Shen Xinning transmigrated into a xianxia novel as the villainous junior sister. To survive, she has to ascend to godhood and activate the Heavenly Dao.
System: To keep from acting out of character, you can only improve your cultivation by getting someone else to kill you. The higher their cultivation, the faster yours will improve.
Shen Xinning: Do I have to scam people into attacking me to ascend in the cultivation world?
She challenges the number one sect, then snaps the treasured sword of their genius sword cultivator in half. "The murder of your wife calls for vengeance! There's no time like the present, fellow cultivator. Why not use my blood to consecrate your sword?"
To her surprise, the genius sword cultivator looks impressed. "This sword was possessed by evil qi, and no one in the sect could break the curse. I never thought you would dispel it so easily. I take my hat off to you!"
Shen Xinning: ?
She kidnaps the Demon Lord just after he emerges from seclusion, then casually tosses out a talisman that breaks his soul-protecting formation. "What a lousy formation. Even your spirit pet can take a harder hit. No time like the present: why not take my heart's blood to nourish the formation?"
The Demon Lord laughs freely. "This formation has bound me for over ten thousand years. At last, I'm free. Take this ancient divine beast as a gift. From now on, the fate of the demon world rests on your word."
Shen Xinning: ?
At night, she sneaks a peek at the handsome, immaculate Immortal Venerable as he cultivates. She dashes into his room and throws herself into his arms, her eyes hazy and alluring. "Immortal Venerable, your figure is exquisite. There's no time like the present..."
She thinks this time she'll finally succeed in ascending, but the man wraps an arm around her waist, lowers his head, and ravishes her lips. His cool, clear voice is laced with seductive desire as he murmurs in her ear:
"I forgot to tell you. I mainly cultivate the Heartless Dao, and also practice the dual-cultivation arts of the Hehuan Sect."
Shen Xinning is completely dumbfounded. "So, do you look easy to kill to me?"
The next day, she props her chin on her hand and looks at her newly accepted disciple.
"Our cultivation technique is perfect for getting people to attack us."
"It'd better be. If you say even one word less, they won't make a move. One little slip, and you could end up getting yourself killed."
