After Becoming the Villain's Puppet

After transmigrating into a book, Qiao Wan isn't the heroine or even a supporting female character. Instead, she finds herself as the puppet of the cultivation novel's great villain. The villain's mastery of puppetry is unparalleled, but he was once harmed by someone and can no longer speak. In the story, the villain sends a female puppet to infiltrate Lingyun Sect and steal a rare medicinal ingredient that can heal his voice. She is to go undercover among the righteous cultivators while carrying out the theft. But in the story, the puppet is exposed by Lingyun Sect within days. Her mission ends before it even begins, and she is completely destroyed there. Qiao Wan is that unlucky female puppet. To avoid her destined death, as soon as she arrives, Qiao Wan tries every way she can to please her master, hoping to make the great demon king happy enough not to send her on the mission. Unfortunately, all her efforts are wasted. The villain still sends her to Lingyun Sect. Fortunately, Qiao Wan is beautiful and sweet-tongued. She not only thrives at Lingyun Sect, but also learns how to stop being a puppet and become human. But with the villain's deadline fast approaching, Qiao Wan has no choice but to follow the plot and steal the medicine. Lingyun Sect still catches her, and after being gravely injured, she risks her life to hand the medicine over to the person sent to meet her. Then she dies, satisfied. But in truth, while the puppet dies, Qiao Wan uses what she learned to become human again. She heads to the mortal world to lie low, shop, and admire the scenery, living a carefree life. Now and then, when she asks around for news of the cultivation world, Qiao Wan hears that the great villain has suddenly gone mad and is attacking Lingyun Sect, forcing them to hand over their most precious treasure. It seems he wants to... bring a puppet back to life? Qiao Wan: Thanks for asking. Being human is great. Whoever wants to be a puppet can do it themselves. * Shen Hanyue dislikes seeing people, but he has a chatty female puppet who tells him every little thing all day long. She annoys him, yet he gradually can't bear the thought of her disappearing. But one day, she disappears anyway. Shen Hanyue goes mad trying to bring her back to life. But bringing a person back from the dead is already as difficult as reaching the heavens, let alone bringing a puppet back to life. *Archived screenshot, 2021/09/26 Theme: Walk toward the light
