What’s it like to transmigrate into The Nine Tripods as a spoiled villain who doesn’t survive past chapter fifty?
Lin Mo: Thanks for asking. Just transmigrated, currently at Guiyuan Sect. The bed’s hard, and the leg of my table is propped up with the Yu Emperor’s handwritten notes.
The good news: I know the plot and where every opportunity lies.
The bad news: Teng Qingshan, the protagonist who’s supposed to kill me, is also a transmigrator.
The worse news: He’s blessed by fate, while I’m just a disposable character destined to die to one swing of an axe.
Picking a fight head-on? That’s just asking to get killed.
Stealing his opportunities? Even if I get them, they’ll only bring trouble.
Luckily, Lin Mo awakens the 【Fatebound Villain System】
Steal the protagonist’s opportunities to earn Fate Points.
Fate Points can be exchanged for martial arts, pills, and divine weapons from the Myriad Worlds.
But he doesn’t choose to steal them outright.
Instead, he does something even crazier
He writes a script for the child of destiny.
The Yu Emperor’s notes? Leave out two crucial lines of the formula and give them to him once he hits a bottleneck.
A life-saving favor? Have the old apothecary “happen” to pass by, and take credit for the favor myself.
An opportunity in the Scripture Pavilion? Put the manual in the most conspicuous spot and wait for him to find it.
The Yu Emperor’s legacy? Once all the jade pendants are collected and the entrance is found, let him go in while I wait outside to reap the rewards.
Teng Qingshan encounters one lucky break after another, grows stronger by the day, and becomes more and more convinced that he is destined for greatness.
He has no idea that every “coincidence” has been carefully written down, stroke by stroke, by someone behind the scenes.
Until one day, he stands at the summit of the Nine Provinces and looks back
Every thread leads to the same person.
The “good-for-nothing” he never once paid attention to.
Lin Mo stands in the shadows and smiles faintly:
“Not bad acting, protagonist.”

If there are too few words, it would be better to write about all the heavens and all the worlds.
