I Became the Cannon Fodder Villain and the Heroine Fell for Me

Qin Yunshuo wakes up inside a fantasy novel—not as the hero, but as a doomed villain destined to bully the protagonist, die mid-story, and have his corpse desecrated. Armed with a system that rewards him for playing the perfect antagonist, he commits to his villainous role to grow stronger and rewrite his fate. There's just one problem: the more ruthlessly he acts, the more the heroine's eyes linger on him with an emotion that definitely isn't hatred. What starts as survival quickly spirals into something far more dangerous than any cultivation battle.
