Three Sentences to Make the Overlord Lose His Mind

Chang Sui travels through time with his phone into a newly serialized progression fantasy novel. Using his phone to follow the updates, he gains access to various information. Through the phone, he learns that the protagonist, Long Aotian, is a resilient genius—gentle in nature, not brainless, and fairly reasonable. Based on his years of reading experience, Chang Sui figures now is the time to latch onto Long Aotian’s coattails before his meteoric rise, so he can ascend to greatness alongside him once Long Aotian achieves immortality. The first half of the plan goes smoothly. But though he manages to cling to Long Aotian’s coattails, before achieving greatness, the two begin bickering incessantly over minor issues.

If he doesn’t perish, he’ll explode. Oh, you love getting scammed out of money and possessions? Love using others’ things to play the hero? Come on, let me show you how it’s done! After accidentally consuming a gender-changing herb, a furious Chang Sui hatches a terrible idea—and soon becomes the femme fatale in the novel’s comment section who leaves Long Aotian spellbound in just three sentences. **Underling A—Chang Sui:** *frantically clings to his secret identity*
