What does it feel like to know that you are just a character in a book? The six peak masters have firm Dao hearts, firmly believe in their own existence, and firmly believe in the reality of this world.
Of course, the main reason is that the protagonist of the book is someone they watched grow up and has a good character. If it were someone like Li Chen... they would rather fight to the death.
They unanimously decided to keep the news under wraps.
The scene continues, but Li Chen has been a disciple for eleven years, which means he has been in this world for eleven years. They no longer value time and have no interest in wasting eleven years of their efforts on this guy.
The peak master of Biyun Peak activated the speed-up function.
...
"System, how do I find targets?"
"Among those who participated in the Taiyi Sect's recruitment this time, there is one with second-grade talent in this city. This person's comprehension is..."
Li Chen said with obvious disdain, "I'm the main character, a mere second-rank official, who are you trying to humiliate?"
The system coldly replied, "The only two people with first-grade talent in this recruitment are from the Chi family and Cangzhou. Neither of them are people you can touch right now."
"Nothing works, nothing works, it's so frustrating! Just tell me what to do?"
"Some people are born with exceptional talent, but they don't have the opportunity to participate in the sect's recruitment. You can..."
"Then hurry up and find me one."
"Host, this system can only scan the other party's data when it can see the other party."
"So I have to find it myself? What garbage! Look at other people's systems, and then look at yours... ahhhhh..."
That night, screams echoed frequently from Prince Chen's mansion. At first, some people went in to ask what was going on, but after three people were killed, no one cared anymore, including the little eunuch who was most favored by him.
The next day, Li Chen slept until dawn and did not go to the palace to pay his respects on time. The Empress sent her personal maid to ask him what had happened. He could not keep it a secret from the others and told them about what had happened the night before in detail.
But since the nanny was the Empress's right-hand woman, she was not easily fooled, and in the end, everyone in Prince Chen's residence was punished again.
The old woman waited until Li Chen woke up and finished eating before leading her people into the palace.
After entering the palace, Li Chen at least didn't let himself go, and stopped using vulgar language like "I" and "your mother," and he even acted like a respectable person.
The Empress, who viewed her son through a lens of perfect 100,000 meters, never imagined that his soul had been switched, and she made up her own explanations for all his abnormalities.
Besides, Li Chen was originally a little tyrant, while Li Chen now seems more obedient than before.
Ultimately, however, the Empress never personally cared for her two sons. When Li Chen was a little older, he went to the Princes' quarters, and after being made a prince, he left the palace to live. The mother and son did have some affection for each other, but their familiarity with each other was limited.
Li Chen tolerated the Empress's nagging for the sake of her still-attractive appearance and her status as a beautiful married woman, but he couldn't bear it for long, especially since the Empress kept urging him not to participate in the Taiyi Sect's recruitment so that she could help his brother deal with the other princes.
He could have been the protagonist, but instead he was forced to play an ordinary person in this small town, and even have to fight for an ant that didn't even exist in the plot. He immediately flew into a rage.
He dared to hit his own mother, let alone this stepmother, but as soon as he raised his hand, he froze.
It was the old woman who went to pick him up. The system had said that she was a Qi Refining stage spiritual cultivator, which would be considered trash in the entire Xuanling Continent, but in this ordinary country made up of ordinary people, she was a minor expert.
He stormed out of Fengyi Palace, and as he passed a certain palace, a snow-white ball of fluff suddenly appeared, startling him.
He was furious and kicked the little white ball of flesh away, its fate unknown. Then he strode away, completely unaware of the trouble he was causing the Empress and the Crown Prince.
After leaving the palace, he wandered around aimlessly. At first, he was still full of anger, but as he walked, he forgot why he was angry.
The Xuanling Continent is known for its open-mindedness, where women are allowed to show their faces in public, dressed in fragrant robes and with cloud-like hair, their voices melodious and sweet. One is elegant and beautiful, another is as graceful as a peach blossom...
Li Chen was so engrossed in watching that he couldn't move, his eyes darting around, wanting to take a second look at this one and that one, like a lustful ghost who wished he had more eyes.
"So many beautiful women."
Perhaps it's because this world is rich in spiritual energy, which is nourishing to people. Even ordinary people have a longer average lifespan than in their original world, and their appearance is also better. Anyone you see on the street has a face that could easily make it into the entertainment industry.
The school beauties Li Chen used to pursue couldn't compare to the flower girls on the street. Those celebrities who are crowned as goddesses and gods in the entertainment industry, even with makeup and filters, would be instantly outshone in a crowd.
"Damn, time travel is so much fun. No wonder the male protagonists in those novels always encounter beautiful women. This place is full of beauties."
The system followed Li Chen's movements, filtering out top-tier talent. Seeing his hopeless appearance, it continued to pour out its own motivational rhetoric and painted a rosy picture: "Host, the spiritual energy of Yunzhou ranks fifth from the bottom among the thirty-six states of the Xuanling Continent. Once you enter the Taiyi Sect, you will see more and higher-quality beauties."
Li Chen slurped his saliva, then swallowed it with a gulp.
It's worth noting that this book, called "Sword Dao Supreme," also features a female lead and various supporting female characters, all equally prominent in their appearances, and each one is a top-tier beauty, the kind that would be ranked among the best across the entire continent.
When Li Chen first started reading, he thought it was a harem novel, but when the novel reached its middle stage, the protagonist's natal sword spirit took human form, and it turned out to be a female sword spirit.
Okay, fine, it's a harem story, so it's normal for Blade & Soul to be female.
I don't know how the author dared to write it, or what that idiot Xiao Lingchuan was thinking. He rejected all sorts of women, including the most beautiful woman of unparalleled beauty, the innocent and playful junior sister, the passionate and gorgeous young lady of a noble family, and the cold and arrogant female sect leader. The clueless female sword spirit successfully took over.
