The Indolent Slayer

They feared a warlord.

They summoned a legend.

What they got… was a nap.



In the sleepy village of Zhenbei, Gao Mingyu has one ambition: doing absolutely nothing. Nicknamed Fat Master Ming, he is a round-bellied hermit of snacks, snoozes, and sarcastic wisdom. But beneath the soft exterior, thick glasses, and unmatched laziness lies a secret—he is the last wielder of the long-lost Slumbering Tiger System, a mysterious cultivation path powered by rest, food, and sheer indifference.



He once saved a province. Not that he remembers.



But when celestial cranes block out the sun and an icy beauty from the Cloudborne Sect, Li Xuan, descends demanding aid against a world-ending threat, Mingyu’s peaceful life under the plum tree collapses faster than his bamboo mat during snack time.



The seal on his arm awakens. The heavens stir. The System whispers. And the realms watch as the Indolent Slayer, a man too lazy to court the women he admires, is called to battle demons, ancient conspiracies, and his greatest enemy: effort.



With the sharp-tongued Li Xuan by his side (and possibly in his heart), Mingyu is forced into a world of spiraling sect drama, legendary monsters, and sleeping dragons—literally. But the true question remains:



Can a man who fights best in his dreams save the world… while still making it to lunch on time?
