Transmigrator

[Hong Huang Little Shrimp]: You're not thinking of getting online and playing together, are you?

[Yang Chan]: Uh...

[Hong Huang Little Shrimp]: If you want to play together, just say so. For your second brother's sake, I can probably get you one.

Yang Chan read Liu Bing's message and gave an awkward laugh, then glared angrily at Nezha beside her. It had been Nezha's lousy idea in the first place. He was so unreliable.

Nezha was busy playing a game on the PS5 when he suddenly felt someone glaring at him. He looked up and met Yang Chan's awkward, angry gaze.

"What?"

"What do you think? What kind of lousy idea was that?"

"Uh... Did we get found out?"

"What do you think?"

"Uh... So what do we do?"

Yang Chan snatched the PS5 from Nezha's hands, then turned and glared at Zhu Bajie, who was sitting nearby, waiting for his turn.

"Pighead, why didn't you warn me? Didn't you see what was wrong with this lousy idea? And you used to be a marshal!"

"Hey, you know I was a marshal a long time ago. Look at me now. You really expect me to come up with a plan?"

Zhu Bajie pointed at his pig snout, looking rather comical. But his piggy eyes never left the PS5 in Yang Chan's hands.

Ever since Yang Chan got the game console, she had hardly left the house. Then one time, Nezha came by to visit Yang Jian and spotted it. His interest was instantly piqued, and Yang Chan had generously let him try it.

After that, Nezha kept coming over to Yang Chan's place whenever he had the chance. Zhu Bajie noticed that something was up with Nezha and secretly followed him over. He was hooked, too.

After all, life in the Heavenly Court was boring. Though he had been named the Altar Cleanser Envoy, he hadn't stayed at Spirit Mountain. Instead, he wandered all over the Three Worlds, sometimes dropping by the Heavenly Court to catch up with friends.

And that was how he'd happened to stumble upon them.

"You..."

Looking at Zhu Bajie's pig face, Yang Chan suddenly didn't know what to say. Really, what could she expect a pig brain to come up with?

In the end, Yang Chan said angrily, "If you want one, go ask Little Shrimp yourselves. Why do I have to pass the message along?"

"If we could contact him, we'd have asked already. The problem is, only that Chat Group you mentioned lets us get in touch with him."

Nezha and Zhu Bajie spread their hands in unison, looking like there was nothing they could do.

Yang Chan's cheeks puffed up like a pufferfish, growing rounder and rounder.

"Come on, Yang Chan. Help us ask him for one of these game consoles, and we'll each give you a Spiritual Treasure in return. How about it?" In the end, Nezha was the one who suggested offering Spiritual Treasures as payment.

He was the Great God of the Three Altars, while Zhu Bajie was a former Marshal Tianpeng and now the Altar Cleanser Envoy. Both were disciples of the Three Religions, so neither was short on magic weapons or Spiritual Treasures.

Yang Chan thought it over and nodded. Just as she was about to tell Liu Bing in the Chat Group that she'd trade two Spiritual Treasures for two game consoles, a startled voice made Yang Chan, Nezha, and Zhu Bajie all turn toward its source.

"What's going on? Why is there a PS5 here?"

The newcomer wore a moon-white Taoist robe and stood on a cloud in midair, looking at Yang Chan and the others with an otherworldly air.

Yang Chan furrowed her brow. "Who are you?"

Guan Li didn't answer Yang Chan. Instead, he stared at the PS5 in her hands, his emotions roiling. He had come to this world and kept a low profile for hundreds of years, all to wait for the plot to begin.

Over those centuries, he had relied on the Sign-In System to raise his cultivation to the Heavenly Immortal level. His cultivation wasn't very high, but once the plot began, all he had to do was interfere with it and complete the system's tasks. With the system's rewards, he'd quickly be able to raise his cultivation.

By then, forget about an immortal Golden Immortal—even Grand Unity, or perhaps even a Saint, wouldn't be out of reach.

Besides, he had more than one trump card. After centuries of signing in, he'd built up quite a few. That was why he dared to come alone to Guangjiang Pass.

According to the plot, Yang Chan should have met Liu Yanchang by now. He had searched every mountain where Liu Yanchang might have appeared in the story, but hadn't found so much as a hair of him. He'd thought he might have arrived at the wrong time.

But the system's timing was definitely right. In the end, unable to find Liu Yanchang, he'd decided to come look for Yang Chan and see if she was still at Guangjiang Pass.

He never expected to find her holding a PS5.

"How did you get that?" Guan Li couldn't spare a thought for whether he was being rude, and he'd even forgotten about the system task. After all, the PS5's presence here meant there was a good chance he wasn't the only transmigrator in this world.

And that other transmigrator had already gotten to Yang Chan first.

Yang Chan was still such an innocent, naive girl. Whoever approached her first would have the advantage. So Guan Li's first thought was to find the other transmigrator and kill him.

"What business is that of yours?" Yang Chan snorted. Then she said, "I don't care who you are. This is Guangjiang Pass. Please leave."

Guan Li frowned. "If you won't tell me, I'll just capture you. I refuse to believe that guy would sit by and watch you get taken."

Guan Li didn't waste any more words and attacked at once.

Nezha's expression changed. Why was this guy attacking without a word? Nezha took out his Fire-Tipped Spear and thrust it fiercely at Guan Li without hesitation, roaring, "You've got some nerve! How dare you cause trouble here? You're asking for death!"

Facing Nezha's fierce attack, a cold glint flashed in Guan Li's eyes. The next moment, he focused his thoughts and used the Grand Unity Trial Card. Instantly, his true essence surged like a raging flood, and his cultivation shot up to the Grand Unity realm like a rocket!

With such astonishing power, Guan Li seized the Fire-Tipped Spear in Nezha's hands. Then he swung his arm, sending Nezha flying backward like a kite with its string cut.

Nezha was a powerful Taiyi, but he still fell far short of Grand Unity. His magic weapons could make up for the difference, but Guan Li's cultivation had only been at the Heavenly Immortal level moments ago, so Nezha hadn't used much strength. That was why, when Guan Li suddenly rose to the Grand Unity realm, Nezha was caught completely off guard and hit before he could react.

Seeing this, Zhu Bajie was also shocked. He hadn't expected this guy to leap from the Heavenly Immortal level to Grand Unity in the blink of an eye! Shaken, Zhu Bajie didn't dare delay. He swung his Nine-Toothed Rake and brought it crashing down on Guan Li.

Guan Li merely snorted. His figure flashed, and he dodged Zhu Bajie's powerful attack. At the same time, he thrust out his right hand and conjured a long spear from thin air. It was pitch-black, with faint, eerie red light seeping from it. As the spear appeared, a heart-chilling baleful aura erupted skyward like a volcano!

Zhu Bajie's pupils contracted violently, and he cried out, "The God Slaying Spear!"
