I Tried to Save the Villain by Treating Her as the Heroine

Tang Qian transmigrates into a book, with the task of saving the tragic protagonist of a melodramatic romance. According to the plot, she arrives at a ruined temple and, sure enough, finds a helpless little girl there. She takes the girl in as her younger sister.

Tang Qian: I'll protect my little sister no matter what!

Her little sister has snowy skin and black hair, peerless beauty, eyes like autumn waters, and a gentle manner. She just loves staring at Tang Qian and blushing.

Tang Qian: My little sister is so shy!

But what she doesn't know is:

1. This is a danmei novel, but she thinks it's a heterosexual romance.

2. She picked up the wrong person. The one she found is the villain.

On a snowy night, a starving, freezing child who had wandered into a ruined temple had a vivid dream. In it, he was Ji Lian, a cruel, bloodthirsty villain, hated and feared by the world.

In the dream, he killed them all.

But there was one woman he didn't kill. Instead, he stared at her and blushed.

Tang Qian runs into a demonic cultivator. He's more powerful than she is, but for her little sister's virtue, she has no choice but to steel herself and fight. Just as she's utterly despairing, convinced she's done for, the demonic cultivator suddenly convulses wildly and drops dead first.

After a moment of stunned silence, she understands.

Tang Qian: My transmigration golden finger must have finally kicked in!

Delighted, she pulls her little sister into her arms and cuddles her.

Ji Lian has just drained the demonic cultivator dry, and trembles with excitement. Held in her warm embrace and breathing in her scent, he becomes even more excited. Seeing her little sister trembling with fear, Tang Qian looks at her with pity and thinks that her delicate little flower of a sister is simply too timid.

"Don't be afraid. I'll protect you." She soothes her with a kind expression.

Ji Lian, trembling with excitement, replies gently, "Mm."

[Other Details]

1. A slice-of-life story with a happy ending.

2. The BL-related scenes involve only a few passersby in one or two chapters.

3. Before the male lead's identity is revealed, there is a period when the female lead thinks she has fallen for her younger sister, who is also a girl. I don't think this is something that needs a warning, but someone said this is GL and that seeing it in a BG story is a big turnoff, and gave me a bad rating. So here's a heads-up: if this bothers you, don't read. Spare yourself and me.

My Master Killed All My Boyfriends

(Third-person narration)

Inside the secret realm, I am the Princess Consort of Prince Qi. I love my husband, Cui Shao, but he loves the empress. To win back the woman he loves, he even plots to usurp the throne.

My beauty captivates the emperor, and I catch his interest.

Cui Shao grips my chin and says coldly, "Since you love me so much, why not seduce the emperor and get him to help me?"

I gaze at him, tears streaming as I murmur, "I'll do it."

The System laughs like a chicken squawking. "Isn't the emperor your target anyway?"

The day Prince Qi's rebels breach the capital, I throw myself in front of the emperor and take a devastating arrow for him, maxing out his affection for me.

I collapse into the emperor's arms, ready to bow out after completing my mission, when out of the corner of my eye I see my husband, his eyes bloodshot and his expression nearly feral.

Is something seriously wrong with him?

#

After leaving the secret realm, I'm the useless disciple of Sword Lord Qiyou. I've never met my master, because he cultivates the Heartless Path and went off to overcome a tribulation of love.

My master has returned. He looks so much like Cui Shao, but how could my master, as pure and cold as a snow-covered jade bud and as otherworldly as an immortal, possibly be that gloomy, deeply unwell Prince Qi?

Holy crap, the woman he brought back looks exactly like the empress!

Holy crap, he really is Cui Shao!

He failed his tribulation of love!

His Heartless Path is broken!

The empress is incredible!

Luckily, my master doesn't remember an insignificant nobody like me.

I kneel and sincerely say, "Your disciple wishes you a happy marriage and hopes you can bring home a wife and stay together forever."

The aloof Sword Lord looks down at me, his gaze cold as ice.

#

My master has found his happiness, and I have to get back to my own mission. As a notorious female cultivator, I have far too many past lovers to count.

One night, a former demonic cultivator boyfriend sneaks into the sect to elope with me.

Of course I don't want to go, so I struggle with him.

My master catches us.

I don't want to elope with my ex, but I don't want to watch him die either, so I resort to a desperate measure and plead through my tears, "I love him, and he loves me. Please, Master, let him go!"

"Very well," says my beloved master.

I'm overjoyed.

My master thrusts his sword forward and stabs my ex to death.

That handsome face wears the same gloomy expression as my deeply unwell former husband.

"Is this what you meant by letting him go?" he asks quietly, his gaze calm and mad.

I'm stunned.

I respect my master and love the Dao. How could he treat me like this?
