Transmigrated to Ancient Times, I Became My Own Backer

After dying alongside her enemies, Yan Xiyu came back to life in ancient times.

But things went badly from the start. Her original body belonged to a young musician at the Imperial Music Bureau, about to be sent to a pleasure house. With no hope of buying her freedom, she had tried to hang herself.

The wicked supervisor holding her indenture papers even yelled that if she really died, he would sell her corpse for a ghost marriage.

Yan Xiyu: That scares me. If I want to live, I’ll have to make sure you die.

After using someone else to take revenge for the original owner, Yan Xiyu picked up a small bundle and left the Imperial Music Bureau.

But traveling alone meant she was bound to run into all sorts of thugs and bandits.

Yan Xiyu: I advise you all not to mess with me just because I’m unarmed.

Later, people called Yan Xiyu a heroine, a demon, and a Rakshasa.

Yi Yanliang: If my beloved wants to rule, then I’ll have no choice but to be a traitor in the eyes of the current emperor.

Yan Xiyu: What are you talking about?!

Qu Weizhi joined an adventure reality show that featured one ordinary guest in each episode.

The livestream chat was full of other guests’ fans, with the comments overflowing with “beautiful girl” and “handsome guy.”

Only Qu Weizhi stayed by herself at the back of the group, like an invisible person who didn’t exist.

With only ten minutes left in the recording, a viewer casually remarked, “That Weizhi girl actually made it to the end. How does she have the nerve to... Whoa?! What just happened?!”

“What happened?”

“You didn’t see it just now?! I’ll try again. Don’t you dare blink. That Qu Weizhi... Look, look, did you see it?! Was that just now...? Was it?!”

“...I think so. It was probably just a coincidence, right?”

“Let me try. That Qu Weizhi... Whoa?!!”

“I want to try too! Qu Weizhi, you... Aah! That’s terrifying!!!”

For those last few minutes, the screen was filled with screams and cries of “That’s terrifying!” Some accused the production team of faking it, and others even shouted for help.

The staff wanted to shout for help too.

Qu Weizhi became inexplicably famous. The production team, both shocked and frightened but eager to capitalize on the buzz, rushed to film a second episode.

This time, the livestream viewers were eager to try replicating the paranormal incident from last time. But the guests accidentally entered a forbidden area, putting them in grave danger.

Through the camera, viewers saw the guests huddled together in a corner, while Qu Weizhi stood still in place.

“What just happened? What’s going on?”

“Why do all the guests look so scared? What’s in front of them?!”

“What could there be? Didn’t you see... Qu Weizhi hasn’t even moved.”

Just then, Qu Weizhi looked at the camera and spoke her first words since the show began: “Cut the feed for two minutes.”

The cameras went dark immediately, and the livestream screen went black.

But the comments still worked, so the chat filled with complaints asking why the production team had cut the feed without warning!

What kind of ghostly variety show is this?!

The production team wanted to curse too!

Nobody in the control room had touched any of the control panels before the screens went black, and all the drones at the filming location still showed as operating normally.

Even if something had broken, how could every camera have failed at the same time?!

What kind of ghostly variety show is this?!
