Different species wore identical sect robes and greeted one another as fellow cultivators, thawing relations between alien races and paving the way for diplomatic ties. Even the merfolk royals wanted to learn to ride flying swords with their tails, take to the skies, and become immortals to save all living beings! Only his own awful relatives, who were watching the shows too, were a tiny bit unhappy. "The villainous side characters have names suspiciously similar to ours. This is pure slander!" Then his aunt was exposed for bullying classmates, and his uncle was arrested for attending a sex party... They were exactly like the villains in the show! The audience was stunned. "The melodramatic drama about a rich family fighting over an inheritance that we've been watching has turned out to be real!" P.S. Three chapters a day before signing, six chapters a day afterward.
