The Transmigrated Cannon Fodder Overthrows the Male Protagonist

“Imperial Brother, I love you… You absolutely must remember that Lan Min loved you very, very much!” Zhou Min suddenly burst into tears because she used Lan Min’s love to ensnare Lan Ziyu. She tricked him into a cruel and solitary future where every second that passes and every breath that he takes will be untold pain.

She hoped he could love again after she was gone. If not, he would be trapped forever in a cold abyss, mourning hopelessly for her!

Lan Ziyu smiled with great happiness because he saw the sincerity of her feelings when she confessed to him. Their feelings were reciprocal!

During these dozen days, Lan Ziyu couldn’t have been happier. Zhou Min was gentle and affectionate and catered to his whims. Despite the situation at the borders growing ever more dangerous, every night, they lingered together until he reached the ultimate bliss. One day, Lan Ziyu received a letter from Prime Minister Yuan of the Lin kingdom. The content of the letter concerned his affair with his sister, backed up with the evidence the traitor Eunuch Tai had gathered.

The Lin kingdom was at a disadvantage in this war and had no choice but used blackmailing to break the situation. Unfortunately for them, they missed the timing. If it was before he made an oath to Zhou Min, he might have considered it, but since she wanted him to unify the world, he had the urge to speed up the process.

Prime Minister Yuan was treacherously greedy. He also dispatched a group of assassins at the same time. However, Lan Ziyu’s hidden guards were not to be underestimated. Either way, Lan Ziyu went with the flow, acting according to the results expected by Prime Minister Yuan. He sent back a positive response to lower Prime Minister Yuan’s vigilance. At the right time, Lan Ziyu would strike back without warning. He will then capture at once the traitor Eunuch Tai and destroy the evidence of his incestuous relationship.

As Lan Ziyu guessed, Lin kingdom’ spies sent the news that he was “gravely” injured from the attempt assassination and the demands were accepted. Therefore, Prime Minister Yuan set up a meeting on top of Snowy Cauldron Mountain to discuss the armistice and agree on a peace treaty.

While Lan Ziyu was negotiating, he took care to put Zhou Min in a safe place. 484 kept Zhou Min up to date with the situation, so even without going out, she still knew what was going on.

As Lan Ziyu wished, Zhou Min stayed obediently in a secured tent arranged by him beforehand.

“484, how is the progress of the energy collection?”

“Host, you have worked hard the past few days. Although you have not reached 100%, 93% is a good number. It is enough for us to leave this world and transfer to another one!”

“Will everything conclude tomorrow?”

“Yes, as long as you can safeguard the male lead, the Lan clan’s legacy will go on without falling into ruins. At the same time, Lan Min’s greatest wish will be fulfilled and you will receive the corresponding reward!”

“Alright!”

Meanwhile, Prime Minister Yuan was oblivious to the trap that Lan Ziyu had baited him into. He was busy planning with Eunuch Tai how to lead 100 archers and ambushed Lan Ziyu on top of Snowy Cauldron Mountain tomorrow. In his heart, he was rejoicing in the sweet dream of conquest.

In the meantime, Lan Ziyu was clearing the mountain, slaying the archers prepared by Prime Minister Yuan. He looked at each of his men, the cream of the crop of his troops, beheading the archers. The corner of his mouth rose into a nefarious and murderous smile. He suddenly missed his sister. However, in order to fulfill his promises, he already left for three days.

Then, tomorrow came. When Prime Minister Yuan arrived at the meeting place with Eunuch Tai, he saw Lan Ziyu standing alone near a cliff. The wind whistled through his clothes, making his sleeve dance in the wind. Lan Ziyu turned back when he heard them arrive. His gaze swept Prime Minister Yuan and Eunuch Tai.

“Your Majesty is very early!” Prime Minister Yuan let out a laugh.

“We have what you want. Now, we want the man. When are you going to give him to us?” Lan Ziyu went straight to the point.

“Oh? Unfortunately, this minister has changed his mind. The illustrious emperor of the Lan empire had a scandalous affair with his imperial little sister. I am curious if your people knew about it?”

“Yuan Zixu, you dare threaten us?!”

“Hahaha! At first, I didn’t believe Eunuch Tai when he told me about your crazy behavior, but when I saw you alone here, I finally believe it. Lan Ziyu, you are nothing but a mere mortal man!”

“Humph! Yuan Zixu, we also thought you have the ability. However, we are left greatly disappointed!” He had a calm demeanor as he played around with a whistle made of bone.

The cool-headed Yuan Zixu underwent a change when he saw the whistle in Lan Ziyu’s hands. “You! How did you get it? You-” Yuan Zixu didn’t dare to think further. He took out an identical whistle and blew it. Unfortunately, the ambush he expected never happened. He looked back at Lan Ziyu with an unbelievable expression.

“You-! You set me up!”

Lan Ziyu burst into a laugh. “Wrong. Everything has been planned all along. The mantis preys on the cicada, unaware of the oriole behind. You think you are the oriole, in fact, you are just a mantis jumping around… Men, take it away!”

As soon as he ordered, ten soldiers rushed out and pounced on Yuan Zixu and Eunuch Tai. Yuan Zixu had concealed himself deeply. No one knew he was in fact well versed in martial arts. As soon as they tried to reach him, he dodged away from two pairs of hands. His expression was crazy and paranoid.

“Lan Ziyu!”

He bellowed, and his strength burst out. Before anyone could react, he shot multiple poisoned darts similar to petals scattered by the celestial fairies in legends toward Lan Ziyu. Unable to evade, Lan Ziyu stood still and raised his arms to defend his vitals. He knew there would be unexpected variables. However, nothing had prepared him for this. He suddenly felt a warm body throwing itself at him and hugged him tightly. The familiar warmth and fragrance which usually filled him craving and gentleness had become synonymous with fear.

He didn’t dare look at her. However, her voice sounded near him. It was coquettish with a hint of blame. “Imperial Brother, it’s the sixth time you leave me. I haven’t seen you for three days… Brother… R-remember… your promise… I… wish…”

Zhou Min’s body fell. At the same time, she heard 484. “Mission complete! Next world, The Campus’ Trampled Cinderella. Be prepared for the transfer… 3 – 2 – 1!”

Then, she heard a mechanical sound.

Ding!
