The original author of the novel must have been a fan of Hero Jin, creating a tragic hero similar to Qiao Feng.
Of course, besides the main storyline with Pei Jinghou, there are other storylines.
For instance, the person who revealed Chai Fengyi’s real identity was none other than He Yutian, the notorious Poison Spider from Ghost Doctor Valley.
It was said that she was the wife of Ghost Doctor Yan Boqian and had learned some unfathomable poison techniques from him.
Others claimed she was merely a Medicine Man raised by the Ghost Doctor, constantly consuming all sorts of strange and violent poisons, with a single drop of her blood being lethal!
Regardless of her true identity, there was no doubt about the "poison" that pervaded her being.
This Poison Spider was venomous, but her heart was even more toxic.
Her exposure of Chai Fengyi’s identity, followed by her slandering Pei Jinghou as a lustful traitor from the Previous Dynasty and a martial arts degenerate, was without much reason, except for the fact that Pei Jinghou was too upright and too heroic.
He Tiantian: ...This probably counts as some kind of twisted idea.
Being in the mire themselves, they can’t stand to see others clean, scheming in every way to make others suffer too.
Now, He Tiantian has transmigrated into such a "twisted" poison woman.
Tch, this feeling, truly a bitter thrill.
And yet, Student Xiao D still says it’s some "good script"!
Insists on making her play the villain, is that really considered "good"?
"No need, no need, Tiantian, you don’t have to play the villain this time. I’ve told you, the mission this time is pretty good."
Feeling He Tiantian’s anger, Student Xiao D hurriedly resumed his serious tone in announcing the mission, "Ding! Mission release: Forge a brand-new storyline, create a whole new Martial World!"
He Tiantian was taken aback, "Forge a new storyline?"
She had time-traveled through so many novel worlds, but this was indeed the first time she encountered such a mission.
Feeling the relaxed aura emanating from He Tiantian’s Divine Soul, Student Xiao D jumped even more joyfully!
"Tiantian, didn’t I tell you? This mission is really great!"
"Hey, you don’t have to worry about being forced to play the villain anymore, and you don’t have to endure the disgust to maintain the original character setup!"
"This time you’re the female lead, and you can completely follow your own heart, play as you wish, whitewash as you want!"
"...Uh, although He Yutian has many dark spots and is not easy to whitewash, Tiantian, I believe in you. You definitely have a way to make her whitewash!"
Student Xiao D really had a lot of confidence in his partner.
He Tiantian, after all, was a true boss only a step away from being a villain.
Moreover, looking at her many time-traveling records, her manipulation of character roles was simply unrivaled.
Often times, Student Xiao D felt that no matter the unsolvable problems, He Tiantian could easily handle them.
Under her miraculous interpretations, certain extremely detestable characters could even become somewhat cute and playful.
Although Mrs. Ya, the Poison Spider, was indeed a wicked woman, Student Xiao D believed that their Tiantian would definitely find a way to whitewash.
He Tiantian, hearing Student Xiao D’s words, felt her excitement slowly subside.
Being able to obtain the female lead script without being forced into being a villain did indeed feel pretty good.
But for some reason, after rereading the script carefully and personally transmigrating into He Yutian’s body, He Tiantian had an inexplicable feeling.
She hadn’t completely merged with the original host’s body nor accepted all the memories, yet, she had touched some of the original host’s inner world.
Suddenly, He Tiantian had the ludicrous thought—
"He Yutian is indeed a malicious woman, and she truly did many wrong things!"
"But He Yutian herself doesn’t think she’s done anything wrong, and if it were the real He Yutian, even if she had the chance to whitewash, she might not agree to it!"
He Tiantian slowly voiced these thoughts, leaving Student Xiao D dumbfounded.
"What? Tiantian, what are you talking about?"
Student Xiao D stuttered, a bad feeling emerging from his core.
He couldn’t help but tremble slightly, "Tiantian, this time the system is not forcing you to be the villain, why, why are you—"
Although He Tiantian hadn’t been explicit, Student Xiao D felt that the current He Tiantian seemed to be "turning to the dark side."
It seemed like she genuinely wanted to be a vicious villain this time.
Student Xiao D suddenly felt confused.
Why be a bad person when she could whitewash?
As Student Xiao D was wrapped in doubt, He Tiantian’s voice reached his ears:
"He Yutian may not be a good person, but in the Martial World or the Imperial court, is there absolute good and evil, right and wrong?"
"Take for example the male lead Pei Jinghou’s biological mother, who, for her cause of restoration, did not hesitate to poison the Old Sect Leader of the Beggar Gang, not to mention collude with the Foreign Clan, attempting to subject the people of the Tianchao Dynasty to the trampling by Hulu invaders."
