The Heartless Villainess Who Practices the Hehuan Path

Fu Jinyue transmigrates one day and becomes a cultivator, with a chance to live for ten thousand years. The only problem is that she cultivates the Way of Dual Harmony and studies dual cultivation.

The System bound to her announces her mission in a cautious voice:

"You are the last heir of your sect. Your goal upon descending the mountain is to make the Dual Harmony Sect flourish."

Make what flourish?

Remembering the Dual Harmony Sect's cultivation techniques, Fu Jinyue blinks and understands.

No. 1 is a beautiful, powerful, tragic sword cultivator. His cultivation is still weak when he first ventures into the world. She treats him as an experiment and forgets all about him after one night.

But she has no idea how often the naive young man tosses and turns at night, whispering her name as he struggles with pain and insecurity, training through fire and sword just to stand by her side again.

No. 2 is a lofty beauty who wants for nothing. Fu Jinyue drags him down to earth, vows eternal love, then grows tired of him just as their feelings deepen and cuts him off as casually as discarding a worn shoe.

The man, who seemed like an immortal descended from the heavens, panics. He resents her cruelty and envies the new love she smiles at in her arms. Unwilling to let go, he watches her day after day, while his love continues to grow in secret, quietly clinging to her.

No. 3 is a gentle Ghost King who approaches her of his own accord. Fu Jinyue knows he has ulterior motives, yet she keeps drawing him in and pushing him away, turning his fake affection into genuine devotion. She toys with him in the palm of her hand, until he is left full of regret, humbly begging for forgiveness he will never receive.

Then come No. 4, No. 5, No. 6...

A commanding yet gentle master humbles himself for her. Twin brothers born together fall out over her. A proud young lord begs her with red-rimmed eyes...

Fu Jinyue is a parasitic vine, born without a heart.

She loves him. She cherishes him. She siphons away his cultivation and devours his family's influence, power, and resources. She arrives as a wicked, depraved cultivator, and leaves as the greatest Immortal Venerable, savior of all living beings.

The Dual Harmony Sect is accepted among the righteous sects and becomes famous. The people erect monuments and write biographies in her honor, cultivators revere her, and the System is left speechless.

But debts of love must eventually be repaid.

When a crowd of heaven's favored sons gather around her, none dare truly force her. They merely swallow their grievances and settle for a place in her life...

Fu Jinyue smiles wryly. "It's so hard to choose."

A guide before reading:

1. The female lead is not a virgin, while all the men are.

2. The protagonist is a bad woman who never turns over a new leaf. She often gets bored and discards men like worn shoes.

2. My own take on cultivation. Logic serves the plot.

3. There will probably be six men, but I may add more if I'm having fun writing them. This isn't a stock-picking story. Includes elements such as a lovesick puppy, aloof in public but twisted in private, a gentle older man, a green tea type, a tsundere, and a funny guy.

4. Important! The protagonist has a plot of her own. As the blurb says, she steps on men on her way to the top. By the end, the heroine has fame, fortune, and love all in hand.

5. Please note: the protagonist is not invincible from the start and has a growth arc. I often revise the story and add or change details.

The Chaotic Player's Dating Simulator

A player heroine's story of taking the world by storm + romantic rivalry as a side dish + solving mysteries across repeated cycles

Lu Yao falls into a dating game.

The bad news: It's a high-risk future world, overrun by the uncanny and full of danger, where death is commonplace.

The worse news: Every male lead is powerful and influential, while she, the player, is frail and delicate, with nothing but beauty, beauty, and damn more beauty.

The game sends her a tutorial:

"Hello, dear player. To survive, please work hard to win over the male leads and earn their love and rescue."

So her choices are death or becoming a pet?

Lu Yao: "Any good news?"

"There is, dear player," the game helpfully says. "As a player, you can restart infinitely."

No matter how recklessly she gets herself killed, she can open her eyes and return to the game screen to start over. She can even carry over points earned in previous rounds and gradually grow stronger, making her a nightmare that cannot be killed.

There's just one problem

Lu Yao: "Restarting the same stage more than a dozen times would make anyone numb."

To speedrun the game, the numb player is willing to do anything, even throw away her conscience.

But to the NPCs, she becomes a "devil," a "murderer," a "crazy woman who does whatever she wants"...

Lu Yao: "..."

Fine. As long as I can clear the game, call me whatever you like!

*

Much, much later, Lu Yao uses repeated restarts to learn through trial and error, charges ahead, climbs to the very top, and becomes a god worshipped by both humanity and the uncanny.

But there is one thing the god still has on her mind, so she sends a divine revelation to the world

That night, every male lead she hasn't yet collected is sent to her temple, one after another.

The men look at her with cold or resistant eyes, only making things more interesting.

Lu Yao slowly undoes her sash. "Kneel."

The next morning.

The satisfied player gives the game a perfect score.

#Wait, is this how you're supposed to play a dating game?#

A guide to potential triggers:

1. The heroine is frail but gradually grows stronger. She's decisive and ruthless, a fun-loving big-sister type who trains dogs with force and has an on-and-off relationship with morality.

2. Plot first, romance second. The pacing is slow at the start. Remember: plot is family, men are clothes.

3. The heroine is not a virgin, and all the men are. She doesn't sleep with them at the same time.

4. Includes many repeated cycles, a little suspense, an overpowered heroine, a battle royale for her affections, romantic rivalry, and a player conquering the world...

5. The blurb may change, but the core premise and important plot points will not.

Message: Even when faced with adversity, one must stand on one's own.
