The Mad, Beautiful Demon Lord Slept for Ten Thousand Years. Did I Wake Her?

Bai Mumu is a junior disciple in her sect. Because her aptitude is terrible, her senior brothers bully her and throw her into a dangerous forbidden zone. On the brink of death, she stumbles into a mysterious barrier and comes upon a woman in black, fast asleep. Pei Xi opens her eyes, amusement in her voice. “Where did you come from, little one? How dare you disturb my sleep?” The woman, who calls herself a Demon Venerable, asks Bai Mumu to accompany her on a tour of the mortal world and help her find a few scattered scales along the way. But to everyone else, Bai Mumu is still the same useless pushover they have always known. When her senior brother comes looking for trouble again, she beats him until he’s crawling on the ground. A furious elder arrives to avenge his disciple, only for her to wipe out his cultivation with a wave of her hand. An elder’s cultivation destroyed: the sect is in an uproar overnight. Everyone is convinced that Bai Mumu has been possessed by an evil demon, and swears to get rid of her as soon as possible. The commotion brings the Sect Leader in person. But the moment he sees Pei Xi slowly materialize at Bai Mumu’s side, he drops to his knees. Each experience that overturns everything she thought she knew only makes Bai Mumu more curious. Just who... is Pei Xi? Even a Demon Venerable... shouldn’t have this kind of power, should she? Pei Xi merely says, her tone casual, “Little one, I just want you to show me around. Don’t overthink it.” Later, one of Pei Xi’s old friends comes to visit. Seeing the little follower at Pei Xi’s side, whose aptitude has been tempered into something quite decent, the friend kindly offers: “Let her join my sect. I’ll have someone search for your scales.” “She’s having a hard time following you, too.” It seems like the perfect solution for everyone. But then... Pei Xi pulls Bai Mumu into her arms, her gaze icy. “She’s mine.” “No one is taking her away.” 【Timid, well-behaved cannon-fodder bottom X fiercely protective, unhinged Demon Venerable top】 Reader’s Guide: 1.
