18: Oh no, I'm decent now!

“Honestly, being able to improve just by lying down is truly amazing. I don't know why, but I'm suddenly a little envious of this guy.”

Looking at Qi Xuan on the ground, Li Tian Ce cast an envious gaze. Although he could also take the path of Dual Cultivation, he wasn't the type of person who would Lying-to-Win.

One must always rely on himself!

This was his life motto!

Chu Mo also knew in his heart how amazing it was to improve just by lying down, but there were pros and cons.

“Cultivate while lying down is good, but his combat power is definitely lacking. He's like a porcelain doll, breaking with a touch, and might even be counter-killed by someone stronger.”

Hearing Chu Mo say this, Li Tian Ce immediately lost interest in Dual Cultivation. Being counter-killed by someone stronger, showing off and getting slapped in the face.

He definitely couldn't stand it!

However, in his ordinary world, as long as he had some Cultivation, he could kill at will.

It seemed he didn't have to fear being humiliated by others. As for completing missions in other worlds, that was even simpler.

With a few big shots in the Chat Group covering them, what did they have to be afraid of?

“Alright, I've completed the mission, it's time to go back. I'm really not used to staying in your world without Spiritual Qi!”

This mission only gave a meager 200 points, but Chu Mo still gained something.

At the very least, the Human Emperor Flag was no longer empty; it now contained millions of wronged souls. He could now be considered to have truly entered the threshold of the Demonic Path.

Watching Chu Mo gradually disappear before him, Li Tian Ce also felt a slight relief.

Staying with this big shot for too long made him feel like he could be recruited into the Human Emperor Flag at any time, with food and lodging provided. The psychological pressure was immense.

“But then again, it seems I’m the only one in the Chat Group who follows the Righteous Path. It feels a bit out of place.”

Li Tian Ce recalled the paths of the others.

Chu Mo Cultivates the Demonic Path, Ning Haocheng is currently researching Dark Magic and necromancy, and Qi Xuan is a pure lecher, definitely going the Dual Cultivation route in the future.

Only he followed the martial Dao, Cultivating the Imperial Dynasty's national destiny.

Holy crap! The righteous one is me!

“Good, good, good. I, a righteous person, actually joined a villain Chat Group. It's really messed up. What if they realize one day and sacrifice me?!”

The more Li Tian Ce thought about it, the more alarmed he became. However, since things had come to this, he could only go with the flow.

The Imperial Dynasty's national destiny path required an Imperial Dynasty, so he had to start with the most basic territory.

Set a small goal: first, acquire a city!

...

Xuanling Continent, Jinling City.

After returning from the Great Wu World, Chu Mo purchased a property in the city for his own residence.

As for joining a Sect to obtain Cultivation resources, he hadn't yet decided which Sect to join.

After all, he was currently Cultivating Demonic Path Cultivation Technique, so joining a renowned Righteous Path Sect was somewhat inappropriate. And if he joined those Demonic Path Sects, he was afraid that one day someone would use the banner of 'eliminating demons and defending the Dao' to treat him as an experience package to farm.

“Alas, life in the Demonic Path isn't easy!”

In the courtyard, Chu Mo leisurely leaned back in a rocking chair, tapping a rhythm on the armrest with his right hand.

Before him was the Chat Group's light screen.

[System Notification: Rookie Cannon Fodder A has completed the emergency rescue mission and received rewards: 200 points, Chat Group experience +1]

[System Notification: Rating 3.0 Lying-to-Win Dog Emperor participated in the emergency rescue mission but made no contribution, receiving a minimum reward: 20 points]

No way, buddy, there's even a minimum reward!

Chu Mo, who had just opened the Chat Group, straightened up, his eyes wide.

This Chat Group is quite humane!

This way, group members with low strength could rely on these missions to earn minimum rewards and accumulate strength.

It was also a way to become stronger.

As long as enough was accumulated, the desired items could eventually be redeemed.

However, upon seeing this System message, two people in the Chat Group immediately exclaimed about a huge missed opportunity.

[Emperor and Royal Relative Number One: Holy crap! Minimum reward! Damn it, the first mission was 100,000 points. If I had participated, how much would the minimum reward have been? 10,000? Or 20,000?]

[Rating 3.0 Lying-to-Win Dog Emperor: It's a huge missed opportunity, but who dared to take on the first two missions besides the big shots? Aren't you afraid of being caught in the collateral damage if you went before the big shots? With our small bodies, even a slight impact would kill us.]

Qi Xuan recalled this experience, and a chill ran down his spine. He almost ended up in the Human Emperor Flag with food and lodging.

Wasn't that terrifying enough?

[Rookie Cannon Fodder A: @Rating 3.0 Lying-to-Win Dog Emperor, you're back? How was it? Did you manage to bluff your way through?]

[Rating 3.0 Lying-to-Win Dog Emperor: I barely managed to bluff my way through, but I'm still quite uncomfortable right now.]

[Rating 3.0 Lying-to-Win Dog Emperor: Image.]

Seeing the image Qi Xuan sent, Chu Mo was also stunned.

In the image, Qi Xuan was lying on a Dragon bed, with an unknown object clinging tightly to him.

Never mind that it was a size larger than Qi Xuan, but what was with those arms thicker than his own thighs?

Are you sure this unknown creature is a normal person?

[Rookie Cannon Fodder A: @Rating 3.0 Lying-to-Win Dog Emperor, your wife?]

[Emperor and Royal Relative Number One: Big shot, you curse so foully!]

[Rating 3.0 Lying-to-Win Dog Emperor: *sigh.jpg*]

[Rookie Cannon Fodder A: Is that really your wife? Why do I feel like it's similar to a first-tier Yao Beast, the Fiery Ape, from our world?]

[Emperor and Royal Relative Number One: Big shot, you're cursing more and more foully. *facepalm.jpg*]

[Rookie Cannon Fodder A: *none of my business.jpg*]

[Rating 3.0 Lying-to-Win Dog Emperor: @Emperor and Royal Relative Number One, have you left the grasslands?]

Li Tian Ce, who was sitting on horseback, had a cheerful expression, but upon seeing this message, his cheerfulness instantly vanished.

Damn it!

He still hadn't left the grasslands.

He had been riding his horse for a long time in this grassland, a place with no distinctive landmarks, but he always felt like he was still in the same spot.

Holding the compass he had exchanged from the points store, Li Tian Ce felt a little comforted.

“As long as I keep heading south, I'll definitely reach the border of Great Wu. By then, with my identity as a Royal Relative, those border guards will surely bow down to me.”

[Emperor and Royal Relative Number One: Don't get cocky. Although I'm still in the grasslands, at least I don't have to sleep with a chimpanzee. *schadenfreude.jpg*]

Holy crap! You're going too far!

Qi Xuan looked at the empress, who was clinging to him, and secretly resolved to give her a complete makeover to spite Li Tian Ce, that 'grassland wanderer'.

[Rookie Cannon Fodder A: You two are enough. What's there to argue about in such matters? It's better to first determine your own development path!]

The two looked at each other, and it made sense!

[Emperor and Royal Relative Number One: I'm in the grasslands, preparing to first seize a city with my identity as a Royal Relative, then 'uphold the heavens and quell the rebellion,' and head south to capture the Dragon!]

[Rating 3.0 Lying-to-Win Dog Emperor: I'm in bed, preparing to first give my wife a makeover, and then embark on the Yin and Yang Grand Dao.]

[Emperor and Royal Relative Number One: It's just Dual Cultivation, why be so refined? We're all Transmigration, isn't it better to be straightforward?]

Watching the two bicker again, Chu Mo helplessly rubbed his forehead. These two were truly something; they always managed to turn a conversation into a mutual attack.

If you have the guts, don't just talk smack online! Solo offline!
