A cynical, lazy junior sect sister x a narcissistic, unhinged Demon Lord

Jiang Xiu transmigrates into a book, becoming a minor junior sect sister whose only activities in the original story are eating and sleeping.

In the book, she is born under a lucky star and picks the right side from the start, lying flat from beginning to end.

So Jiang Xiu lies flat and lives like a lazy fish. The protagonist breaks through to the Golden Core realm, while she remains stuck at Qi Refining for ages.

As she watches the protagonist's group tear apart demons and defend justice, she never expects the Demon Lord to kidnap her.

Jiang Xiu: ???

Turns out she didn't transmigrate into a book, but into its TV adaptation! In the show, the Demon Lord takes her back to make soup!

But why is the Demon Lord, renowned by all as cruel, arrogant, and humorless, so narcissistic?

**

On her first day in the demon realm, Jiang Xiu catches the Demon Lord Ning Shukuang looking in a mirror.

In front of a crowd of demon slaves, he crushes a traitor's skull with one hand, then licks the brain matter from his fingers.

The demon slaves tremble like leaves, swearing their allegiance to the Demon Lord.

But Jiang Xiu hears his thoughts: [Mirror, mirror, tell me, who is the fairest in the land? You don't even have to answer. I know it's me.]

Jiang Xiu: "…"

**

Ning Shukuang means to kill Jiang Xiu to intimidate the protagonist's group. He grabs her by the collar and hangs her from the city wall.

He gazes into the distance as millions of demons below cheer, shouting that the Demon Lord will reign for ten thousand generations.

He is so solemn, so proud, so imperious...

[Ugh, who made this new quilt? It's so rough. My butt still itches.]

Jiang Xiu: "…"

**

Ning Shukuang doesn't kill Jiang Xiu. He says she's a lucky star sent from heaven, and eating her will turn him into a Heavenly Demon.

...Then he regrets it. Because:

[What the hell, Heavenly Demons are that ugly? I don't want to become one. I'm fine as I am. What's so bad about being the Demon Lord? I don't want to get ugly, I don't!]

Jiang Xiu is ecstatic inside. "Then let me go!"

Ning Shukuang chuckles and unfurls a scroll that stretches from the palace to the courtyard.

It's covered in all the things Jiang Xiu has thought about him.

Jiang Xiu: "…"

She's doomed!

My Arch-Rival, Who Became My Dao Companion, Keeps Trying to Seduce Me

Xiao Qingying is a cool, beautiful senior sister in a cultivation novel. She sacrifices herself to seal the Demon Venerable. Everyone, from the male and female leads to the minor characters, mourns her, and they even build an immortal city in her memory.

She should have been reduced to nothing, but instead she survives and becomes the heroine of another, unfinished cultivation novel set in the same world. The author abandoned the story after the leads confessed their feelings and became dual-cultivation partners.

Xiao Qingying has devoted her life to the Dao and the common good, with no interest in romance. She plans to end things with her Dao companion, but he runs her through with his sword.

Then he coughs up blood too, and they discover that the Heartbond Knot binding their bodies can only be undone by death.

Only then does Xiao Qingying realize that she isn't the only one who came back to life. The Demon Venerable she sealed has returned too.

**

To keep Bo Bingjiu from wreaking havoc again, Xiao Qingying uses the Heartbond Knot to keep him by her side.

Bo Bingjiu will do anything to make her willingly undo it.

Even, uh, try to seduce her???

**

Bo Bingjiu is an ambitious demon who was taught by the former Demon Venerable from childhood that "good and evil can never coexist, and picking fights with heaven and earth is the key to success."

He worked hard to become the Demon Venerable, and was only one step away from uniting the three realms when Xiao Qingying shattered his plans with a single demon-slaying arrow.

Now he's back from the dead, and he still can't kill her. This beautiful, ruthless woman will stab herself!

Bo Bingjiu recalls the former Demon Venerable saying that even heroes are powerless against a beauty.

Bo, the beauty, Bingjiu: You're so powerful, but you're still a heroine!

**

Later, Xiao Qingying agrees to undo the Heartbond Knot and set Bo Bingjiu free.

The former Demon Venerable strips off his clothes and sprawls across the bed.

"I'm already yours, you wicked woman. You have to take responsibility!"

Xiao Qingying: "..."

>>>> Fantasy plot-focused story

When Ying Haitang was fifteen, she accidentally fell through a portal during a training mission and transmigrated to another world.

Ten years later, she returns to find a junior sect sister who looks almost exactly like her.

Her fellow disciples have changed too. Her once-cold senior brother, her distant second senior brother, and her hotheaded junior brother all protect her, cling to her, and give in to her at every turn.

Their impression of Ying Haitang is still stuck on the time before she went missing: My helpless, delicate junior sister/senior sister!

Ying Haitang: Are you all getting me mixed up with someone else?

**

An ancient Demon God awakens. The three men abandon their junior sister, trapped in danger, and rush to Ying Haitang, who is safe.

Her senior brother insists she leave and protects her with his life. Her second senior brother offers his blood to heaven to win a slim chance of survival. Her junior brother leaves a final message, wishing to meet her in another life.

Ying Haitang cleaves Mount Kunlun with one sword, splits the Demon God in two, and sends a challenge to the demon realm, signed Ying Haitang.

The demon realm is stunned: Could it be... Sword God Ying Haitang?! The Ying Haitang who sent us running back home last time?!

Senior brother: "So this is what she meant by 'a little bit accomplished'?"

Second senior brother: "So this is what she meant by 'just a reputation'?"

Junior brother: "So this is what senior sister meant by 'nothing worth mentioning'?"

**

Their junior uncle, whom they have never met, is the least gifted but most hardworking disciple in the whole sect. A dwarf in swordsmanship, a giant in theory.

Ying Haitang has barely finished her strike when Lu Qingjue cleaves the sea in two with one sword, splits the Demon God in half, and sends a challenge to the demon realm, signed Lu Qingjue.

The demon realm is stunned again: Could it be... Sword Venerable Lu Qingjue?! The Lu Qingjue who sent us running back home and sealed the gates ten thousand years ago?!

Ying Haitang: "So this is what you meant by 'if you can settle it with words, avoid fighting'?"

Lu Qingjue: "You go first. I'll copy you."

Theme: If you like someone, be brave and pursue them. Don't wait until you miss your chance and regret it
