I, Wang Luowei, traveled to the "healthy, sunny, and positive" world of Hengsan, and became the Herrscher of Corrosion that I hate the most! Never mind, since I am here, I'll make the best of it. My family, let's take a look at the world in the distance. Wait, where is this? Siberia in 2000?

In her third year living in this steampunk world, Ciel gained the ability to simulate both the past and the future.

These simulations turned into a game where she could act without restraint, and after countless trials, real life became a replica she could navigate as though speedrunning it.

Churches, potions, mutations, the Old Gods, witches, sealed artifacts… none of these have anything to do with Ciel. She’s just an ordinary girl who wishes for a peaceful life.

She just happens to be particularly skilled at snuffing out danger before it even begins.

A non-traditional cultivation novel featuring a bold female protagonist. Proceed with caution if this isn’t your cup of tea!

[Mind Reading + System + Transmigration into a Book + Cultivation + Group Pampering]

Xiao Xiao unexpectedly dies and transmigrates into a cannon fodder substitute in a Mary Sue-style cultivation novel where the Female Protagonist’s admirers eventually gouge out her Golden Core to save the Female Protagonist.

Luckily, she has a system. Unluckily, it’s not a Comeback System but a useless Retrieval System.

What else could she do? She can only keep her head down, avoid forming her Golden Core, and dodge the tragic fate of being gutted.

[“Master is so amazing, yet he was tragically taken over by someone just to save his disciple. And that disciple, upon learning the truth, not only refused to seek revenge but even tangled up with the perpetrator. How ungrateful!”]

Master: ?!

[“First Senior Brother is a peerless talent and should have become a great Sword Immortal. But to save the one he loves, his Life-Bound Sword broke, and his dantian was destroyed. He ended up as a useless cripple.”]

First Senior Brother: ?!!

[“Second Senior Brother had it even worse. He wasn’t skilled in combat and only loved refining pills. Because of his low combat ability, he became a pawn in the Male and Female Protagonists’ schemes. He was captured to threaten Third Junior Sister, who refused to bow her head and was brutally dismembered.”]

Second Senior Brother: ?!!!

[“Sigh, and you thought she was your bestie? Turns out she’s been hooking up with your fiancé behind your back. They’re even planning to team up to get rid of you!”]

Cannon Fodder 1: F***!

[“And the other cannon fodders, who should have had brighter futures, ended up…”]

Various Cannon Fodders: !!!

Xiao Xiao initially just wanted to use the system to quietly watch the drama unfold. Who would’ve thought the cannon fodders, originally supposed to fawn over the Female Protagonist, would start flocking around her?
