Summary

Ni Shikun, who accomplished nothing in his previous life, transmigrates into the boss of a private medical group in Chengdu with assets in the tens of billions. Just as he wants to enjoy life, typical protagonist-template figures keep appearing around him—the live-in son-in-law husband of a beautiful CEO, the super soldier king returning to the city, the carefree divine doctor coming down the mountain to break off an engagement—and he seems about to become the villain cannon fodder who gets slapped down. At the critical moment he activates the Destiny Villain System, completing tasks by plundering heroine luck and sabotaging protagonist plots to earn battle power points, luck points, skill cards, and the Eye of Detection. From then on he actively intervenes in the storylines of son-in-laws, soldier kings, and divine doctors, maneuvering among various forces while wooing heroines and expanding his business, rising to the peak on the villain's comeback road.

Editor's review

This is a standard villain-stream urban power fantasy whose selling point is the protagonist using his villain identity to turn the tables and slap down various protagonist templates; settings such as system stats, the Eye of Detection, and the Long-Lasting Love Card make the satisfaction direct. The opening transmigration and system activation move fast, suiting readers seeking light stress relief and fans of face-slapping and trope satire. The weaknesses are obvious: characters are somewhat flat, the plot is formulaic, and some readers report poor continuity and incomplete chapters, so those demanding strong writing and logic should be cautious.

Reading tips

  1. Treat it as stress-relief power fantasy and do not worry about the rigor of stats and battle power systems
  2. Note that chapter counts vary by platform; choose a complete version to avoid broken chapters
  3. If unfamiliar with the original son-in-law and soldier-king tropes, learn about those genres first to better appreciate the anti-trope fun
