Chapter 1 You are the Villainous Female Supporting Character

Nestled in the deep, remote mountains, there is a slightly dilapidated but very cozy little house.

There is a small courtyard in front of the house.

In the courtyard, a slender girl with flowing black hair was learning to walk.

Ye Kemeng, who was practicing walking on two legs, once again stepped her left foot on her right foot and fell face down in a big fall.

A cloud of dust was stirred up.

It's been three days!

She's been lying there for three whole days!

Three days ago, she was a nimble and free little kitten who could climb trees and swim in the sea.

If she hadn't eaten a strange-looking bird, she wouldn't have ended up in such a state.

Recalling the sad things, a tear rolled down Ye Kemeng's pale face.

"Please let me go back, I promise I won't eat you."

Ye Kemeng said to the system that existed inside her body and called itself 666.

[Sorry, 666 does not have this permission.] The cold, mechanical voice echoed in Ye Kemeng's mind.

"I'll spit you out, okay?!" Ye Kemeng said angrily.

[666 is now bound to its host and cannot be separated unless the mission of playing the 'villainous female supporting character' is completed.]

Ye Kemeng gritted her teeth and propped herself up, slowly walking to the threshold to sit down, gently rubbing her swollen and aching knees.

Cats have an extremely sensitive sense of pain; the moment the cat touched her, tears welled up in her large almond-shaped eyes.

The girl had a slender figure and snow-white wrists. Even though her face was covered in dust, it did not diminish her beauty in the slightest.

At this moment, her delicate almond-shaped eyes glistened with tears, making her look so pitiful that the system even began to doubt whether her previous answer had been too programmed and not gentle enough.

"...As long as you play the 'villainous female supporting character' well and complete the mission, you can go back."

The system had completely forgotten that it was swallowed by this tearful master and had no choice but to bring her here.

Its tone softened by eight degrees.

[The first task is to annul your engagement. You have a fiancé, Bai Lingyu, the eldest son of the city lord of Linlang City, three hundred miles to the south.]

Ye Kemeng listened attentively. She skillfully held back her tears and spoke in a calm, even tone: "You told me that marriages are arranged by parents and matchmakers, and once it's set, you have to get married. Why would I want to break off the engagement?"

Good question.

[Because you're the villainous female supporting character, your character is set up to be the most beautiful, the weakest, and the most trouble-maker. You've already achieved the first two; now the key is to 'stir up trouble.']

Ye Kemeng pondered the meaning of the system.

The opposite of "troublemaker" is "sensible." Being sensible means being obedient, well-behaved, and following the rules. So, troublemaker...

Her eyes lit up, and she asked earnestly, "So, you mean I can completely ignore all the rules you've told me about over the past three days and just be free and do whatever I want?"

[It seems... that's one way to understand it.]

Ye Kemeng breathed a sigh of relief, finally feeling at ease.

"You listed so many rules before, and writing them all down is giving me a headache. Fortunately, I don't have to follow any of them. I'm going to take a nap now."

Hey, wait a minute! What are you sleeping for! Practice walking...

"Ugh, how can I have the energy to practice if I don't get enough sleep! The villainous female supporting character should be free and easy!" Ye Kemeng leaned against the wall, quickly slipped to the bedside, took off her pants, and rolled herself into the quilt.

【？？？】

Ye Kemeng lay in bed, closing her eyes happily.

It must be said that after being transported to the human world, one has to walk on two legs and is not as agile as a kitten, but the hands are more dexterous and can do many things that kittens cannot, such as cooking and covering oneself with a blanket.

In a way, it turned out to be a blessing in disguise.

The kitten has always been an optimist and doesn't dwell on self-pity or worry for long. For her, being able to eat her fill and sleep soundly is enough to make her happy.

Furthermore, Ye Kemeng isn't an ordinary cat; she's a rusty-spotted leopard cat with an exceptionally strong ability to adapt to her environment, capable of surviving alone in the rainforest. Having suddenly transmigrated from Earth to this world of immortals and heroes where cultivation is possible, she adapted quickly, except for needing time to adjust and coordinate her gait.

She, Ye Kemeng, is sixteen years old and the daughter of the leader of a tiny sect.

It is said that before she was born, this sect called 'Guixing Sect' was not so dilapidated, and was even considered one of the most famous sects in the area.

However, unforeseen events can happen.

Sixteen years ago, the demon race launched a surprise attack on the Demon Locking Tower, releasing the most evil monster in the history of creation, the 'Black Tide'. The 'Black Tide' had been imprisoned for millions of years, but suddenly regained its freedom and became extremely ferocious, leaving no survivors in its wake.

It can be said that it wiped out half of the cultivation world.

The Guixing Sect, founded by Ye Kemeng's father, is among them.

However, at that time, Madam Ye was already nine months pregnant and about to give birth. Sect Leader Ye went out to find the Thousand-Year Marrow Cleansing Grass, hoping to cleanse the child's tendons and marrow when the child was born, so that the path of cultivation would be smooth and boundless in the future.

When he returned, the sect was in ruins, and only the baby who had been faked to death by Madam Ye using a secret method was still alive.

Sect Leader Ye was heartbroken and wanted to commit suicide, so he followed his wife in death.

...But if he leaves, this child will definitely not survive.

Sect Leader Ye originally intended to entrust the child to the Bai family of Linlang City and then commit suicide at his wife's grave. However, even with Madam Ye's secret protection, the infant named Ye Kemeng was still affected by the 'Black Tide'.

The scientific name is 'loss of spirit'.

If the child were healthy, Sect Leader Ye could entrust him to his old friend with peace of mind and end his life there. But the child suffers from soul loss syndrome; wouldn't it be a hassle to leave the child with the Bai family?

So Master Ye took the child to the Bai family to request the annulment of the engagement, and then embarked on a journey to treat the child's illness and seek medical help.

The head of the Bai family was kind and refused to annul the engagement: "Brother Ye has suddenly suffered such a heavy blow, how can I agree to annul the engagement? Wouldn't that be adding insult to injury for Brother Ye? Brother Ye, the engagement we have made will never change. My son Bai Lingyu will definitely marry Ye Kemeng."

After Ye Sect Leader's repeated refusals proved fruitless, he had no choice but to give up.

Over the years, he took Ye Kemeng with him wherever he went, fearing that the child his wife had protected with her life would perish because of his absence.

"666, you said my dad would never abandon me, so why haven't I seen him since I woke up?" Ye Kemeng, who was about to fall asleep, suddenly asked.

This question had been on her mind for a long time.

Although cats are solitary animals and don't like to share their territory with people, that person is still the father of this body.

My condolences.

"He's dead?" Ye Kemeng sat up abruptly.

【Um. 】

666 waited for a long time, but Ye Kemeng didn't press the matter further. Seeing her sitting there, refusing to sleep, 666 explained: "The day before I brought you here, the Black Tide once again ravaged the cultivation world. Sect Master Ye... perished while protecting this mountain."

Because his daughter lived on this not-so-majestic mountain, and his deceased wife was also buried there.

He will not allow the Kuroshio to advance any further.

After a long while, Ye Kemeng said softly, "So, now I'm the only one left in the Guixing Sect."

Before 666 could even utter the words "please accept my condolences," Ye Kemeng said, "I really have to break off the engagement. According to the marriage customs you told me about, if I marry Bai Lingyu, I'll be considered a member of the Bai family. In that case, the sect will be left without anyone."

After a pause, Ye Kemeng said, "If I get married, I will have to find a son-in-law who will live with me."

[...ambitious.]

-

If 666 had a human form, it would probably want to whisper in Ye Kemeng's ear right now.

"I know!" Ye Kemeng's voice was even louder than 666, but her pace was unhurried. "I'm just as anxious, okay! I don't want to marry that lark... wait, a lark? Is it tasty?"

After saying that, she stopped in her tracks, raised her head, as if she were imagining some delicious food.

[Stop thinking about eating birds! My little rascal, my name is Bai Lingyu, not a lark! Our main task now is to get to Linlang City!!!]

How could I not be anxious? I'm going crazy! This is our first task! This is the most important thing to showcase your ability to 'create trouble'!

Moreover, failure to complete the task will result in penalties for the host!

This can't be said to the host yet. 666 felt like he was about to faint as he watched Ye Kemeng walk slowly.

Ye Kemeng, who was already walking quite steadily, was urged on and then stepped on her right foot with her left foot again, slamming her to the ground with a 'thud'.

The leaves on the branches next to her were shaken off by her, landing squarely in her hair.

[...]

"I told you not to rush me!!! Walking is hard to learn!!!" Ye Kemeng stood up with fallen leaves on her head, speaking emphatically and loudly.

[…] Fine, you're weak, so you're right.

-

The seven-day learning experience was showing initial results. The tall girl, wearing a light green arrow-sleeved top, turquoise lantern pants, and a pair of matching boots, skipped and hopped down the mountain with a large bundle on her back.

[Don't be so relaxed, my host, get a little more in sync! You're making me look like a 'the emperor isn't worried, but the eunuch is.' Let's hurry, hurry up!]

Although the punishment for failing the first task wouldn't be too severe, as a system, 666 still didn't want its host to be punished.

'boom'!

The girl, who was jumping around, fell to the ground in a "spread-eagle" shape.

"Ughhhhhh, I told you not to rush me!!!"

[...] This little piece of trash.

A note from the author:

----------------------

Initially, the system commented: "[You useless little brat who can't even walk properly]"

Later, the system messaged: "[Please have mercy, boss! You can't eat that! You really can't eat it! Eating it will end the whole story!!!]"

My next Xianxia (fantasy/martial arts) novel, feel free to add it to your favorites if you like it~ This is the third book in my series, I'll be writing it this year~

After the Villainous Demon Lord Heard My Heart's Voice

Ye Qingqing had just finished writing a tragic ending for her novel a second ago, and the next second she transmigrated into it, becoming a second-generation immortal.

Her parents were of very high seniority, and even though she was a weakling, countless old people still called her "ancestor" every day.

Ye Qingqing thought: Wouldn't this mean I could just lie down and be a couch potato?

Soon, Ye Qingqing, a lazy bum, discovered that he and Duan Heng, the villain before he became a demon, were actually in the same sect!

Of course, Duan Heng also had to call her Little Ancestor.

-

On the day that Duan Heng, the most talented young man among the juniors of the immortal sect, had his immortal bones removed and was reduced to a demon, the Demon-Slaying Platform was surrounded by onlookers.

"Duan Heng is really crazy. I heard that... his master, the Ten Silence Immortal, has no remains."

"This kind of traitor who betrays his master and ancestors deserves to be tortured with his bones removed ten thousand times over!"

"But I heard that it was Master Shiji who slaughtered the entire Duan family..."

Amidst the clamor of discussion, the girl in plain clothes, who was engaged to Duan Heng, slowly stepped forward and placed half of a jade pendant next to the young man, who was covered in blood and had only a sliver of clear consciousness.

Her voice was gentle yet firm: "Duan Heng, today you have fallen into the Demon-Slaying Platform. I, Chu Lingyue, will consider you dead and keep vigil for you for a year. If you ever return, I will wait for you to come and ask for my hand in marriage again."

"This jade pendant will be Duan Heng's only means of maintaining a clear mind on the Demon-Slaying Platform."

"Tsk tsk, Chu Lingyue is so kind-hearted and nice! She truly deserves to be the female lead! I want to be close to her!"

"Alas, Duan Heng is truly pitiful. He has entered the Demon-Slaying Platform and will have to endure all kinds of tortures. Fortunately, the Demon-Slaying Platform is his destiny. When he comes out in three years, he will be invincible in the world."

Duan Heng was stunned. Before he could even touch the jade pendant, he was swallowed up by the Demon-Slaying Platform.

No one knew that in the dark and sunless Demon-Slaying Platform, the girl's clear voice could always be heard.

"Duan Heng will be able to come out in a thousand days."

"Go Duan Heng, five hundred days!"

"Three hundred days. When you come out, you'll be amazing."

That voice was the only light in Duan Heng's life, which was as dark as ink.
