Qingyang City, Yihong Courtyard!
Su Mo groggily opened his eyes, staring in utter confusion at the antique-style room and the beautiful woman before him.
A torrent of memories flooded his mind.
Finally, Su Mo understood.
He had transmigrated.
His predecessor shared his name, Su Mo. He had been born into a Martial Arts Family, but at the age of eight, his family met with disaster and his parents mysteriously vanished. This tragedy twisted his predecessor into a narrow-minded and extreme person. After being adopted by his father’s good friend, Xiao Zhan, his personality didn’t improve; on the contrary, he only became more reckless, constantly courting death.
Just a moment ago, his predecessor had finally succeeded in getting himself killed.
"Hello, Young Master. My name is Dong Xiaowan."
The voice beside him pulled Su Mo back to reality.
Su Mo looked up. Beneath a canopy of red gauze sat a gorgeous woman clad in sheer fabric, her body seemingly as delicate as if she were boneless. Her large, watery eyes held a look of coy invitation as she shyly introduced herself.
Seeing Su Mo’s slight restraint, Dong Xiaowan asked, "Is this your first time in a place like this, Young Master?"
Su Mo replied blankly, "Yes, it’s my first time."
Dong Xiaowan asked in a soft voice, "Since this is your first time, you must be unfamiliar with the arts of the bedchamber. In that case, I will have to take the lead. Please cooperate with me, Young Master. I will serve you until you’re in heaven."
"No, no, no!"
Su Mo quickly refused. It might have been his first time in a place like this, but he had done extensive research on the arts of the bedchamber. His theoretical knowledge was exceptional—he had even consulted "the five sisters" on many occasions. The only thing he lacked was an opportunity for live practice.
"Oh?"
With her almond-shaped eyes and rosy cheeks, Dong Xiaowan asked with a hint of curiosity, "I wonder what arts of the bedchamber you’re familiar with, Young Master. Would you care to tell me?"
Su Mo said, a little embarrassed, "JK seduction, cosplay, hydrotherapy spas, ’Two Girls Play with a Dragon Ball’... I know a thing or two about all of them. But now isn’t the time to discuss such things."
According to his predecessor’s memories, he was the live-in son-in-law of the Xiao Family, and today was his wedding day. ’If my father-in-law finds out I came to Yihong Courtyard to frequent a brothel, he’ll definitely skin me alive and string me up for a beating.’
’I have to get out of here, fast!’
Seeing Su Mo roll off the bed to escape, Dong Xiaowan grabbed him and pulled him back. She said demurely, "I do know a bit about ’Two Girls Play with a Dragon Ball,’ and I’ve even sampled it a few times. But as for ’JK seduction’ and ’cosplay’ that you mentioned, this is the first I’ve heard of them. Please, Young Master, be generous and enlighten me."
Su Mo refused. "Stop messing around. I don’t have time for this right now. Some other day, maybe."
Dong Xiaowan, of course, refused to give up. She flipped over and straddled him, her red lips breathing a warm, fragrant scent as she pressed close to his ear and cooed, "There’s no time like the present. I want to explore this legendary ’JK seduction’ and ’cosplay’ with you today."
Su Mo said in alarm, "Don’t tell me you’re going to force yourself on me?"
Dong Xiaowan chuckled. "If you like it rough, Young Master, then rough it is. I wonder, do you prefer a wealthy matriarch or a wanton Empress? I can play either role."
Su Mo struggled violently, but his body was too frail. No matter how much he thrashed, it was no use.
Dong Xiaowan straddled Su Mo, pinning him down firmly. "You’re struggling so fiercely, Young Master. You must prefer the wanton Empress. Very well, I shall satisfy you right now."
Su Mo cursed, "Like hell I do! Let me the fuck go! If you don’t, I’m going to start screaming!"
Dong Xiaowan said teasingly, "Go on and scream, Young Master. Scream until you’re hoarse; no one will come for you. No, wait, I’m the Empress now... Struggle all you want. The more you struggle, the more *this Empress* enjoys it."
Su Mo despaired. ’Fuck, don’t tell me I just transmigrated only to get raped?’
"Patriarch Xiao Zhan is here."
Just then, a voice called out from outside. Before Su Mo could react, the door was kicked open, and a middle-aged man strode in.
Xiao Zhan, the Patriarch of the Xiao Family, and Su Mo’s soon-to-be father-in-law.
Seeing Dong Xiaowan, stripped of her sheer robes and straddling Su Mo, about to undo her bodice, Xiao Zhan was overcome with rage. "You vile creature! You... you..."
Su Mo cried out, "Father-in-law, help me! This woman is trying to force herself on me!"
Xiao Zhan roared, "Bullshit!"
’On his wedding day, he runs off to Yihong Courtyard to visit a brothel, strips a woman naked, and he has the goddamn nerve to say *she’s* the one forcing *him*?’
’Shameless!’
Xiao Zhan trembled with rage. "What are you gawking at? Get dressed, get down from there, and get back home with me! Have you no shame?"
As she watched Su Mo’s departing figure, a triumphant smile touched Dong Xiaowan’s lips.
...
「The Xiao Family Estate.」
Su Mo tried desperately to explain, "Father-in-law, I..."
Xiao Zhan roared, "Shut up! Don’t call me Father-in-law. From now on, you’ll stay right here and reflect on what you’ve done. You’re not to go anywhere without my permission, or I’ll break your legs!"
Su Mo sighed. ’I can’t believe I just transmigrated, only to fall right into someone’s trap and get caught up in such a ridiculous mess.’
Just then, a splitting headache suddenly struck Su Mo, as if his head were about to explode.
BOOM!
Su Mo’s vision went black. When he could see clearly again, his consciousness had appeared within his own mind.
Before him stood a colossal Heaven-Reaching Pillar.
Su Mo stared, entranced. ’Huh? Isn’t this the Nine Dragon Celestial Pillar from "Nine Dragons Invincible"? How did it cross over with me?’
Coiled around the Heaven-Reaching Pillar were nine Golden Dragons.
Not only were all nine of them Five-Clawed True Dragons, but they were the supreme Five-Clawed Golden Dragons of the Dragon Race, continuously releasing an overwhelming draconic aura.
’Could this be my golden finger, my cheat for transmigrating?’
Su Mo carefully examined the Nine Dragon Celestial Pillar and discovered a ball of golden light in each dragon’s mouth. ’What is that? A Long Yuan?’
With a beckoning gesture, the Long Yuan landed in his hand.
’I’m supposed to eat this, right?’
Su Mo swallowed the Long Yuan. A thunderous dragon’s roar instantly exploded in his mind: "Across the rivers of stars and ten thousand domains, throughout the eternal firmament, he who receives the inheritance of my Dragon Race shall rule over all gods and demons... True Dragon Undying Technique, First Stage."
The next moment, the cultivation method for the True Dragon Body Refining Technique appeared in Su Mo’s mind. It was as if it had been carved there, as if he had known it since the moment he was born.
Su Mo was stunned. ’The True Dragon Undying Technique... an invincible Body Refining Technique. When cultivated to Perfection, one can slap gods and demons to death with a casual wave of the hand... Is it really this badass?’
Beings on the level of gods and demons all possessed Great Divine Techniques and had dozens, if not hundreds, of ways to save their own lives. To be able to kill them with a casual slap...
This technique was absurdly powerful.
After he swallowed the first Long Yuan, a new one materialized in the dragon’s mouth.
Su Mo murmured, "If there’s a First Stage, there must be a Second. This new Long Yuan that just appeared must be for the Second Stage of the True Dragon Undying Technique... Huh? Why can’t I take it?"
Su Mo had retrieved the first Long Yuan with a simple gesture, but he couldn’t get the second one no matter what he tried. It was as if it had been welded in place.
’I’ll try another dragon!’
Su Mo moved to the second true dragon. With a casual gesture, the Long Yuan from its mouth fell into his hand, and he swallowed it.
"True Dragon Divinity Refining Technique. An invincible Soul Refining Technique. Cultivated to Perfection, one’s Divine Soul can refine the Celestial Dao itself, and the Celestial Dao can be extinguished with a flick of a finger."
’Another invincible one?’
"True Dragon Supreme Technique. An invincible Cultivation Technique. Its cultivation speed is the fastest in the cosmos. If it’s second, nothing is first."
"True Dragon Battle Intent Technique. An invincible Battle Intent Technique. Cultivated to Perfection, one can obtain the strongest Battle Intent in the universe."
"True Dragon..."
Su Mo was ecstatic. ’These are all Invincible Techniques! If I cultivate all of them, won’t that make me invincible too?’
