Reborn, I achieved legendary status with a single book.

Chapter 235 Author, could you please stop being so pretentious? (Please subscribe)
"Great God of Smiles, give me a smile."

"Can you be more serious?"

"You seem so serious."

"Am I not being proper? Why are you touching me?"

"You said it yourself, except for that thing, everything else is fine."

"But you can't just touch me like that. Stop...where did you touch me?"

Back in Aurora, everything became much calmer.

Chen Yang?

Continue attending his classes.

In addition, he would tease Li Hanxiao during class.

of course.

Another important task is to update the sword.

"How many people have added the new book to their collections?"

"800."

"Pfft..."

Li Hanxiao couldn't help but laugh out loud: "The number one online novelist, Bu Yangshen, has actually flopped with his new book."

"Falling down is normal, it's good for your health."

Looking at the data.

Chen Yang remained calm.

He never considered the sword to be a pounce.

It's just that the data isn't performing very well right now.

As for the reason.

Too normal.

While "Sword Comes" is well-written, the opening plot is overly complex.

Almost every chapter sets the stage, without really developing the protagonist's story in much detail.

most.

It's about making everyone feel that the protagonist has a good character.

However, this style of writing is not popular with fast-paced online novels that constantly push the main plot forward.

This is especially true for book lovers who prefer a fast pace.

Aside from the writing style, the novel "Sword Comes" had no redeeming qualities at first glance.

But how do you describe writing style?

Do you guys specifically look at the writing style when reading novels?

If you can't write a good story, no matter how good your writing is, no one will read it.

Therefore, Jian Lai's initial stats won't be particularly good.
However, although it wasn't particularly good, the beginning of Sword Arrives wasn't without its merits.

First and foremost, the character portrayals are excellent.

Besides the protagonist Chen Ping'an, the character development of the rest of the characters has been highly praised by many readers.

among them.

The character Qi Jingchun, in particular, has been met with great acclaim from some readers.

"Qi Jingchun, that's a good name."

"Not only are the names good, but the characters are also written even better. This is the model for us scholars."

"I like Qi Jingchun, and I read the whole book just because of this character."

The amount of online literature is simply enormous.

Although Sword Arrives may not be particularly attractive to a large number of readers for the time being.

However, some more patient and experienced book lovers still managed to discover this special book among countless others.

The data doesn't look good.

Some readers even offered Chen Yang advice in the book review section.

"Author, is this your first time writing a web novel? I know your writing is very good, but please don't leave too much foreshadowing at the beginning. Get the protagonist moving first, and tell more of their story. Then, while telling the protagonist's story, you can gradually explain the background."

"Yes, yes, that's what I thought too. The beginning was a dizzying array of characters, and the town felt like a huge background. There were also some foreshadowing elements and some of the characters' lines that left us completely confused and frustrated. I know you're setting things up, but this kind of setup is driving people away."

"Author, do you have a group? I love your novel so much. But it still has quite a few flaws, and I'd like to discuss them with you."

Ok.

Chen Yang did not create a book club group.

"Sorry, there is no book club at the moment. I have seen everyone's opinions. I am very grateful for everyone's suggestions, but there is no other way. The outline is set too broadly, and sometimes it is necessary to lay out the foreshadowing first. Otherwise, the later parts will be much less interesting."

Chen Yang explained to the group of book lovers.

of course.

This was revised by Chen Yang.

If it were written exactly as Feng Huo did in his previous life, that would truly drive people away.

To know.

In his previous life, Chen Yang read the book "Sword Comes" seven times, starting from the beginning, and only after reading hundreds of thousands of words did he finally understand its true meaning.

But even so.

He can support hundreds of thousands of words.

This was also because many readers kept explaining it to each other in the comments section of this chapter.

The new book is now available.

Apart from Chen Yang, who knew the background of these stories, all the readers in this world were also completely baffled.

But that's just how writing a book is.

Chen Yang can't give away any spoilers.

……

"Brothers, I'd like to recommend a book to everyone, 'Sword Comes'."

"Sword Comes," which great author wrote it?

"Not a master, but a newcomer. I feel that he writes very well and has the potential to become a master."

"Potential to become a top author? Forget it. If you can become a top author just by reading one book, then there are too many top authors on Qidian. I saw this book a few days ago when I was flipping through books. It's so pretentious. I read the first chapter, but I really couldn't get through it. Do you have any good recommendations?"

"Brother, you have to be patient. Some books just require patience to read."

"You know you need patience, but how many people who read online novels have that kind of patience? If everyone had that kind of patience, they'd be reading traditional classic literature. Online novels are all about being exciting, original, and fast-paced. So, what does 'Sword Comes' have?"

"Uh……"

Ok.

A reader on SkyNet recommended the novel "Sword Comes" and was met with a barrage of criticism.

However, despite this.

This book lover still recommends it to many people.

The reason.

The reason is that this book lover is a seasoned bookworm.

For a seasoned bookworm like him, he has read far too many online novels.

He reads many innovative, fast-paced, and exciting novels.

But he also enjoys watching works that are unconventional, don't follow popular trends, and are created according to their own ideas.

These works may not be the most popular, but they are the most stylish and inspired.

He felt that "Sword Comes" was such a work.

The author of Sword Comes is such a talented author.

He is not bound by the conventions of traditional online novels, nor does he follow any of the methods or writing styles of others.

He just did things his own way.

You say you want me to do something, but I'll do it differently.

such.

The stories he wrote down were the most moving and the ones that truly impressed him.

Just like the female character Zhi Gui in the book.

She is a dragon.

Originally, the protagonist, Chen Ping'an, was the one who saved her.

She initially became Chen Ping'an's maid.

But later, Zhi Gui discovered that Chen Ping'an had pitifully little luck, and following him would not only lead to no future, but he himself might not even be able to grow.

to this end.

Zhi Gui left Chen Ping'an and followed a young man with unparalleled dragon energy.

If such a plot were placed in other novels, countless authors and readers would probably immediately find various ways to refute Zhi Gui's claims.

but.

It's not in this book.

Young Chen Ping'an didn't think much of Zhi Gui either.

He actually felt that Zhigui had her reasons for doing so.

After all, I was far too poor to live with them.

It's not just about being poor.

At that time, Chen Ping'an was still very young and could not even support himself, let alone take care of a maid.

This book lover greatly admires this way of dealing with people and things.

This world isn't just about the main character.

For countless supporting characters, they are actually the protagonists of this world.

They have their own thoughts and don't always revolve around the protagonist.

Even if.

Some people did things that were unfair to the main character.

In the real world, isn't this perfectly normal?
Are we really going to beat and kill those people just because of this one thing?

or.

If you were Zhigui, what would you do?
of course.

The sword attracted him for much more than just these reasons.

……

"Chen Yang, what if your new book really flops?"

"What can I do? Even if it flops, I have to finish writing this book."

"And then what?"

"Then write another one."

"Then your true form will not rise to godhood and will never be able to return."

"If I can't come back, I can't come back. It just proves that I'm not capable enough."

"I give up. You have some good ideas, but some things just make you seem like an idiot."

Li Hanxiao couldn't do anything about Chen Yang: "But, this is good too. If the book isn't popular, not so many people will urge you to update. Hahaha, come on, you can be my photographer from now on."

"Okay, okay, people with the surname Chen are generally very good at photography."

"What?"

Li Hanxiao was taken aback, then immediately understood: "You, you, you... those photos, did you see them?"

"No."

"I would never believe it, even if you killed me."

"Have you seen it?"

"No no……"

Li Hanxiao shook her head frantically: "Why are you talking about me? We're going to shoot a video, yes, shoot a video. I'm a top videographer on Tudou.com. If you help me out today, you'll get plenty of benefits in the future."

"Okay. I've noted down the benefits you mentioned."

With a DV camera in hand, Chen Yang became Li Hanxiao's photographer.

……

of course.

As the chapters of "Sword Comes" continue to be serialized.

The story of Sword Comes is gradually being introduced to readers.

original.

The background of this world begins more than three thousand years ago when an extraordinary immortal appeared in the world.

He first cultivated diligently in a blessed land, attaining enlightenment. Then, he traveled the world alone, sword in hand, his sword gleaming with unwavering power. For some reason, he was incompatible with dragons. For three hundred years, he slew dragons wherever they appeared, killing all true dragons until none remained in the world. Then, his whereabouts became unknown. Some say he went to a place of profound Daoist origin, discussing the Dao with the Dao Ancestor; others say he went to the distant Western Pure Land, debating the scriptures with the Buddha; still others say he personally guarded the gates of the underworld, Fengdu, preventing demons and monsters from wreaking havoc on the human realm…

This is certainly not the background of the entire book.

This is just the backdrop of the small town.

Even the backdrop of this small town is magnificent.

A group of book lovers saw this.

In context, they finally experienced a feeling that had never appeared in any of the works before.

"This author is amazing. This small town with only a few thousand people actually hides such a story."

"That dragon-slaying immortal is quite the hero."

"Is Zhigui a dragon?"

"Yes, Zhigui should be the transformation of the last true dragon in the world."

at this time.

Countless comments kept appearing in the comment section.

"Let me explain. The reason why so many people with great fortune, great opportunities, and great talents have emerged from this town over the past three thousand years is that the town possesses the fortune of all the true dragons in the world."

"Yes, it's because of the dragon's fortune that countless talents have emerged from this town. Not only has the town produced countless outstanding figures, but also because of the dragon's fortune, opportunities abound everywhere in the town. For example, that golden carp, that four-legged lizard, and even that carved wooden dragon—all of them could be found if you just add the eye."

"There's also Ruan Xiu's fire dragon, and a loach."

"In addition, the reason why people from various sects and forces came to the town before was actually to seek opportunities."

"Is there anything else? Is there anything else? What kind of fortuitous encounters does the protagonist have?"

"No, the protagonist doesn't have any special opportunities. In fact, every opportunity that comes his way will eventually be snatched away by others."

"Holy crap, why is this happening?"

"My birth year porcelain".

What is "natal porcelain"?

"We'll have to go back and take a closer look."

Ok.

Actually, all of this has been explained before.

but.

Because the previous explanations were foreshadowed, no one was aware of the details.

So even if many people see it, they forget about it.

At this moment, the background unfolds.

The group of people then went back to read it again.

"I'll watch it again from the beginning."

"Hmm, it seems this book needs to be read many times to be truly interesting."

"I'll take another look to see if I've missed anything."

Many book lovers who enjoyed this book started from the first chapter again.

This look.

One by one, readers uncovered a series of foreshadowing elements from the past.

"I seem to understand."

"This natal porcelain is a gambling scheme devised by various immortal sects to select young people with exceptional talent. Through the natal porcelain, they can ascertain the aptitude and potential of these young people. Then, they will send someone to take them as disciples or take them away. Chen Ping'an's parents accidentally learned of this and did not want Chen Ping'an to be controlled by these sects."

So his parents smashed Chen Ping'an's natal porcelain. From then on, all the opportunities in the town would be related to him, but all those opportunities would also leave him.

"That's why Zhigui found Chen Ping'an first, but then left him."

"Yes, that's why Chen Ping'an could have bought the goldfish and carp, but someone else snatched them away. There was also a small loach, which Chen Ping'an caught and gave to Gu Can."

"It seems that the old locust tree in the village is also a great opportunity."

"Holy crap, holy crap, holy crap, holy crap, holy crap..."

See here.

The book lovers were horrified.

"I admire the author's plot; I am utterly impressed."

"This is the largest, most ingenious, and most attractive work I have ever seen."

"Don't say that so early."

"Ah, isn't it?"

"What I mean is that this plan is not over yet. Perhaps what we are seeing is just the tip of the iceberg."

"But this book only seems to have 1 favorites. The data doesn't do justice to such an ingenious layout."

"There's no way around it; the opening setup is too elaborate, which affects many readers' enjoyment. But such a good book will definitely not be buried."

"Hmm, this kind of layout. I dare say, even if the top authors from Qidian came, they wouldn't be able to do it any better."
