On the first day after Lin Yan transmigrated, he had barely escaped a snake with half his life when a tsundere System forced him to swallow the Carefree Art.
System: [Go to the Langhuan Blessed Land and make copies of the manuals within three days, or you’ll be erased.]
Lin Yan: [Can I skip it? I’m afraid I’ll get riddled with traps like a porcupine.]
The System grumbled as it shoved a map of the traps into his hands, then quietly marked the key points for using the Cloud-Stepping Steps in red. It could complain all it wanted, but it still had to spoon-feed him.
While other transmigrators rely on martial arts to force their way through, Lin Yan relies on the System to keep him alive:
He waits for the rightful owners to leave before copying their manuals, only siphons off excess inner energy, drops to his knees whenever he meets an expert, then turns around and uses modern tricks to leave them completely baffled.
System: [Host, could you try to have a little ambition?]
Lin Yan slips away with the manual he just secretly copied: [You can only win if you stay alive!]
From stealing manuals and building up his faction in the Demi-Gods and Semi-Devils world, to scavenging black iron and riding Yang Guo’s coattails in the Return of the Condor Heroes world, then rampaging through the Zhuxian world and the myriad heavens of the primordial world...
No one expected that the protagonist who once hid behind a tree to steal mountain dates would eventually take the tsundere System along and turn the battlefields of the myriad heavens into his own backyard by keeping his head down.
“System, look at this Martial Emperor’s throne. I just kept lying low, and now it’s mine. Was it worth it?”
System: [...Get lost.] (Secretly fills the “Myriad Heavens Campaign Progress” bar one notch further.)
