As he spoke, Jiangnan actually used a brick to draw the line...

Li Xiang, Li Muyan, and the others all looked terrible!

Just let him have his moment for now!

Once they reached the Heavenly Lake Spirit Ruins, Jiangnan would get what was coming to him!

On his way home after school, he passed by the barbecue stall.

He found business booming!

Quite a few young men were standing guard in front of the stall, while Scarface was even enthusiastically helping carry plates?

What the hell?

What was going on?

The moment these people saw Jiangnan, they all bowed in unison and shouted, "Hello, Brother Nan!"

In an instant, the eyes of everyone eating or walking by focused on Jiangnan...

Jiangnan: "..."

Aunt Zhou greeted him warmly, "Xiao Nan, you're here? Yuqing, hurry and greet him!"

Jiangnan looked puzzled. "These people..."

Aunt Zhou gave a bitter smile. "Don't even mention it. They came over this afternoon and insisted on helping. If I refused, they said they'd kneel for me. I really couldn't turn them down..."

"Xiao Nan, look..."

Jiangnan glanced at Scarface!

The guy jolted, then gave him a shy smile.

Well then!

This was probably Wu Liang's handiwork.

"It's fine, Aunt Zhou. Just treat them like your own workers! If any of them disobey, give me a call!"

"This area's pretty chaotic too. With them around, they can keep things under control!"

Aunt Zhou said, "That's too embarrassing..."

Zhou Yuqing's cheeks reddened as well. "We don't need this many people! Thank you, Brother Jiangnan..."

Jiangnan affectionately rubbed her head. "No one's been bullying you lately, right?"

Zhou Yuqing smiled sweetly. "Nope! They've all been very nice!"

Jiangnan chuckled.

Let's see one of them dare not be nice!

When he passed Grandpa Wang's house on the way home, Jiangnan curiously peeked into the yard...

He found Wangcai listlessly sprawled in front of its doghouse!

The entire dog had gotten noticeably thinner.

Several little female dogs were lined up outside the doghouse...

Guoguo from Aunt Zhou's house wagged her tail and barked excitedly a few times.

Wangcai weakly answered, "Woof..."

Then Guoguo grabbed Wangcai by the tail and dragged it into the doghouse...

Wangcai's face was filled with utter despair. Not long after...

Guoguo came out looking thoroughly satisfied, wagging her little tail as she left...

Wangcai had barely crawled out of the doghouse on trembling legs when a large wolfhound came over and dragged it back inside...

Wangcai couldn't resist at all!

Seeing another seven or eight little female dogs waiting in line, Jiangnan shuddered!

Wangcai, good luck to you!

This is as much as I can do for you...

It seemed Spiritual Energy Leeks really did have side effects. Lack of stamina? That was probably it!

Mm, it was time to put the sale of Spiritual Energy Leeks on the agenda too!

After returning home, Jiangnan started recklessly doing Ten Consecutive Draws again!

He had saved up for a full three days, and his Resentment Points had reached over 310,000!

Then he pulled another twenty bundles of Spiritual Energy Leeks...

Jiangnan was so mad he started cursing!

The third draw finally yielded something.

[Thank you for your patronage! Consolation prize: one pair of Hulk Brand Underpants!]

[Congratulations! You won: one Prosperous Beauty Pill!]

[Congratulations! You won: one Prosperous Beauty Pill!]

[Thank you for your patronage!...]

Jiang Nan froze!

Not only had a new consolation prize appeared, but even a proper prize had shown up? And two of them at that?

Thinking of the powerful effects of the Marrow Cleansing Fruit, Jiang Nan felt a faint surge of excitement.

He hurriedly checked its effects.

[Prosperous Beauty Pill!]

Effect: Improves your appearance after consumption, granting you peerless beauty! Perfect and flawless!

Jiang Nan was dumbfounded!

He had thought he would get something like a Spirit Pearl or an upgrade potion—an item meant to improve his strength.

But what the hell was a Prosperous Beauty Pill?

A plastic surgery pill?

What the hell did this have to do with improving his strength?

Wait! Looks were a kind of strength too, weren't they?

With a good face, victory was guaranteed?

Making a living off one's face was also a skill!

Jiang Nan's eyes lit up. Feeling nervous, he sat before the mirror and touched his face...

"Mm... I'm already handsome enough. There's nothing I'm really dissatisfied with!"

Yet he still took out a Prosperous Beauty Pill and swallowed it.

It was sweet, with the flavor of White Rabbit Milk Candy!

Then Jiang Nan felt his face start to itch...

A wave of worry rose in his heart.

This wouldn't disfigure him, would it?

He wouldn't explode on the spot, would he?

That scummy system had Jiang Nan on edge.

Half an hour later, Jiang Nan stared at his reflection in disbelief.

Star Eyebrows Sword Eyes, a high nose bridge, upturned lips, and a pair of black eyes that seemed to contain a sea of stars—enough to steal the hearts of any girl.

His skin was so smooth, tender, and fair that it defied Heavenly Reason! His entire body carried an air of untamed freedom.

Combined with his aggressively stylish buzz cut, even a slight smile was an arrow from Cupid!

No! It was Cupid's Gatling! Area-of-effect damage!

He still looked like himself, but with only slight adjustments, the changes were this enormous!

Jiang Nan rubbed his face!

Handsome!

Fucking handsome!

He had never known a person could be this handsome!

A girl killer?

A rich woman's little puppy?

With this overwhelmingly handsome face, he could instantly crush any top male celebrity in the entertainment industry!

He loved it!

Jiang Nan slowly clenched his fist, his face resolute!

"It's time to buy a copy of How to Win the Heart of a Rich Woman!"

Afterward, Jiang Nan checked the new consolation prize.

[Hulk Brand Underpants!]

Effect: Bug-level underpants! They'll catch all of life's ups and downs for you! They can change according to the wearer's body shape.

Jiang Nan swallowed hard?

In the movies, when the Hulk transformed, his clothes would burst apart, but his underpants never did. No matter what kind of battle occurred, those underpants remained firm!

Did Hulk Brand Underpants have the same effect?

Amazing, amazing!

They were practically a blessing for Spirit Warriors with beast transformation abilities!

As for the side effects?

He wasn't the one wearing it, so Jiang Nan couldn't care less!

He could let Wu Liang try it first!

After all, that image was still impossible to erase from Jiang Nan's mind...

A quick look showed that the styles were quite complete, with both men's and women's versions—there was everything!

At that moment, Spiritual Energy Leeks also entered the System Store, 300 Resentment Points per bundle!

Jiang Nan:...

Just then, his phone suddenly rang.

It was a video call from Lang Mie.

Jiang Nan tapped to answer.

On the screen, Xia Yao was happily holding Zhong Yingxue's arm!

It was noisy around them, as if they were out on the street.

"Xiao Nan! Come out and eat! Your sister's in a good mood today, she's treating!"

Zhong Yingxue smiled gently as well. "What do you want to eat today, Xiao Nan?"

Seeing the two beauties instantly lifted Jiang Nan's mood.

"Where are you two? I'll head over right now!"

But Xia Yao curled her lips. "Xiao Nan! You're a grown man, why do you have beauty filters on during a video call? This has to be level ten already, right?"

"Turn it off, turn it off! You're practically blinding me with how handsome you are!"

Jiang Nan:???

"I didn't turn anything on?"

"Still arguing? Xiao Xue, are phone beauty filters really this terrifying nowadays...?"

Zhong Yingxue rolled her eyes and ignored Xia Yao.

"We're waiting for you at Century Plaza!"

Jiang Nan said, "Got it! I'm on my way!"

After ending the call, Jiang Nan wore a helpless expression!

Wasn't that a little too unfair?

Beauty filters?

My beauty filter is built right into my face, okay?
