The Ruthless Dao Master Always Thinks I Love Him

[Complete] Next story: My Sister-in-Law and Me. Please add it to your wishlist.

Su Huahua is a demon who falls for good looks at first sight, but may not develop feelings even after spending a long time with someone.

One day, she picked up a husband on the cheap.

Su Huahua wasted no time, tricking him into kisses and cuddles.

Then she wiped her mouth and moved on to the next, better one.

But who could tell her why Jiang Yubai, the mighty cultivator of Yantian Sect, the foremost sect of the immortal world, and a powerful figure who had cultivated the Heartless Dao all the way to the Deity Transformation Realm, looked exactly like the cheap husband she had dumped?

Even worse, Su Huahua was suddenly told she had to help Jiang Yubai overcome his tribulation. Uh... How was she supposed to do that?

The Hanging Ghost: Make him fall in love, then treat him like trash. Help him clear his heart and mind, and then he can ascend.

Su Huahua had all the basic qualities of a demon. Seducing people was second nature to her.

So when the aloof, proud, coldhearted, taciturn Jiang Yubai said he wanted to be with her, she heartlessly did as she pleased and dumped him.

But who could tell her? She had been promised that he would attain the divine path and ascend in no time. So why had

Jiang Yubai turned into a demon?

-

Jiang Yubai's emotions had long been dormant, and he was only one tribulation away from the supreme realm when he met the little demon who was always tricking him.

She had a silver tongue and was forever repeating her heartfelt declarations of love for him.

Again and again, he gave in to foolish desires.

To become cultivation partners with her, he forsook the divine path and gave up all his cultivation, leaving only a precarious Golden Core to protect him.

But how could someone who was always full of lies have a sincere heart?

No one in the cultivation world knew that the jade-like, handsome Immortal Lord Yubai had nearly lost his soul on his wedding night.

But how could that be fair? She had tempted him, yet still hoped to walk away unscathed?

"Even if I become a demon, you can only stay by my side!"

Reader's Guide:

1. A cold, abstinent, obsessive flower on a lofty peak falls from her pedestal.

2. Everything in the early story sets up the male lead's heartbreak and redemption arc. If that's not for you, please read something else.

3. The author is terrible at writing blurbs. This one is exceptionally bad.

4. Please don't insult the author or the female lead. Anything else is fair game. If necessary, summon the author to join in and help everyone vent (just kidding).

Blurb for the new story, My Sister-in-Law and Me:

A brooding, scheming younger brother-in-law and a sweet, gentle widowed sister-in-law

In her previous life, Shen Youyi was thrown into prison and met a hasty end.

Reborn, she was determined to avoid disaster and stay alive.

But corrupt officials ruled, and the world had long since fallen into chaos. After much deliberation, she decided that only the Lu residence in Bianjing could shelter her.

But Lu Mian, to whom she had been engaged since childhood, had already died in battle. Thinking of Lu Mian's younger brother, Lu Zhan, Shen Youyi finally set pen to paper, carefully composing a letter addressed to Madam Lu:

"Since Shushu and Mianlang cannot fulfill their love, I intend to enter your household and remain chaste in his memory."

What she didn't know was that as soon as the letter reached Bianjing, it went straight into Lu Zhan's hands.

-

The Lu family of Bianjing was a distinguished clan of loyal subjects and heroes. No one had expected them to produce a corrupt official: Lu Zhan.

Lu Zhan ruled the household alone. He harmed court officials, abused his power, violated the law, and committed every manner of evil. He looked down coldly at those kneeling at his feet.

But one day, a young woman surnamed Shen arrived at his residence, declaring that she intended to remain chaste for his deceased elder brother. She had delicate brows and a lovely face, skin as smooth as jade, and moist, cherry-red lips.

And... a slender waist that looked as if it would snap at the slightest touch.

What a pity she wasn't his.

-

If she wasn't his, did that mean he couldn't take her?

-

He was a filthy, despicable man, yet he still dared to yearn for the only light in his darkness.

Theme: Keep striving to live, and never give up hope.
