Chapter: Chapter 605Alex had hoped—truly hoped—that he would lose this fight.He didn’t want to become the Dao partner of Hou Mei… or Li Qingxue.Either path was a trap.His plan had been simple—force Li Qingxue into the spotlight as a Core Disciple, stir enough pressure and tension that Hou Mei would have no choice but to step back on her own.Clean. Controlled. Effective.But Li Qingxue…She had no intention of helping him.Not even a little.If anything, she seemed determined to do the exact opposite—crushing his plan without hesitation, leaving him trapped in the very situation he was trying to escape.“Jun Jiu,” Li Qingxue said coldly, “keep your delusions to yourself. You are not worthy to be my Dao partner. Give up.”Before Alex could respond, Hou Mei stepped forward, her tone soft but pressing, almost eager. “Jun Jiu, you heard Miss Li Qingxue. Why not stop struggling? Come with me instead. Be my Dao partner.”Her voice dropped slightly, more intimate now.“We can even start now. I promise… I’ll

Chapter: Chapter 604The referee stood at the center of the arena, robes fluttering in the wind as his voice rang out across the vast grounds.“This,” he declared, sweeping his gaze over the roaring crowd, “is the most anticipated battle of the year at Thousand Herbs Peak!”The noise swelled—thousands of disciples pressing forward, eyes burning with anticipation.“And now,” the referee continued, his tone sharpening with excitement, “we arrive at the pinnacle of the tournament—the clash between the first and second-ranked contenders!”A beat.“Who will claim the title of this year’s top outer disciples of Thousand Herbs Peak?”He raised one hand, pointing to the right side of the arena.“From the right—Hou Mei!”The crowd erupted.“She is acknowledged as the most beautiful fairy of Thousand Herbs Peak—ranked among the top ten beauties of the entire Wudang Sect!”Cheers turned into a frenzy of admiration.“She has defeated every challenger before her with overwhelming skill. Her cultivation stands at the p

Chapter: Chapter 603Alex stepped out of the arena as if the outcome meant nothing to him—no triumph, no defeat, no lingering attachment. His expression was calm, almost indifferent.But the truth ran deeper.He wanted to lose.Because standing at the top didn’t just bring glory—it brought attention. Pressure. Endless trouble that never stopped knocking at your door.The tallest tree always caught the strongest wind.And eventually… the woodcutters came.Across the arena, Elder Yu approached Li Qingxue, his robe swaying with quiet authority. His eyes, however, were fixed—sharp, intent.“Give me the pill,” he said, extending his hand. “I need to examine what kind of medicine he created.”As a respected elder of the Medicine Pavilion, his words carried weight.Li Qingxue hesitated for only a moment before reaching into her sleeve and taking out one of the pills Alex had refined. She placed it carefully into Elder Yu’s palm.The elder lifted it slowly, studying its surface… then brought it closer to his nose

Chapter: Chapter 602“Wait—wait!” Lu Nan’s voice cut sharply across the arena as he stepped forward and bowed toward the referee. “I clearly heard him say surrender. Shouldn’t you be announcing that I’ve already won?”The referee turned, his gaze settling on Alex. “Did you just say you surrender?”Alex inclined his head. “Yes. I did.” He paused. “But that was before he insulted my parents. Now… I have no intention of surrendering.”Lu Nan’s expression twisted. “A man’s word, once spoken, should never be taken back!” he shouted.“And a man,” Alex replied coldly, lifting his chin, “never lets anyone insult his parents and walk away.”A faint, dangerous smile touched his lips.“When you lose… believe me, I’ll take your tongue.”A murmur rippled through the crowd.“Referee!” Lu Nan barked, his patience snapping. “You must declare my victory!”The referee raised a hand, leaving no room for argument. “The match will proceed. Jun Jiu has withdrawn his surrender and is willing to continue. Therefore—you will figh

Chapter: Chapter 601What truly shocked everyone—especially Elder Xiao—was the Eternal Blue Flower.Growing one was no simple task. It demanded relentless care, precision, and patience. One mistake—just one—and the flower would wither and die instantly. Because of that, no one outside Elder Xiao and her direct disciples had ever succeeded in cultivating it.And yet—Li Qingxue had returned with one.Not only that… it was massive.At a glance, it was clearly over twenty-five centimeters.A ripple of disbelief spread through the hall.Li Qingxue walked calmly toward the Peak Leaders, her expression composed, almost indifferent to the storm she had just unleashed.“I was asked to bring the smallest flower,” she said evenly. “This is the best I could find.”She paused, glancing down at the glowing blue petals in her hand.“I estimate it to be around twenty-seven centimeters.”Shock exploded across every elder’s face.For years, they had bent themselves to please Elder Xiao—enduring her conditions, her prices,

Chapter: Chapter 600“Tang Ming, how do you want this competition to be decided?” one of the elders asked, his voice calm but carrying across the arena.Tang Ming lifted his chin, pride glinting in his eyes. “A few years ago, I placed eleventh in the herb knowledge test. My name is carved into the stone stele rankings—you can see it for yourself.”There was no modesty in his tone—only certainty. Among the younger generation, he stood alone. Everyone ranked above him had long since died. There was no one left to challenge his claim.“So,” he continued, glancing at Alex, “I’ll take the herb ranking test again. I’m confident I’ll enter the top ten. You should take it too. Whoever ranks higher wins this competition.”“Alright,” Alex said.His voice was flat, almost indifferent. The truth was, he didn’t care.“Good!” Tang Ming grinned, already turning away. “I’ll head to the medical pavilion now.”Without waiting another second, he rushed down the peak toward the stone stele test, his robes fluttering behind h

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
