The improved female villains regained their memories.

The female villains all looked at Yang Pingsheng, including Luo Benmo, who was sitting in Yang Pingsheng's arms.

Song Panning had no intention of helping. After all, this was part of her and Yang Pingsheng's plan, and they had made so many preparations beforehand, accompanying this person and that person, all to make Yang Pingsheng attract hatred at this moment.

However, the expected answer did not come for a long time.

"?"

Even Song Panning was puzzled and looked up at Yang Pingsheng.

Yang Pingsheng's eyes were momentarily confused, then suddenly flashed with a sharp light.

His face gradually stiffened, like a monarch without expression.

Those dark eyes gradually focused, and then the head stiffly turned to look at everyone present.

The camera panned across the scene, finally turning its head to focus on Wen Shihan standing in the shadows.

Stared at with such intense gazes, Wen Shihan was completely bewildered and couldn't help but reveal himself: "Brother, what's wrong?"

Su Murong crossed his legs, propped his chin on his hand, and said with a smile, "I guess he's thinking about how to make this up, right? If he doesn't do a good job, only this gloomy-faced guy here will protect him."

"Pingsheng," Song Panning asked, frowning, "Are you alright?"

"……fine."

He turned back, his calm eyes looking at Song Panning.

"I'm very good."

He paused, then looked around and understood his current situation.

[So that's how it is, I've traveled back to this time.]

A massive flow of information spread through his mind, which he absorbed completely, and soon learned about the arrangements made by Song Panning, Yang Luoyi, Ling Tiandu, and others.

Although the amount of information was limited, this information, which was like a god's-eye view, allowed him to clearly see the three people's plans.

[Reborn and resurrected]

[It seems to be her doing, but she's good at using talismans; I've never heard of her being skilled in the power of space and time.]

Yang Pingsheng frowned, feeling that there was more to the story than met the eye regarding the female villain.

The eighth female villain, now all his memories have returned, and he remembers them very clearly. The eighth female villain did not have any time-space power.

Her talent lies in drawing talismans, and she can create talismans out of thin air and use them immediately. While others rely on deadly moves to fight their enemies, she relies on talismans.

She shouldn't be able to use time-space powers, and most importantly, she didn't have the chance to inscribe talismans on me, but my ability to travel back in time is clearly thanks to her...

I feel like there are more doubts now.

The phantom that had been guiding Yang Pingsheng all along was her, and it was also her who allowed him to start over at the crucial moment. Although the woman in his memory did not have such abilities, Yang Pingsheng felt a sense of incongruity when the owner of the phantom revealed her true identity.

Although life and death had just been a split second apart, the events had been too profound. Yang Pingsheng's eyes were deep and blank, and he was in a daze, his thoughts clashing.

[Talismans, illusions, time, the eighth incarnation—could it be that she is the one who altered the system?]

The sheer volume and complexity of information caused Yang Pingsheng to experience a sharp pain in his forehead.

Suddenly, a fragrant breeze wafted in front of him. He looked up and saw Song Panning leaning over, looking at him with concern.

"Pingsheng, are you alright?"

"...It's nothing, I'm just a little tired. Let's call it a day, you should all get some rest too."

He stopped dwelling on these issues and stood up. After speaking, he glanced at Wen Shihan behind the shadows and said again, "Xiaohan, come with me for a moment."

Wen Shihan was taken aback at first, then smiled and replied, "Okay."

A meeting that was originally planned just fell through.

As night deepened, he stepped into the small house in the backyard, declined the invitations from the other female villains, and sat inside alone.

Wen Shihan followed up, thoughtfully setting up an array and using countless reconnaissance-type immortal techniques to cover the surrounding area.

Yang Pingsheng asked Xu Anlu for a map of the Qian Kingdom, spread it out on the table, and quietly looked at it.

Although I don't know exactly what she did to me, I now have an intelligence advantage after returning.

I now have a clear understanding of the arrangements made by all parties. As long as I plan carefully before acting, I will naturally achieve the results I desire.

Yang Pingsheng composed himself and stared intently at the map.

That sword spirit heart was still beating violently.

He used to never actively pursue anything, but now he knows that no matter how right or how well others strategize, he still has to walk his own path.

Only you can give yourself a sense of security.

The sword spirit in his chest pounded more and more fiercely. With such a broad perspective, how should Yang Pingsheng act to grasp the future and achieve a good ending?

[Xiao Lu had made arrangements, and so did her sister, but regardless of whose arrangements they were, one was destroyed by the strong man's sword light, and the other was caught off guard by Pan Ning's scheme and didn't have time to make any arrangements. As for Pan Ning's plan, besides using me to test Yang Luoyi's attitude, the most important thing was the Northern Dragon Vein.]

A large amount of information went through Yang Pingsheng's mind, and then he let out a heavy sigh.

There are two dragon veins, one of which is the border of the northern grasslands, the Great Wall.

The other is the Fengyun Mountain Range, which is also the headquarters of the Wan Jin Chamber of Commerce, so it is the force behind Yang Luoyi.

Both Pan Ning and Ling Tiandu had their eyes on the Qian Kingdom's dragon vein. Pan Ning went to the Great Wall to establish an array based on the dragon vein, and then led her sister to find Fang Wu to guard the royal dragon vein. She made this arrangement because she didn't know where the other dragon veins were, and she also wanted to force Ling Tiandu to have a decisive battle on the grasslands outside the northern border, just as Tianren Mountain had agreed.

However, Ling Tiandu somehow deduced the exact location of the dragon vein, and simultaneously dispatched two groups of people: one to probe the northern border, and the other to force the royal family to reveal the location of the dragon vein. Then, somehow, he deduced the correct location of the dragon vein, which led to the battle at Fengyun Mountain Range.

Fierce battle in the North!

The Battle of Fengyun Mountain Range!!

He never imagined that the outside world would develop so excitingly and unpredictably before his death in his previous life.

If it weren't for the female villain from the eighth world providing him with a perspective and a wealth of related information, he would probably be completely lost even if he were reborn.

Regardless of whether it's Pan Ning or Ling Tiandu, the ultimate winner will still be Yang Luoyi. Their group's power is terrifying. First, a strong man attracted attention in the Fengyun Mountains, making Ling Tiandu believe in his deductions. Therefore, he subsequently invested a large amount of combat power into the Fengyun Mountains. Then, he sent a mysterious person to seal the True Immortal combat power of both the villain in the Northern Territory and the protagonist of the Fengyun Mountains. This operation first disrupted Song Pan Ning's plan and then forced Ling Tiandu to forcibly deduce the Fengyun Mountains.

Later, when the Heavenly Calamity descended, the last True Immortal warrior of the grasslands, Jiu Bahuang, was sealed away. Meanwhile, the Guardian Sect's forces were blocked by a mysterious force, unable to enter the grasslands to provide support. The Northern Territory and the Central Plains, simultaneously suppressed by the grassland calamity, were too preoccupied to help themselves. Even someone like my sister couldn't force her way in to carry out a rescue. In the end, those within the grasslands, lacking sufficient strength, could only watch helplessly as Yang Luoyi and her group achieved success.

“…It’s like ascending to heaven.” Yang Pingsheng exhaled heavily, his beating heart gradually slowing down.

The game between the various parties was truly a back-and-forth battle, incredibly exciting. If he didn't now have a complete perspective, even if it happened again, he would be completely outmaneuvered.

Perhaps, as Song Panning said, the heroes and heroines of the main world are as numerous as the stars in the sky. Even if they are not the protagonists or villains, which of them who can step onto this stage is simple?

Shi Guijia, who has never appeared, Yang Luoyi, who longs for her father's love, Song Panning, who is resourceful and cunning, and Ling Tiandu, who is good at deduction, all scheme against each other before Yang Ping's death. In the end, the one who wins is the sixth villain, Shi Guijia.

No, she didn't really win, because the eighth female villain made her move.

With the help of Yang Pingsheng, she reversed time and space, returning everything to the beginning. Whether they were the victors or the losers, everyone was back on the same starting line.

But now, there is another cheater, namely Yang Pingsheng.

"...You chose me, so what is your plan?" Yang Pingsheng understood everything, his mind reeling, and he murmured to himself.

"Brother?" Wen Shihan peeked at him from the side.

Yang Pingsheng smiled, reached out and patted her head, and said, "It's alright."

Wen Shihan looked at him suspiciously. For some reason, she felt that her brother seemed to have become a little gentler towards her.

Is it just my imagination?

She frowned in thought, the dim candlelight shining down, revealing the rosy glow on her face.

Chapter 375 Both Sides Are Using Cheats

Last time, Pan Ning used Xiao Han's talent to construct a unique cultivation formation, allowing me to improve my strength before implementing the plan. However, it turns out that no matter how high Xiao Han's talent is, it's still too much of a stretch to improve to the point where she can compete with these heroes in such a short time.

Yang Pingsheng's eyes were deep and mysterious as he thought to himself.

In this game of chess where the protagonists and antagonists are locked in a struggle, earth immortals are merely cannon fodder, celestial immortals are just passersby, and even the most invincible true immortals are at risk of being schemed against and perishing.

Yang Pingsheng's strength is too weak, so weak that he can't even be a bystander and watch the drama unfold.

[My sister is only a half-step True Immortal, yet she can fight back and forth with top-tier True Immortals, her strength is undeniable. But even she is helpless against Pan Ning's formation and Xiao Jia's magical artifacts; at best, she can only protect herself and avoid being dragged down by others. True Immortals can only do so much, let alone someone like me, a mere Earth Immortal? Although I am an immortal, I am bound by various factors and cannot move freely. If this continues, I cannot even protect myself, let alone provide peace of mind for others.]

If you lack the strength, you have to find other ways to improve.

Not all villains are true immortals. For example, the mortal Su Murong and the earth immortal Song Panning are not true immortals, but they have the ability to compete with true immortals.

The key is not cultivation level, but talent.

To stand on the stage and fight against all the competitors in such a short time, the key is to find your own strengths and use them to attack the enemy's weaknesses.

The so-called Great Dao is fifty, the Heavenly Dao is forty-nine, and humanity has escaped one of them.

There is no absolute dead end in this world. No matter how much the heavens hate you, they will at least leave you a glimmer of hope. And people often rely on this glimmer of hope to turn danger into safety and change their impoverished circumstances.

Moreover, who said Yang Pingsheng had reached a dead end?

I have shared similar experiences with these villains. Now, Xiaohan trusts me, my sister cares about me, and others have gathered around me because of me. I also have an intelligence advantage now. If I use it wisely, I can gather the villains' power.

"If the villains can unite as one and work together with one heart, what is there to fear even if it is the will of Heaven?" Yang Pingsheng muttered to himself.

In fact, Song Panning's approach was the same as Yang Pingsheng's last time.

She also strongly advocated bringing the villains together, but she didn't trust them. Therefore, she could only use Yang Pingsheng as a bargaining chip, constantly using scheming and self-interest to exchange benefits with these female villains, thereby motivating them.

This is not impossible, but as it turns out, none of the villains are good people. On the surface, they listen to Song Panning, but in secret they still do things.

If you have subordinates, you let them handle things; if you don't, you'll suddenly change your mind when something happens and refuse to follow orders.

Even Su Murong, the earliest partner, was smiling and befriending Song Panning while sending the Four Spirits to cause trouble. Didn't she take only the Vermilion Bird with her when she went to the Northern Territory?

The villains are not ordinary people; they are all very opinionated. Purely self-interested motivations are useless because they will turn on you at any time if things go wrong.

But Yang Pingsheng is different. People use him as a pawn, using emotions to connect with each female villain. He is the only one who can drive these female villains with emotions.

Song Panning was certainly aware of this, but she didn't do it last time. The reason was simple: she also had her own selfish motives.

See, all female villains are like this. They never rely on others to get what they want; they find their own way. Because everyone has this mentality, Song Panning alone cannot possibly coordinate all the female villains.

Only Yang Pingsheng could do that.

Compared to Song Panning, he was the one who had the opportunity to bring the villains together.

Previously, as a human chess piece, he naturally didn't have this opportunity, but now it's different. The system has been destroyed, and the Sword Soul Heart has compensated for the price he paid in Taixu. In addition, the female villain of the eighth life helped him cheat. All the elements are in place, and only Yang Pingsheng needs to take action.

Guided by the philosophy of "peace of mind", Yang Pingsheng is very willing to take action.
