Transmigration

Li Hao had a dream. In it, he was groggily clutching a stunning goddess and kissing her passionately.

"Bzz, bzz..."

"Smack! Damn mosquito." It was winter in Star City, for crying out loud. Why were the mosquitoes still so rampant?

With a slap, Li Hao came fully awake. He'd hit himself too hard, and it hurt.

Looking at the goddess beneath him, Li Hao was completely dumbfounded. This scene was exactly like the one in his dream. Had he done all this while half-asleep just now?

What was going on? He'd only gone out to get a foot massage. How had he ended up in this desolate wilderness?

And who was this gorgeous woman with the incredible figure, lying there in such a disheveled state? Why was he on top of her? And why wasn't she moving? Had he accidentally killed her after raping her?

Li Hao was twenty-two, a famous failed author on a certain tomato-themed writing site. He'd spent five years specializing in failure, written countless flops, and remained unbeaten.

Whether it was finally his lucky break or something else, one of his rejected novels had unexpectedly earned over a thousand yuan in a single day. Elated, Li Hao had decided to treat himself with all his savings.

After sharing some intimate moments with a young masseuse at a traditional Chinese medicine foot spa, Li Hao had accidentally fallen into a manhole on his way out. Then he'd been flushed into this strange world.

It was a tragic accident. At long last, one of his novels had started to take off, and now he'd have to stop updating it.

Li Hao slowly lifted the handkerchief covering the goddess's face. A breathtakingly beautiful face, bare of makeup, appeared before him.

"Boom!" A flood of memories surged up from the depths of his mind, leaving Li Hao dizzy and disoriented.

Yin Zhiping, a third-generation disciple of the Quanzhen Sect, a promising young man. His master was Qiu Chuji, and he was a leading candidate to become the next head of the Quanzhen Sect. That was who Li Hao was now.

He also learned about this world from the original owner's memories.

It was a wondrous world, full of great heroes and martial arts masters.

Southern Murong and Northern Qiao Feng; Guo Jing and Huang Rong, the great heroes defending Xiangyang; and famous forces like the Western Xia First-Rank Hall, Lingjiu Palace, and Yihua Palace...

If you could imagine it, this world had it. This was one enormous martial arts mash-up, bringing together the worlds created by Jin Yong, Gu Long, Wo Longsheng, and Liang Yusheng!

Li Hao remembered that Yin Zhiping had gone down the mountain with his senior brother, Zhao Zhijing, to take care of some business. Zhao Zhijing had sabotaged him, and he'd been drugged with an aphrodisiac. Unwilling to assault a village woman, he'd run off into the wilderness to take care of things himself, only to encounter Little Dragon Girl, whose acupoints had been sealed by Ouyang Feng. That was how the two of them had ended up sharing an indescribably wonderful experience.

How many childhood friends had gritted their teeth in hatred, wishing they could tear the Dragon Rider, Yin Zhiping, limb from limb? And now, by some cruel twist of fate, Li Hao had become the very person he'd hated most.

There was nothing wrong with transmigrating into Yin Zhiping, really. Riding a dragon had been his childhood dream. But why had he had to get handsy and pull the handkerchief off Little Dragon Girl's head?

Now Little Dragon Girl was staring fixedly at him, murder in her eyes. If looks could kill, Li Hao figured he'd already have been hacked to pieces and tortured to death.

"Miss Long, what if I told you this was a misunderstanding? Would you believe me?" Li Hao asked awkwardly.

"What's that look for? You don't believe me?"

"What's your attitude? Say something."

"Are you refusing to forgive me? If you won't forgive me, don't blame me for being ruthless." Li Hao spoke viciously.

Little Dragon Girl thought, If Ouyang Feng hadn't sealed my acupoints with his unique technique, you wouldn't have laid a finger on me.

"If you're not going to say anything, don't blame me for being impolite." Li Hao looked around at the desolate wilderness. A man and a woman alone together, passions flaring... maybe affection would grow with time.

"Pah!" Affection growing with time? Everyone in her circle was more powerful than he was. Once tonight was over, he'd have to flee for his life.

With nowhere else to turn, evil thoughts took hold of Li Hao. He wouldn't dare kill anyone, but he did dare violate a woman against her will. If he was going to be hunted either way, what was there to fear?

To hell with it!

"Ding! The system has detected that the host is wicked in thought and acting in violation of laws and regulations. The conditions for system binding have been met. Binding initiated."

"What the hell was that?" Li Hao, in the middle of having a good time, jumped at the unfamiliar voice.

"Supreme Villain System successfully bound. We hope the host will persevere and become the one and only great villain in the world."

A great villain? Screw you! I'm a good man from the twenty-first century!

Li Hao didn't have time to deal with this thing, whether it was a person or a ghost.

The sky was already getting bright. Ouyang Feng and Yang Guo would probably be back soon. He'd better get out of there.

After putting on the Taoist robe that marked him as a third-generation disciple of the Quanzhen Sect, Li Hao prepared to bolt. But after running a couple of steps, he turned back.

Little Dragon Girl was still lying on the ground. If Yang Guo came back, he'd see her completely exposed. Then Li Hao would be cuckolded.

Li Hao gently cleaned her up and helped her get dressed. Then he kissed her hard on the lips, left a hickey on her neck, and vanished into the distance under Little Dragon Girl's furious glare.

The world was vast. There were places everywhere for a man like him to hide.

Li Hao had inherited all of Yin Zhiping's martial arts, but his predecessor's skills were nothing to write home about. So he sneaked along, avoiding the main roads and taking only back paths toward Xiangyang.

"Ding! Supreme Villain System successfully bound. The system has detected that the host will soon suffer a bloody disaster. As a special bonus, a beginner's gift pack has been provided. Please check it yourself."

"Please persevere, host, and make your villainous career flourish."

"Brother, what exactly are you? Give me a straight answer. You should know, I'm a Taoist." Li Bai's words were an unmistakable threat.

I'm a Taoist, the bane of evil spirits. If you're some wandering ghost, get lost while you still can.

"This system is one of the 9,527 Supreme Villain System branches under the System Lord of the Divine Realm. I'm not some worthless nobody." The System Lord had 9,999 system branches. Coming in at 9,527, he really wasn't some worthless nobody.

"System, what's my cheat? You just said I got a beginner's gift pack." Li Hao froze.

He was a famous failed author on a certain tomato-themed writing site. He knew system stories inside and out.

"Please check it yourself. This system is only responsible for issuing missions and distributing rewards. Providing companionship is outside its scope of work."

"Open the beginner's gift pack." Damn, this system sprite was pretty arrogant. Still, from the way he talked, he sounded like a big deal.

"Congratulations, host, on successfully opening the beginner's gift pack. You received: Treading Snow Without a Trace (lightness skill; automatically reaches Grandmaster Level upon learning); Skillful Undressing (an essential skill for men); Attribute-less Inner Force: 10 years (automatically assimilated upon extraction); 999 doses of Mysterious Lust-Inducing Powder, 999 I Love a Firewood Stick, 999 Goddess Falls in Love with Me, 999 doses of Super Meng Han Powder..."
