After Dying Over and Over, I Finally Drove the Villain Mad

After transmigrating one day, Lin Jingzhao receives an utterly clichéd mission: win over Xiao Ding'an, a personal disciple of Yingtian Sect, one of the three great immortal sects, and a future demon lord destined to destroy the world.

Lin Jingzhao imagines a pitiful villain being bullied to the brink by a crowd of sanctimonious people, with her swooping down to save the hero. But when she sees the harmonious, mutually supportive immortal sect, fiercely protective of its own, she is baffled.

Why isn't it going according to the usual script?

System: Host, why not try listening to me?

With the System's help, she resolutely dies in Xiao Ding'an's place. At last, she wins over the villain, but also drives him mad. She thinks she can fake her death and return home, but just then the "System" reveals its true identity and lays its cards on the table: Sorry, your mission isn't complete yet.

*

The day Yingtian Sect is destroyed, Xiao Ding'an is consumed by grief. He watches helplessly as his fellow disciples and the one he loves die for him. He completely breaks down and follows the path Heaven has written for him. Years later, that familiar figure suddenly appears. He has her captured and brought back, then asks, "If you came to kill me, why did you hide from me?"

Lin Jingzhao: ?

Xiao Ding'an smiles. "I knew all along that you came to kill me."

"She didn't come for you. She never chose you."

"The moment she chose to save all living beings, she chose me."
