After Leaving Showbiz to Farm, I Became an Interstellar Top-Tier Star

[Main Story Complete] [Please add the upcoming novel The Fallen King Can Read Minds! to your collection]

Xun Yin came from the apocalypse. Carrying the "God-Tier Talent Development System," he transmigrated into a novel on Lyujiang and became the protagonist's foil: a useless pretty face who debuted on the strength of his stunning looks, had no professional skills, and was mocked by haters as a once-in-two-thousand-years waste of space.

After coasting for years, he finally completed the storyline and quietly terminated his contract before the protagonist conquered the entertainment industry.

Xun Yin happily bought a boat ticket, picked a remote planet suitable for farming, and prepared to start his retirement.

·

When the haters heard that some useless pretty face had been dropped by his agency and bought a ticket to settle on a remote planet, they celebrated.

They logged into the streaming site, eager to enjoy the pretty face's miserable new life, only to see him...

Brewing a pot of tea, embroidering in the morning, reading in the afternoon, and playing the qin at dusk.

Growing a patch of fruits and vegetables, keeping a yard full of little animals, and making a table of long-lost ancient Earth delicacies to enjoy by himself.

Haters: Tears of envy streamed from their mouths. Dad, do you need another son?

·

As the livestream went on, viewers discovered that this pretty face wasn't just skilled at music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and talented at everything from raising chickens to cooking. He could also beat ten space pirates to death in one sitting.

#Shocking! So the reason I can still post here with all my limbs intact after hating on Xun Yin for so long is that Xun Yin really loves me#

#Xun Yin, your fatherly love is as vast as a mountain!#

#Xun Yin said on a variety show, "Actually, I'm a kind person." The original poster who mocked him got their face slapped so hard it swelled!#

·

Only when experts, scholars, and great artists from far and wide all started heading to the remote star system to study under Xun Yin did he realize he'd boarded the wrong ship. The place where he'd settled wasn't an agricultural planet at all, but the infamous base of the Interstellar Expeditionary Force.

The vegetables he grew were alien plants, the chickens he raised were baby dinosaurs, and even the dog guarding his home was a disguise worn by a gigantic space beast.

When his fans learned the truth, they hurriedly tagged the Star Government, begging them to rescue their national idol. They were terrified the Expeditionary Force was mistreating him.

·

Xun Yin: This is hilarious. If you'd come one step later, I would have become the commander's wife!

Upcoming: The Fallen King Can Read Minds!

Yun Shuo had been on the throne for ten years, fighting off the powerful clans and ministers, and finally took personal control of the government at the age of sixteen.

On the very day he assumed control, Yun Shuo had an official who had publicly rebuked him dragged away and beaten with a staff.

As the punishment was carried out, he saw a speech bubble appear above the man's head: [Just hang in there. This dog emperor is going to be assassinated in three days!]

Yun Shuo: Eyes wide with shock!

After awakening the mind-reading skill, Yun Shuo discovered that there were many strange people lurking in the former court and the imperial harem.

Chief Eunuch: [If I embezzle another thirty thousand taels, I can regrow my missing parts and be reborn. Then I'll compete for dominion over the world and collect all the beauties under heaven!]

Yun Shuo confiscated his household, acquiring a hundred million taels of silver and one limb-regeneration medicine.

Seventh-Rank Official: [Hydrogen, helium, lithium, beryllium, boron; bicycles, steam engines, the Jenny spinning machine. Once I bring all these inventions to life, I'll have a place among the contenders in this chaotic age!]

Yun Shuo transferred him to work by his side, where he could copy his homework every day.

Imperial Concubine Candidate: [I have to find a way to avoid this short-lived emperor's favor, then meet the future founding emperor and use modern medicine to cure him, becoming the cinnabar mole in his heart! By the way, doesn't this short-lived emperor know the founding emperor isn't his real younger brother?]

Yun Shuo: "..."

He turned and went to see his younger brother, Prince Shou, whom he had raised himself and loved dearly.

Prince Shou had a speech bubble above his head, packed full of the words: [Love him love him love him love him love him...]

Note: Younger gong, a sweet puppy at home and a fierce wolfhound outside, × an astute and mighty shou who loves copying homework. Also known as How I Became a Wise Emperor by Copying the Homework of Transmigrators.

Theme: A happy life is won through the hard work of one's own hands.
