Ancestral Home Secret Tome: Webnovel God and Planar Administrator

The ruins of the Xiao family ancestral home shimmered with a metallic luster under the moonlight. Xiao Feng's geological radar indicated an anomalous energy reaction thirty meters underground. He paused, his hand gripping the Luoyang shovel, and turned to look at Xiao Yan, who was busy scanning a QR code with his phone: "Are you sure this is our ancestral home from Earth? How could it overlap with the coordinates of the ancestral land on the Douqi Continent?"

"The scan results show that this place used to be the studio of a Qidian Chinese Network contracted author named 'Hun Tiandi V5'." Xiao Yan shook his phone, revealing a yellowed rental contract on the screen; the tenant's signature was clearly "Hun Dan." "Third Brother, do you remember that trope on Earth: 'When in doubt, use quantum mechanics'?"

The system prompt suddenly stuttered:

Ding! Spatial anchor detected. Parsing quantum-encrypted information left by Xiao Xuan...

The ground suddenly split open, revealing a spiral staircase extending downward, the steps formed from solidified virtual data like reader monthly tickets and subscription records. Xiao Feng's Emperor Scale glowed, illuminating the graffiti on the walls—all of which were reader comments from Battle Through the Heavens. One of them, written in blood-red font, read: "Hun Dan! Give me back the resurrection of Xiao Zhan!"

"It's the resentment of the readers..." Xiao Yan whispered. His fingertips touched a comment, and the corresponding plot modification record actually emerged. "Look, Hun Dan used the system to forcibly rewrite Xiao Zhan's death time, which is why Father experienced data corruption in the quantum cage."

At the end of the staircase was a basement filled with servers. On a central stone platform lay a skeleton dressed in Hanfu, clutching half of a Plane Management Manual. Xiao Feng's pupils constricted—that Hanfu was the exact attire Xiao Xuan wore when he attempted to ascend to Dou Di, and the object piercing the skeleton's chest was a contract from an Earth web novel platform!

Ding! Unlocked Xiao Xuan's hidden memory. Host has obtained 'Transmigrator Authorization'.

Memory fragment loading:

"I use my Emperor blood as a guide to lock the passage between Earth and the Douqi Continent. If future generations see this book, I hope you inform the 'Qidian Editorial Department': Do not let capital interfere with the plot, or the plane will surely collapse. —Xiao Xuan (Pen name: Wrath of the Flame Emperor)"

Xiao Yan looked up abruptly: "Third Brother! Hun Dan's true identity is..."

"He is a web novel god from Earth, and also a 'native transmigrator' of this plane." Xiao Feng took the manual and flipped to the yellowed signature page, where the party of the first part was clearly written as the "Douqi Continent Literary Universe Management Committee." "To maintain his novel's subscription data, he didn't hesitate to tamper with the rules of the world, even creating the Soul Clan Mechanical Legion just to increase the 'thrill factor'."

A system alarm blared, and the LED screen at the top of the basement suddenly lit up, broadcasting a real-time image of Hun Dan. The man was sitting in a leather swivel chair, dozens of screens arranged before him, monitoring the key plot nodes of the Douqi Continent:

"Xiao family, didn't expect this, did you? This plane is nothing more than a 'book world' I created, and you are all my 'characters'!" He munched on fried chicken, his greasy fingers tapping on the keyboard. "I originally wanted Xiao Yan to grow according to the original route, but who knew you 'intruding characters' would cause so much trouble? Now the readers are all spamming 'Xiao Zhan must live,' which is affecting my subscription revenue!"

Xiao Feng activated Soul Movement Three Thousand, his soul power piercing into the opponent's sea of consciousness along the network cables, only to see "plot locks" composed of countless lines of code contracting: "You think you can win just by controlling the plot? Don't forget, the readers are the true gods!"

He pulled out the "Reader Monthly Ticket Generator" he had brought from Earth. The moment he pressed the button, countless golden monthly tickets pierced through the screen like missiles. Hun Dan shrieked and dodged, his fried chicken falling onto the keyboard and triggering a hidden program—the entire basement began to collapse, the servers spewing flames and displaying "Data Overload."

"Little Yan, grab the manual!" Xiao Feng dragged his brother toward the portal, but just as they were about to leave, he saw Xiao Xuan's skeleton suddenly turn into a stream of data, merging into Xiao Yan's Flame Emperor Mark. The system prompt carried an unprecedented solemnity:

Ding! Plane Administrator authority transfer complete. Hosts Xiao Feng and Xiao Yan are now joint administrators of the Douqi Continent.

Warning! Hun Dan has initiated the 'Rush Ending' program. All unresolved plot holes will turn into black holes and devour the world!

When they returned to the Xiao family, the martial arts arena had turned into a vortex of quantum turbulence. Gu Yuan's Griffin Legion was fighting monsters composed of "unexplained foreshadowing"—phantoms of Heavy Xuan Rulers that fired lasers, shards of Heavenly Flames that could split, and countless floating "?" symbols.

"These are... rushed ending settings!" Xiao Yan exclaimed, his Fire Lotus Rocket Launcher blasting apart a giant eye formed from "Unsolved Mysteries of Ancient Races." "Hun Dan intends to destroy the entire world using the readers' resentment!"

Xiao Feng opened the Plane Management Manual and flipped to the "Plot Hole Filling" section, where he saw the solution: "Need to overwrite rushed settings with 'logical plots.' Little Yan, remember the 'fan fiction' from Earth? We have to improvise the plot on the spot!"

He raised his hand to summon a holographic projection, dividing the Xiao family disciples into "Character Design Group," "Plot Group," and "Special Effects Group." Xiao Zhan led the Character Design Group to charge at the "OOC Character Monsters," using modified character biographies as weapons; Xiao Yan led the Plot Group to weave new subplots, using the "Douqi Horse" meme to tame the unicorns in the turbulence.

"System, redeem 'Logical Consistency Spray'!" Xiao Feng pressed the button, and silver mist enveloped the battlefield, filling in plot holes like "The Mystery of Xiao Zhan's Resurrection" and "Xun Er's Background." When the last "?" symbol was rewritten into a "!" the quantum turbulence finally subsided.

Hun Dan's virtual projection appeared in the center of the ruins, the fried chicken in his hand turning into code fragments: "You think you've won? A novel without 'thrill factors' is destined to flop; the readers will abandon you!"

Xiao Feng chuckled and opened the Earth web novel platform, displaying the newly created column Xiao Family Revival Journal: "Look at this: 'Dual Transmigrators' Inter-Plane Hegemony,' 'The Collision of Technology and Douqi,' updating our adventures in real-time. The subscription count has already broken one hundred million, and the 'Alliance Leaders' who tipped us are all waiting to see how you lose."

Xiao Yan shook his phone; the live broadcast room was filled with comments like "Xiao Zhan is so handsome" and "Please give me Gu Yuan's WeChat": "By the way, do you know what 'Crowdfunding to Destroy Hun Dan' is? The readers pooled their money to buy us a 'Dimensional Folding Cannon,' just waiting for you to cause more trouble."

Hun Dan's face turned ashen, and he suddenly pointed to the sky. A giant "The End" sign appeared there, carrying an oppressive golden light: "Even if you can fill the plot holes, you can't change the ending! This is the 'Outline Lock' set when the contract was signed; no one can break it!"

Xiao Feng and Xiao Yan looked at each other and simultaneously pressed their hands onto the Plane Management Manual. The Emperor Scale and the Flame Emperor Fire erupted at the same time, burning two large holes into the "The End" sign, revealing the four small characters behind it: "To Be Continued."

"Who said it couldn't be broken?" Xiao Feng chuckled. The "Causality Modifier" in the system space turned into a fountain pen, scribbling across the outline at will. "From now on, we write the plot ourselves. The title of the next chapter is—"

The Two Emperors Meet in the Forbidden City: When a Dou Di Encounters a Lithography Machine.
