After the Contrast Character in a Xianxia Novel Had Their Talent Stolen

[My next book is "The Cannon Fodder Junior Sister Refuses to Follow the Plot". Please add it to your collection!]

Shen Yunmeng is the foil to her older cousin, Shen Yunyue.

Shen Yunyue was born with a sword bone and became the Sword Sovereign of the Xuantian Sword Sect's personal disciple. Shen Yunmeng, on the other hand, was brought to the sect by Shen Yunyue as unwanted baggage. With her crippled meridians, she lived in the inner sect and endured constant abuse.

Shen Yunyue reached the Golden Core stage before twenty and was hailed as a genius. Shen Yunmeng was not even at Foundation Establishment at twenty and became a laughingstock.

Shen Yunyue and her Dao companion were a match made in heaven. Shen Yunmeng lost all her cultivation and was forced to marry one of Shen Yunyue's admirers.

Until...

She discovered that Shen Yunyue's sword bone belonged to her.

Shen Yunyue's path to genius had been paved by her own mother, who used Shen Yunmeng as a stepping stone.

They had stolen Shen Yunmeng's sword bone to make Shen Yunyue a genius, then used Shen Yunmeng's aura to nurture it and help Shen Yunyue assimilate it. They even planned to force her to marry Shen Yunyue's admirer, so she would never be free of them...

And they had the nerve to call it a reward for her crippled meridians.

Shen Yunmeng prepared to take revenge.

After ten years of endurance and countless schemes, she risked her life and fought Shen Yunyue to the death.

But when she opened her eyes again, she had returned to the age of six. She was too late, though: her sword bone had already been stolen.

And her enemies from her previous life were plotting together, hoping to send her down the same path of no return.

Shen Yunmeng flipped the table and ran.

I'm done with this! Let's see if Shen Yunyue can still become a genius without me as a vessel to nurture her sword bone!

Unexpectedly, when bad luck strikes, even teleportation can go wrong. While fleeing, she accidentally entered a forbidden area in a land devoid of spiritual energy.

*

Later...

The demon dragon, sealed in the forbidden area for millions upon millions of years, appeared, terrifying the world.

At the same time, a Sword Sovereign emerged from nowhere, facing the Heavenly Dao alone with nothing but a sword.

As everyone waited for the new Sword Sovereign to measure swords with the demon dragon...

The demon dragon followed behind the Sword Sovereign. "Mengmeng, climb on my back. I fly fast and steady!"

Blurb:

It was only after turning six that Zhen Liushuang realized she had transmigrated into a book.

She had entered "The Path to Immortality", a million-word power fantasy for male readers about a domineering hero who humiliates his enemies.

Fortunately, she wasn't one of the male lead's countless harem members. Unfortunately, she was a cannon-fodder character who died young.

In the book, she and the male lead set out on the road to immortality together. After he showed her a little concern, she devoted herself to him, becoming his sidekick and junior sister.

From then on, whenever the male lead got into trouble, she took the blame; when he was injured, she took the blade for him; when he flirted with a demoness, she stood guard...

Even her death was just a way to deliver a treasure to the male lead and help him reach the supreme path to immortality.

After remembering everything, Zhen Liushuang immediately decided to stay far away from the male lead.

She gave up the sword for the saber, joined the Saber Sect, and became a renowned saber wielder.

Years later, she had made a name for herself and become a towering figure in the immortal sects. When people asked her about those days, she would always say how lucky it was that she hadn't chosen the sword. Otherwise, the Sword Sect would have one more lonely ghost haunting its mountain.

Everyone: ...

The Venerable One must have forgotten that she was the one who leveled the Sword Sect's mountain.

Upcoming book: "Crossing into Immortality"

Theme: No matter how many times you fall, remain resilient and unyielding.
