Master Doesn't Want to Be Locked Away [Reverse Transmigration into a Book]

Abandoned story. Read at your own risk!

[Top's perspective] Lin Qin, who had fallen into the demonic path, thought his master's newly accepted disciple was a hopelessly naive fool, just as stupid as he himself had been back then. It made him want to grab the kid by the head and force him to face the cruelty of human nature!

So he took on the role of a sinister, cunning villain and secretly began setting traps for his junior brother.

But after his schemes were exposed, the little junior brother didn't have the great awakening Lin Qin had hoped for or stop trusting people. Instead, he charged headlong down the path of repaying evil with kindness.

Furious, Lin Qin wanted to grab him by the neck and shake him until all the water in his brain came out.

Lin Qin: This makes no sense! Isn't the cold-faced, warm-hearted senior brother way better? Why hang yourself from this crooked tree of mine?

And did anyone even ask if the tree wanted that? Damn it!

[Bottom's perspective] As the top disciple of Sword Attendant Mountain, Yin Yue knew he had a senior fellow disciple who had fallen into the demonic path when the sect leader took him as a disciple.

This senior brother was a demonic cultivator, yet he neither killed and pillaged nor did evil. Instead, he often protected disciples of the righteous path. After being rescued by him several times, Yin Yue stumbled upon his senior brother's other secret identity.

Yin Yue: I'll pretend I don't know.

So, under the sympathetic and pitying gazes of the entire cultivation world, Yin Yue calmly played up his beautiful, powerful, tragic, and saintly persona, continuing to throw himself at his "scumbag top."

Yin Yue: Thanks for asking. Quietly making a fortune is so satisfying!
