  1. That protagonist really is just a thief and a dumbass, wtf. Bet the only reason people like him is bc they don’t know what he did. Would the male lead even like him if he knew he was being pursued by killers bc of him? (tho later he gets benefits I guess).

    Thanks for the new chapter!

  2. Oooh…. I hope there’s a likeable female character in this arc. Unfortunately, a lot of BLs lack those.

  3. A good female character in BL is always nice!

    Thanks for the chapter!

  4. Wouldn’t it be hilarious if the original zhao shuxuan actually never liked an si and only keep an si around because he is useful.

    The Devil King probably let them be because mingling with whiny morons is beneath him lol

  5. honestly every protagonist are just too much, what righteous? what pitiful? what kind? they are just doing things for their own benefits and isn’t or very aware of it

  6. Eugh. I dislike white lotuses the most. Especially the ones who are too delusional to think that anything can be justified as long as their intentions are right.

    * Press X to commit non – living

  7. Finally, someone came to express the sarcasm in my heart!!!!!

    THANK YOU VERY MUCH FOR ALL YOUR HARD WORK!!!

  8. I cant help but laughing my ass off! What kind of protagonist is thisssss LOL LOL, solving everything by crying and wailing, truly deserve an oscar for tragedy genre LOL

  9. Yeeeeesssss I am ready take my body. Mermans yay!. Sorry I’m just really happy not many have mermaid parts and such. Thank you for translating

  10. Oh my god, I couldn’t even finish reading the chapter before coming to complain:)) Excuse meeee, such a useless protagonist??? Like wtf??? I don’t even want to read what happen to our cutie Zhou xu after capturing the thief hmph. Bad review.

    Thanks for all the hard work ❤❤

  11. Honestly, with each new arc I’m more and more convinced that the stories he transmigrates into are complete bullshit. What villain? At most I would call his role a cannon-fodder. He does very little to the protagonist then gets an end that definitely doesn’t suit his crime. If the original stories were told from the protagonist’s POV, there would be no suspence, no real hardship shaping and showing the protagonist’s inner qualities, just almost effortless climbing from the bottom to the top by crashing everyone around. Definitely wouldn’t be interesting.

    On the other hand, the new version isn’t all that better… It’s just that the villains and cannon fodder are portrayed as more vile and more ‘deserving’ of their end, but there is not really any suspence or main character growth either. Perhaps the MC is a bit too OP, I would rather he was struggling a bit more to achieve his goals. Ah, well, who am I kidding? I totally read it for the interactions with the ML.

    😌

  12. The merman was called An Si. He was beautiful, delicate, kind-hearted and pure; he stole Zhou Xu’s revival pill to save a human he liked, Zhao Shuxuan.

    That sentenceruined it all.

    Anyway, I can endure all the stealing to save people, even though I’m angry that he never tried to compensate and undo his wrongs, but seriously, he stole a super important pill, from somebody he already stole a super important pill from without any compensation to save one human, but this time it’s for celebration??

    You could give him anything as a gift, something self-made would be so cute, yet you stole something? The heck? And when that person punishes you, you play victim, get an assassin to kill the person THEN EAT HIS FLESH??????

    If the previous stealings showed a lack of conscience and a criminally carefree attitude, the next step is just psycho!!

    • I’m sure there are other ways to heal someone. Bring him to a doctor, don’t steal!

      i’m increasingpy feeling that An Si thinks that since ZX doesn’t like him from the start, it’s fine to be bad to him.

  13. “An Si, the number one beauty of the southern ocean. Rumors have it that his heart is very pure and there is a long line of pursuers after him.“ oh.my.god. why are problems always caused by simps-

  14. The main story in this life is utterly ridiculous, indeed. They shouldn’t be called Protagonist at all lol. Zhou xu didn’t even do anything bad, he just want to take his revival pill back. They should be called anti-hero squad XDD

  15. I fvcking hate the white lotus type bish, really irritating aagghhhh just reading the story line make me annoyed so much.. white lotus type protagonist always bring disaster to other characters 😤
