Chapter 3: Job: Programmer
"Hey, isn't that the Chen family young master?"
A hushed voice broke the stillness, drawing Chen Mo's attention.
"I heard the Chen sect was wiped out overnight when he was away on a mission," another whispered conspiratorially.
"Shhh...stop speaking, he can hear you." ViiSiit for latest novels
"What of it? It's not like there's anything he can do about it. Hahaha..."
A mocking laugh rang out, only to be swiftly shushed. "Fufufu...don't speak about him like that. After all, he's Sect Master Chen now."
"Hahaha...my bad, I forgot he became a sect master. Everyone else died, after all."
Chen Mo stirred from his prone position, the cruel words piercing the fog of his returning consciousness. 'Where is this place? What happened to me?' His mind raced as fragmented memories trickled back. 'I remember seeing a blue light and then...argh, I can't recall anything else.'
"Argh, what's going on?" he growled, clutching his head as searing pain lanced through his skull. He rolled back and forth, fingers digging deeper into his long black hair with each agonizing wave.
'It hurts so much; I feel like my head is being pierced by countless needles over and over again.'
'Now that I think about it, I'm overly aware of my surroundings. It's as if a restriction has been lifted from my body. I can feel it - what I've always longed for, the power of creation.'
'When creating games before, I could craft whatever I desired, yet I always felt it wasn't my true limit. Now, the freedom of creation flows through me unchecked.'
Calling forth the system interface, he studied his stats:

'Not a bad starting point. While I lack cultivation, these cheat skills more than make up for it. All I need is to copy some cultivation data, and I'll be able to get started.' A sly smile played across his lips as he sensed the concealed presences. "Since you're already here, how about you show yourselves?"
