I am the villain in the book

Ahem, strictly speaking, according to the outline, the plot has only reached the halfway point of the third volume.

However, I got a bit carried away while writing, which led to the addition of some side stories that weren't originally in the outline, so I decided to split it into another volume here.

The third volume has already begun to touch upon some court disputes, and there are almost none of the traditional 'noob-friendly'爽 points (except for the poetry gathering section), so I don't know how everyone feels about reading it.

But I personally think it's still decent, at least it didn't collapse.

Then the fourth volume, "Iron Horses and Frozen Rivers Enter My Dreams," will be updated as usual tomorrow.

Hearing the name of this volume, everyone should know what the main content will be.

Oh, right, let me give you a little preview: a new female lead will appear in the fourth volume.

That's all I have to say!

Thank you to all the readers for your subscriptions, rewards, and comments!

Thank you to all the readers who are willing to read the failing novels written by a failing author like me!

Finally, I wish all the readers good health, students rapid academic progress, and working people rapidly increasing salaries!

May the epidemic pass soon, and may our motherland be prosperous and strong!

May everyone be like the cicada, even knowing their own insignificance, yet still daring to flap their wings and cry out to the heavens and earth!
