Synopsis
Next door: "Mistook the Demon Lord for a Delicate Flower" is complete. Come check it out, darlings~
[Cold, aloof senior sister who cultivates the Heartless Dao x insecure, obsessive, gloomy snake man]
Jiang Qingyao transmigrates into a book, landing in an old-school tragic romance.
The Azure Phoenix Sword tells her she must stop the villain from destroying the world, or the plot will erase her on the spot.
The villain is named Chi Yan. When Jiang Qingyao first meets him, he is still an innocent child who has no idea what good and evil mean.
Jiang Qingyao takes him away from the cultivation world, hoping he can live out his life as a mortal, far from the conflicts of the cultivation world and the fate of bringing bloodshed to the Three Realms.
She teaches Chi Yan to read and paint, teaches him right from wrong, stays by his side as he grows up and studies the Dao, and eventually accepts his proposal.
But on their wedding day, she sees him covered in sinister, demonic energy.
It turns out that human effort cannot defy the plot after all.
Jiang Qingyao sighs and raises her sword against Chi Yan.
As his eyes redden and fill with tears, she runs him through the heart with one sword thrust.
*
Fate plays cruel tricks. There is more to the demonic energy than meets the eye.
Jiang Qingyao has killed Chi Yan by mistake.
When they meet again, Chi Yan has long forgotten her. He is covered in wounds, like an abandoned dog.
Feeling guilty, she treats his injuries and helps him cultivate. Their life together gradually improves.
As she sleeps at night, Jiang Qingyao often senses a sinister gaze fixed on her. It slithers up her spine like a snake, sweeps stickily across her waist, and soaks her chest with its damp presence.
"Yaoyao, please don't abandon me again..."
"I'll be good. I'll do the laundry, cook, mend clothes, and earn money to support the family."
"D-don't find someone else."
A low, magnetic voice repeats the words like a madman's mantra, raising goosebumps. The gaze grows bolder and hotter, pressing down on her until she can barely breathe.
Jiang Qingyao struggles to open her eyes and meets a pair of uncanny golden slit pupils.
He smiles and stares straight at her, as if he means to take her apart and devour her.
*
The legendary King of All Demons suddenly descends upon the world. The demon race stirs, the sun turns blood-red, and the elders lament that the cultivation world cannot escape a bloody storm after all.
Yet in the Demon King's palace, the supposed destroyer of the Three Realms does nothing but keep one slender woman by his side.
Cold black scales coil around Jiang Qingyao's waist and slowly tighten, as if threatening her, or perhaps teasing her.
Shivering all over with cold, she instinctively swings her sword, but he catches her firmly.
"Do you want to kill me again?"
Chi Yan bends down and licks the blood from the wound on her knuckle.
Tears fall onto the back of her hand, and his voice trembles almost imperceptibly.
"Yaoyao, it hurts..."
*
Jiang Qingyao never imagined she would weep until her heart broke, give everything she had, and sacrifice her very life, all to save one person.
Even if it means fighting Heaven.
Reader's guide:
1. One-on-one romance, both leads' first time, and a very happy ending. I can't handle even a little bit of a bad ending.
2. The heroine isn't perfect. At first, she's a little afraid of the hero and suffers through cultivation. She will get hurt and bleed!! Later, she tames him, and her fighting strength returns to its peak.
3. The hero is insecure and sensitive. He puts himself down and overthinks everything, with lots of inner monologue. Truly dark and crawling-in-the-shadows levels of gloomy.
4. Cultivation levels: Qi Refining, Foundation Establishment, Golden Core, Nascent Soul, Spirit Transformation, Void Refinement, Great Ascension, Tribulation Transcendence, Ascension
"Mistook the Demon Lord for a Delicate Flower" is coming soon. Please add it to your favorites~
Shi Ling transmigrates into a book, landing in a male-oriented cultivation novel.
She becomes the vicious supporting heroine who is about to be killed by the arrogant male lead.
After her attempt to escape fails, Shi Ling has no choice but to cling to her sickly husband's leg for the time being if she wants to survive. By day, she cooks for him and tends his injuries. By night, she strolls around and watches lanterns with him...
At last, Shi Ling takes a deadly sword blow for her husband and jumps off a cliff.
Having successfully faked her death, Shi Ling grins with delight: Freedom, here I come!
She misses the obsessive, sinister look her sickly husband gives her from behind.
*
After Shi Ling escapes to the mortal realm, she hears some rumors:
The Demon Venerable is cold-blooded and ruthless, treading over countless corpses and terrifying the Three Realms. Now he has lost the love of his life and become a complete madman.
Shi Ling: Why did he lose his wife too?
She can't help looking at the sickly husband who came to find her not long ago. He suddenly coughs up blood, the corners of his eyes reddening. Even his breaths sound like pieces of jade gently striking together.
"Does your ladyship think... I resemble that Demon Venerable?"
Shi Ling snaps, "Yes, yes, you're the Demon Venerable, and I'm the Celestial Maiden of the Ninth Heaven!"
He chuckles and folds her fingertips into his palm.
Their life together is peaceful, with the occasional quarrel, but they always make up in bed.
Shi Ling thinks she can finally spend the rest of her life in peace.
Then she steps beyond the town's barrier and watches the illusion shatter with her own eyes. Only then does she realize he was behind everything.
Her once-frail husband stands before the myriad demons, smiling at her with blood-red eyes.
Shi Ling feels as if the sky has fallen.
This isn't some frail little white flower. He's the great demon who will destroy the world!
The demon doesn't kill her. Instead, he kisses her trembling lashes, his eyes faintly shining with a sickly red light.
"I told you, there's nothing fun out there."
"Or have you... grown tired of me, my lady?"
"...But no matter what, I can't live without you anymore."
*
Everyone knows that the cold, world-weary Demon Venerable has a wife he can't forget.
When Qin Jiuyuan first meets Shi Ling, he expects her to torment and abuse him without mercy, just as she did in his previous life.
He should hate her, then kill her.
But she forces her way into his heart, cherishes him and loves him, and turns his world upside down.
Later, she takes a sword blow for him on a cliff.
His heart, dormant for so long, suddenly surges to life.
When he finds Shi Ling in the demon realm, she is tied to a tree by demonic cultivators, staring at him in shock with reddened eyes.
"Qin Jiuyuan?"
She's alive.
At the thought, a near-death ecstasy races up his spine. Though murderous intent nearly bursts from his chest, he smiles gently.
"Don't be afraid."
He will hide her away and cling to her without end...
Until she stops abandoning him.
Carefree, confident sunshine girl x sickly, obsessive, gloomy, world-weary demon lord
2. One-on-one romance, both leads' first time, happy ending
Coming soon: "The Lazy Supporting Heroine Gets a Yandere Script." Please add it to your favorites~
Yu Wanzhi transmigrates into a book, landing in a redemption story.
She becomes the pitiful supporting heroine who first saves the yandere villain, then gets abused in body and mind. In the original book, the heroine's sunny personality attracts all kinds of clingy creatures: a male lead who loves her to madness, a supporting hero who feeds her his blood and flesh...
Yu Wanzhi says, Whoever wants to save him can do it. I'm just going to lie here. What can he do to me?
The System tells her that the original supporting heroine was so full of resentment that the script was temporarily rewritten, so now she has been assigned...
The villain's yandere script.
Yu Wanzhi: ??? Then what happened to the supporting heroine's script?
System: Naturally, the villain got it. You can only return if you become even more twisted than the supporting characters. Otherwise, you'll die.
Yu Wanzhi: Well, I'm screwed.

Wei Xuan is blind and has a disabled leg. It shouldn't be too hard, so Yu Wanzhi decides to try.
Task 1: Secretly spy on Wei Xuan without being caught.
Task 2: Write a different deranged diary entry every day.
Task 3: Make physical contact with Wei Xuan.
By the thirtieth day of writing deranged diary entries, Yu Wanzhi is falling apart. She can't come up with a single one.
One day, she happens to pick up a little notebook on the road.
The contents are remarkably good:
"Today she was particularly forward and brushed against my chin. Her hair smelled so sweet. I think I have heart disease. My heart is beating so fast."
"She wore the goose-yellow dress I secretly gave her and smiled at me. Her face was pink. I... I want to kiss her."
"I want to hide Little Fish away."
"She hasn't paid attention to me lately. She's meeting someone else in secret, but I'm really going blind. My eyes have bled so much. It hurts, it hurts so much. Little Fish, can you touch me too?"
"When will she realize I've been watching her from behind this whole time? Heehee, soon..."
"Little Fish, Little Fish, Little Fish. I love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you, love you. I love you, love you, love you..."
"I'm not worthy of A-Yu."
Yu Wanzhi reads it with her heart pounding, then becomes ecstatic and treasures it like a priceless object.
This is perfect, absolutely perfect. The author of this book is a genius. Heaven is on my side!
*
Yu Wanzhi diligently carries on with her tasks for a long time, but Wei Xuan doesn't seem the least bit gloomy or deranged. On the contrary, he's gentle and refined, a true gentleman.
It seems a villain with the supporting heroine's script really is different.
The two of them get along, trading affection until they become close friends.
Wei Xuan's handwriting is bold and powerful in his letters, and Yu Wanzhi always feels it's somehow familiar.
One day, she accidentally loses the notebook she found.
*
One night, she locks Wei Xuan in a room to complete a task. The shadow behind him slowly grows taller. Something is wrong, terribly wrong.
In the darkness, Wei Xuan rises from his wheelchair with a chuckle, removes his eye bandage, and steps closer, each footfall landing on her heart. "Did the princess enjoy herself, hmm?"
Yu Wanzhi's back hits the wall, and she meets a pair of eyes dark as ink, so deep she can't see the bottom. His thin, red lips brush her ear.

??? Why does the entire article and setting, including the previous part of the description, look very grand, but in fact the heroine's behavior and emotional details are all along the line of sadistic women? The heroine's behavior and personality don't match up, and their IQs are not on the same level.
Omg There is a bit of the timeline that I don't understand.
The writing seems to be about torturing men, but the first chapter is all about torturing women. . .
Thank you to heaven, thank you to earth, thank you for your hard work~
It feels like the admirer next to the heroine is with her friend, which is weird. The heroine also reacts to the female partner.
It feels weird to force a balance between Yun Luo and the male partner. Moreover, the female cultivator of the Hehuan Sect has never been in love, which feels a bit like forcing a female nun.
Looking at the plot, I feel like the heroine killed the hero but also saved him. One life is worth another life, so I don't owe him anything.
"Hiding" is a big bug for the author~ Buried?
"Hiding" is a big bug for the author~
It feels like the character has a halo of subduing intelligence. Even if the female lead's cultivation level plummets, she is close to the peak of her combat power and may not rise again later. Several characters are short-sighted and vicious villains with facial makeup...
