Xiao Yi, the third son of Prince Jing'an of the Great Yan Dynasty, is widely regarded across the capital as the number-one good-for-nothing young lord.
Martial arts? Not interested.
Court politics? Too much trouble.
As for living, lying flat and basking in the sun is what really matters. While others painstakingly cultivate their techniques and fight for power, all he wants is a quiet afternoon nap in the back courtyard of the prince's manor.
Until one day, a cold System notification exploded in his mind:
“Ding! Host has been lying flat for three hours. Reward: [Primordial Overlord Art]!”
“Ding! Host yawned, triggering passive cultivation. Realm breakthrough: Martial Arts Grandmaster!”
“Ding! Host has been daydreaming for the time it takes an incense stick to burn. He has comprehended the peerless martial art [Finger of Annihilation]!”
Xiao Yi: ...? This isn't cultivation, it's enjoying life. Get it?
What he didn't know was that the aloof princess who had broken off their engagement was keeping a close eye on how quickly he advanced, the martial world’s holy maiden who had once sneered at him was secretly watching him sleep from a rooftop, and the spies on the frontier were already writing legends about him with trembling hands:
“A dragon stirs in Great Yan. One sleep pacifies the northern frontier; one fury shatters the Divine Court.”
Xiao Yi could only protest that he was innocent: I really just want to lie flat! Don't make things up. I have nothing to do with that dragon...
Very well written, keep it up!!
