I Am the White Moonlight of the Dragon-Arrogant Protagonist

Lin Yijue received a mission from System 512: become the white moonlight of the overpowered male lead in a certain cultivation novel with no romance.

He served as the white moonlight for seven years, then successfully retired from the role. Unexpectedly, he died in the real world and could only transmigrate into a book, where he would have to live from then on.

When he opened his eyes again, the overpowered male lead had become the chief disciple of the greatest sect.

And he was a little beggar wandering the streets.

The System warned him that the male lead of a no-romance novel couldn't fall in love before conquering the world. Otherwise, the world would collapse, and he, the male lead, and everyone else would turn to cosmic dust!

With the warning put so plainly, Lin Yijue naturally didn't dare acknowledge him.

But...

512, even though he keeps me as a stand-in, I still feel a little jealous.

512, he has so many friends now. Maybe he doesn't need me. I'm really happy for him.

512, he bought so many ingredients and made the dishes I used to cook. He's pretty good at it.

512, I said I couldn't cultivate, but he still searched for days to find rare treasures to give me. I lied to him again. My heart hurts.

512, he said he likes me. How could he do that? Has he forgotten "me"?!

512, I think he's recognized me. I don't want to keep lying to him.

[Serious Version, Hero's Perspective]

Chu Yunduan once had a white moonlight.

High in the heavens, untouched by the mundane world.

At eighteen, he gave in to an impertinent desire and tried to reach the moon, only to make it vanish from the world.

Later, he discovered that the moon had returned. This time, he would protect it at all costs and destroy anything that dared to hurt Lin Yijue.

[Goofy Version, Hero's Perspective]

Chu Yunduan had been chasing someone for a long time.

After being rejected twice, by the person he loved and by reality, he chose to keep working on himself.

He kept working on himself, and kept working on himself,

until he became the chief disciple of Qinghong Sect. His crush said, "I like strong people."

He broke through to the Nascent Soul stage. His crush said, "The Golden Bell Master of Wendao Sect took first place at the Elites' Gathering. That's amazing!"

He defeated a whole host of young cultivators. His crush said, "Is your master about to break through to the Great Ascension stage?"

He completed his Great Ascension training and took up weapon forging, alchemy, and formations as supplementary disciplines. His crush then said, "I heard the Sword Venerable of Sword Sect hasn't shown himself in a hundred years. Is he stronger than you?"

A friend asked in confusion, "Yunduan, why is your cultivation progressing so quickly? Does talent really determine how far you can go?"

Chu Yunduan sneered coldly. "No. You just need to have a crush who can't go three sentences without saying someone else is impressive."

That said, even if Chu Yunduan took first place in every competition in the cultivation world, constantly challenged powerful experts above his level, and got called a mad dog, he would never give Lin Yijue the chance to fall for someone else!
