Xue Yuchen had just one goal from birth: take out Yue Congzhou, the young master of some sect eight hundred li away, and the male lead.
Then take his place.
With an ambition like that, he was clearly the kind of villain destined for great things.
He knew exactly what he was.
After seeing countless villains meet tragic ends, Xue Yuchen came to one conclusion:
Don't talk too much, and don't go soft. If you can get someone else to do the killing, stay out of the spotlight. Most importantly, you have to become the male lead's favorite person.
So he kept close to the male lead from the start.
Wearing the most innocent, gentle expression he could muster, he constantly set traps for the male lead. His record was so sordid that, to kill the fellow standing in the way of his conquest of the martial world, he stopped at nothing.
He even thought of offering himself up. At last, he killed the male lead and successfully took his place.
But seven days later, the male lead came back to life and pinned him against the coffin lid as he fake-cried so hard he could barely breathe.
"You haven't been good."
"You must be punished."
