Master, How Did You Turn Into a Snake?

In his twenty-three years, Rong Tan's only hobby has been keeping snakes. Whenever he sees a post about snakes, he can't help clicking on it.

So when he came across a novel where the author wrote that one of the main characters, a snake, had spent the entire night with that thing left exposed, he screamed in horror.

“You can't do that! It'll get necrotic!”

He went to the comments and wrote a thousand words about snake behavior and things to watch out for. At the end, he said there was no need to thank him for the information. Then he transmigrated into the novel.

Rong Tan at first: Σ(°Д°;

Rong Tan after discovering he'd become the snake: *(^o^)/*

Rong Tan initially wanted to turn into his real form and give himself a good pet, but he couldn't transform...

Not only could he not use his original body's magic, he also discovered, to his horror, that the original owner had hidden his identity as a demon and lived in the Sword Sect. The people here hated demons with a passion. If his identity was exposed, he'd be done for.

The original owner had an apprentice. He was very handsome, but he carried a sword on his back all day and looked at Rong Tan with icy eyes.

Rong Tan figured that if his identity was exposed, his apprentice would be the first to kill him. He was relieved that he couldn't turn back into his true form. If he couldn't master the magic and got stuck as a snake, he'd be in trouble.

Then, on the second day after transmigrating, he turned into a snake right in front of his apprentice.

With a plop, a milky-white, translucent little snake landed in Yue Liansheng's hand, anxiously coiling up as Yue Liansheng stared straight at him.

Rong Tan screamed inwardly. Help! Is he going to kill me?

Yue Liansheng pinched his tail and gave him a sinister smile. “Master, how did you turn into a snake?”

Rong Tan had it all wrong. Yue Liansheng had no intention of killing him. He wanted to play with him until he broke!

Taking advantage of Rong Tan's inability to turn back into a human, Yue Liansheng hung him from his sword like a tassel and coiled him around his hand, insisting he wrap himself around his wrist.

Rong Tan endured Yue Liansheng's bullying for several days. At last, he turned back into a human, hurriedly packed his things, and prepared to run away. But the moment he stepped outside, he was stopped.

Yue Liansheng stood at his door, smiling as he threatened him. “If Master doesn't want his identity as a demon exposed, he'd better turn back into a snake.”

Rong Tan was shocked. Wouldn't turning into a snake get him discovered by the Sword Sect?

But he had no choice but to give in.

When no one was looking for him, he'd reluctantly turn into a snake and coil around Yue Liansheng's hand. Sometimes he'd doze off and fail to coil around it, and Yue Liansheng would deliberately wake him up and make him do it again.

Before long, whenever he saw Yue Liansheng, it became muscle memory: he'd turn into a snake and coil around his hand.

Until one day, he realized Yue Liansheng's hand was reaching somewhere it shouldn't.

He turned back into a human in a panic. “What are you doing?”

Yue Liansheng leaned toward him. “I heard snakes have two. I want to see if it's true.”

Rong Tan: “!”

“Don't come any closer!”

Later, Rong Tan was left sprawled out like a limp snake after being thoroughly worn out. “Y-Yue Liansheng, be gentle. You'll break it.”

Yue Liansheng chuckled. “Master has two. It won't break.”

A snake-tailed master who lives in fear of being discovered and an apprentice who loves being wrapped around by his master.
