Chapter 0: The Mysterious Company “Hoo~~” A thick puff of smoke was exhaled, obscuring the job-hunting page on the computer screen. [Hello, your qualifications do not match our requirements. We are not moving forward with your application. Thank you!] A hint of anxiety flashed in Su Jin’s eyes as he expressionlessly closed the pop-up window. […]

Chapter 2: I Didn’t Want to Cross Over! A prank! A premeditated, extremely malicious prank! A cold sweat slicked Su Jin’s spine as the thought slammed into his brain. The cryptic letter. The delivery slip. Some underground assassin syndicate couldn’t have just mailed their welcome package to the wrong address. The spontaneous combustion of the

Chapter 3: The School Belle’s Nightmare “Ah!” Fu Qingdai bolted upright in bed with a sharp scream. Cold sweat clung to her skin, soaking right through her sheer white nightgown. Jerked awake from the nightmare once again. She sat there, chest heaving in shallow, ragged breaths, her terrified eyes welling with tears. The endless gray

Chapter 4: Brave New World [Longshan Psychiatric Hospital] “Son of a bitch… where the hell did I get dropped…” Su Jin muttered, staring blankly at the massive sign hanging over the psychiatric hospital. A deafening bang suddenly shattered the air. Startled like a spooked pigeon, Su Jin whipped around just in time to see a

Chapter 5: A Society Both Familiar and Unfamiliar “I’ve given you my name. For the rest of this conversation, I expect complete transparency. No omissions,” Su Jin stated. He pulled a pen and a notebook from his bag, raising his eyes to meet Fu Qingdai’s. “I want your daily routine, family dynamics, the exact wording

Chapter 6: I Am a Namekian “Without a doubt. I am a Namekian,” Su Jin replied, his voice a flat, unwavering calm. “Cousin, are you… are you wearing a human skin suit?” Fu Qingdai asked, her voice trembling violently. “We Namekians look exactly like this.” Hearing Su Jin’s firm answer, Fu Qingdai felt a marginal

Chapter 7: The Art of Networking, and the Esteemed Mi 6 User The moment the smartphone appeared, Ding Jia’s attention was completely derailed. She stared at it, her eyes wide with shock. “What is that?” “A phone.” “That is a phone?!” Su Jin offered a suave, practiced smile. “My apologies, I completely forgot. This model

Chapter 8: Exploring Life in Another World Stepping out of the mental hospital, Su Jin tilted his head back and squinted against the glare of the sun. The initial panic had faded after meeting the client and successfully negotiating his way out, but a heavy fog of doubt still weighed on his chest. He wondered

Chapter 9: Biological Research and Exploration The shop reeked of off-gassing plastic film and decaying paper. Behind the counter, the owner rummaged through a thick disc binder. “Disaster flicks are pretty niche. What subgenre are we talking?” “Viral outbreaks, mutated beasts, alien invasions… the standard pre-apocalyptic survival stuff for ordinary people.” “Gotcha, gotcha. Give me

Chapter 10: A Lonely Heart The ride over was uneventful. After picking up a cheap backpack, Su Jin spent the taxi trip reviewing Fu Qingdai’s intel before getting dropped off outside the Talent Residential Community. The complex lacked any real perimeter walls. Standing by the curb, Su Jin had a clear view of the drab,

Chapter 11: The Doomsday Plan After a long, hollow sigh, Su Jin’s legs gave out. He slid down the wall and slumped onto the floor, his chest heaving with ragged breaths. He had always considered himself braver and more optimistic than the average guy. And until today, he had been right! Even after entering the

Chapter 12: The School Beauty Returns Home Five days until the apocalypse. Another sunset. Seven o’clock in the evening. Su Jin hauled his backpack into the cramped rental, his corporate suit swapped out for a cheap, locally sourced tank top and board shorts. It had been a highly productive day. He’d burned half the afternoon

Chapter 13: Entering the Fu Household Four days until the apocalypse. After a grueling day of prep, Su Jin’s fourth-floor apartment was already crammed with varying stacks of supplies. He’d spent the morning running reconnaissance and the afternoon draining his wallet at the wholesale market. His haul included ten heavy-duty water jugs, dozens of bags

Chapter 14: The Mysterious Department, Psychological Gameplay The two men took their seats on the sofa simultaneously. Zhang Wan set down two glasses of water, immediately turning on her heel to vanish back into the kitchen. After a moment of heavy silence, Fu Hu probed tentatively, “Director Li, do you mind if I ask a

Chapter 15: The Quality of a Top Agent “What on earth is going on out there?” Zhang Wan hissed, keeping her voice low. Fu Hu scowled. “I have no idea. This kid pops out of nowhere, claiming to be some high-ranking director from the National Bureau. I’ve never heard of the damn agency, but he

Chapter 16: A Blade Hanging Over the Neck “Director Li, how do we rehabilitate her?” Zhang Wan asked immediately, patting Fu Qingdai’s shoulder. Su Jin held her gaze. “The rehabilitation itself is simple. But before we get to the solution, we need to address the root. For a teenager, a psychological fracture of this magnitude

Chapter 17: Playing the Pig to Eat Feed Su Jin dragged himself out of bed. After a perfunctory scrub and throwing on some clothes, he stuffed a spare outfit into his bag and bolted out the door, making a beeline for the slaughterhouse. He’d already grilled the local butchers at the wet market for intel.

Chapter 18: Apocalypse Armament Su Jin headed back early that afternoon to drop off the pig feed. Afterward, he dove straight back into market research and stockpiling supplies, not dragging his exhausted body home until dusk painted the sky. After a quick shower and a change of clothes, he knocked on Fu Qingdai’s front door.

Chapter 19: Why Do You Keep Looking at My Feet? “Thirty-two point eight? Even with the change? What can this little money do?” Su Jin said discontentedly. “It’s enough to buy hanging ropes, one for each of us.” Fu Qingdai wore a troubled expression. “Cousin, this is all I found. I asked my mom for

Chapter 20: The Eve of the Apocalypse Seeing the bizarre reaction, Fu Qingdai’s face drained of color. She opened her mouth to scream. “Cousin— hk! urgh!” Before the shout could leave her lips, Su Jin thrust a trembling hand forward to muffle her. But his motor skills were shot. His hand slipped, and a finger

Chapter 21: Opening the Gates of Hell Pushing his door open, Su Jin found Fu Qingdai stepping out from the apartment across the hall. They locked eyes, both freezing for a fraction of a second. “Are your parents asleep?” Su Jin asked. “Mm.” Fu Qingdai nodded softly. “I gave them a double dose. They’re dead

Chapter 22: Global Rainstorm The weather forecast hadn’t predicted a drop of rain. In fact, the local meteorologists had promised a dry spell for the rest of the week. Yet, the torrential downpour arrived exactly as Fu Qingdai had dreamed. Su Jin’s throat bobbed. He closed his eyes, a dull ache throbbing in his chest.

Chapter 23: The Company’s New Message Su Jin grabbed his phone, gritting his teeth against a splitting headache. He had set an alarm before crashing, but a quick glance at the screen told him he’d been out for less than two hours. He sat on the edge of the mattress for a moment, letting the

Chapter 24: The First Signs Appear~ Confirming the dead mouse had completely vanished into the briefcase’s extradimensional space. Before Su Jin could even catch his breath, a wave of sheer ecstasy hit him! A fresh line of text had already projected itself across his vision. [Extraction successful. Equivalent item compensation issued.] Incredible! The company’s methods

Chapter 25: Silent Detonation Five days bled into one another. The rain was still falling, though the torrential downpour had visibly weakened compared to day one. It felt like the storm could finally break at any second. Su Jin stood by the window, his face a bloodless, sickly pale. Five days trapped in a pressure

Chapter 26: Your Daughter is the Savior The blizzard howled through the night. By morning, the precipitation had finally ceased. Su Jin woke and pulled himself upright. The sheer, unrestrained venting of his emotions the night before had granted him an unprecedentedly sound sleep. His mental exhaustion was practically wiped clean. He shot a complicated

Chapter 27: I Am the Country, I Am the Army “Then tell me what else I’m supposed to do!! What can I do?!” Fu Hu roared, his sanity fracturing. “Get the hell out of my house! Whatever happens, leave my daughter out of it! I don’t want to hear your psychotic bullshit!” “Dad!” Fu Qingdai

Chapter 28: Talent in the Talent Residential Community By noon, the makeshift steel-pipe barricades clogging the hallway had been entirely dismantled. SU JIN stepped out of FU HU’s apartment once more, a physical list gripped in his hand. The contents were, naturally, the personnel files for the floor’s residents. FU HU was familiar with almost

Chapter 29: First Zombie Kill! Listening to Sun Ya’s account, Su Jin felt a deep jolt of shock and fell into a heavy silence. According to Fu Hu’s dossier, this old man was a veteran researcher in medical equipment manufacturing. He had serious credentials. But now, he had blacked out every window in his apartment

Chapter 30: Night Talk at the Base He ran the same routine a few more times. Once the vast majority of the zombies were down, the courtyard finally fell silent. The sun dipped below the horizon, pulling the sky into dusk. Zhang Wan had finally woken up, though she just stared blankly at the wall.

Chapter 31: Full Army Preparation The next day, the biting wind howled once again. The group rose early, forcing down a quick breakfast. With actual professionals on the payroll, their R&D capabilities regarding the infected matter immediately skyrocketed. SU JIN spent the morning harvesting ice. He sorted varying quantities of cubes into standardized containers, then

Chapter 32: In-Depth Investigation of Zombies An hour later, Sun Ya paused his experiments and came downstairs. Su Jin stood by the dining table. The naked corpse lay spread-eagle, its limbs lashed tightly to the table legs and chairs. An array of tools was lined up on the table edge. The second corpse, bound tight

Chapter 33: Same Old Wine in a New Bottle Sun Ya extended the scalpel, gently prying the heart open. Earlier, they had only examined the front, completely missing the sharp, horn-like protrusion jutting from the side of the organ. As the tip of the blade peeled back the muscle, the object concealed behind the heart

Chapter 34: Light and Dark Twinborn, Strength and Speed Double A “Superman…” The entire room stared, dumbfounded, as Su Jin hauled himself off the floor. He was covered in dust, but that display of physics-defying acrobatics looked straight out of a CGI blockbuster. The sheer hang time, fluidity, and explosive speed were completely inhuman. Su

Chapter 35: The Terrified Elders “Coming!” Su Jin straightened his collar and pulled the door open. Standing before him was Sun Ya, his face looking somewhat swollen and bruised. A slight smile touched Su Jin’s lips. “Old Sun, it looks like I really am immune to the infection. That Fleshy Orb is crucial to us.

Chapter 36: The Collapsing 302 Several heads poked out from the sixth-floor window, their faces painted with stark terror. Su Jin strolled among the Zombie corpses, his blade rising and falling in a rhythmic, mechanical chop. Some were decapitated, some dismembered, and others diced into geometric chunks. But regardless of the cut, every single one

Chapter 37: Moral Decay, Human Nature Collapses A single gunshot shattered the lock of Room 301. Su Jin stood motionless, his gaze sharp as a hawk, pistol raised and ready. Moments later, the door creaked open. A lifeless face appeared from the shadows, only to collapse instantly. Crack. Crack. Two rapid shots echoed, and two

Chapter 38: Future Strategic Plan The door was sealed shut again. Inside Room 302, Li Fang had finally stopped crying, slumped against the bed in sheer exhaustion. Cao Chengping sat uneasily, his eyes darting around the room like a cornered rat. Who would have thought that the blood-soaked maniac from earlier wasn’t a psycho killer,

Chapter 39: A New Type of Infection The three of them headed downstairs one after another, making a beeline for the fifth-floor laboratory. Pushing open the guest bedroom door, Sun Ya and Wei De squeezed in first to check on the rat cages. Su Jin unplugged his phone from the power bank; the device was

Chapter 40: Night Talk by Candlelight Having executed both suspects, Su Jin briskly made his way back up to the sixth floor. He shot a quick glance at the quarantine room holding Cheng Du and Sister Liu. Seeing they were both safely inside, he headed back to his own apartment across the hall. At this

Chapter 41: Soul-Bound Equipment and New Intel Su Jin woke up to a splitting hangover, his head throbbing like a war drum. He glanced at the window; the sun was already high in the sky. It was noon. Taking in his surroundings, he realized he had passed out and someone had dragged him into the

Chapter 42: A Glimmer of Hope “Delayed gratification?” Su Jin frowned, a flicker of confusion in his eyes. “Precisely. Their bloodlust is overwhelming; they will strike the nanosecond an opportunity presents itself. The man who died yesterday instinctively began hunting the moment his true nature was exposed.” Sun Ya offered a grim smile, jerking his

Chapter 43: The Longshan Medical University Strategy A map of Longshan City lay spread across the table. The three men gathered around it. Su Jin leaned his weight onto his hands against the table, glancing between the two old men. “Only the three of us know about the Disguised Infected. It’s not convenient to brief

Chapter 44: Full Force Mobilization, A New Ability! Two days later. The ambient temperature had crept up to fifty degrees Fahrenheit. The gray mist lurking in the water—the apocalypse’s chief architect—had vanished without a trace. In its wake lingered a faint, ever-present stench. With no running water to flush toilets, the municipal sewer system had

Chapter 45: Fu Hu’s Ability Two more days vanished in a blur of blood and logistics. The daily grind remained identical to the last. Exterminating Zombies, running census counts on the survivors, and allocating Supplies. In their spare time, the two elders, Sun Ya and Wei De, ran a crash course for the others on

Chapter 46: Director, Hurry Up and Put on the Socks! “Hahahaha, not too shabby, right?” Fu Hu stood with his hands on his hips, laughing with immense satisfaction. “How about this ability of mine? Damn, we’re definitely not ordinary people anymore.” “Alright, alright, it’s solid work!” Su Jin coughed lightly, a deep sense of relief

Chapter 47: Restaurant Central Avenue, Yingbin Restaurant. The heavy steel rolling shutter remained bolted shut to the floor, the only illumination bleeding through the narrow slats of the blinds. Inside the main dining hall, twenty-three survivors huddled in chairs, buried under layers of heavy winter coats and fleece blankets. A thick, suffocating despair hung over

Chapter 48: Longxing Pharmacy “Mom!” Ding Jia threw herself beside her mother, scrambling to check her vitals. She looked up with desperate urgency. “My mom has a severe heart condition, she needs her blood pressure medication. Supervisor Tan, do we have anything like that here?” Tan Hui let out a helpless sigh. “This is a

Chapter 49: Meeting at the Pharmacy! “Hah… hah…” Inside Longxing Pharmacy, Tan Hui’s chest heaved violently. Catching his breath, he looked at Yue Hao beside him. “I didn’t expect it to be this easy. Way simpler than I thought!” Since leaving the Yingbin Restaurant, they had sprinted to Longxing Pharmacy in almost a single breath,

Chapter 50: The Zombies Are Evolving After executing the suspicious child, Su Jin turned toward Fu Hu and Cheng Du. The two men stood frozen, entirely speechless. A second or two ticked by before they simultaneously snapped their stiff necks toward Su Jin. The kid had still been crying… and he’d just walked up and

Chapter 51: Everything Goes Smoothly The rest of the drive went off without a hitch. Their vehicle rolled to a slow stop at the main entrance of Longshan Medical University. The heavy iron gates were locked tight. Su Jin scanned the perimeter from the passenger seat, confirming the coast was clear of zombies. He stepped

Chapter 52: A Hundred Meters of Danger Securing the Sodium Fluorescein and the Portable UV Light inside the dimensional briefcase strapped to his chest, Su Jin grabbed the mouse cage and strode out of the laboratory. Fu Hu and Cheng Du immediately moved to intercept him, their expressions grim. Cheng Du spoke first, his voice

Chapter 53: A New Mutant, The Terrifying Student Zombie “What’s the play, Director?” Fu Hu asked, his eyes locked on the road ahead. “The horde inside the campus was already shifting when we drove past earlier,” Su Jin replied, his voice a flat, analytical drone. “I don’t like the bottleneck at the main gates. Lots

Chapter 54: Terrifying Zombie Horde A Zombie’s greatest weakness was its pants. Since the undead lacked the cognitive function to hitch up a falling waistband, their mobility dropped in direct correlation to how far their pants sagged. Su Jin had noted this glaring flaw early on while slaughtering his way through the infected; it was

Chapter 55: Restaurant Bloodbath Ding Jia nodded. Tattooed Arm stepped forward and untied her restraints. The second the ropes fell away, Ding Jia whipped her hand out—smack!—slapping Tattooed Arm hard across the face. The blow made his vision swim. Tattooed Arm froze. Everyone else in the room stood dumbfounded. “You piece of shit!! I saw

Chapter 56: Second Evolution, Strength Leaps Slipping into the house, Su Jin immediately rushed to the window and yanked the curtains shut. Luckily, the heavy drapes in the adjacent rooms were already drawn. As the thick fabric sealed off the living room, the interior plunged into near pitch-blackness. In absolute darkness, his speed and agility

Chapter 57: Determining the Future Path The air on the sixth floor of the Talent Residential Community was thick with suffocating tension. Fu Hu and Cheng Du had already returned, successfully securing the required Supplies. But their backbone was still missing. Fu Qingdai shot anxious, rapid-fire glances at the front door. It was already past

Chapter 58: Fu Qingdai’s Change “Ah…” Sun Ya let out a heavy sigh. “Honestly, after laying it all out, there isn’t much left to say. It’s just… whenever I realize we’re expecting this ragtag bunch of stragglers to operate like elite cultivators, my stomach ties itself into knots.” “We don’t have the luxury of options;

Chapter 59: The Exposed Disguised Infected “Thank you, thank you! Thank the government, I’ll follow any orders!” The man practically groveled, eagerly snatching the water and food Su Jin handed him. Taking advantage of his distraction, Zhang Wan slipped the small mouse from her sleeve and dropped it into the corner of the bathroom. Snagging

Chapter 60: The Director’s Gradual Descent into Brutality In a blur of motion, Su Jin struck, systematically snapping the man’s limbs before shoving a glass lightbulb deep into his mouth. He fetched a coil of rope, hogtied the writhing figure with brutal efficiency, and casually dumped him in the center of the living room. Sun

Chapter 61: Mass Mobilization Meeting “Mobilize?” Fu Qingdai panicked, her eyes wide. “Brother, I don’t know how to do that!” “Then what the hell can you do?” Cheng Du shot back, raising an eyebrow. “I… I…” Fu Qingdai stammered, wringing her hands before finally blurting out, “I-I know how to collect class fees…” “Cheng Du,

Chapter 62: The Lament of the Maya Warrior “But this situation isn’t black and white, and we certainly aren’t just sitting around waiting to die. What we’re organizing right now isn’t some hasty, slapped-together rescue op. It is a calculated, purposeful gathering of assets. We are looking at a brand-new world war, and we still

Chapter 63: A Flawless Mobilization The moment the words left his mouth, a ripple of exchanged glances swept through the room. Confusion twisted into sudden, desperate realization for some, while others practically vibrated with excitement. “I know! Isn’t that old man Fu’s kid? She was raving about the apocalypse weeks ago and got locked up

Chapter 64: Hidden Killing Intent Before Dawn! A delicate, pale hand uncurled from the desiccated throat of a corpse. The hollowed-out body slumped to the concrete with a heavy thud. Jiang Yu glanced down at the dark, viscous gore painting her collar. With a sneer of pure disgust, she viciously ripped the ruined fabric away,

Chapter 65: The Stunning Female Celebrity “Two women?” Su Jin’s hands froze over the whetstone. He shot a sideways glare at Cheng Du, who was honing a blade right next to him. Cheng Du blinked rapidly. “I… I gave the order, Director. I explicitly told them no outsiders.” Spinning around, Cheng Du barked at the

Chapter 66: Interrogating the Pop Star A small folding table was set up by the entrance. Su Jin sat to the side, waiting. He tilted his head, watching Fu Qingdai bustle around inside as she distributed the rations. A few moments later, Cheng Du carried over three steaming bowls of noodles and slammed them down

Chapter 67: The Beast in Human Skin & Fu Qingdai’s Ability Jogging all the way, he arrived at the building’s entrance. Cheng Du nervously stepped into the corridor. Seeing the first-floor security door wide open, he tiptoed inside. The moment his foot crossed the threshold and he saw the entryway, Cheng Du’s entire body went

Chapter 68: The Pitiful Ding Ling “Big sister… I’m hungry…” Ding Ling tipped her head back, her voice a frail, pitiful rasp as she stared up at Fu Qingdai. Fu Qingdai forced a stiff, unnatural smile. Fu Hu gently squeezed his daughter’s shoulder. “Qingdai,” he muttered, keeping his voice low. “The Director will handle this.

Chapter 69: Jiang Yu’s Tragic Death Seeing Sun Ya’s uncharacteristic rage, Cheng Du didn’t dare waste another second. He scrambled to his feet and led the charge. If Su Jin was the undisputed tactical pillar of the camp, Sun Ya was its administrative backbone. Despite his age and fiery temper, the old man’s organizational skills

Chapter 70: The Great Director, Sacrificing for Humanity! Sun Ya immediately opened his mouth to speak. Su Jin raised a hand to cut him off, shifting his intense gaze to Cheng Du. “That little girl is definitely dead, right?” Fu Hu interjected, “Dead as a doornail. I saw it with my own eyes. She took

Chapter 71: Su Jin Under the Noonday Sun “What!” Su Jin’s heart hammered against his ribs. He lunged toward Fu Hu, his eyes wild. “Are you serious?” “Dead serious!” Fu Hu’s voice cracked with rising adrenaline. “I couldn’t believe it myself at first. Qingdai shot that kid point-blank. She took one look and knew instantly

Chapter 72: The Director Suffers a Hard Counter Another piece of trash! Cheng Du’s gaze turned icy, locking onto the target as he braced for a fight. He didn’t forget to ask, “Director, what’s the play?” Su Jin opened his mouth to reply, but his eyes suddenly narrowed. The graceful figure on the rooftop had

Chapter 73: Strong Reinforcements Arrive, Director Temporarily Exits the Scene “Director!” Cheng Du violently kicked open the door to the rooftop access hut and barged through. The brutal standoff between the two combatants came fully into view. The woman was drenched in blood and covered in gruesome wounds, clearly outmatched by the Director. Fu Hu

Chapter 74: The Three Rooftop Illusion Gods Battle the Succubus “Come out! Come out!!” Su Jin’s eyes spat fire, his arm blurring like a localized hurricane. His mind was utterly saturated with carnal filth; by all biological metrics, he should have finished this humiliating task already. But the midday sun was glaring down, his physique

Chapter 75: Perilous Summit, Rooftop Snow Battle The heavy buckshot shells launched from Su Jin’s hand, rocketing straight toward Liang Cui’s face. However, she had already anticipated the move, tracking his frantic unloading animation with predatory focus. The moment the brass left his fingers, she blurred into motion, darting behind Fu Hu for cover. With

Chapter 76: The Trio Who Lost All Face Half an hour later. The three ultimate experts—Public Flasher, Impotent, and Closeted Gay—sat shoulder-to-shoulder on the edge of the rooftop. The three of them stared into the middle distance with utterly dead, lifeless eyes. After a torturous eternity, Fu Hu, sandwiched in the middle, spoke in a

Chapter 77: Namekians Never Tell the Truth Tears pooled in the eyes of everyone in the room. Su Jin’s muscles were coiled tight, his chest burning with self-directed venom. His execution had been completely inadequate! Too slow! Too weak! If he had been just a fraction more thorough during the sweep, this catastrophic loophole would

Chapter 78: Are You an Alien? Stepping into the room where Sun Ya and Wei De were, Su Jin gently closed the door and approached. Wei De remained deeply unconscious. Su Jin kept his voice low. “Elder Sun, how is the situation? Any changes?” Sun Ya shook his head and sighed softly. “Based on the

Chapter 79: The Summit of Longlin: An MRI Life Gamble “What method?” Su Jin’s eyes sharpened, his exhaustion vanishing in an instant. “An MRI… that parasite isn’t small. An MRI will definitely spot it. We pinpoint its location, and kill it with a single strike!” Sun Ya threw a hard punch into the empty air.

Chapter 80: The Apocalypse’s Luxury Fridge Forty minutes later, Su Jin drove back to the activity center. Cheng Du had already received the news and was standing alone at the entrance, waiting. Seeing the car return, he immediately went up to meet it. Su Jin did not get out of the car, simply leaning out

Chapter 81: Elder Wei’s New Ability After a quick pat-down to ensure no one was carrying any magnetic metal, they were ready to proceed. Cheng Du headed into the ward, ran a final check over Wei De, and scooped him up, hauling him straight into the MRI suite. Su Jin hovered by the computer console,

Chapter 82: The Mutated Soldier King Attacks! “Damn, it really is accelerated healing… If this old fossil wakes up, is he going to be immortal?” Sun Ya marveled, shaking his head. “A blessing in disguise. A literal blessing in disguise. But let’s not break out the champagne just yet; we need Elder Wei to actually

Chapter 83: The Saintess Walks Alone “Move! Move!” Inside the echoing fire escape, Cheng Du, with Sun Ya strapped to his back, frantically barked at Wei De. Wei De wheezed and groaned with every heavy step, the beam of his flashlight trembling violently in his grip. “I might be cured, but I can’t keep up

Chapter 84: The Terrifying Soldier King Muzzle flashes strobed like a frantic heartbeat. Fu Qingdai ground her teeth together, sweeping her assault rifle in a wide, desperate arc. Her combat intuition was usually razor-sharp, but the sheer, suffocating density of the enemy’s malice washed over her like a tidal wave, blinding her radar. Therefore, visual

Chapter 85: Giving It All, Unable to Win The lights on the ninety-seventh floor remained dead. In the pitch darkness, Su Jin pushed his speed to the absolute redline, dragging Cheng Du along as they navigated the labyrinth of corridors. His eyes constantly scanning the shadows, he hissed in a low, tight voice, “Gao Tianfang

Chapter 86: At Death’s Door Swallowed by the pitch black, Fu Qingdai crouched inside a residential apartment, her grip white-knuckled around her compound bow. Since she had already swept the area, every interior door was left wide open, giving her an expansive, unobstructed tactical playground. The interior of the building was a void of absolute

Chapter 87: Fire God Cheng Du The door finally exploded inward under Gao Tianfang’s boot, sending their makeshift barricade flying across the clinic. Su Jin abandoned his focus on Cheng Du, violently swinging his right arm toward the splintered frame. He intentionally dragged his wrist across a jagged, deformed piece of the metal bedframe, ripping

Chapter 88: The Astonishing Great Reversal The temperature in the entire ward violently spiked, turning the ambient air into a scorching furnace. Witnessing Cheng Du’s staggering, apocalyptic metamorphosis, Gao Tianfang stood rooted to the linoleum in absolute shock. That wasn’t just a suppository… What the hell kind of payload could trigger such a catastrophic instantaneous

Chapter 89: The Ultimate Trump Card CHENG DU threw a desperate haymaker, but GAO TIANFANG simply backhanded him out of the air like swatting a fly. Thwack! CHENG DU slammed into the concrete, spitting a thick wad of blood as his induced vitality instantly collapsed. GAO TIANFANG didn’t rush to finish him off. Instead, a

Chapter 90: Mission Completed! Inside the MRI scanning room, a massive pool of blood crept across the linoleum, the machine’s deafening hum grinding on without end. Cheng Du practically dragged his broken body into the room, leaning heavily against the doorframe. Taking in the absolute slaughterhouse before him, and spotting Su Jin collapsed alongside Gao

Chapter 91: The Hardest Part Is Parting The two pulled the car doors open and got out. Fu Qingdai was in front, having already run ahead to a distance of about twenty meters from the two. Seeing Su Jin and Cheng Du safely exit the vehicle. Fu Qingdai’s face lit up with joy, and she

Chapter 92: Glimpsing the Company Su Jin halted at the street corner, his cold gaze locked on the storefront ahead. The system’s red waypoint pulsed directly over the entrance. Through the grime-streaked glass, he could see the interior. It was just a ransacked supermarket—completely unremarkable. After a moment of tactical deliberation, Su Jin reached out

Chapter 93: The Xinhuo Inheritance “Clarify that,” Su Jin demanded, his cynical facade slipping into genuine bewilderment. He had visualized the Company as some unfathomable, multiversal pantheon. Never in his darkest nightmares did he expect his grueling, death-defying contract to be classified as glorified janitorial work. The Steward clasped his hands behind his back. “The

Chapter 94: The Ecstasy of Returning to Earth “I haven’t finished the debrief…” Su Jin stood frozen in his rented room, his jaw slack. In a fraction of a second, reality had hard-reset. The oppressive corporate void was gone, replaced entirely by the claustrophobic, familiar clutter of his apartment. He dry-swallowed repeatedly, his lips trembling

Chapter 95: Return of the Dragon King in the City! “Old Li, I’m just here to collect my back pay and commission. Clear my ledger, and we’re officially done.” Inside his former company’s office, Su Jin sat across from his old manager, dressed sharply and wearing a cold, cynical smile. “You still have the fucking

Chapter 96: The Dragon King is Miserably Cornered Back pay secured! Descending the stairs with a lighter weight on his shoulders, Su Jin wandered aimlessly down the street, an unlit cigarette dangling from his lips. Despite having nowhere to be, a faint, lingering satisfaction warmed his chest. He hadn’t walked far before he paused, glancing

Chapter 97: Third Generation Sinder! Half a month later. “Get up! Get out of bed! Stop rotting in here and hurry up!” A sudden chill hit Su Jin as his mother violently yanked the blanket off his body. “All you do is eat and sleep! Can’t you find something productive to do? Another delivery arrived.

Chapter 98: The New Master of the Office ‘2:00:00’ ‘1:59:59’ ‘1:59:58’ Two hours of prep time. This was the countdown to return to the office and accept his next deployment. Su Jin stared at the glowing numbers. After ten seconds of dead silence, he pivoted and walked back into his bedroom. He pulled three massive

Chapter 99: Connecting Ten Worlds, Guiheng Platform Su Jin slowly drummed his fingers against the walnut desktop. After a moment of heavy thought, he broke the silence. “So, are all my colleagues human?” “No,” the Steward replied. “Any sentient species across the cosmos has the potential to join your division. Once an entity crosses a

Chapter 100: All-Encompassing, The Terrifying Heritage of Two Generations of Sinders “Then what else are these Contribution Points actually good for?” Su Jin pressed, refusing to let the issue drop. “Beyond establishing a stable World Bridge, they function as your emergency exfiltration budget. If a mission enters a failure state, you can burn fifty thousand

Chapter 101: Earth-Surging Demon Spring “Ngh.. someone.. someone..” Midnight. Shen Yufeng rose with agonizing slowness, his forehead resting heavily in his palm, skin slick with cold sweat. The chamber was stark. A plain wooden desk sat by the window, brush and ink aligned with military precision, the scent of burning incense still thick in the

Chapter 102: Final Preparations Before Departure “Your transport is ready.” The Steward checked his wristwatch, his usually stoic face bearing a trace of weary satisfaction as he strolled back into the office. He spotted Su Jin draped in a deep black cloak, repeatedly flashing items off the desk and into the void using a silver

Chapter 103: Failing Halfway at the Starting Line “Dismiss that notion. The cataclysm is a necessary catalyst. Until the Apocalypse breaches their reality, your client remains in a state of flux, and the Central Authority will refuse the connection. Furthermore, for the Company to salvage these worlds, it must harvest their renewed vitality and order.

Chapter 104: Analyzing the New World The client’s silhouette had completely vanished beyond the horizon. Su Jin was jostled back and forth like a wooden puppet in the roaring crowd, his blood running ice-cold. The moment the teleportation vertigo faded and he spotted the client through the sea of bodies, his instincts had screamed that

Chapter 105: The Mask’s Useless Function The street rabble had zero tact, their eyes glued to the man’s crotch as snickers rippled through the dirt-caked alley. Before the target could process the situation, Su Jin seized his waistband and yanked it skyward. In the frantic motion, the rough fabric caught a delicate snag. The man

Chapter 106: A Free Identity, Courtesy of the Court! The drunken bliss of a free feast was plastered across Xie Yong’s flushed face. Under Su Jin’s relentless pouring and calculated prodding, the man’s paternalistic need to lecture had erupted in full force. Even though Su Jin asked questions a toddler should know, Xie Yong scoffed

Chapter 107: The Steward’s Gift The cell block was a suffocating abyss, its rotting wooden bars exuding a thick stench of mildew that mingled with the metallic tang of blood and the sharp ammonia of urine. A handful of pitiful lamps flickered, casting erratic shadows, while the sporadic clanking of iron chains echoed from the

Chapter 108: Meeting in Another World, Enjoying Delicacies Those two black-armored soldiers were likely Xuanjia Army grunts. That meant the child they were dragging was almost certainly a legendary Suzai—a Spirit Girl. Su Jin’s eyes glinted in the oppressive dark. Slapping a heavy wooden cangue on a kid that tiny… talk about a bad roll

Chapter 109: Cell Banquet Du Wenyan muttered a word of thanks and picked up Su Jin’s portion of the sludge to begin his ‘feast’. After forcing down two bites, he glanced back at Su Jin. “One meal a day. Will you truly let this go to waste?” “I have my own rations. Do not concern

Chapter 110: The Great Triumph of Science! “Who’s eating shit? Check your eyes,” Su Jin scoffed, wiping his mouth. “That’s dried meat I smuggled in. Not like anyone rolled out the red carpet when I got tossed in here.” “I see…” Du Wenyan lowered his head. “My deepest apologies for the slight. My vision failed

Chapter 111: Escape to Freedom Lu Mingxuan shrieked, clawing at his blinded eyes. Su Jin’s off-hand blurred into motion, squeezing the trigger without a second thought. Center mass. Pivot and exfiltrate! The hollow-point had definitely connected, but the bastard was far from dead. Lu Mingxuan’s cultivation was no joke; taking a bullet to the chest

Chapter 112: Why Is There a Well in This Room? The clusters of torchlight multiplied, bleeding together in the dark. Wave after wave of search parties scoured the base of the city wall. Inside the RV, Du Wenyan and the little girl lay hogtied and gagged, dumped unceremoniously onto the faux-leather sofa. From the driver’s

Chapter 113: Repeating the Old Trick, Limited-Time Return After a tentative exploration of the cabin, the siblings returned to the lounge, their hands clasped tightly together. Seeing Su Jin occupying a bizarre contraption at the front of the carriage, they dared not interrupt. They perched awkwardly on the edge of the faux-leather sofa, waiting for

Chapter 114: The RV Exile Journey “If you like it, drink up. I need to run a final perimeter check; we’re rolling out soon.” Su Jin tossed the words over his shoulder as he slid back into the captain’s chair. He snatched his smartphone from the dashboard mount and scrubbed through the surveillance footage. Keeping

Chapter 115: I Am the Immortal Envoy “My thanks, Brother Wu. It is a rare kindness to find comfort now that I have fallen to such depths.” Du Wenyan cast a strange, lingering glance at Su Jin, forcing a hollow smile. Su Jin released a heavy breath. “I wish this were mere comfort. Let’s shelve

Chapter 116: She Is a Woman! He? She? A single pronoun, but the tactical implications hit Su Jin like a kinetic strike. Du Wenyan might be a woman, but looking at her, it seemed impossible. And yet, the idea that the translation mask had glitched was even more absurd. The Heavenly Dao Company did not

Chapter 117: Detective Lu Mingxuan “If that’s the hard limit, we adjust,” Su Jin said. “We’ll find a way to breach the city. It gives us a tactical window to restock any depleted supplies anyway.” Du Wenyan shook his head. “In truth, you need not view this as a dire obstacle. Greasing the palms of

Chapter 118: Immortal’s Delicacy “Wenyan, what was the deal with that Wind Demon Kirin Shen Yufeng was riding? Any chance we could procure one?” Su Jin asked, glancing over his shoulder as the RV bounced over the rugged terrain. “The Wind Demon Kirin is an apex predator, a rare beast broken from the most ferocious

Chapter 119: The Steward’s Nuclear Bomb A melodious song drifted through the RV’s cabin. Su Jin remained at the wheel. Another day had passed. The passenger seat was no longer occupied by Du Wenyan, but by Yun Lian. After a few days of consistent rations, clean water, and unthreatening behavior, the girl’s hyper-vigilance had thawed.

Chapter 120: Spirit Girl Bathing The terrain grew increasingly treacherous, reducing the heavy vehicle to a crawl. Road conditions aside, a cold knot of anxiety sat in Su Jin’s gut… He dreaded a rogue boulder tearing through the undercarriage and rupturing the nuclear battery. Even though he had absolutely no idea where the damn thing

Chapter 121: Master Su’s Superb Muscle Definition Su Jin hooked up the vehicle’s power supply, dragged out the air pump, and began inflating the dinghy. The deflated rubber rapidly expanded, pulling taut. Drawing a silver combat knife, Su Jin approached the equine carcass, analyzed its anatomy for a second, and began carving out a hind

Chapter 122: Battle Against Lu Mingxuan “Posturing trash!” As a fellow man, having his aura completely suppressed by this stranger felt like a stinging slap to Lu Mingxuan’s pride. Seeing that Su Jin had no intention of closing the distance, he snapped his gaze to Du Wenyan, his voice dripping with icy venom. “Du Wenyan,

Chapter 123: High-Speed Pursuit Slumped against the rubber hull of the dinghy, Su Jin sucked in ragged breaths. Crimson constantly welled from the ragged puncture wound in his shoulder, slicking his skin. The skirmish had been brief, but the psychological toll of fighting a literal battlemage was staggering. The information gap cut both ways, yet

Chapter 124: The Gluttonous Pig Stumbles into the Trap The two figures, enveloped in synthetic ghillie suits, scrambled up the forested incline. Although Du Wenyan lacked arcane abilities, Su Jin knew her physical conditioning was far beyond civilian grade. The sheer kinetic force and explosive speed she had demonstrated during her ambush in the dungeon

Chapter 125: The Mother-and-Child River Melon A whole sack of sweet melons vanished down his throat. Lu Mingxuan licked the sugary residue from his lips, his gaze sweeping the surroundings. Who knows where that beast chased those three off to. Probably dead. Judging by the tracks, the creature was massive. Whether he could even take

Chapter 126: A Grotesque Harvest Two figures blurred through the dense forest, trading brutal blows. The unnatural gestation wracking Lu Mingxuan’s abdomen forced him to abandon his Vein Qi arts in a desperate bid to suppress the alien movement. Even so, stripped of his Multiplication enhancement, Su Jin fought a grueling, uphill battle. The cultivator

Chapter 127: You’re Awake? Father and Son Are Safe The late-night meal ended. Lu Mingxuan remained unconscious. Du Wenyan set down her bowl. “Brother Wu, what is your play here? How are you handling him?” “What do you think?” Su Jin deflected smoothly. “My guess? You want to break him. You want to use his

Chapter 128: Severe Torture Awaits! “The same stale insults on repeat. If you don’t know how to swear, save your breath,” Su Jin sneered, shamelessly picking his nose. Lu Mingxuan ignored him, unleashing another torrent of venomous curses, spittle flying from his cracked lips. The armored RV only fell silent when Su Jin casually picked

Chapter 129: I Want to Learn the Art of the Way “Now isn’t this pleasant? I’ve always preferred civilized discourse,” Su Jin said, offering a casual shrug as he settled back into the sofa. Lu Mingxuan’s eyes darted frantically around the cabin, absolutely refusing to meet Su Jin’s gaze. He’s a devil! An absolute monster!

Chapter 130: Brother Gua’s Day Dawn broke, and the RV rumbled back into motion. It tore down the untamed dirt roads, relentless as ever. Lu Mingxuan remained hogtied, discarded on the living area’s sofa like a sack of unwanted grain. Ever since the previous night’s interrogation, his captors had treated him as if he didn’t

Chapter 131: Brother Gua Loves Cartoons “Suck on this. We’ll talk about real food later.” Su Jin unwrapped a lollipop and shoved it past Lu Mingxuan’s lips. He wasn’t starving the cultivator out of sheer malice; their precarious situation simply hadn’t been resolved yet. Solid food meant solid waste. If the captive soiled himself on

Chapter 132: The Wanted Poster Reaches Jiuzhao City Jiuzhao City sat cradled within the jagged embrace of nine towering peaks. As dusk bled into dawn, the shifting light cast long, wheel-like shadows across the mountains. Atop the stone battlements, Shen Yufeng stood like a gargoyle, his heavy cloak snapping fiercely in the wind. Beyond the

Chapter 133: Searching for Su Jin “Du Wenyan?” Shen Yufeng’s voice cracked with raw disbelief. “How could he possibly orchestrate a disaster of this scale? Show me the dispatch!” He had known the man for years. While Du Wenyan often wore a politician’s mask, his fundamental character and moral compass had always seemed sound. He

Chapter 134: The Client in Action “Young Master, we must find him, but how?” Zhao Yuanliang asked. Shen Yufeng fell into a heavy silence. The entire empire was hunting these three fugitives. The elite Xuanjia Army had been mobilized, yet their quarry remained a ghost. Sending a lone attendant to quietly track down a man

Chapter 135: Brother Gua’s Miserable Life One hundred and seventy days remained until the apocalypse. A light melody hummed through the RV’s speakers, washing away the tension coiled in Su Jin’s chest. The backroads were a treacherous mess of ruts and overgrowth, frequently forcing them to abandon the vehicle and hike, leaving them only halfway

Chapter 136: Lu Mingxuan Joins the Team After sitting through two-thirds of the film, Lu Mingxuan remained frozen in his seat. Scene after scene echoed relentlessly through his mind. Immortals… earth-shattering battles… every frame struck his nerves. Real people. There truly were beings capable of moving mountains and boiling seas, soaring through the heavens and

Chapter 137: Fed and Watered Silence. A long, suffocating silence. After digesting Su Jin’s explanation, Lu Mingxuan didn’t utter another word. Seeing his broken state, Su Jin shot a meaningful glance at Du Wenyan. He stood, hauled the limp Lu Mingxuan over his shoulder, stepped out of the RV, and shut the door behind him.

Chapter 138: His Name is Su Jin? “Earlier, when I asked if you could smuggle us through the city checkpoints via the official roads, you said it was impossible. Was that the truth? Because if we’re a team now, I want to shave as much time off this road trip as possible.” Having posed the

Chapter 139: They’re Not Here to Investigate Us, Are They? After loitering near the city gates and observing the flow of traffic for a solid hour, Lu Mingxuan finally slipped back into the treeline. The moment he rounded the back of the RV and spotted Su Jin, he marched right up and pointed an accusatory

Chapter 140: Your Socks Are Quite Interesting! “The imperial court simply has no grasp of your struggles. Repairing the city wall is just a convenient excuse, isn’t it? If the Demon Spring disaster truly descends, how long could that pile of rubble hold anyway?” The advisor continued his relentless muttering. “When it comes down to

Chapter 141: Secret Teaching “Shu Dao. You promised to teach me the mystic arts. Cough it up,” Su Jin demanded bluntly. Lu Mingxuan let out a long, exasperated sigh. “You are truly dead set on this? It seems the Immortal’s Blessing left you completely ignorant of basic cultivation. You already walk the Martial Dao; you

Chapter 142: Obtaining the Five Secret Arts of the Tanyu Sect Su Jin’s smile gradually widened into an arrogant smirk… His theory was spot on. His baseline strength hovered right around the three-Vein mark. The moment he acquired a new power system, the Xinhuo Mark forcefully dragged it up to that exact same threshold! If

Chapter 143: Team Conflict The sun dipped below the jagged peaks, bleeding the last light from the sky. The primeval forest grew treacherously dark, making rapid travel impossible. After deploying a drone to scout the perimeter, Su Jin located a relatively flat clearing and finally summoned the RV. Lu Mingxuan’s face instantly lit up at

Chapter 144: Otherworldly Delicacy, Roasted Horse Meat Once the two were swallowed by the shadows, Lu Mingxuan immediately turned on him. “We were eating! What is this nonsense about cultivation?” In the pitch black, Su Jin’s eyes glittered coldly. He had toggled back to his base Ability state while whittling the spit. He had heard

Chapter 144: Otherworldly Delicacy, Roasted Horse Meat Once the two were swallowed by the shadows, Lu Mingxuan immediately turned on him. “We were eating! What is this nonsense about cultivation?” In the pitch black, Su Jin’s eyes glittered coldly. He had toggled back to his base Ability state while whittling the spit. He had heard

Chapter 145: Detective Shi Qing “Crap.” Hearing Lu Mingxuan’s agonized wail and connecting it to his earlier shock, Su Jin immediately realized his mistake. He flipped out a hunting knife and furiously hacked away at the roasting meat. Du Wenyan mirrored his urgency, grabbing a blade and carving at a frantic pace. By the time

Chapter 146: Shi Qing Attacks! Crack. A thick branch snapped. Su Jin rolled his wrist, mentally locking in the physical sensation. His progress with the Qi Binding Ring was solid. After a sleepless night of conceptualizing, he could consistently snap a branch with invisible force. The tactile feedback felt incredibly satisfying. Every deployment of the

Chapter 147: The Unorthodox Combat Expert With Su Jin’s warning ringing in his ears, Lu Mingxuan snapped to attention. Sensing the sheer, oppressive killing intent rolling off his attacker, he decisively threw his arms forward, unleashing a Wind Blade Slash to buy himself room to retreat. Shi Qing’s aura exploded outward. He charged relentlessly, a

Chapter 148: Secret Technique – Twist-Twist Recovery! “What kind of blade is that?!” Shi Qing roared, his eyes squeezed shut against the burning agony. His Silk-Bone Soft Sword had been forged by a renowned Master blacksmith, famed for its ability to deflect and absorb kinetic force. He never expected it to shatter into fragments under

Chapter 148: Secret Technique – Twist-Twist Recovery! “What kind of blade is that?!” Shi Qing roared, his eyes squeezed shut against the burning agony. His Silk-Bone Soft Sword had been forged by a renowned Master blacksmith, famed for its ability to deflect and absorb kinetic force. He never expected it to shatter into fragments under

Chapter 149: Interrogating Shi Qing Screech—! A shrill cry tore through the canopy. Both men glanced up simultaneously. A massive hunting eagle was locked in a dive, talons outstretched toward Su Jin. Su Jin didn’t even blink. He snatched the bird mid-dive by its throat, snapped its neck with a crisp crack, and tossed the

Chapter 150: Brimming with Life “Drop the act!” Shi Qing roared. “I’m your prisoner, I’ll admit to the charges! Yes, I skimmed the city’s repair funds! Yes, I embezzled the silver! But I never touched a single copper of my soldiers’ pay!” “And what exactly has your Tanyu Sect done? Nothing but bewitch the Emperor

Chapter 151: Learning Inner Strength “Make it stop! Just make it stop!” Shi Qing’s panic spiraled into sheer terror. The battle-hardened veteran finally broke, his voice pitching into a shrill, undignified scream. Su Jin casually popped a few over-the-counter digestive tablets from a foil blister pack and shoved them into the general’s mouth. “That’s enough.

Chapter 152: Mastering New Power! “You already cultivate the Tanyu Sect’s arts, yet you wish to learn Inner Strength…” Lu Mingxuan cut him off immediately. “Just teach him the forms. He holds the Immortal’s blessing; he’ll absorb it fast enough.” “Is that so…” Shi Qing scrutinized Su Jin, his gaze sweeping up and down. “Strip

Chapter 153: Delicious Roast Eagle Meat from Another World “The Immortal’s blessing. This is the true weight of the Immortal’s blessing!” Lu Mingxuan leaned close to the paralyzed Shi Qing, his voice an awed, frantic whisper. “Do you see it now? The terrifying scope of the Immortal’s power. Our decades of blood and sweat look

Chapter 154: Night Talk “Crap!” Hearing Shi Qing’s agonizing howl, the remaining four immediately connected the dots. Knives flashed as they frantically scraped the remaining roasted meat from their bowls. Tossing the incriminating bones into the dirt, they clutched their food and scrambled into the safety of the RV. “Stop chewing, you bastards!” Shi Qing

Chapter 155: Banter by the Pool The following morning broke clear and punishingly bright. The five crew members stepped out of the climate-controlled RV one by one, feeling remarkably refreshed. Breakfast rations had been consumed. It was time to breach the mountain perimeter. Shi Qing stood with his hands resting on his hips, his brow

Chapter 156: Exposing the Female Identity “Filling the water tank won’t take long. Why drag us out here to suffer? It’s rare to find a cool spot.” Lu Mingxuan complained, swinging a palm to cleave through the dense, humid branches of the forest. Shi Qing sneered coldly. “In a hostile zone, the most comfortable places

Chapter 157: Artificial Respiration, a Wild Suzai? Hauling Du Wenyan’s dead weight onto the muddy shore, Su Jin gave the slender soldier a long, scrutinizing look. He shot a weary, deadpan glare at the overcast sky, then slapped both palms flat against her sternum. The revelation of her true gender was jarring. Water plastered the

Chapter 158: Super Spin Spin Spin “Mmph! Mmmph!!” Yun Lian’s muffled protests echoed off the stone walls. The woman, cinching a bandage tight around her bleeding hip, shot her a venomous glare. “Shut it, you little rat! I’m saving your life! Keep whining and I’ll toss you back into the drink.” “Getting caught by the

Chapter 159: The Succubus Unleashes Her Divine Might The Black Spine Mandrill’s most glaring, massive weakness was utterly exposed, and the beast possessed zero vigilance against the glowing ethereal halos. Without the slightest hitch, the five-Vein Neijin-level expert’s Qi Binding Ring perfectly snared the giant, swinging pendulum between the beast’s legs! “Gah!!!” Two more rings

Chapter 160: Master Su Loves Animals “Get up.” Su Jin reached down, hauling Du Wenyan out of the freezing water with a single, brutal pull. He jerked a thumb over his shoulder. “Yunlian is back there. Gagged and out cold, but she should be fine.” Du Wenyan scrambled forward, rushing to the makeshift dog bed

Chapter 161: The Demonic Den Tanyu Sect Su Jin furrowed his brow, his hand pressing firmly down on the struggling puppy. “Take a seat, you two,” he ordered. “We have a rather unique situation to discuss.” Shi Qing cast another appraising look over the captive before giving a curt nod and settling into a chair.

Chapter 162: Fierce Argument, New Member Joins the Team “Indeed, there were disciples who caught feelings for the Suzai and even helped them break out…” Lu Mingxuan’s voice trailed off, hollow and defensive. “Beasts!” Su Jin, Shi Qing, and Du Wenyan cursed in unison, their voices low and venomous. Wu Zhifei’s expression hardened instantly, her

Chapter 163: Persuading Wu Zhifei Lu Mingxuan and Shi Qing remained outside the RV, striking matches in the damp chill to light up another round of cigarettes. Su Jin stepped back into the cabin alone. Wu Zhifei and the dog were slumped exactly where he had left them, their expressions totally vacant, visibly reeling from

Chapter 164: Cohabiting Man and Woman “I have to share a bed with him?” Wu Zhifei grimaced, her voice strained. “I refuse. I can just sleep on the floor.” “You can see for yourself, this RV only has so much square footage. Those two imperial lapdogs are sleeping in the living room. If you take

Chapter 165: The Struggling Shen Yufeng The night wore on, leaving the RV bathed in heavy silence. Yun Lian was dead to the world, sprawled right on top of the dog. Wu Zhifei absentmindedly massaged the dog’s paw. Both she and Gungun lay wide awake, staring out the window at the pale, sterile glow of

Chapter 166: Both Sides Make Contact! Inside the RV, Su Jin bobbed his head, humming along to the heavy bass vibrating through his headphones. “..I just want someone to listen to the misery of this road, but when the words reach my lips, only silence remains..” In the rear lounge, the rest of the crew—plus

Chapter 167: The Hongmen Banquet The two sides were separated by about twenty yards. Zhao Yuanliang gritted his teeth and hissed, “Is that Su Jin… Young Master Su ahead?” “Holy shit, there are people in the shit!” “Sounds like they’re calling for Su Jin? They mean you, right?” Lu Mingxuan, Du Wenyan, and the rest

Chapter 168: Shen Yufeng’s Counterattack! “Hyah! Hyah!!” On the official highway, a squad of riders spurred their mounts, kicking up blinding pillars of dust. Shi Qing rode point. His horsemanship was unparalleled, setting a blistering pace. The rest of the group bit down on his trail, struggling to keep up. After requisitioning fresh horses from

Chapter 169: Divine Soldiers Descend from Heaven! The sword’s edge gleamed like frost, tearing through the heavy velvet curtain. Shen Yufeng lunged upward, his blade carving a silver arc through the air. The heavy oak table shattered, wine bowls exploded into ceramic shrapnel, and the tip of his sword lunged straight for Zhao Peng’s face!

Chapter 170: Finally Meeting the Client What monumental stupidity did I commit to offend everyone from the top down? “Why is this happening? I demand an explanation!” Zhao Peng roared, despair bleeding into his voice. “Explain my ass!” Shi Qing sneered. “Do the powers that be need to justify their grand strategy to the likes

Chapter 171: Full Team Meeting “What do you mean this isn’t your first apocalypse?” Shen Yufeng’s fragile composure snapped. He shot to his feet, demanding answers. “It’s simple. The vast universe is not limited to a single world. Every star in the sky could be a world, and not only this world is facing an

Chapter 172: You Are Planning a Rebellion! According to the oldest historical archives, the first recorded Magic Spring had erupted from a single, isolated ravine. Over the centuries, the anomalies multiplied, spreading outward like a creeping infection from that patient zero. The habitable borders for humanity and all other living creatures had been violently eroded,

Chapter 173: I Can Also Be Emperor At least someone still stood by his side, unpoisoned by this archaic loyalty to the crown. The thought offered Su Jin a sliver of bleak comfort. He shifted his gaze to Wu Zhifei and Gungun. “Hitting the Tanyu Sect. You in?” “We hit them!” Wu Zhifei didn’t miss

Chapter 174: The Decision “Ah… it’s difficult.” Shen Yufeng stared at the ceiling, exhaling a long, heavy breath. “Why me? Why must the weight of this choice fall on my shoulders?” Su Jin smiled, the expression cold and pragmatic. “I understand the burden, Brother Shen. But we are all trapped in the same snare. I

Chapter 175: Good Days “Massive grain shipments are en route! The faster we clear the mountain, the heavier the Crown’s rewards! If this project is completed within a hundred days, every resident in the city receives a bonus: ten pieces of silver and a hundred pounds of rice per head!” “If the vaults pass imperial

Chapter 176: The 100-Day Countdown One hundred days until the apocalypse. The backyard of the Governor’s Mansion. Su Jin let out a ragged howl as the impact launched him backward, a visceral arc of fresh blood trailing in his wake. He slammed violently into a jagged rockery before careening into the courtyard’s koi pond. A

Chapter 177: The RV’s Mission “Ugh… can we avoid being so crude?” Su Jin’s brows knitted together in exasperation. “What now?” “Little Du probably has a thing for you. Over the last few days, a few of the dishes he’s served have been downright unpalatable, and he always insists you try them first… I bet

Chapter 178: The Final Entrustment Thirty days until the apocalypse. “Hah!” Shi Qing roared, kicking up a spray of dirt as he launched forward like a cannonball. The long spear swept down, the heavy iron shaft whistling as it cleaved the air; before the tip even struck, the sheer atmospheric pressure ripped a thunderous sonic

Chapter 179: Warmth Before the Decisive Battle Nineteen days until the Apocalypse. In the designated beast-rearing pens of Nine-Light City, seven massive avian predators stood restlessly, outfitted with heavy, custom-forged saddles. These were the transports Su Jin’s vanguard would ride to infiltrate the Royal Capital. However, since these apex predators were never bred for domestic

Chapter 180: Countdown to the Nuclear Detonation Two days until the apocalypse. Deep in the forested outskirts of the Royal Capital, the squad gathered around a massive excavation, staring down at the RV parked at the bottom. Su Jin sat in the driver’s seat, his calloused hands gripping the steering wheel as a tempest of

Chapter 181: Nuclear Detonation! The Gambit Pays Off The night was profound. The disciples standing watch on the high peaks of Tanyu Mountain peered into the abyssal distance, trading idle whispers to ward off the chill. Below them, the sprawling expanse of the Royal Capital slumbered in a fragile tranquility, entirely ignorant of the annihilation

Chapter 182: The Royal Lineage Extinguished “Move. Reinforce the perimeter.” Ignoring the unconscious bodies littering the floor, Su Jin spun on his heel and sprinted out of the hall, Lu Mingxuan hot on his heels. Barely any time had passed; Shi Qing and the others remained concealed in the shadows, bows drawn, waiting for the

Chapter 183: King Meets King My sons… The Emperor’s composure shattered. He clutched his head and unleashed an anguished, feral roar, the violent surge of profound energy forcing a mouthful of blood up his throat to spray into the night as a fine crimson mist. Lu Chengyun’s mind spun into chaotic denial. A drop of

Chapter 184: The Ultimate Emperor, Dual-Path Seven-Vein! The Emperor’s gaze swept across the expansive hall. Aside from the massive stone pillars, the room offered zero cover; an ambush here could only hide a handful of operatives. With two Six-Vein masters running point, the tactical situation was manageable. Even if the enemy had set traps and

Chapter 185: Simple Physics Seeing Su Jin closing the distance with a murderous gleam in his eye, the Emperor executed a flawless tactical retreat. This evasion wasn’t born of fear; he didn’t believe for a second that he was outmatched. It was the sheer anomaly of his opponent’s methodology that gave him pause. The shockwave

Chapter 186: King of Water Combat, Golden Rotation! The combat blade thrust forward. The Emperor torqued his spine, narrowly dodging the lethal strike, his eyes burning with almost volcanic fury. This environment, these bizarre physics—every single element of this fight defied natural law, stripping him of his martial adaptations. Worse, he was still actively burning

Chapter 187: Bloodbath at Death’s Door, The Stage Curtain Falls The Emperor’s ragged scream severed the chaotic din of the great hall for a second time. Every eye in the cavernous space snapped toward the sound. Watching his prey retreat, Su Jin rode the final fumes of his combat adrenaline, driving a brutal fist straight

Chapter 188: Stalemate “Don’t be ridiculous!” A fresh column of blood erupted from the Emperor’s chest, his aristocratic features twisting into a grotesque mask. “You butchered my bloodline, and you have the nerve to offer me pity?! I will have you flayed alive and sliced into a thousand pieces!” Lu Chengyun and Shen Yuan practically

Chapter 189: The Demon Spring Annihilates the World Earthquake! He had predicted the tectonic shift would precede the Demon Spring’s eruption… Was it actually happening? Lu Chengyun and Shen Yuan exchanged a heavy glance, a phantom chill creeping up their spines. The anomalies were stacking up. On the polished floor, the unconscious Wu Zhifei groaned,

Chapter 190: Mission Complete, The Company Takes Over The night above Tanyu Mountain was an absolute, suffocating black. The only sound was the howling wind snapping the summit flags against their poles. Standing at the precipice, the group stared down at the lowlands below, their souls utterly hollowed out by the view. In the dead

Chapter 191: The Final Farewell Thirty seconds later, the golden rain ceased, and the sky cleared into an endless, pristine azure. Su Jin slowly lowered his hand, casting his gaze back down to the devastated lowlands. The land had been purified. The Magic Springs had stopped erupting, and the flowing calamity springs were completely cleansed.

Chapter 192: An Abrupt Kiss Goodbye “What? You’re actually leaving?” Du Wenyan staggered back two steps, the strength seemingly drained from his bones. “The world is already like this. Where else can you go?” “The Immortal gave me a new mission… I don’t really know my exact destination either.” Su Jin offered a helpless shrug.

Chapter 193: A Glimpse of Fu Qingdai “Hah…” Leaning his weight against the heavy redwood door, Su Jin dragged in several deep, shuddering breaths. The space beyond the threshold had morphed into an extravagantly opulent golden hall, practically indistinguishable from an emperor’s palace. Directly ahead sat a massive, sweeping dragon throne. Above it hung a

Chapter 194: Why Is There an Ultraman in Xinhuo’s Warehouse? “How are things? Are the clients all in good condition?” Seeing Su Jin’s consciousness return to his body, the Steward asked. Su Jin’s expression was slightly heavy as he nodded. “The kid is quite foolish, just knows how to play on the phone.” “Steward, it

Chapter 195: The Simulation Gravity Chamber The Steward actually looked quite aggravated. “What else was I supposed to do? I attempted to decline multiple times, but I simply couldn’t deflect her! Your mother literally threatened to track me down and slap me over the phone!” “Especially after she found out you have money now. She’s

Chapter 196: The Omnipotent Steward’s Full-Service Upgrade “It’s not that simple. Your mental pressure is immense. The room’s inherent properties also cause some latent stress to accumulate in your body. Excessive training will kill you,” the Steward stated smoothly. “Furthermore, this room was modified from scrap. You’ve just pushed it to its absolute limit. I

Chapter 197: Anomaly, Haunting Outside the office building, the midday sun hammered down. Su Jin squinted against the glare. This time, he hadn’t taken a portal; he walked out through the front doors like a normal person. The Steward’s pocket dimension physically connected to a high-rise, hidden away on a vacant floor with terrible rental

Chapter 198: The King! Su Jin kept his head down, mechanically tearing into a crust of bread. He swiped his phone screen with his free hand, dialing Lei Dong. A few seconds later, Lei Dong’s video feed connected. Su Jin immediately asked, “Leizi, what’s your status?” “Damn, Brother Hui, what the hell is that aesthetic?”

Chapter 199: What Do You Do for a Living, Brother Hui? “Front desk? I need a rollaway bed… charge it to room 2608.” Su Jin had barely hung up the phone when Lei Dong offered a bitter smile. “Brother Hui, why bother with an extra bed for a king-size suite? We can just share. If

Chapter 200: Ghost Appears The sky shifted from a clear azure to the suffocating pitch-black of night. Draped in a cheap yellow Daoist robe, Lei Dong stared anxiously at the barricaded television, his feet tapping a frantic rhythm against the floorboards. Su Jin pushed open the bathroom door, a white towel hitched low around his

Chapter 201: International Embarrassment Battle “What are you getting at?” Su Jin looked up, his eyes narrowing. “Think about it. You watched my original copy and established visual contact. You even achieved kinetic interaction. If I surrender that disc to the government… the state apparatus watches it and neutralizes her with overwhelming firepower. Wouldn’t that

Chapter 202: A Bizarre Injustice Through the Ages “You fiend! Where do you think you’re going!” Su Jin vaulted into the air, his naked body catching the draft. The corridor was too narrow. The peach wood sword was brittle, and his hidden blade was impossible to conceal in his current… state. His current vector was

Chapter 203: The Misunderstood Life of Master Su Inside the patrol car, Su Jin and Lei Dong stared dead-eyed at the metal grating. The triumph of purging a ghost had completely evaporated. They had survived the night, only to face total social annihilation. Lei Dong was coping. Su Jin, however, possessed zero remaining dignity. Halfway

Chapter 204: A New Dungeon? Haixing City, Shengde Academy. The classroom was a cacophony of noise. Students in crisp uniforms clustered in small groups, their idle chatter and laughter bleeding together into a low roar. The blackboard at the front of the room was dense with intricate chalk diagrams. Only one person sat upright in

Chapter 205: Master Su’s Leisurely Vacation “It was attempted rape…” Zhang Guanhai’s voice was paper-thin. “But years have passed, and his teaching credentials have been reinstated.” “He coerced and gaslit his victim until she suffered a complete mental collapse. My former roommate was permanently crippled by the Black Cards he trafficked. His presence at Xuanzheng

Chapter 206: A Brand New Instance, Shengde Academy Su Jin’s seven-day vacation ended, and he returned home. Everything at home was stable as usual, but his parents had clearly been led astray by the sudden large expenditure on traffic, bursting with a strong entrepreneurial spirit. They spent every day huddled together studying how to build

Chapter 207: Yes, I Am Su Li Shengde Academy. Another school. The client was inside, and a student at that? Su Jin snapped back to reality and scanned his surroundings. Concrete and asphalt stretched out into a typical urban streetscape. Familiar cultures inevitably put his mind at ease. He had drawn a good hand this

Chapter 208: Teacher Su Su Jin clicked his tongue, offering a slight shake of his head. “I have no issues.” “Good. We finalize the contract immediately.

The situation had entirely deviated from his initial projections; he had somehow seamlessly usurped another man’s

Chapter 209: Su Li Exits, Card Civilization Outside the academy gates, Su Jin leaned against the concrete wall, a cigarette dangling from his lips as he surveyed the street. He still hadn’t fully decoded the principal’s erratic behavior. He lacked critical intel, and the key to unraveling it undoubtedly lay with the real Su Li.

Chapter 210: Mastering the Card Power System Leaning back in his ergonomic chair, the heavy textbook resting on his lap, Su Jin’s heart rate refused to settle. The sense of déjà vu radiating from this dimension was almost overwhelming. It was undeniably a civilization built entirely on a Card-based operational framework, yet its surface aesthetics

Chapter 211: The King of Card Making! Returning to his dwelling in the afternoon, Su Jin immediately brought forth a vast array of materials. From the pile, he extracted a stack of pristine blank cards and an exquisite carving knife, its tip forged from an unidentified gemstone. Finally, he seated himself at the desk, withdrew

Chapter 212: Group Discussion on the Doomsday Plan “Fool! Do you think his brain is damaged?” “Still standing there like a wooden post. I’ve never seen anyone so lacking in perception.

Chapter 213: Who Told You to Read Other Novels!? A filler lecture was successfully muddled through, and he had essentially familiarized himself with every disciple in the hall. Su Jin stood upon the dais, feeling rather weary as he observed the highly spirited students below. “Disciples, that concludes today’s lecture. I expect you to treat

Chapter 214: Substituting Oneself for Master Su, Ascending as a Paragon of Men Observing his reaction, Su Jin felt a profound clarity within his heart. Glancing at his surroundings, he removed his thick-framed spectacles and executed a swift motion, slicking his hair back as if wielding an invisible pomade. Following this, he shed his outer

Chapter 215: Steady Progress, Covert Observation For five days, Su Jin’s life remained entirely peaceful. He had gained a deeper comprehension of this realm’s society. Regarding the true nature of his identity, he had essentially grasped the overarching picture with absolute clarity. The Su Li whose vessel he had possessed was unequivocally a scoundrel. Not

Chapter 216: First Battle Against a Card Master “Robbery?” Su Jin’s eyes widened as a chuckle escaped his lips. “Heh… Good skills, sir. Since when have you been keeping an eye on me?” It was the dead of night; aside from the natural light of the stars and moon, there were virtually no other light

Chapter 217: At the Principal’s Home… As the third consecutive wave of attacks descended, Su Jin abandoned all resistance, diving behind a heavy steel coil for cover. The steel chimed and clattered under a barrage of strikes for a long moment before the night finally returned to an eerie calm. His expression dark, Su Jin

Chapter 218: I Am Here to Discuss a Grand Enterprise “You recruited a man like Su Li into our academy without even considering verifying his background?” The elderly Shimu beside him glared at Zhang Guanhai, her brows arched in fury. Zhang Guanhai sighed helplessly, “This man has been missing for a long time. After all,

Chapter 219: Joining Jin Yixin “Lord Dragon, how about you and I forge an alliance? We pool our strength, and I will surrender half my spoils to you. What do you say?” Su Jin smiled. Lord Dragon slowly leaned back into the plush leather of his sofa. Bringing a cigarette to his lips, he sized

Chapter 220: Operation Wolf Hunt Su Jin smiled, paying no heed to their mockery as he picked up the dossiers on the table and continued his review. Mute Wolf, the sovereign of Bitter Bamboo Street.
