The Reticent Blade - Chapter 28 - Riot

After meeting his demise, Ye Ning finds himself in the body of a low-ranking official. However, he is far from unlucky. He has received an all-powerful system that will allow him to become the invincible Heavenly Official.The only catch is that he must first succumb to death without committing su*cide.Surely, that isn’t so hard, right?But he soon discovers that this world is toxic.Emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty: “One glance at Ye Ning leads to a lifelong mistake. If he dies, I absolutely refuse to live.”Immortal of the Upper Realm: “People in this world are mostly indifferent, only Mr. Ye has never abandoned me, so I will do my utmost to protect him.”Countless people: “Anyone in the world can be dispensable, only Mr. Ye must be protected. He is a saint for all ages!”—Ye Ning: “Please, can we not add any more drama? I’m almost invincible, why can’t I die yet?”

I didn’t know this was a world inside a game. And I didn’t know my master was a mid-boss. “No way… wasn’t she supposed to self-destruct because of her personality?!” …I’m sorry.

Time had run out. Azrael hadn't been chosen by the system, leaving him Forsaken with no hope for a prosperous life.But he wasn’t going to let it end like this. Even if it meant trading his life for a single chance, he would take it. It was either a life of greatness, one where he would reach the very top… or a short one, dying here, unmourned and forgotten by a cursed world that never cared he existed.“An early end in pursuit of greatness sounds better than a slightly longer one filled with stagnation and regret.”In the end, all the things he had done hadn’t been for naught. The sacrifices up until now had been worth it.[Inborn Trait activated][System devoured][Inborn Trait is fusing with the system][Devouring System has been granted]To his surprise, however, his system proved to be far more extraordinary than the others, granting him a unique path that only he could follow.With that realization, one thing became certain: no matter what monster or human stood in his way, he would reach the very top of the hierarchy, regardless of the cost.

The so-called cultivating immortals is to live longer than anyone else!

Killing the enemy is not a skill, living has a future!

Running fast, being able to hide, and having an unremarkable appearance… This is how she looks like an immortal emperor!

Lu Yuan: “I only do three things when I come to the world of cultivating immortals… Longevity! Longevity! In the end, it’s the goddamn longevity!”

“Only those who are alive… are worthy of cultivating immortals!!!”

“What, you are talking about ghosts and immortals? A bunch of crooked things, crawl for me!”
