Chapter 23: Transmigrator, Your System Is Online!:
“What else do you have to say?” Hua Qiandi asked, his voice filled with impatience.
Xiao Huohuo, still standing firm, replied passionately, “Even though Qing Lian has broken off the engagement, I will always see her as my wife in my heart! She didn’t end the engagement because she stopped loving me. She did it to inspire me, to push me to become stronger!”
“Ah, a protagonist who’s still simping. “Hua Qiandi thought with a smirk. He nodded and asked, “So, have you actually improved?”
Xiao Huohuo suddenly faltered, his face turning red with embarrassment. “Uh…”
The crowd erupted in laughter.
One of the disciples mocked, “Since Xiao Huohuo joined the Fallen Gold Sect, his strength has dropped from the 7th stage to the 3rd stage Nascent realm. Is this what you call improving? It’s more like you’ve become a joke!”
“Yeah, he’s like a toad trying to eat swan meat. He should look in the mirror and see how pathetic he is.”
“It’s just wishful thinking!”
Though many people despised Hua Qiandi, they despised Xiao Huohuo even more.
After all, one was a prestigious Holy Son, blessed with immense talent and favored by the Heavenly Demonic Sect. The other was a complete waste of potential, still desperately clinging to hope after being rejected.
“You!” Xiao Huohuo clenched his fists, rage boiling inside him.
With a frown on his face, Qing Lian said coldly, “Xiao Huohuo, we ended things a long time ago. My life is my own to control. You have no right to interfere.”
“I will control it!” Xiao Huohuo protested.
Hua Qiandi waved dismissively, like shooing away a beggar. “Enough. I know all I need to. Xiao Huohuo, you’re just a toad lusting after swan meat. Stop dreaming. I’m in a good mood today, so I won’t kill you. Now, get lost!”
“Go away!” Several disciples jeered.
“This isn’t the place for trash like you!”
“A stinky toad!”
The insults flew from every direction, and Xiao Huohuo was overwhelmed with a storm of emotions—humiliation, helplessness, and fury. He wanted revenge, he wanted to crush those who mocked him, but he was powerless. How had he ended up like this when he was supposed to be a transmigrator with a special destiny?
At this moment, a voice echoed in his mind.
[Ding! The Super Sacrifice System is now online. Binding successful! Hello, host.]
Xiao Huohuo’s heart leapt with joy.
The system! Finally, it’s here!
As a transmigrator, he knew exactly what this meant. A system was the golden ticket, the ultimate tool for anyone in his situation. There was a saying: A golden finger might be late, but it never fails to arrive. After sixteen years of waiting, he had finally appeared.
“System, what abilities do you have?” He asked internally, trying to contain his excitement.
[Ding! The Super Sacrifice System allows you to sacrifice anything in exchange for cultivation power and strength. The more valuable the sacrifice, the stronger the host will become. There is no limit to how strong you can get, all the way to immortality and sainthood!]
Xiao Huohuo was ecstatic as he thought, “I’m destined for greatness after all!”
With newfound confidence, he lifted his head and met Hua Qiandi’s gaze, no longer showing fear. Instead, his eyes were filled with defiance.
Hua Qiandi narrowed his eyes. “Boy, I don’t like that look on your face.”
Xiao Huohuo sneered. “Of course I don’t accept this! Without the backing of the Heavenly Demonic Sect, would you dare act so arrogant? To me, you’re nothing but a coward who bullies the weak and fears the strong.”
The crowd gasped.
How dare he insult the Holy Son? Does he have a death wish?
Even the sect master paled. “Holy Son, please forgive him! He’s clearly lost his mind. It wasn’t my command! I hereby expel him from the Fallen Gold Sect. Please, don’t hold us responsible.”
Hua Qiandi waved his hand. “Relax. I won’t hold you accountable.”
The sect master sighed in relief. “Thank you for your mercy, Holy Son.”
Xiao Huohuo scoffed. “Selling out your own disciple to save your skin—pathetic.”
His disdain for the sect master and the Fallen Gold Sect was evident.
Why stay here and endure this when he had a system now? The world was vast, and he didn’t need these fools anymore.
“You insolent brat!” shouted one of the elders, his face flushed with anger.
Xiao Huohuo ignored them, turning his attention back to Hua Qiandi. He raised his chin and declared, “Hua Qiandi, let me tell you something: ‘Thirty years in the east, thirty years in the west—don’t look down on the poor!’ You can bully me today, but the day will come when I will return the favor!”
“Do you dare make a three-year pact with me? In three years, I’ll come find you at the Heavenly Demonic Sect. By then, I’ll be a hundred times stronger than you!”
The crowd murmured in disbelief. Xiao Huohuo wasn’t fighting for Qing Lian anymore; he was fighting to restore his dignity. With the system, women would never be an issue again. But if he didn’t stand up for himself now, he wouldn’t be worthy of being a transmigrator or a system host.
This was revenge he had to seek.
Hua Qiandi chuckled, amused. “Why wait for three years when I can kill you right now?”
A terrifying aura burst from Hua Qiandi, suffocating Xiao Huohuo. Cold sweat dripped down his face as his legs buckled, forcing him to his knees.
“No! I just got my system! I haven’t even begun!’
But just as Xiao Huohuo feared the worst, Hua Qiandi withdrew his aura. “I’ll give you a chance because I find you amusing. Three years is too long, though. How about three days? I’ll stay here for three days. If you don’t come to me by then, I’ll find you myself and kill you. And trust me, I always keep my word.”
