Raising Little Ones in a Fantasy Immortal Game

[Where's my outline?! Why did I keep it in my head? A year later, I've forgotten it all!]

[The cover still has my old pen name. I'm too lazy to change it.]

[Wait, let me think of my outline.]

Jiang Li: If I've committed a crime, let the law punish me. Don't make me transmigrate into a xianxia game, only to be surrounded by the children I raised and then "abandoned" after starting things with them.

Someone save me! SOS!

Heaven knows Jiang Li isn't a scumbag. He used to think the kids were just game data! And he treated them well, too!

The game just had its limits. He could only raise the kids until they came of age, then he had to "abandon" them and let them venture out on their own.

Sob, how is that his fault? It's clearly the game's fault.

Three Lives Stone is a xianxia game with a wide variety of gameplay. Some players focus on combat, others on daily life. Some are obsessed with swordsmanship, while others specialize in cooking. Some even grab a hoe and take up farming.

Players like Jiang Li are few and far between. He's obsessed with raising kids...

Normally, each player can only have one account. To open a new one, you have to reach the pinnacle of some field, which lets you create a new secret identity. But there's a limit of three... Yes, he took raising kids to the pinnacle.

His first kid became the Human Emperor.

His second kid became the Pill Saint.

His third kid became...

Watching the adorable little kids on his computer screen grow up and make a name for themselves, Jiang Li, their doting dad, was moved to tears. Just then, a notification appeared.

[Congratulations on being the first player to clear the game.]

Jiang Li: "Clear the game? I think Three Lives Stone really does have an ending... You have to max out the paths chosen by all three of your secret identities."

[You have received an invitation to the Three Lives Stone 2 beta test. This is a one-of-a-kind opportunity, available nowhere else in the world and non-transferable. The game will use all-new virtual reality holographic technology.]

Jiang Li's eyes lit up. Giao! Virtual reality? Holograms? For real?

Once inside the game, he kept raising kids.

Even though he was only a mortal, he wasn't afraid in the least. The inventories of his four accounts were linked, and he could switch between them whenever he wanted! This was amazing!

This time, the kid was special. His character profile said he was the Child of the Curse, an incarnation of malice who would bring darkness to the world. It couldn't get more chuuni than that.

This kid's AI is way too good, isn't it? He's just like a real person!

Wow, I can actually get hungry! Wow, I can taste things! Wow, my stomach can hurt! Wow, I even have to use the bathroom... Huh?

Isn't this game a little too realistic?

Wait!

Can someone tell me why the Human Emperor has the same name as my first kid?

Can someone tell me why the medicine bottles at the auction house are engraved with my name?

Tsk... Why can't he find the game's exit button?
