After Playing the Villain as a Replacement, I Died and Slipped Away

Ning Qi transmigrated into a novel, becoming a princess betrothed to the male lead. The system told her that if she followed the plot by blindly pining for the male lead, accumulated enough devotion points, and took a fatal blow for him, she could return to her original world.

She happily agreed, but the male lead remained cold to her. While visiting a pleasure house, she met a blind servant. He resembled the male lead in figure and perfectly matched her aesthetic.

The system warned her that this was the novel's ultimate villain, a demon god who would almost destroy the three realms. Ning Qi wasn't worried, as he wouldn't become the demon god until ten years later, while she would be gone in a year. She bought him home, calling him 'Xiao Sui,' and took full advantage of the situation.

The male lead eventually discovered Xiao Sui's existence, causing Ning Qi's devotion points to plummet. In a panic, she told the male lead that Xiao Sui was just a replacement for him. A year later, when demon tribes invaded, she took a fatal sword strike for the male lead and completed her task.

The usually stoic male lead lost composure, holding her with a pale face, only to be violently shoved aside by Xiao Sui who had run over. As cold liquid fell on her face, Ning Qi felt guilty, thinking she had indeed wronged Xiao Sui.

She opened her eyes again, only to find she was still in that world, destined to be the 108th sacrifice offered to the Demon God. Five years had passed, and the Demon God had ascended the throne, ruling the Demon Realm and hunting cultivators to turn them into corpse demons for revenge.

Before she could question the system, she was thrown into a dark dungeon and saw the male lead tortured beyond recognition. The system suddenly appeared: Host! There's a problem, your new mission is to rescue the male lead!

Ning Qi was confused. Then she saw her former servant, dressed in splendid robes and a jade crown, walking slowly into the dungeon. His gaze fell on her hands trying to pick the lock, his eyes dangerous.

Ning Qi's movements paused. The Demon God crushed the key in her hand, pulled her into a magnificent room, locked the door, and cornered her. His voice trembled as he asked, 'If he dies, I won't be a replacement anymore, will I?'

*Fake replacement trope*The male lead loves her deeply and will never hurt the female lead
