Ling Yi flicked his finger, and a ball of light landed on Lianxing's smooth forehead while she was still in a daze. The next moment, it disappeared into Lianxing's mind.

"Elder sister..."

Yaoyue ignored Lianxing and looked at Ling Yi with a questioning gaze.

"Try it for yourself!"

Lianxing's cheat ability is... how should I put it, rather unique, and Ling Yi always felt that this system was more suitable for Yaoyue than Lianxing.

The Faithlessness Points System allows you to earn "Faithlessness Points" by teaching unfaithful people a lesson and ensuring they receive the punishment they deserve.

The Faithlessness Points" can be exchanged for various cultivation techniques, cultivation levels, treasures, and more within the system.

It's similar to Yu Canghai's Chivalry Points System.

After Yaoyue the system message, Yaoyue felt inexplicably excited for some reason.

I hate heartless men the most.

What she didn't know was that not all those who are unfaithful are men.

Ling Yi glanced at his system interface, and sure enough, the progress bar jumped from 65% to 80%, directly increasing the progress by 15 points.

80%! That's enough to be added to the [World List] by the system; the minimum guarantee is there.

Over the next period of time, Yaoyue brought all the women who were with Lin Chen to Ling Yi Yi's side one by one.

The art style inexplicably became strange.

At first, Yaoyue would only bring people over at night, but Later she would come whenever she wanted during the day, and now, she's practically moving into the Lin residence.

Then Lianxing, Dongfang Bai, Wanwan, Shuang'er and other girls followed suit.

Well, the more they liked Lin Chen before, the more they hate him now.

Looking at the group of beautiful women in front of him, Ling Yi suddenly felt overwhelmed.

Although they escaped Lin Chen, are they sure they weren't affected by their Protagonist Aura?

It feels like these women are jumping from one pit to another.

It sounds strange of me to say that.

"Hey, Palace Master Yaoyue, have you abandoned your Flower Transferring Palace? Your Hua Wuque is fighting with someone, aren't you going to go check on him?"

Yaoyue shrugged nonchalantly. "Life and death are predestined. If I can't even beat an ignorant good-for-nothing, then I'll just die."

You probably wish one of them were dead, don't you? Do you think I don't know that Hua Wuque and Xiao Yu'er are brothers?

Perhaps this is the true meaning of "Yaoyue."

" Dongfang Bai, I heard that Ren Woxing has been released, and your Sun Moon Holy Cult is going to be destroyed. Aren't you going back to check on him? Are you sure you're okay?" Ling Yi shifted his attention to Dongfang Bai again.

" Ren Woxing is a useless person who has just broken through to the Innate Realm. His potential is exhausted, and he can be killed with a wave of his hand. Moreover, Ren Woxing is inherently cold-hearted. It won't be long before someone begs me to go back."

That makes sense; I have no answer.

Ling Yi glanced at the other girls again. "Fine, you're all staying at my house, right? If you're not leaving, I'll leave."

Surrounded by a bunch of women every day, Ling Yi felt he couldn't take it anymore.

He didn't know what others thought, but he still had the feeling of facing an NPC.

Ling Yi never considered the world of novels as the real world.

He never truly immersed himself in the role he played, which is perhaps why he could only get the progress to 99% at most.

That evening, Ling Yi left the Lin Clan quietly.

Looking at the newly added " Constable System " in the system's [Golden Finger List], I might as well hand it over to Constable Xing, who often freeloads at Tongfu Inn.

As for where to go next...

Recalling the original plot, Ling Yi tragically discovered that the novel's storyline basically all took place in Lin Chen's small courtyard, focusing on Lin Chen and his rear guard.

Occasionally, when they talked about things from the outside world, it was just something the girls casually mentioned.

Well, we'll just have to see where we end up.

Ling Yi plans to stay in this world for three months, distribute one hundred cheat codes, and then leave.

We're still less than twenty short, so there's no need to deliberately go anywhere or do anything.

Meanwhile, at the Lin residence, Yaoyue and the others were somewhat amused and exasperated upon discovering that Ling Yi was missing.

" Shuang'er, wasn't Lin Pingzhi usually the one who liked you the most? Didn't he tell you when he left?" Wanwan asked, pouting.

"No, Young Master Lin doesn't like me. It's not that kind of liking. I can tell." Shuang'er shook her head desperately.

"I told you long ago that I should have told him the truth, and now look what happened, I scared him away." Dongfang Bai gave Yaoyue a dissatisfied look.

"What are you looking at me for? If you hadn't stayed behind, would things have turned out like this? You really don't know anything," Yaoyue said angrily.

"Then tell me, why did you stay?"

"Don't you all know why you're staying? Are you all idiots?"

"Since you and Lianxing are staying, I'll naturally stay too," Dongfang Bai said matter-of-factly.

"I only stayed because Sister Dongfang stayed," Huang Rong said.

"Same!"

Same as above!

Yaoyue was amused, but considering they had all spent so much time together, she decided to tell them the reason.

"Do you know what realm is above Grandmaster?" Yaoyue pointed to the sky.

" Shattering the Void, isn't that just Legend?"

"That's not Legend. Once you reach the Grandmaster, you can Yinyin sense that power of heaven and earth, but the strength of that power is terrifying."

"It's practically impossible to Shattering the Void without external assistance, and Lin Pingzhi is that only external force."

"Now that we've scared this guy away, what do we do?" Dongfang Bai said, shrugging.

"It's not like he's not coming back. What can he do, run away forever? This is his home. Have you been blinded by Lin Chen's Protagonist Aura? Have you stopped using your brain?"

" Yaoyue, once I reach the Grandmaster, I'll definitely crush you," Dongfang Bai said angrily. "Is that what I meant? I meant, he seems to be very..."

"That's not being annoying!" Yaoyue knew what she was going to say and replied.

"He doesn't reject us, he just finds us troublesome. Does he think everyone is like Lin Chen, always wanting more than they have?"

"But this definitely won't work. How about this: from now on, no one is allowed to come here until they reach the Grandmaster."

Dongfang Bai neither agreed nor disagreed, which seemed fair, but at present, only Yaoyue had reached the Grandmaster Yaoyue.

You're just trying to hog all the benefits? This Lin Pingzhi is far more mysterious than that Lin Chen. If she brings Lin Pingzhi to her Sun Moon Sect, wouldn't the Sun Moon Sect become invincible?

She believed that Yaoyue must have such a plan.

"Well, we should at least maintain a relationship sometimes, otherwise, if you suddenly show up, it might just make him more resentful," Dongfang Bai added.

"Whatever!" Yaoyue said, then leaped into the air and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

"Tch, everyone has their own schemes," Dongfang Bai shrugged dismissively, then turned and left.

Her cheat system is the Grand Ambitions and Hegemony System, which is very suitable for the Eastern Grand Master. As long as she merges a sect, she will receive a generous reward.

Otherwise, wouldn't "Unify the Jianghu for a thousand generations!" just be a slogan forever?

Once the two Big Shot left, Wanwan lost interest in staying any longer. Her cheat Destroy the Buddhist School to Become Stronger System, and she was going to cause trouble too.

The other girls exchanged glances, and then went their separate ways.

In the end, only A Zi and Shuang'er remained.

Shuang'er Former Qing Kingdom, but how she ended up in the Former Song Kingdom was not explained in the original text.

Therefore, she had no relatives or friends in the Former Song Kingdom and had no idea where to go.

A Zi betrayed the Star Sect and has not yet recognized her sisters, Azhu and A Zhu. She still considers herself an orphan and naturally doesn't know where to go.

Shuang'er's cheat system is rather unique; it's Good Luck System, but so far, aside from occasionally finding some money, it hasn't shown much of a useful function.

A Zi's cheat ability is exactly the opposite of Shuang'er's; it's Bad Luck System, but this bad luck is inflicted on her enemies or those who are hostile to her.

One of them is lucky, the other is unlucky; they're a perfect match.

" A Zi, what should we do?" Shuang'er was not used to making decisions on her own, so she looked at A Zi expectantly.

"How about we go find Lin Chen?" A Zi suggested.

"Look, even though Lin Chen has some kind of 'pig halo'..."

"It's the Protagonist Aura!" Shuang'er corrected.

"Whatever, we have Lin Pingzhi's cheat code now, so we're not afraid of his 'pig halo' at all. He has so many good things to improve our strength, and we can only improve our strength quickly with him."

This A Zi is indeed very clever; she actually wants to go back to the Protagonist and eat and drink for free.

Shuang'er hesitated. After the Protagonist Aura was broken, she felt that Lin Chen was very annoying.

Her inexplicable arrival in the Former Qing Kingdom from the Former Song Kingdom was most likely due to the influence of that "pig halo."

She simply boarded the wrong boat, then inexplicably fainted on it, and when she woke up, she inexplicably found herself in the Former Song Kingdom?

It's all so inexplicable; who would believe it's not due to the Protagonist Aura?

I don't know how Ling Yi explained the Protagonist Aura to them, but they all understood it quite well.

"I don't want to see him again!" Shuang'er stated her opinion.

Didn't Lin Pingzhi say that Lin Chen was a decent person?

"I feel very, very uncomfortable!"

A Zi nodded; she felt the same way.

If Lin Chen knew what they were thinking, he would definitely cry foul, saying, "What does this have to do with me? I didn't want to; I was just being kind by taking them in."

Besides, Yaoyue, Dongfang Bai, Wanwan —weren't they all forced themselves to stay? Did he beg them to live in the courtyard? He's insane.

Blame the author, okay?

As for Ling Yi, if he knew the reason why Yaoyue and the others left, Lin Chen would not only not blame Ling Yi, but would also be very grateful to him.

Lin Chen just wanted to lie low and be a couch potato; women would only slow him down.

"Why don't we go find Lin Pingzhi? He must have a way to make us Grandmaster," A Zi suddenly said.

Shuang'er's eyes lit up, but then her face fell. "But how are we supposed to find him? We don't know where Young Master Lin went."

"Isn't your cheat system Good Luck System? Just throw a shoe, and you'll go wherever the toe of the shoe points!"

"Will this work?"

"You'll know once you try."

Ling Yi had no idea that two little girls were trying to find him by throwing shoes at him.

At this moment, he had already left Fuzhou City and arrived at the northern border of the Former Song Kingdom.

And just then, they encountered a massive invasion by tens of thousands of Xiongnu cavalry.

Although Ling Yi had traveled through many novel worlds, this was the first time he had ever witnessed a scene of war.

Two words: trembling.

The earth trembled, and Ling Yi's heart also trembled violently the moment the two sides' soldiers clashed.

Former Song Kingdom cavalry was far fewer in number than the enemy, and the majority of the Song soldiers followed the few remaining cavalrymen, brandishing their weapons and charging forward fearlessly.

Also rushing forward were a considerable number of martial arts practitioners, some Dress uniform as disciples of a particular sect, and others dressed in patched-up clothes as members of the Beggar Sect Clan.

But at this moment they all share one identity: Han Chinese.

Ling Yi was somewhat confused. Why insist on charging out of the city to fight the enemy when there were city walls to defend?

Everyone knows that cavalry cannot besiege cities; this is common sense.

But Ling Yi quickly understood the reason.

It wasn't that they didn't want to defend the city walls, but rather that the Xiongnu soldiers appeared too suddenly and in too large numbers, leaving the soldiers in the city no time to mobilize them.

If the Xiongnu soldiers were to reach the city gate, the gate would likely be breached in no time.

At that time, the Xiongnu army will advance unimpeded, and the city will be finished.

As the massive city gate slowly closed and was secured with a huge horizontal bolt, topped with a dozen or so pillars, Ling Yi understood that most of the soldiers and Jianghu artists who had rushed out were unlikely to return.
