"Damn it, you gods above, even if you want to mess with me, this kinda joke is too much, right?”

In the sealed basement that reeked of dampness and mold, Liu Xiaoyao lay on a plank, a bitter, self-deprecating smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

As a king amongst soldiers, who had spent years battling in various war-torn countries, often teetering on the brink of life and death, all Liu Xiaoyao wanted after attaining his fame and achievements was to return to the city and lead a peaceful and easy life.

Who would have expected that not even three days after his city-life return, when he hadn’t yet found that sense of happiness, he would bizarrely receive a courier delivery!

Four characters were written on the package… 'God-slaying System!'

He hadn't given it much thought at that time and opened the package out of curiosity, and then…

In a flash of light, he actually time-travelled!

The original owner of this body was also named Liu Xiaoyao, the young master of a large family.

However, this young master got into big trouble before his transcendence.

His father was murdered, his fiancée, the town's beauty, cuckolded him, and what was more infuriating was that all these were plotted by the adopted brother whom the whole family treasured.

At that time, he went berserk after discovering that he was cuckolded.

Regardless of whether the other party was the son of the leader of one of Star Wind City's most influential gangs, the Tiger and Wolf gang, he directly confronted him.

Though, he was no match for the gang leader's son, he managed to get several bites in and left the other party in a sorry state.

But the consequences were severe.

He was stripped of all his cultivation, and thrown into the 'Prisoners' Sea,' a place from which no one has ever survived!

…

After digesting these memories, Liu Xiaoyao was frozen for at least ten minutes.

Only after repeatedly confirming his surroundings did he ascertain his current predicament.

Transmigrated, but moreover, with absolutely nothing on him, he had been sold!

Sold by a woman, betrayed by a fellow brother, and even on the brink of death!

As soon as this ship stops, the Demonic Sea Prison will be their destination which also means his death was imminent!

"A shameless lowly woman, and she’s also addressed as the number one beauty?"

"An ungrateful swine, he’s also addressed as a brother?"

Liu Xiaoyao's face was somewhat gloomy, his eyes slightly squinted, and a chilling light flickered within them.

It’s not that he cared about life or death, but the actions of Liu Qixuan and Xuan Ziqing made him especially furious.

It can be said that these two types of people are the ones he despised the most.

If Xuan Ziqing hadn’t been engaged, she could have done what she wished. Yet since she was engaged, yet still acted this way, what was her point?

Then there was Liu Qixuan. Like the common saying goes, "even a dog knows to wag its tail at its master." But he, at the very least, should still have a shred of human decency, right?

But the actions he has done, did they resemble a person at all?

Unconsciously, Liu Xiaoyao had already immersed himself into this body.

This is a sublimation after memory fusion... The fusion of emotions!

Ding!

"Memory value, emotional value, and anger value perfectly matched!"

"Body and soul fusion completed, host identity confirmed!"

"God Slayer System activated!"

As Liu Xiaoyao was in a state of anger, a sudden voice appeared in his mind.

"God Slayer System?"

Liu Xiaoyao widened his eyes, "What the hell is that?"

He had heard of the WIN7 system and the Android system, but what on earth was the God Slayer System?

Boom!

Just as he was pondering, there was a sudden loud noise in his mind.

"Congratulations, Host, for obtaining the passive skill 'Blood Devouring!'. This skill can absorb blood essence, automatically replenishing powerful strength!"

"Congratulations, Host, for obtaining the skill 'Scanning!'. This skill can be used to view all things within a ten-meter radius, but it is hindered by objects such as stones. This skill can be used three times a day, each time lasting ten minutes!"

"Congratulations, Host, for obtaining a ten-slot storage bag!"

"Congratulations, Host, for obtaining a mortal dagger!"

"Congratulations, host, you have obtained one Body Restoration Pill! Reminder, consume the Body Restoration Pill directly to recover from all injuries within five minutes!"

"All items and skills can be used directly through conscious thought!"

…

When the voices ceased, Liu Xiaoyao noticed a red-and-black health bar appeared within his mind, with two characters written on it… 'Bloodlust!'

Beside it, there was a skill column that contained a 'Scan' button.

Apart from that, a backpack also appeared in his mind, containing a dagger and a pill.

Upon seeing this, Liu Xiaoyao felt he was playing a game.

However, regardless of whether it was a game or not, the most important thing for him under the current circumstances was to survive.

The current situation was extremely critical for him; he might die at any moment.

Therefore, he didn't overthink and directly activated his consciousness.

Bang!

Sure enough, a gray pill emerged in his palm.

Without any hesitations, he swallowed the pill.

Boom!

The moment he swallowed the pill, he felt as if his body had exploded.

A terrifying force began to run wild within his body.

...

Five minutes later, Liu Xiaoyao slowly opened his eyes.

At that moment, a hint of a smile appeared within his pupils.

"This system is real!"

He muttered and got up, stretching his limbs.

The injuries were indeed completely healed, and the power was fully restored.

A fifth-rank martial artist. Such a level was not high, but for the current Liu Xiaoyao, at least he possessed the power to counterattack and wouldn't just wait to die!

"Scan!"

Immediately, he moved his consciousness and used the 'Scan' skill.

Suddenly, he felt an invisible light flashing within his body, spreading all around.

Immediately, the situation within a ten-meter range was transmitted to Liu Xiaoyao's mind instantaneously.

This was a large ship with a width of ten meters and a length of approximately thirty meters.

His current location in the basement was near the stern of the ship, so, the view he saw didn't even reach halfway down the ship.

In fact, the area he scanned was reduced, after all, he was sealed in the basement. Under the situation of being separated by wooden boards, the scan was affected.

Thankfully, the impact he received was rather limited.

He could still see the six people on board and, importantly, he could also hear their conversation.

"Senior Brother Quan, how long do we have to drift about?"

"Indeed, if we keep drifting, we may be in danger too!"

"Let's keep drifting. We've only been out for about half a day. There may be other ships passing by at such a distance. If he's lucky and gets rescued, it's going to be hard to explain when we get back!"

"With this ghost-infested Prisoner's Sea, who would dare to drift randomly this way? Look at this sea surface, does it look like there are people here?"

"If we leave him here and he still manages to survive, that would truly be a supernatural spectacle!"

"If Senior Brother Quan is really not at ease, I can just stab him, let him bleed to death, then throw him into the sea, right?"

"Yes! He's such a waste, requiring so many of us to take a risk. Damn bad luck! Kill him early and dump him, and we'll be done!"

"Let's drift for another half an hour, then throw him overboard!"

Senior Brother Quan said, "Senior Brother Hong Yang said, 'Don't kill him, let him die in the sea, just give him a piece of wood, let him clutch to it in despair until his death.'"

"Haha, it seems that this kid actually managed to completely offend our Senior Brother Hong Yang!"

"Speaking of which, he deserved it. Just because of one woman? It should be his good fortune that our Senior Brother Hong Yang took a fancy to her! As long as his woman satisfies our Senior Brother Hong Yang well, wouldn't his position in the Tiger and Wolf Gang soar?"

"Can only say that the kid is foolish..."

"......"

In the basement, Liu Xiaoyao's ears were continuously filled with the conversation of these six people.
