Synopsis:

Jiang Liu lost his father at the age of three. When he turned five, his mother decided to run away with another man. At the age of fourteen, he sent off the only relative he had, his grandfather, before carrying a small amount of property and stepping into the big dying tank called society.

He was stingy, selfish, and absolutely disgraceful. Except for breaking the law, he accumulated all the bad habits available to humankind. Yet, such a man, after an unexpected death, was bounded by a silicon-based creature called the Righteous Father's system. Since then, he started his magnificent career in the world system.

After several worlds went by.....

Righteous Father's system 001: [Shivering], I wonder if I still have time to change my host.

Impressions: Yay for non-BL worldhopping. I also like this kind of no fixed CP QTs~ 

So our MC dies and bounds with the Righteous Father System. I guess it's like a Holy Mother System if its a female Host XD Anyways, MC must become a 'Holy Father' while fulfilling the original's wish.

World 1: On the ultimate evolution of unquestioning filial piety (Chapter 1-20) - 80s-90s. Our MC becomes a foolishly filial son. His parents did not like him, working him like an ox for the whole family. His wife also followed him, being worked to the bone. MC's Holy Father mission is to get the 'goodwill' of his parents and his wife.

World 2: The man who loves to boast (Chapter 21-32) - Modern. MC becomes a braggart Dad who keeps bragging that he is rich and has built so many Hope Primary Schools. MC's mission is to really build the Hope Primary School he was bragging about XD 

World 3: The search for the second spring for one own's mother (Chapter 33-54) - Ancient times. MC becomes a child of a widow. MC's mission is to improve the status of women in ancient times. 

World 4: Good father (Chapter 55-66) - Modern. Trigger Warning: MC becomes the Dad of a rape victim. Luckily, he arrived early so he was able to his save his little daughter before the pedophile succeeded. MC's mission is to reform the scum and make him sincerely repent.

World 5: The self-cultivation of a national husband (Chapter 67-83) - Modern. MC becomes the son of the richest man. His mission is to make people realize that there is no shortcut in life.

World 6: Acrobats (Chapter 84-96) - MC becomes an old Master of bone-shrinking arts which are used by acrobats. He takes apprentices from poor families so they can learn this skill to earn money. His apprentices' training was exposed in the internet and MC was accused of child abuse. To exhort money from their Master, his apprentices lied and accused MC. MC's mission is to influences these children and make them realize their mistake.

World 7: The divine stick (Chapter 97-121) - MC becomes the Ghost Emissary. With no System/missions or the original's memory. MC investigates the 'ghost case' on his own. His mission is to influence the culprit of the ghost case.

World 8: My home has a baby egg (Chapter 122-145) - MC becomes the only son of a Patriarchal family. His mission is to change the personality of his sisters/female cousins and let them not become subservient to men. Also to make the original realize his wrongs. Original gets reborn as one of MC's girl cousins. 

World 9: The correct way of wearing the green hat (Chapter 146-168) - MC becomes the husband of a fake white lotus wife. His wife is having an affair and wants to divorce MC without ruining her reputation so she frames MC instead. MC's Holy Father mission is to let the wife and her adulterer 'fulfill their true love'/get married.

World 10: Zombie King (Chapter 169-191) - Apocalypse. Multiple rebirths from different apocalypse parallel worlds. Some from zombie apocalypse, or extreme weather or mutant plants/animals. MC is destined to become Zombie King. His Holy Father mission is to eliminate zombies. He is the only zombie.

World 11: Tremble, you scum man (Chapter 192-207) - Ancient times. MC becomes the scum husband who chose a widow over his wife and children. After MC came over, his wife, son and daughter are also all reborn and hostile to him. MC pretends to be a fool/revert to a 4 yo child to avoid their revenge.

World 12: An angel who doesn't like to talk (Chapter 208-224) - MC becomes a musical genius with autism. MC Dad is a drug police. MC Mom died from the revenge of a drug lord. MC Dad soon follows. MC joins a talent show. He gets spotted by a big celebrity who sells drugs and wanted to 'control' MC to write songs for him. MC helps the police catch the drug ring. MC's Holy Father mission is to reform the drug sellers/users.(?)

World 13: The rebellion plan of a martyr (Chapter 225-235) - MC becomes a Regent for the royal family. There is no competent heir to the throne. MC needs to be Emperor but his mission is to be recorded in history as 'Loyal/Righteous' so he cannot rebel/seize the throne.

I like it. There are funny arcs, moderately light arcs, and serious arcs. MC is mostly funny/optimistic but there are times when he will be angry/get serious too. (That clown joke caught me off-guard. Huhu MC T_T)

I like MC's way of completing the System tasks by finding loopholes instead of really being a 'Holy Father', like with the filial son who has to get the goodwill of his parents (He's already sooo filial yet his parents still dislike him, so MC did not want to be EVEN MORE filial) or with the husband fulfilling the true love of his cheating wife and his adulterer (Heh). 

He also has a bottomline, and he will risks failing the mission or not do the mission if he really cannot accept it, like reforming the pedophile (scum!) or with the drug pushers/users, MC straight up did not do the mission. 

Favorite arcs: Boastful Dad and Hacker Dad (Arc 2 & 4). Arc 2 cos its light/funny. Arc 4 cos of MC's way of completing the mission.

Least favorite arc: The Autism Arc (Arc 12) cos it was kinda dark. I mean, the way MC's parents died with the drug ring and all; and then the dirty entertainment circle who is plotting against an autistic child so they can 'use' his talent.

Nearest reco: Everyone Knows I'm a Good Man, also a non-fixed CP, with male MC worldhopping and doing missions.
