Chapter 3: Transmigrated to a Novel (1)
In the morning, within a village, the door to a family’s house was pushed open and a delicate-looking woman walked out of the room.
She wore simple and neat clothes, but revealed an elegant and noble manner. She seemed to be a woman coming from a highly educated and refined family, incompatible with the almost worn-down thatched cottage.
Even the monkeys crouching outside the trees opened their eyes widely and stared at the woman in high spirits.
That woman didn’t notice at all and gracefully walked to the center of the yard, standing where the sun shone the brightest.
Then, she stretched her body, not caring for her image and started to exercise.
“Oh my waist ah — If I keep sleeping on this kind of bed, my waist will break one day.”
“…”
The monkeys on the trees tilted their heads slightly and almost fell off the branches.
“Lady Ye Yu is awake?”
A voice suddenly rang in the yard and the door to the master bedroom was opened. An elderly lady who had white hair but a hearty spirit walked out.
Ye Yu who stood in the center of the yard turned around and said, “Aunt Wang.”
“You’re preparing to go out and set up the stall now?”
“Yep, I’m leaving in a little.”
“You don’t want morning tea again?”
“…” After Ye Yu recalled the inedible food the aunt had attempted to cook, she immediately shivered and shook her head. “When I enter the devil city, I will casually find a place to eat.”
“Hey, be careful on your way.”
Aunt Wang who was ‘politely rejected’ walked back into the room in regret.
Ye Yu who was in the yard then sighed.
After exercising, she returned to her own room too.
She closed the wooden door behind her and after confirming there were no movements in the yard, Ye Yu walked to the bed and took out the item she hid by the headboard.
Had anyone in this world saw what was in Ye Yu’s hand, they would think the item was strange, whether it was the texture or appearance. But if it was in the normal world Ye Yu was in two months ago, everyone would definitely recognize it.
A smartphone.
What a pity that they can’t call it ‘smartphone’ now.
Ye Yu tapped on the screen and stared at the time, date, and weather, feeling helpless.
Then, she unlocked the phone and it revealed an app where she was reading her novels from.
She tapped back and forth on the menu, trying persistently; but, it was no surprise that there was no response.
Ye Yu sighed and placed the phone in the secret pocket she sewed on the edge of her pants.
——
With a smartphone whose battery, time, date, weather, and even the novel reading app never changed, it was no different than just a brick.
What made it more unusual was the first chapter of the novel she was reading.
The world she transmigrated over was according to the book in which she was reading — 《Night isn’t evil》.
That’s right. Ye Yu transmigrated and she had been in this world for nearly 2 months.
2 months ago, when she received a call from Su Miao regarding 《Night isn’t evil》, she accidentally slipped and fell down the stairs. She originally thought that she would’ve left the world in such a tragic state, but she would never expect for a blackhole to appear where she was about to land, just before making contact with the ground.
Ye Yu was sucked into the blackhole with nowhere to hide and she sunk into unconsciousness as well.
When she woke up, she was in this completely unfamiliar world.
Aunt Wang who took her in said that she had found her near the stream behind the village. During that time, she was wearing bizarre clothes and clutching a rectangular item that looked worthless in her hands.
After the widowed Aunt Wang brought Ye Yu back home, she helped Ye Yu settle down. Ye Yu who was basically an orphan in her past life quickly got used to this world, relying on her powerful survival skills.
Plus, after interacting with Aunt Wang and reading on the e-book about the strange 《Night isn’t evil》, Ye Yu basically concluded that she transmigrated into this self-cultivation and revenge novel.
What a pity that she was an unregistered resident.
Thankfully, there was no census register policy in this world.
When Ye Yu was worrying about her livelihood for the future, she realized what the only benefit of transmigrating over was.
As long as she kept her phone on her, she was able to ‘see’ any one’s entire life mapped out in front of her as well as their roles in the world, whoever she interacted with.
This was the main reason why she kept the phone on her despite it being a brick and useless.
——
Therefore, she used this to find herself a job: fortune-telling.
After a long and difficult trek for about an hour along, Ye Yu finally arrived at the closest town near the village.
The capital of the devil city, Devil City.
It was also where the devil palace was.
After Ye Yu walked into the city, Ye Yu glanced in the direction of the devil palace.
According to Aunt Wang, the world was unfolding according to the first chapter of 《Night isn’t evil》.
In the eyes of the devil city’s civilians, there was only one young devil emperor within the Imperial Palace and the official who saved the youth devil emperor from the disaster of the devil palace at that time — the young devil emperor’s uncle, devil city’s general, Xuan Bin.
