Blurb:

Yue Zhao was the greatest sword cultivator in the cultivation world, admired by countless people.

Then one day, an anti-piracy System appeared in her mind and told her she was the original heroine of a villainess-reversal story.

Yue Zhao soon discovered that:

Her aloof, indifferent master looked at her with disappointment. "Your sword heart is impure. You're unworthy of being the greatest sword cultivator." He then turned around and instructed the villainess in swordsmanship.

The free-spirited young lord of Yuncheng glared at her resentfully. "You toyed with my feelings. You're not fit to compare with Lan'er." Then he turned around and doted on the villainess.

The gloomy, obsessive cult leader ground his teeth at her. "I joined the demonic sect for you, but you treated me like trash." Then he turned around and became the villainess's most devoted lackey.

The villainess, Mo Lan, had bound herself to a copy-and-paste System. She copied her own sword techniques and stole her own good fortune, living as a knockoff genius, while Yue Zhao became a pariah whom everyone wanted to hunt down.

Surrounded by the righteous sects and the demonic cult, Yue Zhao fled to a small village in the mortal realm and posed as a fake fortune-teller. The anti-piracy System came online just in time and showed off its many anti-piracy features:

The sword techniques copied from Yue Zhao made Mo Lan's meridians flow in reverse, nearly causing her to suffer cultivation deviation. Mo Lan wanted Yue Zhao's swordsmanship, but discovered that all she had gotten was a mediocre ability to tell fortunes, humiliating herself at the sect tournament. The talent Mo Lan had stolen earlier now required her to pay spirit stones to use.

The knockoff genius was reduced to a corporate drone, forced to work around the clock every day just to earn spirit stones.

Unfortunately, the anti-piracy System had a weakness too: it needed to absorb good fortune to activate. The only way to acquire it was to win over the male characters.

Looking at the men gathered around Mo Lan, Yue Zhao found them repulsive. Instead, she chose to pursue Huai Shunan, the Daoist heir whom every female cultivator held dear.

Yue Zhao kept trying to win over Huai Shunan, but he always rejected her. Just as she was lamenting her failed pursuit, thinking Huai Shunan was indeed an otherworldly immortal untouched by worldly desires, the System in her mind began rapidly tallying:

Good fortune +1. Good fortune +1. Good fortune +1...

Well, look at you. Turns out you've got two sides!

Huai Shunan had been named the Daoist heir at birth. He cultivated the art of the divine eye, practiced divination, and altered fate, peering into the secrets of heaven for the cultivation world.

The secrets of heaven could not be revealed. Huai Shunan had long known he was destined for an unhappy end, and he did not want to form ties with anyone.

Until disaster struck, and a woman in red stood in front of him, her sword cleaving through rolling thunder.

Huai Shunan had heard her name long ago: once the greatest sword cultivator of her age, now a red-clad demoness who had betrayed her sect: Yue Zhao.

New Book Blurb:

Can a Cannon-Fodder Villainess Become a Supreme Hero Too?

Lu Jiang transmigrated into a cultivation novel as a cannon-fodder villainess. According to the plot, she was supposed to fall hopelessly in love with the supreme hero male lead, trample the heroine and beat up the villainess, fight her way into the male lead's harem, and finally die saving him.

But Lu Jiang soon discovered that this supreme hero had also been transmigrated into the novel. He was also her scumbag ex-boyfriend. Thinking of that made her fists clench.

Sorry, but I'm taking over as the supreme hero.

Naturally, the Heavenly Dao wouldn't allow this. At a life-or-death moment, Lu Jiang discovered that the world was like a virtual reality game to her, and she could edit the attributes of all kinds of objects:

She added an attribute that let a kitchen knife cut through iron as if it were mud, turning it into a divine weapon.

She added a shield attribute to a disciple's uniform, letting it withstand repeated attacks from sword cultivators.

Gradually, Lu Jiang discovered that people's attributes could be changed too.

While the male lead was busy collecting opportunities and flirting with girls, Lu Jiang devoted herself to studying magical artifacts and accidentally made a fortune.

As for the scumbag male lead's harem, Lu Jiang said, "Hand it over!"

There was also Pei Zhuo, the beleaguered second male lead from the original story. Lu Jiang decided to get on his good side.

Later, the scumbag discovered Lu Jiang's identity and wanted to eliminate her before she became a threat.

But before he could act, he was surrounded by several powerful cultivators who had been out of the public eye for years.

"Senior masters, I have never offended any of you," the scumbag said warily.

The masters said nothing, just pinned him down and beat him up.

The scumbag shouted furiously, "Why are you all listening to her?!"

The masters fell silent. They couldn't help it. She'd offered them too much.

Lu Jiang often had heart-to-hearts with the second male lead, Pei Zhuo, and gave him some magical artifacts she'd made herself. One reason was to build a good relationship with him; the other was to let him test her artifacts.

One day, Lu Jiang and Pei Zhuo were talking about the black dragon that had once wreaked havoc. She couldn't help commenting:

"That black dragon was so stupid. He was already hopelessly in love, and he didn't even know how to keep a low profile. No wonder he got killed."

"Mm, you're right." Pei Zhuo smiled at Lu Jiang, then patted her on the head.

A status window appeared before Lu Jiang's eyes:

Name: Pei Zhuo

Identity: Black Dragon

Note: Final boss

"..." Tears spurted from Lu Jiang's eyes.

Question: What was your secret to winning over that arrogant, crazy, devastatingly handsome and tragic demon king?

Lu Jiang: I know this may be hard to believe, but I just added one sentence to his attributes: Pei Zhuo cannot kill Lu Jiang.

Theme: Persevere and work hard for yourself. Reject piracy
