The Southern Liang Dynasty is destined to fall to the Northern Dynasty, and a cannon fodder character is destined to die. Jiang Xinyue transmigrated into a book and became a cannon fodder character, fated to be crushed to death while chopping wood, poisoned while drinking water, struck by lightning while walking, and crushed by a roof beam while sleeping.
These bizarre ways to die were all the wicked amusements of the Heavenly Dao, a bratty girl. She gave Jiang Xinyue a cannon fodder constitution that sent him back to the starting point whenever he died, just so she could enjoy watching him struggle through an endless cycle of life and death.
For the sake of living a long life, and, more importantly, teaching the Heavenly Dao a lesson (taking down that bratty girl!), Jiang Xinyue, after restarting a thousand times, realized the moment had come. From here on, he would never die again and would attain immortality.
But first, he had to deal with a few minor problems.
At some point, a noble-born heiress had started clinging to him and insisting on staying by his side, while his cold and aloof master refused to let him leave her for even a moment. His childhood sweetheart, now gone dark, kept thinking about tying him to the bed so they would never be apart.
Dear fairies, could you please stop crowding around me? I'm just a cannon fodder character. My hobby is staying alive and, while I'm at it, taking down the Heavenly Dao.
