Xi Xuehan transmigrates into a melodramatic romance novel. She's neither the righteous heroine nor the wicked female antagonist, but the human form of the story's purifying artifact, the Snow Soul Pearl: a pitiful little cannon-fodder girl who suffers from beginning to end!
System: You're in charge of the original story's tragic love subplot. Your mission is to win over the future big bad, willingly purifying his demonic nature with your own flesh and blood. He tortures you a thousand times, but you love him as if it were the first. You take hits for him, suffer abuse, miscarry, have abortions, and so on...
Xi Xuehan: ? Go on.
System: Ahem! In the end, your heart turns to ashes. You make a heroic sacrifice for the greater good, and the heroine takes you as her personal magical artifact to help her break through and level up! The evil antagonist is moved by his belated love, his mind goes blank in an instant, and the righteous hero and heroine join forces to kill him with their swords!
Xi Xuehan: And then?
System: Then your mission is over, and you can go back to the modern world. Isn't it simple?
At that, the bloodstained girl stood up. A smile tugged at her pale, lovely lips as she said softly, "Yes. Simple."
Far too simple.
She walked slowly toward the pitch-black dungeon and let the endless darkness swallow her.

In the dark prison, the girl rolled up her sleeves. Bite marks and scars crisscrossed her arms.
Without changing expression, she poked the boy's cheek. "You've bitten me so many times. Isn't it my turn to bite you once?"
The demon's son, barely clinging to life: "?"
"I'll set you free after one bite."
Xi Xuehan chuckled. How hard could it be to win him over?
Her eyes lowered to his cracked lips, and she slowly leaned toward him...
The scent of blood spread...
She consumed the demon's flesh and blood, and her divine heart was corrupted. With a single thought, Xi Xuehan fell into demonic ways!
What a shame. The System picked the wrong person. She would never be anyone's dog, forced to obey!

The boy stared at her in a daze, his mind hazy, as she released him from the immortal sect's prison. At last, he saw daylight again.
From that day on, she was the only light and fire in his life: burning and dazzling, yet distant and indifferent.
Unforgettable. Never to be erased.
Later, he asked, "...Sister, could you bite me again?"
Xi Xuehan smiled faintly without answering. This was the script she wanted.
#I'm telling you, you're not the problem. The laws of heaven are broken!#
#Let's fight our way out and become the greatest villains! Together, we'll defy this damned world inside a book!#
Note:
The heroine falls into demonic ways. She's no traditional good person: she does what she believes is right and doesn't like following the rules.
Because the heroine's flesh and blood have purifying properties, her sect initially throws her to the male lead to be bitten and used to feed his demonic nature. That's not the only reason for the male lead's change of heart, but there's only so much I can fit in the blurb.
(For now, this is roughly the plan. I may make small adjustments or add more later.)
