The Cannon Fodder Heroine Only Wants to Seize the Throne

Coming soon: After the Male Lead I Picked Up Turns Evil and Becomes the Demon Lord. The blurb is below.

Blurb:

Ye Xiaoling transmigrated into a cultivation novel, and immediately had to clean up the original owner's mess.

The original owner was a bona fide cannon-fodder supporting female character: a useless nobody who was about to get herself killed and written out of the story. That is, right now.

To stay alive, she temporarily decided to rely on the villain.

Later, she dutifully completed her System's missions, wanting only to steer clear of the original plot. But then she discovered that the story seemed to have gone off the rails:

The villain no longer wanted to seize the throne, and instead kept showing up in front of her to get her attention.

The original male lead had eyes only for her.

Even the supporting characters who were supposed to make life difficult for the original heroine started targeting her...

Later still, the villain and the original male lead began competing for her affections.

Ye Xiaoling: ??

So even cannon fodder can be a femme fatale?

But she only wants to seize the throne! Only by ruling the cultivation world can she change her fate!

The villain, who heard her thoughts: Sure. The throne is yours, and you are mine.

Ye Xiaoling: ...

A sweeping girl who grows ever more obsessed with seizing the throne X a jealous villain who has no interest in ruling and only wants to claim her

Coming soon: After the Male Lead I Picked Up Turns Evil and Becomes the Demon Lord

Ji Yunchu returned to the past and discovered that the pitiful boy she'd picked up years ago was the male lead of a novel. But the arrival of a transmigrator had caused the novel's world to collapse, and the male lead had turned evil.

Now he was a ruthless, coldhearted Demon Lord, destined to bring ruin to all living things and destroy everything.

Her task was to stop the male lead and keep the world from falling further apart. The problem was, he hated her to the core.

They met again at an inn in the cultivation world. He was wreathed in thick demonic energy, his handsome face dark and vicious, his gaze so cold it could freeze a person solid.

Ji Yunchu trembled: Boohoo... he's terrifying!

She took several deep breaths. "I... I want to be friends with you."

His gaze turned instantly sinister, his voice low and hoarse. "If you don't want to die, get lost."

Ji Yunchu immediately felt wronged. Her eyes reddened and filled with tears. "Boohoo... Sishu is so mean to me and doesn't even want to be friends. I'm so hurt..."

Pei Sishu: ?? What is wrong with her?

*

Pei Sishu never thought she would dare show her face in front of him again. He agreed to be her friend only because he wanted to see how long she could keep up the act this time.

Later, when a romantic rival came to the Demon Realm looking for her, he sent her away without a hint of emotion. Yet when he heard that she and her rival were going to marry, he went mad and led the Demon Realm's army into the cultivation world.

*

The Demon Realm's army surrounded the cultivation world. The sects all picked up their weapons, ready to fight the demon lord to the death.

But the demon lord ignored everyone and slowly approached the girl in her red wedding gown. In full view of the crowd, he gently caressed her cheek, then lowered his head and left a mark on her lips as everyone stared in shock.

Then he swept his gaze over the onlookers and his romantic rival with contempt. "My Demon Empress. Let me see who dares marry her."

With that, he carried the girl off by force, and the Demon Realm's army departed with him.

The cultivators, finally coming to their senses: Outrageous! What arrogance! He doesn't take the cultivation world seriously at all!
