I’m Carrying the Immortal Venerable’s Little Dragon Cub [Book Transmigration]

My column, My Life as the Chief Minister's Male Widow-Sister-in-Law, is now open. Welcome to read!

Blurb: Xi Chen transmigrated into a book.

He transmigrated into a BL cultivation novel about a beloved protagonist, but unfortunately, he didn't become the adored protagonist, who was the shou. Instead, he became the protagonist's foolish junior apprentice.

The word "foolish" here doesn't mean stupid. This junior apprentice was the kind of fool who actually drooled.

The only reason such a fool could become the protagonist's junior apprentice was that he had the same dual thunder-and-fire spiritual roots as the protagonist.

Because of his constitution, the protagonist couldn't form a golden core. His sect, which doted on him above all else, couldn't bear to watch his path to immortality become difficult, so they found him this little fool.

They used precious treasures of heaven and earth to nourish the fool, all so that once he formed a golden core, they could cut it out and give it to the protagonist.

By the time Xi Chen arrived, his golden core had already formed, and he had been placed under a restriction. If his core wasn't removed, he would die.

Of course, with the fool's body already in such a terrible state, he wouldn't live long even if they removed his core.

Since death was unavoidable either way, Xi Chen decided to give up trying. But if he couldn't survive, he certainly wasn't going to let anyone else have an easy time either :)

He destroyed his own golden core, set fire to the mountain, and stole and sold off the sect's magical treasures.

In his final days, he used the silver he got from selling them to live in drunken abandon. What a wonderful life!

Along the way, he also met an innocent young man named Xiao Hua.

Everyone knows what an innocent young man is like: pretty, but not very skilled. Still, Xi Chen had a thing for innocent young men.

Afterward, Xi Chen contentedly picked a place to wait for death. But a few days later, not only was he still alive, he was positively radiant.

He thought something was amiss and went to see a miracle-working doctor. The doctor told him, "Your meridians and spiritual roots have been remade, and... you're pregnant!"

Xi Chen: "..." He clearly remembered being a man!

Still reeling from the shock, he went home and brewed himself a bowl of abortion medicine. Just as he was about to drink it, a faint sob came from his belly: "Waaah... Daddy, don't abandon me! I'll be the very best little dragon!"

Xi Chen's hand shook, and the abortion medicine crashed to the floor.

Worse than a man getting pregnant was the fact that he wasn't carrying a human baby, but a dragon...

The dragon race was the most powerful in the entire cultivation world. Its members were born with heavenly-level cultivation, every one of them exceptionally beautiful and blessed with incredible luck. They were the darlings of heaven and earth.

But things were rarely perfect. Restrained by the Heavenly Dao, dragons had great difficulty reproducing, and not a single hatchling had been born in a thousand years.

There was only one dragon still active in the cultivation world: the legendary Nan Long Immortal Venerable, an aloof, arrogant, and violent man whom the entire cultivation world called a lunatic, and who had already lived for eighteen hundred years.

Xi Chen: "..." Help! What happened to the innocent eighteen-year-old young man?

Note: The protagonist has no intellectual disability. He only pretends to be foolish at the beginning of the story.

My Life as the Chief Minister's Male Widow-Sister-in-Law

In his fourth year as a food blogger, Jiang Huaiqing, a skilled cook, unexpectedly became an online sensation.

Just as he thought his hard times were finally over and he was about to make a fortune, he slipped and, in a stroke of bad luck, transmigrated into a book.

He transmigrated into a wish-fulfillment novel about a dragon-like hero's rise to power.

The dragon-like hero usually has a tragic backstory that turns him dark, and this book was no exception.

The male lead came from a wealthy family and was exceptionally gifted. He had been a promising young talent with a bright future, but someone plotted against him. Not only was he left with a lame leg, but his parents and elder brother also died in the scheme.

After losing his parents and elder brother, the male lead fell completely into darkness. To exact revenge, he dragged his lame leg, bled along the way, and gritted his teeth as he crawled his way into the imperial court.

Once darkened, the male lead was vicious and ruthless. In just ten years, he rose to the position of Chief Minister and gained power over the entire court.

Jiang Huaiqing figured that even if the male lead was a cripple, he was powerful and influential, and clearly very rich. It wouldn't be a bad deal if he really transmigrated as the male lead.

Unfortunately, he hadn't become the male lead. He had become the male lead's male widow-sister-in-law ╯□╰

Being forced to become a man who could bear children was one thing. The problem was that this male widow-sister-in-law was a wicked, doomed cannon fodder character!

As soon as the male widow-sister-in-law entered the family, the male lead's elder brother died. Seeing this, the widow-sister-in-law promptly took the family's last two taels of silver and ran away.

His actions led to the male lead's mother dying because she could not get treatment.

The male lead never forgave a grudge. Once he gained power, he immediately tracked down the widow-sister-in-law and had him torn apart by five horses.

Remembering the male widow-sister-in-law's bloody fate in the book, Jiang Huaiqing looked down at the pitiful male lead, still innocent-eyed as he sat in his wheelchair, and silently picked up his wok to start earning money for the family.

Hmph! Why go after two measly taels of silver when he could cling to such a powerful patron?

At this point, the male lead's mother was still alive. Having not yet lost all his family, the male lead was still just a somewhat haughty, pitiful young man who hadn't had the chance to turn dark.

Jiang Huaiqing had made up his mind: before the male lead turned dark, he would cling tightly to his golden thigh as his virtuous male widow-sister-in-law!

To make sure his golden thigh stayed secure, Jiang Huaiqing fussed over him and catered to his every need, treating his younger brother-in-law like his own son.

He didn't know if he'd made a mistake somewhere, but little by little, the pitiful male lead began looking at him more and more strangely.

Jiang Huaiqing thought the male lead had seen through his plan to cling to him, so he quickly made up an excuse about getting married and ran away. But before he got far, the male lead caught him and dragged him back.

The male lead, always so obedient in front of him, now had a sinister look on his face. He gently stroked Jiang Huaiqing's cheek and whispered dangerously in his ear, "Since Sister-in-law wants to marry, why not marry Chaojin? Or do you think Chaojin's lame leg is beneath you?"

???

Jiang Huaiqing was stunned. How could a pitiful young man like you have two completely different sides?

And I treat you like my son. How can you treat me like your wife!
