Everything around was pitch black.

Li Muge fell heavily to the ground. She endured the pain and struggled to get up, then lit a tinderbox.

"Where is this place?"

She had clearly fallen into a cave or a trap. Li Muge cast a spell to try and get out, but no matter how she flew, she couldn't escape the invisible barrier.

They could clearly hear Xiao Shaoyao and Mu An calling out, but even when she shouted until her voice was hoarse, they just couldn't hear her.

"What the hell?" Li Muge paced back and forth anxiously.

Suddenly, light came from inside the cave.

Li Muge was now very careful, paying close attention to the path she was on, but unexpectedly, a force from behind pushed her down.

Fortunately, there's a lake below.

Moreover, Li Muge can swim.

But when Li Muge was leisurely swimming upwards, and suddenly found herself staring at a crocodile in the lake, she was utterly devastated.

If she could speak while submerged in the lake, she would have screamed; who could withstand such stimulation?

The crocodile was very satisfied with the food that Li Muge had brought to its door.

He opened his mouth, revealing sharp teeth, and invited Li Muge to sit down.

Li Muge, of course, disagreed.

Then another large crocodile swam over, opened its mouth, and extended an invitation to her.

Driven by a will to survive, Li Muge unleashed her powerful swimming potential, escaping from the jaws of crocodiles several times before finally managing to climb ashore.

"Cough cough cough." Li Muge was soaked to the bone, lying on the shore, not daring to let his guard down for a moment.

Wherever the eye can see.

This must be a cave, with a lake and lotus flowers inside, and a wooden box in the very center, which looks like a treasure.

Don't ask Li Muge how he figured it out.

This ordinary box is protected by a special magic array; it's clearly not something simple.

Most people, upon seeing this scene, would be unable to resist their curiosity and would try to unravel the magic circle to see what was inside.

Li Muge, however, didn't think so.

She's rather stubborn; she won't accept her own things from others, nor will she accept other people's things.

Moreover, she was absolutely certain that there were still people inside the cave.

It must have been the person who pushed her just now.

Without saying a word, Li Muge prepared to leave.

"Stop, young lady. Please stop in your tracks. I see that you have extraordinary talent and are a good candidate for cultivating immortality and practicing martial arts. Please give me three minutes so that I can teach you the supreme technique of this world."

Li Muge stopped and turned around, where she saw a handsome man with long, flowing hair sitting casually on a rock, his eyes a deep blue.

But what caught Li Muge's attention most was not the man's good looks, but rather...

"Was it you, you scoundrel, who pushed me into the lake just now?" Li Muge gripped his sword, his teeth grinding together.

Shao Junhao's forehead was covered in black lines, and he looked somewhat embarrassed.

What's going on? People in this world don't value cultivation manuals the most anymore. They value obtaining cheat codes or some kind of peerless cultivation method.

A group of people were fighting to the death.

Before the apocalypse.

About a dozen groups of cultivators came to his place, but none of them were destined to break the magic array, and not one of them was capable of fighting.

If you don't want to escape, then forget it.

And excessive greed,

As a result, it all benefited the crocodiles in the lake.

"Yes, what's wrong!" Shao Junhao said sullenly, "Miss, calm down, this is not the point."

"The important thing is, look over there." Shao Junhao pointed to the wooden box in the magic circle: "Go, open it."

"It contains priceless treasures and exclusive cultivation techniques."

"Once you obtain what's inside this wooden box, I guarantee you'll be invincible throughout the Three Realms."

After Shao Junhao finished his impassioned speech, all around him fell silent.

He suddenly felt a little embarrassed when no one showed up.

Li Muge clenched her fists: "You scoundrel, today I'll give you a taste of your own medicine."

After saying that, she flew forward and kicked the crazy man into the lake.

Although Shao Junhao was a native living here, he was still afraid of crocodiles. He hurriedly tried to get ashore, but saw Li Muge standing guard on the shore with his sword drawn.

He seemed to have the aura that he could kill him with a single sword strike as soon as he came up.

That shouldn't be the case.

The plot shouldn't be going this way.

Shao Junhao is a transmigrator from a book. He was originally a domineering CEO of a company, the kind of person who could bankrupt the Wang family if the weather turned cold.

One day.

He saw a novel called "The Phoenix Descends Upon the World," in which the female protagonist, Li Muge, was destined to be a harbinger of disaster.

However, she refused to submit to fate and was framed and turned into a demon by a vicious supporting character.

She overcomes numerous obstacles and conquers the three realms—this is still the basic plot of a female protagonist. Who knows how the author will write the ending?

In the end, they even arranged for Li Muge to perish together with the Demon Lord Yun Qi.

This won't do. Shao Junhao's favorite character is the female lead, Li Muge. But in the end, the protagonist dies. How can he, as a loyal reader and fan, accept this? He waved his hand dismissively.

Just write the author a check for one million and ask them to change the ending.

Change it to the female protagonist defeating Demon Lord Yun Qi and continuing to rule the Three Realms; if possible, she can even rule outer space.

The author readily agreed.

It's not easy to find a fat sheep, and you can't refuse it when it's delivered to your door.

CEO Shao was quite satisfied and was planning to take a nap to see the outcome of his million-dollar investment. However, when he woke up, he found himself transmigrated into the book.

After seeing several crocodiles chasing the man around eighteen times, Li Muge finally took pity on him and let the crazy man come aboard.

Seriously, do you think you can fool young girls just by having long hair?

"Woman, you've got guts. Give me your name!" Shao Junhao stubbornly raised his middle finger.

"Li Muge".

Shao Junhao's body, lying on the ground, stiffened slightly: "What did you say your name was?"

Li Muge frowned deeply. Could this man be out of his mind?

Or... there's something wrong with my ears.

“I said my name is Li Muge.”

"Really?" Shao Junhao looked up, a grown man with stars in his eyes.

"How could it be fake, you scoundrel? Do you want to fight?" Li Muge couldn't help but draw his sword again.

Unexpectedly, this man didn't play by the rules at all.

Suddenly, he grabbed Li Muge's leg and said, "Woman, I've finally found you. Congratulations, woman, you've successfully caught my attention."

Li Muge: "..."

She made up her mind; she was going to send this man to meet the King of Hell today.

Li Muge's killing intent was chilling.

Shao Junhao seemed completely oblivious, as if he felt that clinging to someone's coattails was beneath his domineering CEO dignity. He stood up and straightened his clothes.

"Hello, woman, let's get to know each other again. My name is Shao Junhao, and my English name is Jack. I graduated from Oxford University with honors, and my family has a huge influence around the world."

"Including myself, Jack himself, I also own the Shaw Group, which controls the economic lifeline of the whole country."

After Shao Junhao finished speaking, he proudly raised his head.

Li Muge awaited his surprise and admiration.

But he clearly forgot.

This isn't a modern romance novel; it's a fantasy/xianxia (fantasy martial arts) story.
