A major rewrite is coming later OVO
[Please add my upcoming xianxia novel in the same series to your collection: "The Demon Lord's Redemption Progress Is Negative One Hundred Percent." The blurb is at the very bottom.]
Feng Shen is a young phoenix on the verge of adulthood. One day, he wakes up to discover that not only has he transmigrated a thousand years into the future, he's also become a scruffy little bird just seven inches tall.
My home! My feathers! Where's my magnificent body?!
He's now an ugly bird forced to start over.
Who would have thought that times had fallen so far that a dignified phoenix couldn't even get a decent meal? After spending days as a beggar and taking one blow to his pride after another, he finally headed to Fengqi Sect, which was supposedly the sort of place where you could eat your fill.
By day, Feng Shen slacks off in class at the sect. By night, he turns back into a phoenix and sneaks around stealing vegetables to eat.
Before long, rumors and complaints spread through the sect, and there was no peace to be had.
Feng Shen hid quietly among the disciples, afraid to say a word, with spirit herbs stolen from the sect leader's vegetable garden the night before still in his mouth.
Then one day, his secret was exposed. The sect leader caught him by the tail feathers, and he was still holding a meat bun he'd just stolen from the dining hall in his beak.
Caught red-beaked.
He'd expected to be tortured, but instead Yan Hui asked in confusion, "Where did this little chicken come from?"
What chicken?! Your whole family are chickens! You blind human!
New chapters every night at nine. If there's no update by midnight at the latest, I'll post a notice.
Content warnings:
1. Feng Shen will turn back into a two-meter-tall phoenix later on. At first, he's still a scruffy little bird.
2. This is a light, palate-cleansing story. Please don't offer unsolicited advice. If you drop it, there's no need to tell me. Let's all be kind in the comments.
3. A comedic slice-of-life story, with no angst and a happy ending.
4. Feng Shen (pronounced the same as Shen) is the phoenix shou, and Yan Hui is the gong.
5. Given his background, Feng Shen is not exactly a naive sweetheart. He loves and hates fiercely. He may not seem very bright in everyday life, but when trouble strikes, he's the most reliable one around. If that's not your thing, please click away. Thanks.
6. The original title was "The Sect's Chicken-Raising Program."
"The Demon Lord's Redemption Progress Is Negative One Hundred Percent"
Unlucky Ni Suiwan transmigrates into a book.
The good news: It's a book he wrote himself!
The bad news: The plot has gone so far off the rails that even the author doesn't recognize it.
The arrogant male lead, who was supposed to have become the foremost figure among the righteous immortal sects, is rumored to be dead. His body hasn't even been found.
Ni Suiwan: ...I've been set up.
He transmigrates into the body of a frail, insignificant character in an immortal sect. He's out of breath after three steps and coughing after five, and somehow he's even been delivered straight to the Demon Lord, a man who kills without batting an eye.
Just then, his System finally arrives and assigns him a mission: [Use your love to redeem the Demon Lord!]
[Current mission progress: -100%]
The next moment, he watches the Demon Lord chop his subordinate into a thousand pieces, leaving no chance of putting him back together.
This strategy of yours... is there any chance I make it out alive?
Ni Suiwan wants to bang his head against the wall and die on the spot.
*
The Demon Realm is rife with conflict, and Ni Suiwan leads a life of trembling, precarious survival by the Demon Lord's side.
Ni Suiwan is as pale as snow. He often covers his mouth to cough softly, and even the breath that slips between his fingers carries the bitter scent of herbs. Whenever he sees something frightening, all he can do is tremble from head to toe.
Everyone thinks he won't last three days under the Demon Lord.
But one month passes... then two, then more than half a year. Not only is Ni Suiwan still alive, his complexion has even improved.
Still unsatisfied, the Demon Lord tosses a captured member of the righteous sects in front of him and says, "You're so timid and weak. Take a few more people and practice on them."
Ni Suiwan looks at the man in front of him, who bullied him just a few days ago: ...?
Who said the Demon Lord was a bloodthirsty monster? This is great!
Everyone: This isn't right!
The Demon Lord must have been possessed!
Theme: Protect animals and cherish life
Can you let the little bird go to school for me?
Is this the end? It feels strange to see it~~
Hahahahahahahaha why are you such a stupid bird?
It's obvious that the author is a bird lover, it's really hard to offend birds~
So is the protagonist called "Yan Hui" or "Yan Beiling"?
You must still have some in stock, right??
"The Joy Sutra is already big" gives the author a big worm ~
"Looking at it seems to be a big bug for the author~"
"There are still sects within sects" which is a big thorn in the side of the author~
"She" is a big thorn in the side of the author~ him
