Turns Out I Really Am The Protagonist

The world is filled with myriad sects, horrific demons, and rising heroes, but each only reigns for a few hundred years. This world had no protagonist; it was merely a cycle of one power replacing ...

Chapter One: The Mountain People

2020, South City, Dihao Building.

Li Sisui walked out of the building looking exhausted. He glanced at his phone; there were less than five minutes until tomorrow. Weibo said there would be a Quadrantid meteor shower tonight, but as a corporate slave, he had been working overtime until now. Sigh, so tiring.

After checking in, Li Si walked out with light steps, feeling a little excited about the upcoming meteor shower. Everyone said that making a wish on a meteor shower is the most effective, and he hoped to change his luck. He couldn't just be resentful of the rich all the time. He wished he could become rich overnight!

Whenever I think of him leaving the company after working hard overtime, I can't help but look up at the top floor of the Emperor Building. It's the most luxurious apartment in the south of the city, something that money can't buy. Why are some people born on the top floor, while others work hard their whole lives but are still at the bottom?

As Li Sisui stepped out of the building, he couldn't help but look up. The sky was filled with twinkling stars. The CEO's son must be up there enjoying some wine right now.

1982 Lafite?

He only knew about Lafite wine brands, which were said to be very expensive, and the 1982 vintage seemed to be even more expensive. Sometimes he even wondered how many bottles of wine were actually produced in 1982.

Hopefully he drank something expired, haha, Li Sisui was quite pleased with his own wicked sense of humor.

Just then, a burst of starlight suddenly burst forth in the sky—the Quadrantid meteor shower had begun!

Li Sisui suddenly looked up, his expression blank, gazing at the once-in-a-century beauty of the starry sky with rapt attention, silently making a wish in his heart:

"I just want to be the protagonist, stand at the center of the world, and experience what it's like to be at the pinnacle of life!"

Just as Li Sisui was immersed in his beautiful fantasy, the earth trembled, as if a ferocious beast was rampaging underground. This, this is an earthquake!

Li Sisui was stunned for a few seconds before he reacted, but the violent shaking still hadn't stopped. The hundred-story Emperor Building was also trembling in the earthquake. The violent shaking made it difficult for Li Sisui to move. He barely managed to lean against the wall, his hands covering his head, his heart filled with fear of death.

"Aaaaaah, is this an earthquake? It's terrifying! It's still shaking! Aaaaah, when will this end? Just destroy it already, I'm exhausted!"

The earth was still shaking. Li Sisui looked at the trembling world in front of him in horror. Out of the corner of his eye, he saw a gray cat suddenly rush out of the building. Then everything went black and he knew nothing more!

A black crack suddenly appeared behind Li Si, silently swallowing him up!

When Li Sisui woke up again, her consciousness gradually returned, and a voice kept ringing in her ears:

You are the protagonist! You are the protagonist! You are the protagonist!

Is it because something important needs to be said three times?

As his consciousness gradually returned, he felt as if tens of thousands of years had passed. A flood of complex information overwhelmed him, forcing him to accept the reality that he had actually transmigrated, and it was even a soul transmigration!

Knowing the truth, Li Sisui was not disappointed at all; on the contrary, he was a little excited. After all, he had lived a very tiring and stifling life in his previous life. Could it be that his wish on the shooting star had come true?

According to the usual transmigration conventions, the protagonist must get a notification after transmigrating, right? A sign-in system, a passive winning system, or a wishing system should all be provided. Even if there's no notification, it wouldn't be too much to ask for a heaven-defying cultivation technique, and a stunning immortal partner would also be acceptable. What's a meal if you can't eat it? Hehe!

After waiting for a long time, there was still no movement. At this moment, he was sitting cross-legged on the edge of the cliff, surrounded by clouds and mist, just like a fairyland on the top of the clouds. He was wearing a plain robe and was meditating.

"Alas, it seems that my grandmaster has failed to break through again this time. He has failed ninety-nine times now!"

"You'll get used to it! Who told them to be of a higher generation? No matter what, we have to wait on them!"

Li Sisui turned his head slightly stiffly and caught sight of two people standing not far away, coldly watching him. He looked away in a flustered manner, continuing his meditation posture, but inwardly he was overjoyed.

"Haha, looks like my wish came true. So what if I transmigrated? He's at least a grandmaster-level expert, his strength must be unfathomable! Wait, let me check my own cultivation level first. I've tried to break through ninety-nine times without success?"

Divine photo?

Holy crap, just looking at this name is awesome, it's so domineering, is this going to be invincible from the start?

Li Sixui, his heart pounding with excitement, his hands trembling, couldn't help but burst into laughter, appearing almost manic. The two people behind him also perked up and whispered among themselves:

"Grandmaster Uncle seems to be troubled by this defeat. His emotions are so unusual. Could he have become so angry that he suffered a qi deviation?"

"No, he's over two thousand years old. He's used to failing every few years. You're overthinking it!"

"..."

Li Sisui was in a great mood and couldn't help but glance at the two people behind him. He subconsciously wanted to see what their cultivation levels were so that he could make a comparison and have a better understanding of their situation.

After all, he had just transmigrated into this body, and he needed some time to digest the complex and intricate information in this body. Right now, he knew absolutely nothing about cultivation!

Huh?

He couldn't see through these two people. Could it be that their cultivation levels were even higher than his?

Although he had some doubts, he didn't think too much about it. After all, this world was still too unfamiliar to him, and everything needed to be planned carefully. However, Li Sisui was quite satisfied with his start. But as soon as he stood up, he felt dizzy and his vision went black. He lost his footing and fell off the cliff!

Oh!

Am I destined to become a transmigrator who falls to his death the moment he arrives? That doesn't make sense. But to be fair, it turns out that cultivators also experience leg numbness and insufficient blood supply to the brain after meditating for a long time?

I got a little too excited and jumped up too fast. Ugh, I got carried away!

Before he could even stretch out his posture in the air, with a thud, he crashed headfirst into a thick ball of feathers. The whistling wind beside his ears stopped abruptly. The soundproofing was so good that a major manufacturer exclaimed that it was top-notch!
