Chinese Paladin World differed quite noticeably from the other worlds Xu Yue had experienced.
This world was not structured around "planets."
The heavens were round and the earth square. Beyond Shenzhou, which encompassed several realms, lay endless chaos.
Moreover, this world's guardian will was exceptionally powerful—so powerful that Xu Yue did not even dare entertain thoughts of feeding.
It was probably Pangu's lingering will after he had cleaved open the heavens and earth.

"How's Fei Peng doing?"
After setting those thoughts aside, Xu Yue asked Chong Lou.
According to the established background, Xu Yue had acted as the referee and covered their retreat back then, which was why he had been injured. Thus, he was well acquainted with both Chong Lou and Fei Peng.
Among the Three Realms, aside from one another, only the surviving Heavenly Emperor Fuxi and that old dragon could probably suppress them.
"In this reincarnation, he's a pawnshop clerk. He reeks of petty commercialism. Every time I see him, I want to beat him up. He's getting worse and worse."
"I couldn't stand it anymore, so I gave him the Demon Sword from his previous life."
At Xu Yue's words, Chong Lou wore an expression of utter disappointment.
His reincarnation as Long Yang had been acceptable enough. At least he had possessed some courage and forged that little trinket.
But now, the guy was just a complete idiot.

Xu Yue shook his head.
"Good. If he gets drained dry, I'll just replace him with another one. His next reincarnation should be more promising than this one."
Chong Lou looked utterly unconcerned.
Having reached a state close to immortality
