Blurb:

System 999 put a woman who practiced swordsmanship into the body of a clueless sect master's daughter, then assigned it the task of raising her into the greatest female sword cultivator.

So it nervously opened the handbook for raising a female sword cultivator.

Rule one: She needs to have good natural talent.

Her spiritual root was stolen. Not an option.

Rule two: She needs plenty of cultivation resources.

She's on bad terms with her sect master father. Not an option.

Rule three: Her cultivation partner needs to be powerful.

He turned out to be her ex-fiance, and he's ugly too. Not an option.

Rule four: Find a big shot to back her.

System 999's eyes lit up. A pet-raising game had recently become popular in the immortal realm, so it put its Host's profile online and found a powerful big shot.

And so Ye Fan got an exceptional ice-type spiritual root, plenty of cultivation resources, and even a cultivation partner.

Ye Fan: Thanks a lot.

Cool, aloof heroine × cold-faced, doting hero

As a genius of an occult sect, Lin Xiang was skilled at fortune-telling, face-reading, and divining characters. One moment she was battling a vengeful ghost, and the next she accidentally transmigrated into a book and got a strange new job.

Talent agent.

Her company was dead last in the rankings, and her artists were so obscure they could barely be found. For every thousand fans, eight hundred were bots.

Lin Xiang raised an eyebrow, intrigued by her new profession.

How hard could it be for a genius like her to train a few artists?

What? You can't cry? Lin Xiang nodded. The Hundred-Eyed Hungry Ghost will watch tearjerkers with you every day.

What? You're a coward? Lin Xiang snapped her fingers. The vengeful ghost mother, who's been dead for a thousand years, will sing you lullabies every day.

What? You love to eat? Lin Xiang's eyes lit up. The red-clad starving ghost will eat with you every day.

A week later, a clip of a minor celebrity crying on a variety show went viral across the internet.

An audience member in the front row asked:

“Why has your acting improved so quickly? Your tears feel so real!”

The minor celebrity stared pensively into the camera. “Just thinking about vengeful ghosts makes me cry.”

Viewers watching online burst into laughter, thinking it was a joke.

But gradually, they realized that Lin Xiang's artists seemed to have completely transformed!

And they seemed to know a great deal about vengeful ghosts, with all the details to back it up.

A few years later, Lin Xiang's artists had all made big comebacks, and she had become a top talent agent.

A reporter asked:

“What's your secret?”

Lin Xiang rubbed her chin and smiled. “It's simple. Catch a few more vengeful ghosts and have them help with training.”

“Huh?!”

As a top talent agent, Gu Xiao managed popular artists, including a breakout star, a double Best Actress winner, and a newly risen top-tier star. Just as she thought she could lie flat and collect her share of the profits, she transmigrated into a book, becoming the real heiress whose life of luxury had been stolen by a fake heiress for over a decade.

According to the original story, she was supposed to fight with the fake heiress and put on a tearful scene in front of her biological parents.

But Gu Xiao simply pursed her lips and went straight to work at an entertainment company, taking up her old job as a talent agent.

Her business partner even found three young celebrities for her. When she opened the door and saw that all three were villains from the original book, she thought her luck had run out. But with a huge contract termination fee looming, she had no choice but to grit her teeth and get to work.

Gu Xiao: Damn it! I'm going to make them famous! They'll earn me a fortune!

So she took on several roles at once. Not only did she actively recommend her artists everywhere, she also became each one's biggest fan, editing videos, drawing fan art, and even writing fanfiction.

She sent the sharp-tongued man to The Great Debate, where he argued with everyone and delivered scathing commentary, gaining a huge following of female fans.

She sent the delicate, sweet girl who could cry on cue to I Am an Actor. Her Qiong Yao-style tears made directors rush to offer her scripts.

She sent the scheming, manipulative woman to the Screenwriting Competition, where she wrote the widely acclaimed Palace Intrigue, becoming a famous director.

The sharp-tongued man, seated on the judges' panel, declared, “My agent discovered my racial talent.”

The girl, who had won three major Best Actress awards, said, “My agent set me on the path to acting.”

The scheming woman, now holding a hit script, said, “My agent gave me a second chance at life.”

...One after another, her artists became huge stars. Soon, famous artists from other agencies were begging to join Gu Xiao's company, and fans from all over wrote to her every day, pleading with her to sign their favorite stars.

Even the fake heiress blinked and asked, “Big sister, when are you going to be my agent?”

Coming soon: Smart AI Goes Viral in an Interstellar Survival Game

Xia Mi never expected that even as a smart AI, she could transmigrate into another world. She ended up in the interstellar era, competing in an underground online livestream survival game where the winner would earn permanent residency on Global Star.

The other contestants included space pirates, prisoners, espers, and mecha pilots, each with their own special skills. Xia Mi was the only frail young woman, holding a scruffy little dog.

Xia Mi poked the intelligent orb in front of her. Seeing her senior's lightning-fast computing speed and enormous memory, she felt like an outdated knockoff AI. But as the most advanced smart AI of the twenty-second century, her mind was filled with five thousand years of human wisdom.

With medicine in her left hand, she felt pulses, gathered herbs, and treated the sick.

Livestream viewers: Please, a medical pod could handle that.

With the I Ching in her right hand, she read the stars and faces, and enjoyed a run of incredible luck.

Livestream viewers: Please, we don't believe in superstition in the interstellar age.

With China's culinary traditions in her head, she survived in the wilderness with a spatula in hand, frying, braising, and stir-frying to perfection.

Livestream viewers: That smells amazing! Big sister Xia Mi, save me a bite!

After an explosion during a journey, the prince of Wolfstar unexpectedly fell onto Global Star. To his utter disbelief, he had regressed to his juvenile form and become the pet of a weak woman.

Huo Yue'er felt deeply humiliated. He tried to escape several times, but failed. As far as Huo Yue'er was concerned, the woman before him was absolutely awful. She kept rubbing his belly, tempting him with delicious food, and collecting the fur from his shedding tail.

She said she was going to make a brush with it!!!

Those pretty-looking characters were all written with his fur!!!

He was furious!

He took human form and cornered the detestable woman against the wall. Xia Mi looked at the handsome stranger who had suddenly appeared, gripped her knife, and coldly threatened the despicable dog thief in front of her: “Give me back the puppy.”

Man: ??? I stole myself? And I'm a wolf!
