Lin Bei squatted on the rooftop eating instant noodles. Bank balance: 137.5 yuan. His roommate thought he was useless, and his classmates barely noticed him.
He thought this was all his life would ever amount to.
Then the back of his left hand suddenly burned.
“Ten Thousand Worlds Bounty Decree bound.”
“Beginner quest: 30 push-ups. Reward: Constitution +1. Failure penalty: fart for 24 hours.”
Other people’s Systems: invincible from the start, one-click kills.
His System: help an old lady find her cat, get stray cats neutered, deliver takeout late at night.
The whole school laughed at him: “A loser thinks he can make a comeback?”
Lin Bei said nothing. He completed his 137th quest and earned a Marrow-Cleansing Pill.
A complete transformation.
His roommate stared at him. “Holy crap, who are you?”
The campus belle messaged him first. “Are you free this weekend?”
The rich kid crouched in the corner. “Bro, I was wrong.”
But this was only the beginning.
The System told him: Your brand is called the Sky-Suspending Decree, Dark Gold grade, one bearer every two thousand years.
What you’ve inherited isn’t just a System, but an organization that was wiped out to the last member.
The person hunting you is Yin Ruolan, a Nascent Soul cultivator who has waited two hundred years to resurrect someone.
She holds the other half of the secret you need.
Lin Bei stood atop Zhongnan Mountain, facing Yin Ruolan, her black robes whipping in the wind.
The brand on the back of his left hand glowed.
“What you want is in my hands. If you want it, come with me.”
A Dark Gold brand, the Sky-Suspending Decree reborn.
He would reclaim everything that belonged to the Sky-Suspending Pavilion.
Anyone who stood in his way would be eliminated.
