I Am the Source of Darkness, Causing Chaos in the Eternal Heavens

Chapter 33 I’m Just a Cannon Fodder, He’s a True Harem King

“And I’m just a minor character, only having a name, with barely any role, and even almost got taught a lesson by my brother’s fiancée after mocking her…”

“Luckily, my brother dotes on me. Because of these incidents, he had numerous conflicts with the story’s protagonist.”

“But the more I look at it, the more I feel like I’m just there to attract hatred for my brother, causing him trouble.”

Jiang Mingxian’s delicate face frowned as she delved into these memories, her interest piqued.

Upon seeing these events, she became both embarrassed and angry.

Why was she just a cannon fodder character?

Although her talent was slightly inferior to her brother Jiang Minghan’s, it wasn’t enough to be considered significantly worse.

Why should she be inferior to others?

She was unconvinced.

Moreover, in the story, the female protagonists were all exceptionally talented and had numerous opportunities. Although their backgrounds were not as prestigious, they eventually surpassed her by far.

The web novel was titled “I Want to Become Immortal” (completely made up, any resemblance to actual works is purely coincidental).

It described an era brimming with Tianjiao, with immortals vying for supremacy. A girl emerged from the distant lower realm, challenging the Dao and dominating the world to achieve immortality.

The female lead was invincible, slapping down various Tianjiao, gaining many comrades and obtaining divine opportunities, earning the admiration of many experts.

Due to the plot’s yuri undertones, even she developed admiration for the female lead by the end.

Reading this, Jiang Mingxian was dumbfounded, almost losing her composure.

What was this? All her life, she had only admired her brother.

And admiring another girl? Just the thought gave her goosebumps.

“Nonsense! Utter rubbish!”

“How could this be? This must be some supreme technique trying to confuse and alter my memories!”

“My brother would never fail! This is absolute nonsense; it’s impossible…”

“This must be fake!!”

In the story’s finale, her brother Jiang Minghan failed, being jointly defeated by the protagonist and all her comrades, his body and soul destroyed on the path to immortality.

As the most elaborated-on villain,

her brother was depicted as incredibly intelligent, with an appearance like an immortal, and terrifyingly talented, seen by the world as a gentle and scholarly supreme good person.

Even the female lead, before knowing his true intentions, had feelings for him, considering him a confidant.

Moreover, in the story, her brother Jiang Minghan did not break off the engagement with his now-crippled fiancée but showed her even more care and concern, displaying great magnanimity.

The powerful female lead, having obtained numerous divine artifacts, felt immense pressure when facing her brother, openly stating that he was someone she couldn’t see through at all.

If anyone were to oppose him, it would be the greatest horror and misfortune in the world.

Initially, Jiang Mingxian didn’t believe any of this.

To her, it seemed more like the whimsical means of some supreme existence.

Either related to fate or time, altering part of that soul’s memories through present tianji techniques.

The oldest ancestors of the hidden immortal clan Jiang family likely had such capabilities.

“But come to think of it, brother hasn’t broken off the engagement yet…”

“And his failure in the final battle was because of me. I dragged him down, ignoring his warnings and recklessly running to the protagonist’s camp.”

“The protagonist’s camp then informed my brother that I was captured and to save me, he had to come to the banquet. My brother, knowing it was a trap, still came, and naturally, he was ambushed and severely injured…”

“My brother still loves me as always.”

At this point, Jiang Mingxian started to have doubts.

However, seeing her character portrayed so brainlessly in the story, she couldn’t help but grind her teeth in frustration.

She was immensely talented; who could match her other than her brother?

From the transmigrator’s memory, she learned that this part of the plot was heavily criticized by readers, becoming a major flaw.

Her character was simply used to attract hatred, frequently offending the protagonist’s group, which was understandable.

But before the final battle, she completely lost her mind.

Her actions were entirely driven by the plot.

Moreover, her brother’s actions in that part of the plot were out of character.

The usual Jiang Minghan would have planned everything meticulously. He wouldn’t recklessly rush into a known trap.

Because of this, that part of the plot was heavily criticized.

But without that plot, the protagonist’s group had no chance against her brother.

So, the author, after much consideration, wrote it that way.

Later, her brother Jiang Minghan was even dubbed a “Harem King.”

Because while other villains were lenient, he was overly generous, making it impossible for the protagonist’s group to win otherwise.

Reading this part, Jiang Mingxian breathed a sigh of relief, happy that her brother’s image wasn’t ruined.

Such an unreasonable plot device was indeed unavoidable.

“The story ended poorly. The author had no choice but to quickly wrap up all the plot holes, even explaining my brother’s origin?”

“Hm?”

Jiang Mingxian suddenly paused.

Her brother’s origin?

Wasn’t he her brother, the young master of the hidden immortal clan Jiang family?

“Could there be another secret?”

She furrowed her brows again, delving back into the transmigrator’s memory and froze.

The story’s final scene depicted the female lead deducing the complete path to immortality, attempting to lead her sect to ascend.

During the ascension, she glimpsed a fragment of past time.

In a vast, mysterious world, a corner of the sky cracked open, and an immortal egg, interwoven with celestial light and radiance, fell…

The female lead watched, her face showing astonishment, then smiled gently, “Brother Jiang…”

…

“An immortal egg, could that be my brother?”

Jiang Mingxian had to question the story’s authenticity. If true, did it mean her brother wasn’t of the hidden immortal clan Jiang family?

What was that vast, mysterious world?

The Immortal Realm?

At this moment, she wished she could grab the original author and demand the rest of the story.

Clearly, many things were left unexplained, with only a few strokes, leaving a huge mystery.

“How frustrating! If the transmigrator’s memory is true, what should I do now?”

“But I’m clearly not as brainless as in the story…”

Jiang Mingxian’s delicate face was filled with worry and distress.

She felt she could only take it one step at a time since the detailed plot was from the female lead’s perspective.

Many details were unknown to her, only a general direction.

Moreover, the female lead was still in a lower realm, far from meeting her brother.

Meaning, anything happening in the three thousand Dao Domains now wasn’t covered in the story.

Even if she wanted to find some treasures or divine artifacts mentioned in the story, it would take a long time to locate and confirm their emergence.

And the three thousand Dao Domains were vast. She wasn’t sure if she could find them even with a rough direction.

The transmigrator’s memory was now like a chicken rib to Jiang Mingxian.
