Did the Stand-In Run Off with the Money Today?

[Next Book: The Villain's Sect Is Still Taking It Easy Today] After transmigrating into a book, Ning Wanwan once thought she had landed in a story where everyone doted on her. It wasn't until one day, when her awareness awakened, that she realized the truth: she was merely a substitute heroine in a white-moonlight love-triangle story. When the beloved returned, she would be treated as a spare blood bank and run through the heart with a sword. * After her awareness awakened, Ning Wanwan was done with this. Whoever wanted to be the stand-in could do it themselves! But letting those jerks off so easily somehow didn't sit right with her. Former top-tier star and three-time Best Actress Ning Wanwan furrowed her brow and immediately came up with a plan. Facing the master who wanted to kill her to prove his Dao, she teared up: "Master, people in the immortal sect secretly make fun of my mixed spiritual roots." Her aloof master looked at her eyes, so much like Ye Li's, and mobilized the entire sect to find a spiritual flame for Ning Wanwan to remake her roots. Ning Wanwan: Heavenly spiritual roots, got it √ Facing her gentle second senior brother, who came from the wealthiest family but would later take her kidney and give it to Ye Li, she put on an innocent, sunny smile: "Senior Brother, pink is my favorite color." Her second senior brother spent three hundred thousand spirit stones, giving everything he had to win three priceless pink crystals for Ning Wanwan. Ning Wanwan: Three hundred thousand spirit stones, got it √ ...Later, with spirit stones in her pocket and heavenly spiritual roots in hand, Ning Wanwan even took the immortal sect's most treasured mountain-protecting stone. The night before the beloved Ye Li returned, she ran off with the loot! * After Ye Li returned, the people of the immortal sect were consumed by guilt and swore to give her their hearts and souls, pampering her beyond measure. But they realized too late: The spiritual flame that could help Ye Li cultivate had been used by Ning Wanwan. The spirit stones meant to buy things for Ye Li had been taken by Ning Wanwan. Ye Li wanted a good sword... The sword graveyard was empty! After Ning Wanwan left, the immortal sect suddenly felt cold and empty. Those who had treated her as a substitute should have hated her to the bone, but whenever they thought of her, all they felt was regret and tenderness. Later, the First Immortal Manor lost a junior sister, while the Demon Realm gained a palace mistress. The palace mistress was dashing, and her sword could split the heavens. She was especially wealthy. When she made a grand entrance at the Immortal Sword Tournament, everyone from the immortal manor went mad and tried to forcibly abduct her. At that moment, the Demon Venerable, dressed in black, leisurely stepped in front of her. The others raged helplessly: "Who is he?!" Ning Wanwan blinked, delighted to stir things up: "Uh, he's the pretty boy I keep with the spirit stones I took from you." Everyone: Dead. CP: Overbearing (not really) female sword god x devoted sword spirit who waited a thousand years for love Next Book: The Villain's Sect Is Still Taking It Easy Today After transmigrating into a book, Chu Yunxi became the sect's junior sister: useless at everything except eating. Saving the world was out of the question. Since things had come to this, she might as well eat first. Who knew that one day, the entire sect would start hearing her thoughts. The blackened senior sister, a tragic supporting villainess in a white-moonlight substitute story, took a rare elixir and was about to comfort the scumbag who'd been injured. Chu Yunxi tossed aside her sword. [Great, Senior Sister's gone. Perfect day to slack off.] The workaholic senior sister, already halfway out the sect's front gate: "?" She couldn't take it. Absolutely couldn't take it. Just imagining her junior sister slacking off and missing today's morning training made her feel as if ants were crawling all over her. With a wave of her sleeve, she said, "Forget it, I'm not going. Men can go fend for themselves!" The devoted second male lead in a harem story was her master: a kind and upright man who cared for the whole world, but was morally blackmailed into working himself to death. Chu Yunxi sighed. [That kind of event must be packed, right? I might even have to give a speech.] Her socially anxious master: "..." "Xixi, your master plans to go into seclusion to cultivate. Could you attend this demon-extermination mission in my place?" "I don't..." "Your master will give you a thousand spirit stones." "It's not that I don't want to go, Master. Could you add another thousand?" "Deal!" To help her master eradicate demons and uphold the righteous path, Chu Yunxi set out with her beautiful, tragic junior brother. In the original story, her junior brother was deceived into offering his own blood every day as a sacrifice to the early-deceased female lead. The ritual took place at midnight. Without a word, her junior brother planned to wait until Chu Yunxi was sound asleep, then run far away and get started. Chu Yunxi, who had read the original story: [Go on, get out of here! I haven't returned to my original form in ages. Once you leave, I can finally relax.] Everyone in the sect knew Chu Yunxi's original form was a shedding-prone calico cat, but her junior brother had joined the sect late and hadn't seen it with his own eyes. The fur-obsessed junior brother: "How about I skip Master’s class tonight?" You can go a day without feeding your master, but you can't go a day without petting your kitty. Some time later, the protagonists finally realized: Why had the villains gone on strike? If they were on strike, how were the protagonists supposed to find a substitute, a scapegoat, or a blood bank? Unable to take it anymore, the protagonists came to confront them, only to find that the Sect of the Stronghold, which should have been working diligently to support their grand protagonist ambitions, was gathered around a pot eating hotpot. Protagonists: "How can you still be eating hotpot at a time like this?!" Then a line of text suddenly appeared above one round-faced little girl with almond eyes and black cat ears: [Since you're already here, how about another set of chopsticks?] Theme: Repay kindness with kindness and injustice with justice. Take your fate into your own hands and never submit to it.
