cook it with care, you could still make it as desirable as other precious and uncommon dishes."
Jia Nuo accurately translated the message that Lin Canrong was trying to convey, causing the two ladies to nod profusely. 
Jessica was listening very intently. If she had heard these words before today, she would have scoffed and acted like she had not heard it. She would write it off as an excuse for Chinese cuisine tasting worse than modern Western cuisine. 
However, after eating today's dishes, she could finally understand the rich and philosophical concepts she was hearing now. 
'Steamed Chinese Cabbage in Supreme Soup' completely embodied what Branch Manager Lin had been saying about the competition being which dish could taste blander. No modern artificial flavoring had been added, and the soup looked extremely clear. Yet, its blandness also contained an exquisite taste. 
Elena nodded. "Branch Manager Lin, your words make a lot of sense. They've been of great help to me. Thank you! How do you view the difference between Western and Chinese cuisine, Branch Manager Lin? Which do you think is better?" 
Lin Canrong smiled. "Deliciousness is subjective. Everyone's taste is different. I don't think there's a need to say that one is better than the other.
"Every dish has its roots in its culture. What's more, Western cuisine seems to be more acceptable to the rest of the world now because Western culture has been more widely accepted.
"Many people are also content with a smattering of knowledge about Chinese cuisine. They judge the food based purely on how intense the flavors are. Obviously, they would be reviewing Chinese cuisine based on the wrong system, and it would be impossible for them to arrive at the right conclusions. 
"The beauty of Chinese cuisine has to be understood against its specific cultural backdrop. It's not just food to satisfy one's appetite, but it's also an expression of thought and philosophy. 
"Take a very common dish, Dongpo Pork[1], for example. If you don't understand its historical background, it would be no different from ordinary braised pork. 
"However, if you know the story of Su Dongpo, the reason why he invented this dish and even saw the beautiful scenery by the West Lake in Spring… then, the meaning of the dish would be different altogether. 
"Only one who has read Su Dongpo's poems and seen his calligraphy can taste Dongpo Pork; otherwise, one would only be eating ordinary braised pork. 
"Many Westerners don't understand these and review Chinese cuisine according to Western standards. Of course, they would arrive at the conclusion that Chinese cuisine is worse than Western. However, that would be an obvious mistake. 
"Going back to your initial question… 
"I don't think it's wrong for modern Western cuisine to pursue an exquisite taste by controlling quantities. I also don't think that it's wrong for Chinese cuisine to focus on its culture. 
"Our restaurant does not discriminate against either style but strives to understand every single dish while providing a taste that would best appeal to and suit our diners." 
Jia Nuo elegantly and concisely translated Lin Canrong's speech while fully capturing the meaning behind every word.
Elena nodded profusely. 
At last, she sincerely said, "I see! Branch Manager Lin, you have a deep understanding of food indeed. I'm amazed!" 
Jessica was moved as well. "I will get rid of my prejudice against Chinese cuisine. So it's not that it tastes horrible, but that other Chinese restaurants do not measure up." 
Lin Canrong smiled. "Not at all. I am just a struggling student, trying to understand the extensive and profound food culture." 
Elena said, "Branch Manager Lin, I am actually a food blogger. Can I write everything that I experienced today on my blog? You have a unique understanding of the food and beverage industry, and you've given me a whole new perspective." 
Still smiling, Lin Canrong nodded. "Of course, you can." 
… 
After sending the two foreign friends away, Jia Nuo wiped the sweat from his forehead. "Branch Manager, those two don't seem like ordinary people. It's a good thing that you make us memorize the details of every dish, or I might have made a fool of myself. 
"Still, your final speech about the difference between Chinese and Western cuisine and culture was very well-put. I could see that our foreign friends were fully convinced."
After a moment of silence, Lin Canrong said, "Actually, I only recently realized that by chance. Coincidentally, it came in handy today." 
Jia Nuo was stunned. "You only realized that by chance? Branch Manager, that sudden realization really came at the right time, right?" 
Lin Canrong looked stern. "It looks like a coincidence, but in reality… it was planned. 
"I looked for Boss Pei earlier, intending to open a new branch, but Boss Pei rejected my suggestion. After that, I went back to think hard about what Boss Pei thought Ming Yun Private Kitchen's role was. 
"Subsequently, I understood. Ming Yun Private Kitchen is a unique restaurant that pursues quality over quantity. It's meant to provide the best experience for all diners. 
"The best experience, by nature, cannot be copied. Boss Pei kept emphasizing that Ming Yun Private Kitchen cannot set up another branch but has to spend as much money as possible on improving details. 
"I kept trying to find gaps to fill so that every aspect of this restaurant could be perfect. Our restaurant would not give foreigners special treatment. Instead, we will treat every customer equally and provide the perfect dining experience for all. 
"Today, we only hosted two slightly pickier diners from overseas, but this means a lot because we have passed the test. As long as we take every day as our first day, treat every customer as our first customer, and value every diner's feedback; we will become the best. 
"I learned all of those things while reflecting on Boss Pei's intentions, including the difference between Western and Chinese cuisine, as well as current developments in the food and beverage industry. 
"I think that we can only fulfill Boss Pei's expectations of Ming Yun Private Kitchen by working hard to meet this same standard!"

"Would you still protect Tilly even if you're hated by her?"

Roland couldn't help but get confused hearing his teacher question.

'Would I still protect Tilly even if she hated me?'

"Of course!"

With great determination, Roland let out his voices. Nieve that stands by his side nod his head and then took out a map and put it on top of a table while opening it for Roland to see.

"Good, then we need to start to plan our future moves."

"Teacher…? "

Seeing his teacher suddenly opened a map suddenly make him confused, yet before he can express it, his teacher has already explained it to him.

"Roland, I expect that In the near future, King Wimbledon III will give Royal Decree on the Selection of Crown Prince."

"Teacher, selection of the crown prince…do you mean?"

Hearing his teacher talk about the selection of crown prince makes him a little nervous for the answer he didn't want to hear might appear, alas his teacher didn't care about his thought now and continue to explain.

"Yes, it's the selection of the next king of Kingdom of Graycastle.

Without waiting for his student to answer, Roland has already continued his explanation.

"As you know from our studies, Kingdom of Graycastle is divided by Northern Region, Southern Region, Eastern Region, Central Region, and Western Region."

"1st prince Gerald Wimbledon, 2nd prince Timothy Wimbledon, 1st Princess Garcia Wimbledon, 3rd Prince Roland Wimbledon, and 2nd Princess Tilly Wimbledon will each be given a region to govern and the best region out of all will win!."

"But, there's one region which is so secluded even the church influence is pretty weak there, Roland Wimbledon, do you know the answer?"

"The Western Region…"

With a nod, Nieve continues to explain.

"Yes, Western Region… It can be said prince or princess that's given Western region will lose for sure"

"But!, that's the best location you can to develop your powers silently in the future"

"Bu-"

"And to protect your little sister…, remember that she's a witch now."

"She will flee to out of the Kingdom when she had a chance while you will make a safe haven for her in Western Region."

Hearing about Tilly condition, even make Roland more concerned, but he also becomes more determined than before.

"Then…teacher, how do I make sure that I get the Western Region in the future? is it by begging father?"

"No, people should see you're unwilling to go to the Western Region later in the future or it would be suspicious, and the best way to do it is…"

"By becoming a scum! 2nd generation rich young master!"

"Roland Wimbledon, from today onward we will go and taint your reputation and make people remember you…"

"As the scum of Kingdom of Graycastle!"

Hearing the word scum makes Roland uncomfortable, yet to protect his sister, he'll do anything! Which makes him show his determined eyes in front of his teacher.

Seeing his student act like this, Nieve can't help but sigh at fate. Even though Nieve knows that selection is a sham done by the church, he decides to use that to pressure his student, yes, to pressure him to make a choice that's important in his life. 

"Then, how do I start to become a scum?"

"Hahaha, you didn't need to really become a scum because…"

With a wave of his hands, A glow like portal was created and soon out of nowhere, another Roland Wimbledon gets out of the portal while bowing at Nieve.

"Do you need anything, master?"

Seeing that another him has appeared, even Roland can't help but feel surprised, yet after seeing the things his teacher do on daily basis, this little shock is truly too little that he calm himself down after a while.

"Teacher…he looks almost the same as me…"

"Hahaha!, he's great right? he'll cause trouble for you, while I teach you something in secret"

"Oh, yeah. Roland 2 go and bully princess Tilly right now and make her fear you."

"And don't forget to act like the scum Roland in my mind."

"What..! Teacher, that's!"

Hearing his teacher words, Roland can't help himself getting panicked, yet his teacher was still calm as ever in front of him while Roland 2 has gone out the room after he bows to his teacher while his expression changes into an expression of 2nd generation kids.

"I know what I do, Tilly needs to at least fear you now for her to obey you to steal the crown which is an illogical action for her cause she's smart for a kid her age, she needs to fear you, at least until both of you get the crown."

"The crown? That old crown on top of father head?"

"Nah, not that stinky crown."

"the crown I mean was the crown that the archbishop give your father just now."

"Given by archbishop, just now!?"

Reaching that point, Roland can't help but frown because he has already hated the church because of his teacher teaching, and he knows that anything the Archbishop gives wouldn't be anything good.

"Yes, it's the crown of corruption that will corrupt the mind of those who's near the crown."

"Crown of corruption…then!? Isn't it bad!?"

"Yep, most people in the castle will get influenced, including you and Tilly which was why you need to go and force Tilly to steal it with you"

"What…!?, then teacher, why don't you get rid of the crown now?"

"I can get rid of the crown immediately, but it'll be suspicious."

"Hence, I make a plan for you and Tilly to go and steal the crown, while saying the secret words to make the crown didn't affect both of you."

"That's why…"

Seeing his teacher act mysteriously while looking at him, Roland can't help but feel something bad will happen to him and as expected.

"You'll follow me for some special training before you can steal the crown while Roland 2 will go and make a bad reputation for you!."

"Now my student…"

Roland who look up, saw his teacher expression change into that of a smile again, which makes him looks happy.

"Let the heist, begin…!"

Zi Yu, a hardcore fans of Release that Witch unexpectedly get inside of a young apprentice named Nieve and becomes known genius after some accomplishment.

"Hey! I got a great idea. Bring Dollie with you. Then all you have to do is tell my date Dollie is your girlfriend. So even if my date thinks you're hot, she won't try anything, cause you're already spoken for,"  Joshua suggested. He thought he was so smart.    

Sheffield shut that idea down without hesitation. "No. I'm too busy making money!"    

Joshua raised his voice. "What the hell, man? I thought we were bros. I'm serious. If you don't come, we can't be friends anymore!"    

Joshua sounded really anxious, so Sheffield reluctantly agreed. "Okay, okay! Where are you going to meet your date?"

"Mom says she doesn't like Western food, so I invited her to the best Western restaurant in the city. I'll go in first. You wait a few minutes and then go in. We can pretend the whole thing is coincidence. A good idea, huh?"    

'His date doesn't like Western food? Evelyn doesn't like it either, ' Sheffield thought to himself. "Okay! Remember, you owe me!"    

"All right, all right, see you later!"    

Evelyn's date asked her to meet him at the best restaurant serving Western food in the city. She was already disappointed in him, even though she hadn't met him yet.

She didn't like cheese nor did she like Western food very much. But the restaurant he chose not only specialized in Western fare, but also seemed to have a lot of cheese.    

When the time came, Evelyn didn't change her clothes. Instead, she wore her white suit from work. She'd been wearing it the whole morning, and she didn't see a reason to change.    

Though he didn't want to go on the blind date, as a man, Joshua had to be punctual, so he arrived at the restaurant a few minutes early.    

He reserved a table in the lobby instead of a private booth so that he could met Sheffield "by chance" later.

When Evelyn arrived at the restaurant, she saw Joshua in a white casual suit drinking red wine. He behaved elegantly, like a respected young man.    

When he happened to see the woman walking towards him, he put down his wine glass and his eyes widened.    

'Oh man, she's hot! Where is she going?' he wondered.    

The manager escorted Evelyn to where Joshua sat. When she saw who her blind date was, a dash of surprise flashed through her eyes. "Joshua Fan?"

Joshua nodded. He realized his wine glass was still in his hand, so he immediately put it down. Hearing her say his name, Joshua thought that she'd been told who he was. He stood up from his seat happily and asked, "So you're my blind date?"    

Evelyn furrowed her eyebrows. 'The man I'm on a date with is Sheffield's best friend?' "Yes,"  she said.    

"Have a seat!" He then walked up to her and pulled out the chair for her.    

Then, he took a look at his clothing and then shifted his eyes to her.    

They had the same style. They were both in white suits.

Evelyn was wearing a white casual shirt inside, while he wore a sky blue shirt under his suit. He pointed this out. "What a coincidence! We're both in suits."    

Evelyn's brows knitted even tighter. 'Didn't Sheffield tell him about me?' she wondered.    

Joshua's heart skipped a beat. 'She's frowning. Doesn't she like me?'    

As Evelyn sat down, Joshua's phone rang. It was Sheffield.    

"Hey, I'm here. Are you on the second floor?" Sheffield asked.

"Yeah... Wait, wait!" Joshua put a hand to his mouth and turned away from Evelyn. "Don't come up here,"  he said in a low voice, trying to keep her from hearing him. "Change of plans."    

"What's wrong?" Sheffield and Dollie were already at the entrance.    

"Nothing's wrong. I think I like her!" Joshua acted as if he had never met a woman before. His eyes lit up at the sight of her. This one was so hot, he could handle it if she were dumb as a box of rocks.

In fact, he was a playboy just like Sheffield. He had been around many women, but none of them was as perfect as Evelyn. In front of her, Joshua felt like a teenager.    

Sheffield understood. "All right. Now that we're here, we're going to get something to eat. I'm starving. Don't worry. We won't bug you!"    

"Okay!"

After hanging up the phone, Joshua put it aside and said with a smile, "I'm sorry. I had to take that. What's your name? You look familiar. Have we met before?" Joshua was confused as he seemed to know her from somewhere.    

Evelyn's face was emotionless. "Evelyn Huo. And I'm not sure." 
She picked up her phone and sent a WeChat message to Terilynn, saying, "Let's have lunch together. My treat." Then she sent her location to her sister.    

She didn't want to hang out with Sheffield's friend.

"Evelyn Huo? Oh... That's right. You're the regional CEO of ZL Group." 'No wonder she looks so familiar. After that press conference, photos of her are everywhere, ' he thought.    

"The same." Evelyn nodded.    

Just then, a man and a woman walked into the restaurant on the second floor.    

Joshua took the menu and told Evelyn, "I didn't know what you liked, so I didn't order anything in advance. I just—"    

"Holy shit! Evelyn? That you?" a familiar voice called out, interrupting Joshua.

Sheffield dropped Dollie's hand and rushed to Evelyn. "My God! It's really you! So you're... his date? Well, I'm shook!" He raised in voice in shock.

Evelyn frowned when he said "holy shit." 

Realizing that she didn't like him cursing, he tried to joke it away. "Sorry... Excuse my French... Never mind." 

Joshua was bewildered and asked, "Dude, do you know her?" 

Sheffield's face changed dramatically. "In more ways than one. What the hell... No, Evelyn, I didn't mean it that way. I just didn't expect that Joshua's date..." His eyes finally fell on Joshua.    

Joshua suddenly had a bad feeling about all this. "Don't tell me that she's..."    

Sheffield nodded gloomily. It never occurred to him that Evelyn would go on a blind date with one of his best friends!    

"He's just kidding. We don't know each other. Let's order!" Evelyn said as she took the menu and began to read it.    

Joshua was quick to react. "How about...we have lunch together?" he asked Sheffield.    

"Okay,"  replied Sheffield without hesitation. It couldn't get any better!    

"Isn't there an empty table here?" Evelyn took a glance around the restaurant with a frown. There were still many empty tables.    

Having guessed what was going on with her, Joshua tried to smooth things over. "What a coincidence! Sheffield's my best friend. Evelyn, meet Sheffield."    

Dollie had been completely ignored by Sheffield and she look dejected. Sheffield waved his hand and said, "So great! We all know each other. Let's have lunch together. Dollie, come here and say hi to my friend."    

"Okay." Dollie's face softened a little at his words. Then she came over, adroitly balanced in her high-heeled shoes.    

Joshua sat opposite Evelyn. He thought Sheffield would sit next to him, but to his surprise, Sheffield sat next to Evelyn.

"Drive this woman out!"

"Throw this woman into the sea!"
