Chapter 484: After Becoming the Human Emperor, What Have You Done?
“What exactly is your ambiguous relationship with how many women?”
This question stumped the Idle One Jiang Li. He hemmed and hawed for a long time without being able to count exactly how many there were.
“They’re all good girls, I don’t want to let them down. I’ll definitely give them proper status in the end,” the Idle One Jiang Li said with a sincere expression.
“……”
Jiang Li felt the impulse to press this scumbag down and beat him up again.
“Explain in detail how you met all these women.”
“That would start with Baixue Ling. This was the system’s first ‘not recommended to abandon’ mission. At the time I thought that as long as I completed all missions, I would counterattack to become the number one person in the Nine Provinces, so I planned not to abandon any mission…”
Through the Idle One Jiang Li’s account, Jiang Li got to witness what could be called extravagant serendipity.
Things like using ingenious artifact refining techniques to attract female refining geniuses, using fire control methods to attract female alchemy geniuses, using previous life song lyrics to attract talented women, traveling to other worlds, hiding his cultivator identity, using miraculous cultivation methods to attract women from other worlds…
Jiang Li would just glance at “not recommended to abandon” missions before abandoning them. He never expected the system would issue so many missions not recommended for abandonment.
“Is this a Counterattack System or a Matchmaker System?”
Besides system-issued missions, there were all kinds of coincidences, like female cultivators being poisoned with union poison, and the Idle One Jiang Li personally detoxifying them after driving off enemies; families forcing marriages, with female cultivators hastily finding a man to deal with it, that man being the Idle One Jiang Li; in martial arts tournaments for marriage, the Idle One Jiang Li thought it was an ordinary competition and went forward to participate, only discovering the truth after becoming the final victor…
No wonder the Idle One Jiang Li couldn’t count them all. Even Jiang Li, just listening, didn’t want to count halfway through.
Not just because of the large quantity, but also because some relationships were unclear whether they were just ordinary friendships or ambiguous relationships.
Is this grandson even human or a bulldozer?
“When I persisted until Commander Liu and others arrived, completing the final mission of the Path of the Human Sovereign, the system rewarded me with breaking through to the Unity Stage and becoming Tribulation Transcendence Stage.”
Jiang Li understood now. Superficially, the Idle One Jiang Li appeared omnipotent with heaven-defying combat talent, defeating Yu Yin and Bai Hongtu to become the only Human Sovereign candidate.
Actually, these were all accumulated results from previous system missions and system rewards. The system had targeted training for the Idle One Jiang Li – for example, since Bai Hongtu excelled at formations and swordpath, the system gave him abilities to counter formations and maxed out his attribute points in swordpath; since Yu Yin excelled at the Dao of Painting, the system made Jiang Li learn to use soul attacks to prevent Yu Yin from utilizing her greatest advantage.
Not to mention the final test of the Path of the Human Sovereign – facing attacks from the Sect Master of Qing Heaven Sect and the Martial Kingdom’s ruler, he didn’t need to comprehend tribulation transcendence true meaning or break through to Tribulation Transcendence Stage. He just needed to persist until Commander Liu and others arrived, and the system could help him become Tribulation Transcendence Stage.
The Idle One Jiang Li rarely faced difficulties or desperate situations, with truly meaningful battles being pitifully few.
Although the First Emperor was tyrannical, his position was genuinely fought for through real combat. The number of bloody battles he fought wasn’t less than Jiang Li’s own. If the First Emperor met the Idle One Jiang Li, the situation would probably be completely one-sided.
“After I became Human Sovereign, I discovered I had already completed the counterattack, becoming the true number one person in the Nine Provinces in the real sense. In terms of combat power, since Immortal Elder Changcun cannot take action, I became the strongest. In terms of reputation, what position could compare to the Human Sovereign’s prestige? In terms of romantic relationships, I had unclear, indescribable relationships with many female cultivators renowned throughout the Nine Provinces for their beauty.”
“I suddenly felt that becoming Human Sovereign was quite good. My desire to ascend and become an immortal diminished greatly. After ascending, I would have to start over from the beginning, becoming Earthly Immortal, Celestial Immortal, Golden Immortal, and finally Primordial Chaos and Limitless Immortal.”
“Ascension definitely needs to happen. I still want to possess the infinite lifespan of a Primordial Chaos and Limitless Immortal, enjoying eternal carefreeness.”
“For safety’s sake, I planned to reach the peak of Mahayana Stage before ascending. First, it could guarantee my survival in the Immortal Realm. Second, it would allow me to spend more time with my dao companions.”
“Then what did you do after becoming Human Sovereign?”
The Idle One Jiang Li said as if it were obvious: “Of course resisting attacks from Outer Realm Demons. I should have killed four or five Outer Realm Demons. Honestly, after I killed those Outer Realm Demons, the people I saved were incredibly happy. It made me feel very accomplished.”
Jiang Li casually asked: “Resisting Outer Realm Demons, not bad. What else?”
The Idle One Jiang Li thought about it, not understanding: “What else? Nothing else. What the previous generations of Human Sovereigns mainly did was resist Outer Realm Demons, right? I did the same as them.”
“If I really have to say what else I did, it’s nothing more than handling internal conflicts within the Nine Provinces. This was very easy for me. I just needed to glare angrily and release my Mahayana Stage aura, and the conflicting parties would reconcile on their own. You’re stronger than me – does just leaking a trace of your aura work? Doesn’t it feel particularly satisfying?”
Jiang Li understood now. Superficially, the Idle One Jiang Li appeared omnipotent with heaven-defying combat talent, defeating Yu Yin and Bai Hongtu to become the only Human Sovereign candidate.
Jiang Li didn’t answer the Idle One Jiang Li’s question, continuing to ask: “Didn’t you deploy things like the Nine Provinces World Protection Array, or compile Nine Provinces maps?”
“What is the Nine Provinces World Protection Array?” The Idle One Jiang Li had no concept of this.
“It can block them for fifteen minutes to half an hour when Outer Realm Demons suddenly attack the Nine Provinces.”
The Idle One Jiang Li didn’t understand: “What’s the point of that? When Outer Realm Demons come, I can just kill them directly. Why bother with unnecessary trouble?”
“Then didn’t you consider that Tianji Tower monopolizes Nine Provinces maps? Many cultivators have to spend heavily just to buy maps, seriously hindering cross-regional cultivator communication.”
“I actually did think about this. In our previous life we had mobile phone navigation. After I crossed over, I discovered I couldn’t even afford maps. I thought about creating a cheap yet complete map after becoming invincible. But later I developed an ambiguous relationship with a certain core female disciple of Tianji Tower. It wasn’t convenient for me to break relations with Tianji Tower, so this matter was left unresolved.”
“Spirit Herb Sect advocates refining cheap elixirs. How did you treat Spirit Herb Sect?”
The Idle One Jiang Li didn’t understand this question: “What does Spirit Herb Sect’s thinking have to do with me? It’s not like I can’t afford elixirs. Every year Alchemy Peak gives me many elixirs, more than I can use. The extras I distribute to Human Sovereign Hall commanders.”
“Then how did you resolve the situation with Yin-Yang Heaven Seal enlightening all spiritual treasures under heaven?”
“At the time I thought this definitely couldn’t continue – it would cause great chaos under heaven. Stability is most important, so I made Yin-Yang Heaven Seal erase the spiritual treasures’ spiritual sense again. Of course, immortal artifacts were excluded.”
“Did you have Brahma Tower construct spatial channels between the various imperial dynasties?”
“Ah? There’s such a method? I never thought of it.” The Idle One Jiang Li scratched his head, feeling the other’s thinking was really flexible, something he couldn’t match.
“I just had Brahma Tower bring women I had relationships with from other worlds to the Nine Provinces.”
Jiang Li asked with a forced smile: “Then dear comrade Jiang Li, what exactly did you do after becoming Human Sovereign?”
