After Faking My Death, I Drove My Disciple Mad

The righteous paragon I raised with my own hands became the Demon Lord who most wants to imprison me in Haitang

Xie Zhi is widely recognized in the cultivation world as a mad villain.

Others prove their Dao through cultivation. He ascends through sheer wickedness, using all eight hundred of his schemes to make life difficult for the cultivation world. Today he blows up the Fufeng Sect's treasury; tomorrow he digs up the ancestors' graves of the Zhuji Sect. Yet his luck is so strong that even the Heavenly Dao gives him a pass.

One day, Xie Zhi was bored, so he adopted a boy with exceptional spiritual roots as his disciple. He planned to train him to become the greatest cultivator after himself, making his dream of "fighting myself" come true.

Everyone knows the fastest cultivation path in the world is the Heartless Dao.

To cultivate the Heartless Dao, one must become completely disillusioned with love.

So Xie Zhi sent the boy to be raised by a prominent righteous sect, making sure he grew up to be a righteous disciple who hated evil. Then he got close to him, cared for him, guided him, taught him to cultivate, and made the boy love and depend on him with all his heart.

Then, when his disciple went out on his first mission, Xie Zhi sent him to kill the Demon Realm's greatest demon, the lord of the Wuding Realm.

His disciple duly stabbed the lord to death on his throne, never realizing that the face beneath the mask was Xie Zhi's. Xie Zhi obligingly spat up a couple of mouthfuls of blood, tipped his head to the side, and died.

Xie Zhi watched his disciple stand before the "corpse" as if struck by lightning, panicked, shocked, disbelieving, and wishing he could kill himself... His gleeful laughter was loud enough for the Immortal Realm, fifty thousand miles above, to hear.

After being psychologically tormented by Xie Zhi again and again, his disciple finally cut off love and feelings (not really!!). His heart became twisted!

One day, he pinned Xie Zhi to a chair, his eyes dark as ink, his expression wicked and wild. "Master, have you heard of a place called Haitang?"

"Battle-worn soldier top x mad, beautiful poisonous vine bottom"

[He returns, having crossed a mountain of corpses in the apocalypse, just to tame this bloodstained rose]

When Xiang Jun opened his eyes, he was kneeling at the feet of the Qiao family's daughter, warm foot-washing water splashed across his face.

"A useless man belongs on all fours like a dog." His fiancée kicked over the basin, her crystal nails digging into his scarred brow.

Everyone said Xiang Jun was the Qiao family's worst arranged-marriage match:

His mother-in-law cursed him as a lowly commoner,

while his father-in-law sneered, "A special forces soldier? You're nothing but the Qiao family's guard dog."

Until the alien invaders' spacecraft hovered over the city.

Monsters ripped open the nobles' throats, while Xiang Jun snapped the spine of a mutated beast with his bare hands. Blood dripped along the grooves of his combat boots. Wherever he went, mountains of corpses were left behind.

The people who had once bullied him crawled over and clutched at his trouser leg. Xiang Jun crushed their fingers. "Who's the dog now?"

But when he turned around, a young man threw himself into his arms.

The Qiao family's illegitimate son, Qiao Ye, was covered in blood. Beneath his white shirt he concealed the knife he'd just used to slit someone's throat.

The most sinister and cruel villain in the whole story lifted his face and brushed his bloodstained lips against Xiang Jun's Adam's apple. "Brother-in-law, you look so good when you kill."

[Warnings]

★ The beautiful madman's many-layered schemes:

He kisses his lover in front of the whole family.

He's like a puppy who keeps returning after his lover abandons him again and again.

When Xiang Jun's powers go berserk, he straddles him and says, "Kill me, or... kill me."

★ The top is a walking dose of testosterone:

His defined abs are wrapped in military bandages.

He can carry the sickly villain over his shoulder with one arm.

When the truth of the apocalypse is revealed, Qiao Ye laughs with brazen, bewitching confidence. "Actually, I could destroy the world with a single thought, but brother-in-law taught me..."

He licks the blood from the corner of Xiang Jun's mouth. "If you've made a mess, you have to clean it up yourself."

[Reader's Guide]

1. Brother-in-law romance. The bottom has a sick, openly professed love and possessiveness toward the top.

2. The top is a straight-as-an-arrow man both before and after he transmigrates, but the mad beauty forcibly turns him gay.

3. Both leads have powers. The bottom has mental-control abilities and a mutated fire ability.
