The Cunning Senior of the Protagonist - [Xianxia | Meta-Aware | Cannon Fodder Who Refuses to Die]

Gu He spent his previous life reading hundreds of web novels and remembers almost none of them. What stayed was instinct. And instinct is quietly, insistently telling him he is standing inside someone else's story. The famous peak. The peerless Master. The chosen disciple arriving right on schedule. He knows this shape. He knows what happens to the people standing nearby when a protagonist starts rising — and it is never good. So he is doing the only sensible thing: staying invisible, staying careful, and hoping the plot forgets he exists. The plot keeps finding him anyway. Weekly updates — 2,200+ words Reincarnated MC with a forgotten past and a very inconvenient instinct Named Disciple — not the chosen one, and he would like to keep it that way No Harem / No Female Lead Multiple POVs — the person trying hardest to avoid the story is already in it This novel is written slowly and on purpose — one chapter a week, every week, because consistency matters more than speed. If it is not for you, dropping it quietly is always a valid choice and no hard feelings. If you have genuine suggestions, Patreon and Discord are open (Links Below). What does not help anyone is a review written in frustration — it does not improve the story, and it takes something away from the readers who are here for exactly this kind of thing.
