The Return System: What Should I Do When My Unruly Disciple Keeps Trying to Bully His Master?
“Invest in a rebellious disciple and grow stronger. But my disciple keeps trying to kill me.”
Others take disciples to teach and pass on their knowledge.
Ye Tian takes disciples because he wants to stay alive.
After transmigrating into the body of a good-for-nothing peak master with no cultivation, he's forced to take in a genius disciple from the start. The System activates right afterward: [Give your disciple a gift, and receive a ten-thousandfold return! When your disciple cultivates, you get the same benefits!]
Ye Tian grins. Is this an easy win?
Then he sees the murderous intent, deep as a frigid abyss, beneath his new disciple Su Ye's “respectful” gaze.
And things start getting downright bizarre...
Ye Tian gives away half a piece of spirit cake and gets ten-thousand-year-old Earth Core Milk in return.
He drinks the poisonous soup his disciple “kindly” prepared, and his cultivation quietly rises by a level.
When his disciple “accidentally” leads him into a beast's jaws, he casually tosses out his firewood-cleaving knife. It turns into a streak of white light and instantly cuts down a horde of demons.
Su Ye is at his wit's end.
He's the reincarnation of a Demon Lord, and he became Ye Tian's disciple only to kill his master, take his sword, and return to his peak.
But no matter whether he uses poison, sets traps, or gets someone else to kill Ye Tian, his “good-for-nothing” master always finds an even more outrageous way to get out of it, then casually hands him a pile of world-shaking treasures.
“Rebellious disciple, this is an ancient divine pill I just ‘found.’ Go on, eat it.”
“This broken-looking sword seems decent. Take it for self-defense.”
“Trying to kill your master and destroy the sect? Keep at it. I believe in you.”
Years later, Su Ye stands with blood staining his demon armor, his sword pointed at the heavens, while countless demons bow behind him.
He looks back and sees that man still lounging lazily atop Qingyun Peak, waving his wine cup at him.
“Finished fighting? Come over here and tell your master what new way you've thought up to kill me today.”
In Su Ye's hand is a demon sword powerful enough to split mountains and rivers.
