Lou Xingyue transmigrates into a cultivation novel about an arrogant chosen one and is bound to a redemption System. Her mission is to turn the world-ending villains toward the light and set them on the right path.

Villain No. 1: Born with a demonic core, he is reckless, arrogant, and utterly self-centered, bent on taking on the entire cultivation world by himself.

Villain No. 2: A half-demon rejected by heaven and earth, he is stunningly beautiful but spends his days lurking in the shadows. He does everything he can to spark a war among the hundred clans and destroy the world.

Villain No. 3: A prodigy of the immortal path, he loses his cultivation overnight, suffers every hardship life has to offer, and eventually falls into the Asura Path, determined to go mad and take everyone down with him.

Villain No. 4: The son of the Ghost Emperor...

Lou Xingyue: "...Seriously, with this many world-ending villains, how has the sky not fallen yet?"

-

By doing everything in her power to stop the villains from turning evil, Lou Xingyue somehow becomes their beloved darling.

While training in the Demon Realm, she is captured by the Demon Lord for a blood sacrifice. Villain No. 1 comes alone, sword in hand, and fights his way through the nine heavens of the Demon Realm to save her. He defeats the Demon Lord and becomes the Demon Realm's new ruler.

She wanders into the Monster Realm and is captured by the Monster Emperor to be made into a pill. Villain No. 2 rises up to save her, overthrows the Monster Emperor, and restores order to the monster clans.

She joins an immortal sect and is subjected to endless harassment. Villain No. 3 appears with his Asura Sword, challenges the prodigies of a hundred sects, and takes her to join their grandmaster's lineage. Even the old monsters have to call her Junior Martial Sister.

She goes to the Ghost Realm to search for medicine...

One day, Lou Xingyue accidentally discovers the world-ending villains holding a secret meeting and sneaks over to listen.

Villain No. 1: "I'm in love with the holy maiden of my clan. I'm going to confess to her."

Villain No. 2: "I'm secretly in love with my master, but I don't dare let her know."

Villain No. 3: "I like my junior martial sister, and she likes me too."

Villain No. 4: "I've got my eye on my sworn enemy. How do I get her to fall for me too?"

Villains Nos. 1, 2, 3, and 4: "Your clan's holy maiden / your master / your junior martial sister / your sworn enemy is..."

Lou Xingyue, Holy Maiden of the Demon Clan, Imperial Mentor of the Monster Clan, Junior Martial Sister of the Asura Path, and Ruler of Ten Thousand Ghosts: "..."

After her identity is accidentally exposed, Lou Xingyue runs away.

That night...

Villain No. 1 leans against the head of her bed, smiling faintly. "Where are you going, Holy Maiden?"

Villain No. 2 knocks from outside. "Master, do you no longer need your disciple to bathe and dress you tonight?"

Villain No. 3 stands on the roof with his sword in his arms. "Junior Martial Sister, our dual-cultivation ceremony is tomorrow. Come back with me?"

Villain No. 4 drifts through the crack in the window. "Your Majesty, I have come to warm your bed."

Lou Xingyue: "…"

Reading Guide:

1. Farming and everyday life. The heroine is good at acting harmless while hiding her true strength.

2. The split versions include, but are not limited to, gloomy and unhinged lurkers / older, restrained types with extreme possessiveness / younger, puppy-like rivals who fight over her.

3. The heroine has a mild harem-protagonist aura.

4. This is my take on cultivation fiction, written purely for love of it. If it's not your thing, please don't read.

Pre-release: Seven Failed Ascensions, So I Gave Up and Became a Slacker. Blurb:

After Ying Hanqing fails her ascension for the seventh time, she is reborn as the youngest daughter of the Qingyuan Sword Sect's leader.

With parents who love their daughter more than life itself and overprotective older siblings, she decides to live like a slacker.

She enters a secret realm and is surrounded by monsters.

Ying Hanqing tosses out a defensive formation disk, munches on a spirit fruit, and sends a message by flying sword: "Big brother, big sister, come save me."

She goes out to gain experience and is captured by evil cultivators, who take her back to their lair.

Ying Hanqing tosses out a defensive formation disk, sips spirit dew, and sends a message by flying sword: "Mom, Dad, help me."

Everyone in the Four Directions Realm knows that the Sword Sect leader's youngest daughter is a useless little crybaby who only knows how to call for her parents whenever something happens. No one considers her a threat.

The war between the righteous and demonic factions is about to break out. A million demons march to war, ready to bathe the Four Directions Realm in blood.

Just as cultivators from every sect fall into despair, a sword beam shoots into the sky and wipes out the demonic army.

Under the stunned gazes of everyone around her, Ying Hanqing struggles to hold back her life-bound divine sword, which hasn't tasted blood in ages and wants to cut down the rest of them too. "They're on our side! The rest are on our side!"

After her true strength is exposed, her parents pack her off to the battlefield between immortals and demons.

Her divine sword leaves its sheath, and the great masters rush over.

The Saint of the Ghost Path cries out in shock: "Grandmaster!"

The Supreme of the Talisman Realm weeps: "Grandmaster!"

The Domain Lord of the Alchemy Domain stares in disbelief: "Grandmaster!"

The Great Emperor of the Monster Clan is stunned: "Grandmaster!"

The First Sword Sage shouts: "Grandmaster!"

The Half-Step Formation Immortal's voice cracks: "Grandmaster!"

The Demon Lord, who was just about to take on all six of them, drops to his knees in delight. "Master!"

Ying Hanqing: "..."
