The Protagonists Went Mad After the Temp Worker Faked His Death

[Two male leads + everyone falls for the beloved bottom + many one-sided crushes on him + an official love interest]

[Optimistic, straight senior-disciple bottom x loyal younger-disciple top]

Ling Yuanhe, a veteran online-novel fan, transmigrated while reading a coworker's recommended cultivation harem novel. He became a background character whose name never even appeared.

The mysterious voice that brought him here told him that the primordial chaos energy, which should have gathered to form the Child of Destiny, had scattered in every direction instead of flowing along its destined course. At this rate, forget saving the world, there was no guarantee the protagonist would even be born. So this thing calling itself the System tasked Ling Yuanhe with gathering the primordial chaos energy, keeping the world's story on track. Once the world was repaired, it would set him free.

Dutifully, Ling Yuanhe took on the role of a good senior brother. He did his best to guide the destined protagonist as they fought monsters, leveled up, and acquired equipment and magical treasures. He kept at it until the protagonist became a powerful figure in his own right, then staged his own death and retired in style.

But perhaps he had made such an unforgettable exit that all the prodigies he'd met on the way up began searching for him with everything they had.

Ling Yuanhe, trembling in some obscure corner: System, they won't do anything to me if they catch me, will they?

A dark, obsessive voice answered him: Senior Brother, I've found you.
