Chapter 1: The Female Lead Is Too Invincible
In the Eastern Wastelands of the Immortal Domain, at the ancestral land of the Ning family.
The clouds obscured the sky, and many immortal peaks rose high, the aura of the Great Dao was thick.
Inside a grand hall, red silk hung from the beams, and joyous candles lit up the hall. It was the wedding scene.
âPah, Ning Fan, a person like you is a waste of air. Donât even think about me liking you. Even my useless sister Su Wanwan marrying you would count as you climbing up a branch,â Su Xuanling said, crossing her arms and looking at Ning Fan with a lofty expression.
She indeed had some beauty, with long hair like a waterfall, skin as white as snow, and eyes like cold stars, giving people an aloof, untouchable feeling.
“Ah, yes, yes, youâre the greatest in the heavens and on earth. Who could ever match you?” Ning Fan didnât argue with Su Xuanling. When dealing with a fool, the best method is not to reason with them but to tell them they are right, so they can stay foolish forever.
He had already been in this world for three years, and had long since let go of everything, not caring at all.
The marriage between the Ning and Su families was originally for Ning Fan to marry Su Xuanling. However, a year ago, Su Xuanlingâs spiritual root had transformed into a top-tier heavenly spiritual root, and she insisted on breaking the engagement and refused to marry. In the end, the Su family decided that her younger sister, Su Wanwan, would take her place.
Su Xuanling looked down on him, and he didnât care for Su Xuanling either.
She had a high and mighty attitude, was he obligated to serve her?
Who would want a “grandmother” like that in their house?
Even if she had a top-tier heavenly spiritual root, what does that have to do with him? What use was it to him?
Opposite Ning Fan stood a delicate girl, adorned in a phoenix crown and colorful robes, with a gentle and elegant aura, her face exceptionally beautiful, a peerless beauty.
She was Su Wanwan, younger and more beautiful than Su Xuanling. Unfortunately, she was born to Su Bingâs concubine, and her spiritual root was just a mortal one, so the Su family didnât value her.
Ning Fan actually preferred Su Wanwan. Family alliances are about who you marry, so why not marry someone younger and more beautiful?
Even if there was no emotional connection, at least it was pleasing to the eye, and life would be more comfortable.
In his past life, Ning Fan came from an ordinary family. After graduating from university, due to the deteriorating job market, he struggled to find a decent job.
While others took five minutes to reach the youth center, Ning Fan walked for twenty years.
Some things, if you donât have them from birth, youâre destined never to have them.
So, Ning Fan chose to lie flat and became a community security guard, avoiding forty years of hardships.
No house, no car, no girlfriend. His monthly salary was four to five thousand. He spent his time on the job, slacking off. A little money in his pocket, either showing off or getting a foot massage at a club, occasionally avoiding cilantro, life was just too comfortable.
Lying flat for a while felt great, but lying flat forever felt even better.
Maybe the heavens couldn’t stand him living so comfortably, and that’s why they sent him to this immortal cultivation world.
After three years, Ning Fan had a general understanding of this world.
The Ning family and the Su family were ancient clans of the Eastern Wastelands.
In this world, people could cultivate only if they had a spiritual root. The spiritual roots were divided into inferior, mortal, mysterious, heavenly, top-tier heavenly, and immortal roots.
Immortal roots were extremely rare, and a top-tier heavenly spiritual root was enough to make someone one of the greatest geniuses in the Eastern Wastelands.
Ning Fan had a heavenly spiritual root, but that only qualified him to be considered a talented person, nothing special.
Although the ancient families sounded intimidating, in reality, there were not just a thousand such families, but at least eight thousand in the Eastern Wastelands.
Above the ancient families were the eternal families and the immortal families.
Not to mention the vast Immortal Domain, with numerous sects, large sects battling for power, and empires contending for supremacy, there were more forces stronger than the Ning family.
In this immortal cultivation world, to improve one’s strength, aside from talent and effort, various cultivation resources like spiritual herbs, spiritual stones, spiritual liquids, manuals, techniques, and experience were far more important.
The social class was mostly fixed, with almost no way to rise without precious cultivation resources. Even if you had great talent, without these resources, all your efforts would be futile.
After crossing into this world, born into an ordinary family with no extraordinary fortune, Ning Fan decided to lie flat completely and let the concept of “lying flat” guide him.
Two lifetimes of lying flat, double the enjoyment.
Naturally, this caused dissatisfaction from many in the Ning and Su families.
Ning Fan didnât care. No matter what others said, he would continue to lie flat and be lazy.
At that moment, a voice without any emotional color sounded in Ning Fanâs mind.
ăDing! System activated, when the female lead cultivates, she grows stronger. Giving the female lead cultivation resources will yield ten times the return!ă
ăSystem is binding with the female lead!ă
ăSuccessfully bound the female lead Su Wanwan!ă
âDamn, Iâve been lying flat, and now a system shows up?â Ning Fan had no reaction, just waited to see what the system was about.
If the system wasnât to his liking, heâd continue lying flat.
He waited quietly for the next development, but what he heard next was the system cursing.
ăDamn!ă
âHmm? You like grass too? Have you grown the parts yet? You want grass?â
Ning Fan was full of question marks in his head. Was this system even legitimate?
ăSystem detected the female lead is too invincible, upgrading the system!ă
âInvincible? Where is she invincible? Other systems are powerful, but donât talk nonsense. It was difficult enough for me to cross into this world, how about checking your own reasons for that?â
Ning Fan grumbled in his heart, clearly Su Wanwan was just an ordinary mortal spiritual root.
A mortal spiritual root is invincible? What use is this system?
ăDing! System upgrade complete!ă
ăDamn! System detected the female lead Su Wanwan is the reincarnation of an Empress, previously a quasi-Emperor level powerhouse, system forced to upgrade again!ă
âReincarnation of an Empress?â Ning Fan was stunned. In this world, the cultivation realms were from the lowest to the highest: Dao Entry, Dao Enlightenment, Dao Mark, Array Formation, Void Dao, Extreme Dao, Immortal Entry, True Immortal, Golden Immortal, Immortal King, Immortal Sage, Quasi-Emperor, and finally Immortal Emperor.
The last Immortal Emperor appeared ten thousand years ago.
A Quasi-Emperor was the strongest practitioner in this world.
Su Wanwan, with her mortal root, was actually the reincarnation of a Quasi-Immortal Emperor?
Ning Fan was shocked but knew the system detection couldnât be wrong.
ăDing! System upgrade complete!ă
ăDamn! System detected the female lead is dual-eyed, upgrading system again!ă
âYou want more grass?â
ăDing! System upgrade complete!ă
ăDamn! System detected the female lead has Supreme Bone, upgrading system again!ă
âAlright, alright, letâs play it this way? Dual-eyed plus Supreme Bone, as if Iâve never seen these things in novels before!â
ăDing! System upgrade complete!ă
ăDamn! System detected the female lead was a ruthless Immortal Emperor in her previous life, slaughtering millions of alien races outside the Immortal Burial Pass, without blinking an eye. The system must upgrade again!ă
Ning Fan was startled, feeling a chill. He glanced at Su Wanwan, who was standing across from him, obedient and harmless. Could she really have been the ruthless Immortal Emperor who slaughtered millions of alien races without blinking an eye?
After slaughtering so many alien races, would her eyes not dry out?
Ning Fan had a strange thought. What if, tonight in their bridal chamber, Su Wanwan ended up cutting him down too?
When this crossed his mind, Ning Fan felt a sudden chill in his pants.
ăDing! System upgrade complete!ă
ăDamn! âŠâŠă
âWill this ever end? How many more damn âgrassâ are you going to add?â
Ning Fan finally couldnât help but curse at the system in his mind.
