The Supporting Female Character Loves Cultivating Immortality

Honestly, I'm not especially good at joking around.

This isn't how I usually write romance, but I wanted to try this kind of silly, absurd style. Please forgive me for making a fool of myself.

As a proper vicious female side character in a xianxia novel, Mu Jin naturally has an enviable family background, a pure and ethereal beauty like a little white flower, and absolutely terrible cultivation skills.

After all, a pretty but useless girl is exactly what it takes to make the heroine look both beautiful and powerful.

One day, after bullying the heroine, Mu Jin was suddenly bound by a System that had dropped out of nowhere. Only then did she learn that she was merely the second female lead in a romance novel:

She had been raised as the darling of her father, the sect leader. Though gifted at cultivation, she was extremely lazy and stopped cultivating after reaching Foundation Establishment.

The heroine, by contrast, was a mere mortal. With her strong will and remarkable talent, she was taken as a disciple by an elder of the sect. Her courage and intelligence deeply attracted the male lead.

The second female lead, who had a crush on him, was unwilling to accept this and repeatedly framed the heroine. But in the end, she could not overcome the power of the Mary Sue halo. A demon beast disfigured her, and the male lead crippled her cultivation. She died a miserable early death in a shabby little room in the sect...

Who could have guessed that the System that appeared out of nowhere would be a cultivation System! If she failed to complete the cultivation tasks assigned by the System, she would be punished by having her beauty reduced.

Mu Jin, who valued her looks above her life...

From then on, the lazy junior sister began showing up regularly in the Scripture Pavilion and the dueling grounds. Her diligent figure was downright alarming.

Everyone: ???

Premise: I'm doing everything I can to make you laugh. If it's not funny, please don't be too hard on this fragile author
