[Sweet-and-White Master of Disguise*Brilliant Villain with a Sweet-and-White Side] * A Xianxia Novel with a Touch of Mind-Reading
I make the plans, you wield the sword
Overworked wage earner Rong Zhao was hit by a car and died on her way to work.
When she opened her eyes again, she had transmigrated into the Xianxia novel she'd complained about countless times.
The bad news: she wasn't the protagonist.
The worse news: she was cannon fodder.
In the original story, she gave the villain terrible advice, causing them to lose the climactic battle. He then silenced her on the spot. She got no grave, no tombstone, and a rushed, half-hearted death.
Rong Zhao furrowed her brow and quickly came up with a survival plan.
Hmm...
First, stop giving out advice and keep a low profile.
Second, try to survive at least three chapters and escape her cannon-fodder fate.
Finally, stay out of the protagonist and villain's mess. A quiet, ordinary life is best!
But her plan failed right from the start.
“Which sect do you think I should destroy first?”
Rong Zhao: “...Uh.”
Nobody told her the villain was standing right behind her!
She's just a wage earner, a wage earner who somehow got swept into the world of cultivation!
To stay alive, she had no choice but to grit her teeth and talk nonsense.
Making things up was her specialty.
“You need to figure out what people want and analyze their pain points one by one.”
“What they want? Their pain points?”
“Basically, don't make decisions on a whim. Hold a meeting first!”
The villain slapped his forehead. “The strategist speaks true!”
Uh...
Rong Zhao thought the scene was bizarre.
A whole group of bloodthirsty demon cultivators sat in a neat row, seriously discussing what to do.
Rong Zhao looked around. She felt less like she was in a demon's lair and more like she was in an office.
Well... all right, then!
“Everyone, quiet!” Rong Zhao cleared her throat. “Fill out these forms first. I'll sort your requests by priority.”
A job's a job, wherever you do it.
Gold shines wherever it is!
Her plan actually worked. The sect's financial problems were resolved without a single soldier being sent into battle.
From that day on, everyone looked at Rong Zhao differently.
This strategist was farsighted, calculating, and always had a foolproof plan!
The villain: “How does the strategist always see through people's hearts?”
Rong Zhao, proudly: “Just a knack for business.”
The villain: “Lord Strategist, your composure in the face of praise or blame is truly remarkable.”
Rong Zhao, honestly: “I'm used to being yelled at.”
Back in the day, she'd been yelled at by users, bosses, developers, and operations staff.
Now? A drop in the bucket!
But things gradually started to go wrong.
The original story's protagonist showed up early.
The villain, who was supposed to turn evil, was unusually obedient, doing whatever she said.
Worst of all, she, the cannon-fodder character, was right at the center of the storm!
No...
Stay out of the protagonist and villain's mess. A quiet, ordinary life is best!
Rong Zhao immediately packed her bag and prepared to leave.
And the villain who was supposed to destroy the world stood quietly behind her:
“From now on, I'll do whatever the strategist says.”
I'm Ya Bu Hao. So happy to meet you~
