Cold, stunning beauty vs. sickly, obsessive pawn
As the sect leader of the Hehuan Sect, I brew the most potent drugs and commit the gravest sins.
When I first took Rong Jin in, he was just a raggedly dressed boy with clear eyes.
I gave him fine clothes and used him to test my medicines, but he thought it was a reward.
I fed him bone-eroding poisons and forced potent aphrodisiacs down his throat, watching him sink again and again between desire and agony, until he was utterly broken.
Only after the drugs repeatedly tore apart his dignity did he understand:
I had chosen him simply because his life was worthless, and nobody would care if he died.
It wasn't until the righteous sects killed me that I learned this was a world inside a book, and I was an evil supporting character destined to die early.
After my death, the boy whose dignity I had personally crushed became a devil who would destroy the world, slaughtering the immortal sects and bringing the cultivation world to its knees.
In the end, he stood before my memorial tablet and said coldly:
"My only regret is that I couldn't kill you with my own hands back then."
I was the most painful mark on his dark fate.
I was the one who had pushed him into the abyss.
I was reborn, returning to the night before we had made enemies of each other for good.
Looking at the boy chained to the medicine-testing bed, I unlocked his shackles.
"Go. The farther you get from me, the better."
I thought he would run without looking back.
But he said, "I have nowhere to go but here."
My heart softened, and I let him stay, but forbade him from testing medicines again.
Instead, I offered a large reward to recruit a new test subject. In the end, a handsome man volunteered to test a love gu.
But on the night of the test, someone suddenly burst through the door.
Rong Jin's gaze was cold. He snatched the love gu and planted it directly in his own heart meridian.
Then he grabbed my wrist and planted the other gu in me.
"If we're testing it, then test it with me."
Me: ?
He looked straight at me, his voice low and indifferent.
"You said... when testing medicine, you should find someone whose life is cheap and who can take a beating."
"Who in this world... is more suitable than me?"
"Before, you only ever used me."
Me: ?!!
So he had been reborn too.
-
She would never know that in that dark, suffocating medicine room, every time he swallowed a drug, every time he struggled to hold on to the last scraps of his dignity under her cold gaze, all he thought about was the day he would make her repay everything she had done, with interest, bit by bit.
For example, pinning her down on this very bed and making her taste desire that overwhelmed her and love that set her ablaze.
Both leads' first time, happy ending.
Third-person narration. Wicked woman vs. mad dog. The female lead is the most beautiful woman in the story.
