Completed work: I Got a Substitute Script as the Scum Bottom] [Blurb] Zhuang Lanxu was an elder of the Jishangxu Sect, elegant and peerlessly beautiful, as bright as the moon in the night sky. But behind that flawless facade, he was a scoundrel who cruelly abused his disciples. And the disciple he tormented was Xue Hanwu, the future Demon Lord who would slaughter their sect and kill Zhuang Lanxu with his sword. One night, Zhuang Lanxu awoke from a dream with someone else inside him. The transmigrated Zhuang Lanxu had failed his previous mission and had his memories erased. This time, he needed to stop Xue Hanwu, the male lead of the story, from turning evil. He knew that to accomplish this, he would have to treat Xue Hanwu well in every possible way. But then he realized something was off. He fussed over Xue Hanwu and kept him warm. When Xue Hanwu was made to kneel in the pouring rain as punishment, Zhuang Lanxu gave up his umbrella to stay by his side. Xue Hanwu didn't even raise his phoenix eyes. He pushed him under the eaves and said, "The rain is heavy and the night is cold. Does Little Martial Uncle want to get sick? A-Wu couldn't bear to see you do that." Zhuang Lanxu had been planning to fake an illness to fool the boy, and was stunned. How had Xue Hanwu figured it out? He braved every danger for Xue Hanwu, standing with him through every trial in the illusion. Xue Hanwu shielded him and raised a barrier. "You're only flesh and blood, Little Martial Uncle. Do you want to get hurt protecting me? It would truly break A-Wu's heart." Zhuang Lanxu had just been about to use the same trick and get himself hurt on purpose. How had Xue Hanwu known again? After having his lines stolen from him over and over, Zhuang Lanxu was completely baffled. It wasn't until he brought over a plate of awful chestnut cakes that Xue Hanwu finally spoke, his eyes bloodshot. "I haven't tasted this familiar flavor in a lifetime. Little Martial Uncle, please don't abandon A-Wu again." - Xue Hanwu had been hated by everyone his whole life. When he was reborn, he discovered that Zhuang Lanxu, the man who had tormented him, had changed. He had laughed off Zhuang Lanxu's sincerity, never imagining that Zhuang Lanxu would die for him, leaving not even a whole corpse behind. Consumed by a single thought, he turned into a demon and destroyed the world once more, only to be granted another chance to start over. This time, he would never repeat his past mistakes. He would never let go of Zhuang Lanxu's hand again. - Reading guide: 1. Couple: scheming, reborn martial nephew gong (Xue Hanwu) x elegant, transmigrated-into-a-book martial uncle shou (Zhuang Lanxu) 2. The gong is reborn twice; the shou is the same person throughout. 3. The story centers on the question, "Why can you predict my prediction?" [Coming next] A Sword Through My Dao Companion's Chest, and He Became the Heavenly Dao Lu Zangya, an elder of the Xi Yuzong, was famous for being both crazy and foolish. He was breathtakingly beautiful, unrivaled beneath the heavens, but while his cultivation was good enough, his brains were always lacking. Everyone in the world laughed at him. The only person who showed him a trace of warmth was his sickly dao companion, Shen Lichuan, as cold and smooth as a piece of jade. His senior brother told him that fish from the frigid pool would help Shen Lichuan's illness. So, in the dead of winter, he lay on the ice for three days and brought Shen Lichuan a silver fish. "A-Li, eat." The sect leader told him that if he killed the evil great demon at the foot of the mountain and took its gall, it would cure Shen Lichuan's illness. So he went alone with his sword, returning covered in blood and wounds, and presented Shen Lichuan with the fresh gall. "This is good for A-Li's health!" Others laughed at his foolishness and tricked him, saying that if he killed his husband, he could ascend to immortality with Shen Lichuan and have their names entered in the same register. He believed them. So he drove his sword through Shen Lichuan's chest. He proved his own path to immortality. And restored Shen Lichuan to his place as the Heavenly Dao. Shen Lichuan descended like a god, plucked a fragment of Lu Zangya's lifeblood soul, and cast it away. From then on, Lu Zangya was no longer crazy or foolish. Yet through the long years, the only thing he remembered was Shen Lichuan's calm words: "Thank you for accompanying me this far. From now on, we owe each other nothing." - Reading guide: 1. Couple: cold and detached Heavenly Dao gong (Shen Lichuan) x formerly foolish, now sweet-hearted shou (Lu Zangya) 2. Neither is truly a scoundrel. The shou was foolish because he was missing part of his lifeblood soul, while the gong became heartless and emotionless after regaining his status as the Heavenly Dao. 3. A double crematorium. [Pre-release] After Saving the Villain, I Found Out I Was His Nemesis According to legend, the great villain Qi Fengyan was cruel and merciless. Everywhere he went, rivers of blood flowed and corpses littered the ground. Only a nine-tailed spirit fox could seal him forever in the Huling Formation, by cutting off eight of its tails. Xie Shuangchi never expected to transmigrate into the story at its ending. Now he was sitting opposite Qi Fengyan, who had had both eyes gouged out and both legs broken. He couldn't guess who he was supposed to be, and could barely control his ears and tail, which kept twitching. Unable to leave the Huling Formation, he struck up a conversation with the miserable villain in front of him. Qi Fengyan gave a bitter smile and asked hoarsely, "Aren't you afraid of me?" Xie Shuangchi had read the original book and knew Qi Fengyan's past. "The world forced you into this. You were only trying to protect yourself. If those people wanted to take your life, why shouldn't you fight back?" Qi Fengyan laughed bitterly. "But the world doesn't know that." Looking at the lonely, heartbroken Qi Fengyan before him, Xie Shuangchi resolved to heal his wounds. Every bit of cultivation he had, he gave to Qi Fengyan to heal his legs. He even nearly gouged out his own eyes to give them to Qi Fengyan. Qi Fengyan loved him, and desperately hoped to see his face once his sight was restored. He once asked with a smile, "What would you do if my face were hideous?" Qi Fengyan swore on his very blood and bones, "Even if your face were as ugly as a demon's, I would never abandon you." But the moment Qi Fengyan saw his true face, he gripped Xie Shuangchi by the throat, not caring at all that Xie Shuangchi was pale from exhausting his cultivation to help him. "If you meant to kill me, why pretend to be so compassionate and save me?" Xie Shuangchi felt as if he had fallen into a freezing pool. Then he suddenly remembered: he was the nine-tailed spirit fox who had read the original book. - Reading guide: 1. Couple: pitiful villain gong (Qi Fengyan) x amnesiac, softhearted, unlucky nine-tailed fox shou (Xie Shuangchi) 2. A double crematorium. Theme: Join hands with the one you love to build a better world and seek your true self.
