Quick Transmigration: The Villain Saving System

Immediately after awakening, a large amount of information and memories poured into Yin Mei's mind.

This was the Nine Realms, where people could cultivate into immortals. In other words, it was a typical xianxia world, with cultivators, demons, and all sorts of bloody battles.

Yin Mei felt like crying with just this little piece of information. Mommy, I don't wanna die! Oh, but I've already died once…

The main character of this world was a girl called Murong Xing. Originally she was the legitimate child of the prime minister of a small kingdom on the main continent, but too bad she was born as a waste. She was bullied by the illegitimate daughters until she died, only for a 21st century female assassin to transmigrate into her body. At the same time, this 21st century assassin, who had the same name as the original body, Murong Xing, brought along a mysterious treasure from the modern world, a refining stove called the Nine Dragons Stove. This was bound to Murong Xing, decisively transforming her physique and cleansing her meridians. She proceeded to conquer the world, making all those talented and handsome men fall under her feet, from princes, emperors, geniuses, to even the demon king…

As for the male lead, he was the ninth prince of the kingdom Murong Xing was born in, but of course, his real identity couldn't be anything so ordinary. In fact, his mother was an immortal fairy from the higher realms that fled here with an extraordinary treasure. Although she didn't survive, her young child did, still in possession of the treasure that caused the entire upper realm to go crazy with greed. He was adopted by the Li Kingdom's royal family, and he hid his identity and abilities, slowly biding his time until he could take revenge on everyone who inflicted suffering on him and his mother.

It was a very cliche female protagonist plus transmigration plus xianxia world plot. It was so cliche that Yin Mei wanted to spit on it.

As for Yin Mei's identity, of course, it couldn't be anything good. Yin Mei was a poor cannon fodder villain known as Bai Yu. Bai Yu was a beautiful and innocent looking rabbit demon. She had a curious nature and liked interacting with humans. While she was living in the human world, she accidentally chanced upon Li Kingdom's ninth prince and his true appearance, resulting in love at first sight. Of course, any person that fell in love with the female lead's man could only have a bad ending. All her schemes against the female lead would backfire on her, and in the end, she was tortured and killed by the man she loved, the ninth prince.

Momma, why are these people so scary?

Yin Mei had the urge to curse the heavens right now, but was interrupted by the sound of the system before she was able to.

"First mission: Seduce the Ninth Prince."

Yin Mei directly fainted.

Before she could hit the ground, her dark vision recovered and she stabilized herself with the edge of the nearby table. Yin Mei was currently inside Bai Yu's small house in a valley protected with a strong illusion barrier. She had yet to leave the demon territory, let alone meet the male or female leads.

If Yin Mei had her way, she would never meet those two scourges that resulted in the death of the original body, but of course, the white orb bobbing up and down in front of her had to directly shatter her hopes.

"Can we change this mission into something easier??" Yin Mei asked, not able to suppress the slight bit of hope inside her.

"No." But the system immediately shut it down.

Yin Mei was silent.

Seduce the ninth prince? That evil creature whose looks were so beautiful that they could potentially destroy the world? That cold hearted beast that had tortured Bai Yu until her last breath?

Why was she so unlucky?

"Wait, isn't this called a 'villain saving' system? How does this have to do with villain saving?" Yin Mei asked, confused.

"This system has calculated and found the most efficient way to save the villain is to have him get together with this world's female lead." System 097 replied.

This world's villain was the demon king. In the original story line, this demon king ended up becoming interested with the female lead, like any capable male that interacted with her. The female lead's Mary Sue aura, wasn't it a little to strong? She wasn't quite sure what requirements needed to be met to "save the villain", but since the system said the best way was to matchmake him with the female lead, then she could only trust in the system's advice, no matter how reluctant she was.

But actually having to break up the main ship and then have the female lead get together with the villain, this was really too…

And to top it off, it seemed like the system decided the best way to do this was for her to actually get together with the male lead?

Isn't this basically courting death? It's the exact same thing the original body did and look where she ended up!

Yin Mei wanted to cry, but didn't have the tears to do so.

"Wait a second. Even if it is true that the villain needs to get together with the female lead, that doesn't necessarily mean that I have to seduce the male lead right??" Yin Mei said. No matter what, this issue of seducing the male lead, Yin Mei absolutely must wash her hands of it! Yin Mei had still been a virgin in her previous world before dying. Never experiencing love, she hadn't even ever held hands with a boy since preschool! Not only that, but this mission was seducing the male lead, who was a complete ice block and immune to everyone that was not the female lead.

"The system has deemed this the most efficient way for the villain to end up with the female lead."

"But that doesn't mean it's the only way, right? Seducing the male lead is too high of a hurdle, we should come up with a different way for the villain and female lead to get together!" Yin Mei started to think.

The system was silent, as if considering her proposition.

The reason that the female lead ended up with the male lead, rather than one of her other many talented and handsome suitors, was because the male lead was the strongest and most handsome of them all… probably. After all, because he was so strong, he was able to constantly protect the female lead and pamper her without worries. And, because he was so handsome, he was able to move the heart of this 21st century assassin, who had already become immune to beauty traps.

But, above all, it was because of opportunity. In terms of good looks and strength, actually, it can't be said that the demon king was below the male lead by much. It was just that the demon king entered the game too late, and also had no good opportunities to cultivate feelings with the female lead. On the other hand, the male and female leads lived in the same city, and so the male lead had plenty of chances to curry favor.

"Xiao Yu! Xiao Yu!" Yin Mei was snapped out of her thoughts by the sound of a gentle and beautiful voice. The door to Bai Yu's small hut was opened, revealing Bai Yu's mother, Bai Lin. Bai Lin was 300 years old, which could be considered just about middle aged for their race. Possessing traces of the Jade Rabbit bloodline in her veins, she was extremely beautiful even among the already beautiful looking rabbit demons. Of course, Bai Yu, who was her daughter, also inherited this beauty.

"Xiao Yu! How are you still not ready? There's no way you can meet the demon king looking like this!" Bai Lin exclaimed, immediately steering her daughter into the bathroom for her to freshen up. Before Yin Mei could protest, she had already been stripped and thrown into the bathtub.

Because it had been too long, the water had already gone cold, but Yin Mei was now Bai Yu, a rabbit demon with high cultivation, so she was not affected by it like she normally would have been.

Yin Mei reflected back on Bai Yu's memories and the information from the system. The time she transmigrated to was right before Bai Yu was supposed to meet with the demon king, and around when Bai Yu had run away from home.

The rabbit clan, from as long as anyone could remember, had been the servants of the demon king. As the daughter of the rabbit clan's chief, Bai Yu was expected to become the demon king's personal attendant. But, Bai Yu, who had been free-spirited from a young age and used to running around and having fun in the human world, was unable to stand having to serve the demon king, who never left his castle all day long. As a result, she made the decision to run away to the human world, and the rest was history.

But, this time, Yin Mei wouldn't be foolish. Although she knew that with her goal, she wouldn't be able to avoid meeting with the male and female lead in the end, she wasn't foolish to give up on this big thigh known as the demon king. Anyways, to smoothly complete the mission, it was better to have a connection with the big boss.

Yin Mei was thinking all of this as Bai Lin busied herself in cleaning Yin Mei up. Although as a cultivator, they could actually use a simple technique to clean their bodies, it was a little different from taking a bath. Not only that, but the bath that Yin Mei was in consisted of the essences of some precious magic herbs and flowers, giving off a faintly sweet smell. It was beneficial for cultivation and purifying the body and meridians.

When Yin Mei was finally ready, dressed in the white and jade green uniform of the rabbit clan, it had already been almost an hour. Yin Mei admired her reflection in the water mirror. The only thing satisfying about this transmigration was the fact that her appearance had improved by leaps and bounds. In her previous life, Yin Mei was only average, but now, she truly deserved the name as the rabbit clan's number one beauty. She had a pair of large and misty jade eyes, paired with pouty naturally red lips. Her thick cream ivory hair was naturally wavy, half of it pinned up into a bun with jade and pearl flower ornaments.

Of course, as a servant, her attire and jewelry could not be too extravagant, but this much was just perfect for the innocent and pure looking Bai Yu.

Bai Lin nodded in satisfaction at her handiwork before exhorting her daughter multiple times to act behaved in front of the demon king. Yin Mei nodded. Of course, she wasn't the original owner of the body and even if she ate the gall bladders of a hundred bears she still wouldn't have the courage to behave out of line in front of the story's villain.

The mother and daughter and pair soon met up with Bai Yu's father, the chief of the rabbit clan. He was slightly older than Bai Lin, at about 350 to 400 years old, and looked like a handsome uncle, also possessing the good looks of the rabbit clan, with snow white hair and red eyes. Because he didn't have the inherent bloodline of the Jade Rabbit, his eye color was slightly different to the light green color that Bai Lin and Bai Yu possessed. The majority of the rabbit clan had black or red eyes, and it was Bai Lin and Bai Yu who were the exception.

Exiting the peaceful and sunny Jade Bamboo Valley and passing the misty illusion barrier, the outside world was completely different. Dark jagged mountains pierced the sky, and the world was wreathed in darkness. This area of the demon territory was always night, not once seeing the light of day. This was an area under the direct control of the demon king, separate from the rest of the world. Although the demon king also had a castle in the royal capital, he spent most of his time in the castle here instead, in closed seclusion. Yin Mei personally felt that this was all way too cliche, exactly the sort of place one would think a demon king would reside in, but she didn't dare comment on the demon lord's tastes.

The palace was near the top of the mountain that the Jade Bamboo Valley bordered. Walking normally as a human, it'd take several hours to reach, not mentioning the numerous protective barriers in place. As for the rabbit clan, well known for their speed and agility, it would take at most thirty minutes even if they weren't trying.

While the family of three made their way up the mountain, Yin Mei pulled up the memories and information on the demon king. Their current demon king was a member of the snake clan, called She Ming, and had been reigning for thousands of years already. He was only half a step away from achieving divinity and leaping through the dragon gate. She wouldn't say to his face that she was already labelling him as a pedophile. But, with these thousand year old cultivators, as long as they looked handsome, no one would protest it when they got together with the female lead.

As for why the demon king had taken an interest in the female lead, it was initially because the female lead's innate physique, the Pure Yin Physique, was really compatible for dual cultivation. Putting it not so nicely, she was the perfect furnace. If the demon king was able to obtain her, then he would be able to ascend in the next few decades without any worry.

Initially the demon king didn't think much of the strength of a little girl in a small kingdom, and only sent some minions to go after her, like all villains in these stories do. After being thwarted multiple times, his interest had been perked, and he decided to take a look for himself what this little girl was like.

Of course, he fell in love at first sight and started a love rival relationship with the male lead. In the end, when the male and female leads ascended to the upper realms, the demon king pushed himself to ascend as well but failed and died.

Yin Mei nodded. Such was the fate of a villainous love interest! But, she didn't feel any real pity for the demon king. After all, Bai Yu's fate was much more tragic. To top it off, the demon king didn't help Bai Yu at all, even though she was a member of a clan that had served him loyally since he became king. But, Yin Mei didn't hold a grudge over this. In the first place, she wasn't actually Bai Yu and hadn't experienced her death, and in the second place, she understood the thought process of this sort of character. Not only had Bai Yu run away from her responsibilities as a member of a rabbit clan, she even tried multiple times to kill the furnace that the demon king had been trying to obtain.

The demon king wasn't any sort of nice person. Not mentioning his identity as a thousand year old snake demon, he was also the ruler of the demon territory, that prized strength above all else. Cruel, cold-blooded, and heartless.

The more Yin Mei thought about it, the less she wanted to meet the man.

She could only comfort herself with the knowledge that he was truly good to the servants that faithfully followed him. Can't betray him no matter what! Must be completely loyal!

Only by thinking these things, was she able to completely suppress her urge to run away.

Entering the palace, there weren't very many guards, at least from what Yin Mei could see. This was probably because they were all hidden, and Yin Mei didn't have the ability to detect them. Although Bai Yu was known as a very talented cultivator, she was, after all, still a member of the younger generation and only 16 years old, so it wasn't weird if she wasn't able to detect the presences of the demon king's elite hidden guards.

The three rabbit demons entered the demon king's private bedroom. Actually, a cultivator of the demon king's level actually didn't need to eat or sleep, but that didn't mean having a bedroom was totally useless. Yin Mei felt that even if the demon king didn't sleep in here, it was enough just to satisfy the eyes. She looked around, feeling that the grand royal palace of the demons was really different. Everything her eyes fell on was a precious treasure, oozing luxury and mysteriousness! For a commoner from the modern day, she could only inwardly sigh in amazement while appreciating everything.
