The MC behavior is like he was born in a royal family rather than a cultivation one. Cultivation family would give you more freedom if you are the strongest. Just look at the Ye family. The current strongest isn't the head of the family. He focus on his cultivation. A royal family would want the strongest be in command.
So... What I'm getting from the synopsis is that the MC is a selfish, lazy f*** who let his family, who always treated him like a treasure despite his slovenly ways, fight to the brink of destruction, before reluctantly stepping up to save them. Doesn't sound like a MC I'd enjoy reading about.
So the MC is a lazy character who does not want to do anything, mainly because his system requires it. First he transmigrates to this powerful family and works hard until he is tested to have trash talent. At that point he thinks about his family and realizes that there really is no point in him working hard as his family is one of the most powerful in the world. This unlocks his system. It offers him rewards as long as he keeps being lazy. This being the case and with a very supportive family who does not cast him out for poor talent, he does just what the system requires for his most optimal cultivation.
Later his family gets into trouble and is attacked by 2+1 of the other top level families in the world. At this point he has been lazy for 10 years which change the character of anyone. At first he does not realize there is a problem as he does not keep track of things. When combat breaks out he realizes that his family is under attack. At this point he monitors the situation hoping that he does not need to take action as that would expose his top of the world cultivation. This is fairly natural as he has been lazy for 10 years. But with the love and care he has received from his family he first tries to act as a leader to protect the family without exposing himself. Then he makes a move under the guise of a talisman given to him by his father. Finally when the 3rd family decides to join in to attack his family and those who are the backbone of the family are in danger he finally takes action to save them which also exposes his cultivation.
This is a very fast paced story especially to start with. It starts with him discovering his talent then the system unlocking and then a 10 year time-skip. The story was actually better than most of the reviews suggested, mainly because the MC follows a natural progression based on habit.
just because it's an idle cultivation book doesn't mean I should have to read 15 chapters of them talking about how the families are going to fight with no actual story in the first 20 chapters
