I Make the Heavenly Laws

Lin Yue transmigrated into a world of immortal cultivation ruled by “rules.” Every mountain sect had its own eerie laws: “Do not look in the mirror after midnight,” “If you hear someone call your full name, never turn around,” “Anything you borrow must be repaid threefold”… Those who broke the rules suffered a shattered Dao heart and were reduced to ashes. While everyone else trembled and struggled to survive, Lin Yue discovered that he had a book in his head called The Guide to Analyzing and Altering Rules. He changed one sect rule from “No shouting” to “You must shout,” and overnight the entire sect became a bunch of chatterboxes, driving the elders out of seclusion ahead of schedule. He was quietly enjoying himself when he uncovered a shocking secret: these rules hadn't formed naturally. Someone had written and maintained them. Their author was a terrifying being known by the codename “Keeper of Order,” and Lin Yue's ability to alter the rules came from the other half of the Keeper of Order's soul, which had split off long ago. Even more absurdly, every rule Lin Yue altered was secretly repairing a flaw in the Heavenly Dao that had long since collapsed. He thought he was causing trouble, but he was actually saving the world. The cold-faced sect leader from the neighboring sect chased after him, determined to kill him, but before long she had become his top enforcer and rule tester. The foremost demon-path enchantress declared she would capture him for research, but somehow her research turned to figuring out his favorite foods. The foremost righteous immortal accused him of “disrupting the Heavenly Dao,” but after watching him rewrite a “certain-death calamity” and save three hundred mortals, she blushed and asked, “Could you change the rules a little, maybe to say, ‘You must marry me’?” Looking at the three women gathered around him, Lin Yue sighed. “I only wanted to make some money. How did I end up saving the Heavenly Dao and picking up three wives along the way?”
