You Wanted Me as a Stepping Stone, Not to Crush the Empress

[Not an overpowered protagonist story; unorthodox villain × lighthearted × winning over the Empress × a mind that works in mysterious ways]

Xiao Qiang accidentally transmigrates to the Fuguang Continent and gets a bizarre System.

The System actually orders him to be a stepping stone and awaken the potential of the heaven's chosen heroine!

It doesn't care whether he lives or dies!

The System tells him that if he dies, he'll make it onto the Villain Glory List and be remembered for all eternity!

Who the heck wants to be on some glory list?

Who the heck wants to be remembered forever?

He just wants to stay alive!

To fight for the slimmest chance of survival, he has no choice but to walk a tightrope along the edge of a cliff.

He's either courting death or on his way to court it.

Years later, the Nine Heavens Demon-Subduing Formation is broken, and countless demons and monsters pour out of the Scarlet Flame Abyss.

Xiao Qiang takes one look, and the monsters vanish into dust in an instant...
