Inari transmigrated into a cultivation novel as a cannon-fodder female character. The System told her that the only way to survive was to win over the male lead and help revive his sect, Wu Yi Sect.
But Wu Yi Sect was full of trouble: the eldest senior brother started fights and had enemies across the land; the second senior brother was a flirtatious menace with countless romantic entanglements; the third senior brother was a master con artist, wanted everywhere; and the fourth senior brother, the male lead, was being hunted by his enemies and had lost all his cultivation.
Inari: “...”
Help, it’s hell from the start.
Fortunately, thanks to her efforts, relations within Wu Yi Sect improved, and its members worked hard to make progress. In the end, the sect became... the number one demonic sect in the cultivation world.
Inari: “?”
System: “Damn it! I got it wrong! This is the villain faction!”
Inari: “!”
What! Then did I win over the wrong male lead, too?!
To save her own skin, Inari faked her death and fled to Cang Yue Sect, the original male lead’s sect.
After years of cultivation, she had become peerless in strength. She helped Cang Yue Sect rise to prominence and earned the complete trust of her fellow disciples.
Inari was relieved that the story had finally gotten back on track, but then she ran into Wu Yi Sect.
Wu Yi Sect had dominated the cultivation world for years, and no one could stand against them. Just as Cang Yue Sect thought they were about to meet their end, the next moment...
The number one fiend of Wu Yi Sect dropped to his knees in front of Inari, tears in his eyes. “Junior Sister? Is that really you?!”
Fiend number two and number three: “Junior Sister? Is that really you?!”
Cang Yue Sect: “??”
Everyone knew that Wu Yi Sect had a beloved junior sister, their moonlight. She had disappeared four years ago, and the whole sect had nearly gone mad trying to find her, willing to do anything to bring her back.
As everyone stood in shock, a strikingly handsome man stepped forward and casually slipped two top-grade spirit pearls into the hands of Cang Yue Sect’s leader.
Fiend number four, Yu Manlou: “Name your price. How much to leave her alone?”
The other fiends were already pouring tea, holding umbrellas, and calling for carriages, ready to escort (kidnap) Inari away with all the attention of a queen.
Cang Yue Sect: “!!”
Damn it! They’re stealing our junior sister!
The Demon Lord Yu Manlou awoke from his seal, severely weakened, and disguised himself as a down-and-out disciple. Only one girl stayed by his side, caring for him in every way.
Girl: “Male lead, male lead, I’m being nice to you. Don’t kill me later, okay?”
Yu Manlou thought, How could he ever kill her?
He wanted nothing more than to cut open his chest, tear out his heart, and offer her every good thing in the world.
But before he could confess his feelings, she died.
Overcome with despair, he shut his heart away again and sank back into the abyss.
Until one day, he saw her again in a crowd.
This time, he would never let her go.
