I Transmigrated a Millennial Ago to Murder the Villainous Male Lead!

Yan Ruo had it all. From a devoted, loving husband to a precious daughter who was her world, to being the cherished daughter of a mighty general and a divine healer who cured plagues that could have halved the empire’s population in an instant. She was everything anyone envied—and Li Zhenyu loved her more than life itself. Once a lowly servant in her household, he had grown up beside her—quiet, loyal, always a few steps behind with eyes full of love for her. But in a world where servants were forbidden from loving their masters, Yan Ruo never once looked his way. Instead, she was betrothed to the Crown Prince of Xiangdu—the capital of the flourishing Yan Empire and the man who became her husband. And that’s when the villainous male lead arose. "If I can’t have you, then no one will!" In a single lifetime, Li Zhenyu snatched every joy from her fingers. He slaughtered her family, razed her kingdom to dust, and cast the world into chaos by awakening the most feared cultivation of all: the Devil’s Bone. But the afterlife never came for her… Instead, Yan Ruo woke in a world unlike her own. Gone were the blazing spirit soldiers, golden flame battalions, beast cavalry, and floating sword fortresses. Here, there were only horse-drawn carriages, bamboo scrolls, palace concubines, silk-robed nobles, and whispers of the old gods. And it was then she realized—Li Zhenyu had tampered with the wheel of fate. He had sent her soul a thousand years into the past, into a timeline she wasn’t meant to survive. She now inhabits the body of Wen Yuyan, the frail, cursed, mute, and sickly fourth daughter of a revered general. Born with snow-white hair and marked as an ill omen, Wen Yuyan was locked away in the coldest courtyard, abandoned even by her mother. But Yan Ruo was never one to be overlooked. She’ll prove to the Wen family that she’s not the worthless Fourth Young Miss they cast aside. And as for Li Zhenyu—the villain in both timelines—this time, she’ll kill him before he ever becomes a threat. Before he learns to cultivate. Before he touches the Devil’s Bone. Before he dares love her again. One year. One life. One chance to rewrite destiny. This time, she won’t hesitate to drive a sword through his skull.
