Each of the nine dragon maidens possesses extraordinary abilities.

Lu Yueyuan's focus right now is still on jealousy.

Lu Yueyuan's two greatest enemies are Ling Suxian, the eldest of the Dragon Maidens, and the Four Gods' Companion. The Four Gods' Companion is a representative chosen by the four gods. He will be the executor of the grand plan, and if anything happens to the Dragon Maidens, he will not hesitate to replace them and complete the grand plan.

Like Ling Suxian, this person clearly understood that the world was constantly simulating and repeating itself under Lu Yueyuan's influence. Therefore, their actions were different each time, and Lu Yueyuan, who was unaware of this at first, suffered greatly.

Ling Suxian's disgusting fate had worn Lu Yueyuan down to near despair before he even saw her face. Meanwhile, the Four Gods Travelling Together could not only mobilize the full power of the four gods, but also use all their individual abilities.

He possesses the combat power and offensive capabilities of the Heavenly Venerable of Killing to Attain Dao, the magic and strategic planning of the Nine Transformations Heavenly Mystery Ancestor, the healing and rebirth abilities of the Great Virtue of Life-Giving True Monarch, and the illusions and charm of the Fairy of Six Desires and Wonderful Sounds. He's basically a combination of numerical monsters and mechanical monsters. In his previous life, this guy only appeared in previews; the game hadn't even been released yet, but the developers had already portrayed him as an incredibly overpowered being. When Lu Yueyuan, after transmigrating, saw this, he thought, "Damn, this is truly an overpowered being."

Lu Yueyuan didn't know who was stronger between him and Ling Suxian, but they were both stronger than him.

Now you know why Lu Yueyuan was in despair, right? The opponents he had to face were: his childhood sweetheart who suddenly betrayed him and locked him in the basement; a historian who had been hiding his trump card and still didn't know what his powers were; a righteous judge who could make rules and judgments at will and even shut down the system; a super tanky turtle who would repay a hundredfold with a single punch; a non-human bodhisattva who was supposed to be testing him but was actually torturing him under the scorching sun; a morbid white-haired girl who liked to play with others' fear and enjoy torment; an ultimate numerical monster whose every word represented a number that could make the world's will tremble with a single punch; and a blind musician who controlled his destiny and made him play the piano with his left foot stepping on his right foot, yet still sounded terrible.

Add to that the agents of each of the four gods, then the companions of the four gods who combine numerical values ​​and mechanics, and finally the four gods themselves.

These are the opponents you will face, and you have a system that chats with you and loves eating candied hawthorns, which can help you continuously simulate restarts.

You can play this game, but once you start, you won't say a word.

Lu Yueyuan had wanted to quit the game for a long time. In the simulation, when the Four Gods appeared for the first time and tried to take him down, he even cried.

Brother, is there anything else you need to do?

I thought you were just making an appearance in the Foresight section and that you weren't actually there, but I never expected that after the time travel, the Four Gods would actually have a fellow traveler.

The Four Gods are truly something else. They sabotage each other, yet their representatives in the mortal world can still choose a common representative. No wonder they've been able to govern the Nine Peaks Sect for so many years; they're truly birds of a feather.

Fortunately, now...

Lu Yueyuan had accepted the despairing reality.

This is the last time, no matter what. In fact, he wasn't 100% confident that he could defeat Ling Suxian and the Four Gods. He could only do his best to deal with them and build a stage for the Holy Emperor to appear when the Ruins of Return merged.

The Four Gods... he really couldn't solve it.

So if possible, he still didn't want to break with the Holy Emperor. For the last time, he genuinely wanted to cooperate with the Holy Emperor. The demise of the system left him with no choice but to take a desperate gamble, and he was willing to put all his eggs in the Holy Emperor's basket.

Hidden cards and betrayal... it's best to avoid them if possible.

Lu Yueyuan looked up, his hands still busy, and gazed at the arrogance not far away.

Arrogance has run out of steam, and more and more parts of it are decaying.

Even so, she still forcibly activated Lu Yueyuan's magic to block all the dead souls and prevent them from rushing up.

Lu Yueyuan shook his head.

There are still four days left until the end. If Arrogance can't figure out the secrets of his magic, she definitely won't be able to keep going.

Each of the dead souls that are created carries the aura of death. Once this aura spreads, arrogance cannot guide it, and death is only a matter of time.

In that case, Lu Yueyuan had no choice but to take action; he couldn't just watch Arrogance die here.

Arrogance's talent is indeed lacking; her comprehension is never fully utilized in normal times. In Lu Yueyuan's simulation, Arrogance's potential only erupts at the last moment.

Although it was useless, Lu Yueyuan still defeated him instantly.

But this made him realize that arrogance was actually a talent, but she was too insecure. The repressive environment she had grown up in made her a conflicted person. She simply couldn't openly and confidently admit that she had shining qualities. Her cowardice caused her talent to retreat. Since her master said she was useless, then her body also became useless.

But how can there be truly useless trash?

Lu Yueyuan watched the arrogant figure fighting.

You've probably forgotten... In the simulation, you roared at me that there are no truly useless humans, that every human has their own unique qualities. Wasn't it because you believed this that you drew your sword against me when I had already reached the state of oneness with the Dao? Now, can you still firmly believe this and draw your sword for me?

puff.

Arrogance spat out a mouthful of black blood.

The long battle left her body aching all over. Even with the help of elixirs, she felt the heavy evil in her soul. The corrosive power of death had penetrated deep into her bones, and her hand holding the knife trembled slightly.

How long has it been now...?

She felt like she was in a long prison with no end in sight.

Turning her head slightly, she saw Lu Yueyuan still drawing, while Jealousy was doing something else, sitting in the mechanical contraption with his head in his hands. Was he too scared?

Arrogantly, he asked, "Holy Emperor, can I... can I still do it?"

no respond.

Here, even Lu Yueyuan couldn't communicate with the Holy Emperor, let alone her.

The deathly silent earth rumbled and throbbed, as if something was bulging.

A pale hand gripped the ground, and someone crawled out of the ground, looked up, and grinned arrogantly.

Arrogance was chilling; it was a dead soul that looked exactly like her, another... her.

Spirit, mind, shadow, darkness, destruction, authenticity, dream... The power of the True Self Emperor cannot be exercised in the outside world, but here, His power is the law of nature.

Don't blame children for being afraid of their shadows, because the shadow is the prison of reality, the tentacle of death, always with you.

Countless arrogances sprouted from the ground.

Her arrogant hand gripping the knife trembled; this scene shook her to her core. She saw her in many different ways: hiding behind a pillar watching her older siblings; wanting to greet her father but too afraid to approach; praying patiently in the courtyard for her spiritual practice…

She lost her courage and suddenly wanted to surrender. She wanted to turn around and yell at Lu Yueyuan. She gave up and couldn't hold on any longer.

Lu Yueyuan, that devil, gave her an impossible task.

I can't hold on any longer, no matter what...

"No," she heard herself muttering, "it's not time to give up yet."

She raised her knife, assuming a fighting stance.

Chapter 105: Once Again, Hatred Arises From Fate (6k)

Long ago, Arrogance encountered a young girl.

She participated in the auction at the most famous auction house in Yanzhou, concealing her family identity. Her generous spending still earned her a prestigious seat on the second floor. Although there was no private room, it still represented a certain status and position.

Sitting next to her was a young girl who looked quite young. She wore a mask and had a Bagua diagram draped over half of her body. She was probably also a cultivator, but Arrogance couldn't sense her specific cultivation level.

As the auction items passed by, she didn't see anything good and started to feel drowsy. Suddenly, she noticed a noise next to her and instinctively looked over, only to find the girl looking over as well.

She fiddled with a tortoise shell: "Looks like there aren't any good items left to bid on. How boring. I thought I could find a bargain."

Arrogance reminded her: "You can't cheat with magical artifacts at the auction."

The girl smiled and showed the tortoise shell in her hand to Arrogance.

The rough tortoise shell was covered with many cracks, but it was just an ordinary tortoise shell, not some kind of magical artifact as Arrogant had imagined.

Arrogantly returned the tortoise shell to the girl, who smacked her lips and said, "Sigh, there's nothing good in it."

Just as the girl had said, the auction house brought out increasingly inferior items until the very end, and the so-called highlight items were far from what they had advertised.

Even the arrogant one sighed. The girl asked her, "It's one thing for me to feel sorry, since I finally managed to get in here. But why are you, a wealthy young lady like you, sighing?"

He looked at her arrogantly and strangely: "How do you know I'm a rich young lady?"

"I'm hungry, can you buy me something to eat, sister? I'll answer your question very seriously," the girl said.

"You think you can just freeload off the food and drinks when you get a seat on the second floor?" he said arrogantly.

“This was a gift from someone,” the girl said. “I have the ability to divine the heavens and the unpredictable ways of ghosts and gods. Many cultivators come to me to ask questions. Some people don’t give me spirit stones, but they give me other things, such as tickets to the second floor. I thought I might as well take it and come in to take a look.”

Arrogance then took a serious look at the girl. Divination was a rare skill among all cultivators, and he never expected that the girl would be a diviner.

The girl took off her mask, revealing a pretty and cute face, and smiled sweetly: "If you'd like to treat me to a meal, I can also tell your fortune."

Arrogance pondered for a moment, then nodded. The girl's face was so cute that it made people lower their guard. Arrogance wasn't worried that the other party would harm her. As long as the place to eat was in the city, it would be her territory, and the other party couldn't do anything about it.

Moreover, she has indeed been feeling down lately because of some things, so it's good that someone is willing to chat with her.

After the auction ended, they left through the back door and walked along the city streets. The girl said, "Actually, I don't really like Yanzhou. This city is too hot, it doesn't snow in winter, and there are poisonous snakes, mosquitoes, and miasma. Although I have spiritual energy protecting me, it's still not a pleasant place."

He arrogantly asked, "Aren't you from Yanzhou?"

The girl laughed and said, "No, haha, sister, you're not targeting people from other places, are you? I've been to Qingzhou before, and when the people there heard that I was from another state, they tried every means to squeeze money out of me."

He arrogantly replied, "I won't do that."

"Oh right, because you look very kind. So, what are you planning to treat me to?"

Arrogance thought for a moment and said, "Want some roast chicken?"

The girl looked at her curiously.

He asked arrogantly, "What's wrong? Don't you like it?"

The girl shook her head: "No, no, I'm fine with anything, I'm just surprised that you would treat me to this."

He said arrogantly, "What's so surprising about that? I really like roast chicken. By the way, what's your name?"

The girl replied, "Names don't really matter. I never leave my name and I don't pry into other people's names. I'll call you 'older sister,' and you can call me 'younger sister.'"

"Alright, little sister." Arrogantly, she felt something was off. "Do you want roast chicken? You can still change your mind before we get there."

"It's okay, it's okay. I said I'm fine with anything. I just said that because I thought you would treat me to some pastries from a restaurant or something."

He said arrogantly, "Those are expensive and not tasty. If you want to eat them, you can go."

The girl looked at her with surprise again: "I didn't expect you to care about this."

Arrogantly, he said, "Of course we care. We spent so much silver, and the food was terrible. Some of the more expensive options even cost spirit stones, and all we got was ordinary food. This kind of thing is of no benefit to us. Since it's just to satisfy our cravings, why don't I find a better restaurant?"

"Yes, what you said makes sense!" the girl said sweetly.

The constant calling her "sister" made Arrogance feel a little smug. She had never had such a novel experience before, and even wondered if she should bring the girl into the Seven Deadly Sins organization she was currently organizing.

They soon arrived at the roast chicken shop that Arrogance had mentioned. The shop was deep in an alley and not many people were there. They chose to sit down in a corner by the window, and Arrogance asked the waiter to order two roast chickens.

The girl said, "No need for alcohol. I'd feel bad if you got drunk and used your spiritual energy to dissipate the alcohol."

Arrogantly, he said, "I wasn't planning on serving wine either. You look very young. Have you become a cultivator at such a young age?"

"That's right, but I don't have much talent. I've only completed the basic fasting and qi-induction techniques. I can't do anything else yet," the girl said.

"That's still impressive. Although I'm at the Dao Realm, I guess that's all I'll ever be. You're more talented than me." The arrogant man poured tea for the girl.

"Why do you say that?" the girl asked.

The arrogant man paused in his teapot-holding hand. "One must know one's own limitations."

"I see that you have an extraordinary bearing, and you will definitely become a remarkable person in the future," the girl said.

"Thank you for your kind words." Arrogantly, she put down the teapot, picked up her teacup, and sipped slowly; drinking tea before eating was her habit. After a few sips, she put it down and asked, "Where are your family? Traveling around at such a young age, are you perhaps a disciple of some sect?"

The girl smiled and asked, "What do you think, older sister?"

"The only power that knows divination should be that one family..." he said arrogantly, looking at the girl. "But they probably wouldn't let their disciples roam around freely, and besides..."

"And what else, sister?"

“They generally don’t speak human language, and they’re not as likable as you. My father liked to consult them for divination.” Arrogance picked up his teacup again, using the tea to suppress his turbulent emotions.

Soon, two roast chickens were served. The girl ate them with relish, her eating manners not barbaric, but she never stopped. She gradually turned the roast chicken in front of her into bones, and then turned the arrogant roast chicken into bones.

Arrogance was left to her, so she ate two roast chickens without any hesitation.

He arrogantly said, "Roasted chicken is not beneficial to cultivation, but it's still quite satisfying to eat it once in a while."

The girl smiled and nodded: "Sister is right, the roast chicken here tastes the best I've ever had. Ah~ even cultivators need to enjoy themselves, otherwise cultivation is no fun at all."

He nodded arrogantly: "Yes, people always need to pursue some fun."

After they'd almost finished the roast chicken, he arrogantly asked, "Would you like more?"

The girl shook her head: "No one likes a greedy, naughty child. This much is enough. I should keep my promise and tell my sister's fortune."

He asked arrogantly, "Is it a method of divination?"

The girl smiled and said, "Yes, but it's not the method of the powerful forces you mentioned. This method is one I created myself, and it's very effective. It can be used to find secret treasures and answer questions."

Arrogance laughed: "So powerful? Do you know more than the gods?"

The girl said, "Asking the gods and asking me are really no different~"

That's quite an arrogant tone, as if the girl were some kind of deity's representative. "So, do you want it here, or to my place?" she said haughtily.

The girl smiled and said, "Of course I'll go to your place, sister. It would be even better if you could let me stay for the night."

Arrogance bought a courtyard in the largest town in Yanzhou. She decorated it according to her own ideas, planning a training ground, a council hall, a gathering hall, and so on. After buying the courtyard, she moved out of her family. Most of the resources she had exchanged for from the family over the years were piled up here. Arrogance planned to use this place as the future base of the Seven Deadly Sins. The young girl was the first person she invited; now she wanted to test whether the girl was willing to join her.
