A carefree genius sword cultivator x a purehearted, tsundere fox spirit
Here's a recommendation for my friend's novel, I, the Wicked Stepmother of Fairy Tales by Yan Yu. The blurb is below.
[Blurb]
That day, beneath a tree, I looked up and saw a girl in a green robe.
Imprisoned and helpless, I begged her to save me, but she only looked away with indifference.
Yet when those people told her not to meddle, she drew her sword and stood against them for my sake.
Only later did I learn that she was rebellious to the core, unafraid of convention.
Though she came from a prestigious sect, she didn't see every demon as an enemy.
Though she loved money more than life, she would never compromise her principles for spirit stones.
Though she was rebellious and unruly, when she advised her friend that rather than rely on a good husband, she should build her sect into something great herself, the Manor Lady gave her a fierce scolding.
I wanted to go argue with that woman, but she rarely lost her temper. She stopped me and said that a change in circumstances could change one's thinking.
Only later did I understand that she wasn't defying convention. She was simply too pure-hearted.
She never hid her love or hate, and never got lost in grudges or romantic entanglements.
In her, I saw the person I had once wanted to become.
At first, I stayed by her side because I thought we could each get what we wanted.
But in the end, I wanted to join hands with her and make her dream come true.
"Little fox, all living beings are equal, with no distinction of rank. When insulted, do not yield. When faced with disaster, do not lose heart. Never fawn on wolves, jackals, tigers, or leopards. See yourself as a god."
In truth, I was very good at pretending.
I am not a kind person. I fear no confrontation and do not dread death, but after I met her...
She is the most beautiful sight in this world, and the sun in my heart.

--- I, the Wicked Stepmother of Fairy Tales by Yan Yu ---
Mo Li is bound to a System and forced to enter the story of Cinderella, where she becomes the wicked stepmother who separates Cinderella and the prince.
The System says that if she completes her mission, she can earn a ten-million-yuan reward.
Mo Li is thrilled.
"I'm an expert at playing wicked supporting characters. Do you want me to kill off the princess's whole family or the prince's?"
The System is shocked.
"We don't do murder and arson! You only need to break up the princess and the prince."
Mo Li looks at her beautiful and clever stepdaughter. The girl is always optimistic, always helping others, and forever coming up with ingenious ideas. Yet when faced with trouble, the only solution she can think of is marrying a prince.
Mo Li suddenly thinks, how is she a wicked stepmother breaking up a couple? She's clearly doing good deeds.
In short:
The princess's romance-addiction eradication plan: check.
Just stopping Cinderella from marrying the prince? No, no, no. Naturally, she'll use her nightingale-like voice to become the brightest rising star in the fairy-tale world.
Cinderella goes to every length to marry into the royal family? Actually, the prince is the one who can't have her!
She persuades the Little Mermaid to trade her voice for legs, then gain freedom through a sacrifice? No. Gaining true freedom doesn't mean she has to sacrifice herself for love or be trapped in a palace on land. Those aren't the only options.
If she gains power, she can not only claim freedom for herself, but share it with many others.
Is she jealous of Snow White's beauty, so she orders the huntsman to kill her? No. Beauty is worthless beside power.
She personally teaches the princess that if someone takes what belongs to her, she shouldn't wait for a prince's kiss to save her life. She can draw her own sword and take it all back.
Come on, Snow White. You'll become the kingdom's sole heir. She goes into the forest for one reason only: she needs the gold held by seven hardworking miners!
The princes and princesses are indeed separated one after another, but the baby System still feels that something is off. It just can't put its finger on what...
Theme: Having seen the vastness of the world, we still cherish the green of every blade of grass.
At night, Jiang Ling mysteriously climbed onto Xie Fuyu's stone bed and pointed at his abdominal muscles: "Sister, please feel it." Xie Fuyu was horrified: "What are you doing?" She poked it with her finger and found it was harder than usual. Unexpectedly, he took out a book from his clothes: "The popular Newspeak book "Why Are Female Supporters So Sick", which is popular among the people, has been ordered and pre-ordered by those who like it~"
"Excessive dressing up affects my speed of drawing the sword." Ayu refused to be kidnapped by the US military. Ayu is good
Thanks to the limited exemption, along the way, their wish finally came true
The female characters in this book are all very well portrayed. Jiang Xuan, Cancan and Jiang Shanyue are all flesh-and-blood characters with a strong sense of subjectivity. They get rid of the formulaic love brain/female competition/virgin tool person portrayal in many romances. Especially Jiang Shanyue, I like it so much. This kind of female character who refuses to admit defeat, has the brains and means and doesn't take love seriously is really eye-catching.
So awesome, so good at handling things
Why have I entered the painting again? When will I be able to paint it? Urgent
Hahahaha, I'm so good at telling stories, and I've got all the aspects covered.
The "189-year-old appearance" should really be the appearance of a young woman. Only those between 13 and 18 years old should be called "girls". . However, some niche systems will also refer to women around 20 years old as "girls". . Emm it's not impossible
Does Yaoguang like Fuyu? Wouldn't it be better if it was a simple master-disciple relationship (scratching my head)
I think the little fox is very brave. It is really difficult to persist in chasing love when he mistakenly believes that his lover belongs to him and that the person he loves is also very important to him. It is equivalent to defeating a dead Bai Yueguang. It is simply a hell level difficulty.
