I don't recommend waiting for this one anymore. I'll update it if I get the chance and inspiration, but who knows when that'll be.
This novel also went on hiatus for a year before. I started again at 60,000 words and wrote it all the way to 300,000. The story should need another 200,000 to 300,000 words to reach its end. I'm still reluctant to let it go, so I want to struggle on a little longer. I think I can finish it, but the timing may let everyone down.
If I truly can't keep writing, I'll unlock the chapters and refund everyone's tips. Unlocking only returns half, but message me on Weibo and I'll also refund the other half Jinjiang took. I'll also share the story outline and give this book an ending.
Don't come here because of my new novel! If you want to read, just try the first arc in the free chapters.
An abusive father, a mother who died young, and a broken boy.
Xie Yuan, a B-king who clawed his way up through life on hard mode, made it big. The first thing he did was seek revenge on his stepfather, newly released from prison.
Then the entire world was suddenly dragged into a horror movie game...
Higher-dimensional beings invade, gods descend, everyone receives a blessing, and every person gains an ability.
But the divine blessing Xie Yuan randomly receives is [Saving the Cannon Fodder].
Xie Yuan points at his own face. "I look like this, and I still have to be cannon fodder?"
System: [A vain, brainless beauty cannon fodder is still cannon fodder.]
"..."
The essence of being cannon fodder is courting death, and Xie Yuan's System missions are to survive every death flag and... fight for the spotlight.
Now I get it. The essence of the cannon fodder System is turning other people into cannon fodder!
*
Xie Yuan is focused on earning enough points in the horror movie world, carefully clearing each level and narrowly escaping death at every death flag. But he ends up forming an alliance with a teammate who has an invincible System, is a typical overpowered hero, and is hopelessly love-brained.
◎ Arc One: A beautiful but blood-soaked cult village.
Love-brained teammate, who has turned a horror movie into an agricultural program: My dream is to live with you in this beautiful village, where the villagers have faith, the people work hard, and everyone rises with the sun and rests at sunset.
Xie Yuan looks at the sacrificial offerings made of body parts scattered across the ground, and the so-called god stuck together in a mass.
...We must have some serious misunderstanding between us.
◎ Arc N: The strange lifeforms of the Storybook Kingdom.
Facing the hardest arc in history, where the entire population consists of strange lifeforms, his love-brained but incredibly lucky teammate gets:
[Emperor Skill: Speak and it becomes law. Play one card a day to command the whole nation.]
Xie Yuan, the cannon-fodder minister, is secretly delighted. This is a sure thing! Your Majesty, use your power of life and death to make the aliens kill each other!
But the card the love-brained emperor plays on the very first day is... Lust.
", I want to indulge in lust with you."
Xie Yuan: ...?

(PS: Those titles belong to just two people, so one bed is enough.)
1. A fussy career woman, cool and queenly beauty bottom vs. a half-dead, unhinged, love-brained, green-tea top.
2. The top isn't a split fragment, NPC, or BOSS. He's love-brained. Infinite flow (x), dating (yes).
4. An unconventional infinite-flow story with past and present lives, rivals-to-lovers, and more.
A coming-soon title:
※ Reborn: The Dark Moonlight Master
(Both leads are reborn.)
Xie Ting, the most beautiful person in the immortal realm, is a self-important, two-faced hypocrite. After his disciple Chu Yuan, whom he once bullied and humiliated, takes revenge and torments him to death, he is reborn.
The rebirth System tells him that he is actually the villainous cannon fodder in the male-oriented novel Dragon Soars in the Abyss, and that the disciple who killed him, Chu Yuan, is the fated male lead.
Xie Ting is so furious that his whisk falls apart, his hair bun goes crooked, and he can barely stay seated in his armchair!
Damn it, I'm not the protagonist!
In the original story, Xie Ting was the long-awaited target of the readers' face-slapping, the person the male lead worked so hard to avenge himself against. After Xie Ting died, subscriptions plummeted, and the protagonist Chu Yuan even failed to ascend and fell into the demonic path.
Xie Ting figures he really didn't do his best in his last life. How did he manage to be only a minor cannon fodder? Reborn, he looks at the young Chu Yuan, the future child of Heaven's Will, and gives him a sinister smile.
★ Chu Yuan, whose entire family was killed in his previous life and who barely escaped, refuses to become his disciple this time?
☝Hold on. Xie Ting sweeps young Chu Yuan into his arms, showers him with concern, personally teaches him, and has him attend to his every need, all while secretly raising him so he can steal his body and spiritual roots 🤭.
★ The disciples of the neighboring peak beat and curse him, then scheme to push Chu Yuan off the Cliff of Severed Bonds?
☝Hold on. Xie Ting heroically saves him, deliberately plunging off the cliff with him, all while secretly stealing his fortuitous opportunity 😜
★ His senior brothers and sisters spread rumors that Chu Yuan is a toad lusting after a swan, daring to covet his master and secretly keep a portrait of him to defile?
☝Hold on. Xie Ting heroically steps in...
Xie Ting: ??? No, wait! 🧐
Xie Ting: I've played this scene before in my last life. But this foolish kid will cultivate the pure-yang technique in the future. If I take seven or eight hundred boudoir photos of him, won't I drain all his yang energy and ruin his cultivation?!
Kekeke, I, Xie Ting, truly am a genius!
Not long after, Xie Ting is pinned beneath this disciple, who takes everything from him. He pants softly, his back aching from being thoroughly ravaged every day. The other disciples feel sorry for him and want to eat Chu Yuan alive.
Hold on. Absorbing the cultivation of Heaven's chosen one is part of this venerable one's plan too.
**
Chu Yuan has suffered torment all his life. His only ray of light was a single glimpse of his master, a noble and beautiful man who saved him from the flames.
His master is the person who treats him best in the world, and also the person who treats him worst.
Even knowing his master is hypocritical, vicious, and spoiled, he still sees him as untouchable moonlight.
Bound by the shackles of the righteous path, he knows good and evil cannot coexist, so he restrains himself by Heaven's Will and cuts off all love. But after his master disappears, he falls completely into the demonic path.
When he opens his eyes again, he has been reborn, and his master is right before him once more.
I, Chu Yuan, swear that in this life I will be a stranger to him, with no ties between us ever again.
But
In this life, his master smiles at him as soon as they meet, and insists that he become his disciple! Not only does he pay attention to him, he has Chu Yuan wash his personal clothes and attend to him. He even risks his life to save him?
Impossible. This must all be fake! The demonic path is just trying to tempt me! That is, until he receives eight hundred boudoir photos of his master...
Chu Yuan, completely won over: Ah, being my master's little demonic-path dog is way better than being Heaven's chosen one.
Theme: Cherish life, and be confident and brave
After Xiaojiang confessed his love, Mr. Xie vomited but it was okay [dog head]
I felt that the writing was quite stiff at first, but the writing gradually got better as the chapters went on. But it's pretty good if it's the first time I've written something original, and it's also a type of writing that's easy to start high and go low. I hope it won't blow up later. Of course, if the article is shorter, you won't have this kind of problem, because it is easy to have various problems later such as the collapse of combat power, difficulty in recycling foreshadowing, and forgetting to set the book eating setting. There are a lot of Infinite Streams that are interrupted or stuck, and those that don't have updates are slow, but the slowness is okay [holding my chin]
Zhang Lin doesn't want it [bursts into tears] I thought the protagonist would always have this kind of idiot around him
Well, from another level, [Orange Candy] has eaten [Cai Dog]
If depression is a talent [dog head]
Hahahaha, I wish you 88 children in one birth
When I saw chapter 30, I ordered 100%. When I saw the teacher doubting my talent, I came to leave a message on the latest chapter. I liked the setting and story and wanted to continue reading. The teacher believed that I [starry eyes] but unfortunately I couldn't throw thunder because it's very expensive to buy points in the Apple store here (I'm not rich enough [crying]
I think I've seen this movie, I don't know if it's the same one, but I remember mainly the May Queen. I remember there was a person who jumped off a cliff and was beaten to death if he didn't fall to death.
Want to see the succubus (eye movement)
Hahahahaha what a rich experience [Caigou]
