Synopsis

Zhang Zizai transmigrated into the Great Shang and was sent to Chaoge as a hostage. Fortunately, he awakened a System: as long as he was killed, he would become a Saint. Zhang Zizai devoted himself to seeking death, but the gods secretly overheard his thoughts...

King Zhou: “I intend to grant the Human Emperor the power to confer godhood. I appoint Zhang Zizai as Crown Prince and authorize him to confer the gods in my stead!”

Nuwa: “I intend to unite the human and demon races and bring the Human Dao to greatness. I’ll send the Demon Queen, the Nine-Tailed Fox, to marry Zhang Zizai!”

Tongtian: “Zhang Zizai’s willingness to sacrifice himself for all living beings accords with the way of my Jie Sect, which seizes a glimmer of hope. I appoint him the Jie Sect’s young leader!”

Zhang Zizai: “I just want to get myself killed. Why is that so hard?!”
