I've Retired to Eat Instant Noodles, So Don't Make Me Fight

[Urban high martial arts + play the pig to eat the tiger + mastermind behind the scenes + invincible hero + no goody-two-shoes]

Three years ago, spiritual qi revival began. War God Chu Ci single-handedly suppressed the rifts between myriad worlds, then disappeared after exhausting his strength. Three years later, he is holed up in Jiang City as a librarian earning a base salary of just 3,000, bound to the “Retirement Slacker System.”

He thought he could live out his days in peace, until the head of Jiang City's foremost martial arts family, a junior he had casually rescued and mentored in the past, showed off his newly adopted “godfather” in grand style. The “godfather” was using a fragmentary cultivation manual Chu Ci had casually tossed aside years ago, claiming to be the hidden War God himself and basking in boundless glory.

Chu Ci glanced at the fake grandstanding onstage, then at the System notification: [If the Host's cultivation is exposed, their pension will be deducted.]

With no other choice, he pretended to be an ordinary man who couldn't lift a finger and joined the crowd.

Until mutant beasts breached the city walls, the fake War God wet himself, and his junior waited in despair for death. Then librarian Chu Ci picked up a rusty paper knife and, with one slash, split open the sky for thirty thousand zhang.
