Saving the World and Going Viral with a Cloud Farm in the Interstellar Apocalypse

Here’s a preview of my upcoming feel-good novel, Everyone Online Wants to Be Insulted! The Pretty, Universally Hated Anti-Oracle Goes Viral!

Qi Wu was a top-tier spirit-plant cultivator in the apocalypse. One moment, he was there; the next, he had transmigrated into a book and become the most notorious bottom-of-the-class student in the military academy’s plant cultivation department.

The climate here had deteriorated, and plants were scarce. Humans and their spirit forms were plagued by mental outbreaks.

Only spirit plants could ease their suffering.

The original owner, from a remote planet, couldn’t afford cultivation fees. Everything he planted died, and he was just one final exam away from expulsion.

Everyone was waiting to watch him pack his bags.

Then, on exam day...

While everyone else anxiously guarded a single seedling,

Qi Wu casually buried a seed.

Overnight, vines covered the cultivation room, laden with bright red spirit fruit that bent the branches beneath their weight.

The test results came in, and the whole room fell silent.

Instructor: “...What have you been hiding all this time?”

Qi Wu: “?”

Isn’t this something anyone can do?

At the same time, Qi Wu bonded with the [Cloudtop Farm].

He returned to the farming business he knew best.

So...

Cucumbers that beat the heat? Plant them!

Radishes that help insomniacs sleep soundly through the night? Plant them!

Hair-growing corn and beautifying pomegranates? Coming right up!

In the end, even the mental outbreaks that had left the entire interstellar world helpless were soothed by a single apple.

At first, everyone said: What kind of wild fruit is that? I’ve never heard of it.

Then: Wait, it really works? Send me ten boxes!

And later...

The military academy fought to place orders, celebrities booked theirs six months in advance, and people from other planets lined up to buy spirit seeds.

Those who had once waited for him to drop out could only watch as Qi Wu went from the bottom of the class to the hottest spirit-plant cultivator at the military academy.

And every credit he earned went right back into the Cloudtop Farm.

Expanding the fields, repairing the canals, and rescuing weather beasts.

Weather beasts that could bring rain, pollinate plants, control the temperature...

One by one, the dying creatures came back to life, lively as ever.

Then one day, people across the stars suddenly noticed...

The heat wave that had lasted for decades had eased.

Water flowed through the dried-up rivers again.

A first touch of green appeared on barren land.

The planet that every expert had declared doomed had been brought back to life, one plant at a time.

The entire interstellar world began searching for the mysterious savior who had restored the climate.

Qi Wu sat among the clouds with a weather beast in his arms, quietly munching on a tomato.

Didn’t see that coming, did you?

My farm is in the sky.

There was just one problem: the black dragon on the farm was acting stranger and stranger.

When Qi Wu went out to work the fields, the dragon used its claws to clear and sow the land.

When Qi Wu went to sleep, it slipped into his bed to be his cool pack.

When Qi Wu petted another fluffy creature, the dragon would immediately push its way into his arms with a cold expression, its tail wrapped tightly around his waist.

Qi Wu had always thought the black dragon was just clingy.

Until one day, he casually stroked its scales.

The black dragon froze for ages, the tips of its ears gradually turning red.

The next day,

Qi Wu stared at the enormous mating nest that had mysteriously appeared beside the farm. “?”

The black dragon blushed. “You were the one who courted me first.”

Qi Wu: “???”

A pretty, socially anxious troll who insults people × the Empire’s strongest, doting general

Shi Tingxue transmigrated into a book and became the malicious foil to a fake young master adored by everyone.

The original owner was the real young master, but he had a vile personality.

He was also a useless nobody without a spirit form.

In the end, his biological parents and older brother kicked him out, leaving him penniless on a garbage planet.

The newly transmigrated Shi Tingxue: “...”

What a disastrous start.

Luckily, he awakened an ability from his past life: [Reverse Oracle].

Call someone ugly, and they become radiant.

Curse someone with poverty, and they’ll strike it rich overnight.

He also unexpectedly awakened an SSS-rank spirit form.

But SSS-rank spirit forms cost a fortune to raise.

To support himself, the socially anxious Shi Tingxue put on a six-winged angel mask and started streaming anonymously.

The mask looked pure and beautiful, but the moment he opened his mouth, he was a foul-mouthed firebrand.

The only insult streamer on the entire internet.

/

At first, the comments in his livestream were:

[Why is the streamer randomly insulting people?]

[? Reported.]

Later:

[Wait! He called me ugly, and the birthmark on my face was gone the next day!]

[? Getting insulted by the streamer makes you better? Dad, hurry up and call me poor!]

After that, Shi Tingxue fought through his social anxiety and unleashed a stream of insults.

“The mecha you designed is junk. You’re going to come in last at tomorrow’s competition.”

The next day, a new mecha called Tingxue Plains burst onto the scene, and its unknown designer became a legend overnight.

“Having a mental outbreak? I suggest you book your cremation now.”

That night, the Imperial Marshal’s mental sea was healed. He broke through to SSS rank in one leap and begged to become Shi Tingxue’s godson.

“Still hoping to defeat the insectoid race? Buy a coffin and lie flat already.”

During an interstellar war, a meteor shower struck the insectoid race’s home planet. Humanity won a great victory, and the entire interstellar world erupted in celebration.

Mecha masters, the Imperial Marshal, and members of the royal family all became his die-hard fans.

His parents, two older brothers, and the fake young master who had once looked down on him knelt and begged him to insult them.

Shi Tingxue said solemnly, “May your whole family live a hundred years, grow rich, and enjoy one stroke of good luck after another.”

“Except me.”

That night, the Shi family went bankrupt, and the others became strays.

Shi Tingxue became famous across the interstellar world for his livestream insults, but in real life he was so socially anxious that he blushed just talking to people.

Especially when he was around a certain handsome general

Shi Tingxue’s ears turned red. “D-don’t come any closer... My back aches.”

The general raised an eyebrow. “Baby, you didn’t sound like that last night when you called me useless.”

Later, a streaming mishap caused Shi Tingxue’s mask to fall off.

The whole internet went crazy.

[Aaaah, what a contrast! The foul-mouthed troll is so beautiful and adorable!]

[Tingxue is so cute. Getting insulted by that face feels amazing, holy crap]

[Wife, insult me!!]

The next second, a dragon’s tail wrapped around his waist.

The Imperial General appeared behind him on camera, radiating possessiveness.

“Tingxue is mine.”

The Star Network crashed.

The entire interstellar world was furious.

[You bastard general! Give our Tingxue back!!]
