The Villainess's Guide to Self-Rescue [Book Transmigration]

A clear-headed, decisive transmigrator heroine × a tsundere, fastidious junior disciple who's secretly ruthless

Blurb:

Wen Lan transmigrates into a book, becoming the vicious supporting female character in an old-school cultivation novel.

She loves the senior disciple but cannot win his affection, so she keeps framing the heroine.

To seize the sect leader's position, she ruthlessly turns on her junior disciple.

In the end, her darkened junior disciple pierces her collarbones with a pair of soul-locking hooks, gouges out her eyes, extracts her spinal cord, and imprisons her in magma, where she suffers the agony of being burned by flames day after day.

Faced with this ending, Wen Lan decides to pack up and run.

System: [Dear Host, deviating from the plot will be considered a violation.]

Wen Lan: What happens if I violate the rules?

System: [The Host will be drawn into a black hole, and your consciousness will remain in this space forever.]

Wen Lan: So I'll become an unconscious NPC.

System: [That's right.]

Wen Lan: ...

To save her own life, Wen Lan decides to follow a survival guide.

① She must maintain the original main plot.

② She must bring the hero and heroine together.

③ She must win over the villainous junior disciple before he turns evil.

Number ③ is especially important. She has to cling to the villain's coattails!!!

Wen Lan brings her junior disciple some soup.

The next day, the senior disciple returns the bowl, clicking his tongue. "Use less salt next time."

Wen Lan asks her junior disciple to practice swordplay with her.

That night, her master throws the note to the ground and looks at her with exasperation. "If you don't advance, you'll fall behind. With skills like these, you dare challenge your master? Copy the sword manual ten times before you even think of going back to rest."

Wen Lan blocks Xue Wuhen, eyes wide with anger. "What's wrong with you? Why do you keep giving other people the things I give you?"

Xue Wuhen's face is as cold as frost. He replies icily, "I think you're the one who's seriously ill, Senior Sister. In all of the vast Tianheng Sect, why do you insist on following me day and night? What exactly are you after?"

Wen Lan answers without hesitation, "You, of course."

Xue Wuhen freezes, staring at her with a strange expression. He stumbles back a few steps, then turns and hurries away.

???

Wen Lan is baffled. "Am I really that unpleasant?"

Reading guide:

① One-on-one romance, happy ending. There's humor and a few bittersweet moments (the deeper the love, the sharper the pangs), but the ending is sweet! Sweet! Sweet!

② At first, the heroine pursues the hero for a specific purpose. The hero suspects from the beginning that someone has taken over her body, but deliberately pretends not to know.

③ The senior disciple and the original heroine are the destined couple. The original heroine doesn't lose her good fortune, and the two girls get to shine together.

④ The characters' values follow the story's direction. Please don't conflate them with the author's own views.

Theme: Never give up. Anything is possible.
