Chapter 485: Chapter 484: What did you do after becoming the Human Emperor?

“How many women exactly are you involved with?”

This question left Jiang Li, the freelancer, stumped. He stuttered for a long while and still couldn’t figure out the exact count.

“They are all good girls, I don’t want to let them down. I am sure I will make it official with all of them eventually,” pledged Jiang Li with a sincere face.

“……”

Jiang Li felt an impulse to take this playboy down and give him a beating again.

“Go into detail about how you met each of these women.”

“I guess it begins with White Snow Spirit, which was my first ‘not recommended to give up’ task given by the system. I thought that I could become the top man in all of Jiuzhou if I complete all tasks, so I planned never to abandon a single one…”

As Jiang Li recounted his tales, Jiang Li learned the true meaning of a remarkable encounter.

Like using a fascinating artifact refining technique to attract the female genius of artifact refining, using pyrokinesis to catch the attention of the female alchemy genius, attracting talented women using lyrics from his previous life… travelling to other worlds, hiding his cultivator identity and using miraculous acts of cultivation to entice women from other worlds…

Jiang Li would usually abandon these ‘not recommended to give up’ tasks with a single glance. He never expected the system to issue so many of such tasks.

“Is this really a counter-attack system or a matchmaking system?”

Besides the tasks issued by the system, there were all sorts of coincidences involved as well. For instance, the Joyful-Toxin in female cultivators, freelancer Jiang Li would personally cure the toxin after defeating his enemies. Family-enforced marriages where a female cultivator swiftly found a man to fend off the match, that man happens to be freelancer Jiang Li. When it came to martial-arts competitions for marriage proposals, freelancer Jiang Li went ahead to participate thinking that it was a regular contest. Only after emerging victorious did he find out the truth…

No wonder freelancer Jiang Li lost count. Even Jiang Li, an onlooker, didn’t want to keep counting halfway through.

Not only was there a large number of them, but there were also some where it was hard to tell whether it was just a platonic friendship or a romantic involvement.

Is this kid human or a bulldozer?

“When I persisted until the arrival of Commander Liu and the others to complete the final task of the Emperor’s path, the system rewarded me by allowing my breakthrough to the Body Integration Realm, to Transcendance Tribulation Stage.”

Jiang Li had a clearer understanding now. On the surface, it appeared that Jiang Li could do anything. His innate talent for battle was against the heavens, defeating Yu Yin and Bai Hongtu to become the only candidate for the Human Emperor.

However, all these were results accumulated from previous system missions and system rewards, the system cultivated Jiang Li in a targeted manner. For example, Bai Hongtu was proficient in formations and Sword Dao, the system gave Jiang Li an ability to counter formations and maximized his sword dao attribute points. Yu Yin was proficient in artistic Dao, the system taught Jiang Li to use soul attacks, stopping Yu Yin from demonstrating her greatest advantage.

Not to mention the final test of the path of the Human Emperor, facing the attack of the Sect Hierarch of Qingtian Sect and the ruler of Wuguo, there was no need to understand the true intent of the Transcendance Tribulation Stage, or breaking through to the Transcendance Tribulation Stage. He just needs to hold on until the arrival of Commander Liu and the others, the system would help him break through to the Transcendance Tribulation stage.

Jiang Li rarely faced obstacles or desperate situations, and real fights were pitifully few.

Although Chudi was a tyrant, his status was genuinely earned. He didn’t battle any less than I did; if Chudi were to meet Jiang Li, the situation would be one-sided.

“After I became the Emperor, I realized that I had completed my counter-attack to become the number one person in nine provinces in the true sense. In terms of combat power, if the immortal Chang Cun cannot make a move, I would be the strongest. In terms of prestige, is there any position that could be compared to the prestige of the Emperor, in terms of marriage, I have unclear relationships with many beautiful cultivators in the nine provinces.”

“Suddenly, I felt that being an Emperor was quite good. The desire to ascend to immortality faded a lot. After ascending, I have to start over again, become an Earth Immortal, Heavenly Immortal, Golden Immortal and finally reach the Primordial Chaos Immortal.”

“I’ll definitely ascend, I still dream of having infinite longevity like the Primordial Chaos Immortal, enjoying eternal freedom.”

“To be on the safe side, I plan to ascend after reaching the peak of the Mahayana Realm, so I can ensure my survival in the Immortal Realm, and also spend more time with my Dao companions.”

“So what have you done after becoming the Human Emperor?”

Jiang Li replied of course: “I, of course, resisted the attacks of the Heavenly Demons. I guess I killed around four or five Heavenly Demons. The people I saved from these Heavenly Demons were extremely happy, giving me a great sense of accomplishment.”

Jiang Li casually asked: “Resisting the attack of the Heavenly Demons, not bad, anything else?”

Jiang Li thought for a moment, puzzled: “Anything else? Isn’t that enough? Didn’t the previous Emperors mainly resist the Heavenly Demons? I am doing the same as them.”

“Well, if you really want to know what else I did, it just involved settling the inner conflicts of the nine provinces. This was very easy for me. As long as I glare and emit my aura of the Mahayana Stage, the conflicting parties would reconcile on their own. Since you are stronger than me, wouldn’t it be cool to intimidate with just a hint of your aura?”

Jiang Li asked with a silly smile.

Jiang Li didn’t answer his question and just continued asking, “Didn’t you consider forming something like a Nine Provinces Guardian Formation, or drafting a map of Jiuzhou?”

“What are these Nine Provinces Guardian Formations?” Jiang Li didn’t have any idea about it.

“It can keep the Heavenly Demons at bay for a moment to half an hour when they suddenly attack the Nine Provinces.”

Jiang Li was puzzled: “Why create it? When the Heavenly Demons come, I can just kill them, why bother?”

“Haven’t you considered that Sky Mechanism Tower monopolizes the map of the Nine Provinces. Many cultivators have to pay a heavy price just to buy a map, which severely hinders the exchange between cultivators across regions.”

“I did think about this. We had mobile navigation in our previous world. After I crossed into this world and found that even maps were unaffordable, I planned to create an inexpensive and complete map after I became invincible. However, as I became romantically involved with a core female disciple from Sky Mechanism Tower, it was better not to fall out with Sky Mechanism Tower, so this matter was put to rest.”

“Regarding Spirit Medicine Sect promoting the production of cheap elixirs, how do you treat the Spirit Medicine Sect?”

Jiang Li didn’t understand the question: “What does how Spirit Medicine Sect think, has to do with me? I am not the one who cannot afford elixirs. Each year, Alchemy peak gifts me many elixirs, which I can’t finish using. The extra ones, I distribute among the prefects in the Imperial Palace.”

“Then, how did you deal with the Yin Yang Heaven Seal that sensed all spiritual treasures in the world?”

“At that time, I thought that it couldn’t go on like this, and it would cause great chaos in the world. Stability was the most important thing. So, I made the Yin Yang Heaven Seal erase the divine sense of spiritual treasures again, of course, excluding Immortal Artifacts.”

“Did you allow the Fan Heaven Tower to construct spatial passages among the major dynasties?”

“Ah? Is there such a method? I never thought about it.” Jiang Li scratched his head, thinking that the other party’s thinking was very active and that he was incomparable.

“I only let Brahma Heaven Tower bring the women related to me from other worlds to Jiuzhou.”

Jiang Li asked with a sarcastic smile: “So, dear comrade Jiang Li, what have you achieved after becoming the Emperor?”
