[Transmigration and Rebirth] <After Constantly Courting Death, I Became the White Moonlight> by Ji Ying [Complete + Extras]

Blurb:

After transmigrating into a male-oriented cultivation novel, Ning Ning had planned to diligently follow the plot, only to discover that something was off about this world.

Within her sect, her senior brother kicked off his left foot with his right to soar into the sky, her senior sister made money by selling fanfiction about the sect elders, and her master was so poor it was appalling, drinking plain boiled water from eighty-two years ago every day.

Beyond the sect, Buddhist Cultivators trained hard in their arts, chanting sutras like they were rapping, their lips practically sparking; Sword Cultivators loved their swords like wives, competing to become the top courtesan so they could support their wives, with love stories that moved heaven and earth; Music Cultivators wielded Buddhist Bells from temples as weapons, and were best at swinging the bell clappers to knock people around.

Ning Ning: ...

There's no saving this. Let it all be destroyed. This cultivation world is doomed sooner or later.

=====

Ning Ning transmigrated into a cultivation novel as the vicious little Junior Sister.

To stay alive, she had to follow the original plot and keep courting death, offending every important character.

Ning Ning, who'd been a well-behaved girl from childhood: Though I'm not very good at this sort of thing... I'll do my best!

Target One: The sinister and unrestrained Junior Brother

The original novel's male lead, her Junior Brother, came from a poor family and had impure blood. He suffered discrimination in his sect and was bullied until he was covered in wounds.

Ning Ning smashed the immortal spring he used to heal himself. As it turned out, someone had already replaced the water with corrosive poison, which splashed all over her legs.

The youth lowered his eyes and crouched, gently brushing over the bloody marks on the girl's calf. "Why did you help me?"

Target Two: The refined and elegant Senior Brother

The Senior Brother had suffered much in his youth and trusted no one. Ning Ning gritted her teeth and shoved him down a slope, but the moment she made her move, a demonized wolf sprang out of the bushes.

The Senior Brother drew his sword and slew the demon, then wiped the blood from her face. "Ning Ning, you needn't risk your life to save me. Your big brother will keep you safe."

Target Three: The aloof, sickly beauty of an elder

The elder had lost all his cultivation in a great battle and lived alone in the mountains to recuperate.

Ning Ning went to make trouble every few days, and was rewarded with the full package: poisoning, falling off a cliff, and getting bitten by wolves. She never imagined that, to a man who had been lonely for so long, the little girl who suddenly entered his life would be like an unexpected beam of light.

After realizing that the plot seemed to be heading somewhere strange,

Ning Ning: If that overactive imagination is so moved, can I get double the medical fees?

[Reader's Guide]

1. One-on-one romance. The male lead is Pei Ji. This isn't a harem or reverse-harem story, okay!

2. A hilarious, goofy story. Goofy, goofy, really goofy—please don't argue with me TT

One-line summary: Goofy villainess, courting death online.

Theme: Our fates are in our own hands. Hope everyone finds the most wonderful familial, platonic, and romantic love.

Far mountains had yet to swallow the last of the setting sun, but the cold moon, white as frost, already hung at the treetops. Dusk was on the verge of falling. Dark clouds carried wisps of crimson haze, like flecks of ink bleeding outward, gradually soaking through the rice paper.

The setting sun spilled blood-red light everywhere, staining the mottled white wall beneath the eaves, as well as the delicate profile of the girl beside it.

Ning Ning stood alone before a low house. After hesitating for a long while, she murmured in a barely audible voice, "Then... I'm going in."

No one responded.

That included the system in her head, which had explained the task and then played dead, vanishing without a trace.

Fine.

Ning Ning gathered her collar around herself in the shivering night breeze, then reached out and rested her palm lightly against the half-closed brown door.

How she had ended up here today was, from beginning to end, a complete accident.

After all, transmigrating into a novel she'd read before could hardly be called "expected," no matter how you looked at it.

The novel was called Sword Pierces the Firmament. Those four unadorned Chinese characters alone exuded the pure, unpretentious aura of a wish-fulfillment story—and one that made no secret of its triumphs, flaunting them for all to see.

Its writing and plot matched the title perfectly. If it needed a subtitle, then, like the character "hui" in "fennel" having four different ways to write it, there were probably four possibilities:

First: <Will a Reincarnated Sword Immortal Dream of His Natal Sword?>

The male lead, Pei Ji, was the reincarnation of an ancient sword cultivator of great power. An immortal sword had entered his body, and his potential was extraordinary.

Though he had lost the memories of his time as a Sword Venerable, he still relied on this ridiculously powerful cheat to breeze through every obstacle, eventually becoming the greatest Sword Cultivator of his age and ascending to immortality.

Second: A Thousand Years of Solitude.

But everyone knew that, to make the protagonist's eventual comeback all the more satisfying, wish-fulfillment stories usually made his early life as miserable as possible. Poverty, lost cultivation, and being reduced to a stand-in were all par for the course. This book was no exception.

Pei Ji was the son of a demon cultivator and a mortal woman. His father, apparently an unstoppable seed-sower among men, vanished after a single night together and never appeared again—not even by the end of the book.

After giving birth to the so-called "bastard," Pei Ji's mother naturally felt no fondness for the child who'd ruined her reputation. She often treated him as a substitute for the demon cultivator, punishing and abusing him in all manner of ways.

This warped childhood directly made the male lead solitary, cold, sinister, and unrestrained. Even after leaving his mother and joining a sword sect, he always kept to himself and had few friends.

Third: <The Harem Members Want Me to Confess: A Genius's Battle of Wits Against Romance>.

Pei Ji was a lone wolf, but that didn't stop ninety-nine percent of the women in the book from taking a shine to him.

They said the male lead was extraordinarily handsome. Whether it was the aloof and otherworldly eldest senior sister of the Sword Sect or the charming, bewitching witch of the demonic path, whenever they saw his face, they would "unconsciously blush and feel their hearts beat faster."

Was it because he was a walking furnace, or because all those female characters suffered from varying degrees of heart disease? Ning Ning had no idea.

The only thing she could be sure of was that Pei Ji crushed every single one of those romantic prospects to smithereens with his own hands. At the end, he forgot his worldly ties and ascended alone. The whole thing screamed, "I'm above you all. You're not worthy."

Talk about being cocky.

Fourth: Devotion of Tool Person X.

This was an unimaginably sad and heavy topic.

Ning Ning just wanted to wipe away the old tears streaming through her heart. After all that, she'd finally come to the part that felt like home.
