Chapter 3:
Chapter 3: God-Tier Reward—Off the Charts! Unless…:
[Ding! Congratulations to the host. You have received a god-tier reward: Iron Body.]
As Shen Anyu claimed the god-tier reward Iron Body, his entire body was wrapped in layers of radiant light. Soon, as the light faded, his figure was revealed once again.
His skin looked as flawless as jade, faintly glowing with divine brilliance. His eyes carried the immense pressure of a giant dragon, making the surrounding air feel heavy.
“Iron Body… I probably don’t even need inner strength or defensive qi. Just this flesh alone could block bullets, maybe even artillery shells. Even if a plane exploded, I wouldn’t die…”
Feeling the overwhelming power of the Iron Body, only one phrase echoed in Shen Anyu’s mind: “Off the charts!”
Although he was only at the early stage of the Grandmaster Realm, with his impenetrable and indestructible Iron Body, even a Great Grandmaster could be beaten to death with bare hands. Not even a cultivator at the Unity of Man and Nature Realm could break through his defenses!
Shen Anyu even doubted that a supersonic missile could kill him.
If Ye Yan were to appear in front of him right now, and didn’t run, Shen Anyu was confident he could hammer him to death relying solely on the Iron Body.
With this god-tier Iron Body, he could be considered truly invincible!
“Sigh, but there’s a downside too…” Shen Anyu suddenly shook his head and sighed, his expression a little sorrowful. “Who can handle this body? No ordinary woman could survive it. Maybe someone like Bai Suzhen?”
Then, Shen Anyu used up all his Destiny Points on draws.
Most of the items didn’t catch his eye.
Among the common rewards, the small ones were things like Nutri-Happy and Huawei smartphones. The bigger ones included supercars and luxury villas.
They might be dreams for regular people, but Shen Anyu didn’t even bother looking at them. Limited edition Rolls-Royces and Bugatti Veyrons filled his garage. The top-tier riverside mansion in Modu, worth two billion, with 8,000 square meters in the city center—he was already living in it.
There were also some basic, intermediate, and advanced skills that weren’t rare. Plenty of people had them, and in the Imperial Capital, people earning a monthly salary of 100,000 could line up for them.
Once he reached the purple-tier rewards, that’s when the real treasures began to appear—things like cultivation realm breakthroughs and top-tier skills.
Any top-tier skill could allow someone to stand at the peak of the mortal world and leave their name in history.
As for gold-tier and god-tier rewards, they were priceless.
Among the rewards Shen Anyu valued:
Nineteen purple-tier rewards: Nine Innate Realm cultivation breakthroughs, two top-tier music skills, top-tier combat skill, top-tier hacking skill, top-tier driving skill…
“Ahem… rewards can be stacked? Ten Innate Realm breakthroughs can combine into one Grandmaster Realm? Ten top-tier music skills can merge into a transcendent musician class?”
Shen Anyu pondered, feeling eager.
On top of that, his luck exploded, and he obtained two gold-tier rewards.
One gold-tier Perfect Ability Copy Card—allows the user to copy one extraordinary ability from a Chosen One with even better results!
One Chosen One Locator Card—reveals the location of the nearest Chosen One and provides detailed intelligence!
“The nearest Chosen One?” Shen Anyu was surprised. Could there be more than one Chosen One in this world?
But the Destiny Plundering System didn’t answer, leaving it for him to discover on his own.
“Fine, I’ll figure it out myself…”
…
With the Destiny Plundering System in hand, it was like a heavy weight lifted from his heart.
Shen Anyu felt great.
Looking at Lin Keqing standing before him, he casually asked, “By the way, weren’t you married to that dead guy Ye Tian, Ye Yan’s elder brother? What’s going on with that?”
Lin Keqing bit her lip and remained silent.
“Not talking?” Shen Anyu raised his eyebrows. He knew how to deal with her.
“I’ll talk, I’ll talk…” Lin Keqing finally gave in.
Seeing Shen Anyu’s mischievous smile, she could only sigh in resignation.
She took a few steps back to put some space between them, steadied herself, and began, “I’m a traditional woman. Right after I married Ye Tian—Ye Yan’s elder brother—the Ye family in Modu collapsed…”
At this point, her expression became a little dazed.
She didn’t have any emotional connection with Ye Tian. The marriage had only been arranged by the Lin family to curry favor with the Ye family. They hadn’t even met more than a few times—not even held hands.
Yet the label of a “widow” had followed her for five years, and she’d been ridiculed by countless people as a bearer of bad luck.
During those five years, she locked her heart away and devoted herself fully to her fashion design company.
She had once thought that would be her life forever.
But…
She didn’t hold much resentment toward Shen Anyu, because her marriage to the Ye family was nothing but a business arrangement, and no real feelings had developed.
Instead, when faced with Shen Anyu—unrivaled in looks and overwhelming in presence—her heart wavered…
[Ding! Detected that Destiny Female Lead Lin Keqing’s affection +3. Plundering +9000 Destiny Points.]
Shen Anyu looked at Lin Keqing, feeling a bit emotional.
Zhang Ailing was absolutely right.
“And another thing—why does Ye Yan still cling to you?”
“What?” Lin Keqing froze upon hearing his question. Then her beautiful face flushed with anger, as if she’d been deeply insulted. Her peach blossom eyes, full of harmless charm, widened as she glared at Shen Anyu, “You’re talking nonsense! There’s nothing between me and Ye Yan!”
Looking at her enchanting and flawless beauty, Shen Anyu couldn’t help but sigh. “Ye Yan falling for you is only natural. Even if you were supposed to be his sister-in-law.”
“There’s no man in the world who wouldn’t be moved by you. Unless he’s a eunuch, or he doesn’t like women.”
Forget the past life—even in this life, as the top-tier heir he was, Shen Anyu had seen countless beauties. But he had never met a woman more stunning than Lin Keqing.
Even his cousin—the national goddess—could only be considered evenly matched in charm and elegance.
Hearing Shen Anyu’s sincere admiration, Lin Keqing sighed lightly, her expression tinged with melancholy. “Beauty isn’t always a blessing. If no one could see this face, maybe that would be better…”
She wasn’t stupid.
By now, she had figured it out—everything that happened to the Lin family had likely been orchestrated by Shen Anyu himself.
A self-written and self-acted scheme.
Strangely, though, she wasn’t furious. In fact, a part of her… seemed to enjoy it.
Shen Anyu smiled faintly, looked at Lin Keqing, and said leisurely, “Then how about I build a golden house and hide you away from the world?”
“Just the two of us.”
Lin Keqing quickly said, “That’s not what I meant…”
“But that’s what I meant.”
