I Woke Up to Find All My Disciples Had Betrayed Their Sect

[I take copyright protection seriously. I have authorized a professional litigation firm to handle copyright enforcement. Content-stealing media accounts are advised to think twice and avoid unpleasant legal disputes.]

Xi Yu, a mighty cultivator who once bathed the Demon Realm in blood, wakes up to find himself lying in an ice coffin, with several jars of pickled vegetables beside him. A frail pretty boy kneels before the coffin, kowtowing excitedly. “Congratulations, G-G-G-Great Ancestor, on emerging from seclusion!”

“???”

Only then does Xi Yu learn that the cultivation world has changed dramatically over the past few centuries. After he fell into a deep sleep, all his disciples betrayed their sect, and now each one has become a powerful force ruling over their own territory.

And he, once the revered founder of the Ruyi Sect, who could command the winds and rains, has only these things left under his care:

A dilapidated thatched hut (an illegal structure scheduled for demolition), an old yellow dog guarding the door (so old it can’t even chew bones anymore), and a disciple’s disciple from who knows how many generations down the line (a useless little thing who still hasn’t established his foundation).

Xi Yu: “...It’s not that bad. It really isn’t.”

·

Half a month later, a new sect claiming that “joining guarantees you’ll form a Golden Core” rises to prominence.

Cultivators passing by: “Ruyi Sect? Some no-name outfit. Do they really think forming a Golden Core is that easy?”

But no one expects that, as soon as the news spreads, the master of the Wenji Pavilion will return to the world, the Demon Lord of Beiming, who has long lived in Youdu, will travel thousands of miles to come, and even the old sect master of the Ten Thousand Swords Sect will respectfully offer Xi Yu tea and say, “Your disciple pays respects to you, Master!”

Everyone: “???”

Am I the one who’s weird, or has the whole world gone mad???

The Villain Transmigrates into the Protagonist’s Personal Attendant

Only after Xue Jiu dies does he learn that he was the villain in a novel. He worked himself to the bone building his career, only to die coughing up blood, and still couldn’t compete with the protagonist’s undeserved halo.

The villain has it so bad that even the System can’t stand it, so it specially applies for a transmigration-into-a-book perk on his behalf. Before transmigrating into a book, Xue Jiu swears to himself that he’ll make up for his past humiliation, become the protagonist himself, and never let anyone outshine him again.

But he never expected to become the personal attendant of the disgraced crown prince, who is confined deep in the palace: a frail eunuch of just fifteen, with red lips and pearly white teeth.

·

When Xue Jiu first enters the palace, he’s short on money for bribes, so the eunuch in charge assigns him to serve the crown prince in the Cold Palace. He’s clumsy and doesn’t know how to put on palace robes or boil water, let alone that he needs to take careful care of himself after being castrated...

Fortunately, the crown prince takes pity on him. Seeing how helpless he is, he patiently teaches him everything by hand.

The young attendant doesn’t know that what he’s doing is a capital offense. Even while delirious with a high fever, he keeps saying he’ll repay the prince’s kindness by helping His Highness return to the Eastern Palace.

With only one step left before he could fake his death and escape, Xie Yizhao abandons all his previous plans and reclaims the throne of crown prince. All so he can pave a bright, smooth road to power for his ambitious little eunuch.
