The Cannon-Fodder Uses Science to Master Beasts and Rule the Cultivation World [Book Transmigration]

A scheming, dog-like older top × a prickly, rabbit-like younger bottom

-

Guan Muyun, an animal trainer, transmigrates into a book,

becoming a cannon-fodder servant in a melodramatic, angst-filled cultivation novel.

She is about to poison the protagonist at the scene of a scripted death,

then get killed in an instant.

Guan Muyun acts without hesitation: Run!

If she runs fast enough, the plot can't catch her!

But she never expected that,

on the run, she'd casually rescue a little crybaby who fell off a cliff,

accidentally activating the Life-and-Death Gu in her arms.

From then on, their lives are bound together.

If one dies,

the other won't survive either.

And this young lord of a prestigious clan, Nangong Wanxing,

is the villain from the original novel, who loves without hope, turns evil in anguish, and ultimately dies a tragic death.

Guan Muyun: ??? My life matters too!!!

To survive until the finale, Guan Muyun decides:

First,

work hard at cultivation,

save up enough spirit stones,

and buy a pill to remove the Gu as soon as possible.

Second,

stop Nangong Wanxing from going down the path of corruption,

keep her alive,

and thereby keep herself alive too.

But she soon discovers

that her original body's spiritual roots are astonishingly poor.

After ten years of cultivation, she's still a first-rank weakling.

And her modern scientific knowledge of animal training, in this cultivation world, can actually...

calm berserk spirit beasts with her bare hands?

Help ordinary spirit beasts break through their bloodline seals and advance into ancient divine beasts?

Even... draw on the power of all beasts alone and repel a demonic invasion?!

Guan Muyun: Suddenly, this plot... doesn't seem so bad?

With her cultivation steadily improving,

her spirit stone balance climbing,

and freedom from the Gu just around the corner,

Guan Muyun feels that life is looking brighter and brighter.

But can someone tell her

why the young lord Nangong keeps looking at her more and more strangely,

and follows her around all day?

"Senior Sister Guan, from now on, you're mine! If anyone bullies you, I'll protect you!"

"Senior Sister Guan, from now on, you have to be a good girl and listen to me. You're going to be my personal sidekick!"

"Senior Sister Guan, if you dare treat me badly, I'll... cry a whole river in the sky and drown you!"

Guan Muyun: ...Where's the ruthless, cruel, corrupted villain we were promised? Who's this childish little crybaby in front of me?!

[Bonus Scene]

At their bond-joining ceremony, red candles burn bright.

But just then, the Heavenly Dao descends with divine punishment, seeking to erase the cannon fodder and villain who should have been written out long ago.

Nangong Wanxing takes a fatal blow for Guan Muyun, hanging on by a thread.

The Heavenly Dao's phantom hangs in midair, cackling wickedly:

"Outsider, if you are willing to kill her with your own hands...

I can make sure only she dies, and spare your life."

Guan Muyun stands protectively in front of Nangong Wanxing,

facing the pressure of the Heavenly Dao, smiling with easy composure:

"What a load of nonsense, Heavenly Dao."

"You want my wife's life? You'll have to go to hell first."

[Content Notes]

1. This novel is split evenly between plot and romance. The plot takes a while to develop, the protagonists' plot armor is at maximum throughout, and this is not a typical power-progression story.

2. The romance has the top doting on the bottom, with a bickering-couple dynamic and a long period of mutual pining. Early on, the bottom has a nominal fiancee and, under the Heavenly Dao's influence, doesn't know that she likes the top. In the original novel, her corruption was not actually caused by love.

3. Any scenes involving outdoor activities, animal training, or pet care are invented by the author as needed for the plot. Please don't take them as a depiction of real life.

4. There is a secondary couple.
