One car accident, and I’m transmigrated into a urban fantasy novel as the villain.

As long as I survive until the grand finale, I can return to the real world with hefty rewards.

But!

These stunning beauties don’t go to serve as the protagonist’s harem, they surround me every day.

Are they not satisfied with how slowly I’m dying?

Stop wearing stockings, stop wearing uniforms, what’s with all of you trying to seduce me?

Go find Long Aotian! Since destiny is in my hands, I might as well challenge the protagonist directly!

Who’s the protagonist, damn it, who knows!

This is the dogblood nonsensical chinese villain novel I was looking for. It's cliche but also not cliche, it's dumb but also not dumb. MC is inconsistently consistent or consistently inconsistent. You can't guess if author is trolling the MC or trolling you or trolling both at the same time. Which is great. And Xu Xuejiao I hate that devil goblin of a girl but I also can't help but love how ruthless she is. That said I am probably scoring this high because this type of novel is my... more>> jam.

Before you jump in know this (Because I know this is a make or break point for most people.) He does occasional ruthless things but MC is a softie. He is a nice person. He tries to be merciless but can't help but empathize with people. So far this is not the type of novel where MC becomes immediately op after sleeping with heroines and starts domineering og protagonist. He survives through advanced bullshittery and luck.

Spoiler

I dropped the story around ~700 chapters because it started to lose steam. But I am still giving it a 5 star. This story has a brilliant excuse for why would our protag wouldn't sleep with the heroines. Because OG protag gets upgraded by the power of green hats. Whenever MC sleeps with an OG heroine Long Aotian gets a power upgrade. So MC does his damnedest to keep heroines pure. And of course he fails.

Read ahead in raws. This IMO deserve five star but due some annoyance I decided to bring it down to 4.5. Let's start with the beginning:

Premise: the story is about the MC, a poor food delivery guy who get abducted from our world to the world of urban chinese novels. He is tasked to survive as the novel villain until the end of the novel and in return he will be rewarded with real world wealth once he return to his own world. The MC who has a sick mother... more>> at home, motivated to get the clearance reward to cure his sick mother and this motivation stick through even in all the happening in the story. Before the beginning of the novel, the MC already travelled to six different novel worlds and died in his first day in most of the worlds (third day at his sixth). The story opened when he arrives at the seventh world. The MC who already get the gist of how the novel world works immediately get to working in his survival.

Pro:

-The MC is very aggressive person who get everything done and doesn't left any misunderstanding stand (advocate of communication).

-The plot is entartaining as it doesn't really follow template story.

-The main cast all have compelling characterization.

-The dynamic between characters is really fun to follow.

-It doesn't have peanut gallery that bog down the chapters.

Con:

-Some of the heroines can get really annoying (Xu xuejiao, I'm looking at you).

-The author is really h**ny with his characters description which is my main complain as it get really annoying and drag down the story much.

-The humor can fell flat and old. <<less

Hilarious (for some but certainly not for all) !

While the story sets out as an apparently typical (and recently fashionable) 'heroines fall for the villain after hearing his thoughts' webnovel, this novel is really part of an older tradition of absurdist comedy in a martial arts setting. By this we mean a story where the basic narrative episodes are absurdist comedies with the basic scenarios (three-way stand-offs, unreasonable violent seniors etc) coming straight from the martial arts genre. On a deeper level the novel appears to be addressing a classic... more>> martial arts theme, one that was repeatedly studied by Gu Long: how can you be a good man (and the emphasis is certainly on man rather than woman) when you are surrounded by powers that cannot be controlled.

Spoiler

As of chapter ~1300 the novel has raised three archetypal answers in the form of three central characters, each regarded as a 'son-of-destiny': Lu Chengwen, Long Aotian, and Zhao Ritian. Lu Chengwen, the protagonist of the story, is a poor worker who has transmigrated into a rich second-generation villain in an urban-stallion novel. As the most complex figure we shall discuss the way he addresses the theme after the other two. Long Aotian is the main antagonist-cum-unwilling-ally of Lu Chengwen and, as suggested by his name, is the protagonist of the original story. His role chapter-by-chapter, especially in the early stages, is to be the bu*t of jokes as his ascent to dominance in the city is scuppered by the machinations of Lu Chengwen as well as sheer bad fortune. Despite the repeated comedic blows dealt to Long Aotian, the essence of his character remains the same throughout the story: ruthless, Long Aotian has a megalomaniac conviction that his own benefit is the benefit of the world at large, and those that stand in his way can only regret that they stand in the way of destiny. The basic prototype is Cao Cao, the paradigmatic figure of greatness in the era of China's economic development under capitalist reforms (say 1990s to the 2010s). Nonetheless Long Aotian has developed over the course of the story: like most stallion protagonists, Long Aotian at the start has a superficial pride and a pettiness that makes him incapable of swallowing a loss. Through his competition with Lu Chengwen, Long Aotian develops a certain sophistication, an ability to bend and stretch, that makes him a more realistic and dangerous figure than he starts out. With this Long Aotian represents perhaps the mainstream ideal of heroism in present day China.

Zhao Ritian, on the other hand, represents an earlier ideal of heroism: with a certain purity and simplicity (Zhao Ritian grew up in the mountains), Zhao Ritian is the urban intellectuals' fantasy of the greatness of the peasantry. Superficially this mode of heroism is outdated and can only be laughed at, and indeed the day-to-day role of Zhao Ritian is indeed to play the court jester. The sting in the tail is that the more urbane figures laughing at Zhao Ritian nearly all end up in equally absurd situations and perhaps they fail to realise that for all their self-satisfied 'sophistication' the joke is really on them...

Lu Chengwen represents a different ideal. In principle, as a rich second-generation businessman, he should represent the hegemon to Long Aotian's tyrant. Interests define cooperation, and leadership is won on the basis of a willing surrender of powers by others in the light of greater benefits expected as a result of this surrender. Face is utterly inconsequential. There is however a certain bloodlessness to such a character and as such this represents only one facet of Lu Chengwen. Here the transmigrated poor man background lends 'plausibility' to Lu Chengwen's weaknesses as a businessman-hero: his concern with basic moral standards, his lack of ruthlessness to opponents, his guilt about his infidelity and his inability to reject new heroines. His involvement in the martial arts world forces him to develop a ruthlessness that he originally lacks and in this way we see at least superficially a convergence towards the ideal represented by Long Aotian. The essence remains distinct however with Lu Chengwen still lacking the decisiveness of character of a real hero, his sacrifices often inspired by an inability to deal with guilt than a real sense of necessity. Nonetheless his style and his commitment to a bottom line in his actions make him a more attractive figure than either Long Aotian or Zhao Ritian, or the hypocrites in the martial arts world who talk of heroism while promoting their own interests. This combination makes him perhaps the deepest protagonist of this kind of urban webnovel since Xu Tingsheng in Still, Wait for Me (which admittedly lacks the martial arts dimensiom).

The bread and butter of this webnovel, however, is the comedy. Here readers should be warned: the style is absurdist, slapstick and extremely vulgar. Sometimes this descends into puerility and not every episode works. Scatological and dirty jokes abound. Post-adolescents will occasionally be embarrassed by the infantile jokes and adolescents are likely too young and smart to laugh at such outdated nonsense! At the same time, the book is occasionally uproariously funny, and those who like the humour can expect it aplenty.

The main weaknesses of the novel---bad jokes aside!---come from its adherence to certain Chinese urban novel paradigms. As described above these aspects (controlling a business empire, forming a harem etc) are somewhat secondary to both the fundamental theme of the story and the typical style, but they are a proportionally non-negligible part of the written text. The weakest aspect is the characterisation of the heroines, who are often simply cliches

(cold CEO goddess, tomboyish police beauty, sexy and deadly martial artist, childhood friend etc),

. It is only really the latter that has a prospect of serious emotional engagement with the protagonist and has certainly driven the major transitions in character and moral outlook undergone thus far (circa chapter ~1300. At this stage the female 'funny man' has largely been displaced by a similarly functioning central male character.)

All in all, this story addresses---quite seriously---a classic theme of martial arts novels in an outrageously funny manner, at least it you have the stomach for this kind of comedy! <<less

So far for me, it's been extremely funny. It's the usual heroine hears the villains inner voice, true thoughts, etc... Lu Chengwen never fails to make me laugh with his antics, and the heroines thoughts are quite funny too.

Spoiler

He tries to reason with the Protagonist whenever possible instead of provoking him but the heroines make sure to provoke him in his stead.

[collapse]

Spoiler

I think if there is one problem I have it's his mother and father (the original bodies not his) the father beats him often for no reason and neither the mother or father ever listen to what he has to say before accusing him of something. I don't think it's funny and for some reason he tends to just forget about HIS mother and instead calls these two his parents...I really don't get it. It's good that he cares for them and a very honorable thing to do but sometimes it seems a little weird to me.

[collapse]

Other than that though, a great story and excellent comedy. <<less

It's the usual.... For someone like me that has read this sort of trope for dozens of times already, there is just nothing noteworthy about it... It's the usual trope of trying to fail and then the heroines know this and that and they sabotage it... Again, the usual...

The protagonist and heroines are all insufferable and the "comedy" is mainly just toxic yelling about the plot being brain dead on an otherwise brain dead plot.. and then doubles down on those said tropes.. this isn't even a de-construction or satire... more>> or anything, it's really just a copy paste formula.

If you haven't read much of this trope, maybe you'd still be entertained before it gets stale due to the recycling, but if you already know the formula then it probably will kill half the fun for you, if not yawn while reading through. <<less

Quite the interesting story. The MC doesn't become as insufferable as the novel protag. His cheat doesn't make him OP right away. However, the female leads can get pretty annoying that it's not fun at all. Sadly, the translation did not do it justice. And being posted in Patreon of all sites just makes the reading experience a lot worse.
