This Is How It Starts? I Choose to Fake My Death [Book Transmigration]

[New novel, The Villains I Raised All Went Off the Rails [Quick Transmigration], now updating] Reborn after death, Shen Ji transmigrates into a book as a disposable cauldron, forced to be offered to the most powerful villain, the Phoenix Sovereign Xie Fu. At the crucial moment, he is drugged too, leaving him no way to escape. Just as things are about to turn deadly, a System appears out of nowhere, claiming it can immediately carry out two requests made within its rules. Shen Ji uses it to freeze Xie Fu in place. After all, in the book Xie Fu is not only a major villain but also the strongest person around. If Shen Ji doesn’t use outside help to restrain him, something could go wrong. But stopping him isn’t enough to solve the problem at hand. Shen Ji makes his second request: “Help me get out of here.” The System dutifully asks, “Are you sure?” The drug is already taking effect. Shen Ji frowns. “Just get me out of here.” The System replies sweetly, “All right.” And then “Rrrip!” Two sets of clothes burst into a storm of scattered scraps. Shen Ji: “…?” The System’s voice sounds again. “Your beginner’s golden privilege has expired!” “Tasks unlocking. Please wait patiently, Host, and enjoy your day!” Shen Ji: “…” He looks at the villain in front of him, whose eyes are gradually filling with anger. His breathing grows hotter by the moment, but he manages to hold on to the last shred of his composure. Right. He’ll have to think about an escape route afterward. Author’s Weibo: @Jinjiang Xiaoyao Take a look at my upcoming novel: The Villains I Raised All Went Off the Rails [Quick Transmigration] Blurb: Xiao Chen’s mission is to fix the bad habit of the villainous bosses slacking off, and get his targets back on the right path: “Take down the protagonist, succeed, then die.” Everything goes smoothly. But every time he’s about to assess the results at the final step, his target goes berserk, betrays his teacher, and commits the most outrageous acts of treachery. When he’s inexplicably imprisoned, Xiao Chen doesn’t care. The villain is acting like a proper villain, the mission is complete, and he chooses to leave the small world and let everyone else have the stage. But not long after he leaves, the System flashes a red warning light. “Mission failure imminent!” Xiao Chen: “?” “The Host must return to the small world immediately to fix things!” Xiao Chen’s vision blurs, but he doesn’t return to his original body. Among the ruins before him, his familiar target walks through the smoke and comes to a stop in front of the world’s protagonist. He crouches and grips the other man’s chin, his hold like an iron vice. A crazed smile spreads from his lips to his eyes, barely veiling the icy ruthlessness beneath. “I want you to bring someone back to life.” The crystal coffin he has carried day after day falls to the ground as he moves. Inside the coffin lies a dead man. Xiao Chen looks over. The body that once belonged to him now lies in the coffin, looking just as it did in life. The target gazes through the coffin at that face, which seems merely asleep. His voice softens, but his tone is full of desperate, all-or-nothing obsession. He says quietly, “If you can’t bring him back, you and everyone you know will die.” Theme: Nothing is impossible if you’re willing to climb for it.
