I’m Making a Social Spectacle in the World of Slay the Gods

Zhao Yi, a former psychiatrist, accidentally transmigrates to a modern world much like Earth. He spends twenty uneventful years living an ordinary life. But one seemingly routine trip to pick up some soy sauce completely changes the course of his life. A deadly encounter leaves him shocked to discover that the world he lives in is actually the setting of the novel Slay the Gods. On the brink of death, a System called “Legendary Life” suddenly activates, giving him a chance to survive while saddling him with an utterly absurd label: he is the “neighboring pure-hearted crush” secretly loved in childhood by Shen Qingzhu, the rebellious “Cool Guy” from the original story. And because of a childhood misunderstanding involving him dressing as a boy, he has become the recipient of 114 love letters. Faced with bizarre and mysterious monsters, the well-disciplined Night Watchers, and Shen Qingzhu, who feels inexplicably familiar with him and relentlessly probes for the truth, Zhao Yi has no choice but to rely on his unreliable System to survive in the perilous shadows of the city. Even more surprisingly, the unique power called “Kongming” gradually awakens within him. It seems to hold potential beyond imagination, and draws him ever deeper into the heart of an even greater maelstrom.
