Help! I Transmigrated into Yun Shan, and the Flame Emperor Wants to Wipe Out My Entire Clan

[Lighthearted + outrageous schemes + mastermind + wish fulfillment]

I transmigrated into Battle Through the Heavens as Yun Shan, and I'm freaking out!

According to the original plot, in a few years a young man named Xiao Yan will storm the Misty Cloud Sect with Heavenly Flames and grind me to dust!

To stay alive, I decide to... get on the protagonist's good side early!

Xiao Yan gets his engagement broken off? I give him pills and cultivation techniques, calling it "tempering a genius"!

Xiao Yan needs a Heavenly Flame? I "accidentally" leak a map so he can get it with ease!

The Soul Hall wants to strike from the shadows? I'll "shadow" them first!

Before long, the whole continent thinks Yun Shan is unfathomable. Only I know the truth: I'm just an old man trying to stay alive!

Years later, Xiao Yan ascends to the throne of Emperor and stands beside me. He pats my shoulder and sighs, "Brother, I wouldn't be where I am today without you!"

Me: "...Heh, don't mention it." (Inner monologue: Bro, if you survive, I survive!)
