The Villain's Guide to Winning the Heroine Starts With Bad Luck

Lin Ruxue is going to become the greatest woman under heaven!

As the future greatest under heaven, it is her duty to punish the wicked, aid the weak, save the sick, and heal the wounded.

But her first trip down the mountain corrected her old assumptions: you can't just save people you meet by the roadside, or you'll have bad luck.

Oh, of course, she wasn't the one who'd have bad luck. That person was.

He choked on his medicine, fell into a pit while using the toilet, and even managed to trip on a perfectly level road.

In all her life, Lin Ruxue had never met anyone so unlucky.

What baffled her even more was that this man was plagued by misfortune and covered in injuries, yet he stubbornly refused to leave.

When she asked why, he said, "To repay my debt of gratitude."

Repay her debt of gratitude.

Lin Ruxue guiltily turned her face away.

If he knew she'd saved him back then because she was afraid he'd complain to her master and extort her, would he cling to her even more?

She sat on the bed and thought it over carefully all night, then made a momentous decision.

Since she was going to become the greatest under heaven anyway, she might as well become the greatest villain under heaven.

If she became a villain just like the people who'd bullied him, surely he wouldn't dare bring up "repaying his debt of gratitude" in front of her?

So she roamed the martial world with this unlucky man, crushing every villainous organization one by one.

Her reasoning was simple: villainous organizations didn't hold martial arts tournaments like the righteous sects to compete for the top spot. So if she took out all the villains and was the only one left, she'd naturally be number one.

In his previous life, He Qinghuan was a demonic mastermind who controlled people's minds with Gu insects and threw the whole world into chaos.

He was in the middle of brutally slaughtering someone when a white dart came flying. He died.

His death made no sense. He hadn't even seen who killed him.

After being reborn, he found the person who'd thrown that dart: Lin Ruxue, a naive girl on her first trip down the mountain.

He played the pitiful weakling and infiltrated her sect, waiting for a chance to take revenge.

But this girl was far too strong, overwhelmingly so. He calculated every possibility, and she casually set everything right again.

He used Gu to make someone else kill on his behalf, only to become the one being hunted.

He laid a trap, then fell into it himself.

He released Gu insects to control her, but they crawled into the wrong person, making him the victim again.

He Qinghuan felt that he wasn't taking revenge. He was enduring a trial.

At long last, he managed to plant a Gu insect inside her, altering her desires and amplifying her wicked thoughts.

And sure enough, she changed.

She went from "I want to be the greatest under heaven" to "I want to be the greatest villain under heaven."

Then she began carrying out what she thought were villainous schemes: crushing every villainous organization one by one so she could become number one.

Those villainous organizations were all made up of the subordinates he'd painstakingly recruited in his previous life!

He Qinghuan tried to stop her, but couldn't.

His former subordinates couldn't beat her, so they started holding a grudge against him. "You brought the Demoness Lin here, didn't you?"

So they attacked him every day, leaving him covered in injuries. His life was far worse than it had been in his previous life.

Until one day, the System told him that Lin Ruxue was the heroine of this book.

And he was the villain she would personally kill in the finale.

As a villain, the closer he got to her, the more miserable his life became.

Reason told him he should run.

But his legs refused to obey.

...That's right.

He was here to kill her.

He hadn't gotten his revenge yet. How could he leave?

Besides, if Lin Ruxue could be the heroine,

why couldn't he, He Qinghuan, rise to the top as a villain and become the male lead?

The System reminded him: the male lead is the man the heroine falls in love with.

He narrowed his eyes.

Got it.

Operation: Win Her Over, begin.

[Reading Guide]

Because the male lead is unlucky and was a villain in the past, he'll suffer quite a bit in the story. Readers who are prone to feeling sorry for the male lead, please take note.
