The Traditional Chinese Medicine Guide

[Content warning: The male lead is a seductive, scheming beauty with a deeply calculating nature. He is not a perfect character and will stop at nothing to achieve his goals. If that bothers you, don't read!] The abyss descends, alien species invade, and humanity struggles to survive within the abyss. Lu Li is an E-rank guide from the lowest rungs of society. Born into poverty and burdened with debt, he can only rely on unorthodox treatment methods, guiding sentinels above his rank in exchange for a meager chance at survival. An accident leads him to discover the secret of Su Meng, the saintly healer: a "System" from a higher civilization. But the System maliciously manipulates her, and she meets a tragic end. Fate gives him a chance to start over! This time, he'll seize the initiative, defy fate, and become the strongest guide in the Interstellar world! He plans every step, manipulates people's hearts, and makes use of every person and thing he can. In the underground city, he shows off his astonishing ancient Earth traditional Chinese medicine guidance techniques and makes a name for himself. He navigates among the major powers, plays the game of political intrigue, and climbs step by step to the pinnacle of power. But he never expects an even greater conspiracy to be waiting for him. Everyone, including himself, is merely a pawn of the "System." When the underground city launches a full-scale invasion of the human world, Lu Li chooses to cooperate with the "System." The "System" thinks Lu Li is its most despicable pawn, someone it can manipulate at will. It never expects... "You think I'm your pawn, but in truth, you're the only one who's my prey." Lu Li's lips curl into a cold smile, his eyes a bottomless abyss. This is a high-stakes gamble for survival, and a carefully planned revenge! Theme: Even in the direst circumstances, fight to survive and take control of your own fate!
