Stepped Over Her Vicious Stepsister To Become The True Bigshot!
Gu Man, who transmigrated from ancient times, woke up in the body of the Gu family’s second daughter. As soon as she woke up, she saw the fiance of the original body who had hooked up with her stepsister. Faced with the scumbag’s confident questioning, disgusted gaze and a slap to her face, Gu Man’s reaction was to return a fierce blow to him. She hit him until he was dizzy and knelt to the ground, his lower body covered in cold sweat. Gu Man only realized that a video of her walking into the room had been leaked after she left, and the matter had begun to spread rapidly. Countless people insulted Gu Man and called her a mistress. Faced with a two-faced stepsister, a malicious and deceiving stepmother who climbed her way up from being a mistress, and a father who couldn’t tell wrong from right and treated her as more of an adopted daughter, as well as those stupid onlookers who didn’t know the truth of the matter and called her a country girl… Gu Man ignored them all. The top scorer in the college entrance examination, top hacker, divine doctor, financial tycoon… All kinds of identities were attached to a single person. Gu Man relied on her own strength to ruthlessly slap them all back in the face! The noble Xiang family’s eldest son, a powerful man in the capital, even declared to the public that his wife was mischievous, and that he would take the blame if she made a mistake. Just when everyone was wondering who this sweet wife of his was, the entertainment headlines published a photo of him holding his sweet wife as they walked in and out of a high-end hotel. The woman in the picture was Gu Man! Xiang family’s son: Everyone, meet my wife!
Drawing Cards With My Lifespan: Starting By Gamifying Reality
One day, the whole world gamified in the eyes of Su Mo.
Not only could he use his lifespan to draw cards, but he could also see the hidden attributes of every item in life.
As such, when he looked at the hanging lamp above him, he saw:
[Item: An old hanging lamp]
[Hint: It will drop after one minute and seven seconds.]
When he looked at his right arm, he saw:
[Item: The right arm of a young man]
[Hint: The grip strength of his right arm is 3% stronger than that of his left arm due to continuous training.]
When he looked at the ginseng on the table, he saw:
[Item: A stalk of wild ginseng]
[Hint: It is tinted with a layer of source power. Consuming it could make you feel energized.]
…
Excited, Su Mo rushed to meet his girlfriend, who was a school beauty and had just agreed to date him.
He then saw a bright red HP bar on top of her head.
[Item: A very thirsty fox demon]
[Hint: You might not be able to put up a fight against her.]
In my previous life, I was half a move short and ultimately failed to reach the summit.
Having traveled back to the past, this time... I want to become the strongest in this world!
To become the strongest in this world, one only needs three simple steps:
1. Pick up a newly-transferred Demonic Sect Enchantress off the streets.
2. Subdue and vanquish the demon.
3. Take her cultivation technique for myself.
Awesome! I'm already invincible!
————————
Years later, Yan Yu, who had earned the title of "the strongest," was interviewed on television:
Host: To whom do you want to give thanks for your success today?
Yan Yu: I'd like to thank a very important woman to me.
Host (eyes lighting up): Oh, is she your wise and virtuous wife?
Yan Yu: No, consider her a stepping stone, I suppose.
Host (wiping sweat): Then... what about the other members of your team? They must have helped you as well, right?
Yan Yu: ... How could there possibly be only one stepping stone on the path to godhood?
Was he a pawn that would be disposed at the end or would he reach the end of the board and flip the whole board?
.............................
It all began with a nightmare…..
A nightmare where corpses were strewn across the vast land and blood flowed like a river all around.
Roy, a normal 20-year-old college student filled with hope and aspirations, found his world breaking apart, just a day after he had a terrible nightmare.
The very next day, Roy died in an unfortunate train accident and reopened his eyes in the world of the modern fantasy book he had read.
Dawn Of Legend.
A world filled with myths, legends, and dangers lurking all around.
Behind the beautiful world filled with opportunities lies a grim prospect of destruction threatening the stability and peace of the current generation.
And in such a world, he woke up in the body of an extra called Lucas whose existence seemed to be quite negligible as there was no mention of a character named Lucas.
He did not know whether this man even survived the first arc or did he even reached the academy safely.
Since most of the details are omitted, it would not surprise him if this man had died somewhere in the beginning or middle of the plot.
Finding himself in the world of the novel, countless questions come to his mind.
Is this transmigration just a mere coincidence, or are there any external factors involved in it?
Does the world have some plans for him, or is he some kind of pawn who could be disposed of, when he becomes worthless?
And the most important thing, will the future events follow as mentioned in the novel? Can a mere rabbit survive in a den filled with wolves?
Roy, who had read countless novels, knew better than anyone else that there would surely be some sort of butterfly effort that might change the plot, and the world that needs to be saved by the protagonist might be destroyed due to a change in plot.
No… No….Let's think about unpleasant things later.
As long as I can survive and gain a stable footing, I can work out something.
Roy, who was now Lucas, decided to give his all to survive in this harsh world and get stronger so that he would not get swept away by the adversaries that the world was going to face in the future.
With fierce tenacity and grit to live, Lucas strides ahead, trying his best to avoid the bleak prospect of the world ending and along the journey, searching for the secrets behind his transmigration, if there are any.

English is not my native language nor I am good at it. Sometimes I have to rely on Google Translator to translate some sentences. Still, I try my very best to write as smoothly as possible.
If you find a mistake, please comment as soon as you read because once the novel becomes long, it becomes very difficult to read all the pile-up comments in one place.
……………
When fate chooses you to be a stepping stone, for its chosen son to shine - what do you do in return.
Accept it? Wait to die? Hope that the next life will be better?
Or fight back. Against fate, against those protagonist, and against everyone.
Ali Arya, the handsome and happy young master of the Arya family.
The man who had everything - a loving family, a childhood sweetheart, a friend who's more like a brother, and followers who'll not hesitate to die for him.
Yet all this love and luxury was only supposed to last until the day he met his fateful enemy - the chosen child of destiny.
But as they say, if Good has a God, then the darkness has a devil.
And the Devil did found him.
[Ding - The Great Villain System 2.0 is here.]
[Worry not oh pitiful prey, for I'll turn you into the finest hunter in creation.]
[Devil smiles staring at the blind canvas of this planet.]
[Paint it red.]
From then on Ali started his counterattack against the so called will of the world and fought against all the chosen sons and his enemies.
The roles had reversed now. Those protagonists can just be his stepping stones now.
As for those heroines, well since these heroes like snatching the girls from others, he shall let them have a taste of what it feels like to be on the other side. To be abandoned and be green'd.

There is a fine line between right and wrong... and Stellar Cross is tethering on the edge of falling on the sinful side.
...
Stellar Cross, a self-confessed wallflower and always blending in the background. An unpolished gem waiting to blind people with her sparkle so bright and beautiful.
Beau Spencer, an heir and a ruthless businesseman, imprisoned in his responsibilities.
Holden Knight, a darkness who found his light.
At the end of her journey, would Stellar finally found what she's been searching for?
[Some parts of this book blurs the line between right and wrong. However, those that keep an open mind and stick with it might not be disappointed.]
...
Stellar felt vindictive. She wanted to break Beau's heart the same way he broke hers.
Suddenly, a wild thought entered Stellar's mind. The only way to vex the heck out of Beau was to date a person nobody could have—just like him.
As if a light bulb switched on inside Stellar's head illuminating her path, she glanced up at Brother Holden and determination painted her face.
Stellar was set on one thing: she would seduce her brother's friend and may the Almighty forgive her for stealing his disciple.
