Word Is, the Demon Cult Leader Turns Defeat into Victory but Can't Bring Himself to Hurt the Female Traitor

Passerby A: "Have you heard? The leader of the Moon Plucking Sect knew full well that his beloved maid was a spy for the orthodox sects, but willingly walked into her trap and got taken down. He's probably already locked away in the Nanshan Sect's secret prison."

Passerby B: "You're a bit behind on the news. I heard the leader of the demonic sect isn't an idiot either. He had a backup plan all along, and now he's not only escaped, he's also caught the traitor."

>> Each story in the series can be read on its own.

>> No neat happy endings, just vinegar to dip in.

>> The male lead suffers, but he's not a scumbag.

Theme: A lighthearted romantic fantasy
