From the Start, the White Snake Asked Me to Confer Her Title, and Every Demoness Came to Repay Me!

Office drone Chen Xi suddenly transmigrates into the body of a rich young master. All he wants is to lie flat and live like a carefree loafer, but he’s forced onto the path of the imperial examinations.

He plans to coast on his family’s wealth, but from the start, a thousand-year-old white snake appears and asks him to grant it a title.

“Ding! Divine Choice System activated!”

“The white snake seeks a title. Host, choose:”

“Choice One: Bestow the title of Dragon. Reward: Dragon-Snake Blood and Water-Commanding Spirit Pearl.”

“Choice Two: Bestow the title of Flood Dragon. Reward: Flood Dragon Scale Armor and Water-Repelling Art.”

“Choice Three: Bestow the title of Snake. You will be cursed.”

Chen Xi calls it a mighty dragon, and a divine thunderbolt strikes down from the heavens. He takes the proud white dragon along as his bodyguard.

White Su: I can never repay your great kindness, young master. I am willing to follow you for all eternity.

Later, in the capital, he saves Hu Ling'er, princess of the demon realm in Qingqiu Mountain, just as she is about to be thrown into a pot.

Hu Ling'er: You saved me from certain doom, young master. I shall devote my life to following you.

While out for a stroll, he casually picks up a young pheasant with true phoenix blood.

Phoenix Maiden: You raised me, young master. Naturally, I’ll follow you for the rest of my life.

…

Before he knows it, as Chen Xi places high in the imperial examinations and rises through the ranks, more and more demonesses come to his home to repay their debts of gratitude.

Meanwhile, a hundred nations vie for supremacy, the realm descends into chaos, and the people suffer.

Su Bai: The emperor is unworthy. Only you, young master, should rule the Great Qian.

Hu Ling'er: Young master, the demon race’s million-strong army is ready.

Phoenix Maiden: Young master, I’ve brought you the head of Xia Jiuyou, ruler of the Great Xia Kingdom.

Zi Ling: Young master, the hundred nations are united. The immortal dynasty’s great cause will endure forever.

…

Chen Xi: I mean, at the beginning, I really did want to lie flat…
