Beauty Above All Under the Crown

Synopsis: [Dark Mary Sue revenge + conquest + a battle royale of competing men.] In a world where the Divine Court reigns supreme, currying favor with the powerful and trampling the weak, and the survival of the fittest are the only rules people can live by. To everyone else, Jin Shiyue is ugly, lowborn, and an ordinary girl incapable of cultivation. She is so weak that nearly eighty percent of the people in this world could crush her with ease, without paying any price. The day she was drowned in the lake was Jin Shiyue's sixteenth birthday. She watched helplessly as her family was killed and her village was slaughtered. The person behind it all was the amnesiac boy she had rescued in the wilderness and brought home three months earlier. As icy lake water filled her mouth and nose, Jin Shiyue learned his true identity: the most mysterious and willful grandson of the Divine Emperor of the capital's royal court. His three months of tenderness had been nothing but the perfect disguise he used to conceal his identity while vying for power. Beneath those compassionate, smiling eyes lay lofty contempt and murderous intent. * For a lowborn commoner to dream of taking revenge on the god who held the highest power in the land was nothing but a ridiculous joke. No one knew that, As she hovered on the brink of death, Jin Shiyue's overwhelming resentment and hatred left her wishing only to become a vengeful ghost after death and hunt him down. Unfortunately, she failed to become a vengeful ghost at the bottom of the lake. Instead, she unexpectedly gained a beauty beyond ordinary people's reach and came back to life... At the same time, she found a secret technique: if she could make her target fall in love with her, she could copy half of their cultivation... * Five years after returning from the dead, Jin Shiyue fell in the middle of the road, blocking the path of a young emperor riding at a gallop. He reined in his warhorse and looked down at her. His tall, upright figure and glinting armor made him impossible to look at directly. That night, she reached out a trembling hand to him... #This time, supreme royal power, piled high at its peak, finally met its floodwater, while a blade of grass slipped into the burrow. Reading Notes: The heroine is unbelievably, unbelievably, unbelievably beautiful!!! The male lead is not the official endgame. A supporting male character will take the lead, and the official pairing is undecided. There are many male supporting characters, and all of them have one-sided feelings for her. A conquest story, not a strong heroine story. A powerful golden finger, with lots of original worldbuilding~ Separator The main story of the author's other novel, How Could She Not Love Me, is complete, and extras are being updated... Synopsis: As the villainess in Immortal Path, who loves the male lead so madly she becomes obsessed, Jiu Wu awakens. She knows she will eventually love the male lead so much that she goes astray, betrays the immortal sect, becomes a Demon God hunted by everyone, and is finally slain by the righteous immortal sects. Her end will be tragic, and she will never be reincarnated. System: Hurry up and reform. Become a good person and change your ending. When the Villainess Comeback System bound itself to her, it had no idea Jiu Wu wasn't normal. Her thinking was extreme, and she was a complete lunatic. After learning how her story ends, she would only go even crazier... * At the start of the story, Jiu Wu is the only junior sister of Xuan Yi, the sect's young master. She has extraordinary talent and an exceptional spiritual root. Humble and gentle, she can draw everyone's attention just by sitting quietly. Everyone's, that is, except Xuan Yi's. That proud young man is a heaven's favorite, blessed with every advantage. He is willful, arrogant, and looks down on everyone. Jiu Wu knows he hates her. But Jiu Wu likes him all the same, like a monster peeking from a dark gutter. Even when he looks at her with disgust, she remains infatuated with him. So when she learns the plot, she has no intention of changing her fate. Instead, she doubles down and embraces her role as the villainess. Before every protagonist in the story has even stopped being a novice, She falls to demonic cultivation ahead of schedule... * The male lead's point of view: Xuan Yi is the young master of an immortal sect, the only person in the world born with a sword bone. No one knows that his sword bone has a special ability: the moment he makes eye contact with someone, he can hear their thoughts. Admiration, praise, jealousy, resentment: he has grown numb to it all and is used to hearing it. But among all those voices, the thoughts of his seemingly gentle and quiet junior sister are dark and deranged. Her twisted intentions toward him make him sick. He hates her hypocrisy, her pretense, and her nearly insane delusions about him. Until one day, he can no longer hear her thoughts. When he wakes again, she has imprisoned him in a place of absolute quiet. So quiet that there is only him, and her. She crawls up his clothes like foul, rotting mud and stains him. During that time, Xuan Yi would rather be dead. He goes from humiliation and revulsion to gradual numbness, and then... to getting used to it. Xuan Yi hates her, yet gradually begins to find he cannot live without her. Then one day, after she has been gone for a long time, she returns, and he can hear her thoughts again. She is tired of him. She thinks the young man down the mountain is interesting. She is going to let him go. - This time, Xuan Yi is the one who goes mad. #I fell in love with the madwoman who imprisoned me. How can she stop loving me? Theme: No one is born lowly. Be the light that illuminates your own path.
