They All Want to Be This Immortal Lord's Cultivation Furnace

Original title: The Short-Lived White Moonlight in a Dragon-Attacks-the-Heavens Novel [Updates paused. I'll post the whole thing all at once after it's finished. See the author's note at the end of the final chapter for details.] Sharp-tongued but soft-hearted sickly beauty receiver x six male suitors Yan Jiao, the top prodigy in the cultivation world, only discovered when he died that this world was a brainless harem power fantasy. The Dragon-Attacks-the-Heavens male lead, Zhou Jing, has countless beautiful followers and uses cauldrons to raise his cultivation, before finally ascending to immortality and ruling the world. And him? He's neither the second male lead nor a villain. He's just a cannon-fodder character who gets killed as soon as the male lead appears! Yan Jiao had been number one for two hundred years. How could he put up with that? Now that he's back from the dead, naturally he plans to kill the male lead, stop his ascension, take out some of the villains who harmed him in the past, make some money, raise his little sister, improve his swordsmanship, and then rise to the top and accomplish his great ambition. But the first step after his rebirth goes horribly wrong "You used dragon blood to remake your spiritual root. Once a month, you'll go into heat. You can either cultivate dual cultivation with someone physically, or do so in the spiritual realm. Choose one." Yan Jiao fell silent. It's fine. For the sake of killing the male lead and ascending, he'll endure it. But why are all the people he used to clash with getting jealous and fighting over him? They're all competing to cultivate with him. Weren't they sworn enemies? Didn't they swear to break off all ties and never see each other again? Didn't they supposedly lose their memories and completely forget him? Yan Jiao pressed his fingers to his brow, unable to figure out what had gone wrong. It wasn't until the master who had once imprisoned him by force also timidly begged to join the dual cultivation that Yan Jiao gave up thinking altogether. The love of all under heaven has nothing to do with me. I'll live as I please, following my own path to the very end, free and easy. [Bonus scene: Yan Jiao's birthday banquet] Fu Rong: "I've decided to give my protective scale to my precious little Yuli as a gift today!" Chu Yonggui lounged in a rocking chair, waving his fan. "Why does Lord Ceyang keep giving things nobody wants?" Fu Rong: "What right does a toad who turned himself into a cauldron and came knocking have to talk? Have some shame." They glared at each other, ready to fight. Gongliang Lu stood in the corner holding a wooden doll. In a wooden voice, he said, "I wonder if Jiao Jiao will like the doll I made. I even sewed it a beautiful immortal's robe. You two seniors, do you think he'll like it?" "..." The two men exchanged glances, then each drew his life-bound magic weapon and charged toward the doll in Gongliang Lu's arms. Their target was clear, and a huge battle was about to begin. "Don't copy those young people," Quan Xun said, drinking tea by the window of the bamboo house. "Son, you and I should stand together." Quan Zhao glared at his old man. "You old coot, you snuck into my master's bed last night. Don't think I didn't know!" Quan Xun smiled. "The strong get the spoils. You still have a lot to learn." As soon as he finished speaking, the three men outside stopped in the middle of their fight. Fu Rong frowned. "Wait, where did he go?" At the same time, inside the house. A handsome man dressed in white was blindfolded, his arms and legs bound by immortal-binding chains. He said hoarsely, "Yusheng, can you take off my blindfold for me?" The stunningly beautiful young man in red sat behind the desk, the corners of his lips curling slightly. Mottled, brilliant light and shadow fell across his lovely eyes and brows. "If you say one more word and disturb me, I'll throw you out." He enunciated each word slowly: "Dog of a master." Reading guide: 1. Not 1v1, not 1v1, not 1v1. 2.

Answer: Let's play rock-paper-scissors to decide who dies first. After transmigrating to ancient times, Xie Xun gets a Loyal Minister System. He has to impeach one person every month to meet his KPI. Xie Xun: Are you kidding? I never insult anyone! The next day, he nervously attends court and starts looking for a victim to impeach. He scans the crowded court, where every official looks fierce and impossible to mess with... Wait, is that a familiar face in the middle? Taking a closer look, Xie Xun is surprised. This Hanlin Academician, who supposedly just joined the Grand Secretariat, looks exactly like his best buddy, the guy he grew up sharing the same pair of pants with! After court, he immediately finds a chance to test him. Xie Xun: "Lord Huo, last night I observed the stars and saw several lines of text floating across the sky: KFC Crazy Thursday, send me 50. Do you have any thoughts on that?" Huo Zhao: "..." The Grand Secretariat minister says nothing, and Xie Xun heads home, dejected. But in the middle of the night, just as he is getting drowsy, the window suddenly opens and a dark figure jumps inside. Xie Xun wonders why a lowly censor like him would have an enemy trying to assassinate him, and quickly crawls under the bed. But as soon as he gets in, someone grabs his ankle and drags him out. The moonlight illuminates the face of the Grand Secretariat minister from earlier that day. "I brought you roast chicken. Come out and eat." Xie Xun: "???" After talking it over, Xie Xun finally understands. He and his good buddy transmigrated together. He got the Loyal Minister System, while his buddy got the Powerful Minister System. Each of them has a fixed monthly KPI to complete. As fellow countrymen, their eyes fill with tears when they meet, and Xie Xun and Huo Zhao agree to help each other finish their missions. So by day, they act like enemies: Xie Xun impeaches Huo Zhao, and Huo Zhao warns him. By night, they act like buddies, secretly drinking together, watching the moon, and sharing a bed. An official praises him behind his back: "Lord Xie is so brave! He impeaches Huo Zhao every month and still manages to get away unscathed. He's a model for all of us censors!" Xie Xun, warming his feet against his good buddy's chest: "...Me?" Xie Xun resolves to finish their missions with his good buddy and return home together. But later, he discovers a huge problem: one of the requirements in Huo Zhao's Powerful Minister System is to start a family and establish a career. Xie Xun: "What should we do? Are you going to get married?" Huo Zhao is holding him close for warmth, his face buried against Xie Xun's neck. He speaks in a muffled voice: "I can't finish the mission if I don't get married. Think of something for me." Xie Xun thinks it over. "I heard Lord Wang's third daughter next door really likes you. How about, Ow! Why are you pinching my waist?" Huo Zhao: "I know who I'm going to marry. You can shut up now." Xie Xun: "Who?" Huo Zhao doesn't answer, so Xie Xun waits, full of curiosity, to meet the woman he loves. Until their wedding night Xie Xun sits in the bridal sedan chair, dressed in wedding robes. Xie Xun: ? Reading guide: ① 1v1, both are virgins, with the seme carrying a one-sided crush for years.
