Blurb:

After Xie Lingyue died, she learned that she was the short-lived supporting heroine in a story.

She had once been exceptionally talented, favored by her master, close to her fellow disciples, and destined for the Great Dao, until a lucky little junior sister appeared out of nowhere.

The junior sister was sweet and delicate, while Xie Lingyue was proud and strong-willed. She was constantly misunderstood, framed, and deprived of credit, gradually going from everyone's darling to everyone's least favorite.

In the end, her foundation shattered, leaving her unable to make further progress. She was imprisoned in a water dungeon, bled and stripped of her core, and died in agony and resentment.

After death, her soul left her body. She watched her junior sister put on her golden core, wield her weapons, and imitate her, then become the envy of the cultivation world as a blissfully matched immortal couple with the senior brother who had once been engaged to Xie Lingyue.

...It was enough to make her turn in her grave.

Fortunately, at the end of the story, her former sworn enemy, the junior brother expelled from their sect, returned. The evil cultivator Fei Can rose to become the Asura King and slaughtered cultivation sects large and small, avenging her in a way.

*

Xie Lingyue was reborn.

At that time, she had gone alone to the Demon Realm to pick immortal herbs for her master. Afflicted by a love curse, she was struggling to raise her blade against Fei Can.

Beneath the moonlight, the young man's eyes and brows were dark and sinister, his thin lips pressed into a sharp line. His black robes hung loosely over his shoulders, revealing the deep contours of his waist and abdomen.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend.

Given another chance, Xie Lingyue tossed aside her blade and beckoned to her former junior brother.

She decided to turn him from an enemy into... her husband, right then and there.

Reader's guide:

Proud, slow-to-realize moonlight heroine x rebellious, devoted Asura

1. My take on cultivation. Not a strong-female-lead story. Revenge on scumbags from her former sect, leveling up, and falling in love.

2. The whole sect will face a crematorium. One-on-one, sweet and satisfying romance. Both leads are each other's first.

3. The leads save each other. The original male lead will regret everything.

4. The male lead has had a crush on the heroine from the start and loves only her from beginning to end.

★1. After the Cannon-Fodder Heroine and the Proud Chosen One Switch Bodies: Blurb

Song Yanyan transmigrated into a cannon-fodder heroine in a male-oriented story about a proud chosen one.

In the book, the Hehuan Sect's good-for-nothing young mistress, who shared her name, loved nothing but reading stories. Her doting sect leader kidnapped the male lead, Yan Ci, to help her cultivate. Yan Ci's meridians were shattered and his cultivation sealed. He and Song Yanyan were tossed into a secret realm, which they could only escape once Song Yanyan reached the Golden Core stage.

After a year of intensive cultivation, the restrictions on the secret realm lifted. Yan Ci was rescued, raised his sword to massacre the Hehuan Sect, then imprisoned Song Yanyan in a dungeon and tortured her to death.

When Song Yanyan opened her eyes, the young sword cultivator had already been tied up and pinned to a tree.

Looking at the future god, his eyes full of menace, Song Yanyan swallowed. "This secret realm has a restriction. Let's hurry. If you help me reach the Golden Core stage, we can break out."

She'd already made up her mind. The moment they escaped the secret realm, she'd run for it.

Before she could finish speaking, thunder boomed and a bolt of lightning fell from the sky. The world spun, and Song Yanyan and Yan Ci switched bodies.

Her clothes were in the hands of "Song Yanyan," who wore a faint smile and gave her a sharp look.

"Hurry?"

*

After three months of effort from the cultivation fanatic, "Song Yanyan" reached the Golden Core stage.

On the day they escaped the secret realm, the Hehuan Sect Master patted his "daughter" on the head and said, "Now that you've reached the Golden Core stage, kill Yan Ci before the Wan Jian Sect finds out. The Wan Jian Sect holds grudges."

Tie him up, humiliate him, and then kill him?

No sooner had he spoken than the young mistress, who usually despised romance, sneered and threw her arms around the young sword cultivator.

"Song Yanyan" gritted her teeth and declared with heartfelt sincerity, "We love each other. I want to become his cultivation partner."

"Yan Ci," with a heart dead and the air of someone ready to die, replied, "...That's right."

*

Later on...

The young master of the Wan Jian Sect, who originally couldn't read a single character, gently advised his fellow disciples and casually revealed his outstanding literary talent.

The lazy, good-for-nothing young mistress of the Hehuan Sect stood up for the weak with her sword and casually revealed her talent for swordsmanship.

Love slowly makes you resemble the other person. People throughout the cultivation world started shipping them, cheering that they were just too sweet.

★2. The Demon Venerable Regrets His Past: Blurb

I died on a snowy night, as the Demon Realm's vast army trampled the moonlight across Mount Penglai.

My family had guarded Penglai for generations, and I was prepared to live and die alongside all the people in this immortal realm.

There was only one person I couldn't stop worrying about: my innocent mortal husband.

Jiang Ye was perfect in every way, except that he never smiled at me.

I thought he was simply cold by nature, until one night I saw him leave the mountain and walk smiling toward a woman.

That's when I learned he already had someone in his heart.

I had been reluctant to leave him, but now a traitor had appeared in Penglai, and it was about to fall. Before I died, I wanted to find him and set him free.

But as the formation broke, I looked up and saw the Demon Venerable.

Our eyes met. In that moment, I finally understood why I hadn't been able to find him anywhere on the mountain.

*

A hundred years later, my soul was restored.

By then, I learned that the Demon Lord Jiang Ye had gone mad and was searching everywhere for women who looked like me.

I laughed. Could anyone really look more like me than I did?

Once he falls in love with me, it will be time for my revenge.

On our wedding night, I walked toward him with my sword. He opened his arms to me and laughed hoarsely. "I've waited so many years for you to kill me."

I raised my sword and ran it straight through him, just as he wished.

[The young master of Penglai, who paid dearly for her naivety, x the deranged Demon Lord]

1. Told in third person.

2. Not a leveling story. A dramatic groveling-for-love story.

3. Both leads are each other's first. Happy ending.

★3. Don't Listen, Don't Listen, Just Lie Flat: Blurb

Jiang Miao transmigrated into a book and became the villainous supporting heroine in a sweet xianxia romance.

In the book, Jiang Miao was a cat demon with mediocre magic. She worked hard to cling to the male lead and get close to him, framing and bullying the female lead, all so she could marry the male lead, gain power, and ascend to immortality.

In the end, the male and female leads realized their feelings for each other, joined forces to give her a face-slapping, and left her to die horribly.

The supporting heroine's comeback System forced Jiang Miao to follow the plot, but she refused.

Don't listen, don't listen. Just lie flat.

According to the plot, Jiang Miao was supposed to poison a roast chicken meant for the female lead and ruin her looks.

Jiang Miao simply started eating. Why poison it? Wouldn't it taste better if she ate it herself?

According to the plot, Jiang Miao was supposed to sneak into the male lead's room, drug him, and throw herself into his arms.

Jiang Miao simply went to sleep. What a ridiculous idea. The weather was so nice, it was perfect for a nap.

In the end, because Jiang Miao was so lazy, the male and female leads got together without a hitch.

Her stepmother decided Jiang Miao was useless and planned to offer her to Murong Zhui, a demonic cultivator who killed without batting an eye.

Murong Zhui had no interest in romance and spent every day proving his Dao through killing. Everyone thought she wouldn't survive three days.

In reality, Jiang Miao spent her days eating and sleeping in the Demon Realm, reading stories when she had time and trying out new spells when she was bored.

The System was exasperated: With your cultivation, you'll live at most another five hundred years before dying of old age.

Jiang Miao, sprawled on her bed, sprang up like a carp. What? I can still be happy for another five hundred years?

Murong Zhui was single-mindedly focused on becoming stronger, always challenging stronger enemies.

After becoming cultivation partners with Jiang Miao, he gained a new daily task: taking care of the kitty.

He had to give the kitty the freshest meat, the sweetest water, and the softest bed.

The lazy life was too wonderful. One night, Jiang Miao looked sadly at Murong Zhui, who was chopping catnip with a kitchen knife, and sighed. "This kitty here is going to die in five hundred years."

Murong Zhui didn't even look up. He gave a cold laugh. "You think I've been feeding you divine beast meat and spiritual spring water for nothing?"

A romance-focused, sweet and doting story. Around two hundred thousand characters. Both leads are each other's first.

Theme: Embrace a better version of yourself.
