While other people transmigrated into novels, Lan Huaiyu transmigrated into a history book.
Of all the dynasties he could have ended up in, he had to land in the golden age of cultivation, a time of unrivaled talent and the peak of cultivation's historical development. He had barely arrived when demonic cultivators captured him and locked him in a woodshed. There, he met a figure who had an entire research topic devoted to him in the history books: the Demon Venerable Wen Lou.
Demon Venerable Wen Lou was a ruthless killer. Even in an age full of heroes, he had reigned supreme, slaughtering his way through an entire generation and causing countless cultivation techniques to be lost, with later generations going into decline.
Lan Huaiyu was devastated. Was he really going to die here today?
Fortunately, Heaven had left him a way out. The Wen Lou he met was the younger, not-yet-grown-up version of the Demon Venerable.
To get closer to the Demon Venerable and stay alive, Lan Huaiyu decided to abandon the righteous path and become a demonic cultivator.
Lan Huaiyu thought: I've gone this far for the Demon Venerable. Surely he can't still kill me.

After arriving here, Lan Huaiyu only wanted to stay alive, so he did his best to avoid every major historical event.
Instead, one cultivation big shot after another came looking for him, urging him not to cultivate demonic arts.
The Demon King invited him to live in the demon realm. The leader of the righteous path promised to stake half a lifetime's reputation on keeping him safe. The world's greatest healer offered to cleanse his marrow and remake his bones. An heir to a great clan overcame every obstacle to beg him to join the family register...
Lan, forcibly bound to the Demon Venerable, Huaiyu: Sorry, I can't.
And so rumors spread through the cultivation world that Lan Huaiyu was banging his head against a wall for the Demon Venerable.
When Demon Venerable Wen Lou heard, he came to find him and pinned him to the bed. I like you too.
Lan Huaiyu: ?

Gu Xuejun was born with a madness that plagued him. As a child, his adoptive parents sold him to a crooked alchemist, and after three years as a human test subject, he brutally murdered the man and wiped out his adoptive family for good measure. As a young man, he had no way to continue his studies, and a villain pushed him into the terrifying demonic realm, a place like the depths of hell. Demonic cultivators tormented him day and night, even throwing him into a pool of corpse-dissolving liquid.
Fortunately, there is always a way out. Not only did he survive, the water in the pool awakened his bloodline.
In just ten years, he rose to the throne of Demon Venerable and slaughtered the people of the world.
The killing only stopped many years later, when he died and his spirit dissipated.
Then he opened his eyes and discovered he had been reborn.
