Raising a Dao Companion from an Egg (Transmigrating into a Book)

A pitiful, sweet-on-the-outside, dark-on-the-inside female cultivator x an all-powerful summoned tortoise spirit

Also known as: "I Got a Wife After Hiding the Demon Lord's Secret Identity," "I Was Fooled by My Frail Little Sister, the Paragon of Justice," "My Little Sister Gave Me All the Lucky Treasures as Her Betrothal Gifts," and "My Dream Came True While I Was Dreaming"...

Xu Jiamiao transmigrates into the cultivation novel she just finished reading. The good news: she knows the plot. The bad news: she has become an egg belonging to an inconspicuous female cultivator, and that egg gets killed off in chapter one.

Luckily, the young cultivator beside her protects her. To survive, even as an egg, she has to work hard and improve! But after all that effort, when she finally hatches, why is she a little tortoise?! Wait, she seems pretty strong!

To repay the kindness of the female cultivator Shen Xiaoyu, Xu Jiamiao has no choice but to stick close and protect her. She gets the protagonists' treasures every time they go on a mission, but Shen Xiaoyu keeps getting kidnapped by demons.

Xu Jiamiao has no choice but to stay by her side every moment. After all, she's so weak and so unlucky.

But the longer Xu Jiamiao protects her, the more something seems to change.

On a moonless night thick with fog, Shen Xiaoyu stands in a simple, flimsy robe, her eyes clear and innocent. "Egg... Sister, I'm scared..." Her voice is soft, timid, and aggrieved.

Xu Jiamiao stares blankly for a moment, then pats the spot beside her. "It's okay. I'll protect you, don't be scared." As spring dreams grow more frequent, leaving no trace, she presses a hand to her racing heart and curses herself. "...Damn it. Xiaoyu is so innocent. How could I..."

Later, who could have guessed that she, who had devoted herself selflessly to the sect, would be pushed forward as a sacrifice when the prophesied calamity arrived...

Even more unbelievable, Shen Xiaoyu, who usually tugged at her sleeve and hid behind her, pitifully calling her "Sister Xu," steps in front of her, the Heaven-Slaying Sword in her hand wreathed in eerie flames. "If you dare touch my Sister Xu, you'd better be ready to go to hell!"

Can you believe it? The frail little sister is actually the terrifying Demon Lord everyone fears?!

Afterward, Shen Xiaoyu kidnaps her. Inside a grand and magnificent hall, she weeps with red eyes. "Sister, do you not like me anymore?"

Xu Jiamiao: "I do. Don't cry..." You were so formidable just a moment ago.

Shen Xiaoyu: "If that's the case, Sister, our parents have arranged our marriage, so let's get married soon."

No one knows that Shen Xiaoyu was reborn. As the orphan of the savior, everything she had, including her talent, was stolen from her. The egg she summoned was the only thing that belonged to her.

After years of plotting, she ended up falling for an egg. For Xu Jiamiao alone, she willingly gave up everything, endured torment, entered the demonic path, and made an enemy of the world.

All she wanted was to stay by her side.
