Chapter: Chapter 674The war room’s doors opened without ceremony. Li Qingxue stepped inside, white robes streaked with road dust, her breathing controlled but tight. She bowed once, sharp and precise.“Young Sect Master. Urgent news from the Murim Alliance.”Alex did not turn. “Speak.”“They have declared Wudang an enemy of the righteous sects. Five days. Surrender the sect and its assets, or their combined forces march on our halls.”The words landed like stones in still water. Alex’s eyes were calm, almost cold.“Good. They finally moved.”He shifted his attention to the man waiting on the far side of the map.Zhuge Liang stood with his usual stillness, hands clasped behind his back, the faint lines at the corners of his eyes the only sign he had absorbed every word.“Zhuge Liang. My orders.”“Yes, Prime Minister.”“First, the two provinces still clinging to the Yellow Turbans. Send our most reliable high-ranking officers—those whose loyalty is beyond question. They shall enter as the new governors. Pr

Chapter: Chapter 672The night air in the ruined courtyard still carried the sharp tang of smoke and blood. Li Tianlong stood rigid, his sword lowered but his eyes burning with the kind of fury that could ignite cities. His voice cracked across the open space.“If you do this, you are no longer human. How can you drag my entire family into your games?”Alex met his gaze without blinking. “I gave you a chance once. I am giving you another. Choose. Friend or enemy. But choose quickly.”“I serve only Emperor Liu Jian,” Li Tianlong spat. “The true son of the dragon. Not your puppet boy from the provinces.”Alex nodded once, a small, cold movement. “Liu Piao. Kill the emperor.”The fat Wudang disciple holding the bound false emperor tightened his grip. Liu Jian’s eyes widened in sudden terror as Liu Piao drew his blade in one smooth motion, the steel singing as it cleared the sheath.“Wait!” Li Tianlong roared.But Lu Piao had already driven his sword straight into the Emperor's heart. The blade erupted from

Chapter: Chapter 671The morning after the Namgung compound burned, fear spread through the empire faster than any messenger could ride.In teahouses and sect halls from the northern passes to the southern deltas, men spoke in hushed voices over cooling tea.The Namgung family—one of the five great pillars of the Murim Alliance—had been erased in a single night. Their ancestral halls reduced to ash. Their disciples scattered or dead.Their legendary patriarch, Namgung Hyuk, gone without a trace. No one knew who had struck or how.Only that the attack had been swift, silent, and absolute. For generations, no one had dared raise a hand against that name. Now the name itself felt like a curse.In the great hall of the Prime Minister’s pavilion in Changyi, Alex stood at the long map table, fingers tapping once against the dark wood. Zhuge Liang waited opposite him, calm and precise as always.“Yuan Shao is moving,” Alex said. “He sent the Murim Alliance after me. What do you think?”Zhuge Liang inclined his h

Chapter: Chapter 670Alex stood in the rubble, blood dripping from his split lip onto the broken stone. His left arm hung useless at his side, the bones shattered from Namgung Hyuk’s earlier blow.He ignored it. Pain was a luxury he could not afford. He raised his good hand.“Attack now!”Feng Taiyi charged forward without hesitation, pouring every ounce of his strength into the assault. But Namgung Hyuk was older and stronger.“You will never win,” Namgung Hyuk sneered.The two Nascent Soul masters collided high in the dark sky. Their swords clashed with explosive force, sending streaks of sword light flashing like silver lightning weaving through turbulent storm clouds.Then, without warning, five thousand Wudang disciples emerged in perfect unison. They appeared on every rooftop, in every shadowed courtyard, and from every hidden vantage point surrounding the Prime Minister’s pavilion. A sea of white robes rippled as one, silent and disciplined, like an avalanche ready to descend.They had been waiting

Chapter: Chapter 669The impact came like a thunderclap.Namgung Hyuk’s fist drove forward, qi roaring around his knuckles in a spiraling vortex of raw power. The air itself seemed to tear. Alex met it head-on, feet planted, every muscle braced.The collision exploded outward in a shockwave that cracked stone and sent dust billowing across the ruined courtyard.Alex’s body left the ground.He flew backward through the night air, a white-robed figure hurled like a broken doll. One hundred meters. His back slammed into the side of a half-collapsed building with a sound like splitting timber.Ribs screamed. His left arm hung useless, bones shattered inside the sleeve. Blood filled his mouth. For a heartbeat the world went gray at the edges.But he did not fall.He slid down the wall, boots finding purchase on broken masonry, and stayed upright. The five-element core inside him burned steady and deep, a foundation that had once carried him all the way to the first stage of Nascent Soul before he deliberately

Return of Overthinker
When the demon finally harnessed human sins and negative emotions to harvest negative energy, it opened a spatial gate to the planets that were already ravaged by monsters and teeming with dark creatures. The beasts and monsters passed through the gate, unleashing havoc upon Earth. These monstrous creatures caused destruction on a massive scale, pushing the earth toward an apocalyptic catastrophe.
In this dark time, The Creator granted certain humans the ability, marked by symbols on their right hands, to wield the power of gods and angels to combat these dark creatures.
My ability was 'Overthinking,' the weakest, but with hard work, I persisted for 60 years to become the most powerful and the savior of the world. However, in my final moments, I was betrayed by a friend who was born rich and noble, who forced me to die to obtain everything I had worked so hard for. Nevertheless, before my demise, I sent my memories back to my younger years.
This time, I will obtain everything: the best items, the finest women, and the most potent abilities. All will be mine!

Chapter: Chapter 204I was a bit surprised. "Isn't down there a place where the dead rest, and there is nothing but cold and barren land?" "At first, it was a place full of beauty, but those who did not like it destroyed everything in it, making it cold and barren. I hope you can help those suffering down there find kindness and peace. In truth, you can build a place far more beautiful than the palace of the gods because hell was initially a very beautiful place for those in need." "I accept it wherever You send me." *** In a temple where knowledge was usually shared, several humans who were teachers of various schools gathered to discuss important matters about knowledge. "Hey," said one human to another, "Why did the gods stop sharing their knowledge with us?" "Haven't you heard that the King of the gods, or God Indra, has been replaced?" "Really?" "God Indra is now angry after finding out that knowledge was given to humans by the previous Indra," said another human. "He stopped all knowledge fro

Chapter: Chapter 203After 1,000 years had passed, the three worlds experienced their golden age. There was no poverty or hunger throughout the three worlds. Everything was going very well. All dimensions entered a golden age because kindness became the most important thing in the three realms. Humans, gods, ashuras, and all beings were directed to continue giving kindness to all creatures. During my reign, everyone competed to do good so that there was no poverty, hunger, or lack. During that time, those who came to me, whether gods, ashuras, or humans, would get what they asked for. I did this as my way of doing good to all beings.One day, a dwarf-bodied brahmin came to my palace. The brahmin, called Vamana, had a body that was only waist-high to an ordinary human. He wore white clothes that wrapped loosely around his small body. However, considering that he was a human and came from the third dimension, being able to ascend to the twelfth dimension where the gods' palace was located was alr

Chapter: Chapter 202"I don't remember that part," I said. "Because each life makes you forget. I just want to say, if you give the gods' knowledge to humans, won't the gods lose their power? Haven't you humiliated them all? Your strength has made you not understand the feelings of the weaker gods." "Guru, if what you say is true, is my current strength because I was a strong spirit in the past?" He looked at me and weakly shook his head. "No, all spirits start from the same place." "Then why did I become strong?" "You had no fear, and your enjoyment of playing made you keep striving for something greater without caring for your own life." Brihaspati continued, "However, what placed you as King Indra is something else." "What is that?" "A sense of responsibility to protect the weak and make life better for all beings." Brihaspati sighed. "Those who have that sincerity will always be carried by karma and the will of God to re

Chapter: Chapter 201"Boss, you've become weak," said Raindo, one of the Ashura generals, approaching me. He looked enormous compared to my now smaller form. "You keep spending time in that school and library. You never fight anymore. You're going to become weak, and the previous Indra will soon return to reclaim his throne." "You just don't understand, my brother," I said, still reading a book. "Right now, I am ten times stronger than I was before." "I don't believe it," said Raindo, one of the strongest generals. "Let's test it." "Of course," I said, seemingly unconcerned. "Get ready." "I'm always ready," he replied. As soon as he said that, a bolt of lightning shot down from the sky, striking his body. He was thrown far, crashing into the palace walls and severely injured. "What happened?" he asked, looking confused and trying to stand up. He didn't know what had hit him. "I just attacked you. I gained the power

Chapter: Chapter 200“Oh,” I shouted. “That's easy.” Suddenly, I felt very smart. “I have plenty of wealth in the treasury.” Quickly, I ordered several Ashura to bring as much treasure as possible from Indra's vault and distribute it to all the Ashura. All the Ashura were happy. “Look, Guru, haven't I done a good deed? I shared my wealth with them.” I felt pleased. “Fool!” he shouted. “You haven't done a good deed at all. You should have given the wealth to those in need.” I fell silent. Quickly, I ordered all the Ashura to return the treasures they had received. The Ashura didn't need wealth; if there was one thing they needed, it was weapons. They all grumbled, and I quickly asked, “Do you want food and drink or wealth?” “Food!!!!” “Drink!!” None wanted wealth. Suddenly, it dawned on me. Who needs wealth? The Ashura don't need wealth, the gods already have plenty of wealth. The only poor creatures needing wealth are humans

Chapter: Chapter 199“Prepare all the food and drinks. All the gods must order their servants to bring all the food from their palaces. Call the apsaras, the heavenly maidens, and beautiful dancers. Call the singers and musicians. We will have a party.” So, a grand feast was held for days in the courtyard of Indra's palace. Music, dancing, and food never stopped. After that, the Ashura were left drunk in the palace courtyard. The gods had returned to their respective duties. I moved around to see the entire palace, and suddenly, an old man appeared before me. “What have you done to this place?” the old man asked, looking at the palace's new weapon-laden decor. “Who are you?” I asked, confused. This old man wore the simple clothes of a Brahmana, a single piece of cloth. The Brahmana do not fight, so we never touch them. If they get angry, we could get the worst curses of our lives. But if they are pleased, they could grant us many new and exciting powers. We prefer to appease them and wait for the
