[Visit my profile for a fantasy story coming soon: The Max-Level Healer Transmigrates into a Pitiful Sect Disciple. The blurb is at the bottom.]
Blurb:
Jiang Jin is forced to become a fixer in a rapidly unraveling harem novel, playing the female lead's bootlicking junior sister and repairing the world after the original host's awakening throws it off course.
In the book, the original host is naturally gifted, but as she devotes herself to the female lead, the useless heroine gradually takes everything from her. In the end, the original host dies saving the heroine, who has risked her life to put on a self-sacrificing act.
Then one day, the original host awakens and refuses to be a bootlicker any longer. The furious Heavenly Dao erases her.
But this bootlicker role is crucial, so the Heavenly Dao can only drag Jiang Jin, who was living quite happily in the modern world, into the book.
Jiang Jin's mission from the Heavenly Dao is to be the heroine's bootlicker, ensuring that the heroine gets to live a harem story where, despite being a good-for-nothing, she receives all sorts of opportunities and magical treasures, and has a whole crowd of men devoted to her.
But Jiang Jin has always been rebellious.
A bootlicker? Not even a dog would do that.
Jiang Jin ignores the Heavenly Dao's warnings and refuses to be a bootlicker. She focuses on cultivating and growing stronger, making the good-for-nothing heroine, who only sits around waiting for opportunities and magical treasures to drop into her lap, grind her teeth with jealousy.
But being strong can't solve everything.
Even the original host, powerful as she was, was forced by the heroine's suitors to give the heroine gifts. They all used the heroine's weakness as an excuse to guilt-trip Jiang Jin into helping her.
Too bad for them, they ran into Jiang Jin.
If the heroine is weak, Jiang Jin is even more delicate.
With this trick, Jiang Jin avoids all the early moral blackmail, until one day the heroine puts on a deathbed performance.
The heroine puts on a pitiful face and asks Jiang Jin to save her.
The heroine's suitors pressure Jiang Jin to save her.
With someone's life at stake, she can no longer reject their moral blackmail by saying she's even weaker than the heroine.
Under immense pressure, just as Jiang Jin is about to crack, Patriarch Yu Jue, who has been living in seclusion on Songyi Peak, comes out and shields her.
"Jin'er is frail. I'm afraid she can't save someone putting on a self-sacrificial act."
Jiang Jin stares at Yu Jue in a daze, realizing that this revered and feared patriarch is actually the fellow cultivator she met by chance while traveling outside the sect.
Yu Jue, the Sword Sect's patriarch, made a name for himself with a single sword strike as a youth, but has been stuck at the peak of the Deity Transformation stage for a hundred years.
His friend often tells him that he can't keep being an unfeeling stone on Songyi Peak. He should go see the human world once in a while and turn his unfeeling heart into a feeling one. Perhaps that will help him reach the Mahayana stage.
Yu Jue scoffs at this idea, but after another failed attempt to break through to the Mahayana stage, he decides to temporarily erase his memories, seal away half his cultivation, and exile himself to the mortal world.
He will go see the human world, just as his friend suggested, pretending to be a wandering cultivator.
Yu Jue thought the mortal world would be nothing special. But while exiled there, he accidentally becomes a fellow cultivator with a junior disciple from his own sect, and they spend many days together.
Thinking himself nothing more than a wandering cultivator, Yu Jue turns his unfeeling heart into a feeling one, only to suddenly regain his memories one day.
Falling in love with a disciple of his own sect unsettles Yu Jue's Dao heart and nearly sends him into demonic cultivation. In his haste, he returns to Songyi Peak to enter seclusion, without even finding time to say goodbye.
Thinking they were destined never to meet again, and unwilling to tempt a junior, Yu Jue silently protects her from the shadows.
Until one day, when everyone corners her and she stands on the brink of death, tears in her eyes, Yu Jue can no longer stay hidden.
After learning the truth, Jiang Jin corners Yu Jue beside the boulder at the highest point of Songyi Peak.
"Your cultivation was weak? You had no sect or faction? You were all alone? You were so poor you could barely afford a meal?" Jiang Jin snorts as she lists his lies.
"I was wrong." Yu Jue smiles and pinches her nose.
A few notes:
They are each other's first love.
The blurb has been changed, but the premise is the same.
The female lead isn't a beauty or a strong woman. She's exceptionally gifted and incredibly powerful, and she knows how to act weak to disgust her opponents.

Fantasy story coming soon: The Max-Level Healer Transmigrates into a Pitiful Sect Disciple
Yun Zan is the only healer on the Heavenly List of the Immortal Sects. She is respected throughout the cultivation world, and even the demonic sects wouldn't dare act out in front of her.
But she fails her tribulation while ascending and is struck by a heavenly lightning bolt, landing directly in the body of a pitiful sect disciple in a cultivation harem novel she had read a few days earlier.
The sect's pitiful disciple is hated by everyone. She could have had a smooth life, but the female lead arrives and drains her luck, turning her into a hated, disposable side character.
But Yun Zan is a powerful cultivator at the Tribulation Transcendence stage, and she carries her own good fortune. Besides, this is only a world in a book, so the heroine is no match for Yun Zan.
So,
While hunting demons, the heroine thinks the sect's pitiful disciple will be abandoned.
Instead, Yun Zan shows off her medical skills so impressively that the senior brothers and sisters praise her and invite her to join their demon-hunting team.
At the Immortal Sects Tournament, the heroine thinks the sect's pitiful disciple will just be a supporting act.
Instead, Yun Zan's spellwork leaves her opponents running in circles, and she wins first place.
When the heroine goes out to gain experience, she thinks the sect's pitiful disciple will come back in disgrace.
Instead, Yun Zan goes out once and comes back with... a romantic partner?!
That romantic partner is none other than the current Demon Lord. After Yun Zan saves him once, he pursues her relentlessly, determined to offer himself to her.
Yun Zan: Stay away. Romance gets in the way of my healing.
Pei Kun, the Demon Lord, was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. He is powerful, and everyone in the demonic sects fawns over him. He has a rebellious, arrogant nature and is as proud and unruly as they come.
More than anything, he hates people bringing up marriage. He once swore he would never take a romantic partner in this life.
Until, after fighting his enemies for three days and three nights, he collapses from his injuries. Through his blurred vision, he sees a female cultivator skillfully heal his wounds, then take him along and carefully nurse him back to health.
At first, he thinks the female cultivator is after his good looks.
But while treating his wounds, she never even looks at his face. When they meet again after parting, she doesn't even recognize him.
Later, he thinks the female cultivator wants to become the Demon Lord's wife.
But she always thinks he's just an ordinary member of the demonic sect. Demon Lord? What Demon Lord? She doesn't even know who he is.
Pei Kun gets angry and starts chasing after her.
At first, it's just wounded pride. Later, he falls for her completely.
Later, Yun Zan finally manages to tear open this world and return to her own, thinking she has nothing more to do with it. But then she sees Pei Kun has come along with her.
"If I can't be your romantic partner, how about your husband?" Pei Kun drops his arrogant, unruly act and gazes at the healer with a pleading look.
"That works," Yun Zan answers, pretending to be calm.

Fantasy: The Max-Level Healer Transmigrates into a Pitiful Sect Disciple
Theme: Love and understanding each other, moving forward together.
It seems that Tiandao is sick. If he doesn't want to be a licking dog, he will die?
The plot is okay, but the writing is a bit uncomfortable
Ah... It should be quite nice to write as a medium-length novel. The plot line is pretty good but it develops so fast.
The author loves to write whatever he likes... But it was so sad to see the little sisters being torn apart.
Ah, what about after our eyes met?
It's written like a running account record
I don't know why, but I always feel like I'm seeing Sister Lin.
No way, no way, Xiaoling will be fine
Damn, I keep hinting that Xiaoling will die.
I don't understand, why can't the heroine just say clearly that she is not Liu Chun? Even if Liu Chun dies in the end, you can't blame her, right? At most, the heroine can be said to be ruthless, and even the heroine cannot be kicked out of the sect.
