I'm in The Outcast, but Why Did the System Run Off to Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils?

Mo Chen arrives in The Outcast as a novice disciple of the Yanwu Hall branch of the Truth-Seeking Society, and as the cousin of Huang Ning, the society's leader.

Wait, the Truth-Seeking Society?

Is that the group formed by a few old sect leaders after Zhang Huaiyi killed them all, forcing them to band together to survive? The one the Four Families look down on, Zhao Fangxu uses as a tool, and that joined the Ten Elders' circle after being lured in?

Well, at least it isn't some unknown little sect, and it has close ties to Nadutong.

Just as Mo Chen is in the Qi gathering stage of his hundred-day foundation-building process, he suddenly awakens a System. The only problem is, this System insists that he is in the world of Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils.

Complete the assigned tasks, and he will receive divine manuals, pills, and treasures.

[Daily Task: Please bow three times to the beautiful immortal in front of you.]

[Task Reward: Northern Darkness Divine Skill]

Looking at Xu Xiaxia, the coconut-milk goddess he often uses as an excuse to apologize, Mo Chen drops to his knees and bows without a second thought.

He thought that once he obtained a divine skill, he would be able to punch Wang Ai, kick Lu Ci, and replace Zhang Zhiwei as the living legend of the age.

But the System's tasks soon gave him a rude awakening.

[Daily Task: Please say to the princess of Western Xia before you, “You look exactly like my Meng Gu in that dream.”]

[Task Reward: Six Yang Palms of the Tianshan Mountains]

Looking at Dou Mei, the poison that pierces the heart, Mo Chen hesitates for a moment, then speaks after seeing the reward.

Dou Mei: ??? (Her prayer beads scatter all over the floor.)

[Emergency Task: Use the Eighteen Dragon-Subduing Palms on A Zhu before you, and cry passionately, “No, I killed you by mistake!”]

[Task Reward: Tendon-Transforming Scripture]

Mo Chen looks at Xia He, with Zhang Lingyu beside her, then strikes with his palm and cries out with heartfelt emotion.

Zhang Lingyu: ???

Why does it feel like a green glow just flashed above my head?
