Chapter 1: The Night of Betrayal
On a dark, silent night, a man named Soyang was making love to his girlfriend in a dimly lit room. Her smile was strange — almost twisted — but lost in the moment, Soyang didn't think much of it.
Suddenly, as his breathing grew heavy, his vision started to blur. The world around him faded into darkness.
From the shadows, a man in his thirties appeared behind Soyang. Without a word, he threw Soyang onto the bed with a wicked grin.
Soyang struggled to move, his body weakening. "What's happening?" he asked, looking at his girlfriend. "Why are you laughing? Who is this man?"
The older man chuckled menacingly.
"You still don't get it, do you?" he said. "She's not your girlfriend. She's mine."
Soyang's heart dropped. "Why…? Why would you do this?" he asked the woman he thought he loved. "I gave you everything. I've loved you for so long."
She scoffed coldly. "I never loved you. I only wanted your money. That's why I pretended to be your girlfriend."
The old man began to touch her intimately in front of Soyang, slowly undressing her while she responded with seductive moans. Soyang could only watch, powerless, poisoned and paralyzed.
His heart screamed, but no sound came from his lips. He was dying — his breath shallow, his sight dimming.
As his life slipped away, one final thought echoed in his mind:
"If I get another chance at life, I'll make every woman to pay 'll rise, and I'll take my revenge."
And then… everything went black.
A void of darkness stretched endlessly.
In the center of it all, crimson mist swirled like blood in water. A screen floated before him, dripping with a sinister glow. Then, a cold mechanical voice echoed in Soyang's mind:
"The Lust System is now activating…"
Soyang, still floating in the void, frowned. What is this...?
The voice responded as if reading his thoughts:
"I am the Lust System — a system of revenge against women. Do you wish to exact vengeance upon those who betrayed you? If yes, you will be transmitted into the World of Cultivation."
His heart boiled with rage as the memory of betrayal returned.
"Yes. I want revenge… on all of them."
The system buzzed.
"Transmission confirmed. Transferring soul to the Cultivation Realm..."
A violent rush of energy surged through him. His body dissolved in light — and then silence.
---
When he opened his eyes again, he found himself in a completely different world.
His limbs felt numb. His breath shallow. He couldn't move.
Where am I...? Why can't I move...?
A calm voice responded within his mind:
"Hello, Host. I am your Lust System. You are now in the Cultivation Realm."
Soyang struggled to speak. Why… why can't I move my body?
"This body once belonged to a man who, like you, was betrayed by a woman. His girlfriend cheated on him, stole his spirit pendant — a family heirloom — and allowed her ex-boyfriend to kill him."
Anger erupted in Soyang's chest. Even in this world... women are the same. Pretending to love, but always chasing wealth and power.
The system continued:
"Host, your current body is too weak for cultivation. But I possess a special method — the Path of Revenge through Dual Cultivation."
Dual cultivation? What do I have to do?
"To grow stronger, you must use women — seduce them, break them, and take their power. Crush their pride, steal their techniques, destroy their hearts. Through this path, you will reach the peak — the Supreme Cultivator."
Soyang's expression twisted into a cold smirk.
"Then so be it. With the Lust System by my side, I will rise. I will destroy every arrogant, selfish, manipulative woman who stands in my way.
This world... will tremble beneath my revenge."
Soyang lay on the cold ground, still unable to move.
"System… please… help me."
"Activating beginner's gift," the Lust System replied. "You have been granted a restoration pill. It will heal your body and increase your natural charm, enhancing your connection with women."
With great effort, Soyang consumed the pill. Warmth surged through his veins. His body began to mend rapidly. Muscles returned, strength filled his limbs, and his appearance became sharper, more refined — unnaturally handsome.
He slowly stood up, stepping out into a vibrant, mystical world. Strange beasts roamed the distant hills, spirit plants glowed under the twin suns, and ancient mountains loomed in the horizon. For the first time in his life — or afterlife — Soyang smiled.
"Host," the system spoke again, "you have inherited the memories of your body's previous owner. His first desire for revenge lies in this village. Her name is Twinkle — the woman who betrayed and helped murder him."
Clothed in rags, Soyang made his way toward the village. He kept his presence hidden, watching Twinkle from afar. She looked innocent — delicate, even — but her heart held poison.
"System," he whispered, "what do I do now?"
"Twinkle possesses a rare Spirit Energy Body — it naturally absorbs energy from her surroundings. Through dual cultivation, you can absorb her potential and begin your own path."
"But won't others notice?"
"I'll set a spiritual barrier. No one will sense a thing."
Late at night, Soyang silently entered her home. As he stepped inside, he saw her returning from the bath, wrapped in a thin robe.
Her eyes widened in horror when she saw him.
"You...? You're supposed to be dead!"
Soyang smirked.
"You look surprised. This is revenge, baby. Let's see how it feels to be used and discarded."
