With Han Chu trying to kill him every other day, Jiao Yu fights back with everything he has, time and again. When Han Chu goes out into the world to gain experience, Jiao Yu disguises himself and approaches him, trying to find a chance to kill him in one blow. But... Han Chu's golden finger is ridiculously powerful. Jiao Yu just can't kill him! Jiao Yu is frantic. How are you supposed to play this game?! Even stranger, during the days he spends adventuring with Han Chu, Han Chu's gaze toward him quietly begins to change...

Wait! Isn't something wrong with how this story is going?! While out in the world gaining experience, Han Chu saves a swordsman named Wang Qing. For some reason, Wang Qing seems familiar to him, but he can't remember who he is. As they spend day after day together and fight side by side, Han Chu's sense of familiarity grows stronger. Then one day, Wang Qing risks his life to protect Han Chu, leaving his spiritual essence gravely wounded. At last, Han Chu's suspicions are confirmed. Wang Qing is Jiao Yu in disguise! Burning with rage, Han Chu immediately reaches for his sword, ready to kill Jiao Yu. But when his gaze falls on Jiao Yu's pale face, drained by his grievous spiritual injury, Han Chu's heart suddenly trembles. No matter how hard he tries, he can't bring himself to swing his sword... Bonus scene: Question: Jiao Yu, why did you save Han Chu? Jiao Yu, exasperated: If I said it was an accident, would you believe me? Han Chu, deeply moved: I don't believe you. You must love me so much! Jiao Yu: ... Cultivation ranks: Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Spirit Transformation, Void Refinement, Body Integration, Great Ascension, and Tribulation Transcendence! These are traditional cultivation ranks, but I've made up a mountain of details, so please don't flame me. Thanks! The Romance Hero Collector [Quick Transmigration] [One-on-one romance in every world. The shou is not a split fragment!] [At heart, this is still a sweet romance (serious face)] Yan Xiao dies in a car accident and unexpectedly encounters the Survival System. The Survival System says: In each story world, minor characters are driven by the plot to offend the male lead and die young. The Survival System gives him a mission: as long as he transmigrates into different parallel worlds and changes the fates of those minor characters who are destined to die early, he can earn eternal life once he completes the mission. Yan Xiao readily agrees. "Sure!" 1. Overbearing CEO arc: Rich playboy x powerful figure in both the legal and criminal worlds The original character is a rich playboy who spends his days partying with his cronies and neglecting his responsibilities. After Yan Xiao transmigrates into his body, he gives up his bad habits and starts a company. One day, he happens to save the injured male lead, an overbearing CEO. To thank him, the CEO invites him to dinner and proposes a business partnership. They get along so well over the meal that they feel as if they've found a kindred spirit after years apart. Then, one night at a banquet, Yan Xiao and the CEO end up sleeping together in a hotel bed. The System shrieks: "Host, if you sleep with the male lead, you're definitely going to die!" Yan Xiao reassures the System: "It's fine. At worst, we'll both go down together." Who could have guessed that the CEO wouldn't try to destroy him, but would instead sleep with him again and again? Note: The gong is younger. They are five years apart. 2. Sword-wielding wuxia arc: Blind manor lord x chivalrous hero The original character is the decisive and ruthless lord of Yufeng Manor.

Out of gratitude, the hero agrees to stay and serve Yan Xiao for three years. But when the three years are up, the hero discovers that the person who destroyed his family all those years ago was none other than the manor lord standing before him. Overwhelmed with rage, the hero is torn between two choices. Should he let go of his hatred, or kill his enemy with his own hands? In the end, the hero kidnaps Yan Xiao and locks him up. The System shrieks: "Host, the male lead has lost his mind. You're done for!" Yan Xiao reassures the System: "It's fine. At worst, I'll start over." Who could have guessed that the hero wouldn't hurt Yan Xiao, but would instead put his hands all over him, straddle him, and do whatever he pleased? Note: The gong is older.
