The World-Destroying Madman Is Actually Me

Chong Chao is an utterly ordinary college student who lives in an old residential complex. His neighbors are warm and friendly. They bring him meals, pick up his packages, and give him rides to and from school without being asked... They are even happy to satisfy all his needs. Chong Chao is perfectly content with this warm, peaceful life, but he has no idea that the place where he lives is the city's most infamous haunted complex, filled with indescribable things. His neighbors seem gentle, kind, and frail, but every one of them could cause a human sensation if they ever went out into the world. Then one day, a group of strange people came rushing into the complex, one after another. They called him the [Celestial Bureau], saying he was the future world-ending boss. Some tried to kill him to save the world without a word of warning; Some tearfully begged to become his followers; And another group simply stopped to watch the commotion, then invited him to join them in creating a new world. Chong Chao slowly walked into the counseling room. "Doctor, I think I might have schizophrenia." In the 81st year of the Great Cataclysm, the world was destroyed by an anomalous entity codenamed the Celestial Bureau. In life, it had been called Chong Chao, a young man who claimed to have schizophrenia. No one knew what it was thinking. Every living thing that had ever encountered it had vanished into nothingness. Then one day, time flowed backward, and the world returned to its beginning. It was still the same smiling young man, living a peaceful life. The reborn all had bright eyes. They flocked to Chong Chao, eager to influence him. But Chong Chao merely turned back with a smile, standing among the indescribable neighbors filling the complex, and softly asked, "What a coincidence. Are you fellow patients too?" In his previous life, Zong Yingyu was humanity's strongest fighter. He died protecting humankind. As soon as he was reborn, he moved in beside Chong Chao, took care of his daily life, and delighted in satisfying all his needs. When someone asked him to take on the responsibility of saving the world again, he simply refused coldly. Zong Yingyu: "A follower will never betray their god." A devoted bottom who either thinks his own mental state is poor or believes everyone else's is, facing a brainless reborn man he must deal with quickly so he can go home and cook. An attacker who's more than meets the eye. Next up: my other disciple's story, I Get Rich by Going Crazy and Checking In by Yuan Xu. Visit my author page to find it. Blurb: A video asks: [If someone gave you 300,000 yuan to bang your head against a stone bollard in the middle of the road three times, would you agree?] This is Lin Deng's answer: Of course! Don't just ask, actually give me the money! After once again angrily tearing into another short video that asked questions without following through, the penniless Lin Deng transmigrated in the most cliched way. The bad news: He transmigrated into a melodramatic danmei novel as the foil to the beloved protagonist. The good news: Everything in the transmigration novel turned out to be true, and he was bound to a Check-In System. The bad news: The original host was just as penniless as he was. The good news: The System issued missions, and as long as he successfully checked in in front of characters from the story, he would get money. But there seemed to be something seriously wrong with this System's factory settings. All its missions were bizarre, including but not limited to: Doing a handstand and eating fried chicken in front of the doctor side character who's infatuated with the protagonist; Kneeling and kowtowing in front of the original story's protagonist, saying, "Please, I'm begging you, leave me alone. I'll never walk the same path as you again"; Trying to sell insurance to thin air in front of the original host's big brother, as he passes a haunted old mansion... At first, Lin Deng refused. He thought Earth was great, and he wasn't ready to flee to Mars out of social embarrassment. System: Each successful check-in earns you 500,000 yuan. All funds come from clean sources and are given as a gift. Lin Deng: What social embarrassment? This is clearly high art! I will always love performance art! Notes for readers: 1. The protagonist is the bottom, and the top is Zong Yingyu. My disciple is named Chong Chao, meaning "returning once more today". 2. This is a near-future fictional world with a touch of cosmic horror and some higher-dimensional elements. Some settings differ from reality, so don't apply them to real life. 3. My disciple, the protagonist, thinks differently from ordinary people because of his personal experiences. His actions do not represent my own preferences. 4. If you feel uncomfortable, fellow cultivators, make your escape immediately. 5. I may take leave if something comes up. 6. I'll say more if I think of anything. Theme: Accept yourself, affirm yourself, and live with your head held high.
