After I Became the Protagonist’s Inner Demon

[It’s recommended to open the author’s notes. There are occasional bonus scenes, announcements, and the like, which make for a better reading experience~] Xiao Mo accidentally transmigrated into a book and became the protagonist’s inner demon. The System eagerly explained, “You need to accompany Chu Jinglan as he grows, then let him kill you at the right moment to prove his Dao. Once the mission is complete, you’ll get a chance to be reborn and survive in the cultivation world under a new identity. Sounds like a great deal, doesn’t it?” Who could have guessed that Xiao Mo would hear it out, close his eyes, and lie flat. “Read it. Not doing it. He can die for all I care.” System: ??? Where did this rebellious Host come from? This isn’t what we agreed on! Xiao Mo thought he was terribly unlucky. Not only had he been forced to transmigrate, he also had to be the inner demon of someone he disliked and stay with him day and night. That’s right, Xiao Mo didn’t like Chu Jinglan’s character. In the original story, Chu Jinglan could have followed the classic overpowered hero’s path: a once-in-a-generation genius whose cultivation was crippled, only to be reborn and wield his sword across the world. Instead, he died without a body left behind for a fickle heartthrob adored by everyone. Xiao Mo had thought he was getting a satisfying career-focused story, only to be blindsided by a faceful of melodramatic angst. He gave it a firm thumbs-down. He would slack off and watch from the sidelines. Whatever happened to Chu Jinglan had nothing to do with him. He coldly watched the youth fall from a heaven-blessed prodigy to a cripple. He coldly watched him get his engagement broken off and suffer humiliation. He coldly watched everyone turn against him. He coldly watched, and couldn’t keep watching any longer! “Chu Jinglan, you’re seriously going to put up with all this!? Get your revenge! If you can’t do it, give me control of your body and I’ll do it!” Chu Jinglan, who had always found Xiao Mo just as unbearable, wiped away the blood. Seeing that his inner demon was more worked up than he was, he gave him a complicated look. “...Do I need my inner demon to help me?” Xiao Mo scoffed. Who said he wanted to help you? And yet this inner demon, who supposedly “didn’t care at all” whether the protagonist lived or died, stayed by Chu Jinglan’s side as he rebuilt his cultivation, returned to the heights of power, and made it through the hardest days of his life. Then, just as Chu Jinglan achieved fame and success, Xiao Mo died in his arms. As Xiao Mo lay in Chu Jinglan’s arms, coughing up blood, he thought that once he was reborn, he would stay far away from him. After he was reborn, before he even had a chance to run, Chu Jinglan, now an Immortal Venerable, appeared before him without warning. “Xiao Mo,” Immortal Venerable Chu said, his gaze calm yet touched with madness. “Where are you planning to leave me behind and go this time?” Xiao Mo: ! Wait, I even changed identities. How did you recognize me?? One-on-one, happy ending. From childhood frenemies who secretly adore each other to soulmates who stand by each other through thick and thin, bound to stay together forever.

Historical danmei: The Villainous Daoist Companion of the Overpowered Hero Shen Ciqiu is the senior disciple of Yuxian Sect, stunningly beautiful and exceptionally gifted. He treats those around him with sincerity, yet unlike his sweet and adorable junior brother, he isn’t well-liked. Instead, people gradually distance themselves from him and turn their backs on him. To save the junior brother, his master, junior brother, and fiancé not only carved out his immortal bone, they even wanted to cut out his heart. Shen Ciqiu refused. With nowhere left to turn, he destroyed his own heart meridians and died. Reborn once more, Shen Ciqiu quietly went mad and thought to himself, I want them dead. Reborn on the day of his political marriage, Shen Ciqiu no longer followed the arrangement. He chose a new fiancé himself: Xie Ling, a notorious good-for-nothing in the cultivation world and a prince of the demon clan. Once a genius, Xie Ling had fallen into ruin and was struggling to survive. He was forced to form an alliance with Shen Ciqiu. After suffering betrayal again and again, Shen Ciqiu no longer trusted anyone. He thought coldly, I’m only using him and taking advantage of him. I can throw him away whenever I want. But when Xie Ling collapsed into his arms, hovering near death, Shen Ciqiu realized his hands were shaking. Xie Ling wiped his face and spoke between coughs of blood. “...Don’t cry.” Shen Ciqiu stared blankly. “...Am I crying?” * Xie Yi transmigrated into a book as its protagonist. Shen Ciqiu was the unforgivably evil villain, destined to die at his hands according to the plot. When an engagement suddenly landed in his lap, Xie Ling saw stars. Oh no, the plot’s gone off the rails! Would he end up dying at the hands of the ruthless villain first? But as they spent time together, Xie Ling realized that Shen Ciqiu was clearly a beautiful, strong, and tragic person who had been victimized. How could he bring himself to hurt him now? Not only could he not kill him, he gradually found himself drawn to him and wanted to become his Daoist companion. Xie Yi knew he was destined to face a deadly trial, so he told Shen Ciqiu in advance, “I’ll definitely come back to life. Wait for me. Don’t worry.” Shen Ciqiu: “...Who would worry about you?” Xie Yi felt reassured and calmly closed his eyes to die for a while. But when he was reborn through fire, he realized something was terribly wrong. Oh no, his darling seemed even more unhinged now. Wasn’t he supposed to not worry?? One-on-one, happy ending. The overpowered younger hero is the gong, and the beautiful, strong, and tragic villain is the shou. A revenge-driven romance with plenty of satisfying moments. Two young men go from mistrusting each other to giving each other their hearts, finding the same destination by different paths. [Preview of upcoming stories.

Historical danmei: They All Went Mad After the Hated Man Faked His Death Lan Weiyu transmigrated into a book and became someone everyone hated. No matter what he did, everyone despised him. Even the senior brother who had once promised to marry him could only look at him with disgust. But regardless of how the people around him treated him, Lan Weiyu diligently carried out his mission and continued to treat them well. The mission rewards were just that good. Still, whenever he couldn’t help feeling sad, he would go talk to a junior disciple at the spirit beast garden. That junior disciple was the only person who didn’t dislike him. After three years, Lan Weiyu completed his mission and cheerfully went to his death, reclaiming his own body. He went from an insignificant extra back to a breathtakingly beautiful young man with the bearing of an immortal. He planned to slip away quietly, but the young lord of the demon clan arrived at Xuantian Sect with an army at his back, forcing the sect to seal its mountain. Lan Weiyu had no choice but to hide among the crowd and wait for an opportunity. But when he looked up, he realized... the young lord of the demon clan looked exactly like the junior disciple from the spirit beast garden! The young lord of the demon clan arrived at Xuantian Sect and demanded that they honor their betrothal. Everyone assumed he was there to take Bai Rou, the beauty who ranked first in the cultivation world, and braced themselves for the worst. But the handsome young lord ground his teeth and asked, “Where have you hidden Lan Weiyu!?” He didn’t want the world’s most beautiful person. He wanted only Lan Weiyu, whose looks were utterly ordinary and who had become a cripple due to injury, yet remained pure-hearted and kind. Lan Weiyu stood frozen among the crowd for a long time. Then he pressed his lips together, stepped forward, and pulled back his cloak. “A Lang, I’m right here.” The young man’s breathtaking beauty astonished everyone present. The young lord of the demon clan, however, flew into a rage. “Who dares impersonate him? I’ll, ” Lan Weiyu cut in, “You like the fruit from the second tree on the left in the spirit beast garden, your favorite one to pet is Little White, and you like playing with my hair ribbon. Should I keep going?” The young lord’s eyes instantly reddened, and he trembled slightly. “...Weiyu?” Lan Weiyu smiled. “It’s me.” The young lord swept him into his arms, embracing the treasure he had lost and found again. Lan Weiyu was focused entirely on the young lord and failed to notice how everyone from his sect had changed expression. He didn’t know that after his death, the people of his sect had finally remembered how good he had been, and all of them had gone mad over him. One-on-one, happy ending. The shou is hated by everyone at first, then adored by everyone; the gong is the young lord of the demon clan. A story of two young men who find true affection when they have nothing, then walk forward together at the summit: they share hardship and then share happiness.
