Hands Off the Retired God!

Blurb:

Yu Xiu rampaged through the infinite worlds, ruthlessly beating up the final bosses in every one.

In the end, he became the only person to clear them all and ascended to godhood.

After spending so long in such a cruel, uncaring place, the newly ascended god Yu Xiu longed for an ordinary, happy life.

So he decisively "retired," choosing to return to school and be an ordinary student: attend classes, join club activities, and observe his handsome but somewhat dim-witted roommate.

It was a pretty good life.

But his ordinary days were soon thrown into chaos.

While he was washing his hands, blood-red roses bloomed across the mirror, surrounding a horrifying skull in the middle. My god, I've finally found you!

While he was watering his succulents, their fleshy leaves suddenly grew into writhing tentacles. They made him a soft little heart, then wrapped themselves tightly around his body and professed their love.

After doing a good deed, the person he'd helped revealed a pair of fangs, hid him in a coffin lined with white flowers, and watered the flowers with his own blood, trying to hold a wedding with him in front of a crowd.

Yu Xingzhou: ...

The evil gods of the Cthulhu Realm, the King of Hell, the Demon King of the City of Ten Thousand Demons...

They were all final bosses he'd beaten in various worlds, and they'd tracked him down by his scent.

Now they were begging for their god's love.

And almost every time something strange happened, his handsome roommate would witness it.

Yu Xiu: ...Isn't this going to scare him out of his mind?

Instead, his roommate pulled him behind himself, his voice low and rich, filling Yu Xiu with a sense of security. "Whatever that is, get lost!"

Then he filled a cup with water and splashed it over the bloody skull, making it disappear.

Yu Xiu: ...It's pretty nice not having to deal with it myself.

.

A new roommate moved into Xiao Yejin's dorm: fair-skinned, beautiful, and long-legged.

The first time he saw him, Xiao Yejin's heart pounded wildly and his mouth filled with saliva...

Okay, he's a respectable guy. He didn't mean to feel this way!

His new roommate had a special constitution that kept attracting all kinds of inhuman, lustful creatures, each wanting to abduct him and make him their wife. The poor guy was scared out of his wits.

As his roommate, Xiao Yejin had to help him out.

But the other guy's eyes immediately changed when he looked at Xiao Yejin. Xiao Yejin knew he was devastatingly handsome. A few more times and the guy would fall for him on the spot, right?

One late night, Xiao Yejin noticed the bathroom light was on and got up to investigate.

He saw his roommate, who was afraid of ghosts, standing in front of the mirror, listening to a male ghost propose with a perfectly cold expression.

Before Xiao Yejin could go in, Yu Xiu yanked the ghost out of the mirror and threatened him in a low voice, eyes narrowed. "I let you off before because you could help create opportunities for me. But now I want to date someone. If you bother me again, I'll make sure you become a dead ghost."

Xiao Yejin instantly felt his whole body heating up. "So fierce. I love it!"

Upcoming novel: Two Alphas on a Survival Dating Show. Please add it to your reading list!

To capture the audience's attention, an interstellar entertainment company launched a unique dating show called Love While Escaping.

Three pairs of contestants will date on primitive, dangerous planets:

An ice-and-fire planet with extreme day-and-night temperature swings, an alien world teeming with ferocious insectoids, and a planet of uncivilized, violent aliens.

Audience: What the hell, is this a dating show? It's a survival show!

Then the production team dropped a bombshell: interstellar Alpha superstar Song Cheye would be joining the show, and the person paired with him romantically was... another alpha.

The whole internet exploded again.

Alpha pheromones repel each other, so how the hell are they supposed to date? They'd be lucky if they didn't start fighting!

The show attracted huge viewership, and when it aired, audiences saw exactly what they expected:

Normal couples: The little omegas huddled in their little alphas' arms for warmth, all cozy and full of love.

Those two Alphas: Strong and healthy, each doing their own thing...

Audience: I told you! No sparks! No pheromone clashes!

Normal couples: The little alphas carried the little omegas as they ran into the sunset, a huge swarm of insectoids chasing them. It was as romantic as a painting.

Those two Alphas: They bet on who could kill more bugs. With the sunset stained red with blood, they got caught up in the heat of battle and started fighting as their pheromones surged.

They didn't even notice the insectoids closing in. Song Cheye grabbed Qi Lin and flung him hard to the side. Before diving into the swarm, he held his fingers beneath his nose.

He stared at him and rasped, "Your pheromones smell pretty good."

Qi Lin's bone spines were slick with blood. He wiped the blood from his lips and stared back. "Come back out and fight me."

Their pheromones surged like a tide, wild and sensual.

Audience: ??? So ferocious, so powerful! Why is this kind of hot?

As the episodes aired one by one, the audience cheered: Aaaah! Two strong Alphas together are the best!

Later, during a livestream:

"Are you going to let me bite you?"

"Why won't you let me bite you? I'm an alpha too."

"Fine, we'll each take a bite."

Song Cheye nodded decisively. "All right, it's a deal. Come on."

Qi Lin finally caught on. "...?"

Audience: Aaaah!!!
