READ THE WARNINGS FIRST
"Ugh."
"Is Sister Tang Ya coming or not?"
At twelve years old, Qian Ran was strikingly handsome, with flawless, delicate features and jet-black hair. At that moment, he was enjoying a freshly grilled fish he had just cooked.
The golden-brown fish was sprinkled with various seasonings, releasing a rich aroma that was incredibly enticing.
Qian Ran had only recently crossed over to this world.
He had a cheat ability known as the "Goddess System." By signing in with a "goddess" who met the system's criteria, he could receive rewards. If he could even capture her heart, he would get an additional sign-in reward.
Qian Ran was quite pleased with this system. A mature system should allow its host to level up effortlessly.
If you don't flirt with girls after transmigrating, then what's the point of transmigrating?
Jiang Nannan, Tang Ya, Ma Xiaotao, Meng Hongchen, Juzi, Xiao Xiao, Tang Wutong, Qiu'er… there were plenty of beauties in the Unrivaled Tang Sect period, even more than in Douluo 1. Plus, in this timeline, he could even go after some of the girls from the first Douluo story.
Of course, Qian Ran wasn't just lustful. He had no interest in that many girls and was simply focused on completing his mission to become stronger.
Qian Ran was looking forward to it.
The three essential elements of a Douluo transmigration: show off, flirt with girls, and defeat Tang San.
Although he couldn't defeat Tang San just yet, he could head to Shrek Academy and try to win over Tang Wutong. Tang Wutong was a stunning beauty, but what Qian Ran loved most was her hidden identity.
Such an identity added a thrill for Qian Ran.
After all, Tang San had sent her right to him—how could he let her slip by?
Currently, however, the one he was preparing to intercept wasn't Tang Wutong but Tang Ya.
Though Tang Ya might not be the most beautiful in the Unrivaled Tang Sect, she was still the Tang Sect master and later even became the Holy Maiden of the Holy Spirit Sect—a woman of high status.
Since he had crossed over, he aimed not only to defeat Tang San but also to take down the Tang Sect and Huo Yuhao.
He intended to seize all the opportunities that would have come to Huo Yuhao.
Though Huo Yuhao had it rough, he was an obsessive fan of Tang San and his family—a true "simp" to the extreme.
Tang San might just be a villain, but Huo Yuhao was a true hypocrite. The absurd things Huo Yuhao did later on in the story had always raised Qian Ran's blood pressure.
The worst part about Huo Yuhao was how he claimed to be a loyal lover while flirting with multiple women.
His so-called loyalty involved touching Wang Qiu'er's chest and saying, "Qiu'er, I didn't mean anything by it," and then, after her death, flirting with Tang Wutong as if nothing had happened.
He even cozied up to Juzi on the northern plains, kissed her multiple times without any hesitation, and ultimately used his child with Juzi as a bargaining chip. Qian Ran had never seen a more absurd protagonist in all the fantasy novels he had read.
Huo Yuhao left a trail of ambiguity and heartbreak with Qiu'er, Juzi, and others, acting like he was the one who suffered the most.
And as if that wasn't enough, he cheated in tournaments, claiming it was to uphold Shrek's honor. Since when did Shrek get to ask for covert help in championships? Wouldn't it be fair for the Royal Sun and Moon Academy to bring a ninth-level soul tool, then?
Tang San might have been double-standard sometimes, but Huo Yuhao took it to a new level. He embodied cheating in competitions as if it were his birthright, showing no competitive spirit. How was this any different from doping in the Olympics?
So, of course, Tang San valued him—only someone this awful would have Tang San's approval.
"Once I finish Tang Ya's task, I'll go see if I can steal the Skydream Iceworm and Electrolux."
"What happens to Huo Yuhao without these opportunities isn't my concern."
Huo Yuhao might as well stay weak and pitiful.
...
"Smells amazing!"
At this moment, a delighted, sweet voice sounded. Qian Ran turned to see two people walking along the stream, led by a young girl around fifteen or sixteen years old. Her long black hair was tied in a ponytail, and her light blue outfit outlined her youthful figure with a charming energy.
She had almond-shaped eyes, large and lively, with a high nose bridge, nearly perfect face shape, and a hint of surprise in her beautiful face. She stared intently at the grilled fish in Qian Ran's hand.
Behind her was a refined young man with a tall, slender figure, who also seemed interested in Qian Ran.
[Ding! The system has detected a goddess within fifty meters of the host, meeting the sign-in requirements!]
[System activation successful. The host may sign in with Goddess Tang Ya. When the host is within one meter of the goddess, the system will automatically sign in!]
She's here!
Qian Ran looked at Tang Ya with a smile.
Though not the main heroine, she was still beautiful.
Dressed in a tight martial arts outfit, Tang Ya's graceful curves stood out, her perfect figure enough to outshine many girls.
Her slender legs, highlighted by tight pants, were round and smooth, and her jogging exuded endless youthful charm.
Tang Ya took a few quick steps toward Qian Ran.
Her slender legs, round hips, and enchanting figure gave off a faint fragrance.
Is this the benefit of being a transmigrator?
Which game or manga could have such an attractive girl? And not only was she beautiful, but she was also fun.
"Hey, little guy, are you selling this grilled fish? It smells so good!"
Tang Ya's beautiful eyes stared straight at Qian Ran, who was momentarily taken aback. A guy as handsome and graceful as Qian Ran was rare. In terms of looks, he was even better than Bei Bei, especially with those charming black eyes.
Tang Ya stared at him for a while, then shyly looked away. The smell of grilled fish was a big temptation for a foodie like her.
"No charge, help yourself," Qian Ran said with a smile.
It smelled so good!
Tang Ya was stunning, with her pretty face and the figure outlined by her white martial arts outfit, which made Qian Ran steal a few extra glances.
The fragrance of the young girl drifted to him, making the grilled fish in his hand seem less enticing. How could the grilled fish compare to Tang Ya's scent?
If he could win her over, wouldn't life be wonderful?
And to think Tang Ya was a "leg play" girl too!
In the original story, her legs weren't described in such detail, but with beautiful, tall girls, you could expect their legs to be lovely.
Her long, beautiful legs in tight white pants, leading to a slender waist, were enough to make any guy stare.
Her scent was so alluring Qian Ran couldn't help but take a deep breath. And this was just Tang Ya. Imagine Wang Dong'er or Qiu'er—how beautiful would they be? Winning them over could mean endless happiness.
After looking twice, Qian Ran quickly looked away, not wanting Tang Ya to think he was a creep.
Girls on Earth couldn't compare to the beauties in fantasy worlds.
"Thank you!" Tang Ya took the grilled fish from Qian Ran, handed one to Bei Bei, and sat nearby, happily eating.
[Ding! Host successfully signed in with Goddess Tang Ya.]
[Ding! Congratulations to the host for receiving the newbie gift pack: Spirit Hall Inheritance.]
[Ding! Host has obtained the Six-Winged Angel Martial Spirit, with innate level 20 spirit power!]
[Ding! Host has obtained the Spirit Hall's holy weapon, the Angelic Sacred Sword!]
Spirit power surged through Qian Ran's body, warming him with an endless supply of energy.
Six-Winged Angel Martial Spirit! Innate full spirit power! Angelic Sacred Sword!
He had inherited the Spirit Hall's legacy, seemingly all related to Qian Renxue.
But Qian Renxue was a figure from ten thousand years ago. Would he repeat her fate?
No way—he wasn't driven by romance.
In Douluo, the romantically obsessed ones were always the losers: Bibi Dong, Qian Renxue, Gu Yuena. This world only favored "sea kings," who ruled their emotional seas. Just look at Tang San. Though he didn't openly pursue a harem, he left feelings everywhere he went and managed to thrive.
It's not that Qian Ran wanted to be a "sea king," but experience showed that this was the only way to survive in such a "cruel" world.
It's a curse. In Douluo, a harem is politically correct.
