The Whole World Fears My Dark Side

I'm short on ability and can't manage two updates a day. This one has me stuck, so I'm putting it aside for now. Think of it as a novel that's still in the works, though I've already finished the outline. I'll come back and finish it later, I swear this one won't be abandoned!

Also known as "Everyone Wants to Reform Me," "Everyone Has a System Except Me," and "My Daoist Partner Has Sooooo Many Secret Identities"

In her previous life, Jiang Shi was gifted and kind to everyone. In the end, everyone turned against her: they ripped out her Daoist bones, destroyed her cultivation, and ground her to dust. Given an unexpected second chance, she no longer trusts anyone. Like an evil spirit crawling back from hell, all she wants is to trample the entire cultivation world underfoot, one step at a time. She'll take revenge on those who wronged her, and repay those who've helped her... Oh, she hasn't actually been helped by anyone.

But things don't seem to be going the way she expected?

When she first joined the sect, she remembered that her master had made her stand in the snow for an entire day, then hurled scalding hot water right into her face.

Master: "My dear disciple, have some hot tea to warm yourself. I've prepared these pills, cultivation manuals, and spirit weapons for you."

?

At the sect's small tournament, she remembered that her senior brother had been jealous of her talent, deliberately drugged her so she'd miss the event, and then insulted her lowly birth.

Senior Brother: "Little Junior Sister, come here! Take these spirit herbs. I've prepared lots of surprises for you. You're the coolest person in my eyes!"

??

During an expedition into a secret realm, she remembered that the young sect master of an allied sect had falsely accused her of colluding with the demonic path to steal his spirit beast. Then she'd had her spiritual root destroyed and been expelled from her sect.

Young Sect Master: "You have a kind face, Immortal Maiden. Please accept this spirit beast as a gift."

???

And then there was her dear senior sister. She'd been gentle and forgiving at every turn, yet personally pushed Jiang Shi into the abyss, stepping on her bones on her way to the peak of the cultivation world. Jiang Shi looked at the young girl before her, smiling shyly, her eyes full of trust...

+++++++++++++++ Jiang Shi: Things are getting interesting ^_^

The transmigrators and reborn characters wearing their enemies' faces asked the World-Saving System: "Hey, I've been so nice to her. Why hasn't the protagonist's corruption level dropped even one point?"

System: "Let me teach you. When she smiles, it means she wants to kill someone. The happier she looks, the faster her corruption level rises~"

#Bonus Scene#

At the Ten Thousand Demons Abyss, the "righteous cultivators" forced Jiang Shi to hand over the spirit fruit and jump down. "As you wish. I'll jump, but that person has to come with me."

She smiled and pointed to a mysterious figure in the corner who had betrayed her.

The male lead, wearing the identity of a cannon-fodder lackey: (O_O?)

System: "Your acting is so bad, you've been found out."

Jiang Shi: "Switch to your main account and talk."

++++++++++ A female lead who's obsessed with unmasking her partner's secret identities and is occasionally a little unhinged x a somewhat naive male lead

To sum up the System-novel setup: the side characters get the world-saving System, the male lead gets the role-playing System, and the male lead is everywhere. Find him yourselves (not really).

■Reader's Guide●:

1. The female lead goes from black to gray to white. She's not exactly a good person and is a bit ruthless, so don't read if that's not your thing.

2. The romance comes later, and the male lead has little presence early on.

3. The characters' values don't represent the author's. The characters aren't particularly smart, so don't read if that's not your thing.
