Coveting the Ghost King Today, Too

[I can't figure out where to take this story, so I'll come back to it later]

Lu Yin is the Ghost King's shadow.

She stands in the shadows, sharing a face with the Ghost King, Jiang Yuci. Whenever Jiang Yuci can't show herself, Lu Yin takes her place.

She has no self of her own. Everything she is comes from Jiang Yuci.

Until one day, the Ghost King left without a word and never came back.

After playing the Ghost King for hundreds of years, Lu Yin finally found Jiang Yuci's whereabouts

She had gone to the human realm to be reincarnated.

Her boss had run away, and now she'd suddenly become the Ghost King for real. Lu Yin: ?

She had to go to the human realm and bring Jiang Yuci back.

_

Lu Yin arrived at a cultivation sect in the human realm and found Jiang Yuci in her new life.

Watching the white-robed cultivator, whose brilliance was just beginning to shine, Lu Yin could barely hide the gloom in her heart.

She'd carefully guarded the Ghost King's throne that Jiang Yuci had abandoned, living an invisible life. Why should Jiang Yuci still shine so brightly, just as she always had?

Why did Jiang Yuci get to live in the light, while Lu Yin could only be a lowly, shadowy double?

She had taken care of Jiang Yuci's dirty business, staining her hands with blood and filth to keep Jiang Yuci pure.

Jiang Yuci was the moon in the sky, and Lu Yin was the clouds behind it.

Jiang Yuci was a flower reflected on the water, and Lu Yin was the mud below.

But why had Jiang Yuci been born above everyone else?

The shadow had made up her mind.

She would drag Jiang Yuci down and plunge into hell with her forever.

The Lazy Fish Refuses to Be Wooed

[A rich, lazy fish who transmigrated into a book as the Demon Venerable x a green tea junior sister bound to a romance System]

Lazy fish Luo Ciyan pursued her crush for half a month, only to learn she was straight. After being rejected, she transmigrated into the Demon Venerable of the cultivation world.

The Demon Venerable was beautiful, had pale skin, was highly skilled, and had a fortune to rival a nation, not to mention countless supporters.

Luo Ciyan: How is this any different from finding five million yuan?!

After reaching the pinnacle of life in another world, the first thing Luo Ciyan did was

forget where she came from.

Luo Ciyan enjoyed a happy life, spending money like water and getting close to countless beautiful female demon cultivators. But she noticed that a disciple from an immortal sect kept showing up around her, deliberately creating opportunities to get close.

Oh, another one with a crush on me, Luo Ciyan thought.

After all, she was a winner in life now.

Luo Ciyan waved the woman over, thinking she could have her serve her in the Demon Palace, too.

Then she saw that the woman looked exactly like her straight crush.

Luo Ciyan: Thanks, but no. I can have any kind of woman I want now. I'm not going to be someone's pathetic little lapdog.

Qi Yuewei, the righteous light and direct disciple of the Cloudclear Sect's leader, was bound to a strange System.

It told Qi Yuewei that she had a seal on her cultivation, and she would never be able to advance unless...

Unless she went to the Demon Venerable Luo Ciyan, got close to her, earned her trust, and made her fall in love with her.

Qi Yuewei had always despised using her looks to get what she wanted. Besides, getting involved with that demon was completely improper.

But breaking through was important, and the fate of her sect depended on it. With no other choice, Qi Yuewei decided to give it a try.

Who would have thought Luo Ciyan was such a flirt, with countless beauties around her and ambiguous relationships with several senior sisters in the sect, yet she never smiled whenever Qi Yuewei was around?

After repeatedly hitting a wall with Luo Ciyan, Qi Yuewei thought perhaps she couldn't go against fate.

Just as she was about to give up and leave, Luo Ciyan tugged at her sleeve after drinking and whined for her not to go.

Qi Yuewei found it a little amusing. During the day, Luo Ciyan could barely be bothered to acknowledge her, but at night she was especially clingy.

She leaned closer and heard Luo Ciyan mutter, choking back tears, "You don't even like me, so why do you keep coming to flirt with me?"

Only then did Qi Yuewei learn that Luo Ciyan had someone she liked already.

And that person must have looked very much like her.

Qi Yuewei scoffed. Proud as she was, how could she ever agree to be a substitute?

Yet not long afterward, her eyes turned red.

"There are so many people from the immortal and demonic paths, and you'll take anyone. Why not me?"

"Would it make me more like her? Could you... love me a little more?"
