Transmigrated Into The Arms Of The Heroine Of A Sadistic Novel - Chapter 7

Lin Yanyu had always considered herself a steady demon slayer, able to remain calm no matter how terrible her companions or how powerful her enemies.

However, ever since she spoke her first sentence to Feng Xianchen, a subconscious tendency to be hostile towards the other party had been brewing.

Just like now, she wasn’t just acting fierce towards Feng Xianchen to maintain her original persona; it was more like she was venting some emotion that she herself couldn’t quite explain.

After hissing, Lin Yanyu glared at Feng Xianchen again, and following this impulse, she scoffed, “Want to cling to this young master’s little beauty? You don’t deserve it!”

Feng Xianchen: “…”

“Why don’t I deserve it!” She immediately angrily hugged Tan Changxin’s arm, rested her face on it, and when looking down at the cat-form Lin Yanyu, a “humph” escaped her nose.

Seeing her genuinely “clinging” to Tan Changxin, Lin Yanyu felt her cat fur bristle.

The original owner’s possessiveness seemed to be affecting her. She now even wanted to transform into human form, drag Feng Xianchen out of the carriage, and give her a good beating.

Who knew that Tan Changxin would gently push Feng Xianchen away and slowly say, “The matter of resting your head on my arm cannot be known by your Senior Sister Zhuang she’ll be angry.”

Feng Xianchen instantly lost her anger, drooped her head like a startled quail, nodded, and pleaded quietly, “I’m sorry, Sister Changxin, it was me being tactless. Sister Changxin, you absolutely must keep it a secret for me!”

Lin Yanyu flicked her cat tail, her mood inexplicably becoming cheerful.

“Senior Sister Zhuang” was Feng Xianchen’s official romantic partner, Zhuang Jingwei, in the original text, and also Tan Changxin’s roommate. They were currently in the passionate phase of their relationship. However, Zhuang Jingwei came from a prestigious, rule-bound family, had strong controlling tendencies, and did not allow her lover to have overly intimate physical contact with other women.

However, just as Lin Yanyu finished flicking her tail, Tan Changxin forcefully rubbed her head: “You too, don’t call me that anymore. While we are in the human realm, I am your owner, not your ‘little beauty.’ You must change your address soon.”

Lin Yanyu meowed in response.

After receiving Tan Changxin’s guarantee of secrecy, Feng Xianchen looked at Lin Yanyu again, pursed her lips, and still couldn’t help but ask, “Are you truly the Young Master Xuanlin of the demon realm?”

Although Lin Yanyu planned to build a good relationship with her early on, she somehow just didn’t want to pay attention to this half-demon right now. After a few seconds of silence, she responded sullenly, “So what if I am?”

“No wonder you know about the ‘Blood-Stained White Jade.'” Feng Xianchen’s emotions came and went quickly. After sitting upright in her original position, she took out the half piece of white jade hidden on her body. “Then you should have the other half of the white jade, right?”

The half-piece of white jade in her palm was strung through with a red thread, translucent and flawless, with blood-colored streaks only spreading from the center, looking as if someone had dripped a single drop of blood into the middle of the jade.

Tan Changxin’s eyes changed, and she immediately cast a spell to set up a soundproofing barrier.

Seeing Lin Yanyu remain silent, Feng Xianchen continued, “One of Mother’s last wishes was for me to find a way to reconcile with my elder sister in the demon realm. So… after witnessing Sister Changxin being carried into the demon realm by a gust of demon wind, I secretly sneaked in alone without consulting any other demon slayer. My uncle once told me that the Lord of the Demon Realm is my other mother, and her blood flows in me, so even if I enter the demon realm alone, I won’t suffer any harm. If I encounter any danger, the mother who monitors the demon realm will surely come to protect me.”

Lin Yanyu hadn’t expected her to explain everything by herself, and she didn’t even care that there was an outsider beside her.

She thought for a moment and said with a contemptuous tone, “This young master does not acknowledge you, this weak half-demon sister.”

Whether in the era she lived in or in this book, the status of a half demon was quite awkward.

Half demons could neither manifest their awe-inspiring true forms like the demon race nor cultivate with human heart methods. When their emotions fluctuated greatly, they were also prone to losing their minds and attacking indiscriminately.

Feng Xianchen was mocked but did not get angry; instead, she said awkwardly, “My strength is indeed not as good as yours in the demon race, but Mother’s last wish still requires sister’s help to complete. Sister can spend some time with me before considering whether to acknowledge me.”

Lin Yanyu gave a heavy “humph,” buried her face back into Tan Changxin’s clothes, and ignored whatever the two said, beginning to ponder her plan for the human realm.

The original text was an abusive novel permeated with a sense of despair from beginning to end. The official romantic couple ended in tragedy early on, the two secondary couples’ emotional lines were also dreadful, and the ending was Tan Changxin assassinating her sister to take the throne, maintaining the peace and tranquility of the two realms in solitude.

Besides saving her own life, Lin Yanyu also wanted to change Tan Changxin’s fate. After all, they had now signed a lifetime contract, and they would either prosper together or suffer together. As long as the young girl lived well, her life wouldn’t be too bad either.

However, the original owner went offline too early in the text, leaving no reference for her development path. She could only follow the main plotline in her memory first, finding ways to stay by Tan Changxin’s side, preferably integrating into Tan Changxin’s social circle as soon as possible. This way, she could stay consistent with her words, actions, and values, and could serve as her long-term demon attendant.

She had to stay with Tan Changxin and become a companion that Tan Changxin could rely on.

The soundproofing barrier was still in place. While Lin Yanyu was contemplating the future, Tan Changxin was discussing the family sacrifice with Feng Xianchen. Finally, Feng Xianchen sighed.

“Sister Changxin, you should come back sooner. I’m really afraid that woman will take the opportunity to bully you again,” Feng Xianchen said helplessly. “Last year, if Senior Sister Zhuang hadn’t happened to come to the Tan family to find you, you might have been drugged and taken to a brothel by that woman!”

This was a plot point not elaborated on in the original text but involved another antagonist. Lin Yanyu immediately pricked up her ears for gossip and turned her head to listen to the information.

Tan Changxin, however, smiled, “It’s fine. This year, Father will gift me a protective magic artifact during the family sacrifice to celebrate my promotion to a ‘Purple Epiphyllum Rank’ demon slayer. With that artifact, I won’t be afraid of her.”

“Then, then aren’t you worried she might secretly tamper with it?” Feng Xianchen was a little anxious. “Although she’s your biological sister, she’s been jealous of you for so many years. She even dared to use an aphrodisiac on you, attempting to ruin your innocence. Your father also pretends to be blind and indulges her. What else wouldn’t she dare to do?”

“Since she is intent on humiliating me, constantly hiding is useless,” Tan Changxin shook her head. “She likes to bully the weak and fear the strong, so I just need to be stronger than her…”

“Who wants to bully this young master’s little beau… little owner?” Lin Yanyu deliberately asked.

“Alas, Sister, you don’t know, Sister Changxin has a half-sister who took her mother’s surname. She’s truly vicious!” Mentioning Tan Changxin’s sister, Feng Xianchen couldn’t help but interject, “Sister Changxin gets bullied every year she goes back. Last year it was a sleeping drug, the year before was a love poison, the year before that…”

“Feng Xianchen!” Tan Changxin frowned and interrupted, “Stop mentioning it.”

“I’m sorry, Sister Changxin, I know I was wrong!” Feng Xianchen immediately stopped talking, then kept winking at Lin Yanyu.

Lin Yanyu naturally knew about Tan Changxin being bullied. Even without Feng Xianchen’s suggestion, she would help deal with that psychologically twisted, malicious sister.

So she transformed into human form, embraced Tan Changxin with a stern face, patted her on the back forcefully, and said seriously, “Don’t be afraid! This young master will cover you this year!”
