Synopsis

Just started getting ratings, and who knows if they'll rise later.

“Both virgins + fictional historical setting + coming-of-age romance + childhood sweethearts + sweet and doting + 1v1 + four-year age gap + a touch of wuxia”

She thinks he is her master, but he is the one who belongs to her.

[Pure-love yandere]

Everyone knows that Hua Wuxia, leader of the Demon Cult, is a demon who clawed his way out of a mountain of corpses and a sea of blood.

He is cold and callous, ruthless and cruel, decisive in his killing, and always several steps ahead.

Until she willingly offers herself to the demon.

And the demon is willing to be her divine older brother.

She grew up in the demon’s lair, and everything she knows was taught to her by him.

He teaches her to read and write, to fight, and to ride and shoot, but never to observe the rules of propriety or feel shame.

She knows nothing of the difference between men and women, so she gets close to him without a care.

He could have raised her to be his plaything, keeping her by his side and making sure he was all she ever saw.

But he can't bring himself to do it.

It turns out he’s a pure-love yandere after all.

He waits ten years for her to grow up. Her heart and eyes are filled with him, yet she knows nothing about love between a man and a woman.

He lures her closer, step by step, but with every approach, the only one who loses more and more control is him.

As it turns out, the one who has been raised, tamed, and willingly kept captive all along is him.

[Reading Guide]

1. The story begins when she is nine and he is five. It isn't very long.

2. The heroine is innocent and carefree, inexperienced, alluring without realizing it, and has a streak of chivalry deep down.

3. The hero is cold and violent to outsiders, a “demon” in the eyes of the righteous martial sects.

With her, he's clingy and terrified she'll leave him. He is incredibly tender and restrained. His possessiveness is intense, but he fears frightening her, so he keeps all his desire and yearning beneath his cool exterior.

5. No transmigration, no reborn characters, no golden finger.

Historical Romance, Historical Romance, Historical Romance!!! You Have No Idea How Long It's Been Since I Read One 😂

I can’t find any good historical romances! Preferably not too long, no more than a little over a million words. It has to be good! Ideally, the heroine is reborn or transmigrates, gets revenge on the scumbags, and has a doting hero. One-on-one romance, both leads faithful to each other!!! No angst! A little angst at most! The hero must not have any other consorts.

As usual, I'm giving myself a five-star review. My darlings, give the male and female leads a chance, come and take a look ❤️ This is the first time I've opened a new account, so there's no volume yet. I don't know if it will increase. 🤦

It's incredibly good!!! Some comments mentioned that the author didn't write about the male lead's part, but I think that part made the female lead's character more three-dimensional and interesting. It wasn't just a chronological account, and it also introduced many supporting characters who might appear later. It's really good for fans of female leads. Author, keep up the good work!

The female lead lives in the utopia created for her by the male lead. She's innocent, lovable, and the childhood sweetheart dynamic is so sweet! So good! 😳😳😳😳

It's really good, with a very heartwarming feel. The male lead takes good care of the female lead, and the aunt is also great. When I first started watching, I thought the aunt would disapprove of Hua Wuxia and Wan'er being together, focusing on his revenge, but she does care about his feelings. Wan'er is Hua Wuxia's salvation, lalala! (It's such a pity the aunt died).

It's really good! The plot was unexpected; I wasn't very interested at first, thinking it would be like most clichéd stories, but it turned out the opposite. People said the male lead wouldn't appear in the middle, but wait, isn't this a female-oriented story? Of course, it revolves around the female lead. As mentioned at the beginning, the female lead is clueless about love; she doesn't even know what love is. Anyway, it's really good! I also want to ask, will the male lead die later on? 🥺

It's a great show! The female lead is adorable from childhood to adulthood; I didn't get enough of her childhood scenes. The aunt is so sweet! 🥺 The male lead is also good, and the supporting characters are all very well-developed.

This book isn't your average rebirth or transmigration novel. It doesn't have any cheat codes or special abilities; it's a very novel genre. If you're looking for a rebirth or transmigration story, you should definitely check this one out. The writing is excellent, the plot is fresh and original, it's really good, and it's a genuine pure romance.
