I Messed Up After Saving the Beautiful but Tragic One

[My new story next door, I Thought I Got the Protagonist's Halo [Infinite], is now being serialized. Please bookmark my upcoming stories: I Only Want to Encounter the Supernatural, I Refuse to Become Everyone's Favorite; After My Account Was Stolen, I Was Forced to Become a Cultivation Bigshot; The Phoenix Returns to the Palace (Reborn).]

(One-line introduction: A heroine who is determined to help her tragically fated disciples defy destiny and change their fates in order to use up her fortune × a villainous hero who can regain his power as soon as his tragic stand-ins die.)

After spiritual qi revival began on Blue Star, Rong Chengyue devoted herself to cultivation with the help of the System. Just as she was about to reach the pinnacle of her cultivation and life, she transmigrated to a cultivation world where spiritual qi had all but vanished.

The System said that she still had some fortune left to use up in this world, and could only return once it was gone.

The fastest way to use up one's fortune would be to do evil, but the cultivation method she practiced forbade it.

She had heard that being a master was a high-risk profession in the cultivation world, so she took in three disciples with tragic fates and forced their destinies to change, hoping to use up her fortune that way.

Her eldest disciple was born blind, endured endless abuse as a slave, and was destined for a miserable life?

Blue Star medicine to the rescue. Treating injuries and serving up face-slapping, that's my specialty.

Her second disciple had been framed, imprisoned in the sect's dungeon to serve as a human test subject, and was destined for a life of suffering?

If you're going to throw your weight around with your sect rank, then I'll blow up the prison if you don't release him.

Her third disciple was gravely ill, thrown into a death zone as a living sacrifice, and was destined not to live to adulthood?

I'll block the heavenly tribulation, and I'll take on the King of Hell himself.

After all that, her fortune was finally used up. She waited to die and return to Blue Star, only to discover that her three disciples were no ordinary people.

Her eldest disciple became the Profound Venerable War God and repaid her fortune a hundredfold.

Her second disciple became the Medicine King and Medicine Sage, extending her life by ten thousand years.

Her third disciple rose to become Heaven's Will and offered her all the power of the Heavenly Dao.

After all that effort, Rong Chengyue not only failed to die, but ended up with even more fortune...

.

Pei Lan was once a great villain who destroyed seven worlds. The Primordial God sealed him in this world to await his death.

He used every last bit of his strength to create three tragic stand-ins to bear his heavenly tribulations for him. Once they died, he would be able to break free.

But when he woke at the appointed time, he discovered that his stand-ins weren't dead at all. They were doing quite well.

At first, he planned to quietly dispose of them.

Later...

"Master, would you be willing to help me resolve this love trial?"

[Upcoming story: The Phoenix Returns to the Palace (Reborn)]

Luo Yanhe was the emperor's personal poison tester and the granddaughter of the Imperial Tutor. She was showered with favor and stood above everyone else.

She loved the Third Prince with all her heart, but he deceived her into believing that the emperor had destroyed her family. She secretly poisoned the emperor to help the prince seize the throne.

She got her wish and married the man she loved, becoming empress. But the new emperor, busy with state affairs, treated her coldly in the Phoenix Hall, while the female physician she had trained became pregnant with his child.

In the end, she died miserably in the Cold Palace, her body wrapped in nothing but a straw mat.

Not long after her death, a plague broke out and foreign enemies invaded. It was the former crown prince, Wen Zhichong, who had been demoted, who turned the tide, saved Great Ying from disaster, and reclaimed the throne.

He was also the one who gathered and buried her remains. When no one was around at night, he murmured her name and stayed awake until dawn.

That year, the usually gentle crown prince ordered the execution of the Third Prince's entire household and that of the female physician.

After being reborn, Luo Yanhe returned to the age of sixteen.

At that time, she was still the highly favored Apothecary of the Nation.

The emperor's words, "Our Yanhe is going to be empress one day," sounded like a joke, but carried the weight of an emperor's solemn promise.

Everyone thought the emperor was warning the crown prince and hinting that the most favored Third Prince, the one Luo Yanhe loved, was the strongest contender for the throne.

The crown prince standing nearby darkened with disappointment.

Then Luo Yanhe replied, "I think Crown Prince Brother is wonderful, too."
