Ascended After Becoming a Substitute

Mu Fuyun, as the first female cultivator on Yuya Mountain, debuted at the peak.

Her sect specially groomed her, she had countless admirers, and her path to immortality was smooth sailing, yet right before ascending, she transmigrated into a substitute abuse novel.

In the book, she was brought back to Tianyan Sect after her elder sister accidentally perished.

The scumbag men used her fresh blood to nourish the wisp of divine sense her sister left behind, threw her into the Forbidden Abyss to turn her body into a vessel for resurrecting her sister, making her endure eighty-one thunder tribulations, corroded by countless evil spirits until her soul scattered completely.

Mu Fuyun: Is this something people do?

Yet the Heavenly Dao tells her that to return to the righteous path and ascend to immortality, she must go through this ordeal.

Mu Fuyun: …Fine then, it's the greatest arrangement from the heavens.

To suffer less when jumping into the Forbidden Abyss, she decides to return to her old ways and diligently cultivate to advance—letting the scumbag men serve as her stepping stones.

Want to use me to revive my sister? Then hurry up and help me cultivate!

Eldest Senior Brother: “Recognize your own identity; you’re just a substitute.”

Mu Fuyun: “Yes, yes, for my sister’s sake, Eldest Senior Brother, why not lend me your pure fire spiritual energy for a bit?”

Eldest Senior Brother: “?”

Little Junior Brother: “If you weren’t my senior sister’s blood-related younger sister, you wouldn’t even qualify to be her vessel.”

Mu Fuyun: “Exactly, for my sister’s sake, Little Junior Brother, why not lend me the thousand-year cold pond in your courtyard for a use?”

Little Junior Brother: “??”

Demon Lord: “If I turn you into a puppet, I can keep looking at this face forever, right?”

Mu Fuyun: “How could a puppet compare to the real thing? As long as the Demon Lord lends me the sacred grass from the demon domain, I guarantee to return a genuine Mu Fuyue to you!”

Demon Lord: “???”

Soon, everyone watched wide-eyed as that former good-for-nothing Mu Fuyun’s cultivation advanced by leaps and bounds day by day—first taking first place in the outer sect assessment, then standing out in the inner sect missions, then dominating the sect grand competition and shining brightly, becoming the immortal cultivation goddess in everyone’s eyes.

The scumbag men’s gazes toward her also changed.

The Demon Lord, to win Mu Fuyun’s favor, presented an entire field’s worth of spiritual herbs right to her.

The Little Junior Brother drained the thousand-year cold pond dry, turning it into Mu Fuyun’s bath water—two basins a day.

As for the Eldest Senior Brother’s pure fire spiritual power? It was just right for heating the bath water.

They thought this would keep her around.

But before the Forbidden Abyss, facing the scumbag men’s repentance, Mu Fuyun simply waved her hand dashingly: “Do you know how long I’ve waited for this day? No one should block my path to immortality!”

With that, she leaped up and jumped into the Forbidden Abyss.

The thunder tribulation arrived right on time, and under everyone’s watchful eyes, that substitute ascended!

Note:

1. First time writing fantasy; not sure exactly what type it is—it's not a comedic farce, and it might be a bit slow to heat up; I don’t know.

2. The scumbag men are not the love interest; the male lead is someone else.

3. 1v1, happy ending.
