Max-Level Expert Pretends to Be a God [Quick Transmigration]

Upcoming novel: “Becoming an Emperor for the Ages Starts with Binding to a Fallen Kingdom System”

Yan Xuan transmigrated into the body of an ancient emperor. The place was impoverished and had absolutely nothing.

The System prompted him: “If you’re driven from the throne, you can take ten billion in cash back to the modern world. But you can’t tell anyone.”

Yan Xuan: “That kind of deal actually exists?”

“I don’t know how to rule, but surely it can’t be hard to get myself killed?”

It wasn’t hard to be a tyrant, but Yan Xuan was a fairly kind person and didn’t really want to hurt anyone. So he started looking for “other ways.”

“Didn’t the Sui Dynasty collapse because it built a canal? I’ll build one too!”

He waved a hand, and construction began.

But once the canal was finished, it irrigated farmland, revitalized trade between north and south, made the people rich, and strengthened the nation.

Everyone at court: Your Majesty is wise!

Yan Xuan: ?

“Then I’ll start a war. Surely picking a fight with the northern nomads can’t go wrong.”

Instead, his soldiers fought bravely, expanded the realm, and brought the surrounding nations to pay tribute. He was honored as the “Heavenly Khan.”

Yan Xuan broke down and summed up the lesson: he had failed because he managed too much and meddled too often.

“This time, I won’t do anything or manage anything. Surely that’ll bring the country to ruin?”

Instead, the nation recovered and grew ever more prosperous. Everyone praised him as “a sage emperor who rules through inaction.”

Yan Xuan: ...

Yan Xuan, who was determined to get himself killed, kept going further down the path to becoming an emperor for the ages.

--- The novel blurb begins here ---

Bai Chennian transmigrated with his game account! If he can earn 100 affection points from his target, he can cure his rare disease!

A series of character illustrations flashed before Bai Chennian’s eyes, showing handsome men and beautiful women.

The System: “You have to win these people over.”

Bai Chennian: “Got it. I’ll go make them all my underlings.”

The System: “? That’s not what I meant.”

The first target was Emperor Jingwen, acclaimed as an emperor for the ages.

A plague raged through the capital, and the people cried out in despair.

Bai Chennian mysteriously pulled a large red potion from his inventory and handed it out across the city.

Citizen A: “What kind of immortal elixir is this? It cures anything! Only an immortal could make such a miraculous elixir!”

Citizen B: “An immortal! Immortal Bai!”

Citizen C: “Waaaah, you saved my whole family! From now on, I, Wang Erhu, belong to Immortal Bai!”

Bai Chennian: Thank goodness I maxed out my life skills when I used to play. This is a huge win!

The emperor, his eyes brimming with tears, fell to his knees. “Immortal Bai, you saved the entire capital. You must have had a hard journey descending to the mortal world.”

The System: “You have to earn 100 affection points from the emperor.”

Bai Chennian: “Done.”

The System: “?”

Bai Chennian: “I’ve earned the emperor’s complete reverence. Isn’t that the highest level of affection?”

The System: “...That makes sense. Let me check. Oh my, the emperor’s affection is maxed out.”

The target in the second world was a tragic hero destined to take his own life!

System: “I suggest an angsty romance. Fall into a passionate love with the tragic hero, then make a glorious end together! Based on my calculations, that’s the easiest way to raise his affection.”

Bai Chennian: “???”

Bai Chennian: “I refuse.”

He found another way and established a faction of his own!

The tragic hero noticed a neighboring faction that was developing incredibly fast, so he decided to investigate.

He never expected to find advanced farm tools, land for everyone to cultivate, young and old alike, and people living in peace and prosperity. It was practically the utopia he had dreamed of!

So the tragic hero voluntarily submitted to Bai Chennian. “My lord, please accept me and my thirty thousand soldiers.”

Bai Chennian said to the System, “He’s so loyal to me that he’d give up his life for my sake. Does that count as maxed-out affection?”

The System covered its face. “...I suppose so.”

In the worlds that followed, one outstanding talent after another submitted to Bai Chennian. They respected and loved him, worshipped him, and were utterly loyal.

Bai Chennian asked, “Am I the most important person to you?”

The outstanding talents all nodded. “Yes. You are the sun that shines on us, the lighthouse in the night, the guiding star of dawn...”

The System was amazed. “I’ve been a romance System for years, and I’ve never seen anyone earn their targets’ affection like you do.”

Bai Chennian: “Thanks. People naturally admire the strong. As long as you’re strong enough, your targets will come to you on their own.”
