While trying to come up with a solution for his problem, he wrestled with the inconsistencies.
The system had told him that he wasn't bound by the Heavenly Dao and its rules, so he could avoid its direct strike.
Yet, how had the Heavenly Dao imposed a restriction on him and sealed his cultivation base? And...
Strabo Pompey was confident—!
This confidence didn’t come from others, nor from his family—it was forged through his own achievements on the battlefield.
As a proven warrior and man of action, Strabo Pompey had earned his reputation through victories.
Although Rome had recently suffered several def...
Speaking of Rome’s comitia—
During the Second Punic War, when Hannibal was on Rome’s doorstep, decisions of national importance could no longer be left to the whims of mass voting.
The comitia had lost its real power long ago…
During times of war, many decisions that should have been made by the ...
"What happened?"
The heavy pressure on his body was forcing him to kneel down, though he held himself in the place stubbornly.
However, it was still too difficult to stay standing, as he couldn't use any spiritual qi inside his body.
His body was sweating heavily at the moment as the blood seeped ou...
Sitting cross-legged on the ground, Ling Tian kept his eyes shut, ignoring the system’s notification as he focused on stabilizing his foundation. He had just broken through moments ago, and he needed to consolidate his strength.
But then, something strange happened.
The energy around him, the heaven and earth ...
At this moment, a beautiful woman, who could rival and defeat any goddess or so-called Heavenly Maiden in terms of looks and grace, was sitting on a stone.
The noble and graceful aura surrounding her made it clear she wasn’t someone to be trifled with.
But her charming presence still couldn't hide the tra...
At this moment Ling Tian had just broken through the Foundation establishment and was consolidating his cultivation realm.
Looking at the familiar silver-haired boy in front of the screen the girl couldn't help but feel her heartbeat sped up as her lips inadvertently curled into a smile.
The same face, the same...
As she closed her eyes, letting the gentle breeze brush against her face, her thoughts drifted back to a certain someone.
[Ding!!]
She suddenly heard a sound.
"Who's there?" she called out, the coldness that had been absent earlier returning to her voice.
Ling Ying, startled by his young miss's sud...
In Wutan City, within the Xiao Family.
An eye-catching figure stood on the balcony, gazing at the bright moon hanging in the night sky.
She wore a purple dress and possessed a pair of shiny black eyes, a petite and clean nose, and pink, tender, and moist red lips on her immature and pretty face.
The litt...
A few Days Later...
*Knock, Knock*
Hearing the knock at the door, the boy muttered, "It's today, then."
He had been consolidating his cultivation base while waiting for Sister Qing to return. Now that she was here, it was time to face the wrath of the Heavens.
With that thought in mind, he stood up...
Nothing much happened in the next few days since her visit as he continued to spend his days resting and cultivating.
Oh, he also broke through the Ninth stage of Qi Refining after suppressing his cultivation for many days.

After cultivating for a month, he was...
Looking at this woman who was looking at him with such a dark expression he couldn't but sigh.
Well.. she was really angry this time
that he started his cultivation without even telling her,
It was clear that if he didn't give her a good enough explanation, she'd probably stay mad for a while.
That ...
"Tian'er,"
The woman said, smiling slightly as she knelt down to hug him, pinching his little cheeks, her voice sounding melodious.
He just stood there, doing nothing, letting her do whatever she wanted.
Now he was more or less accustomed to such actions from her.
Most of the time she spent in his p...
"That was a bit unexpected," He thought after coming back to his world
This system just took him to a different world with a completely different spiritual energy and different power level and told him to protect Gu Xun'er from being taken advantage of by Xiao Yan.
But he ended up helping her in a comple...
In her boudoir, Xun'er heard everything Ling Ying reported, and her cute face blushed slightly,
"This brother is too bad..."
Ten minutes later he returned to the Xun'er room.
In the boudoir, there was still only Xun'er alone, and Ling Ying has already hidden in the dark in advance.
Xun'er, who was waiting for the thief, was immediately stunned when she saw the other party come in.
No other reason but because the figure was too small.
Just around her age, and for some reason, it gave her a feeling that she had seen him before.
The realisation struck her, and the gir...
Ling Tian walked across the courtyard, looking carefully around his surroundings before heading back to the room.
She was right; previously, while watching the commotion, he had used the concealment technique.
After all, considering his face, if he were to just stand in a place without concealment,...
Lost in thoughts, he reached the Xiao Family mansion.
The Xiao Family, located in Wutan City, was once a powerful and influential family.
Although their influence has waned, they remain one of the three major families in the city.
Coming to the gate, he was stopped by the gua...
Before he could continue enjoying the beautiful sunrise, the system's voice sounded.
[Ding!]
[Host, prepare for your first Goddess Rescue mission, the host is being teleported to the first world in 3, 2, 1]
As soon as the system announced, the space around him suddenly distorted, and he was su...
"System, are these the only items in the system store?"
Looking at the items in the system store, he spoke to the system.
Each of these things is worth millions of system coins; even the cheapest is around 100 million system coins.
It certainly doesn't seem easy to get.
[No,...

In Otome's room, at her house.
A calm, serene male voice, sounding somewhat detached from worldly desires, drifted out through the warmly lit glass window.

If we allow them to run for tribune now, it will inspire every young Roman to think they can do the same.

The people Atalanta had killed were two centaurs.
