After Transmigrating into a Mysterious World, I Broke the God King's Heart

Raised like a bird in a cage, Marguerite joined the rebel gods and betrayed her keeper, the God King. At last, she gained the freedom she had long dreamed of, and could go wherever she pleased in every corner of the world.

Everyone thought God King Jialan had imprisoned Marguerite by force because he was blinded by her beauty, only to be outwitted by her in the end and cast down into Hell.

Marguerite was nothing but a poor, helpless canary with nowhere to turn, forced into her predicament.

That is, until Marguerite was sitting in a tavern, listening to a bard spin tales of adventures in another world, when her partner, the new God King, blasted her with a powerful attack.

Only then did everyone hear an unbelievable revelation from the new God King: Jialan had imprisoned her not because he loved her, but because she was a foreign god whom the will of the world was determined to eliminate.

Jialan really had been driven mad by her, but not because he imprisoned the woman he loved and kept her as a canary. He went mad because he was willing to stand against the whole world to protect a heretic like her.

Escapee Witch, Cultivating Immortality Under a Secret Identity

Sword Immortal Tang Li rescued a baby while slaying demons and sent her to be raised as the adopted daughter of the Third Concubine of the Luo family in Yancheng. The baby became famous because her looks were so astonishing that everyone who saw her had to say, "She is unbelievably ugly."

The Third Concubine repeatedly comforted her adopted daughter, telling her that being a little ugly was no big deal. She would leave her daughter all the jewelry she had saved away, enough to keep her fed and clothed for life, so she must not be sad about it.

Luo Xiaoxiao, who was not sad at all: ...Thank you, Mother.

She had cut off her own horns, torn off her own wings, and chopped off her own tail. What did she have to be sad about?

If she did not do that, how could she blend in with people?

But the others did not see it that way.

Her adoptive mother gave her box after box of jewelry. Sword Immortal Tang Li feared she would be bullied, so she gave her private lessons every day and passed on secret manuals. Her senior brother never forgot to sell the healing pills she made by hand while out slaying demons, and every demon he killed was thoroughly looted so he could give the spoils to her. Whenever someone insulted her, her senior sister would drag them into an alley in a sack and knock them out one by one, then bring her all sorts of rare flowers and herbs gathered in the wild.

Luo Xiaoxiao: ...

Stop giving me things, please. Keep this up and I could buy the whole city of Yancheng.

Sometimes Luo Xiaoxiao wondered whether people who cultivated immortality had already left all mundane pleasures behind.

She knew all too well what she looked like after disfiguring herself. The adored darling loved by everyone? She should forget about that and get some rest. She had to get up early tomorrow to sell spirit herbs.

But at some point, more and more followers willing to risk their lives for her began gathering behind her.

Luo Xiaoxiao looked at her face in the mirror, so ugly it offended gods and men alike, and felt perplexed.

Did immortals never care about looks?

Was everyone in the world of cultivation really so refined and unconventional?

Theme: I kept falling, all the way into the abyss, yet still caught sight of a glimmer of light, faint and dazzling.
